The riders were met at the pier ty Pat rick F. Powers. the manager. who said that the Australian contestants are now on their way from San Fran cisco. The foreign riders were taken to training camp at Newark. The teams that came on La Lor- raine are the Georget brothers. Vanoni. the Italian rider. and Petit Brenton, the French bicyclist: Van- dersuyft. of Belgium and Stoll, of Holland; Walter Rutt, of Germany. and Floyd Mcfarland, of Californ- ia: Bobby Walthour and Hugh Mac Lean, of Boston. Walthout was ac- companied by his wife and three chill dren and Gussie Lawson. his pace maker.
 George Wiley. former messenger boy. will team with Frank Calvin. a former Hartford boy who was one of the stars at the velod-ome Gn AL bany avenue. Wiley shatters the time-worn tradition that Western Union messenger boy is born with a deep-roo.ed an'ipathy for anything resembling speed.

Too bad.
And yet, says the Washington Star,
Mr.. Bryan richly deserves to be classed
with the bloody oppressors of those
people. He looked and talked daggers
In the campaign of 1900 on the subject

ipelago. His speeches were turned
into smooth and flowing Spanish, and
circulated in the islands to show how
friendly he was toward the insurgent
sentiment, and how radically different
his course would be in Office to that
of the Mckinley administration. The
result was to make him a hot favorite
with A%guinaldo and his friends in that
race. And now, bless your soul, he
talks like Judge Taft-the man sent
by Mr.. Mckinley to the islands to set
and keep things in the American or.
der!
OF course. as we all know in this
country, Mr.. Bryan's campaign talk
was for campaign purposes. 1t was
not what might be called a deliberate
cheat, but 1t was keyed to create and
Intensity prejudice, and to catch votes.

Well, as a matter of fact, how many
Americans are there to-day who, re

yet be willing to see the administra-

leaving the Fflipinos to wrestle with
the problem of an Independent gov

A CURE FOR DEBILITY
Or. Williams Pink Pills A Reliable
Kennedy for tho Weak, AiIIna
and BloodIess.

When the body is weak and the blood
thin It is sometimes difficult to find the
cause unless q wasting illness has pre-
ceded, or the sufferer happens to be a
girl OH the verge Of womanhood..
Obscure influences, something un-
healthful In ones surroundings or work.
may lead to a slow impoverishment Of
the blood and an enfeeblement Of the
whole body. When a serious stage has
been reached there seems TO be nothing
that will account for it.
Mr.. O. K. Legg, Of Upton, W. Va,
has found a successful method Of treat
ing weakness and bloodlessness. He
says:
81 used DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
weakness caused by a lingering malarial
fever that began in the spring of 1895.
The worst effects Of this were indiges-
ton and bad state Of my blood. Twas

generally would say that 1 didn't have
blood enough, or that I didn't have the
right kind of blood mine was too thin.
Ny kidneys and liver were out of order.
I was badly annoyed by our risings
from my stomach. There was q good
deal of pain, too, in my back and under
my right shoulder blade"
"How long did these troubles last?"
"For wei two years. For four
months Of that time 1 was under the
care of q physician, but his medicine did
me no good. Meanwhile I learned Of
che cures that had been wrought by DR..
Williams Pink Pills"

they are helping others to whom I have

merit and I know of nothing that would

TERRIBLE SCALP HUMOR.
Loss Of Hair-Another Speedy Cure
by Cuticura Remedies.

Gail my life I had been troubled more
or less with humor in my scalp, but
about a year ago it became worse, and
my scalp was covered with little sores,
which itched so it nearly made me crazy
my hair also began to get dry and fall
out. i tried all kinds of hair restorers
with no effect, and L was nearly discour-
aged; but one day l was reading in a pa
per what the Cuticura Remedies had done
for scalp diseases, and decided to make a
trial. l got a cake of Cuticura Soap, a
box of Cuticura Ointment and Cuticura
Resolvent Pills. l used them according
to directions, and soon noticed a differ
ence; the tiny sores on my scalp began
to heal, the itching stopped, and my hair
began to grow thick. / have used only the
one cake of Soap. one box of Ointment,
and enc vial of Pills, and now ! have no
humor on my scalp and my hair is soft
and silky. Miss Maybe G. Atkins, Box

Now, my "damagers" had sent me a
little slip, giving me special rates Of sl.50

1t was a pretty good thing.
So in the morning l presented my little
slip, saying:
"You gave us special rates, I believe,

host. "Onc dollar and a half is special"

commercial missionary, who seemed very
much pleased about something, and pres
emily in a very high state of chuckle, he
said:

morning"
Whats the joke" I asked, for /

"That landlord gave you a special rate
of 81 so per, didn't he?"
"He did, indeed"

The Pinkhams had no money, and

tons of roots and herbs are used annu-
ally in it's manufacture.
Lydia E. Pinkham herself did not
live to see the great success of this
work. She passed to her reward years
ago, but not till she had provided
means for continuing her work as
effectively as she could have done it
herself.
During her long and eventful expe-
rience h was ever m~ethodical in her
work and she vas always careful topre-

ing symptoms, treatment and results
were recorded for future reference, and
to-day these records, together with
hundreds of thousands made since, are
available to sick women the world
over, and represent a vast collabora-
ton OF information regarding the
treatment OF woman's Ills, which for
authenticity and accuracy can hardly
be equaled In any library in the
world.
With Lydia f. Pinkham worked her
daughter in law, the present Mrs.

in all her haId-won knowledge, and
for years she assisted her in her vast

To her hands naturally fell the
direction of the work when its origina-

PLOT OF JUDGE PARKER.
Calls Upon the South to Sidetrack
Both Bryan ard
Hearst. q

The motive for Judge Parker's sug-
gestion of a southern Democratic can
didate for the presidency is his eager
ness to get rid in some way of William
]. Bryan and William r. Hearst, whose
socialistic and anarchistic leanings and
associations are threatening the party
at the north with complete disruption,
but we do not see how a southern candi-
date could relieve the situation. says the
Chicago Chronicle.
If he should be of the same stripe as
Bryan and Hearst he would have the
same bad effect on the party that those
two candidates would have, and If he
should be a decent old-fashioned Demo-
crat he could eve get the support of
the northern Democrats, most of whom
long since swung loose from all the
traditions of the party.
The report Of Judge Paraer's speech
does not mention that it created any en-
thusiasm, and as it possessed no element
Of feasibility 1t had no effect except to
reveal the desperate situation his party
is in at the north in consequence of the
hold that Bryan and Hearst have
upon 1t.
The reason why there was NO objec-
ton to confessing this situation is given
by the Judge himself. who said It was SO
bad that neither a southern candidate
nor anything else could make 1t any
worse.

In 1s43 she married Isaac Pinkham,
a builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked by
four children, three sons and O

In those good old fashioned days 1t
was common for mothers to make
their own home medicines from root
and herbs, natures own remedies
calling in a physician only In specially
urgent cases. BY tradition and ex-
perience many of them gained a WON
derful knowledge of the curative prop

Mrs. Pinkham took C great interest
in the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power over disease.
She maintained that just as nature so
bountifully provides in. the harvest

all kinds; so, if we but take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
of the field there are remedies ex-

hams friends and neighbors learned
that her compound relieved and cured
and it became quite popular among
them.
All this so far was done freely, with
out money and without price, as q
labor of love.
But in 1873 the financial crisis struck
Lynn. Its length and severity were toe
much for the large real estate interests
of the Pinkham family, as this class
of business suffered most from
fearful depression, so when the Centen,

of income had to be found.
At this point Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound was made known
to the world.
