ASIATIC CHOLERA IN EUROPE
The Spread of the Infection in
Prussia is Creating Alarm.
The Acting Promptly
to Prevent the Disease Assum-
ing Epidemic Form.

Berlin, Sept. 2.-The spread of chol-
era from two localities on the River
Weichsel, five days ago, to 81 cases in
L localities extending from the Baltic
to the River Warthe, $50 miles south,
and its appearance in Hamburg, has
given an unpleasant thrill to the people
Of Germany, for it may mean a long and
steady fight as in 1928 to prevent the
disease from getting beyond control. In
those years it is estimated that $780, 600
persons died in Russia from cholera.
The Prussian government is keenly
aware of the possibilities Of the danger,
which so far is not regarded as giving
occasion for apprehension. A commit
tee of the cabinet, consisting of DR..
Studt, minister of medical affairs; Herr
Won Sudde, minister of state and minis
ter of public works; Herr Moller, min
lister Of commerce and industry, and DR..
Won Bethmann-HOllweg, minister of the
interior, has the general direction of
the preventive measures. Numerous
psychologists have been sent into the
infected districts to assist in the sur
veillance of persons who have contract
ed cholera.

Doctor Brigham Says
MANY PHYSICIANS PRESCRIBE
Lydia 4. PinkhasasSS
Vegetable Compound

The wonderful power Of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound over
the diseases of w~omankind is not be-
cause it is a stimulant, not because it
IS a palliative, but simply because 1t is
the most wonderful tonic and recon-
structor ever discovered to act directly
upon the generative organs, positively
| curing disease and restoring health and
vigor.
Marvellous cures r reported from
all parts of the country by women who
have been cured, trained nurses who
have witnessed cures and physicians
who have recognized the virtue of
lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable. Com
pound, and are fair enough to give
credit where tits due.
If physicians dared to be frank and
open, hundreds of themwould acknowl-
edge that they constantly prescribe
lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound in severe cases of Finale ills, as
they know by experience it can be re-
lied upon to effect a cure. 1he follow
ing letter proves it.
DR.. s.. G. Brigham, of 4 Brigham
Park, Fitchburg, Mass, writes:
at gives me great pleasure to say that l
have found lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound very efficacious, and often pre-
scribe it in my practice for female difficulties.
my oldest daughter found it very beLef-
cial for uterine trouble some time ago, and my
Youngest daughter is now taking it for a fe-
male weakness, and is surely gaining in health
and strength.
II freely advocate it as q most reliable spe-
cifc in all diseases to which women are sub
iect, and give it honest endorsement"
Women who are troubled with pain
full or irregular menstruation, bloating
Tor flatulence), Ieucorrhea, falling, in.
lammation or liberation of the uterus,
ovarian troubles, that bearing-down
feeling, dizziness, faintness, indiges-
ton nervous prostration or the blues,
should take immediate action to ward
off the serious consequences, and be
restored to perfect health and strength
by taking Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegeta-
BILE Compound, and then write to Mrs.
Pinkham, at Lynn. Mass, for further
free advice. No living person has had
the benefit of a wider experience in
treating female ills. She has guided
thousands to health. Every suffering
woman should ask for and follow her
advice if she wants to be strong and
well.

WHITE A MASTER OF FIGURES
He Could Always Show n Surplus
of Revenue Even in the Face
of Financial Ruin.

St. Petersburg, Sept. IN. Kova-
levsky, who stands high as a states
man in the opinion Of the Russian pub
lie, said to the a correspondent:
"Witte is an incompatible juggler
with figures. He was minister of
finance for a decade, and he ruined the
country, but he always showed a sur
plus in the revenues. Russia will never
know the real price which it has paid
to Japan for peace. The bureaucracy
is glad to have it's hands free from the
tasA of depressing the interior prov
inces. Witte will become premier, will
be created a count and will undertake
to savev the lettering a~utocracy."

Meerschaum is mined like coal.
It is a soft, soaplike stone, and in
Asia Minor it's mining is an important
industry. The crude meerschaum is
called hamtash. 1t is yellowish white
in color, and a red clay coat or skin
envelops it. The blocks cost from S25
to 5000 a carload. They are soft enough
to cut with a knife. These blocks in
summer are dried by exposure to the
sun. In winter a heated room is rec
essary. Finally, the meerschaum
blocks are sorted into II grades,
wrapped in cotton and packed in cases
with the greatest care.
