DEAR Mrs. PNKHAM Four wears

untold agony, and life was burden
to me. I had used medicines and
washes internally and externally until
/ made up my mind that there was no
relief for me. Calling at the home of
a friend, noticed bottle of Lydia
e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound. My friend endorsed it highly,
and decided TO give it a trial to see If
it would help me. It took patience
and perseverance for was in bad con-
dition, and I used Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound for
nearly five months before was cured,
but what a change, from despair to
happiness, from misery to the delight
full celebrating feeling health always
brings. would not change back for
a thousand dollars, and your Vegetable
Compound is grand medicine.

RULE UP BEFORE THE SENATE Carmack Says There is No
 Authority for Act DISTRICT BILL IS PASSED Several Republicans Contend That Or der Was Tn Line With Reeula-
 tons Made Under Ceve-
 lands Administration.
DISTRICT BILL IS PASSED

Washington, March 2S.-The senate to- day for three hours discussed the recent order of the pension bureau making old age an evidence of disability, and then passed the District of Columbia appro- priation bill. The discussion of the pen sion bill was based on the resolution of- fered some days ago by MT. Carmack, directing the committee on Judiciary to inquire into the authority of the execu- tive branch of the government to make such an order.
 MT. Carmack contended that no such authority exists. but several republican senators argued that the order was in line with the regulation issued by Judge Lochren, commissioner of pensions under MT. Cleveland. fixing 65 years of age as an evidence of infirmity
 MT. Carmack's resolution directing the committee on judiciary to make inquiry into the rights of the interior department to issue the old age disability pension re- gently promulgated was then taken up by the senate and it's legal phases dis cussed by it's author. Referring to the disability pension he said that it re- quired due proof of disability and you do not make due proof by begging the question and simply presuming that when q man is 62 years old he is disabled" He characterized the order as a piece of executive legislation and criticised it as another instance of executive encroach- men upon prerogatives of congress He quoted from a service pension bill pend- ing before congress to show that the order had coppied it's exact language

Cleveland Took Initiative.


 MT. Foraker asked if it was not true that MT Cleveland had issued a similar order in regard to the Mexican pensions but MT Carmack insisted that the action Of American pensioners was the result of Legislation and not of an executive order. MT. Carmack admitted, however. in re- sponse to suggestions from MT. MeCum- Der and MT. Aldrich, that the first step fixing old age as an evidence of dsabil- ity had been taken by MT. Cleveland
 But he said that does not help the case. l admit that the first violation of the law in this respect occurred at that time. The order in that case was however comparatively reasonable and the precedent has been violently seized upon by the present occupant of the White House to extend the practice"
 MT. McCumber, chairman of the com mttee on pensions said that the present practice is to assume disability at the age of 65. He contended that according to the order, the fact that man has reach ed the age of 62. Is taken only as prima facie evidence of disability. The effect of the order would be to advance the aga three years.
 Mr Fc.a<er defended the order as a praisewoith thy one in purpose. and conteni- cd that il law gives the secretary au. thority to make rules and regulations for tnn enf cement of the statute.

s:oner during the administration of Cleye- land. f.;ing the age of 65 as an evidehae O. dist L,nly
 Shifts Budren of Proof.
 MT. Foraker said his understanding or the order Is that an ex-soldier does not necessarily come into pension at the age of 62. but that the fact of age is only an evidential fact which shifts the burden of proof to the government.
 MT. Gallinger called attention to the fact that such latitude had been exereis- ed in administering the law of 1890, and he cited the acts of Commissioners Black and Evans in regard to widows pensions in support of the statement.
 The pension resolution was then lald aside, and the District of Columbia appro- priation bill passed after a little discus sion of amendments.
 MT. Proctor presented a partial report on the army appropriation bill lie sald that among the items disagreed to was that giving advanced rank to retired officers who had served in the civil war He said that the house had accepted the senate provision for an increase Tn the en- gineer corps of the army but that the senate had receded from it's amendment for a three battalion regiment of native troops in Porto Rico. The report was ac- cepted, and further conference or dered.
