WHY DOCTORS FAIL
AND MRS. PlNKHAM SUCCEEDS
Plain Reasons Are Here Given to Explain
Why Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound Cures When Doctors Are PeWerIess

Awomanis sick: some disease peculiar
to her sex is fast developing in her sys-
tenn. She goes to her family physician
and tells him story, but not the whole
story.
. She holds something back, loses her
head, becomes agitated, forgets what
she wants to say, and finally conceals
what she ought to have told, and thus
completely mystifes the doctor.
Is it any wonder, therefore, that the
doctors fail to cure the disease? Still
we cannot blame the woman, for it is
very embarrassing to detail some of the
symptoms of her suffering, even to her
family physician. >.,.....-
1t was for this reason that years ago
Mrs. .Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass, de-
termined to step in and help her sex.
Having had considerable experience in
treating female ills with her Vegetable
Compound, she encouraged the women
of America to write to her for advice in
regard to their complaints, and being q
woman, it was easy for her ailing sis
ters to pour into her ears every detail
Of their suffering.
In this way she was able to do for
them what the physicians were unable
to do, simply because she had the
proper information=to work upon, and
from the little group of women who
sought her advice years ago a great
, army of her fellow-beings are to-day
constantly applying for advice and re-
lief, and the fact that many thou
sands Of them have been cured by
following the advice of Mrs. Pinkham
during the last year is indicative of the
grand results which are, produced by
her unequaled experience and training.
No physician in the world has had
such training, or has such an amount
/ of information at hand to assist in the
treatment of all kinds of female ills,
from the simplest local irritation to
the most complicated womb diseases,
This, therefore, is the reason why
Mrs Pinkham. in her laboratory at
Lynn, Mass, is able to do more for the
ailing women Of America than the
family physician. Any woman, there
| fore, is responsible for her own suffer
| ing who will not take the trouble to
write to Mrs. Pinkham for advice.
The testimonials which we are con-
stantly publishing from grateful wo-
| men establish beyond a doubt the
power of Lydia =. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound to conquer female diseases

To Weld the Big Stick,

1t is assumed that President Roose-
velt will, in his annual message, urge
upon congress the necessity for such
legislation as will remedy the glaring
discrepancy between the material and
the personnel Of the navy. ~
The American "big stick' has been
rapidly increasing in dimensions dur.
ing the past few years, but the dis
parity between it's efficiency and di-
mensions- by ships and guns
lis becoming wider and wider as the
building of ships goes on. Obviously,
naval efficiency calls for men as we'll
as material, for trained crews as well
as the best products of shipbuilder and
the sentiment Of the American people
in relation to material for effective
work by the navy, either offensive OF
defensive. But congress has not re-
sponded to the popular feeling or the
Recommendations Of naval authorities
in the matter of. officers and enlisted
men. ~
Shortage Of 1000 Men.
At this time, according to the Army
and Navy journal, there is shortage
Of 1000 men in the enlisted personnel
Of the navy, and unless provision is
made by the ffty-ninth congress for
this increase in force, several ships
will have to go out of commission.
!. It is stated bv the same authority
that should war break out under the
present conditions, there would be just
about half enough officers and men to
man the ships Of the country properly,
and half-manned vessels cannot be ex-
pected to do creditable work.
The president will not have occasion
to appeal to the country for support in
pressing this duty upon congress. All
the people, regardless of sections or
parties, desire that our warships be
sufficiently and efficiently manned.
There may be differences Of opinion as
to how tar we should go in adding to
but all are of one mind as to the prop
osition that the personnel should be
brought up to the standard of the ma
teria1, and kept there.

LOSERS AT POLICY -.
COMPLAIN TO THE G. ].

Some time ago, Frank W. Murray and
John Albright lost some money in a
policy game, and later, made complaint
against John 3: Quirk, proprietor Of
the saloon at $40 Hennepin avenue,
the game. They complained to the Do
lice, but had no evidence duplicating
Quirk, and no action was taken. Then
they complained to the grand jury and
in consequence Mayor DIP. Jones, Po-
lice Superintendent James Doyle and
License Inspector George Longfellow
were summoned. Mayor Jones, in O
conference with the county attorney to-
day, told all he knew about the matter
and explained that nothing had been
done because the complainants had not
been able to connect Quirk with: the

PUBLIC DEBT GROWS.
Increased S12, ,229 During NfontE,
of July.

Washington, Aug. 2.-The monthly
statement of the public debt shows that
at the close of business July 81, 1905,
the debt, less cash in the treasury,
amounted to 81 ,0O2, O4S, OO1, which is an
increase for the month of $12, 1872, 229.
This increase is largely accounted for
by a corresponding decrease in the
amount of cash on hand.
The debt is recapitulated as follows:
Interest bearing debt, 1895, 1853, 720; debt
on which interest has ceased since ma
turity, $1,264, 1856; debt bearing no in
terest, 1886. 491. 270; total, 81, 2S1, 914, 731.
This amount, however, does not include
1898, $3.50 in certificates and treasury
notes outstanding which are offset by
an equal amount of cash on hand held
for their redemption. The cash in the
treasury is classified as follows: Gold
reserve, $4,000, 900; trust funds, $685.
726969; general fund, $151, 034 .OO9; in
national bank repositories, SOS, us, 119 !;
in treasury of Philippines, So, 972 621.
Total. $1.364. 449 ola. against which there
are demand liabilities outstanding
amounting to 81 ,084, 583 28S, which leaves
a cash balance on hand of $279, 1865, 731.

LACK OF LABORERS.
Western Roads Experience More Trou-
BILE With Men.


Los Angeles, Aug. Reconstruction
work on the new extensions of the
Pacific Electric is being delayed
through lack of Mexican laborers. 1t
is now believed that it will be impos-
sible to open the Newport Beach line
for two weeks at least, owing to the
difficulty in securing workmen.
The Southern Pacific is experiencing
the same difficulty in securing labor
ers for section hands. The dearth of
laborers here is charged to the depre-
dations on this territory of contractors
agents from Arizona and Texas, who
have been Offering f1attering induce
ments to Mexicans from Los Angeles
and vicinity to go out upon the new
work there.
The Southern Pacific endeavors to
hold it's Mexican laborerS for a time at
least by offering them free transporta-
ton back to their homes after they
have completed six months service
with the company.
1t is charged that the contractors
agents are stealing the railroad Mex
leans away on promise of free trans
portatiOn home, and bonus of SO
for three months work.
The Southern Pacific reports more
than 200 trackmen short on its south
ern divisions, and the other railroads
are feeling the scarcity of workmen in
proportion. 1t is possible, owing to the
difficulty of securing laborers from
Mexico, that some section gangs of
other nationalities may be put on sew
eral of the western divisions of the
coast lines.

A DRY LAUNCHING.
No Wine Will Be Opened for the Party
From Kansas.

Philadelphia, Aug. 2.-When the
first class battleship Kansas, the very
youngest leviathan of the United States
navy, slides down the ways to her first
plunge into the waves at the yards of
the New York Shipbuilding company
August IL she will be the first war
ship in the navy whose launching
party was not Wined and dined. 1t
will be SO because Kansas is prohibit
ton and because Governor Hoch is
total abstainer who practices what he
breaches, who even attempted to pull
off the christening of the sea monster
champagne bottle. The shipbuilders
have decided that it would not be good
taste for them to set wine OF liquor of
any kind before Governor Hoch, his
daughter, Miss Anna, the Kansas
sponsor, members of his staff or any
dry-throated pilgrims from the Sun
flower state who will make up the en-
tourage. Not a cork will pop and
only one lonesome bottle of wine will
be given with the ticket of admission
to the ceremonies, and it only to have
its sweetness wasted on river and air
as the sponsor breaks its neck upon
the bow of the Kansas.
The only temptation that will be set
before Governor Hoch and party will
be q tender of fine favored cigars
The public will not be admitted to
the launching. The only guests will be
the members of the Kansas party, the
secretary of the navy, League island
navy yard officials and construction
men from the various shipbuilding
yards. Governor Hoch and his daugh-
ter will be guests of the shipbuilding
company during their stay in the city
