All women work; some in their
homes, some in church, and some in
the whirl of society. And in stores,
mills and shops tens of thousands are
on the never-ceasing treadmill, earning
their daily bread.
All are subject to the same physical
laws; all suffer alike from the same
physical disturbance, and the nature of
their duties, in many cases, quickly
drifts them into the horrors of all
kinds OF female complaints, tumors,
liberation, falling and diSplace-
ments or perhaps irrcgularity or
suppression, causing backache. ner-
vousness, irritability and lassitude.
They especially require an invigorat-
ing, sustaining medicine which will
strengthen the female organism and
enable them to bear easily the fatigues
of the day, to sleep well at night, and
TO rise refreshed and cheerful.
How distressing TO see a woman
struggling to earn livelihood or per-
form her household duties when her
back and head are aching, she is so
tired she can hardly drag about or
stand up, and every movement causes
pain, the origin of which is due to
some arrangement of the female or
ganism.
Miss f. Orser, Of Warrenton Street
Boston, tells women how to avoid such
suffering; she writes:

WARNS AGAINST
DRAGGING INDIA
INTO POLITICS

London. July 20.-In introducing the
Indian budget I'm the house OF commons
today, Indian Secretary Morley sounded
a warning note of the necessity OF ex-
cuding India from the field OF party poll
tics. The most engrossing of Great
Britains foreign rela tions, he declared,
were the Asiatic, those involving this
country with China, Japan and Russia,
which was a great Asiatic as well as
European power.
Great Britain in a confusion infinitely
more dire and more disastrous than had
the false step taken In South Africa
"lndia's case in the free trade con-
troversy can be put i'm a nutshell" he
declared. Her prosperity and comfort
the growth OF her trade and commerce,
the solvency OF India hang upon her ex-
ports The United Kingdom takes 25 per
cent. OF her exports, while Europe and
the Far East take IS per cent. Thus when
the people OF Great Britain asked India
for preferential duties. they were asking
her to discriminate against three-fourths
OF her customers"
Mr. Morley said that the present gov
ernment OF India was i'm full aympathy
with the desires OF the people for the in
PRODUCTION OF more western ideas With
this object in view the viceroy was ap-
pointing a commission to inquire how
far the extension of the representative
element I'm the Legislative council could
be expediently carried out.
The Indian secretary also said he con
sidered that the natives ought 10 be given
greater access to the higher posts in the
administration OF India. Mr.. Morley paid
a tribute 10 the former Viceroy. Lord
Curzon of Kedleston and his "consoicu-
Gus, passionate and self-sacrihcing de-
votion TO the interests OF India" and In
behalf Of the house he expressed sym
pathy with Lord Curzon ''in the cruel
blow which has desolated his hearth. 4"

This majority OF the committee yester-
day voted to appoint subcommittee to
wait upon Marsden j Perry and ask him
what the Rhode Island company wishes
to do, whether II would pay for the use
OF the tunel and IL so how much.
The subcommittee includes Chairman
Cooke and Messrs. Grimwood, Kendrick
and Makepeace.
Mr.. Kendrick preferred not TO serve,
and as Mr. Gray desired that Mr.. Balch
be mnde a member OF the committee.
Chairman Cooke substituted Mr. Balch.
The minority of the committee. repre-
senting the overwhelming sentiment OF
the people, offered the following resolu-
ton, through Mr. Parsons:
Voted, That the city council take the
necessary steps 10 build a tunnel from
some point on North Main street or Mar
ket square between College and Water
man streets to Thayer street, the same TO
be leased to the Rhode Island company
for the transportation OF passengers only
I'm electric cars. at rental not less than
sufficient to meet the interest on the
bonds issued for its construction and the
necessary sinking fund"
The resolution, being not I'm conformity
with the plans OF those who are conduct
ing the Rhode Island company's campaign
against tunnel was not adopted.
II Is believed that the plan OF the rail-
road company Is by one pretext and an
other to secure delay and so TO prolong
the whole matter as ultimately TO kill
the present project, as IL has previously
done, others. or, falling I'm this, 10
secure action In such form that the tun-
mel might become the property OF the
railroad company. or In another event,
10 shape action in such way as 10 open

matter In the hands OF the general as

Boss Brayton could be depended upon 10
give the railroad company just what II

another form the outrageous perpetual
franchise grab
In this however. the Rhode Island com
pany would not seem 10 be taking into
account the probability that Boss Bray
ton will not control the next general
assembly, as well as the farther fact that
N the taxpayers do not obtain their rights
from the present city council they will
make the tunnel an issue In the coming
political campaign. Just as was done I'm
the matter OF the transfers and with at
least the same certainty OF success.
