tiny groove in the neck of the bottle.
These are used for medicines that must

the bottle, the medicine drops out
easily and not too rapidly. but when
finished. the stopper need only gbe

Apropos of the Jamestown Tercen-

have been but few OF them not dis

Pocahontas.
Only Il few months ago the Oldest

that Smith, after his rescue. married
Pocahontas! AS matter OF fact. Smith
never married anybody. He died a
bachelor, and, so far as the records
show. left not even collateral descen-
dants.
Naturally, during this tercentenary
celebration. there has been great
Smith revival in America.

LYDIA e. PINKHNM

Nature and a woman's work COM
bined have produced the grandest
remedy for woman's ills that the
world has ever known.
In the good old fashioned days Of
our grandmothers they relied upon
the roots and herbs of the field to
cure disease and mitigate suffering.
The Indians on our Western
Plains to-day can produce roots and
herbs for every ailment, and cure
diseases that battle the most skilled
physicians who have spent years in
the study of drugs.
From the roots and herbs Of the
field Lydia e. Pinkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
of the world a remedy for their pc
culiar ills, more potent and eff1ca-
cious than any combination ofdrugs.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for woman's ills.
Mrs. Bertha Muff, of $50 NC. ST.,
Louisiana, Mo-, writes:

"Complete restoration to health

of other suffering women [ am willing

Metchniko6's Latest.
from the Cleveland Plain Dealer.


The name Of Metchnikon has been at
tached to a number OF interesting SCI
entifc discoveries. It hasn't reached
the status OF household word, but is
sufficiently well known to give 1t q ia
miliar look. Metchnikoff Is connected
with the Pasteur Institute In Paris and
is also a student Of the human organ
ism. Metchnikoff's latest discovery is
macrophagoytosis, the disease Of old
age-a disease that Metchnikoff asserts
is durable. He even goes SO far as to
say that a hundred years hence the dis
ease Of old age will be treated like
bronchitis and diphtheria are treated
and cured. At the present time our
knowledge Of. the ailment-no doubt
the oldest and most fatal the world has
known-is not sufficiently acute to en-
able US to attack 1t directly. It must be
fought through the diet by careful and
abstemious hygiene, by moderate exer-
else. by sufficient sleep. by a vegetarian
diet, by abstinence from the popular
liquids and by close attention to a
number Of minor details that go to the
making Of the sum total Of continuous
health.

Abdul Hamid II Of Turkey must be a
very '"sick man" indeed. There are symp-
toms that his disease has made rapid
progress recently and that he is In grave
danger Of dissolution. But this Is an in
ternal disorder from which he Is now suf
.fering, an afhiction of the vital organs
sUsually when Abdul Hamid becomes Ill
1t Is from some International complica-
tons which merely threaten him tempo
rarily. He is SO accustomed to this form
Of ailment that,he rarely takes 1t seriously
and soon RECEIVERS his health and spirits.
But in this latest extremity Of political
misfortune the sultan finds himself a very
i'll parsonage. His throne is desperately
menaced. His political and possibly his
physical life may be at this moment In
danger. The Young Turks party is not
only active. but rampant. 1t is today In
mastery of the situation and the sultan is
hastily dosing himself with remedies
which he hopes will effect at least a
partial recovery. First he took the con-
stitution pill, though it caused him to
gag terribly. Now. finding that the Young
Turks seem to regard the constitution
with skepticism-they even aver that it
is spurious drug in fragrant violation
of the principles for which DIR. Wiley is
strenuously contending in this country
the sultan has changed doctors and under
advice is undergoing an amnesty treat
ment. He proclaims that all exiled Turks
who have for years feared to re-enter his
boundaries. lest they be summarily bow
strung or otherwise disposed of in ap-
proved Turkish fashion, may confidently
and freely return home. forgiven Of all
their political sins and restored to full
citizenship in the realm. He seems to
think that this will result in an infusion
of new blood which will give him strength
There are those who doubt the efficacy
of even this drastic remedy. The exiled
Turks included In the amnesty proclama-
tion are of the very sort now in evidence
at home as the cause Of the sultan's
difficulties. They are indeed the radicals
of the radical party, and their return to
Turkey, if they are confiding enough to
accept the sultan's invitation. will prob
ably add to the acuteness of Abdul Ham,
ids indisposition. His official demise
would cause few tears anywhere in the
world, especially In Turkey.

Anti-ImperiaItsm Today.

Mr.. Taft's Figure.
From the indianapolis News.

We thing it most unfortunate that Mr.
Tafts friends should seek to create the
impression that he is running on his shape
rather than on his brains and character
For the republican candidate is a man
of ability and of unchallenged integrity
Why. therefore. should there be so much
said Of his physical proportions? A few
days ago we had something to say Of the
remarks of Mr.. Taft's tailor. They We're
interesting, especially as they made i,
clear that the candidates chest measure
felt that anything the tailor said bore In
any way on the campaign. Mr.. Taft's
measurements surely are not an issue
The late convention had nothing to say
about them, the platform being wholly
silent on the subject We doubt whether
the candidate will refer to them in his
speech Of acceptance.

Mr.. Cleveland lauded as a great moral
and conservative force in the matter of
the Monroe doctrine. BY his Venezuelan
message he put life int Q dead issue.
When the American navy was negligible
as compared with that Of Great Britain
he practically challenged that power to
battle, and won his contention on the
Justice Of his cause. Do we need a navy
when our cause is just? Perish the
thought! Remember Venezuela.
The Star does not recall the attitude OF
the Republican toward that episode. but IT
Is fact that several leading newspapers
which are now using Mr.. Cleveland and
his Venezuelan message as a text FOR
censuring Mr.. Roosevelt censured Mr.
Cleveland severely at the time for writ
ing that message. They declared that he
did not know what the Monroe doctrine
meant. and that his truculency was
reckless piece of jingoism altogether dis
creditable In g. President of the United
States What If Lord Salisbury had
stood his ground? What but statesman
ship tolerant and good-natured toward
an English-speaking government obsessed
as to its duty in the premises prevented
him from doing SO? To whom did
america owe It's good fortune in escaping
what would have been foolish and
bloody war? Those newspapers answered
Lord Salisbury. They held Mr.. Cleve-
land up to reprobation.
Now Mr.. Cleveland has been trans
formed by the same authorities into
wise and prudent statesman, who not
only understood the Monroe doctrine
thoroughly, but gave it an Interpretation
which for the first time challenged the
respect Of the world. And at the time: 1t
