Henry Rollette, who has recently
been fired from the humble position
of janitor at the state capitol, attrib.
utes such discharge to animosity
nurtured by the crowd of St. Peter
-papsuckers toward his father. Henry s
father was the man who once upon a
time made off with bill which would
have made possible the removal OF
the state capital from St. Paul to St.
Peter. A more ignominious proceed

can scarcely be coniectured.

Doubling the Demand.

By advertising her public lands
Minnesota has secured S15 an acre for
ground appraised at $6 and So. This
does not mean that buyers have paid
double the value of the land to foot
the advertising bills. 1t means a
doubling of the demand for farms and
a consequent increase of their actual
worth. There are other things than
public land the value of which may be
materially enhanced by stimulating

Paw of Ministers.

Among the bishops of the Methods
Episcopal Church now in session in Wash
ington the opinion is expressed that the
paw of the ministers of the gospel has not
increased 10 proportion to the constantly
increasing cost ofliving. This is busi-
ness proposition that not even the clergy
can overlook. Deba'red from gathering
any worldly goods in business way be-
cause of the years spent in training for
their calling, they are compelled to de-
pend for their comforts and necessities
upon the generosity of their parishioners
and often that generosity is extended
meagerly.
SALARIES paid the clergy" said Bishop
J. f. Berry, Of Buffalo, 'are none too
good at best, and, taking the country
over have remained stationary for some
time. OF course, some congregations
keep pace with the increasing demands
upon the minister; but, speaking gener-
ally, it is safe to say that salaries have
not advanced to meet existing conditions.
Living expenses have been growing year
after year; they will be higher this year
than last, and the church people ought
to meet this situation in the material way

WHY DOCTORS FAIL
AND MRS. PINKHAM SUCCEEDS
Plain Reasons Are Here Given to Explain
Why Lydia &. Pinkham's Vegetable COm-
pound Cures When Doctors Are PowerIess

Awomanis sick; some disease peculiar
to her sex is fast developing in her sys-
TEN. 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 conceais
what she ought 10 have told, and thus
completely mystifes The doctor.
Is it any wonder, therefore, that the
doctors fail to cure the disease? stu
we cannot blame the woman, for 1t Is
very embarrassing TO detail some Of the
symptoms of her suffering, even to her
family physician.
II was for this reason that years ago
Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass, de-
terrnined 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 20 her for advice in
regard to their complaints, and being
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 Tor
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 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 lis
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 troubie 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.

Togo Addressed Spirits.

The great Shinto rites, in memory OF
the naval officers and men who we're
killed during the war, were held yester-
day at Aoyama Cemetery, near Toxic.
Besides the admirals, officers and sail
ors, hundreds of civil dignitaries we're
present. .,
Admiral Togo addressed the departed
spirits, eulogizing their noble deeds in
battle and their gallant cooperation
which resulted in the sacrifice of their
lives. He humbly asked response for
the spirits whose exemplary deeds in life
had contributed to the victory over a
powerful enemy.
While reading his address Admiral
Togo was seen to be stirred with strong
emotion, which was in contrast with
his calm demeanor while on the bridge
of the Mikasa during the hottest battles.
The ceremony was most impressive,
and calculated to leave lasting i'm
preston on those who witnessed 1t.
Thousands of sailors marched to the
accompanying strains of music to the
cementery and afterward to the naval
club.
