WOMAN'S MOST
SUCCESSFUL
MEDICINE
Known All Over The World
known Only For The
Good 1t Has Done.

We know of no other medicine which
has been so successful in relieving the
suffering of women, or received so many
genuine testimonials, as has Lydia Z.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
In nearly every community you will
find women who have been restored TO
health by this famous medicine. Almost
every woman you meet knows of the
great good it has been doing among
suffering women for the past 80 years.
In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass, are files containing hundreds of
thousands of letters from women seek
ing health, in which many openly state
over their own signatures that they have
regained their health by taking Lydia
f. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
many of whom state that it has saved
them from surgical operations.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound is made from roots and herbs,
and is perfectly harmless.
The reason why it is so successful is
/ because it contains ingredients which act
directly upon the female organism, re-
storing it to healthy and normal activity.

Kingston, Jamaica = Americans
were not spared in the rioting which
has been going on here in connection
with the street railway trouble. A
party of Americans in an automobile
were attacked by mob and one of
them was injured seriously. The
party included Captain and Mrs. Fritz
Duquesne, of New York, and Mr.. and
Mrs. Wortley, of Brooklyn. A group
of men attacked their automobile with
bricks and stones. Mrs. Duquesne
was struck by one of the missiles and
is said to be in a serious condition.
The Americans were in peril of their
lives, but their asailants were finally
beaten off by Captain Duquesne,
armed with hammer, and Mr.. Wort
ley with a jack handle. Two of the
rioters were knocked unconscious.
Kingston was given over to mob
rule and as a result of collisions be-
tween the police and the populace two
men were killed and more than 80 in
jured, some of them severely.

Challenge for international Yachting
Trophy Expected From Him.
Chicago Sir Thomas Upton is pre-
pairing to challenge once more for the
Americas cup and prospects are ro-
seate for another great international
yacht race. This is the message
brought to Chicago by Sir William
Bull, of London, member Of parlia-
ment and prominent in sporting and
other public affairs in England. Sir
William speaks with authority con-
corning Upton, as he is a personal
friend and was one Of Sir Thomas
guests at New York when the last cup
race was sailed.
II feel sure that there will be an
other race, though l would not say
that Sir Thomas has made the an
nouncement. he said at the Congress
hotel. II want to say also that do
not think that there is anything un-
sportsmanlike in the attitude Of
American yachtsmen. They have a
perfect right to make conditions for a
race.
"While ] feel that it is handicap
to be compelled to bring boat across
the Atlantic, it is merely a condition
that cannot be avoided"

Of chihuahua. The march Of General
Campo across the state will begin i'm
mediately, according to announcement
made by the commander.
Colonel Antonio Rojas, with 700
rebels, arrived at Bauche shortly after
noon and stopped his march there, un-
aware of the developments at Juarez.
Campo ordered him to resume his
march and Rojas is expected to arrive
some time in the night.
General Campo declared that there
are 900 rebels already in Juarez and
that the arrival of Rojas' group will
give him the total of 1000 which he
asserted recently he would have in
Juarez. He says that Major Tomas
Loza will remain at Juarez with 500
men and that the remainder will pro-
coed southwark over the line of the
National Railways for an assault on
C Chihuahua, which is being held by
General Pasqual Orozco.
General Campo said that he did not
believe the report that Colonel Fran
cisco Villa with his loyal troops was
coming to Juarez, and that he consid-
ers the town safe from any assault by
Federals.
Following the seizure of the town
the Vasquistas set about the task of
establishing new municipal govern
ment and of maintaining perfect order.

Lawrence Textile Workers Resist Po-
lice and Militia.
Lawrence, Mass. The millworkers'
strike, now in it's seventh week, was
marked by recurrence of the riotous
scenes of Saturday. The disturb
ances, however, were not connected
with the expectation of children.
Police officers were forced to use
their clubs on crowd of strike sym
pathizers who had thrown stones at
them, following some arrests. A
small number of infantrymen and a
troop of cavalry were sent to the
scene and dispersed the crowd, which
offered no active resistance to the SOL
diers.
The city officials gave back to the
parents most of the children who were
taken in charge as they were about to
be placed on train en- route for Phil
adelphia. The children had passed
the night at the city poor farm.
The parents of these children will
be called into court to answer to
charges of child neglect. Leaders
of the Industrial Workers of the
World said that another attempt
would be made to send children to
homes provided for them in other
cities.
The leaders maintain that the au-
thorities overstepped their rights in
preventing the departure of the chill
dren. Federal investigation by con-
gress, it is said, will be welcomed by
the strikers.
Thus far more than 800 children
have been sent out Of the city under
the direction Of the Industrial Work
ers of the World.
The strike leaders and some of the
parents declared that they have q
legal right to send their children away
for q vacation. At the poor farm, on
the other handy the officials said that
when the parents called for their chill
dreu they said they had surrendered
them under Misrepresentation and that
they are now DESTROYS of taking them
home and keeping them there.

The capital, Bangkok, Is a handsome
city of some 100000 inhabitants. The
phone system and modern sanitation
all give the impression of modern
western city. The style Of architec-
ture Is being more and more modelled
after the western style and particu-
larly the Italian. Their houses are
many Of them similar to the detached
houses which are found in the sub
urbs of cities in this country. The
dress adopted by the people is west

public schools the only foreign Ian
guageL taught is English, which Is the
commercial language of the far east.
Although the religion of the Siamese
is Buddhism, the government makes
no objection to such foreign missions
as are established in Siam, particu-
larly because many of the schools
established by the missions teach
English. The late king, just before
he died, requested his son not to
spend large sums of money upon a
great funeral for him, but to spend
such money as he desired to devote to
the memory Of his father for the ben
oft of charitable institutions. The
present king has voluntarily sur
rendered about $650,0OO from his civil
list for the benefit OF the govern
ment.
The Siamese are peaceable people.
The army system there is very similar
to that of Germany, and each young
man is compelled to serve his three
years in the standing army and then
enter the reserves. None of the

CHILD'S HEAD
A MASS OF HUM0R

Il think the Cuticura remedies are
the best remedies for eczema / have
ever heard of. Ny mother had a child
who had a rash on its head when It
was real young. Doctor called it baby
rash. He gave us medicine, but it did
no good. In a few days the head was
a solid mass, a running sore. 1t was
awful; the child cried continually. We
had to hold him and watch him to
keep him from scratching the sore.
His suffering was dreadful. At last
we remembered Cuticura Remedies.
We got dollar bottle OF Cuticura Re-
solvent, a box of Cuticura Ointment,
and bar of Cuticura Soap. We gave
the Resolvent as directed, washed the
head with the Cuticura Soap, and ap-
piled the Cuticura Ointment. We had
not used half before the child's head
was clear and free from eczema, and
1t has never come back again. His
head was healthy and he had a beau
tiful head Of hair. think the Cuti-
cura Ointment very good for the hair.

FORAGE CROPS FOR
WESTERN FARMERS

Continued from last week.
The soiling System.

CONTINUED from last week.
The soiIing System.
There are a great many people in
this country who have come to the
conclusion that the soiling system
offers many advantages over pas
lures. have had considerable ex-
perience with soiling crops, and have
become entirely converted to the fact
that there is a place in our western
agriculture for this system of hus-
bandry. BY "soiling'' we mean grow
Ing constant succession of crops,
cutting them and feeding to the ami
mails in an Enclosure. The ADVANTAGES
claimed for this system over pastur-
age are numerous. 1t is claimed that
1t saves land; End, saves fences;
3rd, saves food; 9Th. results in better
eQl IoJ lIoJmoo ,aom puB uopIpuoo
farm animals; stu, a greater produc-
ton Of beef, milk, wool or mutton; 9Th,
increased quality and quantity of
barnyard manure. The disadvantages
are, that 1t requires increased labor.
On our small irrigated farms, how
ever, there is no question but that
the increased profit more than COM
pensates for the extra labor Mr.. H.
Stewart, who has had many years
Of experience in soiling, says that
$l.00 spent in extra labor by this sys-
tenn, is replaced ten times over in the
saving of land, saving of feed and
saving of manure. There is no rea-
SOB why the farmer should object to
the extra labor when there is found to
be profit in it. It. is rarely that a
man accumulates wealth from the la
Dor of his own hands.
Some of our Western farmers have
tried this system and have found that
the soiling system gives even better
results here than in the Eastern Sec
ton. This is due to the fact that in
the East lack of moisture may at
critical times seriously retard the
growth of plants, while here under ir-
rigation moisture can be applied at
any time desired.
Some years ago | made an expert
ment with the soiling system in Salt
Lake county. 1t may seem somewhat
surprising to say that the product of
two acres of ground proved sufficient
to maintain IL dairy COWS from the
18th of May until the 5th of October
1t should be added. however, that
these cows ate in addition to the
feeds suggested here, some alfalfa,
and each had a daily grain ration
varying from four to eight pounds.
The following soiling crops were used
and the time of sowing is shown,
as we'll as the time of cutting, the
daily feed per COW and the average
required for IL cows:
