Wednesday, May 10,1905. Sigh Officials as Masons. President. Vice President and Most Members of Congress are Affiates. A Washington special to the New York Evening Post say?: Both Mr. j Roosevelt and Mr. Fairbanks went i into Masonry after they had been chosen for the office of vice president. Mr. Roosevelt was popularly elected in November, 1900, and before the winter was over he bad become a member of the Matincock lodge, at Oyster Bay. He has been elected to receive the degrees in the Royal Arch chapters but has never taken them, because of the pressure of ? n:- i TT a miohK nf pUUWU UUOIUCCIO. uw ? , -course, take these degrees during the summer vacation at Oyster Bay, but this would now attract so much' attention as to embarrass him and the chapter at that place, and so be has decided to wait until he is once more a private citizen. Mr. Fairbanks took the symbolic blue lodge degrees at Indianapolis, under a dispensation from the great master of Indiana, during the recent holiday recess, the three degrees being conferred in one day. He has since, immediately following the adjournment of the special session of the senate, taken the chapter degrees, also under dispensation, and in one day. It issaid to be his purpose during tbe present year to take tbe remaining degrees of the New York rite, endiog with that of Knight Templar, and then to take the Scottish Bite degrees up to and including tbe thirtySecond degree. He will thus be shown all the mysteries of the order far ahead of the man whose place in the White House he hopes to fill after 1908. It is rather a noteworthy fact that the great majority cf Presidents of the United States from Washington to Roosevelt have been members of the Masonic fraternity. In the later years the best known of these are -Garfield, Harrison and McKinley. Garfield was a Knight Templar and held his membership in all tbe York rite bodies in this city. He was a charter member of a Washington klnA nnd romainoi^ nn it.n nil PR VIUV AVVj^V UM\A ?W?MM4MVV> until hie death. McKinley was also a Knight Templar, but hie membership was in Ohio. John Qaincy Adams, who came into the Presidency during the days of the anti-Mason excitement, talked and wrote against the order with considerable vigor. Andrew Jackson at one time was grand master of the grand lodge of Tennessee. An informal poll wae made of the two houses of congress a tev: years ago by a Washington Mason, and it was discovered that more than 87 per cent of the members of the House were in the order, aDd more than 80 per cent of the members of the Senate. The city of Washington is perhaps the strongest Masonic city of the world. Of its population of 278,000, after deducting 96,000 negroes, 183,000 people remain from whom to draw for Masonic purposes. The register of the grand lodge of this ilt-" alintBo fVtof tViaro era nnvardn r?f blbj DUUno luuu luviw w8,000 affiliated Masons here, belonging to twenty-seven blue lodges. There are fourteen Royal Arch chapters and five commanderies of Knights Templar. Washington is also the headquarters of the Scottish Rite of the southern jurisdiction, and on that account the Scottish Rite bodies here are especially stroDg. Several earnest efforts have been made by local lodges to have President Roosevelt visit them, but thus far without avail. He feels that he cannot accept one invitation of this character without accepting others, - * it .1 . 1^1 ana to accept an tnat wouia come would be highly inconvenient. He has been made an honorary member of two of the local blue lodges. Mr. Fairbanks has already visited several of the local lodges, and it is probable that these visits will be continued | next winter and during the rest ol his term as vice president.

PAINFUL Suggestions How to 1 While no woman is entirely free from periodical suffering', it does not seem to ! be the plan of nature that women should suffer so severely. Menstruation is a severe strain on a woman's vitality. If it is painful or irregular something is wrong which should be set right or it will lead to a serious derangement of the whole female organism. More than fifty thousand women have testified in grateful letters to Mrs." Pinkham that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound overcomes painful and irregular menstruation. It provides a safe and sure way of escape from distressing and dangerous weaknesses and diseases. The two following letters tell so convincingly what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound will do for women, they cannot fail to bring hope to thousands of sufferers. 1 Miss Nellie Holmes of 540 N. Davi sion Street, Buffalo, N. Y., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:? 41 Your medicine is indeed an ideal medicine for women. I suffered misery for years with painful periods, headaches, and bearing-down pains. I consulted two different physicians but failed to get any relief. A friend from 1 the East advised me to try Lvdia E. Pink- j ham's Vegetable Compound. I did so, and ' no longer suffer as I did before. My periods ? are natural: every ache and pain is gone, and my general health is much improved. I 1 advise all women who suffer to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound." Mrs. Tillie Hart, of Larimore, N. D., ; writes: \ Dear Mrs. Pinkham.*? 441 might have have been spared many 1 months of suffering and pain had I only ' known of the efficacy of Lydia E. Pinkham's 1 Ask Mrs. Pinkham's Adyice-A Womai Eerosene in the Household. ! Word and Works. There are few things found about the house more helpful to housekeeper than kerosene oil. It can be | used for polishing any glass surface \ and is especially nice for polishing j mirrors and window panes. Add a few drops to water and wash the glass with a soft rag, without nsing soap, then wipe with a dry cloth and polish, and it cannot be excelled for brilliancy. Then it is excellent for cleaning zinc-lined articles, each as bathtubs and sinks, if the sink is (nade of iron it will clean it as well. Wipe off thoroughly with a cloth dipped in the oil, then scrub with hot suds and the lining is brightened as well as cleansed. But where kerosene helps most of all is in the laundry, and if oae has not succeeded when using it is because it has not been ueed the right way. To give good results it must be boiled in the water before usiDg. It will remove ink, fruit and iron rust stains from any kind of cloth; if old stains let them soak in the oil, then rub out and wash in warm suds. It is a help to put the clothes to soak over night, as it loosens the dirt and saves rubbing. In the morning put on the boiler full of water, and to every pailful add one tablespoonful of soap powder and two of kerosene; stir well and let come to a boil; wring the clothes from the water in which they have been soaking, shake out loose, then put the nice ones in the boiler without rubbing and let boil fifteen minutes; take out and rinse in clear water, then in bluiDg water.

PERIODS Find Relief from Such ring'. Vegetable Compound sooner; fori have tried so many remedies without help. " I dreaded the approach of my menstrual period every month, as it meant so much pain and suffering for me, but after I had used the Compound two months I became regular and natural and am now perfectly well and free from pain at my monthly periods. I am very grateful for what Lydia E. Pintham's Vegetable Compound has done for me." Such testimony should be accepted ' by all women as convincing1 evidence that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound stands without a peer as a remedy for all the distressing ill" of women, The success of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound rests upon the well-earned gratitude of American women.
