A nervous, irritable mother, often on
the verge of Mysteries, is unfit to care
for children; it ruins a child's DISPOSE
ton and reacts upon herself. The
trouble between children and their
mothers too often is due to the fact
that the mother has some female weak
ness, and she is entirely unfit to bear
the strain upon her nerves that govern
ing children involves; it is impossible
for her to do anything calmly.
The ills of women act like firebrand
upon the nerves, consequently nine
tenths of the nervous prostration, ner-
vous dependency, " the blues" sleep
lessness, and nervous irritability of
women arise from some arrangement
of the female organism.
Do you experience fits of depression
with restlessness, alternating with
extreme irritability? Are your spirits
easily affected, so that one minute you
laugh, and the next minute you feel
like crying?
Do you feel something like a ball ris-
ing in your throat and threatening to
choke you; all the senses perverted,
morbidly sensitive TO light and sound /;
pain in the abdominal region, and
between the shoulders bearing down
pains; nervous dyspepsia and almost
continually cross and snappy?
If so, your nerves are in shattered
condition, and you are threatened with
nervous prostration
Proof is monumental that nothing in
the world is better for nervous prostra-
tion than Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound; thousands and thou
sands of women can testify to this fact.

rather than yield to any one of the
terms offered by the liberal party and
those in arms against the govern
ment
The liberal leaders characterize the
conduct of the government as treason
to the republic, while Secretary of
War Taft regards it as an unwarrant-
ed and dishonorable attempt to force
the hand of the United States into
intervention. This it has been stated,
is precisely what the Roosevelt admin
istration had been most anxious to
avoid.
Calls Special Session.
President Palma has called
special session of congress for Fri
day, when he will present the resigna-
lions of himself and Vice-President
Mendez Capote. The moderates, how
ever, will not attend tho session of
congress, for in hurriedly called ma
tional moderate assembly, on
Tuesday afternoon, they decided unani
mously simply to quit forthwith. They
will not even attend the approaching
session or have anything more to do
with the government of Cuba, alleg-
ing that they have been unJustIy treat
ed by President Roosevelt's commits
sioners.
AS the moderates and the national
lists comprise more than twothirds of
each house, there will be no quorum.
This will block action and prove that
the structure of constitutional govern.

mains but the United States to take
hold.

notwithstanding the fact that 1t had
been threatened by certain or the gov
eminent officials, and it practically
caused him to abandon his efforts to-
ward a settlement that would continue
the sovereignty of the republic.
The liberals and indeoendent Gu
ban newspapers published extra
editions last night, charging that the
attitude of the government was as
sumed for the sole purpose of provoli-
ing American intervention, and in
sisting that the government officers
were lacking in patriotism in sur
rendering the government to foreign
ers rather than to a party OF their own
people.
