There are three critical stages in q
woman's life which leave their mark
in her career. The first OF these stages
is womanhood, or the change from q
care free girl to budding womanhood.
The second is motherhood, and tho
third is Change of Life.
Perils surround each of these stages,
and most of the misery that comes
to women through ill health dates
from one CT another Of these i'm
portant crises.
Women should remember that Lydia
e. Plnkham's Vegetable Compound
made from native roots and herbs has
carried thousands of young girls over
the critical period Of puberty, has
prepared mothers for childbirth, and
in later years carried them safely
through the change of life more sue
cessfully than any other remedy in
the world. Thousands of testimonials
from grateful persons, two of which
are here published, substantiate this
fact beyond contradiction.

THE PROGRESSED HEALER.

| Editor Advertiser: I desire to treat
Mr.. Lor Wallach with the courtesy due
to all men. But he appears to me in
his dealings with our public interests,
and with the guardians of the public
health, not to be acting as an honest
man, but clearly acting the part of a
trickster. / feel justified in SO treat
ing him. and in claiming that he should
be so treated.
He is proposing to deal with a for
midable and grievous malady affecting
a large number of our people, for
whose well-being, and for the security
of the public against their contagion,
we have provided at great expense and
burdensome care. There are none of
us, / am sure, who would not be glad
to contribute heavily of our substance
in order to help establish a cure for
this sad disease. Now, here arises an
unknown pretender who says, Il have
remedy for what you call leprosy,
with which I can certainly cure all
cases of that disease. 1 demand to be
permitted to exercise this secret
knowledge and skill in my possession,
until l have proved its wonderful
power, after which I shall hold the
precious secret as my own property as
the means of securing enrichment
Is this the course to be taken by
any honest, right-meaning man? Is it
not rather, on the face of it, the act
of a charlatan, an impostor? If Wal
ZACH were a true and honest man, of
ordinary benevolence and sincerity,
would he not come forward promptly
and say, Here is the remedy which
have discovered for leprosy. Examine
it, and test its value, under the most
careful scrutiny. 1 offer it freely for
the public benefit, and lin mercy to
these many sufferers and their kim
dred. If it proves to be such saving
remedy, then reward me as may seem
fitting?
Nothing would be too good for such
a public benefactor. Our people could
be trusted for that. But Wallach's
method of approach to US is false and
sneaking. When a true discoverer of
health for lepers comes. he will nobiS
present his remedy with glad free will,
rejoicing to be known as a public ben
efactor.
I do not know how many different
stories this pretender has told about
the nature of his remedy. 1t is piti-
able that such a multitude of poor
Hawaiians should have been gulled by
him. And to myself it seems pitiable
that responsible men should feel in
clined to yield to his impudent de-
mands. S. E. BISHOP.

a.. IL TEACHER INDICATED
FOR ADJUSTING CARRIERS
Charges Are Result of "Spite
Work" by Jealous
Women.

'Iaveland, Ohio.-Charged with
adjusting her garters in the pres
ence Of the pupils, Miss Pearl Gray,
principal and teaching staff combined
OF the public school in Chardon, was
triumphant in a trial before the
Board Of Education Of the pretty lit
tie suburb The trial was mark e1
by much display of bitterness on the
part of a score of women. They ey-
pressed their disapproval OF the ver-
dict in direct and forceful terms, and
one indignant matron was applauded
when she exclaimed: ut just goes
to show what a woman who's said
to be pretty can do with a trial board
composed entirely Of men. I'd like
to have been on that board"
Miss Gray took her victory quiet
ly. She said It was only what she
had expected. and intimated that the
charges were the result of spite
work" and she further expressed the
opinion that there "are a lot of teal
Gus women cats in Chardon." Asked
for an explanation, Miss Gray said
she could talk If she wanted to, but
the fact was she didn't. The sig
nifiCance OF her statement, however,
is conceded by one-half of the Dopu-
lation Of Chardon, at least, to be the
prettiest young woman in the town.
There were six charges in all
against the young teacher. First, OF
course, came the allegation that she
frequently raised her skirts few
inches In adjusting her carriers. Then,
in turn, were read the separate
counts. that she often immodestly ar
ranged her skirts in the presence Of
the pupils: that she was In the habit
OF sitting with her feet on her desk
while she read novels; that she used
improper language; that as janitor oi
the school, in addition TO principal
and teaching staff. she burdened the
taxpayers by burning too much coal.
Five children, ranging from seven
to thirteen years of age, were called
as witnesses, but they proved or nc
avail. because they recited their testi-
mony as IL they were reciting ia
miliar lesson to Miss Gray.
Miss Gray was easy and smiling
on the stand. She moved the wit
ness chair until her back was turned
| to the hostile female contingent. and
then she beamed her prettiest upon
| her Judges. These venerable guar
dams OF Chardon's moral status con
tinued to face the fair wltuess In
dignified sternness, but II was assert
ed by more than one OF the aggres

new HAMPSHIRE WIVES
MAKE GOOD DEPUTY SHERlFfS
State Finds Them Successful i'm Pro-
tccting Children and Animals
From Cruelty.

Nashua, y. H.-The unique eYlcii-
ment of the State Of New Hampshire
TO induce better enforcement of the
, laws regarding cruelty to children
and animals by appointing two wom-
en- as deputy sheriffs seems to have
fully demonstrated its success by the
reports made by Mrs. Jennie Z. Pow
ers, of Keene, and Mrs. NJ. Jennie
Kendall, of Nashua, and Will lead, It
is believed. to several other such ap-
pointments.
The work OF both women Is con-
fined almost wholly to the enforce
ment OF laws protecting children and
animals from cruelty. Mrs. Powers
has Cheshire County under her juris-
diction, while Mrs. Kendall Is re-
sponsible for Hillsboro County. The
former devotes her time exclusively
to the work of prosecuting wrong
doers, while Mrs. Kendall's time is
| only partially taken up by the work,
her home demanding the rest of her
time.
Armed with a camera and a re-
volver Of heavy calibre, and thor
oughly versed in the law covering
| her powers and duties, Mrs Powers
| has gone fearlessly about her work,
and in the last year has made six
! teen arrests, killed forty-one horses
and caused numerous prosecutions.
| Using her camera to obtain indis-
| putable evidence, she notifies wrong
| doers of the law and their duty. Fail
ure to kill manned animal or a
| continuance of cruel treatment Is fol-
| lowed at once by arrest and prosecu-
tion, Mrs. Powers personally assum-
| ing the responsibility Of putting the
| animal out Of the way or obtaining
relief.
Mrs. Kendall has confined most OF
her activities to Nashua and the i'm
mediate vicinity, where she has
caused many arrests for cruelty to
children and animals, followed by
| prosecution in the courts, and has
had many animals killed.
81 often find it necessary to make
arrests" said Mrs. Powers, "and have
locked up many offenders, including
a number OF men. | have a team
and a driver. and thus far have not
| met with any resistance when arrest
ing a person. | usually inform a man
| or woman that | have been author
lied to make the arrest, at the same
| time emphasizing the fact that any
resistance will involve a greater pen
atty. AS a rule this has been SUM-
cient."
Both deputies are constantly seek
ing new means of bettering condi-
tions for which they are responsible
They visited Lowell last week to In
spect a new gas system for the pain
less killing of animals. a method they
purpose TO introduce into New Hamp-
shire, and at the same time consulted
a Massachusetts, veterinary with q
view OF having him visit New Hsmp.
! shire and give lectures.

this way you will get reputation for

Taxes on Lcgacics.

In the year 1905-06 there were In
Great Britain ninety-nine estates OF
s1,250,000 to pay duties at the death
of the owners. In the previous year
there were sixty-eight such estates.
When probate and legacy duties are
combined they amount to eighteen
per cent. of the amount left To re-
mote kin. In the year ended March
81 the Governments receipts from
death duties were about $95, 900,
making a new record. In the twelve
years 1885 to l906-07 the Ex-
chequer has received from death du-
