MEDICINAL

human beings, and spared the woman
cast to them in the arena. It is astonish-
ing how little sympathy women have
for women. In the home the mistress
sees the maid with the signs of suffering
she recognizes 80 well, but she does not
tighten the sick girl's load by touch OF
her finger. In the store the torewoman
sees the pallor and exhaustion which
mark womanly weakness, but allows
nothing for them. 1t is work or quit.
Doctor Pierce's Favorite Prescription
makes weak women strong and sick
women well, by curing the womanly
diseases which undermine the health
and sap the strength. "Favorite Pre-
scription" establishes regularity, dries
weakening drains, heals Inflammation
and liberation, and cures female weak
ness.
sWhen I first commenced using DR.. Pierce's
medicines writes Mrs. George A. Strong, OF
Cansevoort Saratoga Co.. n. y. "I was suffer
ing from female weakness, q disagreeable drain,
bearing g-down pains, weak and tired feeling all
the time Dragged around IN vr that way ISr

used one bottle Of DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy.
Now feel like a new person. can't thank you
enough for your kind advice and the good your
medicine has done me"
UFavorite Prescription makes weak
women strong, sick women well. Ac-
cept no substitute for the medicine which
works wonders for weak women.
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are the
most desirable laxative for delicate
women.

HE MISSED THE DATES.
Delayed Trains Prevented Governor
from Reaching Destination.

Governor Stanley is unexpectedly in
Topeka today. He was billed to be in
Sedan, but owing to late trains he could
ssot make connections and reach there
Wednesday night the governor and W.
J. Bailey spoke in Salina- He expected
to take a Missouri Pacific train out of
Salina yesterday morning and go to
Ottawa, where he was scheduled to
speak yesterday afternoon. From there
he was to go on TO Kansas City and
catch a train for Sedan last night The
Missouri Pacific train was over three
hours late into Salina. which would
have made him get to Ottawa too late
to fill his enga cement, so he gave that
up and came On to Topeka to do some
work in his office. He rushed through
with his work and then went to take :
Rock Island train to Kansas City. but
that too was SO late that it would NOT
catch his Sedan train, so the Sedan
date also had to be Cancelled. The gov
ernor will leave tonight for Elk City.

they would think that their congress
sional sponsors were playing double and
would say things that would look nasty
in print. If Roosevelt had forced things
to an issue he would have made q ser
ious break in the Republican party.
There are those who say that the presi-
dent took counsel: others believe he

quently withdrew their offensive candi-
dates for federal appointments got them
placed comfortably either in state Of
fees or in business jobs. and before
haying time nearly all the friction was
over.
To-day every statesman in Washing
ton knows better than to indorse a man
with a record for a place under the
government at Washington. Bad men
seek state and municipal offices, and
don't bother their congressman. The
moral atmosphere of the nation has been
purified with ozone and yet violent
display of thunder and lightning has
been averted. 1t was all done as smooth
ly as pouring goose grease through a
quill. And still there are those who say
that Roosevelt lacks tact Perhaps they
are right. Certainly the president has
not the oleaginous gentility of a conf
dence man. He has only so much tact
as becomes a straightforward, blunt
spoken, courageO gentleman with q
soft heart and a hard head, who is go
ing to do right or do something. Prob
ably Senator Platt, of New York, for
instance. thinks that Roosevelt is lit
orally disrupting the Republican party,
casting its CORY members to the four
quarters of the globe, because certain
New York appointments are not made.
Probably other offended persons see
in Roosevelt kind of masculine shrew
who merely storms and frets without
purpose OF discretion. But it is a
curious fact that while there were four
Republican party presidential nomina-
ton a year ago, today Roosevelt stands
practically without opposition. If he is
bull in a china shop he seems to be
well equipped with pneumatic cushions
at the dangerous points. And prObabl y
the thing that has saved Roosevelt is his
laugh. He refuses to play tragedy.
Time and again he has punctured the
cant and soDhiStry of an argumenta tive
statesman with a twinkling grin and q
gurgling, oh, come now, senatori' Only
once or twice. as in the case of Senator
Burton, of Kansas, has the president
shown his teeth.
Roosevelt has kept the peace with Sen
ator Tom Plat and Senator Quay. He
has made friends with Senator Hanna
and though there have been contentious
ami differences during the year last past
the two men are too much alike and have
too much twitch in the corners of theii
mouths and too much curvature of tbs
vest to quarrel seriously. After mar

William Traverse Jerome. New Yorks
district attorney, in addressing laboring
men on the occasion of the opening of
the new hall of the East Side House
Settlement last week, scolded labor I'M
ions for tempting to keep men from
working who are outside the organiza-
lions. In the course of his remarks he
said: There are no more shrewd and
hard headed long seeing men than the
laborers of New York. and if it were
put to their vote they would over
whelmingly condemn the cowardly, un-
American proposition that a man may
not work unless he has Joined a labor
organization. I tell you II you arouse
capital it viii crush you. You can't
trust your leaders. No one else can
trust them. They will sell you for the
price, and YOU know 1t. When labor
is honestly and decently led. we will see
an era of clean politics such as we have
never seen before" And yet John
Mitchell president of the Mine Work
ers' union is a living evidence of the
falsity of Mr.. Jeromes words.

A WORD TO THE WISE

Having tried moral suasion on the
coal operators to bring about an arbi-
tration of the coal strike and failed
Senator Hanna is ready for a fight if
his recent reports of his utterances in
New York can be relied upon Speak
ing of the coal barons he is quoted as
saying:
These people do not know what sort
of volcano they are living over" I
can tell them something they ought to
know. Ninety per cent of the American
people sympathize with the strikers and
are against the operat tors in this fight.
If the strikers need more money than
organized labor can raise to carry on
the battle the people at large are will
ing to subscribe. I know of business
men who are willing to contribute large
checks rather than to see the men
starved into submission. They believe
that it would be a disgrace to American
manhood if Baer and his associates
were able to win the victory through
the brute force Of capital held in stub
born hands.
IF this strike is still on when con-
gress meets, Baer and his friends will
hear something drop. Four-fifths of all
the men elected to the house this year
will be pledged to take drastic action
against the coal monopoly There may
be some difficulties in getting at the
question. but the way will be found
The railway presidents to stand out and
say they have nothing to arbitrate and
no concessions to make are doing more
harm to the Republican party and
breeding more discomfort and socialism
than anything else that ever was known
IN this country"
Senator Hanna's past record does not
warrant the conclusion that he is a
buffer. When he talks he usually
means business and his word goes a
long way in the congress of the United
States.
