ilSS MARGARET TiERNEY

A large proportion of the operations
performed in our hospitals are upon
women and girls for some organic
trouble.
Why should this be the case
Because they have neglected them
selves, as every one of these patients
in the hospital beds had plenty of
warning in those dragging sensations,
pains at left or right of abdomen,
backaches, nervous exhaustion, in
fammation, liberation, displ ace
ments, and other organic weaknesses.
All Of these symptoms are indica-
tons of an unhealthy condition of the
female system and If not needed the
penalty has to be paid by dangerous
operation. When these symptoms
manifest themselves, do not drag
along until you are obliged to go to
the hospital and submit to an opera
tion-but remember that Lydia E
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made
from native roots and herbs, hassaved
hundreds of women from surgical
operations.
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compounds has cured more eases of
feminine ills than any other one
remedy. Such letters as thefollowing

ISLAND BEAUTY
IS MENTIONED
Grand Ruler Melvin Tells of
Hawaii in Grand Lodge
Address.

The address made by Grand Exalted
Ruler Henry A. Melvin, at the annual
session of the Grand Lodge of Elks
held last July in Philadelphia, is con-
sidered one Of the finest efforts of its
kind that shas ever been delivered in
the United States. He shows famil-
iarity with Hawaii which is pleasing
TO che residents of this city and which
shows his friendliness for this Terri
tory. The following extracts from his
address should be of general interest:
"Ladies and Gentlemen and Brother
Elks: Speaking personally I can only
say that I thank you from the bottom
of my heart for this splendid welcome,
this bounteous Philadelphia hospitality;
and, in my representative capacity, I
can assure you that this great typical
American Order entertains toward our
generous hosts gratitude which ex-
tends from the state sof Washington to
the Everglades of Florida; from
Maine to San Diego-a gratitude that is
Alaskan, Porto kican, Hawaiian, and
comes even from those purple isles of
the sea
That yonder lift
Their fronded palms in air,
the far-of Philippines. In short we
offer Elks' appreciation for Elk-like
hospitality, and that means much, for
the Elks are the Best People on Earth
Some misguided person might venture
to declare that statement difficult of
proof, but it needs no proof-we admit
it.
'tBut, sir, whatever may be our
pride in our respective local habita-
tions, whether we boast of New York IS
glories; tell of the mock
ing bird IS tender songs that float on
the jasmine-scented breezes of the
south; hymn the boundless sweep and
free air of the western plains, or
thrill with the majesty of Coloradan
vistas; whether we revel in recounting
the blissful hours beneath the palms of
Honolulu, and on the moonlit waves at
Waikiki, or tune our voices TO the
praise of California IS fruits and flowers,
her vivifying sunshine and her gentle
rain that falls alike upon the just and
upon the tourist; wherever may be that
place called 'home' by anyone of us,
we all, with common sentiment, have
turned our eyes toward the Mecca of
bur fraternal hopes, fittest meeting
place for the sons of this great order
that spreads our country's flag upon its
affairs; and many hearts have throbbed
with pride to know that our legions
should tread the streets of this city
where the Charter of our Independence |
was traced with master hand, and our
ensign first futtered to the
oreeze-the grand old City of Brother
y Love. -

the ground in consideration of the
proposition which has been made toI
them for holding the third annual pic
mic of the employees and families in
this city on the 18th of August. The

in going over the ground and talking
with the business men, and expressed
themselves as favorably impressed
with the Holiness Park, as location.
They will return to Ottumwa this ey-
ening and make such report to the
proprietors of the factory. AS the
