Pinkiiam : I am so pleased with the results obtained from Lydia H. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound that I feel it a duty and a privilege to write you about it. "I suffered for more than five years with ovarian troubles, caus ing an unpleasant discharge, a great weakness, and at times a faintness would come over me which no amount of medicine, diet, or exercise seemed to correct. Your Vegetable Compound found the weak spot, however, within a few weeks and saved me from an operation all my troubles had disappeared, and I found myself once more healthy and well. "Words fail to describe the real, true, grateful feeling that is in my heart, and I want to tell every sick and suffering sister. Don't dally with medicines you know nothing about, but take Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound, and take my word for it, you will be a different woman in a short time." --Mrs. Laura Emmons, Walker ville, Ont.

ACT. 2j0 Alder St.Portland, Ore, of Ovarian Trouble "Dear Mrs. Pinkham: For several years I was troubled with ovarian trouble and a painful and inflamed condition, which kept me in bed part of the time. I did so dread a surgical operation. I tried different remedies hoping to get better, but nothing seemed to bring relief until a friend who had been cured of ovarian trouble, through the use of your compound, induced me to try it. I took it faithfully for three months, and at the end of that time was glad to find that I was a well woman. Health is nature's best gift to woman. and if you lose it and can have it restored through Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound I feel that all suffering women should know of this."

Government to Pay for Kansas Land Granted to Settlers. Nearly Two Million Dollar to Be- Di vided AmonK 0,000 Ked Men of the Six Nation In New York State. The interior department, through Indian Commissioner Jones, is making preparations to pay $1,91)8,744 to the ix Nations Indians of New York state, awarded to them by congress Hire years, ago, as the result of their fa mous Kansas land claim against the United States government. The In dians who will receive the money num ber about 6.000 and are includtd in the Onomlagas, Oneida, Cayusras, Sen eras. St. Regis, Tuscaroras, Stockbridges M usees and 15rothertowns tribes Each individual will receive approx imately !?noo, and the money will b paid by check to prevent frauds, says a Washington report. The history of lhe Six Nations' claim against the government is interesting and shows another attempt of the white man to cheat the redskin out of what was rightfully his. Several his torical documents of almost priceless value figure in the case. One of the documents is a sheepskir parchment, dated 1793, and signed "Knox, Secretary of War." This paper was issued during Washington's ad ministration. The paper is addressed "To the Sachems, Chiefs and Warriors of the Six Nations." and is a request from the government for the Indians to hold a convention and sicn a treaty with the newly established common wealth wrested from (iunt Britain As a result of this the treaty with th New York Indians of 1794 was signed which brought peace 1o the westerr boundaries of the infant republic. The second document is dated "Wai Department, May 14, 1798," and ii signed "Joseph W. Henry, Secretarj of War." It is a statement from Uncle Sam. showing that the sum of $100,00( had been received on deposit from the Six Nations a1 the United States treas ury. Beth of these papers are orig inals and very valuable. The $100,00( referred to is the sum received by thf Tnd::ms fmir Robert Morris, thePhila-. do!la capitalist, for 5.000.000 acrei of 1h-' tidiest land in New York state In 1797, when Morris bought the land, he paid for it at the rate of two cents an acre. The Kansas claim originated in 1833. although nothing was heard of it at that time. In that year the New York Indians decided to move west and pur chased 500.000 acres of land in Wiscon sin. For some reason they did not make the trip and the same year the Indians traded , the land In Wisconsin to the government for 1,824,000 acres of land in Kansas. A project to settle on this la-nd also fell through, and the Indians did not go to Kansas. In 1860, when the por tion of Kansas where the land lay was opened for settlement, white men took up the Indians' land and in 1873 con gress passed a law to sell the Indians land in Kansas to white settlers, ii spite of the fact that 40 years before they had given this land to the Indians fter 20 years of constant efforts con rress in 1900 passed the law authoriz ng the payment of nearly $2,000,00 for the land in dispute. The Six Nations, now numberinf ibout 6,000, still retain 55,000 acres ii tV richest-part of New York state They are wealthy and industrious, nnc have in the United States treasury f ari'e sum of nvmpy. The $100,000 ob tained from Robert Morris in 1797 if still untouched and to that has beer added by various sales of land sums which have made the total nearly $250, 000. on which the Indians annually draw interest. SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY. f The four greatest need's of Greece grain, coal, iron and lumber are the ones which the United States would best be able to supply. The yearly grosa earnings of the United States Steel corporation are ap proximately equal tothegrossreven.ua received by the United States govern ment. Seventy French firms manufacture motor cars and their combined output last year was 12,000 cars. The industry employed 180,000 workmen, earning on an average $360 a year each. Large deposits of stone suitable for lithogrnphic purposes have been dis covered and opened in Thessaly. Greek experts report that this stone is far su perior in quality to the best litho graphic stone heretofore known in Eu rope. Under the heading, "A New German Industry," German papers state that the manufacture of quartz glass is rapidly developing in that country. Quartz glass consist essentially of melted quartz and is perfectly trans lucent. The membership of the United M;re Workers of America, as fix wn from the number who paid the per capita tax during the month cf Mr.rch. is arger than it has ever len in the his toiy of the organization. Last year it reached 232,000, while this ytar it is 201,439. " " Peat fuel in freight locomotives in Sweden has hauled the maximum load, the cost being about the same as with English coal. To avoid the expense of an extra fireman, however, the peat is now mixed with an equal weight of coal, and the mixture has proven so satisfactory that it is to be tried on pas senger trains. The shape of the rudder of a vessel sterns to be of more importance than has been generally supposed. Experi ments in Scotland by J. Foster King indicate that the rectangular form has decided advantages, as it presents a larger surface- at the loda line under all conditions and requires a smaller stock and working gear than curved shapes. With sufficient area the nar row blade is as effective as the broad one, while it can be set more rapidly. WOMAN PRISON CHAPLAIN. MlnUters ReffitlA-rlr to the HardoJted Character Confined In Lr atulc (Wro.) Jail. The only woman in the world en gaged as chaplain in a prison is Mrs. May Preston 31o6son, of Wyoming, and she perform her duties with a teal that is worthy of all praise. She is a regularly ordained minister of the Gospel and might be settled over a prosperous church, but she tees her iuty lie among the convict at Lara mie and has chosen that as her field of effort, reports the Chicago Chron icle. Mrs. Slo&son received the first de cree granted to a woman at Cornel! jniversity, where she worked f or twe rears after she had received the mas ;er's degree at Hillsdale college, Mich igan. After graduating she accepted the professorship of Greek at Hastings college, Nebraska, and was married in 1891 to Prof. Edwin E. Slosson, pro fessor of chemistry at the University of Wyoming in Laramie. In Wyoming the prisoners of the state, penitentiary were at one time kept without work on account of the opposition of the trades unions to their employment. Men deprived ol the saving grace of work, no matter to what part of the community they belong, soon become thrown out of their balance. That happened to the prisoners, who got into a peculiarly morbid and unruly condition. It was in that frame of mind that Mrs. Slosson conceived the idea whicJ. the authorities permitted her to put into practice. She arranged for a aeries of Sunday afternoon talks and experimental lectures by the profes sors of the university. She herself gave two lectures before the convicts, and when the minister who was acting as the chaplain left the town the prisoners' petitioned the governor to appoint her chaplain. He acceded to the request, and since July, 1899, she has filled the office not only to the satisfaction of the authorities, but, what is more important, to the satisfaction of those who are the en forced members of her congregation. The prisoners number some 220 and consist for the most part of younp men who have gone west from a spirit of adventure and have got into trou ble either through drink or from "get ting the brand on the wrong cattle,' as cattle stealing is euphoniously re ferred to by the men themselve. Blood Corpac9 at War. The war between the white corpus cles of the blood and the microbes ol disease was first described by the Russian pathologist, Metchnikoff While devoting himself to the study of inflammations he in each case noted the presence of white cells in the blood currents in abnormal numbers. Inside these two cells he invariably found the specific microbe of the disease tinder consideration it seemed that the big corpuscl.-i were devouring the poisonous-microbes. Sometimes the number taken up by a corpuscle was too great and it died as a result. If this over coming of the white corpuscle by the microbes was general the patient died. Medical Journal. NOTHING POETIC. ' How ta Fond Drama of a Devote ,WMt Waa Badolr De pollod Some men are never poetle; others lose their poetic sense with the en croachment of years. At least that is the opinion of a matron now past middle life, says the Chicago Chron icle. "The only trouble with a man is that he loses the poetic side of hie nature as the years roll by," she re marked. "Now, only yesterday my, husband took on the far-away look. I must confess it recalled the delight ful days when he put all his talent into telling me how charming I was and how all his life was wrapped up in me, saying it as constantly and with as many enchanting' rariatione as even a woman oould desire. For a long time I watched him in silence. Then at last, unable longer to bear the suspense, I softly asked: 'What are you thinking about, dear?' 'I was wonder! ig.' he answered, 'if Ij shouldn't be quite safe in leaving off my winter underwear.' Now, wasn't that poetic! Yet that same Iconoc lastic man is brave enough to com plain at times that I have changed." Timber Land, Act June 3, 1878. NOTICE FOR PUBLICATION.
