Mrs. F. Wright, of Oelwein, Iowa^' is another one of the million women who have been1 restored to health by 1 Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Overshadowing indeed is the success of Lydia E. Plnkham’s Vege table Compound — compared with it, all other medicines for women are experiments. * Why has it the greatest record for absolute cures of any female medicine i in the world ? Why has it lived and thrived and done Us glorious work I among women for a quarter of a century? Simply because of its sterling worth. The reason that no other medicine lias ever reached its success is be- . cause there is no other medicine so successful in curing woman’s ills. Re member these important facts when a druggist tries to sell you something which ho says is just as good. A Yopng New York Lady Tells of a Wonderful Cure: — ijkar amis. riNKHAM. —Aly trouble was with the ovaries; I am tall, and the doctor said I grew too fast for my strength. I suffered dreadfully from inflammation and doctored continually, but got no help. I suf fered from terrible dragging sensations with he most awful pains low down in the side and >ains in 1 he back, and the most agonizing head u-hes. No one knows what I endured. Often ! was sick to the stomach, and every little vhile I would lie too sick to go to work for three or four days; I work in a large store. ^ and I suppose standing on my feet all : day made me worse. “ At the suctrestion of a friend of mv 1 i mother’s I began to take Lydia E. Pinkham’s t Vegetable Compound, and it is simply wonderful, i I felt better after the first two or three doses; it seemed as though a weight was taken off my shoulders; I continued its use until now I 1 can truthfully say I am entirely cured. Young girls who are always 1 paying doctor’s hills without getting any help as I did, ought to take < your medicine. It costs so much less, and it is sure to euro them.— > Yours truly, Adelaide Praiil, 174 St. Ann’s Avo., New York City.” t Women should not fall to profit by Miss Adelaide Prahl’s 1 experiences; just as surely as she was cured of the troubles enu- i nierated In her letter, just so certainly will Lydia E. Pinkham’s i Vegetable Compound cure others who suffer from womb trou- , hies, inflammation of the ovaries, kidney troubles, nervous exci tability, and nervous prostration; remember that it is Lydia E. t Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound that is curing women, and don’t .. allow any druggist to sell you anything else in its place.

FALSE RECORDS_WERE READY Vouchers and Other Papers Prepared to Mislead Official Inspectors—Fur niture and Cash Wrongly Asked. WASHINGTON—The mil text of the formal charges of irregularities in the administration of postal affairs preferred by Seymour W. Tulloch, for merly cashier of the Washington city postofllce, was made public Sunday by Mr. Tuuloch. The charges are em bodied in a letter to Postmaster Gen eral Payne in response to the latter’s request. Some of the matters com plained of will be investigated imme diately by the inspectors. Mr. Tulloch says he is at the serv ice of the postmaster general in ren dering any further assistance that may be desired. In all instances of irreg ularity and favoritism he says the proper allowances, records and vouch ers were executed and kept, so but little information can be ascertained by investigation; as the real facts be hind the allowances and vouchers are not on record and are known to few and therefore, being interested, can not talk. "For upwards of nineteen years,” the letter reads, "the conduct of af fairs betweeen the Washington city postofllce and the postofllce depart ment was regular; then came the first break, the precursor of a system of allowances to the Washington postof fice on account of the departmental expedltures which afterwards led to irregularities, abuses, extravagances and my removal as an obstacles on June 30, 1899. “Mr. Shephard, then chief of the salary and allowance division of the postofllce department, desired a file case for the use of his office. His re quisitions were turned down by his su perior officer. Later vouchers were presented to me for a file case, accom panied by an allowance for its pay ment out of the funds of the Wash ington office made by. Mr. Shepard and signed by the first r.ssistant postmas ter general. I directed the contractor to obtuin a certificate of delivery. Mr. Shephard refused to acknowledge re ceipts, fearing exposure during the au dit of the vouchers, and 1 refused to pay for the case until some on was willing to father the name. “Soon after the McKinley adminis tration came into power the first as sistant postmaster general sent his clerk down to me with a voucher for a lump sum for traveling expenses ac companied by an allowance for their payment from the funds of the Wash ington office. Such a demand was ir regular on its face, but the official be came very angry at the idea of a mere cashier attempting to mank any sug gestions to him and refused to amend and itemize his voucher. The post master explained to him that I had only a schedule for what was required by the auditor and according to prece dent. “The postmaster upon his return said the official had said: ‘Look here now, this is a new administration and a new crowd, and we intend to make our own precedents.’ ” Snow Sweeps Over Montana. BUTTS, Mont.—A general snow storm Is sweeping over Montana. In the eastern'sections of the state the snow is wet and unless the tempera ture should fall will benefit crops and range. In the north, however, a blizzard has been raging since 7 o’clock Sunday morning, and the Great Northern is experiencing considerable difficulty in running trains. Stock is suffering greatly and considerable loss among the sheep Is threatened. SYBIL SANDERSON IS DEAD. Pneumonia Brings Sudden Death to American Opera Singer. PARIS.—Sybil Sanderson, the well known American opera singer, died suddenly Saturday of pneumonia re sulting from an attack of the grip. The announcement of the death of the famous singer caused a profound shock in the American colonoy here, where she was well known, and throughout musical and theatrical cir cles. She returned to Paris from Nice six weeks ago, suffering from a slight attack of the grip. Her condition was not regarded as serious but she grad ually grew worse and her illness final ly developed into pneumonia. PETITION FOR RHEA’S LIFE. Father Hopes to Prevail on Governor to Commute Death Sentence. RICHMOND, Ind.—A strog move ment is on foot to save the life of Wm. Rhea, a young man of good fam ily, of Posey county, Indiana, who is under sentence of death in Nebraska for murder. Rhea’s father is a man of means and wide influence and has enlisted the services of many prominent men on his son’s behalf who have united in a petition to the governor of Nebras ka asking him to commute the sen tence to life imprisonment. The pres sure is so strong that the governor has granted a reprieve until July. The crime for which Rhea was convicted was the murder of a saloonist in a small town in Dodge county, Neb. To Test Anti-Trust Law. WASHINGTON, D. C.—Two cases intended to test the validity of the Texas anti-trust law were docketed in the United States supreme court. The cases are those of the state of Texas vs. the National Cottonseed Oil com pany and the Southern,Cottonseed Ooll company, both New Jersey companies. The two companies were consolidated and the consolidation acquired other oil factories, the combination result ing in the formation of a trust, as al leged by the state and not denied by the companies. It is stated that one result of the combination was the fix ing of the price of cottonseed at $17 i ton. The combination was pronounc ed illegal by the Texas courts and the oil companies bring the cases to the supreme court on writ of error, alleg ing that the Texas anti trust laws are in contravention of both the federal and the state const.tutions. General Miles Not Invited. WASHINGTON, D. C.—Secretary Root gave a dinner at the Country club in honor of the members of the newly organized members of the gen eral staff of the army. Those invited included Assistant Secretary- Sanger, Lieutenant General John M. Schofield (retired), Major General S. B. M. lioung, Major General Henry C. Cor bin and a large number of army offi cers now in the city. General Miles was not present. Divorce Law Unconstitutional. SAN JOSE, Cal.—Superior Judge Rhodes Friday declared the new state divorce law unconstitutional. The new law, in his opinion, is special leg islation and in direct conflict with the general law which provides that the divorce decree must be prepared and juagment entered immediately # _ One of Ames' Appointees Convicted. MINNEAPOLIS, Minn.—William H. Johnson, superintendent of the poor farm during the Ames administration, was found guilty by a jury of the misappropriation of $130 of city funds. Sentence will be passed Wednesday and the case will then be appealed. The maximum sentence is five years in the penitentiary. Johnson had re ceived his appointment from Mayor Ames and later went on the' bond of the former mayor. PRAISESJROOPS WHAT GENERAL MILES SAYS OF PHILIPPINE ATROCITIES. FAULT OF A~FEW OFFICERS The General Lauds Refusal to Carry Out Brutal Orders and Requests Are Mailed Home for Action that Would Stop Cruelty. NEW YORK.—The Army and Navy Journal will print a letter from Gen eral Miles in which he says he went to the Philippines in an official ca pacity and that his instructions came from the president, who directed him to give special attention to the in struction, discipline and supplies of the army. Coming to the subject of cruelties in the Philippines, General Miles’ letter reads: “It is idle to assume that campaign ing in the Philippines has conditions that warrant resort to medieval cruelty and a departure from an hon orable method of conducting warfare, and that sucdi depredations should be overlooked and condoned. “It is most gratifying that the seri ous offenses have not been committed by the soldiers unless under the direct orders of certain officers who were re sponsible. Soldiers have withheld fire when ordered to shoot prisoners, protested against acts of cruelty and written to relatives at home urging them to take action to put a stop to these crimes. It will ever be one of the glories of the army that such deeds, committed by whatever author ity, are abhorrent to the American sol dier. “The officers who are responsible do not by any means constitute the Amer ican army and there must be an un mistakable line drawn between the great body of soldiers, whose records have been commendable, and those of whatever station, whose acts have re ceived and should receive the stern est condemnation of all honorable men.. GHASTLY FIND OF FISHERMEN. Mutilated Body of a Man Found in a Box ir. River. WARSAW’, lnd.—While fishing in the Tippecanoe river Saturday Clyde Kyle and Frank Miller found the mu tilated and partly naked body of a man. The trunk and legs, clothed, were in a wooden box, from which part of the cover had been washed away. The head and arms, naked, were found in the water near the box. The box and the body were in shal low water, near the shore, at a se cluded place along the river north of Warsaw. No one thus far has been able to identify the body, which is fairly well preserved. No one bas'been reporated missing from Warsaw and the police and coroner, who are working on the case, are inclined to think that the body was shipped to Warsaw from some city and hastily placed in th< river. Senator Tells of Boodle Deals. ST. LOUIS, Mo.—Former State Sen ator Charles Scnweickardt of St. Louis, who made a complete confes sion to Circuit Attorney Folk of his connection with boodle deals in the Fortieth general assembly, was before the grand jury. While in the jury room he was confronted by ex-Senator Fred Busche of St. Louis. After be ing examined at length Schweickardt emerged with flushed face. To Adopt Gold Standard. WASHINGTON, D. C.—Nicaragua is contemplating a change from the sil ver to the gold standard. It is ex pected the change will have to be gradual. Mr. Corea, the Nicaraguan minister at Washington, has submit ted to his government a report on the financial system of the United States with a view or its introduc tion in Nicaragua. He will soon go to Europe to continue his studies of financial matters. Pershing Will Return Home. MANILA.—Captain Pershing has b^n LSfiao expedition and will be succeed ed by Lieutenant Colonel Rogers of the Fifteenth cavalry. Captain Persh ing, who is ill, has been ordered to Zamboangaga for medical examination and will probably be sent home. Sweden's Sum for St. Louis. STOCKHOLM. Sweden.—The Risks dag passed the bill granting ¥32,000 for the expenses of participation in the St. Louis exposition. Mad Driver Wrecks Train.

Ibsen is Again in Danger. COPENHAGEN.—Henrik Ibsen, the | Norwegian dramatist, is again serious- l ly ill. His friends are very anxious i regarding the outcome of his illness. 1 Mr. B. J. Scanneli, 509 Ware block, i Omaha, Neb., has just received an- * other consignment, of that “Eczema” cure which so quickly cured the W'ell known Hon. W. A. Paxton of Omaha, and who was so badly afflicted at one time that he was compelled to make a trip to Carlsbad and several other celebrated places in Europe, but re ceived no help whatever until he se cured the above mentioned ointment. Mr. Scanneli is offering it at $2.50 per box and anyone who knows Mr. Pax ton is at liberty to write him for in formation. - £ GREATLY REDUCED RATES vlu WABASH RAILROAD, Corinth, Miss., and return.

No Respector of Persons. The Italian railway officials are no respecters of persons is shown by an incident which occurred the other day, when the Duchess of Manchester ar rived at Salsomaggiore. Her grace had so much baggage that the railway officials became tired of W'atching the endless stream of trunks pouring from the baggage car. Two porters from the hotel whither the duchess was go ing had got into the car to help in un loading the trunks, but before they could get out the impatient officials started the train and they were car ried off to Parma, with-a condiderable portion of the duchess’ baggage. Struck Against an Egg Menu. The servants at Harbor Hills, the country residence on Long Island of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence H. Mackay, have gone on strike against a menu consist ing of eggs three times a day. Ac cording to the complaining domestics it was omelettes, egg sandwiches, boiled eggs, roasted eggs, stuffed eggs or some other variety of the same dish in Lent and out of Lent, until finally the chef was petitioned to change the menu. The man who presented the memorial was discharged on the spot, and then all the other servants but two went on strike. BE INDEPENDENT. It’a Easy to Shake Off the Coffee Habit. There are many people who make the humiliating acknowledgment that they are dependent upon Coffee to “brace them up” every little while. These have never learned the truth about Postum Cereal Coffee which makes leaving oft coffee a simple matter and brings health and strength in place of coffee ills. A lady of Davenport, Iowa, who used Postum Food Coffee for five years is competent to talk upon the subject. She says: “I am a school teacher and during extra work when I thought I needed to be braced up I used to indulge in rich, strong coffee of which I was very fond and upon which I thought I was dependent. “I began to have serious heart pal pitation and at times had sharp pains around the heart and more or less stomach trouble. I read about Postum and got some to try. I drop ped coffee, took up the Postum and It worked su '1 wonders for me that many of my friends took it up. “In a short time I was well again, even able to attend evening socials. And I did not miss my coffee at all. Now I can truthfully say that I have been repaid fully for the change I made. I have no indications of heart disease and not once in the past four years have I had a sick headache or bilious spell. "My father, 78 years old, is a Pos tum enthusiast, and feels that his good health in a large measure is due to thd G cups of good Postum which he enjoys each day.” Name furnished by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. ..'here is a reason.
