Perry Belmont Objects.

In letter to w. P. Mitchell, presi- ] ent of the Democratic club of New York, Perry Belmont objects to the statement hat President Roosevelt is a born demo- brat" which occurred in a recent address bf the club Any democratic commit lee would stultify itself in the eyes of |he country by asserting that the Presi- bent Is in reality democrat" says Mr. 
 The New Yorker in discussing the Presidents apparent agreement with the democrats on railroad legislation then lays: Tt is absolutely impossible to be- |ieve in the President as a defender of popular rights against the aggressions bf railroad or other corporate power in |iew of the indisputable fact that his ad Fisors are headed by Mir.

treating Wrong Disease

Many times women call on their fanlilg
physicians, suffering. as they imagine,
one from dyspepsia, another from heart
disease, another from liver or kidney
disease, another from nervous exhaustion
or prostration, another with pain here and
there, and in this way they all present
alike to themselves and their easy-going
and indifferent, or Over-busy doctor, sep
arate and distinct diseases, for which he,
assuming them to be such, prescribes his
pills and potions. In reality, they are all
only symptoms, caused by some uterine
disease. The ply Sician, ignorant of the
cause Of suffering, encourages this prac-
tice until large bill g are made. The suf-
fering patient gets no better, but probably
worse, by reason OF the delay. wrong
treatment and consequent complications.
A proper medicine like DR.. Pierce's Fa-

Is Among this class the symptoms Of
female diseases Are early manifest by
weak and aching backs, pain in the
lower limbs and lower part of the
stomach. In consequence of frequent
wetting of the feet, periods become
painful and irregular, and frequently
there are faint and dizzy spells, with
loss of appetite, until life is burden.
All these symptoms point to a de-

cured by Lydia Z. Pinkham's Vegeta-

they did me no good.
