ROOSEVELT COES
TO OYSTER BAY
CONDITION BETTER AND IS
WAY TO RECOVERY
ON
GREAT CARE ORDERED
Bulletins Are Reassuring and Every
Precaution Being Taken to Insure
Safe Journey for Patient
To His Home
Chicago—The advisability of per-
mitting Colonel Roosevelt to depart
Monday morning for Oyster Bay was
■debated at length Sunday and not un-
til after his physicans had held a con-
sultation lat6 in the evening did they
decide definitely that he might do so.
He will leave for New York at 8:08
a. m. Monday. Although Colonel
Roosevelt’s condition was describd as
normal throughout the day it was
learned that his wound had bled con-
siderably and that he was suffering
from nervous exhaustion.
The ex-president's physicians in-
sisted that both of these developments
were to be expected and that there was
in them no cause for alarm. The
bleeding, it was explained by Dr. Alex-
ander Lambert, necessarily accom-
panied the discharge of serum, which
is part of the healing process. Dr.
Lambert also said that any patient
who had been in bed for a week would
suffer from nervous exhaustion and
that Colonel Roosevelt needed only to
have absolute rest,
“I wish you would emphasize the
faot,” said Dr. Lambert, “that Colonel
Roosevelt is getting on well, but that
any patient who has been in bed as
long as he will suffer from some degree
of nervous exhaustion. If Colonel
Roosevelt is kept perfectly quiet, it
will be safe for him to take the trip.”
The position of the bullet which so
nearly cost Colonel Roosevelt his life
was fixed with precision Sunday. An-
other X-ray photograph, the third, was
taken and from this it was learned
that the bullet lay on the outside ol
the broken rib. Until this photograph
was taken the physicians had been un-
able to state positively whether it was
on the outside or the inside of the rib.
WOMAN SICK
TWELVE YEARS
Wants Other Women to Know
How She Was Finally
Restored to Health.
HIS MIND UP IN THE CLOUDS
Louisiana, Mo.: —“I think a woman
naturally dislikes to make her troubles
known to the public,
but complete restor-
ation tohealtb means
so much to me that
I cannot keep from
telling mine for the
sake of other suffer-
ing women.
“I had been sick
about twelve years,
and had eleven doc-
tors. I had drag-
ging down pains,
pains at monthly periods, bilious spells,
and was getting worse all the time. I
would hardly get over one spell when I
would be sick again. No tongue can tell
what I Buffered from cramps, and at
times I could hardly walk. The doctors
said I might die at one of those times,
but I took Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegeta-
ble Compound and got better right away.
Your valuable medicine is worth more
than mountains of gold to suffering wo-
men.”—Mrs. Bertha Muff, 503 N. 4th
Street, Louisiana, Mo.
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com-
pound, made from native roots and herbs,
contains no narcotic or harmful drugs,
and to-day holds the record of being the
most successful remedy for female ills we
know of, and thousands of voluntary
testimonials on file in the Pinkham
laboratory at Lynn,Mass., seem to prove
this fact.
If you want special advice write to
Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co. (confi-
dential) Lynn, Mass. Your letter will
be opened, rend and answered by a
woman and held in strict confidence.
Professor Imagined Appeal Was From
F!do. and the Situation Became
Embarrassing.
A great lover of animals. Professor
Dryasdust was much given to having
his pet dog sitting beside him at meal
times eating tidbits from hla own lit-
the plate.
The other evening he was at a dinner
party, and his partner was a very
great lady, who was proud of her
tRJe.
But the professor paid absolutely no
attention to her. His mind had
switched off on to some abstruse point
and he was lost to the world over the
problem.
The duchess did not approve of this,
and presently, to attract his attention,
she pulled him gently by the sleeve.
Then the professor woke up. Grab-
blng a half-picked chicken bone from
his plate, he thrust It under her
startled nose.
“Don’t bother just now, Fidol” he
said curtly. “Here, take this and go
and eat It on the mat, like a good dog-
giel"
EXCEPTIONAL LUCK.
GOV. JOHNSON TO FILL
COL. ROOSEVELT’S DATE.

over the Pennsylvania lines for New
York, where he will complete arrange-
ments to fill Colonel Roosevelt’s
speaking dates in the east during the
remainder of the Campaign and direct
the fight. The complete itinerary has

York City and state, and hold several
meetings in New England. He
expected to spend at least one day in
Maine and another in Massachusetts.
He will travel by special train. The

Open Air Schools Grow In Favor.
With the opening of the fall school
term over 200 open-air schools and
fresh-air classes for tuberculous, and
anaemic children, and also for all chil-
dren In certain rooms and grades, will
be In operation In various parts of the
United States, according to the Nation-
al Association for the Study and Pre-
vention of Tuberculosis. All of these
schools have been established since
January, 1907, when the first Institu-
tion of this character was opened In
Providence, R. I. On January 1st,
1910, there were only 13 open-a*
schools In this country and a year lat-
er the number had Increased only to
29. Thus, the real growth In this
movement has been within the last
two years. Massachusetts now leads
the states with 86 fresh-air schools
and classes for tuberculous, anaemic
and other school children, Boston
alone having over 80. New York comes
next with 29, and Ohio Is third with 21.
Open-air schools have now been estab-
lished in nearly 50 cities In 19 differ-
ent states.
Liquor Case Convictions
Muskogee, Okla.—The first peniten-
tiary sentences for introducing liquor
into eastern Oklahoma since the re-
cent decision of the United States su-
preme court in the Webb cases were
meted out when Judge Ralph E. Camp-
bell of the United States court sen-
tenced Charles Quinn of Marietta,
John Archard of Madill and Henry
Smith of Ardmore to a year and a day
each in the federal prison at Leaven-
worth, Kan. These were the first con-
victions and sentences passed for “in-
troducing" liquor since prior to 1907,
when this part of the state was known
as Indian Territory.
Galveston to Build New Jail
Galveston, Tex.—Galveston county
has let the contract for a new county
jail, the present structure to be razed.
M. C. Bowden of Galveston and Van
Dorn ron Works company of Cleve-
land, Ohio, in a joint bid got the con-
tract, their price being $55,332, com-
plete.
On 10,000-Mile Walk
Coleman, Tex.—M. L. McGraw, who
left Savannah, Oa., on March 2, 1912,
on a 10,000-mile walking trip, on which
he averages fifteen miles a day, ar-
rived in Coleman, Tex., Monday. He
has walked over 4,000 miles, making
an average of about twenty-five miles
a day, and when he reahed here he
seemed to be none the worse for his
jaunt.
Horses Kill Aged Man
Guthrie, Okla.—A. N. Smith, aged
67 years, a Civil war veteran, was
found dead, evidently having been
kicked and dragged by a team of
horses. He was a native of Polk
county, Mo., and served in the Union
army in Company A, Sixteenth Mis-
souri cavalry.
SOMETHING AKIN TO GENIUS
Young Man With Financial Ability
So Well Developed Should Make
Mark In World.
“Do you think there i8 any such
thing as financial genius?”
“I am sure there Is. I know a young
man who has It in a marked degree.
After he had persuaded a beautiful
daughter of one of our most prominent
jewelers to become hls wife he went
aneund and induced the old man to let
him have an engagement ring at the
cost price.”
“I don’t see any Indication of re-
markable financial genius about that.”
“Walt. When he and the girl broke
their engagement he took the ring
back to her dad and got him to pay
eight per cent, interest on the money
that had been invested.”

Liquid Measure.
It was the time of the singing les-
son at the local council school, and
the teacher was explaining to the
young hopefuls that if a “treble,” and
“alto,” a “tenor’ and a “bass” sung to-
gether, their united efforts would con-
stitute a quartet.
There seemed no trouble about that,
and the teacher thought the class was
getting on very nicely.
“Now, Jimmy, leave off pinching
your brother’s leg and listen to me,”
said she. “If a bass and tenor sang
together, what would you call that?”
Jimmy was the son of the local
milkman, and a bright lad withal. Hls
answer was not long In coming.
“Please, miss,” said he, “that would
be a ‘plntette.’"

ITCHING, BURNING ECZEMA
817 S. Wolfe 8L, Baltimore, Md.—
"My trouble was caused by a severe
sprained ankle; the bruised blood not
having been drawn off caused a skin
affection which the doctors pro-
nounced eczema. It first started with
an itching and burning, with very dry
skin Constant scratching, especially
during the night finally broke the
skin, and during the day the watery
fluid that came from It would dry and
peel off like fish scales. My stocking
would stick to my ankle as If It were
glued. I also had it on my fingers.
“I was treated without getting any
benefit. I began using Cuticura Soap
and Ointment as directed and then ap-
plied the Cuticura Ointment and bound
the ankle with a soft bandage, after
bathing It with Cuticura Soap. They
cured me in about two months.”

Classy List of Pies.
The gentleman with a concave front
and a large watch chain alighted from
the train at a junction in a western
state, and rapidly made his way to the
dining-room of the only hotel in the
place.
“What kind of pies have you here?”
he asked eagerly of the kittenish old
lady who stood at hls elbow.
“All four kinds,” she replied, with
an air of disdain.
“What are they?"
“Open-faced, cross-bar, kivered up,
and the kind mother used to make,”
was the catalogue which she gave.—

Serious Lack.
An old Englishwoman, who was ex-
tremely stout, was making vain ef-
forts to enter the rear door of an
omnibus. The driver leaned over
good-naturedly, and cried:
“Try sideways, mother, try side-
ways!”
The old woman looked up breath-
lessly, and replied:
“Why, bless ye, James, I ain’t got
no sideways!”—Youth’s Companion.
Of Course.
