one woman in twenty-five but that
female organism, and this is the secret
of SO many unhappy homes.
No woman can be amiable, light
hearted and happy, joy to her -has-
band and children, and perform the
duties incumbent upon her, when she
is suffering with baclxache, headache,
nervousness, sleeplessness, bearing
down pains, displacements, spinal
weakness or diseased organs.
Irritability and snappy retorts take
the place of pleasantness, and all sun
shine is driven out of the home, and
lives are wrecked by woman's great
enemy-female trouble.

that you could do that. Oh, yes; you
lo not know much about the liquor
business; you can make it of chemi-
Gals. l said do you make it pure,
does it retain its purity? His an
>wcr was that it was not poisonous
but that it was a very easy matter to
doctor whiskey. He said further
that the first shipment was about ten
thousand dollars ($l0,000) and they
trembled in their boots for fear it
would come back, but it didn't come,
and when the check came the next
shipment was worse. What they did
with it or how they got rid of it I
cannot imagine. He declined, how
ever. to give any name to whom he
had given rebates.
The Chairman: Did he give YOU
the date?
Witness: No. he didn't. This con-
vcrsation took place about Is months
ago and was repeated last August.
Mr.. Lyon: Where was it repeated7 2
Witness: In Baltimore in the
house for which travel. The con-
versation took place there in the
office both times.
Q-Did the repeating Of this con-
versation take place in the presence
of any one from this State2
Ayes, sir.
Q-Will you give the name of that
party7
A-Jesse r. Smith.
Q-What was the occasion Of that
being repeated7
A-The statement, Mr.. Lyon, was
SO astounding to me that I simply
felt that | would like for some one
else from the state to hear that state
ment and I asked young Mr.. Ham
berger to repeat the statement he
made to me. which he did.
Q-That conversation took place
in Baltimore as l understand?
Ayes. sir.

Ayes, sir.
Q-Now, YOU say that he made the
statement that this first shipment
was very poor liquor?
Ayes. sir.
Q-And that he expected it to be
returned by the diSpenSary Off
cialS?
Ayes. sir.
Q-But it Wasn't it9
Ayes. sir.
Q-And having received his pay.
his next shipment down here was
poorer than the first and it wasn't
turned down?
Ayes. sir.
