An eminent physician says that
"Women are not truthful; they will lie
to their physician" This statement
should be qualified; women do tell the
truth, but not the whole truth, to a
male physician, but this is only in re-
gard to those painful and troublesome
disorders peculiar to their sex.
There al be no more terrible ordeal
to a delicate, sensitive, refined woman
than to be obliged to answer certain
questions when those questions are
asked, even by her family physician.
This is especially the cas with un-
married women.
Is it any wonder, then, that women
continue to suffer and that doctors
fail to cure female diseases when they
cannot get the proper information to
work on?
This is the reason why thousands and
thousands of women are now CORE
spending with Mrs. Pinkham. To her
they can and do give every symptom,
so that she really knows more about
the true condition of her patients,
through her correspondence with them
than the physician who personally
questions them.
Ifyou suffer from any form of trouble
peculiar to women, write at once to
Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass, and she
will advise you free of charge.
The fact that this great boon, which
is extended freely to women by Mrs.
Pinkham, is appreciated, the thou
sands of letters received by her prove.
Many such grateful letters as the fol-
lowing are constantly pouring in.

When a New York woman's club
solemnly decided the other day that
large families breed pauperism" and
criticised President Roosevelt's race sui
eide theories, they had not heard the
latest returns from Ohio. DR.. F. H. OAR
by, state superintendent of the Chill
dren's Home society, of Ohio, said that
the secretary of the society had recently
reported to him on the basis of known
statistics that on the average each child
placed in a home by the society inner
tied $4,000 from its foster parents. 81

d. Darby, "as there are many cases
where the information is lacking, but
l am certain that the average inherit
ance Of all children placed by us is
$1,000"

College professors in sociology find
fruitful field for discussion in the race.
suicide question and household eco
nomics Prof. Bailey, of Yale, who has
peen collecting the statistics, says that
The average college family" has three
and three-ffths children, while the
poor families whose statistics he com
puted have a fraction less than four
children on al average. These stats
Tics, says the New York World, do
not coincide with the census figures,
which make the size of the average
family five and a small fraction. The
trouble with most college figures is
Ihat the data are not extensive. A
few extraordinarily large families
would destroy the accuracy of the ay-
erage, The advance in the standard
of living diminlshes the size of the
family. 1t is always the case that
families which put their children early
to work and regard them as a means
of adding to the family income are
larger than the families where the
girls do no gainful or professional
work and where the boys are kept at
school and college until they are OF
age. Financial considerations and the
financial attitude of the parents toward
their children have more to do with
the size of families than any other
single factor.

An Ex-Sherin Talks.

Scott City, Kan, March 20th.-(Special)
Almost every newspaper tells of cures
of the most deadly of kidney diseases by
Dodd's Kidney Pills. Bright's Disease,
Diabetes, Rheumatism and Bladder trou-
bles, in fact any disease hat is of the
kidneys or caused by disordered kidneys
is readily cured by this great American
remedy.
But it is in curing the earlier stages of
kidney complaint that Dodd's Kidney
Pills are doing their greatest work. They
are preventing thousands of cases of
Bright's disease and other deadly ailments
by curing Kidney Disease when it first
shows its presence in the body.
Speaking of this work Ex-Sheriff James
Scott of Scott County, says:
Il have used eight boxes of Dodd's Kid
ney Pills and must say that they are just
the thing for Kidney Disease. We have
tried many kidney medicines but Dodd's
Kidney Pills are the best of all"

Finally Kerens appeared on the
floor and announced his withdrawal in
Warmers favor.
The spectators cheered wildly when
Kerens walked down the aisle. His
face was wreathed in smiles, and he
bowed to right and left as he passed
along.
1t was so near the hour of adjourn
ment that the democrats sought to pre-
vent an election. In an attempt to
move forward the clock hands the
clock itself was smashed. A fight fol-
lowed. An appeal for order by a dem
ocrat was followed by an effort to drag
the speaker from his rostrum.
When order was restored the dem
ocrats began changing their votes
with long explanations calculated to
gain time.
The sixty-sixth ballot resulted:
Cockrell, SO; Warner, 81; Kerens, 10;
Niedringhaus, s; Peck, 1.
The decisive vote was:

Earth Dropped Over One Hundred
Feet Just After Two Passenger

Joplin, No., March 1S.-Over 100 pas
sengers on the Kansas City Southern
and Frisco trains had a narrow escape
from plunging into a big cavein at the
P. and G. Mascot mine, INK mile south
of here. The cave-in occurred under
the tracks of both railroads just a few
moments after the passenger trains
had passed. The ground, several hun
bred feet in diameter, dropped a dis

Chemistry.

Some AZ chemists were lately given
samples of an ore from New Jersey
to work upon. When their results were
compared twas found that some af-
firmed the presence of 80 per cent. OF
zinc, while others reported but II per
cent. OF iron some found 21.92 per
cent, others 1904 per cent. In another
ore some found 1873 per cent. of zinc
and Is per cent. of iron, while others
found but 28.9 per cent. of zine and S.4
per cent. of iron. In view of these a n
alyses the committee of uniformity in
technical analysis in a recent report
holds that there is ample demonstra-
ton that analytical chemistry, as ordi-
narily practiced, is anything but an ex-
act branch of the chemical profession"
