NATURE
AND 1 WOMAN'S WORK
Nature and a woman’s work com
bined have produced the' grandest
remedy for woman’s ills that the
world has ever known.
In the good old-fashioned days of
our grandmothers they relied upon
the roots and herbs of the field to
cure disease and mitigate suffering.
The Indians on our Western
Plains to-day can produce roots and
herbs for every ailment, and cure
diseases that baffle the most skilled
physicians who have spent years in
the study of drugs.
From the roots and herbs of the
field Lydia E. Pinkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
of the world a remedy for their pe
culiar ills, more potent and effica
cious than any combination of drugs.
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for woman's ills.
Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 515 N.C. St.,
Louisiana, Mo., writes:
Complete restoration to health
means so much to me that for the sake
of other suffering’ women I am willing
to make my troubles public.
“For twelve years I had been suffer
ing with the worst forms of female ills.
During that time I had eleven different
physicians without help. No tongue
can tell what I suffered, and at times I
conid hardly walk. About two years
ago 1 wrote Mrs. Pinkham fcr advice.
I followed it, and can truly say that
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice re
stored health and strength. It is
worth mountains of geld to suffering
women.”
What Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege
table Compound did for Mrs. Muff,
it will do for other suffering women.

VISIONS OF A DRUNKARD.
Manifestations of Delirium Tremens
from Doctor’s Standpoint.
Good old Burton made of his •'An
atomy of Melancholy” one of the
most remarkable books ever produced
by human mind, but he fought shy of
the anatomy of delirium tremens. Xo
scientist has ever exactly diagnosed
the physical condition which induces
the victim of excessive alcoholism to
rave, to shout, and cringe, and exhibit
ail the phases of the most abject and
horrific terror In the imagined presence
of something more than a whole zoolog
ical garden; for the victim of extreme
delirium ebrius sees creatures that
are not known to air, earth or sea. I
inquired of a number of learned phy
sicians to know the physical, the
nerve, the brain condition which could
produce these imaginary animals, rep
tiles, dragons and devils, making them
as corporeal as though they were a
tangible fact. They were agreed (di
vesting their diagnosis of technicali
ties), that the illusions are due to an
overstrain of the visual nerve cen
ters.
“.lust what it is that produces the
horrible and grotesque spectacles wit
nessed by the victim of alcoholic de
lirium.” said Dr. Robert W. McClel
Horrible Visions.
land, "is probably as impossible as to
explain the mysteries of nightmare.
That it is due to the effect of poison
in drugs or stimulants acting on the
nervous system can be readily stated.
That this poison acting upon the nerve
centers, and especially the nerves
which actuate the visual organs, is
obviously in evidence. Hut just what
it is in the mental condition which
makes the object take the form of a
rat. a snake, a devil, a dragon, or
creature unknown to natural history,
is a more occult question. The victim
has been in a condition of extreme
mental stress. He feels that the world
is against him. He is a lost creature
to this life and is the creature of an
other world. His imagination is over
wrought and distorted, and automatic
ally brings into existence impossible
visions which seem to him absolutely
real. They might be said to be men
tal impressions erroneously inter
preted by the perceptive faculties.
How these strange creations are pro
duced and wbv they assume particu
lar forms would be as difficult to ex
plain as to diagnose the conditions
that induce an ugly dream, with the
exception that in the case of the al
coliolist we know that the exact
source of the illusion, even though we
I cannot describe the mental process
by which it is produced. We cannot
say why insane persons are pursued
by fiends, or why they imagine they
are kings, queens or deities; and the
delirium of alcoholism Is a species yf
insanity.”
REFORM GAINS HEADWAY.
Progress of the Total Abstinence In
Sweden.
The movement in favor of total ab
stinence is at present making a marked
advance throughout the Scandinavian
provinces, and notably in Sweden,
. where intemperance had for many
years proved one of the greatest hin
, dranees to national progress. A recent
[ report of the Good Templar order of
| Sweden shows largely increased gains
I in the membership of the order and
states that total abstinence sentiment
is spreading rapidly in all parts of the
state. The grand lodge of the order
was instituted in 1880, and has now
2.872 subordinate societies, with a
total membership of 190,676 enrolled
as active supporters of the total ab
stinence cause. The grand lodge car
ries on organized educational work,
having numerous courses of study, lec
ture bureaus and study circles, which
are largely instrumental in promoting
the interests of temperance. A progres
sive temperance publication issued by
the order has been greatly successful
in shaping temperance sentiment and
in furthering the cause of temperance
reform in that country.
Newspaper# of the World.
There are 12.500 newspapers pub
lished in the United States; about
1.000 of them are published daily and
120 are managed, edited and pub
lished by negroes. In Asia there are
3.000 periodical publications, of which
the greater part appear in Hritish In
dia and Japan; the latter country pub
lishes 1,500 newspapers. Africa has
only 200 newspapers, of which 30 are
published in Egypt and the rest ap
pear in the various European colonies.
“Nails.”
“Nails are a mighty good thing—
particularly finger nails—but I don’t
believe they were intended solely for
scratching—though 1 used mine large
ly for that purpose for several years.
I was sorely affected and had it to do.
One application of Hunt’s Cure, how
ever, relieved my itch and less than
a box cured me entirely."

Maj. Foote Reports All Hope of Mak
ing Crop Is Now Past in the
Flooded Section.
Natchez, Miss.—Maj. Stephen
Foote. I'nited States army, with head
quarters at Jackson barracks. New
Orleans, is in Natchez, having return
ed from a trip over the Black river
i La.) district, which had been under
water lor such a length of time as to
preclude the possibility ol making a
crop of any kind.
He said the district is peopled with
white cilizens and that after the wa
ter had receded and the seed furnish
ed by the government had been plant
ed, a sige of rain came and destroyed
every hope of a crop.
To aid to the distressing situation,
the fund out of which government
rations had brut furnished is prac
tically exhausted and the people are
in urgent need of relief.
Maj. Foote’s report can be applied
to the .Mississippi lands that were
ovei flowed from March 21 to July 11,
a period of 113 days, which is un
paralleled in tht history of the river.
Following this came sixteen days of
rain, making it impossible for the
farmers to grow any kind of a crop.
Forty thousand acres of cultivated
land in the counties of Claiborne,
Jefferson, Adams and Wilkinson
(Mississippi), and 42,000 acres in the
parishes ot Tensas and Concordia
(Louisiana), were under water. The
flood was prolonged on account of the
high stages of the Arkansas. These
lands are covered with water when
the stage reaches 43 feet, a point
reached at S a. m. of March 21, and
continuing until July 11.
Holland Will Demand Apology.
The Hague.—The distant Venezue
lan war cloud does not ruffle the pla
cidity of the Dutch capitol in the
least. There is no enthusiasm over
the prospect of punishing President
(’astro tor the insult suffered by the
Dutch minister.
Some show of interest was made
directly after the recent meeting of
the cabinet, at which the entire situa
tion was discussed, but since then
the wheels of the government have
moved slowly. ,M. DeReus is expected
to arrive here tomorrow.
Officials of the foreign office profess
to believe there is yet a chance of
settling the troubles between the two
nations by diplomacy, but prepara
tions which are now being made by
the ministry of marine discredit such
optimism. .Nothing less than the
speedy withdrawal of President ('.is
tro’s decrees, which have been the
naans of crippling trade in Curacao,
and something in the nature of an
apology would be satisfactory to Hol
land.
A full agreement with the govern
mtnt of the Cnited States has been
reached. The Cnited States govern
ment lias ruled that there would be
no objection to a blockade of Ven
ezuelan ports or other measures
against Venezuela, providing no ter
ritory was seized. That leaves the
way open now for Holland to proceed
against President Castro as she
pleases.
Negro Suspect Held.
Chattanooga, Tenn.—Will Hunter,
a negro answering the description
furnished by the Birmingham authori
ties ot the negro who brutally asault
ed Mrs. Sarah Mallet in East Thomas,
a suburb ot that city Saturday night,
was arrested by Deputy Sheriff Me
Llhaney. He was taken from the
10:31 Birmingham train. Hunter,
though acknowledging to have come
direct from Birmingham, and stating
.hat he had lived within a short dis
tance cl the spot where the crime was
committeed, denied all knowledge of
■ he crime.
Theft Charged to Fitzgerald.
Chicago.—The mystery of the theft
c: $173,000 from the United States
sr.btreasuiy a year and a half ago.
un< of tin largest losses the govern
ment has evei suffered in this man
ner. is believed to have been solved
by the arrest at an early hour Sunday
ol George W. Fitzgerald. Others are
leiieved to have been implicated in
h» crime, which for months com
pletely baffled government secret
service men. Fitzgerald was an as
serting teller under Assistant United
States Treasurer William Bolden

Bed Negro Escapes.
Montgomery, Ala.— Mack Holland,
the negro charged with assault, was
taken from Montgomery Sunday night
to Greenville by Sheriff Watson of
Butler county and escaped front the

the negro, who attempted to assault

Macon, Ua.—Joseph II. Hall, chair
man ol the Bibb County Democratic
Club, received a telegram from Nor
man fc.. Mack, chairman of the Na
tional Democratic Committee, Chicago,
canceling the engagement of Wnt. J.
Bryan to speak in Macon September
14. The reasons given for canceling
the engagement is that Mr. Bryan
found he could not come to Georgia
without visiting other states In this

advisable for him to confine himself
to the doubtful states.

Her Reserved Seat.
It was raining and the ear was sop
ping wet. Most of the passengers ,
stood, but there are always excep- j
tions.
One big pink man with a snowy
beard defied rheumatism and wet ,
cloth by plumping himself down on
one of the drippy seats. His presum- ;
able wife, with a laughing explanation ;
that she was tired, seated herself in
his lap. And when the conductor
came along to collect fares she in
quired. with tlje earnestness of one
who seeks knowledge:
"Do 1 have to pay extra for a re
served seat?"
The conductor spoke no w'ords that
could go resounding down the corri
dors of time. He just grinned, and
the passengers grinned with him.
Those Men!
"1 went into the office looking like
a fright." said the woman. "1 didn't
have a chance to straighten my hat
or pat my hair or anything. 1 had in
tended to primp going up in the ele
vator. but there was a man standing
before each mirror twirling his mus
tache and I couldn't even get a peep
