Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
 Lydia B. Pinkhams Vegetable Compound has saved many women from surgical operations.
 Lydia K. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is made from roots and herbs, without drugs, and is whole some and harmless.

DENIAL BY ELKINs.

Senator Gives Another Statement
 About Daughters Engagement. g
 Pittsburg. Pa. Oct, 12--In an authoritative statement to the As- sociated Press today United States Senator stephen B. Elkins of West Virginia. branded as untrue an alleged interview accredited to his wife to the effect that there was no engagement between Miss Katherine Elkins and the Duke of the Abruzzi
 In an emphatic manner Senator El- kins said that neither his wife nor himself could give such interview for the simple reason that 1t was impos- sible to deny something that did not exist.
 Senator Elkins talked to the Asso- ciated Press over the long distance telephone from Eikins. W. Va, and was much exercised over the numerous wild reports published from time, to time concerning the alleged engage ment of his daughter to the Italian mo- bleman.
 There is no foundation for the many reports.' he said. Neither in Europe nor America has any announcement of an engagement been made. There is no engagement"

Government Not Concerned in waters-
 Fierce of Suit.


 Washington. Oct. l2.--A motion to dismiss the appeal of the Waters Pierce oil Company of St. Louis from the decisions of the Texas state courts busting that company from doing bus ihess in Texas. was filed in the su- -preme court today by Attorney General Davidson of Texas.
 The motion is based on the ground that there is no substantial federal question involved in the case, as the laws which the oil company is charged with violating are purely state sta- tutes in which the United States courts are not concerned. Tn case the motion to dismiss is not granted. the attor- ney general moves to affirm the Texas verdict. pleading that If there should prove to be the color of federal question, 1t Is wholly frivolous and without merit" The state laws which the oil company is accused of violat- ing are the antitrust laws and the of feIfse charged is a combination with the Standard oil Company.
