Moderate and well-directed tariff re-
vision to relieve the American con-
sumner of the onerous tribute now paid
to specially protected interests, and to
curb the monopoly taxing power of the
great industrial trusts is likely. also, to
be prominent in democratic platforms
and in democratic discussion between
now and the November elections.
The protective system was not built
in day, and il cannot be torn down
in year, nor, perhaps, in a decade.
Discriminating duties and export
bounties by other nations may make it
necessary to approach with circum-
spection the complicated task of cut
ting out the robberies of the Dingley
act; but the task must be performed,
and the democratic party is ready to
undertake it.

The fury and Indignation of the peas
ants in Italy over the fact that w. K
Vanderbilt's automobile ran5over and
manned boy while tearing through
the country, is not only natural but
justifiable. That this spirit should
have been intensified almost into mob
violence when the nabob of the ma
chine in which he and his wife and
chauffeur were touring the country, at
tempted TO brush the people aside by
saying something to the effect that the
damages would be taken care of all
right was likewise reasonable. 1t was just
as human as Vanderbilt's remark was
inhuman- He should be very well con-
tent that he escaped with his life.

"Iydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
made me well woman, and i feel so CRATE
full that / am glad to write and tell you OF
my marvellous recovery. 1t brought me
health, new life and vitality"
What Lydia +. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound did for Mrs. Ainsley it will
do for other woman who are in poor
health and ailing.
Its benefits begin when its use begins.
It gives strength and vigor from the
start, and surely makes sick women
well and robust.
Remember Lydia f. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound holds the record for
the greatest number of actual cures of
woman's ills. This fact is attested to
by the thousands of letters from CRATE
full women which are on file in the
Pinkham laboratory.
Women should remember that a cure
for all female diseases actually exists,
and that cure is Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.
If you have symptoms you don't
understand write to Mrs. Pinkham,
Lynn, Mass. for special advice. The
present Mrs. Pinkham is the daughter
in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham, her assis-
tant before her decease, and for
twenty-five years since her advice has
been freely given to sick women.

Because of them men have
