QhlL
Question

"Do you know of any woman who ever received any
benefit from taking Lydia E. Pinkhams Vegetable Com
pound?"
If any woman who is suffering with any ailment peculiar
to her will ask her neghbors this question: she will be
surprised at the result. There is hardly community in
this country where cannot be found who have been
restored to health by this famous old remedy, made
exclusively from a simple formula of roots and herbs
During the past 80 years have published thousands
of letters from these grateful who have been cured
by Lydia E. Pinkhams Vegetable Compound and never
in all that time have published testimonial without
the writer's special permission. Never have we knowingly
published testimonial that not truthful and genuine.
Here is just received few days ago. If anyone doubts
that this and honest statement of womans expert

WHY, OH WHY?

A correspondent in another
column, a man of prominence by
the way, wants to know why II
the high school teachers are good
that we manage to get rid OF
them. The question is a peril
nent or an impertinent one, ac-
cording to the point Of view.
From the taxpayers line of Vi
sion, it is pertinent. He wants
to get the best and quickest re-
turns for his money as invested
in school teachers. The taXpay'
er is apt to think frequent
changes in the faculty poor bust
ness policy, and will want tC
know why" it is done.
From the viewpoint Of the
powers,that.be such queries arc
wholly impertinent. Intrenche(
in the new law on school matters
such questions may not only be
left unanswered, but in tie taunt

in return the unanswerable queS
ton; "What are you going to d'
about it,"

ALL RANKS REFERRED.

In another column is an article
from the ClariOn-Lcdger on the
subject of the custom OF giving
officials of the Confederate Vet
eran organizations high-sOunding
titles often not commensurate
with their war record. The con-
tention in the main is a true'OnC.
While there can be no rightful
objection to a Confederate 'prl-
vate attaining the highest rank
in the after organizations of the
veterans, it would be well for the
| latter to devise some nOmencla-
turc to express these gradatiOns
in rank without employing
strictly military terms. In other
words, the i. G. Y. might find
for their officers titles that would
in no way interfere, or mislead,
concerning the former rank they
bore in the Confederate Army,
Titles there must be to maintain
the dignity Of their organizations,
but let them be Of different
phraseology from what was
borne under the Stars and
Bars"
If only these dear Confederate
veterans knew how we cherish
their records in war, and that, i
matters not to us, loyal and fond
, what their degree in rank, a pri
vate is just as reyered, just as
: dear, as a major or general, an(
, a major or a general as high as
king, they would permit no late,
titles to obscure the ones the!

and '65.

CREDIT TO LOUISIANA Law
YERS.

Those who skipped the reports
of the convention of the Louisi-
ana Bar at Alexandria, last week,
as these reports appeared in the
daily press, under the impress
ion that they were dry reading,
missed a treat. Not only was
the subject matter highly inter
esting and instructive, but 1t
showed the general high tone |
and correct standing of the men
in this profession. While a mark
ed conservatism prevailed in
their attitude to any change IN
the Civil Code, they nevertheless
showed a strong appreciation Of
what the progress of the times
demands, and a broad outlook on
affairs generally.
In nothing was this shown
more than their attitude to the
woman question. The family
meeting, while regarded as an
instrument Of injustice some
times, they decided should stand,
and the community law in gen
eraI. The speaker, who treated
this subject, and his opinion
seemed rather generally con-
CURED in, was in favor of a mar
ried woman administering her
separate property. The wife $
signature was regarded as a
rightful requirement on the con
veyanCe of property. The credit
= was given to the Era Club fOl
having women made legal wit
: nesses to wills. All in all, the
,, tone on this subject, though no
advanced" was reasonable ant
an evident desire to be just. One
of the speakers made the very
true remark that the law as re
CARDS woman was not due Il
l mans wish to be unjust to her
but her former education, being
almost wholly domestic, left he
unfit to transact outside bust
ness. With Il change in cOndi
tons, and wOman's branching
out into many kinds of business
there was need for a correspond
ing change in law.
The one break in the cOnven
: ton was President Patterson

A THOUGHT ON JUNE THIRD.

No Confederate celebration
would be complete today that ana
not take formal notice of the two
distinct events of the new year,
from a Confederate standpoint:
these are the engraving of Jetfer-
son Davis's likeness on the silver
service presented to the battle
ship Mississippi, and the res,
toratiOn of his name to the
commemorative tablet upon the
Cabin John bridge near Wash
ington. D. C. The bridge was
COMPLETED while Mr.. Davis was
Secretary of War under Frank,
lin Pearce in 1858, and his name
was placed on the tablet, In
1862, it was ordered chiseled out,
and the vacant space on the tab,
let remained until in February
1909, President Roosevelt order
cd the restoration of the name,
On May "A, Capt. Horne of Gulf
port, Miss. replaced the name
taking the work as a labor OF love
He vows that the tools he used
will never be employed in any
other labor.
Thus two instances are glver
within a short time Of each Other
that a broader view is taken o.
events, and that tardy justice is
being done Jefferson Davis.
Time heals all wounds and all in
justice rights
But oh, the years are long and
weary while we wait,

envy blightS
