NERVOUS DEPRESSION.
IA TALK WITH MRS. rIsxHAMl

A woman with the blues is very un-
comfortable person. She is illogical,
unhappy and frequently hysterical.
The condition of the mind known as
"the blues" nearly always, with wo-
men, results from diseased organs OF
generation.
1t is q source of wonder that in this
age OF advanced medical science, any
person should still believe that mere
force OF will and determin nation will
overcome depressed spirits and nerv-
business in women. These troubles are
indications of disease.
Every woman who doesn't under
stand her condition should write to
LYNN, Mass, to Mrs. Pinlsham for her
advice. Her advice is thorough COM
mon sense. and is the counsel OF a
learned woman of great experience.
Read the story of Mrs. T. S. BENNETT,
Westphalia, Kansas, as told in the fol.
lowing letter:
DEAR Mrs. PISKHAM:-I have suf-
fered for over two years with falling,
enlargement and liberation of the
womb, and this spring, being in such
a weakened condition, caused me TO
Gow for nearly six months. Some time
ago, urged by friends, wrote to you
for advice. After using the treatment
which you advised for q short time,
that terrible flow stopped.

ALGER AND MILES RUMOR.
A Washington Di.patrh Says The secretary
of War aud Comm ,nd-r OF the
Army Are tu Retire

Washington, Jan. 23 The rumor
has been revived that Secretary of
War Alger is soon to retire from the
cabinet Ex-Gov. Merriam, of Minne-
sofa, is mentioned as his successor 1t
is said the president is weared OF the
squabbles and scandals in the war de-
partment and would feel much relieved
by the retirement of Secretary Aiger.
Gen. Miles will also be relieved from
the command of the army in the near
future, according to reports. The rea-
son assigned is that Miles does not
work harmoniously with the admins
tration. With these men out of the
way, Gen Eigan probably relegated
into obscurity by means of the court
martial, the administration will wipe
out all the army scandals giving the
president chance to return to the i'm.

scarcely responsible for the language
he used in reply. He will refer 10 the

by Gen. Miles, as the primary cause Of

manufacturers and greater part Of the
financial interests of the cities OF Oma-
ha and South Omaha against any yov-
ernment recognition or appropriation
for an exposition to be held at Omaha,
Neb., during the year 1899. The ground
upon which the protest is based is that
the exposition would result in an in.
jury to the business of the signers,
would detract from the advantages
heretofore secured by the Transmissis-
sippi exposition, would prove a detri-
ment to the best interests of the state
and that it would tend to dissolve the
