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 a 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.

CAN MAKE PEACE
SECRETARY TAFT WILL FORCE
cUBANS TO USE REASON.
OUTLOOK NOW FAVORABLE
Ultimatum of President Roosevelt
Brings Both Parties to Their
Senses-Government Will Treat
With Rebels.

Havana.-The government party has
abandoned its basic contention that it
is impossible to treat for peace with
armed rebels, and proposed to nego-
tiate directly with committee of it's
opponents.
1t agreed to leave all points upon
which understanding is not reached to
the final arbitration of Secretaries
Taft and Bacon.
The government first suggested that
it would treat with the Liberals if they
would lay down their arms, but the
American commissioners ruled that
this stipulation was unfair, and that
Moderate representatives accepted this
view. While this phase of the contro-
versy was wholly unexpected, Secre-
tary Taft was greatly pleased there
with, and made the following state
ment for publication:
MY imp ession is that we are much
nearer solution of the trouble to-
night than we were last night"
1t is beyond question that both par
ties were brought to a more tractable
frame of mind by the verbal ultima
tum issued by Taft and Bacon
NSuhSoutN III lit hdiiie VI L lSSiueut
Roosevelt, that unless they consent to
fair arbitration, the United States
must compel the same by a tenn
porary military occupation. Such an
occupation, it was declared, would not
mean American sovereignty. 1t would
continue only until new elections had
been held, tfr new government firmly
established and order restored
Within an hour of the receipt of
this ultimatum the Moderate assembly
agreed, at the end of stormy session,
to the suggestion of treating with the
Liberals.
1t is understood that President
Palma does not intend to withdraw
his resignation. but it is predicted that
Congress will table it indefinitely.

Laundry work at hoihe would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trouble
can be entirely overcome by using De-
fiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
er strength than other makes.
The Colorado statesman., 1906-09-29

BY following the directions, which
are plainly printed cn each package of
Defiance Starch, Mems Collars and
Cuffs can be made just as stiff as de-
sired, with either gloss or domestic
finish. Try it, 16 o. for 10c, sold by

DIR. S. B. Hartman, Columbus, Ohio.
Dear Sir =
1 was a terrible sufferer from
pelvic weakness and had headache
continuously. i was not able to do my
housework for myself and husband.
l wrote you and described my condi-
ton as nearly as possible. You recon-
mended Peruna. L took four bottles of
it and was completely cured. l think
Peruna q wonderful medicine and have
recommended it to my friends with the
very best of results.
Esther M. Miner.
Very few of the great multitude of
women who have been relieved of some
pelvic disease or weakness by Peruna
ever consent to give a testimonial to be
read by the public.
There are, however, a few courageous.
self-sacrificing women who will for the
sake of their suffering sisters allow
their cures to be published.
Mrs. Miner is one of these. In her
gratitude for her restoration to health
she is willing that
