first obstacle in the way OF its realiza-

AT the recent meeting of the Ma

many suggestions were given for the
improvement of the conditions under
which. constantly icreasiaS numbers
of girls and women must earn their
daily bread Some of these susses-
tons Were evidently OF value and
some We're not Of much account.
though all We're, unquestionably. put
forward with the best VIII in the
world to help the toiler in whose In

ideas propouaded which seemed to at
tract a deal of attention is that spok-

the weary toiler an hour or two Of
recreation IN the evening after her

1t would not be necessary to provide

Buys Embassy Residences

Philadelphia Press
For years past everyone familiar
with the subject has been pleading
that the Unied states SHOULD, like
other great powers. own the residences
in which it houses its legations and
embassies. They ought not any long
er, like the residences of some fourth
class power, to wander from house to
house. seeking a place in which TO
live. often finding. as in the case in
the larger capitals. that the rent OF
an adequate house. furnished costs
more than the entire pay. In the
Diplomatic and Consular Appropria-
ton Bill, just passed, the first step
has been taken in this direction by
an appropriation of $4,000. for the
purchase of the buildings and grounds
now occupied by the legation of the
United States in ConstanJinopie.
Turkey
The legation is now an embassy
1t is the only embassy OF Constantine
pie which has not house of its own.
Many reasons in a turbulent country
liable to serious disorder render 1t
necessary that our mission there should
have a house which shall be secure
and commensurate with the dignity
of the United States. TIE United
States bought legation in Picking

Moorish government in Tansuier- Our

Teacher Found Dead

The first two scholars to arrive at the
Center Street Grammar School, in Rich
| mond, last Thursday morning had the awful
experience of finding their teacher, Miss Ina
B. Reed, lying dead by her desl; in the
schoofroom. The coroner's physician, DR..
Jerome, at once pronounced it "sudden death
from Heart Disease"
Mrs. Reed, the mother, said: "Several
times during the last term of school Ina has
mentioned that it put her out of breath to
hurry any, and that her heart had spells of
acting queer, but every time that would
urge her to do something for it she would
only laugh me off and say, oh, it's nothing
but little palpitation-its my stomach,
guess-it will get well of itself anyway But
| know she hurried to get to school a little
earlier than usual this morning and it has
cost us her precious, young life"
This case IS only onei sixty thousand peo-
pie die yearly of Heart Disease! Six in every
ten have it. Many don't know it, they think
it's something else and doctor the stomach,
kidneys, female organs, etc, and get no
better; and good many who do know think it
can't be cured. Now Heart Disease is just as
curabe as any other disease; we have proved
this fully by curing over hundred and thirty
thousand casesl Many of these were the
most chronic, serious, complicated kind, in
which all other remedies and doctors had
failed, and hope seemed gone, but our treat

In very many cases of Heart Disease the
Nerves and Stomach are affected also, and in
such it is useless to treat the heart alone, and
one reason why our treatment cures is be-
cause it sets the stomach right, removes con-
stipation, steadies and revitalizes the nerves
and builds up the whole system, besides
Strengthening, controlling and curing the
heart. We can cure YOUi no matter how
