The wonderful power of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound over
the diseases of womanlind is not be-
cause it is a stimulant, not because it
is palliative. but simply because it is
the most wonderful tonic and recon-
structor ever discovered to act directly
upon the generative organs positively
curing disease and restoring health and
vigor.
Marvellous cures are reported from
all parts of the country by women who
have been cured, trained nurses who
have witnessed cures and physicians
who have recognized the virtue of
lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, and are fair enough to give
credit where it is due.
If physicians dared to be frank and
open, hundreds of themwould acknowl-
edge that they constantly prescribe
lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound in severe cases Of female ills, as
they know by experience it can be re-
lied upon to effect a cure. The follow
ing letter proves it.

REPORT OF JOHN OUDERKIRK
ON HILO ARMORY
To the Honorable C. S. Holloway, Su
perintendent of Public Works

To the Honorable c. S. Holloway, Su-
perintendent of Public Works
Sir: At your request / have IN
spected the armory. building at Hilo,
now under construction by Contractors
L. N. Whitehouse & Co.
L have to inform you that the CON
tractors are not doing the work ac-
cording to plans and specifications,
nor are they complying with ethe terms
of their contract.
did not find the contractors on the
building, nor did / find foreman, as
the specifications call for. To my
mind this is important.
| find that the contractors have sub
let the building TO j. G. Carter, and
they are USING him as foreman in or
der to cover that clause In the speclt-
cations, which | think is wrong
[ find that they are not using the
best material in the building which
the specifications call for. The rustic
was not stacked up to dry, but was
nailed on green, and now the joints are
one-quarter of an inch open, which
shows very bad from the inside.
[ find that they have used black
nails on the building where they should
have used galvanized nails, as the
Spec10cdIIODS Sidte IudIciidi iob oBCSh
fed shall be of the best, and to my
nina galvanized nails are the best.
| find the bottom plates left out of
the building, as called for on the plans,
and if the contractors had compe-
tent foreman on the buildings the
specifications call for-such things
would not occur.
[ think it would be to the best in
terests of the public if your Inspector
would istanu hard and fast to the plans
and specifications and force the con-
tractors to appeal to the Superintend-
ent of Public Works for relief.
I fail to see, taking the plans and
specifications as a whole, where the
contractors have performed work or
furnished material not called for by
said plans and specifications, but L do
see where the Public Works Depart
ment would be justified in calling on
the contractors to make deduction
for things left out, but called for by
the plans and specifications.
In regard to splicing the beams, L
would say that the way they are Joln-
ed together is amply strong, but II
done as shown on the plans, it would
make better job. By changing the
splice the contractor saved material
and labor.
As specified, all joints of purlins
should have 12-inch splice, but the
sub-contractor has made butt-lolnt
and nailed piece of Ike II inches
long on each side, which is a better
Job Labor and material saved on the
change is not worth mentioning
The corrugated iron on the roof, as
specified. should have side lap of two
corrugatious: this IS a mistake; 1t
must lap either one and half or
two and a half corrugations. l do not
think you should deduct anything from

NEGLECT OF THE CONTRACTOR
AND NEGLIGENCE OF PUBLIC
WORKS OFFICIALS.

The specifications call for the con-
slant presence of the contractor or his
foreman, while the job is going. on.
We find that the contractor was not
present on the job more than three or
four days, and then only when COM
plants were made that the specifca-
tions had been violated.
The contractor, L. NJ. Whitehouse &
CO., sub-let the contract to j. G. Car
ter, and then appointed the sub-con-
tractor its foreman, paying no further
attention to the job.
This fact was well known to the
Public Works Department, but no OBJ
lection was made thereto
We consider this to be a rank viola

The contractor has used black nails.
which are an inferior article.
10. Plates. The specifications call
for bottom plates to the building. The
contractor left these out, until Mr..
Ouderkirk required him to put them
IN, when he sawed off all the studding
and drove the plates in, making a most
understandable job.
10. Steps. The specifications call
for front steps of a certain width The
contractor, with the approval of the
inspector, has put in steps of only half
the specified width, with a correspond
ing saving TO the contractor. while the
good looks of the building are dimin-
ished by the change.
Il. Extras. The contractor has
claims for a number of extras.
Mr. Ouderkirk reports that all OF
the so-called "extras'' are included
within the meaning of the original
specifications and We agree with him.
No extras should be allowed
Is. Changes. The contractor has
claims for some changes which he says
We're ordered by the government IN
spector.
The contract specifies that no
changes shall be made or charged for.
except upon an agreement in writing
being signed by the Superintendent of
Public Works and the contractor.
In spite of the many changes above
enumerated, and others not enumerat-
Ell, there is not a scratch of a pen au-
thorizing one of them.
We consider this provision an abso-
lutely necessary one for the protec-
ton of the public interests, and that
the Superintendent of Public Works
has no right. to waive it.
In conclusion, it appears toyour COM
mittee that the rights of other con-
tractors and the public have been en-
this contract The contractor has APP
parently been permitted to do as he
chose, without any adequate check or
supervision, the law and the specifica
tions being alike ignored, the public
gettin~ the worst of it every time.
We estimate that by the changes in
and violations OF the contract, the con
tractor has saved about 5000, or about
II per cent on the amount of the con-
tract, at the expense of the public.
The Hilo armory is, by the neglect
of the Public Works Department and
the wilful violation of the contract by
the contractor, an inferior and un-
workmanlike building.

You will find by referring to plans
that all outside studuing is spaced
four feet on centers. / consider this
very poor construction; where the
walls are to be covered with rustic no
studding for rustic walls should be
placed more than two feet on centers,
but it Is not too late to correct this if
the department feels so disposed.
The ceiling joists over officers rooms
are specified to be of 2x4; the span
being % feet, should have stronger
joists, say 2x10 or 2x12 inch.
Front steps have peen changed by
your inspector to about one-half the
width shown on plan, which is a great
saving to the contractors.
I do not agree with your inspector
in regard to painting the outside of
building. Your specifications read that
exterior of building shall have two
coats of paint. I claim the roof is in
Guided, as well as the walls. Your in
spector says walls only.
All changes made by your inspector
and the contractors have been made
without any regard to your specifica-
tions on page 8, under the head of
q Changes. -
In conclusion, I would say that you
should compel the contractors to either
superintend the work themselves or
place a competent foreman on the
building to look after the sub-contrac-
tors.
Respectfully submitted,

ed in milling the lumber, such milling
being uone especially for this job. This
was contrary to the specifications and
the law.
The contractor was notified of this
violation before he put the lumber on
the building, as was also the Superin-
tendent of Public Works. Both ignor-
ed the fact and the entire rustic sid
ing of the building and all other mill
ed lumber was made exclusively by
Asiatic workmen, and this in spite of
the fact that there is in Hilo lum-
Der mill which employs exclusively
citizen labor.
We call attention TO the fact that
in another recent case in Honolulu the
Superintendent of Public Works con-
demned lumber used in a government
building contract because it was mill
ed by citizen employing Asiatics.
If the law concerning the employ
ment of citizen labor is TO remain on
the statute books it should be en-
forced against all alike, as it is ex-
ceedingly unfair to require contractors
to base their bids on high-priced citi-
zen labor and then allow a favored
contractor to bid low and get the con-
tract, knowing that the citizen labor
law viii not be enforced against him.

The END G TIE GRIP
REACHED AFTER EIGHT YEARS
OF COMPLICATED TROUBLES
Deafness, Kissing Sounds in Head, Stomach
Disorder, Palpitation of Heart and
Debility Overcome at Last.

MI Newman certainly had very
tough time with the grip and ii is no
wonder that he thinks that the remedy
that cured him can't be beat. His case
shows how profoundly grip poisons the
system and how obstinately it resists
all ordinary efforts to eradicate it.
Few cases can be worse than Mr..
Newman's for he had head. heart and
stomach troubles combined with great
weakness. He recently said:
The attack of grip which had eight
years ago left me in a very bad fix. I
became nearly deaf and my head ached
continually and was filled with kissing
and roaring sounds. My heart futtered
and had regular running-away spells.
My stomach was so sore that I could
hardly bear touch On that part of my
body. I had a great deal of pain in the
region of my liver and the doctor said
that organ was enlarged. My kidneys
ached so at times that 1 could hardly

What did you do to get relfef?''
First tried a doctor but he did me
no good. Then 1 took all kinds of ad-
vertised preparations but nothing prov

relief right away and in three months
they positively cured me. I think 1

my life than l am at present"
Mr. William A. Newman is a we'll
known Camden county farmer, living
at Sagrada, Missouri. His case was a
severe test for any remedy, but DIR.

poison of the grip into hiding. but DR..
