in treating the tagging, torpid liver it Is

them in working order and sec how

When a physician tells a woman, suf.
fering from female trouble, that an
operation is necessary it, of course,
frightenS her.
The very thought of the operating
table and the knife strikes terror TO
her heart. AS one woman expressed
it, when told by her physician that she
must undergo an operation, she felt
that her death knell had sounded.
Our hospitals are full of women
who are there for just such operations!
1t is quite true that these troubles
may reach q stage where an operation
is the only resource, but such cases are
much rarer than is generally supposed,
because a great many women have
been cured by Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound after the doctors
had said an operation must be per-
formed. In fact, up TO the point where
the knife must be used to ecure instant
relief, this medicine is certain to help.
The strongest and most grateful
statements possible TO make come from
women who, by taking Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound, have
escaped serious operations.
Margrite RYAN, Treasurer of ST.
Andrews Society, indianapolis, Ind,

Bands and Buttons.
from The New Iork Sun

IRON the NSW 1Ofh sun.
Why is that every mans hat hasa
hat band? The question is ~propounded
by Professor Frederick Starr. The pro-
fessor knows the answer, too. He told
all about it in q lecture ut Chautauqua.
You viii say that is is for ornament,
ne surmises, but declares that a black
ribbon on a black hat does not strike
him as excessively ornamental.
Why is it that every mans hat has a
bow on the hat band, and that bow al
ways n the left side?
The reason is hat once there was q
time when a piece Of cloth thrown over
the head and tied with a band of cloth
served for q hat. The hat band was
there to hold on the hat.
But why was that band always tied
On the left side? The reason is that
those were the days of sword fighters
also. If the bow or rosette would have
been IN the right side it would have
been in the way. Naturally, therefore,
it was placed on the left side to be out
Of the way.
There are other interesting survivals.
What is the reason for buttons On boys
short trousers, just above the knee?
There was q time when it was the fash
ion for grown men TO wear short Gus
ers, also. They We're very proud of
shapely legs, and wore these ~rousers
very tight SO as TO show off the shape
of their limbs TO good advantage.
Now, if they had attempted to pull
these tight trousers on without some
way of relieving the strain there would
have been danger of splitting. Accord
ingly buttons were placed along the
sides, and when the rousers had once
been pulled on safely the trousers We're
buttoned up.
Again, what was the origin of the
buttons on the sleeves of mems coats?
There was a time when it was the fash
ion for men to wear lace cuffs on their
undergarments. If these had been di-
rectly exposed to the weather they
would quickly have become dirty.
So they wore jacket sleeves over them
to protect them. Then whenever they
wished to show their lace cuffs to their
friends they had merely 10 ~unbutton
the sleeves and snow the beautiful cuffs
beneath.
What is the reason FOR the difference
between the clothing of men and Of
women?
The difference arose in the conflict
between the northern and the southern
types at the time when the barbarians
of the north conquered Rome. The
Romans, men n women. had worn
the loose garment Of the southern type.
The barbarians, on the other hand.
wore the more utilitarian garments OF
the northern type.
Now the men OF Rome were quick
to see the advantages Of the new dress
and were quick 10 adopt it. The wom-
en-, on the other hand. like the women
of the present day, were too conserva-
tive 10 take up these new tangled no.
tons, especially as they came from the
hated, rude conquerors Jf Rome. There
have been minor changes since that
day, but the women's dress of the pres
ent time. especially the dress of the
south, ornamental. bright, and attract
i've. is nevertheless ~baTbaric.

COLORADO POLITICS.
Campaign in the Hands of a Bunch Of
MiiIionaires.


The state election in Colorado next
month will be an interesting affair. Be
hind the selection of governor is a
fight for United States senator in which
Guggenheim, the smelter king. and
three other multi-millionaires are pitted
against each other The case here is
like Rhode Island. Everybody wants
TO go to the legislature SO as to get
enough money to clear the mortgage on
his ZONE. The politicians have not re-
covered from the labor roubleS of q
year ago, and the mere mention OF the
opposition OF organized labor to a cam
didate has about the same effect on
the leaders as a locomotive shrek on a
skittish horse. After having been re-
fused by five men who objected to q
certain candidate or the ticket, h re-
publican nomination for governor was
accepted by q Methodist preacher. the
Rev. DIR. Henry =. Buchtel, formerly a
missionary TO Bulgaria, later pastor of
several churches in Indiana and now
chancellor of the University of Denver.
The candidate to whom the five pre-
vious nominees objected is William IL.
Gabbert, chief justice Of the supreme
court, who is q candidate for re-elec-
ton. Their objection to him is based
on the allegation that he favors corpo-
rations in his decisions and was against
the miners in their troubles. The DEM
ocrats nave nominated Alva Adams,
twice governor, and three times pre-
viously the party nominee. He asserts
that he was counted out two years ago,
and now seeks election as a vindication.
He Is q strong man, and is expected
to make q good showing. The indie
pendents have named Benjamin y.
Lindsey, who framed the juvenile court
law, and who is judge OF that court.
The socialists have named for governor
William ID. Haywood, secretary of the
Western District of Miners, now con-
fined in the Idaho state penitentiary
charged with the murder of ex-GoV-
ernor Steunenberg, of that state. He
was a prisoner when he was nominated.
The courts of Colorado, are probably
criticised more freely than those of any
other state. On more than one occasion
even justices of the supreme our have
been hanged in effigy. The republicans
at first nominated Philip b. Stewart,
a young banker and friend of President
Roosevelt, for governor, but he refused
to remain On the ticket with Gabbert.
Roosevelt had "a, 200 majority in 1904,
and Mcdonald, republican, was chosen
governor. Just who will be elected In
November will depend on the million
aires.

Vegetable Compound had saved other women
from serious operations / decided to try it,
and in less than four months | was entirely

fulness."
Miss Margret Merkley, of 275 Sd
Street, Milwaukee, Wis, writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
''Loss of strength, extreme nervousness,
severe shooting pains through the pelvic
organs, cramps, bearing-down pains, and an
irritable disposition compelled me to seek
medical advice. The doctor, after making
an examination, said that | had a serious
female trouble and liberation. and advised an
operation as my only hope. To this | strongly
objected-and | decided as q last resort to try
Lydia +. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
ITO my surprise the liberation healed, all
the bad symptoms disappeared, and | am once
more strong, vigorous n well; and | can
not express my thanks for what it has done
for me-"
Serious feminine troubles are steadi-
" on the increase among women-and

every woman should try Lydia Il.

For thirty ear Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound has been curing
the worst forms of female complaints,
all functional troubles, inflammation,
liberation, falling and displacement,
weakness, irregularities, indigestion

who could read the many grateful

say, accidentally. All scientists agree
that at Herculaneum most of h miss

Greek and Roman authors and many
art treasures must still lie buried.
Hitherto there have been very strong

idea that this great work, which will
increase the knowledge OF the whole

The professor then approached King
