WHY WOMEN
Write LETTERS
To Lydia E. Pinkham Medi-
cine Co.

Women who are well often asx care
the letters which the Lydia E. Pinkhsm
Medicine Co. are continually publishing,
genuine?" Are they truthful !"
"Why do women write such letter.? !"
In answer we say that never have We
published a fictitious letter or name.
Never, knowingly, have we published
an untruthful letter, or one without the
full and written consent Of the woman
who wrote it.
The reason that thousands Of women
from all parts Of the country write such
grateful letters to the Lydia E. Pink
ham Medicine Co. is that Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound has brought
health and happiness into their lives,
once burdened with pain and suffering.
It has relieved women from some Of
the worst forms of female ills, from dis.
placements, inflammation, liberation,
Irregularities, nervousness, weakness,
stomach troubles and from the blues.
It is impossible for any woman who
has never suffered NNNT
to realize how these M~UHNM

CONGRESS in Doubt,

New York, Nov. 7-Congressional
election returns were insufficient at
II o'clock tonight to indicate what
would be the complexion of congress.
At that hour, however, the repub-
licans had gained two senators, one
in New York, and one in Maine,
elected last September, and the in
dication was that they would gain at
least three more, two in Indiana and
one in New Jersey. To gain control
of the senate the republicans must
win nine seats beside holding their
own.'
Although republican party leaders
predicted tonight that the democratic
majority of % in the present house
would be wiped out the early returns
showed net gain of one for the
republicans, through the defeat of
McGillicuddy in Maine last Septem-
her, They gained two in New York,
but this was offset by democratic
gain of one in North Carolina and
one in Pennsylvania. > -,

Hughes Receives the News.

New York, Nov. 7.-Charles E.,
Hughes and his family received the
election returns here tonight at the
uptown hotel, which has been the
republican nominees headquarters
since his nomination.
When the early returns began to
come in Mr.. Hughes was asleep. He
slept until $50 o'clock. Meantime
the telegraph instruments in an ad-
Joining room had been clicking for
two hours and sheaf of kilograms
showing the trend in New York were
awaiting Mr.. Hughes. The first
paper handed to him told of an an
nouncement by New York news
paper that he had carried New York
state by 10000 plurality.
Mr.. Hughes smiled. Mrs. Hughes
and their two daughters, the Misses
Catherine, Elizabeth and Helen,
scanned the returns over Mr.. Hughes
shoulder. Presently Chas. E. Hughes,
Jr.; and his wife and DR.. Colin s.
Carter, Mrs. Hughes brother, Joined
the group. Dinner was ordered, the
first in months at which the entire
family had been present.

thousand years is nothing in the evo-
luton of races and men. Men have
been standing upright thousands of
years longer than they have lived in
houses; still they are suffering from
attempt to keep this attitude, as is
evidenced by the prevalence of her
Mas. So houses are the cause of dis
eases. So long as man was contented
to be protected from the most rigor-
Gus weather all was we'll, but he soon
got to the point that he did not want
air to touch him, practically, and
built his houses so that air could not
come in.
There is no finer tonic than crisp
cold air. 1t sends the blood coursing
through the veins at swifter rate
and stirs up the body cells to greater
activity, the cheeks Jingle and the
brain works more smoothly. No
hunter comes back from his "expos-
ure" with cold, but they take cold
easily after being housed up for few
days. Indians and trappers do not
have the disease of the respiratory
tract that we in the protected districts
have. The lesson to learn is that in
stead of less we need and require
more air. All of us need to sleep with
our windows open. The air will re-
vive the slumbering cells and over
come some of the mistakes Of the day
which we commit by being housed up.
Every baby should have daily airings.
1t matters not if the air is cold, or
damp, or day air, or night air, just
so it is fresh air we battle our lungs
in. Too much hot air is monotonous
if not actually injurious to some peo-
pie.
Children must be watched for wet
feet. In the excitement and interest
of play they frequently forget to
warm themselves. Every person
ought to go to bed with warm feet
and a cool head.
Churches and amusement places
should have adequate ventilation. It
may offend some people to talk of
dancing under any circumstances, but
if we must dance, for goodness sake
let the place be we'll aired, for if the
halls are too warm there is perspira-
ton and chilliness when the people
depart, all of which conduces to colds
and discomfort with possible doctors
bill.
Let us get plenty of air so that we
may wipe out the frightful high NOR
tality of the Negro from pneumonia
and tuberculosis.

Kansas In Doubtful Column.

Kansas City, NO., Nov. 8.-Kansas
still is in the doubtful column on
early returns from 433 precincts
gave President Wilson 1854 votes
against 63,838 for Hughes. Most
Of this vote was from the city pre-
cincts and as politicians were I'M
able to forecast how the country
districts would go it was considered
impossible to award the state to
either of the two leading presiden-
tial candidates.
The republicans claimed the state
for Hughes on the incomplete re-
turns, Charles Sessions, the state
chairman, saying they Indicated
republican plurality. Democratic
headquarters would not comment
upon the returns.
Governor Capper, on the face of
the returns from 367 precincts, has
been elected over w. c. Lansdon,
his democratic opponent The re-
turns showed him to have polled
68,361 against 1861 for Lansdon.
The republicans apparently have
