LYDIA E. PTNKHAM

No other medicine for Woman's
ills in the world has received such
widespread and unqualified en-
dOrsement as has Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound, made
from native roots and herbs.
No other medicine has such a
record of success for woman's dis
eases, or such hosts of grateful
friends as has Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.
For more than 30 years it has been
the standard remedy for feminine
ills, Inflammation, liberation, and
consequent Spinal Weakness.
Ithas relieved more cases of Back
ache and Local Weaknesses than
any other one remedy. 1t dissolves
and expels tumors In an early stage
Of development.
Irregularities and periodic pains,
Weakness of the Stomach, Indiges-
ton, Bloating, Nervous Prostitution,
Headache, General Debility, quickly
yield to it; also deranged organs,
causing pam, uIdSSmS S6uSdIIOIlS
and backache Under all circum-
stances it acts in harmony with the
female system.
1t removes that wearing feeling,
extreme lasSitude, don't care "and
" want to- be left alone" feeling,
excitability, irritability, nervousness,
dizziness, faintness, sleeplesSness,
flatulency, melancholy orthe "blues."
These are indications of Feminine
disorders, which this medicine over
comes as well as slight arrangement
of the Kidneys of either sex.
Women who are sick and want to
get well should refuse to accept any
substitute for Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.

Indiana and Purdue Medical
Colleges Joined Under
One Head.
INDIANA HAS CONTROL.

Meeting Sunday at the Grand Hotel,
President w. l.. Bryan of Indiana Uni
versity, and President w. L. Stone of
Purdue University brought about a
consolidation of the Indiana Medical
College and the State College of Ply
sicians, ending a war of rivalry of
about two years duration. The new
school will be under the direction of
Indiana University. The Indiana Med
icaI College is known as the Purdue
School of Medicine and the State Col
lege Is affiliated with Indiana Univer-
sity.
In the merger both schools made
concessions. A complete course in
medicine-embracing four years-will
be maintained in Indianapolis. Also
there will be a two years course at
Bloomington. The first two years may
be taken either in Bloomington or In
dianapolis. 1t was upon this point that
the break came between Indiana Uni
versity and the Indiana Medical Col
lege four years ago when an attempt
was made to bring the medical school
under the wing of Indiana University.

That Is When You Can't Re-

Chancellor Day.
NOT FASCINATED BY IDEA.

New York, April 6.-Rev. DIR. James
r. Day, Chancellor of Syracuse Univer-
sity, spoke to a crowded house Sunday
afternoon at the Harlem branch of the
Young Mems Christian association. He
secuted the idea that the country was
in state bordering on commercial and
industrial stagnatiOn. He contended
that, alter all, this is a good world, and
altogether well worth living in.

REMEMBER MAINE
Monument May Be Erected in
Honor of Brave Men Who
Lost Lives on Ship.
OLD PLANS ARE REVIVED.

New York, April 6.-After being in
Obscurity for nearly 10 years the pro-
posal that a monument shall be erect
ed TO the victims of the Maine and the
Spanish War has been revived. Those
having charge of the fund have applied
to the Park Commission for permits
sion to erect the monument, and plans
for the monument have been submit
ted to the Municipal Art Commission
which will act upon the matter soon.
While the plans have not been made
public, it is understood that they con-
template the erection of an arch and a
shaft, the arch to be at one of the en-
frances to Central Park, and the col
umn just within the park. The esti-
mated cost is about $104, 900. The ar
chitect is V. Van Buren, MagOnagle It
is said to be the plan of the promoters
to invite President Roosevelt to lay
the corner stone.

TASTES IN CIGARS.
Some Men Like Their Tobacco Mofst
md Some Like 1t Dry

md Some Like 1t Dry.
The public taste for cigars varies In
different localities and countries, and
in all the large factories cigars are
conditioned to suit the demands Of the
country to which they are TO be sent
In Europe, more especially in the Brit
ish isles. the consumer Of cigars re-
Quires that they should be dry-in fact,
almost brittle. 1t is common Incl
dent in that country to see a smoker
take his cigar and place it to his ear
to see If it will give forth a cracking
sound, and If it does not crackle the
cigar Is considered too moist Pipe
smoking tobaccos, however, are re-
CURED very moist.
In the United States the proper con-
ditiOn for cigars and pipe smoking to-
baccos is just the reverse. The Ameri-
can smoker requires his cigars in such
condition that the wrapper, bindin z
and filler will yield to the pressure Of
the fingers without cracking or break
ing the wrapper, while, on the other
hand, the smoking tobaccos, especially
the graduated tobaccos, must be mod
erately dry.
Various methods are employed for
keeping cigars and tobaccos in the
proper condition, but up to the present
time no method has been devised that
will act automa tically. Both manufac-
tured tobacco and cigars are suscepti-
BILE to climatic conditions, and 1t re-
quires the constant attention Of the
manufacturer and dealer to regulate
the moisture in his stock cupboard or
showcase. In retail stores great trou-
Bile is experienced in keeping the air
in the showcases in the proper condi-
ton, especially when these are con-
stantly being opened. In warm wet
weather more moisture is admitted
than is needed, while during the cold
winter months the cigars are apt TO be
come too dry. especially in the upper
part of the showcases.-Science.

THE GUANACO.
A Patagonian Animal That Seeks It's
own Graveyard.

1t seems from the accounts given by
Darwin and by w. II. Hudson that all
the guanacos of the southern part of
Patagonia must resort when the hour
of death approaches to a certain spot
in a certain river bed which has be-
come a perfect mausoleum of their
bones.
Mr. Hudson notes that it is only the
guanaco of the southern extremity of
the South American continent that has
this habit, habit restricted to de-
scendants of forefathers who lived in
an extremely rigorous climate. Mr..
Hudson cOnjectures that among these
forefathers the instinct grew up when
the stress of hunger and cold was very
dire of resorting to this sheltered place
in the river bed, where they might find
warmth in their own closely collected
numbers and possibly food. BY a
continual survival of those which be-
took themselves to this place of refuge
the race instinct would be formed of
resorting thither when they felt the
tides of life running low. This feeling,
Mr.. Hudson argues. their descendants
are likely to experience now at the ap-
proach of the hour OF death.
But now it is no longer just a pass
ing spell of extreme cold that leads
them thither. The death call has come,
and they must lay their bones in the
common mortuary. 1t is not in order
to die" that the guanaco seeks this
place: 1t would be nearer the truth if
we were to say it was ''in order t.
live
But the most true account of all is
that it is in mere obedience to the in
herited instinct that the guanaco re-
sorts to this refuge.
Yet another instance of this mysteri-
Gus guidance Is afforded by the habit
of the raulesnakes in the colder coun-
tries to assemble together for hiberna-
ton in caves. These snakes on emery
ing from the caves cover long distances
in their wanderings, their young are
generally born far away. and yet these
young succeed in finding their way to
the caves with the greatest certainty

Catholic Churches in Rich
mond Had Appropriate
Exercises Yesterday.
A PERIOD OF MEDITATION.
MEMBERS OF THE CHURCH
WILL IN SPECIAL MANNER FOL-
LOW lDEA-PRETTY CUSTOM.

Passion Sunday was observed ihlthe
Catholic churches of this city in the
customary manner yesterday. There
were large gatherings at both st.
Mary's and ST. Andrews churches
Passion Sunday represents the begin
ming of the Passion tide. the name Civ
en- in the liturgy of the church to the
last two weeks of Lent.
This Sunday is so called because
the church from now until Easter Sun
day occupies itself in a special man
ner in meditation and in veueration of
a Catholic church in any part of the
world, looking al the altar, will notice
that the CrucifiX, with its figures of
the dead Christ, is yelled w;tn violet
cloth
What is the meaning of this? 1t is
learned from st. John that many of
those who Vare witnesses of Christ's
miracles went under the influence of
jealousy, to the PhariSeeS to inform
them OF what had happened. The
death of the Savior was decided upon
From that moment, Christ had to flee
and hide himself. To express this I'M
heard of humiliation the church wells
the cross, and the fifth Sunday of lent
is called Passion Sunday, because. in
fact, the way of SORROWS for Jesus
Christ began in the council hall, where
the black plots against His life were
woven. So the church represents fig
uratively what the Gospel, which is
read on this Sunday. relates-"But He
hid himself and went out of the tenn
pie"
The church calls to our minds this
event. For that reason it withdraws
ing il. The color of this veil is violet,
the color of pennance. Christ put on
the garment of pennance in order to
atone for his followers sins and to
reconcile them with God.
There is nothing so sublime in the
history of religious thought and hui
man seeking after truth as what is Of
fered every year at this holy time by
the church. The crucifixes are COW
cred, in remembrance, that from this
time until His entrance into Jerusalem
Jesus walked no more openly among
the people. This yelling of the pic
ture of the crucified also reminds one
over the bitter passion of Jesus.
