Your correspondent in an interview with Mr. John McMillan, who resides at St. John, Kan., elicited the following in formation concerning the wonderful cura tive properties contained in Lr. Williams' Piuk rills. Mr. McMillan said: "In the fall of lSi4, I, with another man, decided upon a hunting expedition iuto the Indian Territory. Accordingly we started south lute in the fall.- The wcaiher was damp and cold, and we were compelled to sleep ou the ground wirh nothing but a tent for protection. The exposure, coupled with the bad water, which in that country contains a great quantity of alkali and gypsum, caused me to contract a bad ca.se of kidney trouble and rheumatism. After remaining in the Territory for several months and contin uing to grow wore, I concluded the bent thing for me to do was to come home, which I proceeded to do. But after re turning 1 seemed to get no better, If any thing worse. "I tried several remedies without avail. My nights were spent in sleeplessness and misery, and I became convinced that 1 must have help immediately. Koine one told me the benefits they had derived from Dr. Williams' I'ink i'llls, and I de termined to give them a trial, which 1 did, and I can truthfully assert to you that their action was magical. From the first doHe I commenced improving and it was but a whort time until all iiaiii hud left me, and I felt entirely well. What is more, 1 have never had a recurrence of my trouble from the lime of my recov ery until the present time, I can cer tainly recommend Dr. Williams' I'ink I'ills as one of the best medicines on the market, if not the best." In conclunion Mr. McMillan Bikcd us if we intended making hi Htulcmeui puii lic, and upon our nllirmntive reply he re marked that he wan perfectly satisfied, SS he had oflcu contemplated doing o himself, as he considered it u duty he owed to suffering huinaiiily.

That the women are none the less devoted to the cause of their country has lieon frequently attested. An Illustration of this self-sacriticlng spirit Is related by S. T. Dickinson, of Milford, Va., who has Just returned from a ttojouni at Colon, Panama. While at that place Mr. Dickinson be came acquainted with a Cuban and his beautiful daughter. The old man, who waa one of the most wealthy of the residents of the Island, had been forced to leave his home by the Spaniards on account of his ardent sympathy for the Cuban cause. In this land In which he found refuge he waa forced to work for his living, but every cent he could spare promptly went back to Cuba to aid the cause. His (Laughter was strongly imbued with the same spirit and grieved that she had nothing to give. The chief beauty of the girl was a luxuriant head of auburn hair, for which many a woman would lie willing to give a fortune. The young lady decided to part with her hair if a purchaser could he found, ami to do nate the proceeds to the cause she held so dear. The beautiful locks wore shorn from her head and Mr. Dickinson became the purchaser for a good, round figure. Mr. Dickinson brought the suit of hair home with him, and It is now In Richmond to he sold. Aidinc the ' x position.

Agnlnst Hitch Hats, Sarah Bernhardt joins with the many who believe in the crusade against the high theater hat. She says: "France should Imitate the example of young America with a view of bringing about the total disappearance of the hat from the theaters. Often as monumental as they are Babylonian In shape they are a nuisance to the spectator behind, and I am sure that 1he gentlemen would re joice If In our country such measures were applied."

Charles Lamb once sai l that a carpen ter's hammer in a warm summer noon would fret him more than midsummer madness." New Spring Wraps Why Women Want the Ballot. A famous advocate was recently ask ed why she wanted to secure; the ballot for her sex. She replied by giving the following, which she declared to be six out of sixty good reasons: Because they are American citizens and the United States Constitution says: "The citizen's right to vote shall not lie denied or abridged on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude." Because every citizen in a free repub lic is entitled to Individual representa tion, nnd no person having but one vote can represent himself and another per son, even with the latter's consent. TRANS - MISSISSIPPI EXPOSITION. MBS. JKNNIE K. KETSON. ANNA. F0O8. Because they are taxpayers, nnd it is a principle of our government that tax ation and representation are insepara ble. Because every citizen should have a voice In the selection of those who make the laws which he or she must obey. Because a vote means power, and women need this power to protect the Interests of themselves, their homes, their children nnd society. Because politics, which means the government, needs the combined Influ ences of men and women. Without the ballot woman's Influence Is Indirect, negative ami irresponsible. Votes talk, votes count, votes compel respect, votes accomplish. FHiikh nt the Fair Hex. Kean Isn't your wife afraid to drive that horse? Ktean Not at all. It's the people she meets who are scared.

I was afraid to stay alone, for I sometimes had four and five fainting spells a day. I had several doctors and tried many pat ent medicines.
