Warfields First New York Appearance

David Warfield, though reekoned at
present one of Americas very greatest
character actors, had a difficult task to
get a start in his profession. After sew
eral failures in San Francisco, says Sue

fate in the east

New York That was in 1890. l hung about
the theatrical agencies, but was told there
was nothing doing One cold evening
in the early winter I drifted into a con-
cert hall over in Eighth avenue. where
you can see the show by buying glass
of beer, and struck the manager for a
job
"'when can you go on?' he asked, siz-
ing me up
Tonight l answered quickly. I've got
a dress suit. can go over to my room and
get it and be back in half an hour
All right, said the manager. I'll take
a chance on you. You've struck me at
good time. I'm a little shy of talent to-
night

The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1906-09-23

An eminent physician says that
women are not truthful; they will lie
to their physician This statement
should be qualified women do tell the
truth, but not the whole truth, to a
male physician, but this is only in re-
gard to those painful and troublesome
disorders peculiar to their sex.
1t Is a terrible ordeal to a delicate,
sensitive, refined woman to be obliged
to answer certain questions when those
questions are asked even by her family
physician. This is especially the case
with unmarried women.
Is it any wonder, then, that women
continue to suffer and that doctors
fail to cure female diseases when they
cannot get TIE proper information to
work on?
This is the reason why thousands and
thousands of women are now CORE
spending with Mrs. Pinkham. To her
they can and do give every symptom,
so that she really knows more about
the true condition of her patients,
through her correspondence with them,
than the physician who personally
questions them.
Ifyou suffer from any form of trouble
peculiar to women, write at once to
Mrs. Pinlzham, Lynn, Mass, and she
will advise you free of charge.
The fact that this great boon, which
is extended freely to women by Mrs.
Pinl1ham, is appreciated, the thou
sands of letters received by her prove.
Many such grateful letters as the fol-
lowing are constantly pouring in.

Mrs. Ella Lee, Frankfort, Ind. writes:
Dear Mrs Pinkham -
II want to thank you for what your medi-
cine has done for me.
"Three years ago I had serious female
trouble. was under the Doctors care for
about three months, and the only time was
not in pain was when under the influence of
morphine. The doctor finally said l never
would be better, and would be an invalid the
rest of my life. had given up in despair, but
one evening | came across one of your adver-
tisements and decided towrite You for advice.
l did SO and commenced to take Lydia H.
Pinkhams Vegetable Compound. / began to
improve at once, and to-day l am we'll
woman, and know it Is all due to your advice
and medicine"
Mrs. ]. II. Farmer, of 2so9 Elliott
Avenue, st. Louis, Mo-, writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham;-
advice and medicines have done for me.
They have done me more good than all the
doctors ever had.
For the last eight years have suffered
with female troubles; was very weak; had
nervous prostration, and could not do my
hams Vegetable Compound has made
different woman of me. / am in perfect
health and have gained in weight from 90
TO l22 pounds"
No other medicine in the world has
received such widespread and unquali-
fed endorsement.
Mrs. Pinkham invites all sick women
to write her for advice. She has
guided thousands to health. Address,
Lynn, Mass. She is the daughter-in-
law of Lydia E. Pinkham, her assistant
for many years before her decease, and
for twenty-five years since her advice
has been freely given to sick women.

DEFENCE OF THE Il. Il. Il.
Il. @. Batchelder Says UwaUorable
Criticism Is Not Warranted.

A. G. Batchelder. Of the New York Motor Club
and one of the directors of the American Auto
mobile Association. had the following TO say
yesterday in regard 10 the unfavorabie criticism
that is being directed against the touring COM
mittee of the association:
II is ell right 10 throw rocks at any committee
that errs, but the whole national body which is
doing its best for the rights, privileges and con-
venience Of the Automobiles Of the country,
should not be bombarded. This talk of putting
national control into the hands Of the Auto
mobile Club Of America is preposterOus In the
first place, the Automobile Club OF America
bears such relations TO motorists OF the
United States do the Automobile Club of
France. the Automobile Club of Great Britain
and Ireland and other European national bodies
10 the sport in their country Big it is, IL Is
only New York club, and only comparatively
small part of organized clubdorr at large. The
other clubs and motorists would not stand for IL
There has been some unreasonable criticism
here, owing to the frequent absence of Secre-
tary Gorham in the West. The West demanded
recognition this year The administration has
been IN the hands of the East since the Ameri-
can Automobile Association founded, four
years ago All national business is being we'll
handled by Mr. Gorham. His office is national.
and the West has just much claim his
presence and attention the East He is en-
gagged in organizing state associations in the
West New York has a state association which
is a part Of the American Automobile Associa-
ton and has proved itself well able TO look after
here.
