continue to suffer rather than submit to examinations which so many physi- clans propose in order to inteEt gently treat the disease; and this Is the req son why so many physicians fail to cure female disease.
 Thisis also the reason why thousands upon thousands of women are corre- spending with Mrs. Pinkhan. at Lynn. Mass. To her they can contide every detail of their illness, and from her great knowledge, obtained from years of experience in treating female Ills, Mrs. Pinkham can advise women more wisely than the local physician.
 Read how Mrs PinkhAm helped Mrs. T. c. Willadsen, of Manning. Ia. She writes:
 "I can truly say that you have saved my words. Before wrote to you telling you how felt, Ihad d0ctoFed for over two years steady, and spent lOta of money in medicines besides, but 1t all failed tod0 mo any good. I had female trouble and would daily have faint ing spells, backache, bearing down pains, and my monthly periods were very iFTegulaT and finally ceased. wrote to you for your ad- vice ard received e lsttsr full of instructions just what to do, and also commenced to take Lydia E. Pinkhams Vegetable Compound, and have been restored to perfect health. Had 1t not been for you would have been in my grave today"
 Mountains of proof establish the fact that no medicine in the world equals Lydia K. PinlkhRms Vegetable Com pound for restoring women's health

Berlin. Aug. 10.-Emperor William alluding to Polish discontent in speech today at a dinner at Gnesen Prussia, the ancient place where the Polish kings were crowned, said he wished each Catholic Pole to know that his religion was honored by his emperor.
 Tn my last visit to the Vatican said his majesty, 'the great Leo the Thirteenth. as I took my leave, held me with both hands and notwithstand- ing that l am a protestant gave me his blessing with this promise: ] pledge and promise your majesty in the name of all Catholics who are your subjects of whatever race or po- sltion that they will be faithful sub jects of the German emperor and the king of Prussia"

Heathem Are Apparently In Earnest In
 the Matter.
 Washington. Aug. 10.-Consul Gen eFal Rogers at Shanghai has cabled the Department of State that the chamber of commerce at that place is powerless to stop the boycott against Americans and American products and that the Chestu Chinese students real Iy control the situation. The Chinese ofiiciaIs are inactive in she matter. Mir. Rogers adds that all our our in habitants are seriously affected and other nationalities at Shanghai are becoming apprehensive lest the boycott movement extend to them.
 The State Department officials say that they can do nothing at present to ameliorate the situation, which all ready has been brought to the atten- ton of the Chinese government by Minister Rockhill, and 1t is probable that only the successful negotiation of a treaty more liberal in terms in the matter of admission of Chinese mer- chants and students to the United states will serve to cheek the anti- American movement.

seventy-seyen Cases

Since July l. 1904, and up to May 1, 1905, there had been seventy-seven cases of yellow fever originating on the Isthmus. Fifty eight of these were in the city of Panama. nine in Colon. three developed en route to Havana, one developed en route to New York and six developed on the United States ship Boston. then lying in Panama Harbor. Of the seyenty-seven cases, twenty-seven died and fifty recovered showing a mortality of 35 per cent Nine of those who died were employees of the Commission.
 During the month of July just past there were twenty-seven cases and ten deaths. the deaths being divided be- tween different nationalities. As 1t is in New Orleans, so 1t is in Panama There arc a good many cases among Italians, who are very filthy in their habits and surroundings.
 From the above it will be seen that the service of a funeral train fourteen times a day would hardly be required
 Among the American employees. the newcomers suffer the most. and there have been some sudden deaths. In one instance which occurred couple of weeks ago, the employe arrived on the Isthmus on the 10th of the month. was taken sick on the 13th and died on the 18th. .~~ @~ - x ... The horrifying stories in circulation in the States cannot be charged up to the American employe who has been on the Isthmus any length of time There are many now that have served a year, taken their vacation, and are back again In harness. It Is only the disgruntIed; those that perhaps have been on the Isthmus just long enough to take the next boat back. And there are plenty such l know of one case, where two men came down for clerical duty with the Commission. They reported for work on the morn Ing of the day they arrived. and in the afternoon of the same day sent in their resignations and no amount of persua- sion could induce them to reconsider their action. They had cold feet sure enough, and probably on their re- turn to mama" gave out a glowing interview setting forth the exact CD conditions on the Isthmus And so ii goes.
 ing, so, is attributed by many to be due to the idea that while tho mosquito theory is all right as far as it goes, the extermination of the festive zan- cudo, does not strike at the root of the evil This is bred in filth. and until Panama Is thoroughly cleaned up. the official declaration that this city is rid of the pest will doubtless be long delayed. Colonel Gorgas has made big stride in this direction. and

JAPANESE CRUISER FIRED ON MERCHANT VESSEL AND THEREBY CAUSED
 TROUBLE. The Adventure of a British Steamer in the Strait of

Steamers recently ill the port of New

 part of d Japanese transport and tit.
 British steamer Erroll, Captain G;rs1.

 Japanese cruiser Takachino ill Tsus!s
 ma strait.
 The Erroll was on her way froll Shanghai to Kobe or Moj with a cilr go of contraband cotton. Only because she got stuck ill the Shanghai river just above Woosang bar for two days ! she escaped capture by the Russian volunteer steamer Smolensk. About 9:Io Sunday night, after slid ing over the Woosang bar, Acting Chief Officer Mackenzie saw d steamer' s light right ahead. He ported and al tered his course five degrees. expecting the stranger to do the same. and the light still headed for the Erroll When the stranger was about half l mile away she ported slightly, so as to pass about 300 yards of, and turned | an electric searchlight on the Erroll.
 The man-of war, for such she evidently was, was still invisible.
 The chief officer called the captain.
 who put on his uniform cap and coat
 and took the bridge. The electric light
 was kept on for eight minutes. and then the warship stood on his course i His hull was now visible, and close be hind him, trailing like couple of 1 bloodhounds. were two torpedo boats showing no lights except astern. The ] captain went below again.
 At 11:45 o'clock a single white light | came up on the starboard quarter l flashing the Morse code signal "M N.'
 which means "Stop instantly" Before 1 the captain came up again two search l lights were playing on the Erroll, one 1 full on the bridge and the other flashed all over the ship and her deck cargo oi 1 cotton. The chief officer drank his coffee with perhaps hundreds of eyes
 upon him. the second officer coming tc
 relieve at midnight
 Captain Graham paid no heed to the I signals, keeping steadily on at full l speed.
 At 2 o'clock the stranger fired a gun
 but the Erroll still held on. At 3:4.

This will be of great benefit to Nebraska It will mean the ever- lasting overthrow of railroad domina- tion If the railroads enjoin the col. lection of their 1905 taxes, as they probably will to be consistent, the storm is sure to come which will sweep Nebraska back into the hands of Nebraskans and out of the rail- road grip"
 Gov Mickey is considering whether be will call an extra session to sub- nit amendments to the state consti tuition which he considers absolutely necessary, and to deal with regula- ton of railroad rates.

Con ta imitation by Sin.

A person who has allowed himself to digress from the path of righteous ness so far that those who were once his friends and acquaintances must needs look askance at him is often brought face to face with what he might have made of himself had he not sinned so deeply. Those people must feel a deep regret that they had not taken heed in time and prevented themselves from going so far. The fact that sin not only contaminates the flesh, but also robs the sinner of the blessings of heaven, should deter each one of us before we have taken step in the wrong direction. If men would display as much judgment in prepar- ing for their salvation as they do in business there would be many more Christians-Rey. J. Howard Gibbons, Point Pleasant County. w, Va

 This became known today upon the return of MT. Penfeld to Washington, accompanied by David E. Thompson, United States ambassador to Brazil Within an hour after his arrival Judge Penfeld called at the white house and remained with the president for near ly two hours.
 On leaving, he said he could not talk about his m ssion, adding, "I am obliged to refer you to the president.
 At the time the solicitor was sent abroad, the suggestion was nurtured
  to do with trade conditions, but it has been surmised all along that it had a more important and delicate object He spent four weeks in Brazil. and while there made a tour of the south ern section of the country.
