cause She Hesitated to Consult Her
observation-disclosures of Re-
markable Case.
The natural reluctance which every
woman feels to consult physician re-
garding troubles peculiar to her sex
caused Mrs. G. Weber, of No. 1855 South
Front street, Columbus, Ohio, to let her
illness run on until it became chronic,
and even the excellent doctor whom she
employed could give her no relief that
was permanent. She gives the follow
ing details Of an interesting case:
81 felt the trouble a long time before
went to our doctor, perhaps a year or
more. When I did consult him he told me
7 had female trouble. I felt sharp pains
through my stomach and could not walk
across the room without suffering ag-
onies which cannot describe. My head
ached SO that it fairly thumped and at
times it seemed that would go crazy.
Ny stomach became SO weak that it
would retain only the lghtest food.
Week after week I took the doctors
medicine, but continued to feel worse
and worse. On several occasions I was
confined to my bed for a week at time
My weight decreased to 1O2 pounds and
I seemed confirmed invalid.
One day [ read of case similar to
mine that had been cured by DR.. Will
hams' Pink Pills for Pale People and,
although did not have much confidence,
began taking the pills, having already
discontinued my doctors treatment.
While was taking the second box be-
gan to feel little better and the i'm
provement continued until I was cured,
In few months I had recovered my
health and strength and weighed 1872
pounds. I owe everything to DIR. Viii
Hams Pink Pills.
No discovery of modern times has
proved such blessing to women as DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
Acting directly on the blood and nerves,
invigorating the body, regulating the
functions, they restore the strength and
health in the exhausted patient when
every effort of the physician proves I'M
availing. These pills are sold in boxes at
so cents box, or six boxes for SO. so, and
may be had from all druggists, or direct
from DR.. Williams Medicine Co., Sche-
nectady, N. Y.

Hardwick, a well known local capitalist who has an oil well in Los Angeles, is keeping in close touch with the progress of the work and is very favorably impressed as are others who own no property in that immediate vicinity. As mentioned be- fore MT. Bennett has but small means but it is likely from present encour- agement, that with the help of others he will form company issuing stock to those who are willing to contribute something to the furtherancc of the en- terprise. While there is yet no posi- tive assurance of finding d pay ing body of oil, the indications are al- together too nattering to be allowed to so by default.

sand clogs the screen at the lower end of the pump so the water does not flow in readily and he can only raise about one third as much water as he ought to- Today he is going to have differ ent screen made and one that he thinks will work better. If he can get the right kind of a screen he hopes to be able to sink the well some distance further with his present equipment.
 It has been suggested to him that the underground flow here is too strong for q pump of that capacity but he says the formation iii the well, while similar to the sand and gravel statum all over the valley, is much harder and cannot be loosened except with pick and crowbar, being gummed together with what seems to be the residue of crude oil or asphaltum. The flow of water, he says, is not as strong as in looser formations and if necessary it can be Iessened some by curbing. While he does not expect to go to great depth with the present equipment he thinks he can go far enough to demonstrate the advisability of a regular derrick. to take up the work where the we'll digging ceases.
 me gravel and bOulderS taken rom the well continue to be covered with the dark gummy substance first noted several feet above, only there seems to be rather more of it. Further, the water pumped from the well all yes terday afternoon bore a slightly oily film or scum on it's surface, of exactly the same nature secured by boiling the rocks in the earlier samples taken. That scum is not visible by a direct view of the water but by standing % one side of the ditch where the sun reflects upon it, it can be plainly seen; or at least it could all day yesterday. MT. Bennett says he took woolen rag and laid it in the ditch, permitted the oil to settle upon it, then wrung the water out of it and burned the oil off the rag.
 MT. Bonnet himself is not the only man who has become enthusiastic over the prospect. Several of his neigh bors are taking deep interest and some have promised help in continuing ex-

still to keep on bidding for tourists as
we'll as the enjoyment of our own peo-
pie. All are not sick people, and with

Governor Carters scheme Of paying
most OF the Government physicians $40
month each is probably not far
wrong. 1t is well enough for the au-
thorltles to keep a search light on the
medical gentry, particularly in tho
country districts; and that can be cas-
lest done by keeping financial string
on them, however small 1t may be. or
course very few of the physicians de-
serve any pay or support from the pub
lie purse. They are working almost ex-
clusively for the plantations, for which
they are well paid, and whenever they
are called out for private cases they
satisfy themselves as to the size OF the
fee at the other end OF the line before
they saddle up and respond. At the
same time, 1t is best to have tab on
them for emergencies.

Americans And The Prince.

Many members of the great Ameri.
can people, who don't believe In
princes and have no use for royalty of
any kind unless it suits a certain pur.
pose, fell over one another in trying
to do the grand to entertain real Chi
nese prince day before yesterday. In.
stead OF being democratic lot, they
almost crawled on all fours to do him
honor. To our conception, the agony
was great and that 1t was very agoniz.
ing to behold how they, one and all,
tried their utmost to out-Herod Herod
and to outdo everything and every
body. It was very sickening to watch
the curious catch glimpse and have
q squint at the prince, the first In a
life time probably, and many WIN not
have the same chance again, as III he
was unlike any other Celestial.

MAS PROPERLY SQUELCAED.

The Independent is heartily in ac'
cord with certain action of the ma
jorlty in the House. When a member
becomes obstreperous and insists on
forcing measure other than that for
revenue, in utter disregard of the as
surance given the Governor before
calling the Legislature into special
session. we, earnestly believe in sit
ting down on him good and hard. Rep.
resentatlve Kupihea yesterday fore
noon begged leave to introduce the
County Act, of which he had previous
ly given notice, but permission was
not granted by the majority. That
was right and It's what it should be.
II he utterly lacked the first principle
of acting squarcly and sincerely, In ac-
cordance with the promise and assur
ance made, let him understand that he
is not to trine with the majority. AS
this is no session for the consideration
of a County Act, "Organic Act Dave"
was bull-headed enough TO force the
issue, but he got well paid for his
pains, and We sincerely hope that he
will be kept down to 1t till the close Of
the session. We wonder who has the
temerity to urge him to do 1t, not be.
