A NEEDED PROTECTION WLL STheblU recently lntrodooed in the Unite! States Senate, which seeks to! protect the President, Vice President, or any officer In the of succession to these offices; which also seeks the pro tection of all foreign rulers or chief magistrates, from persons In this conn try, Is a much needed piece of National legislation. And If also there might be a bill against those persons who By speech or publication seek to promote their anar chical theories, and thus influence others to destroy lives and property, anch legislation would prove of inesti mable value, For It is theQoldmansnd Hosts who cause the acts of incendiarism and as sassination to be committed, for "No one but madman would fling about Are, And say that I did It la Bporf hi And In connection with lues dingers of lire, who incite others to deeds of crime. It Is of interest to recall the words of Judge Gary, who sentenced, the Chi cago Hay market anarchists In the fol lowing words. "The law holds each man responsible for the natural and probable -eonsequen ens of his own acts. It holds that who ever advises murder is himself guilty of the murder that is committed pursuant to bis advise. Each man has the full right to entertain and advocate by speech and print such opinions as suit himself, and the great body of people will usually care Utile what he says, but if he proposes murder as a means of en forcing them he puts his own life at stake, and no clamor about free speech or evils to be cured or wrongs to be re dressed will shield him from tbe conse quence of his crime. His liberty is not a license to destroy." $100 Reward,;$ioo. The readers oftDis" psper'wlll be pleased to learn that there la at least one dreaded disease that science . has been able to cure in all Its stsges and that is Catarrh. Ball's Catarrh Cure is the only positive enre now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitution al disease, requires a constitutional treat ment. Hall's Catarrh Curs Is taken in ternally, acting directly upon U.e .blood and mucous surfaces of tbe system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving tbe patient strength by building up the constitution and as sisting nature In doing its work.

Weakness not properly attended to, together with the close confinement at my desk brought on nervous prostration, so much go that for a yoar I doctored continually. I tried different remedies which only succeeded in poisoning my system, and myatomach refused food. A neighbor who had suffered with ovarian troubles and was perfectly cured, called my attention to your Vegetal) le Compound, and I made up my mind to arive it a two months' fair trial. However, before one month had .passed I was like a new woman, and after sis weeks faithful use of the Compound I was in perfect health. It certainly is of great benefit to women, and I wish every poor suffering woman could have a chancfrto try it Yours very truly, Miss W. Chjxds Blackburn, 2922 Fifth Ave, Rock Island, 111." Nothing; will relieve this distressing condition so surely as Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound; it soothes, strengthens, heals and tones up the delicate female organism. It is a positive cure for all kinds of female com plaints : that bearing down feeling, backache, displacement of the womb, inflammation of the ovaries and ia Invaluable during the change of life. How Mrs. Pinkham helped Jlrs. Borst "Dear Mm. Pixkham: When I wrote to. you some time ago for advice I really thought my days wore numbered. I was so ill that I could not stand on my foet for fifteen minutes at a time. I had female troubles in many of their worst forms ; inflammation and ulceration of the womb ; leucorrhcea ; bearing down pains ; hcadacho and backache ; nervoai prostration. My kidneys were out ot order and blood in a bad condition. Everyone, and even my doctor thought I was going into consumption. I followed your advice faithfully for six months with the result that I Iwcamo a well woman, and it cost me much less than a doc tor's bill. I foci that Lydla E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound saved my Ufa." Mas. Samuel Borst, 7 Cozy Ave., Oneonta, N. V. The above letter shows how unerring is the advice which Mrs. Pinkham gives to women who write her about thoir sickness ; as the advice is free and always helpful it is not strange that she advises more than one hundred thousand sick women every year.
