Speaking of Cardinal Gibbons, tho
Irish cardinal paid him a glowing

no American would care to spend tn

The Irish cardinal expressed tn
opinion that the question of sending
a note to the powers protesting agains

Italian government should be left L

Field Labor for Women.
AMERICAN WOMEN BETTER OFF THAN
THE WOMEN OF EUROPE.

Statistics prove that there are larger
numbers of women compelled to till the
soil in Europe than in America. In
some countries of Europe women do a
large part OF the agricultural work
This is thought to be degrading and
showing a poor state of civilization. At
the same time there is no doubt that
if our American women could live
more in the open air they would be
stronger and healthier Young girls
are often crowded into poorly ventilated
schools. Later in life they suffer from
backache, spine-s ches and headaches
They are not fitted to take up the bur
den of married life
A woman does not have to be bust
ness woman to get tired. Many women
have housekeeping duties and the care
OF children which ", 5 them out
makes them nervous. Our advice to all
such women is to lie down in the middle
of the day for a short period, on the
fiat of the back, without pillows or sup
ports, and completely relaxing, endeavor
to forget worries. More important
than all is to get at the root of the
troubles. A garden full of wesds will
not grow beautiful vegetables, fruit or
flowers In the same way woman can
not look well who has allowed her con-
stitution to be undermined by the weak
nesses, pains and aches which so many
American women are prone to. To get
at the real source of her trouble, a
woman should consult good specialist
in the diseases of women. Perhaps the
physician who has had the widest prac-
tice in this class of disease in all the
United States. is Dr. R V Pierce, Chief
consulting physician to the Invalids
Hotel and Surgical Institute, Of Buffalo,
n. Y. You can get a medical opinion
of your case from him free of charge,
and your letter will be treated in the
strictest confidence. For the majority
of women suffering from those distress
ing pains and drains which come upon
her periodically, there is nothing better
than DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
Many mothers of families in the United
States have reason TO be grateful TO the
person who recommended Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. This is a medi-
cine specially prescribed for diseases of
Svouankind Il does not cure eczema,
catarrh in all its forms, nor heart dis

Point to the Panama Policy as a Refu-
tation of His Offensive
Utterances."

DALLAS, Tex, Dec. Sat a meet
ing of r. E. Lee Camp. United Con-
federate Veterans. the following reso-
lutions were passed and a copy ordered
TO be sent to President Roosevelt, at
Washington; the President OF Colon
bia, at Bogota, and to United States
Senator Charles A. Culberson, of
Texas:
Resolved, first. That we tender to
the Daughters of the COnfederacy, late
" assembled in State convention, the
congratulations of this camp for their
prompt and feIicitous message TO
President Roosevelt on his strenuous
haste in the recognition of the republic
of Panama in its late act OF secession
as a vindication OF the South, which
the President and his party have here
tofore denounced as anarchy.
Second, That this action of the
President is in acute contrast to his
repeated offensive utterances on his re-
cent tour regarding the action Of the
South for a similar assertion of the
right of local government, in de-
claring to Union veterans that but for
them we would have had no govern
ment."
