To lydia E. Pinkharn Medi-
cine Co.

Women who are we'll often ask care
the letters which the Lydia E. Pinkham
Medicine Co. are continually publishing,
genuine?" care they truthful 2"
"Why do women write such letters? 2"
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.

HEARINGS ON DYESTUFFS
 SITUATION THIS WEEK.
Massachusetts to Appear Before the
 House Committee.

Washington, Jan. 9.-After a week of experimentation in the senate and house. congressional excitement over the foreign relations of the United States has been considerably allayed. Administration leaders appeared to have succeeded in prevailing upon most of their colleagues to adopt a policy of patient waiting for complete investigation of recent war zone in cident in which American lives were sacrificed.
 It is certain, however, that there will be almost daily discussion at the capitol of the condition affecting the United States as a result of the European war.
 Committees will begin work tomor- row framing the rivers and harbors' bill, which will aggregate approximate ly $40, 100000, the urgent deficiency bill, for which bills aggregating $3,- o00,000 already are in for the present fiscal year, the Indian appropriation bill, aggregating $10.o00,o 900 and the postoff1ce appropriation bill
 One of the hearings of the session vii be on the dyestuffs situation. Large delegaations from Connecticut, Massachusetts and elsewhere are pre- pairing to appear before the house ways and means committee next Fri day to urge legislation to build up the dyestuffs industry in this country.

MoHR MURDER TRIAL
 IN PROVIDENCE TODAY
1t Is Understood Healis Will Be States
 Principal Witness.

Providence, R. l., Jan. 9.--A murder trial of unusual interest, in which Mrs. Elizabeth F. Mohr- and two negroes will appear as defendants on charges growing out of the killing of her hus- band, Dr. Franklin Mohr, four months ago. will begin here tomorrow. Mrs. Mohr is under indictment as an ac- cessory before the fact to the fnur- der, the states contention being that, prompted by jealousy, she hired the negroes to commit the crime. Cecil " Brown and Henry Spellman, half brothers, are the negroes who will be tried for murder.
 Dr. Mohr, who was accompanied by his secretary, Miss Emily Burger, was shot from ambush on the West Bar rington road on the night of August 31, while his automobile was stalled. He died of his wounds without re- covering consciousness, but Miss Bur ger, although shot twice, survived. It is the claim of the state that the au- tomobile was purposely stalled by George W. Healis, Dr. Mohr's negro chauffeur, at point previously agreed upon with the other negroes, who had come up from behind on motorcycles.
 Healis will not be tried. He was unexpectedly brought into court by Assistant Attorney General Abbott Phillips last Friday and, after the murder indictment found against him had been quashed, pleaded nolo con tendre to a charge of menslaughter. Sentence has been deferred. It is un- derstood that he win appear as the states principal witness.
 Shortly after the murder Healis made an alleged confession to the po- lice of Harrington to the effect that he had driven over the Harrington road at the suggestion of Brown a stable man whom Dr. Mohr had dis charged. He alleged that Brown was acting for Mrs. Mohr. Subsequently, the police are said to have obtained from the other two negroes a state ment that they were in the pay of the physicians wife, that she had bought the motorcycles which they used and had agreed to give Healis and Brown $2, 2,000 each, and Spellman $500. The men later retracted these statements and it is uncertain whether they will be used in the trial

 The other directors were aeIdorn mentioned in the evidence and their. chief defense was that they depended | upon the advice of Charles S.

 The jury did not at first move. Then one of the four. who had been stand ing out for conviction, whispered to head negatively, arose abruptly and
 the others followed suit, the twelve 1 filing out.
 Counsel and defendants at that time predicted that no verdict would be
 reached for at least another day and

FAMOUS OLD SIOUX
 CHIEF A SUICIDE.
Chief OeaIiaIa Fire Took Part in the
 Custer Massacre.

Chicago, Jan. 9.-Chief Ogal1ala Fire, who fought with Sitting Bull in the Custer massacre, died at a hospital today, aged 90. A week ago, appar- ently tired of life, he cut his throat and has been unconscious much of the time since.
 Chief Ogallala Fire was one of the Sioux Indian chiefs who with Sitting Bull fought against the encroachments of the white settlers and who repeat edly gave battle to United States reg ulars.
 He was severely wounded in the battle in which General Custer and his troops were slaughtered and bore the sears of that encounter to his death. Two bullet wounds and a sabre slash left him wounded on the field and 1t was months before he was able to take part in other fights.
 He was known as one of the bravest of the Indian chiefs who followed Sit ting Bull and the annals of western Indian warfare have many tales of raids planned and executed by Chief Ogallala Fire.
 On the hospital cot the aged In- dian said he did not like to talk of the old days of Indian war. We did men. We had to yield. It is not right for me to talk of the days when we went on the warpath because now it is not considered brave" said the old chief.
 One of the proudest possessions of the old man s a soldiers belt which the chief said he had taken from an adversary killed by him at Clusters last fight The belt is now covered with beads.
 When Chief Ogallala Fire made his first appearance in a wild west show he wore a long chair main of $5 and $1e gold pieces. His granddaughter said that he gave nearly all of the gold pieces to children in neighbor- hoods in which he had lived.

ITALY HAS ORDERED
 CENSUS OF ALL GRAIN
Acquisition is Authorized by the MiIi-
 tary Authorities.

Rome Jan. 8, S.s5 D. m.-A decree signed by the Duke of Genoa, as lieutenant general of King Emmanuel, orders that a census of all grain be taken not later than January 25. It is provived that any person failing to announce the quantity of grain he possesses or makes any false state ments is punishable by a years i'm prisonment and $1.000 fine.
 Another decree establishes rules for the requisition of grain by the mili- tary authorities Resistance to requi- sition is punishable by a years im- prisonment and $2,000 fine in addition to conf1scafion of the cereals.
 The census and erquisitiening meas ures are intended to prevent specuia- ton in cereals and insure sufficient supply for the necessities of the army and the population and to keep down prices. The census decree makes 1t compulsory for whoever possesses more than five quintals of cereals to announce the qualtitl and the quali- ty of the grain in his possession. Each may indicate the quantity nec- essary for the consumption of his own family and agricultural laborers until the time for harvesting the new crop, the average being three quintals dur ing the twelve months. He may al- so indicate the quantity needed for the next sowing and for food for cat tie.
 Any sale of a quantity in excess of five quintals after January 21 must be reported to the authorities within five days. Cereals necessary for the con- sumption of the owner or for sowing or grinding during a period of two months or for food for cattle cannot be requisftioned. The price of thece- reals requisitioned is to be establish cd by committees appointed by army officials and is to be within limits fix ed hy the ministry of war.
