Mrs. Ella Leo
An eminent physician fcays that
"Women are not truthful; they will lie
to their physician." This statement
ehould he qualified; women do tell the
truth, but not the whole truth, to a
male physician, but this Is only in re
gard to those painful and troublesome
disorders peculiar to their sex.
There can be no more terrible ordeal
to a delicate, sensitive, refined woman
than to be obliged to answer certain
questions when those questions are
asked, even by her family physician.
This is especially the case with un
married women.
Is it any wonder, then, that women
continue to suffer and that doctors
fail to cure female diseases when they
cannot jret the proper information to
work on 1
This is the reason why thousands and
thousands of women are now corre
sponding' with Mrs. I'jnkham. To her
they can and do give every symptom,
so that she really knows more about
the true condition of her patients,
through her correspondence with them
than the physician who personally
questions them.
If you su ffer from any form of trouble
peculiar to women, write at once to
Mrs. I'inkham, Lynn, Mass., and she
will advise you free of charge.
The fact that this great boon, which
Is extended freely to women by Mrs.
Piokham, is appreciated, the thou
sands of letters received by her prove.
Many sijch grateful letters as the fol
lowing are constantly pouring in.
Mm. Ella Lee, Frank ford, Ind.,write
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
" I want to thank you for what your medi
cine has done for me.
" Three years ago I had Inflammation of the)
ovaries and ulcers on my womb. I was under
the doctor's care for about three months, and
the only time I was not in pain was when
under the influence of morphine. The doctor
filially said I never would be bettor, and
would be an Invalid the rest of my life. I had
given up in despair, but one evening I came
across one of your advertisements and decided
to write you for advice. I did so and com
menced to take Lydia E. Pinkham 's Vege
table Compound. I began to improve at once,
and to-day I am a well woman, and I know
it is all due to your advice and medicine.
Mrs. J. II. Farmer of 2809 Elliott
Avenue, St. Louis, Mo., writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
" I cannot thank you enotigh for what your
advice and medicines have done for me.
They have done me mora good than all the
doctors I ever had.
" For the last eight yean I have suffered
with female troubles; was very weak; had
nervous prostration, and could not do my
work; but I am happy to say Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound has made a
different woman of me. I am in perfect
health and have gained in weight from 88
pounds to 122 pounds."
No ether medicine in the world has
received such widespread and unquali
fied endorsement. No other medicine
has such a record for actual cures of
female ills as has Lydia E. I'inkham'
Vegetable Compound.
Mrs. Pinkham invites all sick women
to write her for advice. She has
guided thousands to health. Address,

1316 FARNAM
WASHINGTON. April 21. Home of the
difficulties encountered by the American
minister at Constantinople In his efforts
to gain an audience with the sultan last
year to obtain settlement of American
claims are set forth in the following offlcl-il
paraphrase, made public at the State de
partment, of a cablegram received at the
time from Minister Irishman:
"Mr. Lelshman reports that In the ab
sence of any further communication from
the palace about the audience he attended
Selamanlk this morning, and that the
grand master of ceremonies informed him
that on account of important visits In
the harem his majesty could not receive
him today. In view of the fact that the
audience was demanded in the name of
the president, and that he has been twlca
put off, It seems to Mr. Leishman to be
beneath the dignity of the government of
the United States to have him go again
to the palace to seek an audience, unless
positive assurance be given In advance
that he will be received by the sultan. Re
quests further Instruction."
Exasperated by the dilatorlness of the
ports, Secretary Hay Informed Mr. Leish
man "that the American fleet will arrive
at Smyrna In a few .days and Instructs
him to use his best endeavors to obtain a
satisfactory answer from the Turkish gov
ernment before Its arrival, and if that
government should continue to refuse or
to neglect to grant the moderate and rea
sonable request of this government, to take
an Indefinite leave and depart from Tur
key In one of the United States naval
vessels, leaving the legation in charge of
the secretary of legation."
Correspondence made public at the State
department today shows that when Count
Cassini, the Russian ambassador at Wash
ington, some time ago transmitted the re
quest of Captain Berlinsky of the Lena,
that he be allowed to celebrate the name
day of his sovereign by hoisting the Rus
sian flag, dressing his ship and firing the
Imperial salute, Secretary Hay was un
able to grant permission to fire the salute,
as the Lena was disarmed. The secretary
readily approved the remainder of the pro

INDIAN SUPERINTENDENT FIRED
Official "Who Hired Too Many Clerks
Summarily Dismissed.
WASHINGTON, April 21. Fred H. Wil
son, acting superintendent, and seven
clerks of tho Indian warehouse In New
Tork City, were summarily dismissed from
office by Secretary Hitchcock as the result
of revelations made by an Inspection of
the office by Indian Inspector Nesler, who
preferred charges of Irregularities In the
conduct of the office. Including Wilson's
accounts, In order to protect a number of
employes who were not performing any
service for the government This Wilson
was able to do from the fact that he was
also disbursing agent for the warehouse.
There were fourteen persons on the pay
roll, while Inspector Nesler asserts that
four or five were all that were necessary,
of those on the roll It Is asserted that sev
eral were rendering no service whatever.
One of them was a barkeeper, who, it is
charged, seldom visited the office. Wilson
Is said to have taken a somewhat promi
nent part In local politics in New York
and claimed to have been connected with
the republican national committee. He is
said to have spent much of his time at Al
bany. Wilson's office pay Is J1.600 per an
num and has been held by him since the
removal of Superintendent Robbing some
years ago. 'The clerks dismissed were
among those whose services Inspector Nes
ler thought could be dispensed with with
out injury to the office. Wilson was given
an opportunity to make reply to the charges
but the secretary considered his explana
tion Insufficient to Justify his retention.
Special Indian Inspector McNlchols has
been placed temporarily In charge of the
office.

DISCI SS JAPANESE IN HAWAII
McGuire Says Islands Are Stepping
Stone to lotted States.
WASHINGTON, April 21. John McGuire,
a representative of the Trade and Labor
council of Honolulu, Hawaii, was In con
ference today with Secretary Morrison of
the American Federation of Labor, relative
to the Immigration of Japanese coolies to
the Hawaiian Islands. He told Mr. Mor
rison that the Japanese are coming in
large numbers and that as a rule aftor
remaining a short time they continue
their Journey to the United States. The
plan they pursue, according to Mr. Mc
Gulre's statement, is to have as many
come to this country from Hawaii as
land direct from Japan. By this means
they keep now the number in the islands
and also find opportunity to learn the
English language and to get a little money
ahead before reaching our shores. "They
are making a stepping stone of Hawaii,"
said Mr. McGuire. 'They are unable to
secure permits from their emperor to come
direct to the -United States, but they are
getting here Just the same. In Hawaii
they are in all kinds of business except
sugar planting and running others out."
Mr. Morrison assured his caller that the
Federation- Is taknng steps to check the
immigration of the Japanese. He says
that resolutions are being put through
most of the labor unions and that other
means which may promise to prove ef
fective will be resorted to. It Is Intended
to bring the matter before congress very
earnestly at the next session.

Some Plain Questions.
OMAHA, April 21. To the Editor of The
Bee: What actual benefit can accrue from
a minister of the gospel taking a stroll
through the burnt district of a city? Does
such a visit result in the bettorment of
the poor creatures who are the objects of
unholy curiosity; or does it add to the
dignity of one who is supposed to be an
example of all youth? Must one, In order
to warn others of the sinfulness of this
Vice, court a certain familiarity with it?
If this Is the case why will not the rule
hold good throughout? Why should not a
leader advise young men to go through
this district In order to know Its wick
edness and thereby avoid it? We would
rot desire such a leadership for the young,
but rather we would hold to the words
of one of old, "Let not thy feet incline to
her paths, . . . Pass not nigh her house."
A Christian should go to this part of the
city only when he answers some call of
an unfortunate one, or he should, like the
Salvation lassie, gq under the proclaimed
banner of Christ and in that case, there
will be no danger whatever of lils being
accosted by even the lowest inmate.
There seems to be a fascination for some

preachers who come from rural pastorates
that draws them to this part of the city,
not in their clerical capacity, but rather
on a tour of Inspection. In one instance
the party thought to partly disguise him
self by indulging in smoking, which would
not be expected of a minister of the gospel,
but in no case has actual good resulted
from these tours of investigation.
The ministers who have accomplished
real good by diverging Into this particular
field have gone, not In the garb of private
citizens, but under police protection and
with unmistakable evidence of their call
ing. Christ ate with publicans and sinners,
but when the woman taken in adultery
was brought before lllm. He cast down
His eyes and wrote in the sand, with
holding the glance that must rest upon her
shame. Curiosity would have scanned her
through and through. Curiosity is a trait
wholy at variance with Christianity, and
l no man having gone through the burnt
district merely to see It, Is in a position to
cast a slur upon any other man whom he
may have seen while, upon such a trip;
while only a great familiarity with the
district would enable him to designate a
certain class of business men as habitues
of such places. The Rev. Mr. Duteher
should elaborate upon his letter of ex
planation. A CHURCH MEMBER.

Of Interest to Oninlia Jotihers.
BILLINGS, Mont., April lS.-To the Edi
tor of The Bee: A condition In this portion
that should Interest the wholesale and
manufacturing interests of Omaha is the
visit here of the Chicago Commercial club,
of whom a large delegation piuisud through
yesterday, making a stop here of twenty
four hours, during which they canvassed
the city and Its resources, and In the even
ing wire entertained at a banquet. There
Is a deep plan underlying thlr tour, par
ticularly as regards Montana,-and It is by
no means a Junket. To make the story
brief. It is understood here that the Chi
cago men are particularly Interested In
getting Into this field early, so that when
the bltt rush takes place they will be firmly
entrenched and get a grip on the future
business. The tenor of the speeches and
private conversations Indicated that it l
their Intention to maintain warehouses and
pales aKents here, using this as a distribut
ing point. Several packing houses are al
ready following t hits pulley and they have
demonstrated that It is prolital.le. Other
lines of trade are expected to follow suit.
The whole proposition rests, of course, upon
the cheapening of freight rates by ship
ping here in carload lots. I write to you
lieeau.-f (iin.'iha Is the logical Jobbing point
for the Hill llntftoii territory ami this place
Is the terminal ir the llurlington ami has
the railroad oullt t. making it a natural
distributing point lor this Bection.
The recent completion of the big Irriga
tion canal here will bring thousands of
settlers here this summer and the opening
of the Crow restitution will bring thou
sands more. The town Is growing at a
rapid pace and Is destined to become a big
rlace for this country. I write to you be
cause I know that The Rce can wake up
the commercial organizations of Omaha to
the situation and because I am Interested
in seeing Omaha get there In this territory.
In case you will do so, put my name on
your correspondents' list. Hoping that tho
suggestion may result In a visit by tho
Omaha Commercial club, I remain,

Grocers' Right to Sell Drugs.
OMAHA. April 21. To the Editor of The
Bee: I note in today's paper that a num
ber of grocers were arrested in South
Omaha for selling domestic drugs, such as
castor oil, patent medicines, etc. They
made, a mistake in pleading guilty, for the
reason that they have a double right to
handle the same.
First, there, Is no special skill required
In the sale of these articles, domestic
drugs, nonpoisons, patent medicines, etc.,
and In the state of Illinois where they
have tho most stringent pharmacy laws
in the United States and a fund to draw
for prosecutions, the supreme court In a
case that was carried up, decided that they
I could go ahead and handle the same, as
no special skill was required to sell tho
same, and any attorney in Omaha who has
court records will cite this decision to a
grocer who may call on him.
Then each bottle of patent medicine man
ufactured or domestic drugs nonjiolsonous1
out of the state and purchased outside of
the state constitutes an 'original package"
and the state laws will uphold the same.
Grocers who pay fines are out Just so
much; when they get around to my store
they will neither get me to pay a fine nor
to agree to the discontinuance of handling
the goods. If the pharmacy commission
wants something to do It will llnd plenty of
stores in Omaha run without registered
pharmacists half of the time and some
of them all the time. If they get me o
tho "carpet" I will soon show them wher
they have been swallowing a camel au4
straining ut a gnat.
