That old copybook maxim finds its
most forceful application in the waste OF
vitality, which is called "burning the
candle at both ends.n A woman is
often tempted beyond her strength by
domestic or social demands. Some day
she awakens from this waste Of strength
to the woeful want of it. She has be-
come weak, nervous and miserable.
For weak, nervous, rundown women,
there is no better tonic and nervine than

restores the appetite, quiets the nerves
and gives refreshing sleep. 1t cures
local diseases peculiarly wornanly which
undermine the general health. 1t makes
weak women strong, sick women well.

A peculiar incident occurred in the

one like it has never before occurred in

Mexico City, March PA political
meeting has been summoned for Sunday
morning to designate a candidate of the

soon the mother, wondering that her
daughter does not return, goes TO the
sable TO look for her, finds the door
locked. Possessed with the awful un-
easiness that seizes every white motn-
er of the South when her girls are
long oGt of her sight, she calls to
little boy passing by, helps him to
climb TO the window. He calls the
chlld's name, but there is no reply.

The lock is broken, they enter the sta

child is before them.
That she vas choked into insensibll-

her pretty blue eyes have started from
Their sockets. To be sure that she VIII

Now. go to the widows house; friends
have carried her home; physicians are
about her bed; one is administering
sedative, for on regaining conscious
ness. she became frantic and is in con-
vulsions.
Her two little boys. both younger
than their murdered sister, are sob
bling and begging their mother to speak
to them Friends grouped around her
in tears or awe-stricken silence.
In the whole realm of nature can
there be anything sadder, more pitltul
more narrowing? Do you wonder that
the only brother of that widow, that
her village friends, maddened by such
frnt1zin6 nv SIlPb GOhS and
walls, should wreak savage vengeance?
That black man was hanged SIX
hours after the crime was committed;
was caught in his bloody clothes, con-
fessed his dark deed, said he put the
body in the bag, intending as soon as
it was dark to throw it into the river
near by.
Once more, 1 beg, try to be sorry for
the white women of the South. All
are in danger; from the 4year-old babe
to the grandmother of 65.
Aye, and pity the white men, too,
that are frenzied by such crimes. Rea-
son with them like brothers. Don't
outrage them by calling them brutes,
cruel. bloodthirsty, savage outlaws.
Acknowledge the indisputable truth,
that they are surrounded by half-civ-
ilized blacks, none of them further than
300 years from the lowest form of saw
agery; thousands of them not 100 years
away from the wilds of Africa, for co.
900 slaves were imported from Africa
in the nineteenth century. before the
slave trade was prohibited.
Can they be governed by the same
laws that restrain the Anglo Saxons,
with so many centuries of civilization
behind them? Once more, in your no.
tees and editorials on lynchings, ex-
press some concern, some pity for the
white woman whose ruin or murder
brings them about. She belongs to your
race; she is your countrywoman. Her
ancestors fought in the Revolution, bled
in the War of 1872 died bravely in the
Civil War. She is worth your protec-
ton. Help to save her.
Southern Woman,
