Washington, Sept. 25. In her an
nual report to the Indian bureau,
Miss Estello Heel, general superin
tendent of Indian schools, advocates
moro Industrial training for the In
dian. Miss Heel believes in giving the
Indian child a good thorough train
ing In the fundamental English
branches, but says that the theory of
cramming the pupil with mere book
knowledge for generations to come
will be a failure. A course in farming
and such useful knowledge as will en
able him to shoe his own horse, mend
his own wagon, build his house and
do the general repair work about a
farm is recommended for the boys,
as well as the teaching of home-making
duties for the girls. The property
ownership plan has a prominent place
in Miss Heel's system of education.
A strong plea is made for compulsory
education and the cultivation of bet
ter crops and more acres of land is
urged.

The present day attitude of man to

for the pessimist to ponder over. The
modern philanthropist, not only loves
his neighbor as himself, but loves his
neighbor's dog, too, and ho would
be almost as quick to Interfere In that
animal's behalf as he would in that
of a beaten child. The wings of a bird

before, because their possessor Is now

notable feature of the census.

captured Erasmus' camp, 3,000 cattle,
S.000 sheep and 23 prisoners. Me-
thueu has made another big haul of

the eastern Transvaal are completely
"out of hand" nnd says they are
merely burghers, the forejgn mer
cenaries having gone to Lourenzo
Marques, owing to tho Portuguese
government promising to maintain
them while there and give them pas
sage to their respective countries.
FEVER IN HAVANA.
Every mother possesses information of vital value to her
young daughter. That daughter is a precious legacy, and
tho responsibility for her future is largely in the hands of the
mother. The mysterious change' that develops the thought
less girl into the thoughtful woman should find the mother
on tho watch day and night. As she cares for tho physical
well-being of her daughter, so will tho woman be, and her
children also.
"When tho young girl's thoughts become sluggish, when
sho experiences headaches, dizziness, faintness, and exhibits
an abnormal disposition to sleep, pains in tho back and lower
limbs, eyes dim, desiro for solitude, and a dislike for the
society of other girls, when she is a mystery to herself and
friends, then the mother should go to her aid promptly. At
such a time tho greatest aid to nature is Lydia. E. Fink
ham's Vegetable Compound. It prepares tho young
system for the coming change, and is tho surest reliance in
tins nour or trial.
Tho following letters from Miss Good are practical proof
of Mrs. Pinkham's efficient advice to young women.
Miss Good asks Mrs. Pinkham lor Help.

"Dr.AB Mns. Pinkham: I have been very much bothered for sorao
time with my monthly periods being irregular. I will tell you all about
it, and put myself in your care, for I have heard so much of you. Each
month menstruation would become less and less, until it entirely stopped
for six months, and now it lias stopped nguin. I have become very ner
vous and of a very bad color. I urn a young girl and have always had to
work very hard. I would bo very much pleased if
you would toll me what to do." Mi6S PnAitr. Good,

E. Pinlchara's Vegetable Compound enough. It is
just aimply wonderful the change your medicino
has made in me. I feel like another person. My
work is now a plensuro to me, while before using
your medicino it was a burden. To-day I am a

Washington, Sept.. 25. The surgeon
general's oillce of the war department
has no information regarding tho
epidemic of yellow fever in llavamt,
although it is known to exist there
to a terrible extent. Private advices
from Havana indicate that tho out
break is serious. The fever exists in
the best parts of the city and among
Americans who have gone there. It is
said at the war department that no
fears are entertained, of a serious out
break among the troops of the United
States as they are outside of the city
and not in infected districts. The
outbreak is not unexpected, as fever
usually develops about this time of tho
year and is even worse during tho
months of October and November
than in the spring.
