Bocauso your caso is a difficult one,
doctors having dono you no pood,
do not continue to suffer without
giving Lydia E. Plnkham's Vogotablo
Compound a trial. It surely has cured
many casos of fomalo ills, such as In
flammation, ulceration, displacements,
fibroid tumors, irregularities, periodic
pains, backacho, that boaring-dowu

Uncle Sam Probes Third Degree System
WASHINGTON. Ono of the Inves
tigating committees act In motion
at tho late session of congress that Is
expected to yield some interesting ro-
buub Is tho subcommittee of (lvo sena
tors, mombers of tho Jud:lnry com
mittee, vho havo been dlrOcted to In
vestigate and roport on tho workings
of tho "third degrco," ns exemplified
by federal officers in criminal prosecu
tions. Tho Investigation will take a wide
rango. One member of tho committee
will bo sent to Oklahoma to learn
what basis thero Is for tho charge
made by Gov. Haskell and his friends,
that tho prosecutions started agalnBt
him under the Roosevelt administra
tion wero Inspired by personal malice,
and that tho methods resorted to by
the special agents of tho government
In their efforts to convict Haskell,
woro discreditable.
Another branch of tho Investigation
will relate to Bomo of tho western
prosecutions, especially thoso con
ducted by Robert Kny Devlin, ns
United States attorney for tho North
ern district of California. Devlin's
nomination was hung up In tho Judi
ciary commltteo of tho sennto for a
long time, on a complaint that he had
"Corpse" Aroused by
UT1 HERE'S a dead man In that al
1 ley."
This exclamation by nn excited col
ored man at Eleventh and E streets,
In Washington, caused considerable
consternntlon among pedestrians and
loungers in that vicinity a few days
ago. Ho pointed to n narrow alleyway
on the north side of E street between
Eleven and Twelfth streets, between
two buildings.
Pretty soon the mouth of the little
alley was blocked by curious people.
A business mnn In the neighborhood
who peered over tho heads of tho mor
bid crowd and saw a man stretched
out full length, nnd apparently very
111 or dead, In tho alleyway, telephoned
to the Emergency hospital for an am
bulance. Other men ran hither and
thither In search of a policeman.
"Ho may bo drunk," suggested nn
old man as he gazed at tho prostrate
form.
Sold MacVeagh Spoiled Vinegar; Fined
JAMES WILSON, secretary of agri
culture, has been hot-footing it aft
er a Chicago man who had tho
temerity to sell Franklin MacVeagh,
secretary of the treasury, a barrel of
bogus vinegar. MacVeagh bought the
vinegar believing it was the real
thing, the kind that fnthor used to
make on the farm, fit to put on let
tuce and pickle pigs' feet with and all
that sort of thing.
The looks and smell of tho stuff
mndo him suspicious, and so he hat
lboed for tho pure food Inspectors
to como nnd exainlno. They reported
tho alleged vinegar was In reality
adulterated nnd artificially colored
nnd mlsbrnndcd. A criminal Informa
tion was filed agalnBt the luckless
storekeeper and ho wna tnkon Into
tho United States court, nccused of
deceiving and misleading MncVeagh.

RECENT bulletin of the depart

who, after being Indicted, was finally
discharged for want of evidence
A special ngont of tho department
of Justice sent out to Investigate tho
chargo made a written roport that Dr.
Perrln should never havo boen In
dicted; that improper methods woro
employed to bring about his Indict
ment, and even after the government
officers were nwaro thn't they could
not mnko a caso against Dr. Perrln,
tho Indictment was allowed to hang
over his head for many months, to his
great personal detriment.

Jack Johnson's victory," said a third.
In tho menntlmo tho Emergency hos
pital ambulance with clanging gong
arrived on tho scene, nnd a policeman
with perspiration streaming down his
fnco rushed up to tho mouth of tho
alley and was forcing his way through
the crowd to get at tho supposed dead
mnn.
Tho noise nroused tho "corpse."
Tho prostrate figure slowly arose, dis
closing tho stalwart form of a necro.
Ho ' gazed In astonishment nt tho
crowd that blocked up tho entrance to
the nlley and saw the policeman and
white-coated Emorgency surgeon el
bowing their way toward him. With
a yawn nnd a stretch of his arms, tho
negro darted Into tho side door of a
printing office, slamming tho door be
hind him.
Investigation disclosed the fact that
tho negro has been employed at tho
printing establishment a number of
years. Ho said ho was tired and went
out into tho quiet, cool nlloyway to
take n nap during the lunch hour,
That was all.
The man pleaded guilty nnd was fined

on the Lowly Toad
clulin to consideration and apprecia
tion. First of all, as to tho longevity
of the toad, the Investigators express
the opinion that many tonds reach an
nge of nt least ten or fifteen years,
They also believe it possible for tho
toad to llvo for a limited time with
out food, but doubt stories about toads
being found in rocks nnd trees.
