Miss Agnes Miller, of Chicago, speaks to young women about dangers of the Menstrual Period -hOw they can avoid pain, suffering and remove the cause.
 "I suffered for six years with dys- mcnorrhea (painful pcriods), so much so that dreaded every month, as I knew it meant three or four days of intense pain. The doctor said this was due to an inAamed condition of the uterine appendages caused by repeated and neglected colds and feet wetting.
 If young girls only realized how dangerous it is to take cold at this critical time, much suffering would be spared them. Thank God for Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Conn pound, that was the only medicine which helped me any. Within three weeks after l started to take 1t, I noticed marked improvement in my general health, and at tho time of my next monthly period the pain had diminished considerably. kept up the treatment and was cured 0 month later. I am like another person since I am in perfect health" ."-MIss AGNES MILLER, 25 Potomac Ave, Chicago, H.

The News of Birmingham

Birmingham, June 26.-(Special )-When the joint conference between miners and operators of the coal mines in this State reconvened this afternoon. having ad- 5ourned Wednesday in order to permit a joint scale committee to wrestle with the two contracts offered by the two sides, proposition was received from the operators and the settlement on a con- tract now is almost certain.
 While there is always a possibility of a slip twixt cup and lip, the indications are that the two sides are bout to close up contract There is considerable good feeling throughout the entire city over the prospects of no suspension of work at the coal mines in this State.
 The offer of the operators made this afternoon was for renewal of the pre- sent contract with an advance in both the maximum and minimum wage of two and a half cents per ton, with a corres- bonding increase for the day labor and work when iron is on basis of SIP per ton. The present basis is $11 per ton
 As soon as the offer was received from the operators, the miners went into exec utive session to discuss the offer. The operators also convened in secret session in order to consider the situation
 The demands of the miners made at first was for 12 cents per ton increase on the maximum and minimum wage. It was rumored, however, that not more than cents was expected Some changes in the mining regulations were asked for as we'll as an increase in the day labor wage scale.
 At the conclusion of the miners execu- tive session this afternoon .sit bzvas an nounced that the ofFer Of Me Operators granting an advancetpf 1-2 cents in the mining wage would not be accepted. No definite statement was made beyond the fact that the ultimatum of the miners would be presented tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock. It is learned the miners want cents advance semi-monthly pay and eight hours to constitute a day. Offer of the operators still looks encouraging. George is Discharged.
 W. s. George who tipped the police off as to the robbery of the safe in the ticket office of the Union depot here in which nearly $,000 was stolen. and who was afterwards arrested charged with com plicity in the robbery. was today dis charged by Justice Benners.
