mkilf.ys ihsv day. Nomrninii Caller nt tbr White lloune Old Comrade! Urccteel. WASHINGTON. March o. President MeKinley was on the move at an early hour this morning. He greeted the White House officials at 7:C o'clock and breakfasted at S with the family party, including his wife, mother and other nar relative;. Then he smoked a cigar, and at 9 o'clock entered the President's private office to begin coping with the Mood of public business. Already crowds of people had begun to arrive, clamoring at the main entrance to the executive mansion for admission. The doors were kept closed against the general crowd until 10 o'clock, but In the meantime a number of callers having special business gained udmission. The first caller was General Cowles, of XorthCarolina. who came at 8 o'clock, to arrange for a review of the North Carolina delegation. About 9:3) the official visitors began to put In their appearancr. Senator Cullom, of Illinois, was the first member of either branch of Congress to see the President. Ho was ushered into the President's office and remained for ten minutes. Following him came a number of New York representatives In Congress. They talked with Secretary Porter, but did not see the President, as he was busily engaged. ExItepresentattve Herman, of Oregon, also joined the congressional party in the secretary's Office. At 10 o'clock six of the members of Mr. Cleveland's retiring Cabinet called in a body. The party included Messrs. Carlisle, Laraont. Wilson, Herbert. Harmon. Francis and Morton. They were shown directly to the President and spent a quarter of an hour with him. It was a call of courtesy and of kindy exchange. About 1):30 o'clock Secretary Olney came over from tht State Department, By some mischance he had failed to meet the other members of the retiring Cabinet when they paid their formal call In a lody on the President. So somewhat belated, he came alone to pay his respects. Secretary Porter drew hlnj immediately Into his office and stated that the President, who had just gone downstairs to meet some callers in the East room, had stepped at the head of the corridor for the purpose of greeting the secretary of state. Mr. Olney disclaimed any purpose of consuming the President's time but on being reassured on that point by Secretary Pcrter he went downstairs to meet the President. Senator Sherman, who is to succeed to the office of secretary of state, had given Mr. Olney notice that he would not be prepared to begin the discharge of his new duties until next Monday and at the request of the President Mr! Olney consented to remain at the head of the State Department until that time. OLD COMRADES ADMITTTED. Meantime the crowds in front of the Executive Mansion had swelled to thousands. They surged up to the portico, surrounding the doors in solid masses and extending in both directions down the long semi-circular driveways to the outer gates. They came with bands playing and flags flying. One of the first organizations to call was that made up of the veterans who served with Major McKinley in the Twenty-third Ohio Volunteer Infantry. The President wished JhJ?1 oM comrades personally, and they tiled into the East room. Mr. McKli -ley came from his private apartments looking sturdy And vigorous, despite tl" strain or yesterday. He cordially" greeted each of the groups along the way; givln a hanIdsh,ake to each person:' He stSoS ?L ma!V,OOIl.of the i,st room while ,d f,ne"d3- rather than an official fhTvi..and lhe pUnt called most of u veterans by name. 2n ! ith the co"fued music of sevshouts lr,ml,ngiei1 tne continued snouts from hundreds of throats. It wa apparent that the throng could never get within the White House. Realizing this eltuatlon the President called for hfs hat and overcoat and stepped through the front doors to the marble portico. A great HaTs1 Ztrl VPrHS hcd? appearance Wer,e tflrown in tne air, handkerW ?a1S,UmHr,,.a" were waved frantically. Lie ladies Joining in the ovation. The J resident bowed repeatedly as the cheers continued. Then the clubs swung Into line JJ'ty1 Lh nd Playing, marched under throTigh the arch of the portico, each man uncovering his head as he passed irst came Troop A. of Cleveland, the iresl Went s personal escort yesterday, in their big black shakos and fine uniforms. The SavK! n adden Club, of Philadelphia. In black silk hats and dark suifs. were next followed by the William It. Ieds Association of Philadelphia, the Stamina Club, of Cincinnati, and the Americus Club, of Pittaburg. Mingled with these were men. women and children, not a part of any organization-, but all Intent on this demonstration to the new President, who seemed to enJoy It. smiling and saluting throughout the march of the clubs and crowds. SECRETARY LONG ARRIVES. While this demonstration wis proceeding in front of the mansion the individual callers were assembling above" In Secretary Porter's office and In the outer corridor. At 11:20 John D. Long, of Massachusetts, the new secretary of the navy, arrived, lie had Just reached Washington. Ho was ushered into the President's office, spending half an hour there after the President's return from the portico and then being invited to the private parlors of the presidential household at the west end of the mansion. Among the other callers were Senator Mason, of Illinois; Charles G. lawes. who will be controller of the currency: 11. Clay Evans, of Tennessee: Rev. Dr. Manchester, who is the President's pastor at Canton, and C. U. Gordon, who called relative to having the Marquette Club, of Chicago, received. Th? President saw fi number of the callers, although the others failed to get beyond the secretary's office, owing to the limitation of time. At 12:3) Senators Allison and Gorman and Scrgcant-at-arms Bright, of the Senate, arrived to give the President the usual formal notification that the Senate was in esslon. The call was brief and the senators hurried buck to the Capitol. The upper corridors leading to tho President's oflice continued to be crowded with anxious callers, but only a few of them were able to gain admission. Among those who saw the President were, Colonel John J. McCook. of New York, who had been prominently connected with Cabinet talk; Speaker Recti, Murat Halstead. Mayor Caldwell of Cincinnati. Adjutant General A. D. Cowles of South Carolina Pud state officers. The pressure of callers was such that the officials felt that little would Ih accomplished towards consummating official action on various questions expected to receive attention. Speaker Reed's visit with the President was an extended one. lasting more than half an hour. la t tie doubt was felt that It was in connection with th calling of Congress in extra session on March 1. and with the speedy passage of a tariff bill through the House of Representatives. Judge McKenna. another member of the new Cabinet, had an extended personal interview with the President during the early afternoon. Governor Drake, of Iowa, and staff, in full uniform, and a large delegitlon of Iowans, were received In the Presidents private office at 1 o'clock. The crowd was fairly disposed of by 1:15, when the President joined his family party at lunch. A RUSH OP VISITORS. About 2 o'clock Mr. McKinley left the dining room and on retiring to the private office found one of the members of his new Cabinet. Cornelius N. Rliss, of New York, who had a brief Interview with the President. Soon thereafter the outer doors were clos'.d agalnt the general crowd to the great disappointment of a large number of people who gathered throughout the afternoon and stooel In the rain in hope of catching a glimpa of the chief executive. The President's party at lunch consited of members of the McKinley family. About a charter pat 2 o'clock carne General Cox. the secretary of the Senate. He brought formal notice to the President of t he confirmation by the Senate of the Cabinet nominations submittal to-day. AH through the afternoon the callers carao

in and alt were received by the President when they were properly accredited. Senator Thurston, of Nebraska, had no less than a dozen in the party which he headed. Yet It was a remarkable fact that In the whole number of visitors there were only two persons who presente-d applications for office. In one or two instances a letter from some senator or representative or political leader was recelve-d. begging the President not to fill some special place until the writer was heard from. Mr. Gary, one of the new Cabinet, was one of the afternoon callers. Itte in the day Judge J. J. McCook called again with the party of friends. No persons were admitted above the ground floor after 4:30 o'clock. Down stairs, however, the receptions were resumed, and the President welcomed the Marquette Club, of Chicago, with a handshake for each member. The party was led by President I J. Smith. Treasurer E. G. Paulding and ex-President C. U. Gordon. Mrs. McKinley bore the day's ordeal very well Indeed. She breakfasted down stairs and Insisted on shaking hands with some of her husband's callers, including the members of Troop A. of Cleveland. President and Mrs. McKinley to-night entertained at dinner a number of the members of the partv who came with them In the special train from Canton. It was entirely an informal affair and was intended mainly as an honor to the younger persons. Mother McKinley also was present and in addition the following: Miss May Barber. Miss Ida Rarber. Miss Mabel McKinley. Miss Grace McKinlev. Mr. James McKinley. Mr. and Mrs. McWilliams. Miss Sarah Duncan. Jams Rarber, Samuel Saxton. Mr. and Mrs. J. W. MeClymonds and Mr. and Mrs. C. M. Russell.

IH'B TQ OVERSIGHTS. Why Secretary Olney IJId .Xot Attend Inauguration Ceremonies. WASHINGTON. March 5. The failure of President Cleveland's Cabinet to attend the Inaugural ceremonies on the east front of the Capitol yesterday and the absence of Secretary Olney from the whole proceedings, which has been construed in some quarters as an indication of friction between Mr. Cleveland and his prime minister, as well as a lack of consideration for the Cabinet on the part of the new administration, was really due to some slight oversights of persons charged with the preparation of the inaugural programme, for which neither the old nor the new administration can be held chargeable. There is no established precedent for the attendance of the Cabinet of the retiring President at the induction of his successor, and when it was noticed by the Cabinet members that no place had been set down for them In the official programme of the line of escort lo the Capitol they had no feeling on the subject and were prepared to accept the plan gracefully. However, it was deemed best to call attention of the Senate committee on arrangements to the matter, and this was done, but there was a further lapse somewhere and provision was not made for them. Refore the escort started for the Capitol the omission was disedvered by General Porter and President McKinley himself, and the Cabinet was placed in a proper position in the line as Mr. McKlnley's personal guests, all save Secretary Olney. who could not be reached in time with news of the arrangements made. The Idea that Mr. Olney had absented himself from the White House because of a rupture of the relations between himself and President Cleveland is scouted by the friends of both. It is probably true that there had been a difference of opinion between the President and Secretary Olney as to the transmission of the correspondence in the Ruiz case to Congress, but there was nothing approaching a rupture of friendly relations, and the President and his secretary parteel on good terms. There was another hitch in the proceedings at the Capitol which unfortunately added to the Impression that the Cabinet had been slighted. This was at the time when the assemblage in the chamber was about to repair to the inaugural platform outside. They had not provided for the Cabinet by an oversight, so. upon leaving the chamber the members who had already arranged to take luncheon with Secretary Lament went directly to his residence on Lafayette square, instead of going out on the platform. The'letter given below explains how Lilluckalanl obtained access to the Senate during the proceedings. It is doted: "United States Committee on Foreign Relations. Feb. 26," and is addressed: "Hon. Richard Olney, secretary of state." The letter reads: 'Sir Ex-Queen Liliuokalanl Is eleslrous of witnessing the Inauguration of the President and Vice President-elect on the 4th of March, and she, has made application through her friends for two seats, one for herself and one for her escort. It Is Impossible for the committee on arrangements to provide these seits except In the eliplomatlc gallery, but as the tickets in that gallery are. to be sent to you for distribution the committee eloes not teel at liberty to assign seats In the gallery to any one. It is, however, the judgment of the- committee on arrangements that you provide the seats for the ex-Queen cut of the sixty to le sent to you for the use of the diplomatic corps." The letter was signed: "John Ihc-rman. chairman of the committee on arrangements." "After the Ilnll." WASHINGTON. March 5. The city this morning looked very much like a theater in daylight or a picnic park after a barbecue. The brilliant weather of the fourth had given place to a cold, drizzling rain and mist. Flags and streamers hung limp and dejected, while under foot the streets were littered with torn paper, orange peel, and the countless debris left by the surging crowds of the day before. Few of the decorations have been removed and most of the reviewing stands are still intact, but they are dark and deserted and all wear a dlsheveletl air. According to the best estimates of the railroads up to date, the total visiting crowd was about 173.00O, a little less than half the number of four years ago. Even these have quickly dlsperseel and. while there are still noticeable crowds In and about the public buildings and the street-car lines are more than commonly crowded, the sidewalks are about tlown to their normal population. The most noticeable crowds are at the depots, where there is a crush and struggle to hoard the first outbound trains; but most of the specials and excursion trains have been already dispatched. IlrltlMliern Don't Like the Address. LONDON. March 3. The Globe, commenting upon the Inaugural address of President McKinley. says it does not commend itself to British manufacturers and merchants, as extreme protection is visible throughout It. The St. James Gazette, touching on the same subject, says Its references to currency are "as vague as Mr. Gladstone," adding: "English merchants have no neeel to be alarmed at the suggestion of a restoration of American merchant shipping. McKinley comes from an inland State and is hardly an authority on the subject." A Sllverlte Tribute. NEW YORK. March .".Congressman Francis G. Newlands, the free-silver representative from Nevada,, in an interview here to--day said: "President McKinley is g. honest-man 2tJl6the silver men a stron entertain for him persOi.-Uly the kindliest feelings.

MANY UIESTIO.XS AFFECT IX CI OIR FOUEICiX IlKLATIO.tS I XSKTTLEIL Evidence that the Xew Sccrcturj1 of St lite Will Have Plenty to Do in the Xest Few Years. WASHINGTON. March .".-Probably never before In American history lias an administration been obliged to face at the very beginning of its assumption of power so many and important questions affecting the foreign relations of the United States as confront President McKinley and his premier. Secretary Sherman. All of these are Important and while some of them may le for a time kept In the background others and those of the utmost gravity are likely to force themselves on the attention of the new administration In such a persistent manner that they must be met promptly. In the list of open diplomatic Issues arc some old veteran questions that were running along In diplomatic ttme-kllling fashion when President Harrison turned over the helm of the ship of state to President Cleveland, but the latter In his time and with the best of intentions, and In spite of the most heroic efforts was obliged to vdd to the list and make new Issues of his own that he' was unable to bring to a conclusion before he, in turn, gave way to President McKinley. Foremost and of the greatest interest to the people of the United States, because of the strife that Is being waged under their very eyes is the subject of our relations towards Cuba. For over two years the Insurrection on the ever-faithful isle has gone cn and from the confusion of reports that reach the Department of State it is not possible to accurately and surely ascertain the actual conditions of this struggle, which, as President Cleveland has stated in his messages to Congress, has involved in itself interests of enormous value to citizens of the United States. It is understood to be the policy of the new administration to eleal with this matter deliberately and not 'to undertake to part from the policy with which it has so far been treated until our more important, internal financial affairs are adjusted. Rut the sub, ject is of an explosive nature and it is not safe to predict that through some overt and outrageous act of a subordinate among either the Spanish forceps or in the Insurgent lines (something like the Virginus affair for Instance) the administration will not be forced to depart from its plans and drect its attention at short notice to this elangerous subject. THE HA A'AIIAN QUESTION. One of the Issues that was carried over trom the Harrison administration, but which now stands in very different shape from that it held then, is the subject i of Hawaiian annexation. The citizens of the little island republic have come to look on the Republicans as their friends and making ready in advance for the Inauguration of President McKinley they have begun a carefully prepared agitation to further their ends In Washington. They will seek with the aid of powerful friends In and out of Congress, to induce the President to negotiate a new annexation treaty at the earliest possible moment, and while the desired annexation may be attained in short order If the President approves, to so arrange the eletails of the transaction as to avoid raising unpleasant issues with Great Britain. France and Japan and losing all reputation for consistency will reejuire the exhibition of diplomacy of a high order. With the mother country England our relations are so founded on reasonable and mutual consideration that there is no ground for apprehension that the subjects L pressing for consideration ot tne uipiomatlc agencies will not yield In the end to the usual methods of treatment. This Is fortunate for the welfare of both countries as some of these questions are of the Greatest importance and are easily capable, if treated in that harsh and uncomnromising spirit of becoming the sources of open rupture. Of such is the Alaskan boundary question and the proposed extensions of the regulations for the protection of the seals in Bering sea, in the former of which a treaty has been negotiated for the locatlm of the one-hun-drcd-and-fortv-first meridian, but leaving the most difficult phase, the drawing of the boundary line in the southeast, still subject to negotiations on which some progress has been made. As to the protection of seal life In Bering sea. there are signs of unrest that Indicate a necessity of early and decided action on the part of the State Department. Backed by the highest kind of expert authority, Secretarv Olney said, at the close bf his administration of the State Department: "The fur seal herd is threatened with utter ruin unless some changes are speedily made In the award regulations." Yet he was unable to Induce the British government to make these. Influenced, as It was, by a fear of the adverse effect upon the political status of British Columbia, the home of the seal piTHE ARRITRATION TREATY. As a senator Mr. Sherman has clearly Indicated his wish for the ratification of the general arbitration treaty, and President McKinley's Inaugural address leaves no room for doubt of the administration's policy. Mr. Sherman's Senate record leaves no room to doubt that he will be found resenting sturdily all efforts to surrender our charge of Samoa under the tripartite alliance, which it Is certainly the wish of Germany, but not of Great Britain, to terminate-. The final enactment of the new tariff bill may put a severe strain upon our relations with some of the great European powers, and. first of all. witn Germany. It is understootl to be the intention of Congress to provide for active retaliation upon the nations that have so unjustly barred American meat products and cattle from their markets, and among these Germany is the chief offender. Complaints of the unwholesomeness of our meats have been responded to by the United States by the establishment of the most rigid system of inspection and our challenges to produce evidence" of the charges have resulted in miserable failure on the part of the accusers to make their charges good. A long series of con sular reports make clear the fact that these-. charge are but subterfuge's, and that the real purpose Is to exclude not only American meats, but any and all American products that threaten to compete with German and French, ami Belgian and Dutch agricultural or industrial preducts. Were this sought to be accomplished openly by a tarItf so high as to be exclusive, the United States could not complain, for It might respond In kind, but, as now applied, the prohibitive rules are clearly an unjust discrimination. Secretary Olney also left to his successor as an unpleasant legacy the negotiations looking to an abatement of the restrictive regulations which have choked the life out of the American insurance companies sklng to continue the profitable business they had built up with Germany. What Secretary Sherman will do in this matter cannot be foretold. With France the administration starts unincumbered by diplomatic issues of moment, except in so far as she may be involved with Germany in the settlement of the meat-exclusion question. If, however, the general arbitration treaty with Great Britain should be concluded, it Is confidently expected that France will soon after seek te enter into a similar arrangement with the United States, which can be consummated only with great difficulty, owing to the radical difference between the judicial systems of the two countries. The conditions of Turkey are such as to require the greate-st vigilance and circumspection. Heretofore our efforts have been confined strictly to guarding the interests of American citizens in that country, and it is safe to predict that this policy will be continued, so that there is little prospect of a serious disagreement unless resistance is met to our demands for reasonable indemnity for the pecuniary losses suffered by our people during the Armenian uprisings.

U. LOCAL IMVKHSITV XOT STROMi IX THIS JOINT DKDATK. Compulsory Arbitration In Labor Trouble Wan the Qneiitlon at IMue Negative Side 1'nheld. In point of numbers, the tirst annual debine between the Univrsity.of Indianapolis and Indiana University, last niRht, al Plymouth Church, was a failure, but In point of logic, oratory and gentlemanliness, it was far above the average of college debates. Scarcely one hundred people were present to hear the budding disciples of Lincoln and Douglas, not to speak of Demosthenes and Cicero, discuss their country's good and the people need. But the few gathered together were abundantly pleased with what they heard, even though a home institution was offered up on the oratorical altar. Indiana University won the debate, the decision to that effect being the unanimous verdict of the three judges. The question discussed was: "Affirmed. That a national board of arbitration, with compulsory powers, should le established to settle all disputes between employers and employes. on interstate railroads." Indianapolis had the affirmative and Indiana University the negative of the question. Robert W. Hobbs. Kzra C. Roberts and Ira M. Holmes represented the Indianapolis institution, and Charles W. Iawrence, Ohio L. Reld and Francis B. Sinclair held up the honor of Rioomlngton. Kach sieaker had twe-nty minutes in which to air his views, Mr. Roberts and Mr. Sinclair, who made -the rebuttal for their respective sides, each making an argument of fifteen minutes and speaking five minutes in rebuttal. The judges were Judge John II. Baker, of the Federal Court: Judge T. E. Howard, of the Indiana, Supreme Court, and 4dge D. W. Comstock, of the Indiana Appellate Court. Rev. 'Frederic E. Dewhurst presided over the exercises and called time on the speakers. Robert W. Hobbs was the first speaker for the affirmative. He began by describing the magnitude of the railway system In the United States, and the vast amount of trouble and loss caused when there Is friction between employer and employe. The awful results of strikes arc evidence that some means should be adopted to prevent them before they occur. This means he took to be the establishment of a board of compulsory arbitration. The government, he sale!, must protect Its honor, its stability, its finance, anel the people themselves must be protected from the loss suffered when railway traffic Is lnterrupteel. Other governments, he said, have seen the difference between railroads and other industries, so that twenty-one countries now actually own their own railway systems. While not advocating governmental ownership, he contended that a railroad Is not analagous to any other industry, and should be separately considered. It is by nature a monopoly, he saiel. because It is , superior to competition. Kach region of country depends upon one railroad for transmission of its supplies and products, and in case of a strike on that road all traffic is stopped, in view of these facts, he thought the government should watch and regulate the rallroael business more carefully than other industries. The reform should come at once, he thought, for our circulating system has been often paralyzeel by strikes, and likely to be so again. Remove the cause at once, he advised, and let the blood of commerce flow free. THE NEGATIVE SIDE OF IT. Charles W. Lawrence openel the case for the negative. His argument was clean cut and precise, and his manner carrieel conviction with it. He had his case well In hand and delivered telling blows which his opponents were alike unable to dodge or to return. He asserted that the affirmative speaker had not properly defined compulsory arbitration, and that so far as anything they had heard was concerned, the audience might be in absolute ignorance of what was being discussed. He then proceeded to outline the difference between concilatlon. voluntary arbitration, and compulsory arbitration. He took It for granted that his audience, together with his colle-agues. were In favor of arbitration, but undertook to convince those of his hearers whe. through public spirit, thought themselves In full accord with the affirmative side of the question, that they did not favor complusory arbitration, but rather conciliation or voluntary arbitration. The only method of settling differences between employer and employe, he thought, was by harmonizing lalor and capital and not by a pet remedy concocte-d by a theorist. Worklngmen do not want compulsory arbitration, he said, stockholders do not want It, and the dependent public would reap no practical benefit from it; wh ?re, then. Is the value? "Rring your plan do'vn out of the clouds." said he. "and set It jn earth. Let us see a practical working of it, and then we will conce-ele that you have at least done something." Ezra C. Roberts came next for Indianapolis. He spoke eloquently and fast in support of his views and gained several rounds of applause. He held that railroads receive their power from the government, they are a part of the national exitenee, and they owe certain dutles to the public. If. at the time of a strike, they are unable to perform these duties, then it Is the duty of the government to create some method by which th people shall not suffer in consequence. Voluntary arbitration, he said, does not prevent striken, because the parties te the dispute are not always willing to resort to It. Conciliation Is of no force unless backed up by compulsion. Men are ready for conciliation when they know that unless they so settle their elifficulties a powerful board of arbitration will take the matter in hand. With regard to the enforcement of its rulings, he held that a board of arbitration, properly established, could enforce Its decisions as well as any other court. A LETTER FROM SOVEREIGN. Ohio L. Reld came next for Rioomlngton. He scored a hit at once by nourishing a letter from J. R. Sovereign, setting forth the Knights of Labor view of the question. The affirmative had citel C. D. Wright in support of their view, but Sovereign stood the other side In good stead.' Mr. Reld held that the Inevitable result of a hoard of compulsory arbitration would be to take from each man his right to say far whom

All that the government Itself can Fay to the railroads, he said. l.. "run your road m as not to Interfere with interstate-commerce, or forfeit your charter." The proposed board of arbitration is to go further even than the government, and say, "run your road thus and so. or we will make you. whether or no." We need no metre law on the subject, he thought, but a better enforcement of th existing laws. Ira Holmes closed the argument for the aflirmatlve. His remarks were humorous and lie scored several grod points In a elry. sarcastic manner that took well with the audience. His chief contention was that it is not the object of th? proxsed hoard to settle strikes after they occur, but to prevent their ejecurrence. Railroads, he said, have not the Inherent right of private Industries; they receive from the gAvernrnr nt their right to live, and should be dealt with accordingly. liUir and capital disagreed, he said, chiefly because neither understands the circumstances which surround the other. As a eemsoquence each refuses to treat except upon its own terms. But the beard of arbitration would compel them to treat, and the resulting decision would b based on disinterestedness and justice. Francis R. Sinclair -poke last for the negative. His remarks were directed to th phase of practicability. He showed bow compulsory arbitration would fail to. reach sympathetic strikes, because. In such a strike, the quatlon of difference is teyond the jurisdiction of the loard. Then, he said, there was nothing said as to when this board of arbitration should Ktep In and that It was not a preventer of the causes which lead up to strikes. His complaint was that the affirmative had come with a theory anel left to their opponents the, statement of all details. Mr. Roberts anel Mr. Sinclair each spoke five minutes in rebuttal and the judges made their decision as u Irenes y told, giving to Bloomington the honors.

For seventeen years I have suffered. Periods were so very painful that I would have to go to the doctor every month. lie said that I had an enlargement of the womb, and told my husband that I must undergo an operation, as tumors in the womb, and it was a case of life or death. I was operated upon twice, but it did not seem to do me any I good, it made mc very weak. I was troubled with the leu corrhoca a great deal. I also suffered with the sick headache, vomiting spells, backache all the time, terrible pain in my left side, chills, loss of appetite, and could not sleep nights. After taking several bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, some Liver Pills, and using your Sanative Vash, I recovered. I can eat well, and every one that sees me tells mc I am a different person. : I can do all my own work, sleep well and feel wclL I am growing stronger every day, and am able to go out and enjoy a walk and not feci all tired out when I return, as I used to. I doctored for sixteen years, and in all those years I did not feel as well as I do at the present time. I wish that every woman that is troubled as I was, would try that medicine. Oh! it is so good to feel well, and it is all owing to Mrs. Pinkham's kind advico and medicine. Mrs. James Coreioax, 234 Center St, Jamaica Plain, Mass.
