Damaging Confessions.

OdtidSlnS CONCESSIONS.
There were other confessions which.
while damaging to her W character,
accentuated all the more the terrible
personal sacrifice she is making in the
effort to save her husband from death
in the electric chair.
After bringing out that her relations
with White continued for some time.
Mr.. Jerome went deeper. Mrs. Thaw
admitted that in 1908, after the return
from Europe. she spent the night at
Thaw's apartments in New York. and
that for three weeks he and she occu-
pied connecting apartments at the
Grand hotel in this city.
Defendant in Bad Light.
Mrs. Thaw made what was consider
ed her most damaging statement 10
the defendant when she said he had
showed her copies of cablesrams that
were being sent to Stanford White
from Europe, asking him to use his in
f1uence with a certain mar in London
to prevent Mrs. Nesbit from raising a
fuss and interfering with Evelyn con-
tinuing in the company of Thaw.
Mrs. Thaw also was forced 10 admit
that when she and her mother went
abroad with Thaw in 1903 they were
still drawing upon the bounty of Stan.
ford White.
Gay Life in Paris.
A letter written by Mrs. Thaw m
1904 and telling of her gay life in Paris
with Harry Thaw and a "bunch from
the Tenderloin" was read to the jury
by Mr.. Jerome. This brought out
more testimony as to the Dead Rat"
q Partisan cafe. There seemed to be
nothing in the witness past life about
which the prosecutor was not inform
ed. He seemed to have been able to
trace every step, largely due, doubt
less, to the typewriter statement of
the mother, which Mr.. jerome nearly
always holds in his hand while hurting
questions at the daughter.
Court adjourned until Monday.

CAUGHT THE FAIR cuLPRIT.
How the Naval Officer Recovered His
Lost Buttons.

IL happened on one of the United
States cruisers now at Hampton roads,
says the Washington Herald A lieu
tenant. having met two very charming
ladies while ashore, invited them on
board for luncheon. They came and
were shown over the ship. They lin
gered long in the lieutenant's room,
which was daintily furnished aud
they admired his photographs Of home.
When he was summoned on deck he
left them there. Returning, he took
them TO luncheon and, havins to go on
duty in the afternoon, he excused him
self so as to get into uniform. Alas!
he found that every button on his best
coat had been cut off and then he re-
membered that one of his fair guests
has been rather importunate on the
souvenir question. He got her alone
after luncheon and accused her of the
theft and after some prevarication she
confessed that the buttons were in her
corsage. With some firmness the lieu
tenant led the culprit to his cabin,
pointed silently TO the denuded coat
on the bunk, produced needle and
thread and, going out, locked the door
on the outside. In half an hour he
returned, unlocked the door, found
that his coat was once more in excel
lent order and then, with great gal
lantry, bowed the lady over the side.
She has not been invited to luncheon
on the Samp shin since

Nervous Women Suffer No More
Silently and Alone You Bear
With Patience Burdens That
Would Crush Strong Men.

In this country today there are
thousands of women whose days are
filled with constant suffering. There
is the dull headache, the dragging
backache, the hot flushes, that awful
tired feeling, too sick and faint TO
work, too well to go TO bed. Men have
little knowledge Of the suffering their
women go through day after day.
Many times such illness it attributed
to biliousness or the after effect of a
cold when it is really a arrangement
Of the genital organs. 1t seems a
shame that women should suffer so
when there is a safe, harmless remedy
that will restore to them the splendid
health that makes perfect woman
hood.
Zod-Phora dispels nervous disorders
of women because it regulates the
menses and relieves them of pain.
1t is wonderfully effective in the cure
of prolapsus because it strengthens
the muscles supporting the parts, and
renews the nerve force. 1t removes
and prevents inflammation, congestion
and unnatural discharge from the
genital organs-these diseases that
sap the very life, destroy the tissues
and finally shatter the nervous sys-
tenn.
1t is marvellous in it's tonic effects
and women who have been tried, list
less, with headaches and backaches
marring their very pleasure have i'm a
single week been changed from suf-
fering, morOse, irritable beings TO
bright happy, cheerful women who
find pleasure i'm their household duties
because they have a new and natural
strength to perform them without ia
tigue, simply by use of the wonderful
Zoa-Phora.
Zoa-Phora has helped hundreds and
thousands of women to health, strength
and the joy of living. The only way
i'm which you may receive the same
benefit is to do as they did. Go 10
your druggist and procure dollar
bottle Zoa-Phora. Begin using at
once according TO plain directions
found i'm the package. If any further
information or private advice is desr-
ed. the Zoa- Phora Company, Kalama-
zoo. Mich, will gladly answer all
questions If you write them. Just ask
the druggist for Zoa- Phora-no other
explanation need be prepared, COM
pounded i'm just the right proportions,
and put up i'm sealed. sterilized, one
dollar bottles. Will you act now while
. the opportunity is before you?
