Because your case is a difficult one,
doctors having done you no good, do not
continue to suffer without giving Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound a
trial. 1t surely has remedied many
cases of female ills, such as inhamma-
ton, liberation, displacements, tumors,
irregularities, periodic pains, backache,
and it may be exactly what you need.
The Pinkham record is a proud and
peerless one. 1t is a record of constant
victory over the obstinate ills of woman
ills that deal out despair. 1t is an es-
tablished fact that Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound has restored
health to thousands of such suffering
women. Why don't you try it if you

Fifteen THOUSAND
PERSONS HOMELESS
Fire at Toxic Causes Immense
Damage to Property.

Toxic, Feb. 21.-More than $4,000
persons are homeless as a result of
fire which swept through the center
of the Kanda district of the city.
The fire started in the Salvation
Army hall. A high wind famed the
flames and they spread very rapidly
from street to street, destroying $500
buildings. The loss is estimated at
several million yen.
Among the buildings burned were
several churches, including the Bap-
fist tabernacle and a number of edu-
cational institutions. including the
school of foreign languages.
Troops were called out to assist The
fremen, but they were almost help
less against the wind driven flames.
Many of the homeless are being
sheltered In Kudan park.

NATION PAYS BIC
/ LAST MARTYR
New Luster Comes, as Years
Roll by, to Memory Of
Mckinley.

As the years roll by new luster
N grows round a hallowed name
l and new appreciation
into the hearts of the people
Tor their dead hero. 1t is coming more
forcibly TO be known with each sue
ceeding anniversary of Jan. %, 1913,
that William Mckinley, the m~artyred
president, was a great and good man.
Thus, on the anniversary Of his birth,
the nation fguratlvely bows its head
Ind does homage to the memory of
Mckinley. Carnation day, MS the an
piversary Is known from coast 10 coast
and lakes to gulf, is one Of the most
eolemn memorial days on the Amerl-
can calendar.
In life President Mckinley stood def
nitely for certain economic and pollti-
cal beliefs which engendered opposi-
tion by many other big contempora-
rfes, but II Is now known by all, be.
cause Of the test that time has placed
upon most OF the public policies treat
ed by him. that President Mckinley
was a clear thinking, big Drained and
In every way really great executive.
Time. the one sure appraiser, has
stamped the record of the martyred
president with the mark OF highest APP
probation.

flower in a picturesque way and wore
1t on all occasions thereafter, finding
in 1t the expression of purity, beauty
and simplicity.
When Mr.. Mckinley was governor of
Ohio a beyy Of girl students of Lake
Erie college, at gainesville, made him
al honorary member of their class and
pinned their class flower, the carna-
ton, to the lapel of his coat. He after
ward eyinced an interest In the class
and remembered the girls and was re-
membered by them on many occasions.
At each reunion Of the class a box of
carnations was sent to him.
The idea Of the Carnation League of
America occurred to Lewis G.. Reyn-
Olds of Dayton, o. On the first ami
versary of the presidents death he
happened to be I'm Buffalo, which was
In deep mourning. Knowing that the
carnatlon had been Mr.. McKinley's
favorite flower, Mr.. Reynolds supplied
himself with one and wore it that day.
The idea grew upon him, and q few
weeks later he brought II to the atten-
ton of the Mckinley National Memo
rial association. The late Senator
Mark Hanna, then president Of the
league, and other officers gave the plan
their immediate approval, and the Car
nation League of America was found
ed. Through Its officers the ministers
throughout the country were Influenced
to devote special memorial sermons to
the memorial day, and the newspapers
We're readily enlisted also in the move
ment.
1t had been suggested originally to
fix Sept. IA, the day of Mr.. McKinley's
death, as the anniversary to be com
memorated, but this idea gave way
soon before the general belief that it
was best to celebrate the martyrs
birth.

A High Personal Tribute.

Likewise Frank A. Munsey speaks
Of President McKinley's character I'm
strong terms. Said Mr.. Munsey:
"In William Mckinley there was the
most perfect binding OF pure democra-
cy and splendid dignity possible to
a His democracy was as pure and
true as the best example this country
has ever produced. whether on the
farm, I'm the professions or In the af-
fairs of business, and his dignity was
of the finer kind, which sprang from
his own soul rather than that reflected
from exalted station. He was always
William Mckinley alike In the army
as a common soldier, In congress and
In the White House as the chief mag
lstrate of a great nation-always the
man and never the official. Genius In
art, In science and In craftsmanship
fascinates us. We admire Ii and bow
down before Ii, but we love where
there is love-a heart that responds to
nj hearts, warm and tender and
true"
Mr.. McKinley's ancestors were Da-
vid and Esther Mckinley, who came
to this country from Ireland In 1743.
He attended Union seminary, at Po-
land, o., until 1860. Later he attended

Anecdotes of Mckinley.

Rutherford b. Hayes, then ex-presi-
dent, told a rather interesting episode
Of Mr.. McKinley's life In the army
when Mr.. Hayes was introducing Mr..
Mckinley to an audience after his
nomination for governor In 1891.
Mr.. Hayes declared that on the
bloodIest day OF the war, the day In
which the battle Of Antietam was at
Its height, Mr.. Mckinley, the young
man who had risen as quartermaster
under Hayes, distributed hot coffee
and meats to the men with his own
hands. He had risked his life under
fre to forage the food so necessary to
b famished and WORKOUT soldiers.
The late Senator Hanna had a IA
vorite story, which he took considerable
delight In telling, as relating to his
friend William Mckinley. This is the
story:
"Mr. Mckinley always appeared at
the executive Office In the morning
with a carnation In his ~buttonhole, and
when 1t became necessary to turn down
an office seeker who had succeeded In
obtaining a personal interview he
would remoye the flower from his own
lapel and place 1t In that of his visitor.
1t was generally understood by those
In the outer Offices that when a caller
emerged with the decoration upon him
1t was all the latter had obtained"
