Wowftmrt Get the Blues : In I When a cheerful , brave and light-hearted woman is sud denly plunged into that perfection of misery , the blues , it is i a sad picture. - It is usually this way : She has been feeling out of sorts for some time , experi encing severe headache and backache ; sleeps very poorly and is exceedingly nervous. Sometimes she is nearly overcome by faintness , dizzi ness , and palpitation of the heart ; then that bearing-down feeling is dreadfully wearing. Her husband says , "Now , don't get the blues ! You will be all right after you have taken the doctor's medicine/ ' But she does not get all right. She grows worse day by day , until all at once she realizes that a distressing female complaint is established. Her doctor has made a mistake. She loses faith ; hope vanishes ; then comes the morbid , melancholy , everlasting blues. She should have been told just what the trouble was , but probably she withheld some information from the doctor , who , therefore , is unable to accurately locate her particular illness. Mrs. Pipkham .has relieved thousands of women from lust this kind of trouble , and now retains their grateful letters in her library as proof of the great assistance she has rendered them. This same assistance awaits every sick woman in the land. Mrs. Winifred AHender's Letter. " DEAE MRS. PISKHAM : I feel it my duty towrite and tell you of the benefit I have received from your wonderful remedies. Before taking Lydia E. Pink- ham's Vegetable Compound , 1 was a misery to my self and every one around me. I suffered terrible pain in my back , head , and right side , \vas very nervous , would cry for hours. Menses would appear sometimes in two weeks , then again not for three or four months. I was so tired and weak , could not sleep nights , sharp pains would dart through my heart that would almost cause me to fall. "My mother coaxed me to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I had no faith in it , but to please her I did so. The first bottle helped me so much that I continued its use. I am now well and MRS.WIHIFRED ALLENDER weigh more than I ever did in my life. " MES.

Pilipino Leader Announces His Puture Allegiance to United States , ADDRESSES PEOPLE TOR PEACE 8 : ys Best Interests Now Demand Cessa tion of Hostllstlcs Thinks They Can Do Most for Islands by Abandoning Unavailing : Struggle. MANILA , April 20. The following is Aguinaldo's address to the Filipino people , made public this evening : "I believe I am not in error in pre suming that the unhappy fate to which my 'adverse fortune has led me is not a surprise to thoss who have been familiar with the progress of the war. The lessons taught with a full meaning and which have recently came to my knowledge suggest with irresistible force that a complete ter mination of hostilities and lasting peace are not only desirable , but ab solutely essential to the welfare of the Philippine islands. The Filipinos have never been dismayed at their weakness , nor have they faltered in following the path pointed out by their fortitude and courage. "The time has come , however , in which they find their advance along this path is to be impeded by an ir resistible force which , while it re strains them , yet enlightens their , minds and opens to them another course , presenting them the cause of peace. This cause has been joyfully embraced by the majority of my fellow countrymen , who have already united around the glorious sovereign banner of the United States. In this banner they repose their trust and belief that under its protection the Filipino people ple will attain all those promised lib erties which they are beginning to en joy. "The country has declared unmis takably in favor of peace. So be it. There has been enough blood , enough tears and enough desolation. This wish cannot be ignored by the men still in arms if they are animated by a desire to serve our noble people , which has thus clearly manifested its will. So do I respect thid will , now tbat it is known to me. "After mature deliberation I reso lutely proclaim to the world that I cannot refuse to heed the voice of a people longing for peace nor the la mentations of thousands of families yearning to see their dear ones en joying the liberty and the promised generosity of the great American na tion. "By acknowledging and accepting the sovereignty of the United States 'throughout the Philippine archipelago , as I now do , and without any reserva tion whatsoever , I believe that I am serving thee , my beloved country. May happiness be thine. " To signaliez this important step in the pacification of the country Gen eral MacArthur orders the release , on swearing allegiance to the United States , of 1,000 insurgent prisoners. WASHINGTON , April 20 Coinci dent with the issue of the manifesto at Manila , Secretary Root made pub lic the copy received from General MacArthur.

The written opinion of Justice Gray of the United States supreme court on the divorce cases passed on by the court last Monday became avail able today , thus affording the first opportunity for inspection of Justice Gray's language.

J. , had visited North Dakota for three weeks in May , 1897 , and in August of that year returned and instituted his suit for divorce three days after Ills ar rival the second time , never having mentioned his May visit to any of his friends or relatives in the east. The decision in this case , aside from the recital of the history of it , was very brief , being In the following words : "The law of North Dakota requires a domicile In good faith of the llbel- lant for ninety days as a prerequisite to jurisdiction of a case of divorce. The facts in evidence warranted and indeed required the finding that the husband had no bona fide domicile in the state of Nroth Dakota when he obtained a divorce there and it is not pretended that the wife had an inde pendent domicile in North Dakota or was ever in that state. The court of that state , therefore , had no jurisdic tion. " WOULD BOW TO THE CZAR. Prince Tuan and General Tan Fa Sinn Ready to Yield to Russia. LONDON , April 19.
