Mrs. III. W~i att

Mrs. Pinkham claims that there is a
kind of dyspepsia that is caused by
arrangement of the female organism,
and which, while it causes a disturb
ance similar to ordinary indigestion,
cannot BE relieved without medicine
which not only acts as stomach tonic,
but has peculiar tonic effect on the fe.
male organism.
AS proof of this theory re call at
tention to the case of Mrs. Maggie
Wright, Brooklyn, N. Y, who was
completely cured by Lydia E. Pink
ham Vegetable Compound after every
thing else had failed. She writes:
For two years suffered with dyspepsia
which so degenerated the entire system that
was unable to attend to my daily duties. I
felt weak and nervous, and nothing that ate
tasted good and it caused disturbance in my
stomach. tried different dyspepsia cures,
but nothing seemed TO help me. / was adj
vised to give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound trial, and was happily surprised
to find that it acted like a fine tonic, and in a
fewdays began to enjoy and properly digest
my food. My recovery was rapid, and m
five weeks was well woman. l have rec
commended it to many suffering women"
No other medicine in the world has
received such widespread and unquali-
fed endorsement or has such a record
of cures of female troubles, as has Lydia
E. P;nkhaln's Vegetable Compound.

TANNERS WIFE
TO HAVE RICHES

Milwaukee, Dec. 1.-Riches may
come to Mrs. Carl Forst, a humble
tanners wife, as the result of the
death of wealthy uncle in Germany.
Yesterday when Mrs. Forst answered
her door bell the postman handed her
a letter all plastered over with for
eign postage stamps. The letter con-
veyed the information that a rich
uncle in Germany had died, leaving
a large estate.
This is to be divided among a linn
tied number of heirs, three of whom
reside in Milwaukee. Mrs. Forst was
too much upset to consider the mat
ter calmly. She had always known
she had rich relatives in Germany,
she said, but the hope that some day
part of this wealth might be given
to her was exceedingly remote.
I'VE are only poor folks" said Mrs.
Forst my husband works in the
Pfister & Vogel tannery. l do not
know how much there will be for us,
maybe not much in United States
money, but in the old country my
uncle was considered very rich. He
was my mothers brother, and his
name was Zenger. His estate is in
Dusseldorf, Germany, where my
mother came from. We have not
heard from him for 40 years and con-
sequently never dreamed this"

twenty-five years ago the custom of

the old custom OF New Years calls and

ANOTHER HELP
FOR PEASANTS

st. Petersburg, Dec. 1.-Another
step in the direction of equalizing peas
antry with other classes has been
taken. The emperor has signed law
permitting peasants to mortgage their
lands in order to obtain money foi
improvements for the purchase of I'M
Elements or for obtaining additional
lands. In order to prevent the explo-
itation of the peasantry by unscrup-
ulous, irresponsible individuals or cor
porations, money can only be bor-
rowed from the government or agrar-
ian banks. Hitherto, under the COM
munal system, peasants did not have
authority to mortgage their farms,
which were regarded as belonging to
the state until payments for the lano
were fully completed.

DECLARES HIS ABILITY TO
PROVE HIS INNOCENCE.
CALLED IN VAIN TO WARN
Could Get no Answer When He Tried
to inform Next Station That
Train Was Coming-let Second
Train in on Block According to
Instructions.

Lynchburg, Va, Dec 3.-The tele-
graph operator, G. d. Mattox. who is
charged by the officials of the South
ern railway with responsibility for
the wreck at Lawyers, has been To-
Gated at his boarding house near
Rangoon. He denies that ne is re-
sponsible for the wreck and says he
has made no effort to avoid arrest.
Saturday l.. D. Mattox, brother OF
the operator, seeing reports that
Southern railway detectives had
been securing the country for his
brother, went to Campbell county to
interview his brother. At night he
returned to Lynchburg and gave out
the follow.ng
My brother was on duty at Ran
COON on the night of the 2Sth. He
can prove that he did not go to sleep
and that he did not leave the ONCE
two minutes. When the train, No.
80, approached, he let it in the block
between Rangoon and Lawyers. He
let 1T into the block under instruc-
lions and he can prove by witnesses
that he tried three times to get the
operator at Lawyers in order to no.
tify him of the approach of 33. He
could not. however, get a response
from the Lawyers operator
"The day operator can prove that
he found him on duty when he re-
ported at Z o'clock to relieve him.
He did not run away after the ac-
cldent. He does not feel that he is
to blame in this matter and he has
made no effort to avoid arrest"
Mattox declared that his brother
left his boarding house only once
since the wreck, when he went out
for a drive. He was practically
Frustrated by the wreck and was so
depressed that his friends thought
drive would do him good. He re-
turned 10 his boarding house after
this drive and has been there since.
He did not know, his brother said,
that any officers of the law had
been searching for him. Saturday
l.. ID. Mattox was informed that le-
tectives were looking for his
brother and he went to the local po-
lice headquarters, where he said he
found that no request had been made
for the arrest of his brother Local
officials of the Southern were also
notified where the operator could be
found and that he had never been a
mile from the telegraph Office. 1t is
said he is ready to give himself up
at any time.

FILLING UP THE CANADIAN WEST
The American settler Is Welcomed
CANADA.

The American settler Is Welcomed
to Canada.
A number of the leading newspapers
on this side of the line have been no.
ticing the growth of the Canadian
West in recent years, and draw atten-
ton to the fact that there seems to be
no abatement of the influx of settlers
to that great grain-growing country.
The Buffalo Express thus refers to the
subject:
Canada West continues to grow.
There were ALA homesteads entries
there in July of this year, as against
3,571 in July, 1905. Canada plumes
herself over this fact with becoming
pride. But what appears to make our
neighbors happiest is the statement
that of these 4.1T4 homesteaders, 1,212
were from this side of the line. Little
is said about the 81 Canadians who re-
crossed the border to take up homes
IN Canada West. of of the sos from
Great Britain, or of the 1926 from
nom British countries 1t appears that
the item in this July report that makes
Canada rejoice most is this of the 1.2l2
American farmers who decided to try
their fortunes in Canada West.

other farming States, and go into Can

country. They take capital with them,
too. say Canadian papers proudly. In
every way they are welcome over
there"
AS the Express well says, the Amer
lean is welcomed to Canada, and the
reasons given are sufficient to invite
the welcome. The American farmer
knows thoroughly the farming condi-
tons that prevail in the Canadian prai-
rie provinces. and is aware of every
phase Of agricultural development in
recenr years. In practical knowledge
of what is wanted TO get the largest
return for labor and Investment he Is
by long odds superior to any European
settler. He knows what is required to
Dring success, ana ne is aDle ana Will

apprehension to the successful Cana
dian farmer.
The agent of the Canadian Govern
ment, whose address appears else
where. says that the difference be-
tween the manners and customs of the
farmer from Dakota. Oregon or Min

CANADIAN AMBASSADOR.
Seriously Asitated as England's Dip
lomat at WASHINGTON.

London, Dec. 1.-The Mail takes up
the agitation for the appointment of
Canadian as ambassador at Wash
ington. The paper says:
'Il would be a wise course IL the
government is anxious to consolidate
the empire. Canada has suffered in
the past through the ignorance and
shortcomings Of British diplomats;
witness the Ashburton treaty of 1912
(as to the boundary between Maine

OF 1886 (the territorial dispate be-
tween Great Britain and the United
States settled by treaty., and the
Alaskan boundary arbitration. Never
was there such an opportunity for re-
pairing these mistakes. II cannot be
alleged that a Canadian as an ambas-
sador would be likely to take up an
extravagant or dangerous position in
his treatment Of questions between
the United States and Canada. The

CAUSES BIG SENSATION
Attorneys for Defendant Head of

Delay but Court Orders Trial to
Go on-Will Turn States Evil
dence.

Chicago, Dec. 1.-Secrets of the in
ternational brotherhood of teamsters
are to be given to the public in
Chicago court. This sensational de-
velopment was made certainty yes
terday when the opponents of Cor
nelius P. Shea, president of the organ
ization, who together with 16 other
members of the union were placed on
trial on charges involving conspiracy
during the teamsters' strike year
ago. Preceding the taking of testi-
mony four defendants, led by Albert
Young, former president Of the in
ternational brotherhood and now head
Of a rival organization, who for some
time has been fighting Shea for the
control of older organization, pleaded
guilty and declared they would rurn
states evidence.
The surrender of the four defend
ants caused a stampede among the
attorneys for the union and delay was
asked for on the ground that the blow
given the defense was too serious to
overcome in a short time. The mo-
ton was overruled, however, and the
trial was begun.
Assistant States Attorney Holt
opened the case for the state In his
address he traced the history OF the
transfers strike of 1905, and blamed
Shea and his companions for the law
lessness and bloodshed. Those VINO
pleaded guilty besides Young were
William Kelly, business agent OF the
coal Transfers union; Michael Muir
ply and Joseph Schultze, teamsters,
all of whom are anti-Shea men.
