STORMY SESSION

Washington, Sept. 2.-The Alexan.
drla city council, with five new mem
bers in the common council and one
in the board of aldermen, met at noon
yesterday to reorganize. Some think
it did and some think it did not, and
the counts may be asked to decide
who's who and why" In the board
Of aldermen. there is a deadlock ove1
the election of a president, and botl
sides seem SO determined that it may
be weeks before it is broken.
In the common council..it was neces-
sary to use the steam roller to pre-.
ven" insurgents A. D. Brockett and
j. Y. Williams, new members, from
presenting their reasons why Hubert
Snowden should not only be re.
elected president of that board, but
should not be member of it, and
why others should not be unseated.
Points of order punctuated the atmos-
phere repeatedly and one of the in.
surgents admitted after adjournment
that he had hardly had chance to
catch his breath.

Vegetable Compound has done for me
during this trying period. Complete
restoration to health means so much
to me that for the sake Of other suffer
ing women I am willing to make my
trouble public so you may publish
this letter" Mrs. CHAs. BARCLAY,
RID, Graniteville, vt.
No other medicine for woman's ills
has received such widespread and un-
qualified endorsement. No other med
icine we know of has such a record
of cures of female ills as has Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
For more than 80 years it has been
curing female complaints such as
Inflammation, liberation, local weak
nesses, fibroid tumors, irregularities,
periodic pains, backache, indigestion
and nervous prostration, and it is
unequalled for carrying women safely
through the period of change of life.
It costs but little to try Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and,
as Mrs. Barclay says, it is ''worth noun
tains of gold " to suffering women.

School Will Be Held in Main Street
Building Temporarily

A statement of the plans for the
coming session of the City public
schools seems due the patrons of the
schools. At meeting Of the School
Board held September first, the fol.
lowing plan was adopted for the pres
emit: ALI the pupils Of the white
schools will be taught in the Main
Street building. The carpenter shop
and physical and chemi cal Laborator
les will be vacated to accommodate
more Of the publls; and every effort
will be made to make the children
comfortable. The first and second
grades will run on regular schedule as
will also those above and including
the fifth grade The third and fourth
grades will have half day sessions !;
some coming at 8:45 and leaving at
IL 10, others coming at IL 80 and leav-
ing at 4.
The only congestion that will &C.
cur will be at the morning recess and
that will be managed as judiciously
and as carefully as possible. It may
be possible to give the primary child
rem recess at a different time from
the other. children. In this way the con-
gest ion will be avoided. If all the
children have recess at the same time,
extra monitors will be ON duty and
every precaution will be used to in
sure recreation without trouble and
danger. The primary children will,'oc-
cupy the lower iioor. in the main build
ing and will be protected from the
larger children while at recess if they
have recess at.the same time. Only
the regular all day pupils will be
present at the noon recess.
This is not an exper iment with me
in my past experience; have had to
adopt this same plan of doubling up
sessions and making one building
serve for two. The results are very
much more satisfactory than would be
The teachers will do inten-
sive work for the pupils who are here
for only the half day and they will,
emphasize the essentials SO that the
will make good progress.

GERMS In HEX SYSTEM
Every Woman Should Read This
Advice and the Generous Of
fer that Goes With 1t.

The number Of diseases peculiar
to women is such that we believe
this space would hardly contain a
mere mention of their names.
and it is a fact that most Of these
diseases are of a catarrhal nature.
A woman cannot be we'll if there
is trace of catarrh in he system.
Some women think there is no
help for them. We positively
declare this to be a mistaken idea.
We are so sure of this that we
offer to supply medicine absolute
ly free of all cost in every instance
where it fails to give satisfaction,
does notsubstantIate our claims.
With this understanding, no wo-
man should hesitate to believe our
honesty of purpose, or hesitate to
put our claims to test.
There is only one way to over
come catarrh. That way is through
the blood. You may use all the
snuffs, douches OF like remedies
for years without getting more
than temporary relief at best.
Catarrh in general is a diseased
condition ofthe system that shows
locally most frequently in dis
charges from mucous membranes.
Local treatment should be assist
ed by internal treatment for the
general diseased condition if a
complete cure is to be reached.
That internal treatment should
be scientifically deutschland faith
fully administered.
Rexall Mucu-Tone is scientifcal-
ly prepared from the prescription
of an eminent physician who for
thirty years made catarrh his
speciality. This remedy is ad.
mirably adapted to the treatment
of the catarrhal ailments OF
women. 1t purifies and enriches
the blood. tends to stop mucous
discharges. aids in removing i'm
purities from the system, soothes,
heals and strengthens the mu-
cous tissues. and brings about a
feeling of health and strength
