We have in our files many grateful
letters from women who have suffered
with the symptoms named above. Lack
of space prevents our giving more than
one testimonial here.
It is Impossible to even approximate
the great amount of suffering which Pe-

and strength by its faithful use.

THE BERNHARDT FIGURE
Made From Two Yards of 8ashing and
Hides the Waist
Mme. Bernhardt has created a new
figure. It is made from two yards of
sashing. Any woman who chooses
can have a Bernhardt shape. Bring
tho sash around the hips and tie !n a
fetching bow in front about twelve
inches below the waist line. This
naturally brings up the question as co
where a woman’s waist line Is. Don’t
ask us. We don’t know. How can
we be expected to know, when woman
herself doesn’t know. Woman’s waist
line Is subject to sudden and violent
changes—it rises and falls like the
mercury in response to the dictates of
fashion. Fashionably gowned women
do not try to keep track of their waist
lines. If they have any curiosity to
know where their waist lines are they
ask their tailors. Out this Bernhardt
sasii effect is the treshest thing out,
never mind how it looks. We*ll tell
you how it looks—it looks as if the
woman who wears the sash has tried
to jump through the loop and stuck.—

The Expenditure of "Loyal Seminole”
Fund is Not Satisfactory to Sena-
tors—Effort to Have the Bill Sent
B3Ck to Congress
WASHINGTON: The president has
been asked not to sign the bill for
settlement of the affairs of the five
civilised tribes, which recently passed
the house and senate, until an in-
vestigation can be made into the ex-
penditure of $18G,000 belonging to the
“loyal Seminoles” by A. J. Brown,
the administrator of the fund, and
into the manner of his appointment.
Senators Spooner, Allison, Bailey
and Tillman are believed to be behind
the movement to have the president
send the bill back to congress. The
offensive clause in the bill is the one
which approves the settlement made
by Brown, and which dismisses the
affair from further discussion. It was
ofTered as an amendment in the sen-
ate by Senator Teller, and was vigor-
ously opposed by Senator Tillman, but
finally adopted by a good majority.
The clause has been attacked by the
secretary of the Interior in a letter
sent to the senate committee on In-
dian affairs.
In 1900 congress appropriated $180,-
000 in full settlement of the accounts
of the "loyal Seminoles” for losses
sustained by them during the civil
war. Secretary Hitchcock, under this
act, appointed J. R. Jenkins to make
up the rolls and to disburse the
money, under an adequate bond.
Jenkins entered upon his duties and
satisfied the claims of the adult Sem-
inoles only.
Woen the heirs was reached it was
decided to turfi the matter over to
J. A. Brown, former governor, and
treasurer of the Seminole nation.
Brown was appointed administrator to
disburse the remaining moneys to the
heirs entitled to receive at the hands
of the Seminole nation. The appoint-
ment was made In chambers instead
of an open court, and he was required
to give a bond of $300,000.
According to Secretary Hitchcock’s
letter to the Indian committee, it is
said that the fund was disbursed as
follows: $40,000 In cash, $29,000
paid to ex-Governor Crawford, of Kan-
sas, In attorney fees, and $93,000 re-
tained by Brown, in alleged payment
of store accounts which he personally
held against the Indians.
These figures in round numbers, and
about $20,000 remains unpaid. Ac-
cordingly the Indians have so far re-
ceived only $40,000 of the $186,000
appropriated, and that is the gist of
the matter. Secretary Hitchcock has
appointed an attorney to look Into the
legality of Brown’s action in paying
himself $893,000 for store accounts,
and It Is expected that the president
will also take a hand in the deal.
President Says "Beef
Were Extremely Farcical
WASHINGTON: In a special mes-
sage. delivered to congress, President
Rosevelt declares that the result of
the recent trial of the “Beef packers
In Chicago was a “miscarriage of jus-
tice,” and that the Interpretation
placed by Judge Humphrey on the will
of congress, “is such as to make that
will absolutely abortive.”
The message, which Is most sensa-
tional In character, is based largely
on a letter to the president from At-
torney General Moody, in which the
attorney general reviews the proceed-
ings of the case of the government
against the beef packers.
The president says it is clear that no
criticism attaches to Commissioner
Garfield. He refers sharply however,
to the decision of Judge Humphrey,
saying that congress could not have
foreseen such a decision and that he
can hardly believe that the ruling of
Judge Humphrey will he followed by
other judges. He declared that such
interpretation of the law as that
placed on it by Judge Humphrey
“comes measurably near making the
law a farce,” and recommends that
congress pass a declaratory act stating
its real intention. The president also
requests congress to confer upon the
government by statute, the same right
of appeal, in criminal cases, which
the defendant now enjoys, where the
merits of the case have not been de-
termined.
In the letter of the attorney general
referred to by the president, Mr.
Moody reviews rather exhaustively the
proceedings of the government against
the beef packers. The attorney gen-
eral says:
“In the opening statements made to
the jury it was said that at this time
Mr. Garfield promised the defendants
immunity from prosecution, but there
was no evidence to sustain this state-
ment and during argument any such
claim was expressly disaffirmed by
Mr. Miller, the leading counsel for the
defendants.”
As to the information obtained by
Mr. Garfield, Mr. Moody says:
“It may be said here that not a
scrap of evidence obtained by Mr. Gar-
field, directly or indirectly, from tho
packers, was used before the grand
jury to obtain the indictments.”
In conclusion the attorney general
suggests to the president the desirabil-
ity of recommending to congress the
enactment of the laws the president
proposed in his message.
WORKING WOMEN
Their Hard Struggle Made Easier-Interesting State-
ments by a Young Lady In Boston
and One in NashvilleaTenn.
All women work; some in their
Vunrfi, some in church, and some in
the whirl of society. And In stores,
mills and shops tens of thousands are
on the never-ceasing treadmill, earning
their daily bread.
All are subject to the same physical
ffer alike from the same
laws; all suffer alike from tl
physical disturbance, and the nature of
their duties, in many cases, quickly
drifts them into the horrors of all
kinds of female complaints, tumbrs,

Bolts Taken From Rail of M
Near Adair
ADAIR: An attempt was made last
week to wreck the fast mall on the
Missouri, Kansas & Texas railroad at
a point two miles north of town by
taking the holts from the fish plates
connecting the rails. At one place
every bolt had been removed. Had
this been done two miles further north,
where there Is a sharp curve In the
road, nothing could have saved the
fast mail from being wrecked. This 1b
the third time holts have been re-
moved from the Mtssourl, Kansas ft
Texas tracks in this vicinity, and the
officials believe that a gang of wreck-
ed Is ut work along the line.
Deteotives are now working on the
case. Tho penalty under the Arkan-
sas statute for such offenses Is twenty-
one years' Imprisonment. The fast

MINERS ARE VICTORIOUS
in South-
Two of the Largest Mines
west Closed Down
WILBURTON: The latest develop-
ments in the coal strike at this place
are signal victories for the Miners’
union in two of the largest camps in
the southwest. Here at Wilburton
for the first time Degnan and McCon-
nell, the second largest operators in
Indian Territory, saw their mines
closed down, fires drawn from the
furnaces and the entire force of
former loyal miners heed the com-
mand of their district president, Pete
Hanraty. After two weeks’ suspension
the Degnan mines were opened and
miners facing starvation returned to
work, after being told there was no
relief fund. This open violation at-
tracted the union leaders and they ap-
peared with money and promises of
future assistance. Their action was
effective. James Degnan, president
of the company has conceded his de-
feat and declared he will make no
further effort to re-open his mines.
He said he would serve notice on the
strikers to vacate his houses, and
later he may import non-union
laborers. At Buck, the McAlester
Coal Mining company had a similar
experience, five day notices were
posted ordering the miners to leave
the premises. Armed guards patrol
the camp. There is no evidence of
disorder at either Buck or Wilburton.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured
bjr local application,, a, they cannot reach the dts*
eased portion of the car. There Is only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an Inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is Inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im-
perfect hearing, and when it Is entirely closed, Deaf-
ness is the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal condi-
tion, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which Is nothing
but an Inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

Little Girl’s Obstinate Case of Eczema
—Mother Says: “Cuticura Reme-
dies a Household Standby.”
“Last year, after having my little
girl treated by a very prominent
physician, for an obstinate case of
eczema, I resorted to the Cuticura
Remedies, and was so well pleased
with the almost Instantaneous relief
afforded that we discarded the physi-
cian’s prescription and relied entirely
on the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint-
ment, and Cuticura Pills. When we
commenced with the'Cuticura Reme-
dies her feet and limbs were cover-
ed with running sores. In about six
weeks we had her completely well,
and there has been no recurrence of
the trouble. We find that the Cuti-
cura Remedies are a valuable house-
hold standby, living as we do, twelve
miles from a doctor, and where it
costs from twenty to twenty-five dol-
lars to come up on the mountain.
