ineiidations In the Interest of the health an
comfort of the American troops In Cuba an
Porto Illro have been made by Inspectc
Ocnernl Hrecklnrldge , who has Just roturnc
from an Inspection trip In those Island ;
While nil the American troops In Port

Hrccldnrldgo discovered that many of th
men In Cuba were In tents , though the Wn
department since his report reached it hn
been making strong efforts to get nil th
troops Into barracks before the rainy seasoi
The great fault found by General Hrcckln
ridge was In the matter of clothing. Tli
Khaki uniforms with which most of the me
were supplied have turned all shades < :
color from white to a dirty brown and nr
not satisfactorily serving their purpose. H
has brought to the attention of the dupart
inont a blue-striped linen uniform used b
the Spaniards.
General Urecklnrldgo knew when ho lei
Washington that the War department did no
wish him to continue the beef Investigation
but while visiting n reconcentrado depot Ii
Havana he tletocted the odor of foul mea
and called the attention of the commissar
ofllcer to It. Hefore the general left Hnvan.

"STOP THIEF ! "
It is nn old trick ninptig tlie light-
fingered fraternity to divert nttention
from themselves by raising the cry of
" stop thief" and so putting the ptfblic
on n false scent.
There is n certnin kind of advertiser
who is expert in .similar methods. One
of his tricks is to tell women that it's
"revolting" to write to n man in con
sultation about disease. " Women
should write to a vyomnn. " _ The remain
der of the ndvcrtisement invites women
ly write for ndvice , and is caicfnlly
worded to convey the idea that the nd-
vice offered is that of a physician. Hut
n close examination shows that there is
no physician's advice offered and the
whole clamor of "write to n woman"
is raised to divert attention from the fact
that the woman offering advice is not a
doctor , and therefore not competent to
give medical advice :
For the adVice of an unqualified
woman is Just as dangerous as the
advice of an unqualified man.
Women who are sick can obtain medi
cal ad vice free by letter , by consulting Dr.
U V. Pierce , chief consulting physician
of the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical In
stitute. Duffalo. N. V. As an expert in
the treatment and cure of female dis
eases Dr. Pierce takes the highest rank.
In over thirty years' experience he has
treated half-a-tiiilllon women and of that
great number ninety-eight per cent , have
been perfectly auu permanently cured
Each letter is held as private ami its con
tents guarded as a sacred confidence.
Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription makes Weak
Women Strong and Sick
Women Well.
