VIII PAVE INTERSECTIONS.
HanEey & Richie to Complete TlleiE
Contract.

Hanley & Richie. contractors, will
complete the paving Of the intersection
OF Sixth and Kansas avenues with
brick.
The contract was entered into be-
tween the city and Hanley & Richie
about three months ago, one-fourth OF
the intersection was put in and a Delay
due to weather and a lack of suitable
brick caused the work to drag along.
Hanley & Richie wish to complete the
contract now and called at the city hall
today for that purpose.
There is some question whether II
will be agreeabl to the majority of the
councilmen to put in brick at the inter-
section, with asphalt paving surround
ing it on three sides, and stone on the
fourth. The mayor has been busy try
ing to find out what the members OF
the council think about it, at the same
he doesn't want to arouse any oppo-
sition from the property owners The
pavement was first put down as a trial
of brick with an asphalt filler.

ty Republican politics will elect one of
its members as chairman of the county
central committee by default tomorrow
at the meeting of the committee at

~anti-Tnachine' gang can get mighty
busy at once
Rees vansant is already said to have
enough votes pledged him to elect him
to the Office. He is being groomed by
the machine, according to the gossip.
+. H. Forbes, Ward Page and g. w.
Eaton are talked Of as candidates
among the Law and Order crowd. but
no concentration has yet been made on
any of them, and not q single one will
openly avow himself a candidate.
P. H. Forbes said II will not have
it at all. I don't know anything about
the matter. I have not investigated
Ward Page says that people have
talked to him about running, but that
is as far as he has interested himself
Eaton is non-cOmmittal and will say
nothing.
Some of the more vigorous and en-
ergetic members Of the. Law and Order
force tried to stir up some enthusiasm
this morning and viii keep at it to
see If they cannot caucus tonight on
tomorrow. tt is very likely that no
opposition will be pitted against Van

member of the committee for a num-
Der of years and at all times an en-
ergetic worker.

morrow. It is planned to have the

The day has been AZ ideal one for

Topeka for their convention, just hot
enough to warm them to the tasks

not SO intensely hot as to .stifle. There

all of this has vanished and there is

Z All women work some in their
homes, some in church, and some in
the whirl Of society. And in stores,
mills and shops tens of thousands are
on the never-ceasing treadmill, earning
their daily bread.
All are subject to the same physical
laws; all suffer alike from the same
physical disturb ance, and the nature of
their duties, in many cases, quickly
drifts them into the horrors of all
kinds of female complaints, tumors,
liberation, falling and displace-
ments or perhaps irregularity or
suppression, causing backache, ner-
vousness, irritability and lassitude.
They especially require an invigorat-
ing, sustaining medicine which will
strengthen the female organism and
enable them to bear easily the fatigues
Of the day. to sleep well at night, and
to rise refreshed and cheerful.
How distressing to see a woman
struggling to earn livelihood or per-
form her household duties when her
back and head are aching, she is SO
tired she can hardly drag about or
stand up, and every movement causes
pain, the origin Of which is due to
some arrangement of the female or
ganism.
Miss F. Orser, Of Il Warrenton Street,
Boston, tells women how to avoid such
suffering; she writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:--

female irregularities. Ny back ached; had
