 An interesting story was recently told bv a politician, who said that President Roosevelt was the real cause of the defeat of Representative Wads- worth. the Speakers father. The President. it was said, resented the at tack which Representative Wadsworth as chairman of the House Committed on Agriculture. made on him when the beef trust inspection Legislation was pending in Congress
 The President. the story ran. was determined that he would end Wads- worth's Congress career, Nand when Wadsworth was renominatcd this year the President sent his own confiden' tial men into WadswOrth's district with orders to accomplish his defeat MT.

OF all the diseases known, with
which women are afflicted, chronic
kidney disease is the most fatal. In
fact, unless early and correct treatment
is applied, the weary patient seldom
survives.
Being fully aware of this, Lydia
E. Pinkham, early in her career, gave
exhaustive study TO the subject, and in
producing her great remedy for
woman's ills - Lydia Il. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound-was careful to
see that it contained the correct combi-
nation of herbs which was sure to con-
troll that fatal disease, woman's kidney
troubles. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound is the only one espe-
cially prepared for women, and thou
sands have been cured of serious kidney
arrangements by it. arrangements of
the feminine organs quickly affect the
kidneys, and when a woman has such
symptoms as pain or weight in the
lOins, baclache, bearing-dOwn pains,
scalding or burning sensations or de-
posits in the urine, unusual thirst,
swelling of hands and feet, swelling
under the eyes or sharp pains in the
back, running through the groin, she
may infer that her kidneys are affected
and should lose no time in combating
the disease with Lydia +. Pinllham' S
Vegetable Compound, the wOman's
remedy for woman's ills.
The following letters show how
marvelOusly successful it is.
