TORTURE
PAIN SUFFERED BY MR.. MARsTON
AS GREAT AS MORTAL CAN STAND.
Tor six Months He Could Not Turn in
Bod-~He Tells of a Remedy WhIch
Has Given Perfect Relief.

The CO Sc of Mr.. MaEston shows that
sciatica can be cured, and no one afflicted
by it should allow himself. TO be dis
h%eartened. He was first stricken about q
year ago, and for six months he suffered
pain which he thinks the most intense
that any man could possibly stand.
Asked about the details of his remark
able recovery, Mr.. Marston gave the fol-
lowing account: " Has attacked by :.
numbness OF dull feeling just back of my
right hip. I dldn'tknow what the mat
ter was, but thought it was simply a
stiffness that would wear away in a
short time. 1t didn't, however, and
soon the pain became so very bad that
every step was torture for me. When [
finally succeeded i'll getting home, it was
just as much as I could do to reach my
room and get to bed.
sThe doctor was sent for, and when he
had examined me he said I had sciatica.
He prescribed for me, and advised me not
to try to leave my bed. The advice was
unnecessary for I couldn't get out OF
bed if I wanted to. 1t was impossible for
me to turn from one side to the other.
IHe IuollleHU L dbtollpUGu TO move any
part Of my body, the pain became SO ex-
cruciating that I would have to lie per-
fectly motionless.
Il suffered this torture for six months
without getting any relief. Then l dis
charged the doctor, andon the advice Of
a friendI bought a box of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills and began to take them, three
at a dose, three times a day. I was de-
termined to give them a thorough trial.
1.-Two months after I began to use
themI was able to leave my bed and
walk about the house. and month later
l was entirely cured and able to go about
my work as usual. I think DR.. Williams
Pink Pills are the bess medicine I ever
used, aud I heartily recommend them to
anyone who suffers from sciatica."
Mr.. Marston is a prosperous farmer
and may be reached by mail addressed
to Charles p. Marston, Hampton F. O.,
New Hampshire. Or. Williams Pink
Pills have cured other painful nervous
disorders, such as neuralgia. partial par
alys1s and locomotoI ataxia. They are
sold by all druggists.

True Genius Self Conscious.

Anything like self consciousness is

world whose wonders are the delight

fILIPlNOS HAVE
A DAY IN COURT
Visiting Congressman Listen to Pleas
For independence.
SOME ABSURD ARGUMENTS
uNFAVORABLE TURN IN CHOL.
ERA EPIDEMIC.

Manila. Aug. 29.-The marble hall of
the municipal building was crowded
all day with followers of the proSes-
sional agftators for the independence
of the Philippines who had been in
Yited by Governor General Wright to
air their grievances against the in
sular and federal government before
the visiting congressman. The meet
ing was called TO order by Senator
Scott of West Virginia, who acted as
chairman during the meeting. The
speakers urged the immediate indie
pendence of the islands. Nothing new
developed in the arguments, which
were the same as have been out for
ward since the civil government was
instituted. One speaker, until lately a
member of the Hongkong junta.
maintained that the FiIipinos were
better fitted for self government than
the Greeks, Bulgarians and Persians,
and would be willing to accept in
dependence under an American pro-
tectorate or under a system OF per-
petual neutrality arranged by the
United States with the leading powers
which guaranteed non-interferenee on
the part of the ambitious powers.
Made Them Laugh.
The same speaker said that one
reason advanced by Americans for not
granting the FiliDinos their indepen-
dence was their lack of a common
lang udSe. he referred TO InSlI uldleClS
and compared the FiliDinos, with their
multitude of tribal tongues, with the
languages spoken in Great Britain.
English, Scotch and Irish, saying that
nation met with difficulties in the
matter of language. This statement
aroused uproariOus laughter on the
part of the congressman. All the
speakers were subjected to volleys of
questions by Messrs. Newiands, War
rem Hepburn. GrOsvenOr Payne and
Cooper, all finally admitting that they
had not given the subject sufficient
study to determine just how to handle
independence if given 10 the Filipinos
Out of the Question.
Congressman Cooper of Wisconsin,
in an interview said:
1T is quite apparent to any one who
has looked into the matter even
supericially that self government for
of the question and that If granted
within d very few months after
the granting of independence there
would be a factionai fight, similar to
the AuginaldO-Luna feud, which
would give the powers an excuse TO
intervene and divide the islands"
The sessions viii be continued to-
morrow.
Cholera Epidemic.
The cholera epidemic has taken
rather unfaVorable turn. Since s
o'clock this morning until in the
evening there have been eleven new
cases reported among the natives. The
total number of cases treated since
the outbreak has been forty. with
deaths numbering twenty-five.

Washington. Aug. 29.-News of the

here with surprise, for while the Of

patches from Portsmouth last night, no
such speedy action was anticipated.
Following closely upon the press bui-
4etins announcing the agreement came
a message TO Acting Secretary of
State Loomis from Third Assistant

may be consequently regarded as Of

Two facts appeared clearly upon tho
announcement of the news; first that
the state departments officials had
never entertained any doubt that the
conference would reach an agreement.
and second, that the militant branches
OF the government, the army and
navy people, were as fully confident
mat the war would continue in

naustion Of one of the combatants.

reached, however, both branches of the
