A woman is sick-some disease peculiar to her sex is fast
developing in her system. She goes to her family physician
and tells him a story, but not the whole story.
She holds back something, loses her head, becomes agi-
tated, forgets what she wants to say, and finally conceals
what she ought to have told, and this completely mystifes
the doctor.
Is { a wonder, therefore, that the doctor fails to cure the
disease? Still we cannot blame the woman, for it is very en-
barrassine to detail some of the symptoms of her suffering,
even to her family physician. This is the reason why
hundreds of thousands of women are now In CORE
spondence with Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. To
her they can give every symptom, so that when she is ready

Following we publish a letter from a woman showing the
letters are considered absolutely confidential by
Mrs. Pinkham, and are never published in any way or
manner without the consent in writing of the patient but
hundreds of women are SO grateful for the health which Mrs.
Pinkham and her medicine have been able to restore to them
that they not only consent to publishing their letters, but
write asking that this be done in order that other women
who suffer may be benefited by their experience.

narrowing Details of the Sanar
Slaughter,

Manila, By Cable.-The latest ad-
vices from the island Of Samar give
narrowing details of the slaughter Of
the members Of Company c. Ninth
United States Infantry, last Saturday
at Balig. gan. 1t seems that the prcsi-
dente Of the town, claiming to be
friendly, led the assault in person.
On hearing of the slaughter Colonel
isaac DeRussey, of the Eleventh In
fantry, started for the scene immeii-
ately with a battalion. The body OF
Captain Connell had been tied at the
heels saturated with kerosene and
partly burned. Forty-fiya bodies had
been burned in trench, leaving seven
unaccounted for. The charred rema rs
of many were recovered. In many in
stances the bodies had been badly mu-
tilatel. Three hundred Macabebes VIII
also be dispatched to the scene of the
massacre on beard the Legaspie, which
is delayed by typhoon.

The Roosevelt nature has never fall

finding his wife. He told her what
she already knew-that the anger OF
the mob had been excited by her in
discreet display Of her colors, and
that it would be we'll for her to take in
the flag.
Il shall not do So" declared the
mother Of the President The flag Is
mine; the bOudoir is mine. love the
flag, for it represents my native land.
No ruffian hand shall invade the pri-
vacy of my boudo:r to drag down that
flag, nor shall ruffian shouts force me
to remove it from the window of a
room that is wholly mine Explain
to them that l am a Southern woman; :;
that | love the South Do anything
you like except touch that flag. 1t

And it did not. Theodore Roosevelt
went again to face the crowd. He
made speech, dwelling with finesse
upon his wife's love for her own land
and moulding the mob to his will and
to an Indulgence Of Mrs. Roosevelt in
her desire to fly the flag of her be-
loved Southland.
