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.” FREEDOM FOR RUSSIA IS HOPE OF GOREEY Russian Novelist Leader of New Revolution.

IC-lyr, ELLIOTT ESTES. Jr., General Agent H : ■: M 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.” Gigantic Steel Plant Proposed.

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.
