Disadvantage of Stalking.

AS a rule, it is best not to stake young

are cut short and the tree has such a
heavy top that a stake is needed, 1t
will meet with such a check in digging
that it will rarely recover it's vigor.

THE IDEAL WIFE
Shapes the Destiny of Mer-The Influence OF
Healthy Woman Cannot Be Overestimated.

ssven-eighths of the
men in this world marry
a woman because she is
beautiful in their eyes
because she has the quail
ties which inspire admira-
ton, respect and love.
There is a beauty in
health which is more at
tractive to men than mere
regularity of feature.
The influence of women
glorious In the possession
of perfect physical health
upon men and upon the
civilization of the world
could never be measured.
Because of them men have
attained the very heights
of ambition because of
them even thrones have
been established and de-
stroyed.
What a disappointment,
then, to see the fair young
wife's beauty fading away
before a year passes over
her head! A sickly, half
dead-and-alive won a n,
especially when she is
the mother Of a family,
is a damper to all joyous
ness in the home, and a
drag upon her husband.
The cost of a wife's con-
slant illness is a serious
drain upon the funds of a

household, and too often all the doc
toring does NO good.
If a woman finds her energies are
Tagging, and that everything tires her,
dark shadows appear under her eyes,
her sleep is disturbed by horrible
dreams; If she has bacsache, head
aches, bearing-down pains, nervous
ness. whites, irregularities, or despon-
dency, she should take means to build
her system up at once by a tonic with
specific powers, such as Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound.
This great remedy for women has
done more in the way of restoring
health to the women of America than
all other medicines put together. 1t is
the safeguard of woman's health.

letter from a young wife.

Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound

What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound did for Mrs. Ainsley it wila
do for every wonan who is in poor

Its benefits begin when it's use begins.
It gives strength and vigor from the

Remember Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-

the greatest number of actual cures OF
woman's ills. This fact is attested to
by the thousands of letters from CRATE

CITY COUNCILS AT OUTS
Mayor Weaver and Republican Organ
izatlon Battling as to Increase
of PhIIadeIphia's Debt
Rv Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 5.-There was
another sl1irmish in the city councils
today today between the forces on the side
of Mayor Weaver and those support
ing the Republican organization over
the the matter of increasing the citys
debt $6OOO,OOO. Two weeks ago both
branches of the councils passed an
ordinance authorizing an increase in
the city's debt of $4,O00,000 for the re-
moval of railroad grade crossing and
another authorizing an increase of the
debt $2,OOO,OOO for street paving: Today
Mayor Weaver vetoed both bills
The common council passed both bills
over the mayors veto by the neces-
sary three-ffths vote, while the select
council sustained the veto on the paw
ing bill, but passed the grade cross
ing bill over the mayors disapproval.
Under the laws governing the mu-
nicipality the grade crossing loan bill
now goes to the people, who must ap-
prove the measure by vote before the
city's indebtedness can be increased.

SMUGGLERS IMPLICATED
IN HEAVY BURGLARIES
INSURANCE MAGNATES AMONG
THE VICTIMS
Hundreds of Dollars Worth of Silver
and Diamonds Confiscated by Gov-
ernment Identified as Having Been
Taken From Prisoners Employer
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Oct. 1.-Two burglars of
supposed International reputation are
in the custody of government officials
in this city and efforts are to be made
by Edward l.. Montgomery, stepson of
Isaac II. Floyd, vice president of the
Mutual Life Insurance company, to
have the pair taken to New York.
Henry Hoffman, who has number
of aliases, and who was arrested on
charges of smuggling diamonds
through the port of Boston, is one
of the persons under arrest. Mrs.
Henry Schiller, who also has nu-
merous other cognomens, Is the
other prisoner. The specific charge on
which the prisoners are held Is snug
Cling. Instead of being merely SNUG
glerS, however. it is now alleged that
Hoffman and his companion were impli-
Gated In a robbery in London and in
at least two large burglaries in New
York City.
According to government officials,
both prisoners have conefessed to hav-
ing robbed the home of Mr.. Lloyd,
where the woman was employed and
was apparently a model servant. Hun
dreds of dollars worth Of diamonds
and silver, confiscated by the govern
ment when Hoffman and Mrs. Schiller
were arrested, have been practically
identified by Mr.. Montgomery as hav-
ing been taken from the Lloyd home
in New York.
At the time OF the Lloyd burglary,
| articles to the value of 100000 are said
to have been taken.
Another charge which may be placed
against the accused is that of robbing
| Ansonia hotel in New York of thou
sands of dollars worth of jewelry and
| clothing.
Mrs. Schiller is known as an eX-
pert impersonator of men. Silk hats
and various other articles of mems at
tire were found In her rooms. Ac-
cording OF the government officials Mrs.
Schiller seems willing to accept all
blame, so that Hoffman may be cleared.
Hoffman admits that he met the wo-
man near the Lloyd home, staggering
under a load of valuables she had
stolen. He admits also that he aided
her in escaping. About 270 diamonds
were found in the possession of the
couple when they were arrested.
Previous to the Lloyd robbery, Hoff-
man and Mrs. Schiller are alleged to
have been in London. They are said
to have committed a robbery similar
to that in the Lloyd home and Hoff-
man is said to have confessed that he
buried the plunder beneath a tree.
Later the woman, disguised as man,
dug up the treasure. She was later
ioined by Hoffman and the two fled
to the United States. Both prisoners
have been held to the federal grand
Jury by United States Commissioner
Foote and are now in Jail in default
of bail

his first term Of two years, the state
legislature having recently amended
the city charter so as to provide for
four years tenure of Office for officials
of Greater New York.
The Tammany convention was held
in Carnegie hall amid much enthuiasm:
The fact that the entire ticket had
been decided upon beforehand did not
seem to diminish the ardor of the dele
gates of the five boroughs of the
greater city. They entered upon the
work of ratifying the slate with much
earneStness.
Mr.. Mcclellan was the only member
of the present administration renomi-

occasion to touch upon the question
OF municipal ownership of public utlll-

"As a Democrat" he said, "I believe
that community Is best governed Which
is least governed and that where lndl-
yidual effort and private enterprise can
accomplish the same result as govern

tiles conducted by private enterprise
fail in giving the people adequate ser
vice, then 1 believe that 1T is the duty
of government to take control"
The platform touches on municipal
ownership and declares it has long been
accepted as a Democratic doctrine.
