The success of Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, made from roots
and herbs, is unparalleled. 1t may be
used with perfect confidence by women
who suffer from displacements, inflam-
nation, liberation, fibroid tumors, ir.
Irregularities, periodic pains, backache,
bearing-down feeling, fiatuIency, 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 a trial.
Proof is abundant that it has cured
thousands of others, and why should it
not cure you?

Are there not in England among
the male population minds of far
lesser caliber than those of the women
is no doubt of it. Yet we, who have
greater grasp of the political side of
life in his majesty's domain, are de-
MED the privilege. Is our condition
not like that which you Americans
fought back in 1776: taxation without
representation?
From reading the cable news from
America in the daily newspaper here
in London learn that several states
of our former colonies have bestowed
upon their women the right to cast
ballots in rendering decisions as to
state and city officers. II the offspring
of England shall have so far prog
ressed as to recognize that the femi-
nine branch of the human race de-
serves a "say" in the affairs of men,
is it not time for the mother country
to cast from her back the black cloak
of unequal suffrage?
There is a suffrage lesson in Amer
lea and well may England profit by 1t.
The thought that voting is unwom-
anly is as obsolete as the old stage
coach system, to my mind. and some
day the eyes of our country will be
opened to that fact. We women have
simply formed ourselves into a band
of leaders and we hope soon to see our
way clear to the voting booth.
Our struggle commenced in humble
little mass meetings on the street.
The success of these resolved itself
into the desire to do greater things
the newspapers are viewing fight
which is nearing the mountain top of
victory.

When one sees the surface o. a

The idea has been driven home
among the men who are the ruling
powers of Great Britain and they can
not help but see the beauty of our
arguments. This opening of vista
of light in the stubborn minds of the
men who construct English law is to
the suffragettes certain indication
that if the fight is carried on in the
next few years with the same vigorous
measures which have marked the
pursuit of votes by the feminine Brit

is won.
1t is an enlightened age. The wom-

side of country's life is the degraded
one. They connect politics and votes
with drinking, graft and other evils,
which, may say, beset the safety of

does not believe that she should vote:

that Birge's Sharpshooters, authorized
by Gen. Fremont, was assigned to the

vice Nov. %, 1861. Up to April 90,
1862, the regiment was known as

of October Gov. Yates gave r. F. Wins
low authority to raise regiment to be
known as the 56th ILL.,, and these re-
cruits were to be formed into that regi-
ment. but the officers and men revolted
from that idea and decamped one night
to the Illinois River and took boat
for st. Louis to join Col. Birge. Wins
low informed the Governor that they
had left to go to Missouri to join the
Confederates. The boat was brought
to shore at Alton, and the whole of
them placed in the old penitentiary.
