That's the personal question g woman asks herself when she reads of the cures of wonanly diseases by the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
 Why shouldn't it cure hero
 Is it a complicated case? Thousands of such cases have been cured by Fa- vorite Prescription" Is 1t q condition which local doctors have declared in- curable? Among the hundreds of thou sands of sick women cured by the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription there are great many who were pronounced incurable by local doctors. Wonders have been worked by "Favorite Pre- scription" in the cure of irregularity, weakening drains, inflammation, ulcera- ton and female weakness. It always helps. It almost always cures.
 rTllree years ago. writes Mrs. John Graham of 2oIS Plumb Street, (FrankfordJ Philadelphia Pa rI had very bad attack of dropsy which left inc with heart trouble and also very weak back At times was so bad that did not know what to do with myself My children advised to take your Favorite Prescription, but had been taking much medicine from the doc tor that I discouraged with everything. l came to Philadelphia two years ago, and pick ing up of your little books one day began to read what your medicine had done for others. determined to try it myself.

If this country fingers much longer over the building of an interoceanic
 canal it may find ANOTHER that none will be INTEROCEANIC needed, or rather ROUTE. that one has been
 supplied, which will be the same thing, for one interoceanic canal is enough for the business of one continent The action of the senate in the passage of the Spooner bill, while it is in the direction of an isthmian waterway, has thrown the door open to innumerable delays.
 A rival has now come to the front, and Mexico makes bid for an inter- oceanic canal to be built on Mexican territory. This new projeetI under the name of "E1 Canal Interoceanic Mex ico,'' has been promoted by Col. Angel NJ Carrillo de Albcrnez and Juan Pablo del Rio, and the report on the same has been submitted to the Mexican govern ment.
 
 manager" scheme, and through Senator Morgan our government has been asked to join hands with the sister re- public to undertake the work together. under consideration before the Eu- ropean geographic congress, which was held in Paris, but was by that congress condemned as being unsuited for the construction of a canal. By this route they decided that no less than 12S locks would have to be constructed, and the actual time necessary for crossing from the Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific ocean would be at the least fourteen days.
 By the latest proposed route, how ever, say the promoters, there will be no need for one single lock- and only eleven days will be required to cross from coast to coast. After having made considerable surveys on the isthmus of Tehuantepec, somewhat to the south of the River Coatzacoalcos, which river had formerly been decided upon as the point of entrance in the Gulf of Mexico, they have conceived the idea of running a canal through the states of Tabasco, Oaxoca and Chiapas.
 By this route it is proposed to use as base for their operations several of the larger rivers running through these states, i. e., the Grijalva, Mescalapa, Santa Ana, Ostuta and others. The eastern terminus of the canal will be the Barra de Santa, at the entrance of the lake known as the Laguna de Santa Ana, which is situated some forty-eight kilometers to the south of the Barra de Coatzacoalcos, while the boca Barra de San Francisco, at the entrance of the Laguna Inferior, into which the river Ostuta empties, will be the western terminus of the same.
 It is estimated that the entire length of this proposed waterway will be about PIT kilometers, and eleven hours will be needed to traverse it. In addi- tion to this the climate, it is claimed,

City councilmen are only human, and
 have weakened, just THE as we believed they WATERMELON. would, when, last
 winter, they ruled the watermelon wagons off the streets. The councilmen were brave then. The watermelon was not here to say word came to be confronted by water melon it gave way and that luscious fruit has been rehabilitated. The watermelon wagons are not only to be welcomed, as they have been in Phoe- nix from time immemorial.
 There is no other such insidious as sailant of the morals of men. We have known persons who led honest lives during every season of the year but one. But in that one they invariably gave way to the crime of larceny, and then the rest of the year was spent as the rest of the year before had been, in atonement for the crimes committed under the seductive influence of the watermelon.
 The council has endeavored to veil it's surrender under what it call a per mit'' allowing watermelons the same privileges as those enjoyed by "other vegetable wagons" Who said that the watermelon is vegetable? The coun- cil has adopted that term of insult to ing people. Everybody knows, even the councilmen know, that the water melon is not vegetable, but the most delicious of fruits. No man has the hardihood to call the orange a vege- table, and still less is the watermelon one. Some misinformed people believe that the mephitis or American skunk is a cousin of the house cat, but he is in no way related to that aristocratit animal save in that both are members of the animal kingdom. So is the horse
 
 much a skunk as the watermelon is q common vegetable.
 In its so-called permit" in recogni- ton of the watermelon the council orders, or rather pretends to order, that the wagons must be kept moving The law, even city ordinance, does not cont emDIaTa the DerfOrnlan nce of an impossibility. 4 watermelon waGun. after the populace has been apprised of ts presence, would have no chance to move until it had been emptied. and then it would naturally be moved after another load
 That permit of the council is noth- ing but badly disguised prayer to the watermelon wagons to come back.

CELEBRATING THE ELECTION.
Custom Not Known to the Washing
ton Bows

The election brings several features of
amusement which obtain elsewhere, partici-
pated in by the youth of other cities, es-
pecially in New York, but which are denied
our own young hopefuls,' remarked an
elderly resident this morning. "One OF
them is building bonfires Those who have
never lived in New York cannot appreciate
this custom, and the privilege given the
boys and participated in by men. and also
the respective political ward organizations
to build fires of any size and number upon
election night the one night in the year,
undisturbed by the police. No hindrance
being placed upon the boys, they collect and
store away for weeks in advance old bar
reIs, boxes, cordwood and anything that
will burn. These are brought out on cleo
| ton night piled in the middle of the street,
set fire and kept going for hours. The
entire city is lighted up by these bontires
in its streets, and there are thousands and
thousands of them, many of enormous size
When 1 was young wooden basement doors.
hatchways, shutters and even wagons were
thrown upon the flames, but this vandalism
has subsidized.
THE custom originated so many years
ago that it cannot be traced, but probably
developed into such universal practice in
the big city, where at other times fires
are allowed in the streets, by reason of the
absence of the police from patrol duty.
The streets were, therefore in full posses
sion of the boys, and even where the police
were on active duty. no interference would
be offered unless some of the more reckless
youths on the east and west sides attempt
| ed to tear down an old frame house, or the
| like, and burn 1t. Thousands of theatrical
| billboards were torn from their fastenings
! to celebrate the one night the boys of New
| York own the town as regards illumina-
| ton.
Just before election day in the metropo-
| lis an order was issued prohibiting the
burning of bontires in the streets which
were paved with asphalt, as the street
| cleaning department found that 1t cost
about $4,000 to repair the asphalt after
election night by reason of the holes burned
therein.
when repairs to the surface of the
asphalt streets cost $4,000 for a single
nights fun, more than Is spent In a year
In . large-siZed town, the extent of the
damage done and the countless number of
