taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta BILE
Compound to see what it would do,
and l am restored to my natural
health. Mrs. ETA DONOVAN, Box
200, WilIimantic, Conn.
The success of Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, made from roots
and herbs, is unparalleled. It may be
used with perfect confidence by women
who suffer from displacements, infiam-
nation, liberation, fibrOid tumors, ir
Irregularities, periodic pains, backache,
bearing-dOwn feeling, fiatulency, indi-
gestion, dizziness, or nervous prostra-
ton.
For thirty years Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound has been the
standard remedy for female ills, and
suffering women owe it to themselves
to at least give this medicine trial.
Proof is abundant that it has cured
thousands of others, and why should it
not cure you?

CANINE DERBY
CLASSIC RACE
OF THE NORTH

NOME. Alaska, Feb. 4.-Nome's an
nual dog-race, the All-Alaska sweep
stakes, which his risen to be known as
a sporting classic the world over, will
be run this year over an 500 nile
course, from Fairbanks to Nome, in
stead of the 4O0-mile route originally
planned. This is the latest scheme of
he sport lovers of Nome, who have
offered a $4,000 prize to the winner
and $4,000 more in smaller prizes.
Last year the sweepstakes was run
from Nome to Candle and return, a
4O0-mile jaunt which occupied five
days and was travelled by the racing
dog teams in a fierce blizzard. The
nIan to race from Fairbanks to Nome
would involve ten days trip over
snow and ice, most of it on the frozen
bosom of the Yukon. The trail Is a
good one, and barring storms, the
Journey might be made by the racers
in nine days cr a little less. The Fair
banks to Nome race, say the promoters
would be a more strictly All-Alaskan
affair.
All of the big dog-owners off the
north will have, teams in the race. and
many of them are conducting regular
training stables here this winter. some
having scores of dogs from which to
pick a team Of ten or twelve for the
big race The date of. the canine derby
is April l. The winning team, in add
ton to the big cash prize. will leave
Nome on the first boat in the summer
and be exhibited at the Alaska Y ukon-
Pacific exposition in Seattle.

The Girl Question.

During the engagement in Baltimore
week before last of 1.-THE Girl Cues
tion," the big musical play by the au-
thors of "The Time, The Place and
The Girl" every feminine member of
the company devoted all her spare mo-
ments and energy to the sale of Red
Cross charity stamps for the proven
ton and spread of tuberculosis. More
than 500 was realized and turned over
to the Maryland branch of the Red
Cross society and the Baltimore News.
The girls were anxious to continue the
work in Wash ngton the following
week. but were ordered to cease and
were threatened with arrest and fines
if they persisted by Charles L. MCGEE,
the secretary of the national Red Cross
association, who apparently was deep
ly piqued because his permission had
not been asked by the girls.
He also threatened the same punish
ment to Chas. A. GAZETTEER and VIM. E.
Burlock the managers of the company
unless they prevented the girls from
exercising their char table instincts.

Wearing a look of care and worry,
the Married Man entered the loop car
at Isaacs and Clinton streets this
morning, wandered aimlessly down the
aisle in search of seat, and finally
wound up in the rear vestibule after
having surrendered his seat to
charming damsel who was on her way
to sell corsets in one of the leading
stores of the city.
What's the matter, old man? in
quired the conductor, holding out his
hand for the fare. You look sleepy:
out late last night? Or don't you
spend the prescribed amount of time
between the soft blankets and the mill
feed?"
Just like this" replied the unfor-
tunate. When a fellow works dill

1.-THE old girl happened to think
last night, after 1 had pulled off my
SHOES and loosened my suspenders,
that she had not returned a dozen or

her. Again I listened to the song of

.A[DR|CH THINKS Of
RETIRING
STRAIN OF LABOR TOO HARD AND
AS HE HAS MADE REPUTATION
AND CAN GAIN NOTHING BY
REMAINING WILL DROP OUT.

Washington, June 5.-Republican
senators, and particularly those close
to Senator Aldrich of Rhode Island,
believe that the great senate leader
will retire from public life at the
close of his present term, Senator
Aldrich frequently alludes to his
purpose not to be candidate for re-
ELECTION, and those who know him
best believe he is sincere in the an
nouncement.
Senator Aldrich is not in good
health. Having reached the age OF
|67, he is not able to stand the strain
which is imposed upon him as lead
fer of his party in the senate, and
more particularly as leader of the tar
iff fight, without showing signs of
the heavy tax upon his mind and
body.
There may not be another tariff
bill for many years to come, but at
! no far distant day there must be a
/
irevision of our monetary laws. and
if he remained in the senate and
chairman of the finance committee,
Senator Aldrich would be compelled
to conduct that fight. He confesses
that he does not feel equal to it.
Moreover. the members of his family
are anxious that he should relinquish
public Office, for they feel that with
out great worry and great RESPONSE
bility he may live to enjoy a ripe old
age, though they are equally certain
that continuance in Office will has.
ten his end.
There is no real reason why Mr.
Aldrich should continue in the senate
beyond his present term. His repu
tation is made; his glory has beer
achieved. Further victories could ado
little to his present record. BY retir
ling now he can retire as victor;
should he continue Indefinitely, with
the insurgent movement gaining
strength, Senator Aldrich might BIZ

The retirement of Senator Aldrict

DOCTORS ADVISED TO ADVERTISE,
Closer Relations Advocated Between
Them and Newspapers.

Closer relations between physicians
and the press were advocated by DR.
j. w. Petit of Ottawa, president OF
the Illinois State Medical socOety, in
his recent address to the seth an
lnual meeting of the society at Quincy
Ill. While deprecating advertising of
sensational or untruthful nature
| he called attention to the public good
that could be accomplished through
the publicity of the right sort.
No agency is more potent for good
or evil than the secular press, said
DR.. Petit. by secular press l mean
more particularly the newspaper,
which each day reaches fully 80 per
cent of the reading public BY far
the larger part of the public, espe-
cially the busy people. get about all
their general information from the
newspaper.
The newspaper is the only source
of information for fully one-half of
the reading public. 1t is the pur-
veyor as we'll as the conveyor of in
formation. and the average editor is
actuated by a praiseworthy motive in
his field of activity as we are in ours.
From being simply record Of events,
the newspaper now covers almost
every field of human endeavor, even
to the extent of maintaining depart
ments for the teaching of technical
knowledge, which, though crude and
imperfect as yet, is an effort in the
right direction
Concerning advertisements DR.. Pet
tit said in part:
"A broad definition of advertising
would include everything in an adj
vertisement, whether paid or other
wise. which is intended to benefit the
individual. If such an advertise
ment contained the truth there could
be no logical objection to it. 1t is
the element of fraud, intentional or
Iotherwise, which makes advertising
by our profession so Objectionable
Any advertisement devoid of exag-
geration, either expressed or i'm
piled, should be regarded as legiti-
mate. Commercial Union.
