STOP, WOMAN!
AND CONSIDER
THE ALL-
IMPORTANT PACT
Ik
That in address
ing' Mrs. Pink-
ham you are con
fiding your private
ills to a woman—
a woman whose experi
ence with women’s dis
eases covers a great
many years.
Mrs. Pinkham is the
daughter-in - law of
Lydia E. Pinkham,
and for many years
underherdirection,
and siuce her de
cease.she has been
advising sick wo
men free of charge.
Many women
suffer in silence and drift along from
bad to worse, knowing full well that
they ought to have immediate assist
ance, but a natural modesty impels
them to shrink from exposing them
selves to the questions and probable
examinations of even their family
physician. It is unnecessary. Without
money or price you can consult a wo
man whose knowledge from actual ex
perience is great.
Mrs. Pinkham’s Standing Invitation.
W T omen suffering from any form of
female weaknessare invited to promptly
communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at
Lynn. Mass. All letters are received,
opened, read and answered by women
only. A woman cau freely talk of her
private illness to a woman: thus has
been established the eternal confidence
between Mrs. Pinkham and the women
of America which has never been
broken. Out of the vast volume of
experience which she has to draw from,
it is more than possible that she ha^
gained the very knowledge that will
help your ease. She asks nothing in
return except your good-will, and her
advice has relieved thousands. Surely
any woman, rich or poor, is very foolish
if she does not take advantage of this
generous offer of assistance.
If you are ill, don't, hesitate to get a
bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham’sVegetable
Compound at once, and write Mrs. 1’ink-
ham. Lynn Mass., for special advice.
When a medicine has been successful
in restoring to health so many women,
you cannot well say, without trying it,
“ I do not believe it will help me.”

The State of South Carolina is sending off the
approximate annual amount of $3,000,000 in Life
Insurance Premiums. That amount, less a small
proportion, goes to the North and West each year
for investment, and in twenty years; including
interest, will amount to something like
$100,000,000.00
This should not lie. Keep your premiums
at home for the development of your own

Maxim Gorky Declares Jews Will Not
Suffer in the Event Russia Becomes
a Republic—Takes Sanguine View
of the Situation.
New York, April 11.—"I don't know
how long my stay in this country will
be, but of this a am sure, that while
here I will try to do something for my
fatheraind.”
Maxim Gorky, the Russian novelist,
made this statement in his cabin on
board the Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosso
which arrived Tuesday evening. Gor
ky, who was registered in the passen
gor list under his real name of Pash
<off, is accompanied by his wife and
a secretary.
The steamer was boarded at a quar
antine station by a large deputation
of Russians, representing many differ
eut political partios. Chief among
these was Gorky’s adopted son. Others
were Ivan Naodny, whose real name |
!s Sybal, the exiled leader of the mill-
tary revolutionary party; Abraham Ga
ban, editor of the social democratic
“Vorwaertz,” representing the Jewish
revolutionary Society; H. C. Wilshire
and Morris fiillquit, representing the
the American social democratic party,
and Dr. Maxim Romm, a Russian so
oial democrat.
Gorky received thcno on the upper
Jerk, and seemed almos- overcome at
meeting so many friends. He gave
out the following statement:
“I apologize many times to the press
jf the free Gnited States that I cannot
speak at this time. I am very much
fatigued and overwhelmed by the gran
'itii r of the ocean. I will take a few
days’ rest and will be delighted to re
ceive the representatives of the press.
At this moment, however, I beg to be
excused.”
Later on his friends persuaded him
to answer a few questions, one of the
Russians acting as interpreter,
holding elections. That the douma” he
said, “nor in the present method of
holding elections. That th edouma
will bring Russia quiet and prosperity,
I do not believe. The actual condi-
turn of the revolution in Russia is this
—in more than 22 provinces the peo
pie are starving to death using all the
money they have and receive to buy
arms with. The attitude of the church
towards the revolution Is very inter-
tsting, considering the people’s hate
and distrust of the church. In the
present revolution, country priests an
actually the leaders ot the peasantry.
"If the revolution should succeed,
Russia will go tie;* way America went
—that is, a federation. We have so
man.', nationali its in our empire that
a federation would be the best solu
tion. What will be come of the czar
in that case. Well, I suppose nothing.
One of the most important men in re
cent events was Witte. Tie is devoid
of talent, power and honesty, and, in
our opinion, he is a scoundrel.
“The Jews will not suffer In case
Russia should become a republic. Rus
sia needs them, and they should be giv
en an opportunity. IV,u the future
will not be non without the use of
force, and unfortunately, our fight will
have to be foug:,; from tie hind barri
cades.”

Express Company Receives a Pack
age of Money Recently.
Washington, Ga., April 11.—The safe
In the office of the Southern Express
company’s office in this city was loot
ed Saturday night while the agent, J.
R. Smith, was at supper, and about $80
in gold was obtained. In the same
chest containing the gold was between
four atid five hundred dollars In silver
and greenbacks, but this was unmo
lested.
Circumstances pointed strongly to
the guilt of a 17-year-old lad who had
recently been discharged from the em
ploy of the company, and he was
brought before the agent and police
and questioned as to his whereabouts
on Saturday evening. When he became
very much confused in his explana
lions, and made several contradictory
statements regarding the matter, he
was told that, unless the missing gold
was forthcoming by noon he would be
put behind prison bars.
Tuesday morning at 11 o’clock J. R.
Smith, the agent for the express com
pany, was handed a tobacco sack con
taining seven gold coins of $10 each,
together with $10 in currency and sil
ver. With the money, wnlch was sent
by a small negro boy, was a note, sans
address and sans signature bearing
these words, “This is the moneys that
was taken from you.” N'o arrest has
been made.
FIRST CAR OF STRAWBERRIES.
South Alabama Will Produce a Large
Crop this Season.
Montgomery, Ala., April 11.—The
first carload of strawberries shipped
this season from the berry region of
southern Alabama passed through the
city of Montgomery Tuesday.
The car was a consignment to deal
ers at Pittsburg, Pa., and was shipped
from Castleberry, tho center of the
strawberry district of Alabama.
The frosts of March did not do the
damage to the strawberry crop that
was at first reported. Only the blos
soms were killed, and the embryo
blooms, under the influence of the
bright spring sunshine and the warm
April showers soon put in an appear
ance, with the result that In 28 days
from the date of what seemed a total
annhilation of the crop, car load lots
of the berries are being shipped to the
northern markets. More than 300
cars will be shipped.
Strike Fast Diminishing.
Wheeling, W. Va., April 11.—Agree-

pected enough concessions will be
granted by both sides to effect resump

Mississippi Above Danger Line.
Memphis, April 11.—The Mississip
pi had a stage of 35.8 feet here on
Wednesday, which is 2.8 feels above
the danger line. Large areas of bot
tom land north and south of Memphis
are under water. The levees, however,
are holding the vast volume of water
to its channel and it is believed the
fertile land protected by them will es
cape an overflow. Government Fore
caster Emery predicts that the gauge
will make 36.5 feet during the week
when a rapid decline will follow.
