All women work; some in their
homes, some in church. and some in
the whirl of society And in stores,
mills and shops tens of thousands are
on the never-ceasing treadmill, earning
their daily bread.
All are subject to the same physical
laws; all suffer alike from the same
physical disturbance, and the nature of
their duties. in many cases. quickly
drifts them into the horrors of all
kinds of female complaints, ovarian
trou bles, liberation, falling and dis
placements of the womb, leucorrhea,
or perhaps irregularity or suppression
of " monthly periods" causing back
ache, nervousness. irritability and
las5itude.
Women who stand on their feet all
day are more susceptible to these
troubles than others.
They especially require an invigorat-
ing, sustaining medicine which will
strengthen the female organism and
enable them to bear easily the fatigues
of the day, to sleep well at night, and
to rise refreshed and cheerful.
How distressing to see a woman
struggling to earn a livelihood or per-
form her household duties when her
back and head are aching, she is so
tired she can hardly drag about or
stand up, and every movement causes
pain, the origin of which is due to
some arrangement of the female or
ganisE.

Chicago. October 1S-President Stuyve- sant Fish of the Illinois Central Railroad company. addressing the stockholders at the annual meeting of the company, held here today, said he wished to depart somewhat from custom, and to make statement showing the great development of the Illinois Central since he first be- came a director, in 1876.
 Mir. Fish then read comparative state- ment which showed for 1876 and 1905, re- spectively, the gross receipts and the disposal made of them. Among the inter- estng items of MT. Fish's statement were figures showing that for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1905, the gross earnings were more than seven times those of the year 1s7e. in 1905 the earnings were s49,- sos, 649 and in 1876 they were s7O4O, 969. Dur ing the last thirty years the number of passengers carried per mile increased more than eleven times, the figures for 1876 being 5l, ,2SS, ,031 compared with 5s3. .4s1. = S95 in 1905 A still greater increase was shown in the tonnage of freight carried per mile, more than twenty times more freight being carried in this year than in 1876. The figures for 1905 are 5,559 ,839, 454 tons. against 264.602.314 tons for 1876.
 MT. Fishs statement also showed that since 1877 the capital stock has been in creased from s29.oO0.ooo to s95.o4oO O0o by the payment into the treasury of the company s66,s ,s4o,0o0 in ,cash.

 Service"

Washington, October 1S.-An important announcement of policy regarding the tenure of office of postmasters throughout the country was made today by Postmas- ter General Cortelyou There has been received publications to the effect that there had recently been changes in the policy governing the appointment of post masters under respective classes were met with the statement that the reports were erroneous.

 '"rhe policy regarding fourth-class of fees was announced in April last, namely, that incumbents will be retained during satisfactory service"
 Fourth-class postmasters are comms- pioned to hold office during the pleasure of the postmaster general
 In the matter of presidential offices the postmaster general said:
 "'The case Is somewhat different. as these appointments are made for fixed terms In that class of offices each case requiring action is considered and settled on the basis of what is deemed for the best interests of the service.'
 Replying to further interrogatories on the general policy question, and the pos- sibility of Congress, the postmaster gen. eral added that no changes in the policy outlined are contemplated.

were at stake, Mir Reichman said the commission was working great injustice to the defendants, as the burden of proof was placed on them instead of on the complainants. Mir. Bowles' figures show ing a low cost of refrigeration in a sec- tion where ice Is high, were, however. permitted to stand.
 On cross-examination Mir. Bowles ad- mitted to MT. Reichman that the cost of refrigeration stated. included only the cost of Ice, hauling and the labor in- volved in loading the cars. He said that in the majority of suits growing out of refrigerator service, these are not consid- cred, and finally that the cost of ice In the south Is less than 1t would be to the Armour lines, as the Illinois Central as- sesses a low freight charge on the haul ing of Its Ice south.
 Mir Bowles conceded further that re- frigerator cars are used frequently for ordinary freight; for the Illinois Central could use it's refrigerator cars only a short period of each year, and the road could not afford to own them.
 Plans of Pennsylvania.
 c. N. Dixon, freight traffic manager of the Pennsylvania railroad. explained the use of refrigerator cars on his line. He stated that the road owns its own icing station and ices any cars that need it. Jersey City was mentioned as an illus tration and MT. Dixon said the road re- ceived $4. 50 a ton for ice Mir. Dixon testi- fled that the Pennsylvania railroad owns 3lO0 refrigerator cars and supplies them to shippers at a less rate than shippers are compelled to pay for private cars. Mir Barry sought to show that if all railroads owned their refrigerator cars, the charges for refrigeration would be much less. Counsel for the private car lines contended that the roads operating only a small mileage could not afford to own sufficient cars to take care of all the business originating there during the rushed fruit seasons.
 The hearing was continued until to- morrow.
