Mrs. Anna Potts

Frequent backache and distressing
pains, accompanied by offensive dis
charges and generally by irregular
and scanty menstruation indicate dis
placement or nerve degeneration OF
the womb and surrounding organs.
The question that troubles women
is how can a woman who has some fe'
male trouble bear healthy children?
Mrs. Anna Potts, of $40 Park Avenue,
bot Springs, Ark, writes:
Ny Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
"During the early part of my married life
Eas delicate in health both my husband and
were very anxious for child to bless oul
lome, but had two miscarriages, and could
rot carry a child to maturity. A neighbor

ers, moral teachers and noble compan-
ions of man.
LAS Queen Esther was ready to take
a share in the responsibilities of her
husband, wife should be a positive
quality in the moral world, not mega
tive one.
IAN old English author once wrote:
"A good wife should be like three
things in some ways, but in others she
should not be like.
'"First, she should be like a snail,
to keep within her own house; but she
should not be like the snail to carry all
she has upon her back.
'"Secondly, she should be like an
echo, to speak when spoken to; but
should not be like an echo always to
have the last word.
'"Thirdly, she should be like town
clock, always to keep time and regu-
larity; but she should not like a town
clock speak so loud that all the town
may hear her.
II do not agree with that old English
writer at all. do not believe a woman
should be an echo, and only speak
when spoken to. She should be like
Queen Esther. She should cease to
be the plaything of man. She should
cease to be the humorer of masculine
whims. She should nobly and fear
lessly take her position by her hus
bands side and help him to solve the
great problems of life. She should do
this even if she has to say, as did the
noble queen of my text, And if
perish, L perish. "

LEADS RAID AS BABY DIES
Officer Randolph Conceals Deep Sor-
row While Making Import
ArrastS

ant Arrests
While officer Randolph was leading
a raid on five negro dens Saturday
evening one that the p Vice department
considers the most important that has
occurred in months, his 7-year-old
daughter was dying at her home. Not
until after the raids had been brought
to a successful elimination was Officer
Randolph told that his child had passed
away, and when the news came 1t
nearly prostrated him.
The clubs" raided are the most
notorious and dangerous dens of vice In
the city, according to the police. They
are the San Fernando club, said to I've
owned by John Bird; LOUIS club, said
to be owned by Lou Simpson; the Man
haitian club, said to be owned by Ben
Franklin; the Columbia club and the
Johnson club.
At the stroke of 10 squads of officers
detailed for the work entered each Of
the five places. and in every case except
one the surprise was complete. and not
the slightest resistance was offered.
Under the direction of Capt. Bradish,
officers Glenn and Randolph have been
working to secure sufficient evidence to
convict the three score whites and
negroes who have frequented the dives
for the past three weeks. So effectually
was the work carried out that all were
caught upprepared.
At the Columbia club a lookout who
saw the officers coming jumped from
the window in the second story and
escaped. Another feature of the raid
was the automobile patrol. Just as the
electric hurry wagon was being
rounded up in front of the San Pedro
street resorts-fash, and there was no
power.
In four Of the places raided large
quantities of liquor and beer were
secured.

Of the league, presided. The chorus
choir and orchestra furnished music
with w. L. Cleveland as leader, The
Premier Male quartet also participated.
Rev. e. NJ Randall general secretary
of the Epworth league, preached from
1 Corinthians $50: For we are labor
ers together with God" He said in
part:
"I think we fully understand that
we should be fellow-workers with God.
There is much significance in His up
lifting spirit that makes us fellow
workers with Him. Christ bore His
cross, saying, 1T is finished You and
1 are His successors in proclaiming His
message in completing His work. The
Holy Spirit is pleased to work within
us to carry out His precepts in making
us fellow-workers with Him, which Is
a great privilege. From the fact that
we are fellow-Workers we should
preach the gospel to all creatures. Our
Lord has defined His position with His
own. He says that we are the salt of
the earth and His witnesses. Our busi-
ness is to do His work and there are
many lessons taught us through His
parallels that we go out into the high
ways and byways to gather in the
needy.
There is no use in our praying un-
less we are honest in it. Too many
people are willing to see others saved,
but are unwilling to give themselves
up to salvation and enter the work of
saving those around them. They
would like to step into the kingdom in
some way without eXerting themselves
for their felloW-men.
I'VE were made the images of Christ,
but through our sins we departed from
Him. But upon our return to Him we
are made fellow workers with Him and
if we are His we are the true branch
and He makes us fruitful.
I'VE should do all in our power to
induce others to come to the Savior.
1t is those who doeth the will of the
Lord who are acceptable in His sight.
And in this doing we must vigilantly
press to the high calling and converse
with those around us who are out of
Christ's kingdom and bring them in.
1t seems nothing less than murder to
neglect these privileges. 1t is appall-
ing to see the Indifference of the So
called Christian people in not eX-
tending their influences among those
With whom they are connected in the
laily walks of life, to bring them with
in the knowledge of Christ. We should
ay aside all hindrances that would
prevent us from doing our utmost in
following the precepts of being true
fellow-workers with our Master"

Kanaka Pioneer Found Dead

A venerable Kanaka named Fri
day, relative of the man for whom
Friday Harbor was named, was
found dead just outside of his cabin
on Peter Lawson's ranch, near An
drew's bay, last Monday morning It
is supposed that his death resulted
from heart failure due to extreme
old age. Some of the early pioneers
of the island say that the old man
was here when they came and that
he must have been upwards OF 100
years old at the time of his death.
He was a fine gardener and for years
he obtained most Of his living from a
small piece of land the use OF which
was given him by Mr.. Lawson. He
was buried Monday in the Catholic
cemetery, at the expense OF the coun

PROBABLE CASE
OF SUICIDE
ssFRENCH FRANK, MISSING, SINCE
THE FOURTH OF JULY
Some of His Clothing and Watch and
Purse Found on Sweeney's Wharf.
Venerable Kanaka Found Dead on
Lawson Ranch.

Frank Breneir, better known
among his acquaintance in this
county as French Frank" has
been missing for the past ten days
and is now believed to have been
drowned from Sweeney's dock, where
his hat, jacket and vest were found
by Mr.. Sweeney last Saturday. His
watch was in the vest and purse
containing sixty cents was found in
one of the pockets of the Jacket.
Breneir had been employed for
some time at the Island lime works,
near Deer Harbor. Just before
leaving there about two weeks ago
he spent ali evening with w. w.
Crosby, fireman at the kiln. who had
known him for seventeen years. In
the course of their conversation
Breneir said he would leave box of
things at Friday Harbor which he
desired Mrs. Crosby to have, as he
was tired of packing them around
and wouldn't want them any more.
Mr.. Crosby inquired what was in it,
but Breneir only answered "You'l
find out. when you open it," He also
gave Mr.. Crosby an order on Fore
man Paxson, of the lime company,
for $500. The evening of the 3rd or
4th Breneir called at briggs store
and gave Mr.. briggs the keys to his
trunks and told him he wanted him
to take care of his personal belong
ings, which were at Sweeney's dock.
Mr.. briggs gave little thought to the
matter, supposing Frank" for
whom he had often done little favors,
was merely going out somewhere to
work. It Is now believed that he
committed suicide. He was bach
elor and is not known to have any
relatives in this country. He came
to this county about eighteen years
ago. Mr. Crosby thinks that he was
sixty -one years of age and that he
formerly lived in Montreal.
