Periodic
Palms..

DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills
are a most remarkable remedy
for the relief of periodic pains,
backache, nervous or sick head
ache, or any of the distress
ing aches and pains that cause
women so much suffering.
AS pain is weakening, and
leaves the system in an ex-
hausted condition, it is wrong
to suffer a moment longer than
necessary, and you should take
the Anti-Pain Pills on first in
dication of an attack.
If taken as directed you may
have entire confidence in their
effectiveness, as we'll as in the
fact that they will leave no dis
agreeable aftcr-effects.
They contain no morphine,
opium, choral, cocaine or other
dangerous drugs.
"For long time I have suffered
greatly with spells of backache. that
seem almost more than 1 can endure.
These attacks come on every month,
and last two or three days. l have
never been able to get anything that
would give me much relief until be-
began the use of DIR. Miles Anti-Pain
Pills, and they always relieve me in q
short time. My. sister, who suffers
the same way, has used them with
the same results" MRS. PARK,

NEW PRIMARY LAW
GIVEN 4 TRIAL.
Illinois Voters Show
Their Preference for
Candidates at Polls

CHICAGO, Aug. 4.-For the first time
in the history Of Illinois primaries of
all the parties were held on the same
day and the voters were given an op-
portunity to express their preferences
through their ballots for candidates
from United States Senator to Sheriff.
The new primary law passed by the
special session Of the Legislature last
spring was given its first trial and gave
general satisfaction.
The voters cast their ballots for three
candidates for United States Senator
Shelby NJ. Cullom. former Governor
Yates and William c. Webster. The
Democrats had no candidates for United
States Senator.
The vote for United States Senator
was merely an expression of prefer
ence, and is not binding on the mem
bers of the Legislature. In Chicago
Senator Cullom received nearly twice
as many votes as former Governor
Yates, and from scattered returns
throughout the State the indications
are that he will carry the State by a
handsome majority.
Both Congressman Lorimer and Mann
secured a majority Of the votes cast in
their districts. In both districts a
heavy vote was cast.
In the Second District Congressman
Mann won by a large majority and will
go before the convention with enough
delegates pledged TO insure his nomina-
ton.

suit of the Liberal

RULES SAVE TIME

LONDON. Aug. Aft nothing sensa-
tional was achieved, or no great repu-
tations were won or lost, the new Lib
eral Parliament. which adjourned to-
day, distinguished itself as a working
Parliament. The reformed rules of pro-

musical copyright bill and a large num-
Der of minor bills were passed, and
the trades dispute bill, the working
mems compensation bill and the mer-
chants progress bill are all in an ad-
vanced condition.
The feature commanding interest in
the autumn session will be the struggle
just opened between the House of
Lords and the House of Commons over
the education bill, and it may prove
historic struggle. for lord Lansdowne,
Lord Palsbury and other peers are said
to be determined to throw out the bill

davit That Tells of His Verbal
Lease.

alleges that the owners of the prop
erty, Catherine and ]. w. Shorter. are

ing and says that 1t was agreed that
he should have lease for five years.
The first year he was to pay $40 a

CONTRACTORS WANT MORE
MONEY FOR THEIR TEAMS
Inform Board of Works That Increase
Is Caused by Raise In Wages of
the Drivers.

The contractors who are furnishing
teams and wagons to the Board Of
Public Works yesterday notified the
board that the price of double teams
would be increased next Wednesday
morning from $6 TO 81. A. B. Clute.
who supplies the teams for street
sweeping, informed the board that the
wages of drivers of teams would be
raised from $3.50 a day TO SO day. j.
G. Harney said that he was getting 81
per day for his teams from private con-
Germs and the city should pay the same
rate. Harney said that drivers who
handle bricks are getting s3.25 day.
The board decided to take up the
matter at Its meeting next Wednesday
afternoon. The Commissioners of Works
realize that the increase in the price is
q just one in view of the raise in wages
exacted by the Teamsters Union. The
question to be decided is whether the
funds on hand will warrant the COM
pliance with the demands of the con-
ira ctors. The increase will cause a
deficit in the funds which will have to
be met by an additional appropriation
from the Supervisors before the end Of
the fiscal year. II the increase is not
granted all the work of paving and
cleaning the city streets will come to a
standstill.

duction in Freight Tariffs,

HELENA, Aug. 4.-Montana shippers

prise today when both the Northern
Pacific and the Great Northern made
the announcement that on August Is
next there would be substantial re-
duction in freight rates, both through

pages of commodity rates, which show
a great variance, but all have reduc-

here to the recent convention, with de-
mands that Governor Toole call a spe-
cial session Of the Legislature to pass a

WHITNEY AND McLOUGRLIN
SUCCUMB TO LONG BROTHERS S
James and Elliott Sustain Their VIM
ming Streak by Taking Smith
and Hardy Into Camp.

Several good practice matches were
played on the California tennis courts
doubles between the Long brothers.
Herbert and Melville. and Robert
whitney and Maurice Mclaughlin.
Both teams played fast tennis and
they proved quite evenly matched. All
three sets were close, the Long broth
ers winning the first and third and
losing the second. Young McLough-
lin was in fast company but he cas-
lily held his own.
All four contestants play a swift
driving game. and while the rallies
were not long as rule, the match
was a fast one. The score was GA.
6-8, GA.
George James and Fletcher Elliott
kept up their winning streak, taking g
Sumner Hardy and Grant Smith into
camp quite handily. Neither Hardy
nor Smith played UP to form, while
James and Elliott played the best
game they put up since they Joined
forces. Hardy showed a lack of prac-
tice and had difficulty in finding the
court. Smith, too, made numerous err
rors.
Coast Champion James played a
slashing game, and his steady partner
favor OF James and Elliott was GA, GA,
GA.
The new team is practicing hard for
the coast championship doubles and
will make a strong bid for the hon
ors. Elliott is improving rapidly and
playing great tennis in doubles. James
plays doubles much better than sin
giles. and with steady partner like
Elliott will be hard to beat.

played two sets, each winning and
losing one MacGavin won the first
set but grew weary in the second,
which the doctor annexed easily. The
score was Ga, 3-6.

grove rather easily The latter made
good showing in the first set. but

Anglers THEM.
Artists Score Man Whose
Morals Were Shocked
by Student Catalogue
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

LONDON, Aug. 4.-"Comstock's an
ASST
These words are those of one of the
greatest artists in the world. who is
known equally in England and Amer
lea, when he was asked for his COM
ment on Mr.. Comstock's action In New
York raiding the Art Students League
premises to confscate their illustrated
catalogue. Comstocks interference has
created much interest and amazement
here
IF the religious and moral world had
to choose between Comstock and the
Venus of Milo, what do you suppose
would happen to Comstock? It's too
ridiculous for words.
IT can't think" added the artist,
that the intelligent American people,
who today are the greatest benefactors
of the art world, will tolerate such pro-
ceedings."
The Evening Standard in an editorial
says:
I'VE don't grudge America the pos
session of Comstock. We hope he may
stay there and live long, but not with
his energies unimpaired."
