TRYING TO END STRIKE.
Proposition for Arbitration if the
Men Win First Return to Work
A Ruse Feared.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa Sept. IT,
This was the tenth day Of the miners
strike, and as yet there is no indica-
tlon Of surrender or concession.
Various propositions for settlement
BY arbitration have been put forward
by persons not directly connected
with the mining business, but thus far
practically no progress has been
made In this direction. The operators
are reported to have agreed on a
proposition to arbitrate the strike
question II the men will return to
work. Tue United Mine Workers
leaders tonight warned the men
that this is ruse on the part of the
coal companies to get the strikers
back In their control. Once back In
the collier1es and surrounded by
state troops ana deputies, they cay,
the men win be virtually deprived of
their liberty and forced to continue
work.
A most noteworthy feature Of the
strike is the remarkably good be-
havior Of the strikers up to this time,
especially when II is considered that
the claim is made that over 1o0,o 900
mine workers are idle in the an
thracite region. There have, OF
course, been few disturbances, bat
none of q character at all serious,
with the exception Of the one at
Shenandoah on Friday last, when q
striker was killed by the sheriff's
posse.

That in addressing Mrs. Pinkham

"a woman whose experience in treat
ing woman's ills Is greater than that
Of any living person-male or female.
A woman can talk freely TO wo-
man when II is revolving to relate her
private troubles to n man.
Many women suffer In silence and
drift along from bad to worse, know
ing full well that they should have
Immediate assistance, but a natural
modesty impels them TO shrink from
exposing themselves 70 the questions
and probable examination of even
their family physician. 1t Is unneces-
sary. Without money or price You can
consult a woman, whose knowledge
from actual experience Is unequaled.
Women suffering from any form Of
female weakness are invited to freely
communicate with Mrs. Pinkham at

All letters are received, opened,

Out of the vast volume of experience
which she has to draw from, it is
more than possible that she has gained
