I < WORKING WOMEN Their Hard Struggle Made Easier—Interesting State* ments by a Young Lady in Boston and One in Nashville, Tenn. mm |vXv:v V Frankie Orser * JV^AfissPearf Ackers^ All women work; some in their homes, 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 laws; all suffer alike from the same physical disturbance, and the nature of their duties, in ipany cases, quickly drifts them into the horrors of all kinds of female complaints, tumors, ulceration, falling and displace ments or perhaps irregularity or suppression, causing backache, ner vousness, irritability and lassitude. They especially require an invigorat ing, sustaining medicine which will strengthen the female organism and enable them to bear easily the fatigues of the day, to sleep well at night, and to rise refreshed and cheerful. How distressing to see a woman Struggling to earn a livelihood or per form her household duties when her back and bead are aching, she is so tired she can hardly drag about or stand up, and every movement causes pain, the origin of which is due to some derangement of the female or ganism. MissF. Orser, of 14 Warren ton Street. Boston, tells women how to avoid such suffering; she writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkhom:— “ I suffered misery for several years with female irregularities. My back ached; I had bearing-down i>uiu8, and frequent headaches; I could not sleep and could hardly drag around. I consulted two physicians without relief, and as a last resort, 1 tried Lylia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and to my surprise, every ache and pain left me. I gained ten pounds and am in perfect health." Miss Pearl Ackers, of 327 North Sum- 1 mer Street, Nashville, Tenn., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— “ I suffered with painful periods, severe backache, bearing-down pains, pains across the abdomen; was very nervous and irrita ble, and my trouble gr .v worse every month. “My physician faded to help me and I decid'd to try Lydia E. Pinkhain's Vegetable Compound. I soon found it was doing me good. All my pains and aches disappeared, and I no longer fear my monthly periods.” Lydia E, Pinkham’s Vegetable Com pound is the unfailing cure for all these troubles. It strengthens the proper muscles, and displacement with all its horrors will no more crush you. Backache, dizziness, fainting, bear ing-down pains, disordered stomach, moodiness, dislike of friends and society —all symntoms of the one cause—will be quickly dispelled, and it will make you strong and well. You can tell the story of your suf ferings to a woman, and receive help ful advice free of cost. Address Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass. The present Mrs. Pinkham is the daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham and for twenty- five years she has, under her direction and since her decease, been advising sick women free of charge.

Jr., General Agent DOME SHOUTS DEFI TO CITY OF ZION ROPE MAY MISS ELDER RAWLINGS Will Not Negotiate for Peace With Voliva. DOW! E WOULD HEAD CHURCH First Apost'e Declares that He Will Have. Voliva Excommunicated, anJ Will Resume Entire Charge of Af fairs in Zion City. Chicago, April 18.—All negotiations looking toward a peaceful settlement of the question as to who shall control Zion City, and its vast resources, have been broken otf. John Alexander Dowie, through his attorneys, S. C. VVetten and P. C. Ha ley, threw down the gaunlet to Gener al Overseer Wilbur Glen Voliva and his followers when a proposition ad vanced by the Volivaites to the effect that the ?21,000,000 estate be turned over to a board of control was reject ed by Dowie. According to the provisions of this proposition the board was to consist of nine members, four of them to be se lected by Dowie and a like number to be selected by Voliva. The ninth mem ber was to be selected by the board as created. It was stipulated thai both Dowie and Voliva be active mem bers of this hoard, and that the action of the members thereof be final in de termining whether or not the deposed “first apostle” or Voliva he the recog nized head of I he Christian Catholic church. Dowie has rejected the proposal on the grounds that not only would he not acquiesce in the appointment of Voliva on the board, but that he no longer recognized the new r leader as a mem her of tht; church. In speaking of the ultimatum, Attor- ney Haley, i\ presenting Dr. Dowie, said: * “As soon as we can obtain the neoes sary information we will file a bill in chancery in the circuit court of Lai., county at Waukegan, This instrument will he a petition that the transfer of the property of Zion City executed by General Overseer Voliva giving to' Deacon Alexander Granger full title) thereof, be declared void, We are handicapped to the extent that Voliva, and his forces have in their possession | all of the books and papers concerning) Zion City and its property. It may be | necessary for ns to go into court to get! possession of these. As son as we oh j tain the desired information, the billj will be filed.” According to the statmeents of his attorneys and of his followers, who are wdth him at the Auditorium Annex, Dr. Dowie will go to Zion City some time this week. it is declared by the Dow Prison Commission Has Not Yet Been Appealed To. Atlanta, Ga., April 18.—No action has as yet been taken by the state prison commission in the cases of Mil- ton and Jesse Uawlings, who, along with their father, J. G. Rawlings, are sentenced to be hanged iu Jx>wndes county for the murder </ the Carter childern, and the statement published to the effect that the commission had recommended them for commutation to life imprisonment was erroneous. Now that the supreme court of tho United States has denied their appeal and held that they had a legal and constitutional trial, there is nothing left for the Rawlingses to do but ap peal to the prison commission. An effort may bo made to save the life of old man Rawlings on the ground that he is insane, and his counsel, it is said, relies somewhat upon the -re cent declarations he has made that he would like to be hanged at once and have it over with. Several letters have already been written to the prison commission in belwilf of Milton and Jesse Rawlings, asking that their sentences be com muted to life imprisonment, but no formal application for clemency has yet been filed in any or the three cases. These appeals are based largely on the ground that the boys were compelled to do wnat they did by th(ir father, who was the prim mover in the murder. The cases of the boys will no doubt ne taken up before the prison commission on tins ground and with this end in view at an early date. It will probably be several wi eks before the remittitur in the Ravi ng cases is received from me supreme court of the T'nited States, and the men cannot be resentenced to death until that arrives.
