This Fact - that in addressing Mrs. Pinkham you are con-

perience with women's diseases covers twenty-five years.
The present Mrs. Pinkham, daughterin-law Of Lydia z.
Pinkham, was fer years under her direction, and has ever
since her decease continued to advise women.
Many women suffer in silence and drift along from bad
to worse, knowing well that they ought to have immediate
assistance, but a natural modesty causes them to shrink
from exposing themselves to the questions and probable
examinations Of even their family physician. Such ques-
tioning and examination is unnecessary. Without cost
you can consult a woman whose knowledge from actual
experience is great.

TAKING TIME BY FoRELocK.

The British House of Lords will not
wait for the Commons to swing the ak.
The titled gentlemen propose to be first
in the field with a measure for the re-
form of their chamber Whether the
commoners can be induced to accept
the Roseberry bill as a settlement of
the vexed question is more than doubt
full. and it may be that both sides will
appeal to the country in the near fu-
ture. The one thing certain is that the
Lords are going to be shorn Of some of
their power. How far the reform will
extend is a matter of conjecture. The
Irish Nationalist would like to abolish
the upper house altogether, but that
can hardly be accomplished. Rural
England is devotedly attached to the
ancient institutions, so much so that
there is some danger of a conservative
victory at the next election if the Lib
erals are too radical in their demands.
England tried a parliament with one
house in the time Of Cromwell. That
worthy concluded that even the Com
mons was not necessary adjunct of
the government, so he gave Parliament
its quietus altogether. Since the resto-
ration, the British Parliament has con-
sisted of two houses, the Lords and the
Commons. 1t will probably remain so.

REMEMBERING THE MAINE.

The House of Representatives has
gone upon record as favoring the rails
ing of the battleship Maine, and has
passed a bill with that end in view. If
favorably considered in the Senate. the
remains of the vessel will be removed
from Havana harbor, the bodies of the
dead removed from the wreck and in
tered in the Arlington cemetery, and
last, but not least by any means, the
cause of the disaster will be ascer-
tanned. If the explosion came from
within, it was an accident; if from
without the ship was blown up by the
Spaniards. Both theories have been
discussed for a number of years with
no possible way of ascertaining the
truth, unless Congress should order the
wreck raised. Now that the House has
passed the bill it is to be hoped the
Senate will do likewise and settle the
vexed question for all time.
Some of those who believe the explo-
sion came from the inside and was
purely accidental also hold to the opin-
ion that this country should not have
waged war against Spain and enabled
Cuba to gain her freedom. They also
claim that in case the theory of acct
dent is established it will put the Unit
ed States in bad light for having used
the incident as pretext for humiliat-
ing Spain. We hardly think so. The
dons had it coming. Cuba had been
devastated and desolated by an almost
perpetual conflict, and this country
would have been compelled to interfere
sooner or later. The Spaniards were not
fit to govern and refused to release the
Gem Of the Antilles from their clutches.
The blowing up of the Maine, while it
doubtless fastened the chastisement OF
Spain, was not the sole cause of it. The
war had to come.

ERA OF ExTRAVAoANcE.

That food prices are high, not alb
normally so in many cases, cannot be
denied. 1t is also a fact that wages
are also high, at least much higher
than they were when prices were low
and the wherewithal to buy was lack
ing. The two seem to go together. Be
fore civil war all Kinds Of commodities
were dirt cheap. and iaborers received
as much as fifty cents for twelve hours
of hard work. The high price question
will probably settle itself before the
numerous inquiries and Investigations
are concluded. There is something to
be said, though, in connection with the
charge heard so often recently that the
people of the United States are extrav-
agant, very extravagant, in their man.

SOME TIMELY ADVICE.

"A good name is rather to be chosen
than great riches, and loving favor
rather than silver and gold" That is
text which should be deeply engraven
IN the minds of every youth and little
miss in the land. The loss of good
name il the worst catastrophe that
could possibly happen to boy or girl
older people who have battled with the
world for two or perhaps three-score
wears have learned by bitter experience
how easy it is to fall into temptation,
and appreciate the wisdom of the
proverb above quoted. Younger ones
dance carelessly along, regardless OF
consequences, in too many instances,
until irreparable damage is done. With
the coming of the summer season and
the opening of pleasure resorts, the
boys and girls should put a double
check upon themselves and not rush
heedlessly into wrongdoing. Years OF
sorrow and anguish will not bring back
the innocence of youth, nor can good
name once sullied be restored to its
original purity. Keep the text in mind
and all will be well.

WHICH eossa

In pretty much every little insurgent
between bosses than an effort for en-
reimbursement from all bosses. And the
most hopeful insurgent in the world
knows his cause will win no victory
without organization and discipline, di-
rection and obedience. And he knows
that without these factors it will never
remain in control, even after the de-
sired position has been achieved.
That is illustrated in every recurrence
of the uncontrolled.
But it had a peculiar expression in
that Albany situation last week, when
the defenders Of the grafters worked
themselves up TO fever heat in their eff
fort to compel obedience to their COM
mands, and then yelled like sin at the
suggestion of Senator Root that they
abandon their bad course, and adopt a
more frank and candid one.
They demanded obedience from all the
country members of the state commit
tee. But they resented any implication
of allegiance to the national organiza-
ton. or to representatives of the party
in the nation.
And in the very noisiest of their clam
or against federal interference" they
insisted on their own right to interfere
The effect of their course is seen in
hurt to the Republican party. The
presence of some scoundrels there is es-
tablished. 1t would be better for the
state leaders to take orders than to con-
tinue giving them. The party, the state
and the nation all are damaged by the
survival of the old bosses at Albany.

gas range in the kitchen and electric
lights all over the house, and there are
numerous other things for which the
monthly bills come in that were not
used by our grandparents. But that is
merely living, not extravaganza. It has
been shown that more money is de-
posted in savings banks per capita in
the United States than in any other
country IN the world, so we're thrifty
in that respect. We pay high prices
because we can afford to, and will con-
tinue to pay them rather than go back
to the hog and hominy period Of fifty
cents day.
James j. Hin is the apostle of econ
omy. The man of many millions would
have us tighten up our belts and save
the money paid for our meals, or at
least cut our living expenses in two.
It's easy to talk that way, much easier
than to put into practice. This country
isn't or the verge of ruin; there is no
general restitution; work is abundant
and wages good. Why shouldn't the
wage-earner be allowed to live as web
as he can afford, without being chided
by some multi-millionaire for his auda-
city?

RESULT oF The CAUCUS.

The Republicans of the House of
Representatives, both regulars and in
surgents, went into caucus and named
the majority members of the committee
on rules. They all participated and
promised to abide by the result of a
free and open ballot. Six men were
named, John Dalzell Of Pennsylvania
ranking member of the old committee,
heading the list. No insurgent or near
insurgent found place. Perhaps none
of them expected to be chosen. The
House is certain to ratify the selec-
lions made by the caucus and also the
men named by the Democratic minori-
ty. Harmony having been restored,
there is no reason why the measures
advocated by President Taft should
not be made laws. The country is wait
ing for the work to be done. and well
done. It's up to Congress to get busy

NEW RuLEs COMMITTEE.

The action of the Republican caucus
In the matter of the selection of the
majority members of the new rules
committee is apparently satisfactory to
all concerned. The men chosen are all
stalwarts of the first water and can be
depended upon to uphold the cause Of
their party whenever 1t becomes neces-
sary. John Dalzell of Pennsylvania
heads the list. The Pittsburg repre-
sentative has served long in the House,
and is a man of wide experience in
public affairs. He was a member Of the
rules committee before Mr.. Cannon was
elected speaker, and has continued to act
in that capacity ever since the advent
of the Illinois statesman in the chair,
AS a parliamentarian Mr.. Dalzell has
no superior, which fact, taken in con-
pection with his long period of service
and general fitness for the place. justly
entities him to the Craftsmanship I'm
der the new dispensation.
Walter I. Smith of Iowa has been a
member of Congress for several years
"a
Ohio on the rules committee. Judge
Smith has never been impued with any
of the Iowa ''idees," and has always
proved a tower of strength in party
councils. Lawrence of Massachusetts,
Fassett of New York, Boutell of Hi.
nois and Smith of California can all
read their Republican title clear. The
rank and file Of the great party will
certainly acquiesce in the decision of
the caucus.
What have the insurgents gained
Nothing that is visible to the naked
eye. Gardner, son-in-law of Senator
Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts,
who should know better than to affiliate
with the insurgents, received 50 votes
in the caucus, and Norris of Nebraska
was found to have a total of seven
when the ballots were counted. These
men and their handful of followers
profess to be satisfied. But what have
they gained? Speaker Cannon has been
eliminated from the rules committee,
il is true, and the committee enlarged
from five to ten members. Instead of
three Republicans and two Democrats.
we have six Republicans and four
Democrats. The insurgents were not
represented on the old committee. and
the Republicans on the new one are all
straight, true-biue party men. Legisla-
ton for the cOuntry's good will be en-
acted in the future pretty much the
same as in the past, and filibusterers
will continue to receive scant consider
alton when the time arrives to take
vote on any important measure Speak
err Cannon is no longer a member Of the
rules committee, but the Republicans
are in control and the personal and po-
liticaI friends of the speaker will DOM
mate and the usual course of proceed
ure will not be changed. All the IN
surgents accomplished by assisting the
Democrats was to stir up strife for a
few DAYS and attract the attention of
the country to the fact that men Of
small mental calibre are sometimes
elected to Congress.
The trouble in the House is over Let
business proceed in the regular and Or
binary channels.
