China Sees Political Move.

Pekin-Certain Chinese officials
received information at a late hour
Friday that the American fleet of
battleships will not visit Chi Flu. as
has been expected here. This news is
regarded here as meaning that the
American government reconsidered
its acceptance of the invitation ex-
tended by China, and to be a result Of
representations made by American Of
ficials in China, who feel that the fleet
should not come to a Chinese port.
They base their conviction on the
belief that such a visit would give
China a false impression as to the at
titude and intentions of the United
States regarding Manchuria. China
had planned a program for the Ameri-
can visitors, and was preparing to
give them an unprecedented welcome.

. Official notice is sent out from
Washington warning the public
against two counterfeits that have
just appeared. One is a SO United
States note or "greenback" and the
other a $40 gold certificate. AS the
counterfeits are poorly executed and
the workmanship is of an inferior or
der those accustomed to handling cur.
rency should not be easily deceived.
On the whole there is little counter
feiting of this sort nowadays, and a
moderate amount of watchfulness will,
enable almost any person to avoid

best opinion, says the Boston Herald.
seems to be that while the services of
a fireman would be useful In an
emergency, those of a live and capable
janitor or janitors ought to be sufn-
cient for guardianship purposes, espe-
cially in properly constructed and
properly equipped schoolhouses, with
well drilled pupils. No fireman could
be expected to supply the lack OF
these.

LYDIA E. PINKHAM

Nature and a weman's work com.
bined have produced the grardest
remedy for woman'S ills that the
world has ever known.
In the good ole -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 ef1ca.
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 SIS NC. St..
Louisiana, Mo-, writes:
complete restoration to health
means SO much to me that for the sake
of other suffering women I am willing
to make my troubles public.
"For twelve years / had been suffer.
ing with the worst forms of female ills.
During that time I had eleven different
physicians without help. No tongue
can tell what I suffered, and at times /
could hardly walk. About two years
ago I wrote Mrs. Pinkham for advice.
I followed it, and can truly say that
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice re-
stored health and strength. It il
worth mountains of gold to suffering
women"
What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound did for Mrs. Muff,
it will do for other suffering women.
