XT. TL3TE.LTO/I. ment of Mrs. Lucile McElroy \ Laurel, Miss.In a letter from this place, Mrs. Lucile McElroy says: "I was sick for three years, \ylth backache, headache, pains in my stomach and back, low down. At times, 1 could not do a thing, 1 was so weak. After 1 was married, I thought I would try C&rdul, the woman’s tonic, and afjter using two .or three bottles, I couldn’t tell one day from another—-felt good all the time. 1 not only still use Cardui, but advise every lady I think need* it, Ao give it a trial, and several whom I have per* •uaded, say they have obtained great re lief. Another good thing l have notioed about Cardui, Is that it fills out hollows under the eyei, whfeh are sunken as if from a bad spell of sickness. It fieshens up a woman's eyes, and make them look bright and plump. Many a woman would be pretty if it were not for her sunken- in ©yes. I believe that Cardui, the woman’s tonic, is the only treatment for women.” Do you suffer from womanly trouble? If so. give Cardui, the woman’s tonic, a trial. ^ Judging from the experience of a mil lion other women who have been bene fited by this remedy, it should surely do you good. N.

WII»on Chemical Co. f Dept. 152, Tyrone, Pa. THE IMPEACHMENT OF A JUDGE. The senate of the United States pro nounced judgment recently on a man who for nearly thirty years has held some of the vey highest offices of the country* He misused his power and office for per sonal gain. He betrayed a higli trust, and after a long trial and a magnificent defense, he was pronounced guilty by the senate and stripped of an office that paid him $9,000 a year, and is for ever disqualified from holding any office of honor or trust. He was a distinguished judge in Penn sylvania for a long time, was a federal district judge for a long time, and was twice appointed by presidents to a place on the commerce court—a most distin guished position of honor. He has retired from the senate a dis honored man—and his son carried him the news, g.fter the first fatal verdict, into a small committee room, where his faithful* wife attended him, in that try ing hour. Can you imagine anything more af flicting to a proud man’s heart, or more disheatening to those who loved him and suffered with him? If he had been a man of high ideals he would have sunk under the load, but then no man of high ideals would have thus disqualified himself for holding places of high trust andj official honor. There have .been only a very few* per sons thus arraigned before the senate and denounced by the house of repre sentatives. Only two judges have been thus disfranchised, until Judge Robert ^chbald was found guilty. It was a most disagreeable task for the men engaged in the prosecution and the jury of senators which condemned him. The greed of gold worked his ruin. And it was no great amount—couldn’t be to a person drawing $9,000 per annum —that brought him to disgrace—when we see the amounts were painfully small compared to his previous salaries. He was doubtless a grafter for a long time. Such a man, so highly honored, did not. perhaps, succumb to the first temp tation, and his long stay on the bench would indicate that he r was on ’Easy street” with the railroads for a long time. T saw a good deal of the Belknap im peachment trial in 1876. I can hardly realize that it was thirty-six years ago when it happened. General Belknap was General Grant’s secretary of war, and he had the ap pointment of what were called post traders for the army out on the fron tiers. These post-traders sold supplies to the soldiers, and as they were few in number, they made fortunes very rap idly. All went along smoothly for a couple of years, but the extravagant prices charged to enlisted men aroused con siderable talk. A man named Marsh got a post-trad- ership and he sublet it to another man. wno was overheard to say he was obliged to sell at high prices because he had to pay Marsh $12,000 a year and that Marsh said he had to pay some body else, “higher up,” etc., etc. To make a long story short, Marsh and his wife turned state’s evidence, and ^aid that Mrs. Belknap collected that money regularly, and when pressed for proof, ishowed the bank checks which passed between them with Mrs. Belknap’s indorsement. It created a perfect storm of excite ment in Washington. Mrs. Belknap was a magnificent hostess and well known. Many days did I attend that trial in the senate, and I became very familiar with such proceedings. General Belknap resigned before a vote was ordered, and his adherents said he was entirely innocent; that it was his wife: but I didn't believe it. If he had been awake at all he knew some thing about that flush of money. He was acquitted on the plea that he was only a private citizen after he re signed, hut it dishonored him and the family disappeared from public notice. T am sorry for Mrs. Archbald. It Is a dreadful ending to a gorgeous public display in* high places. BLOODSHED PEACE IN VERSUS SERVIA. The armistice in the Balkaans has failed to produce peace. They prefer to fight it out. Ijt does seem horrible to me to know that human beings are so bloodthirsty that they are willing to stand up and be shot at rather then forego the privi lege of shooting at the other fellows. It seems to be running into a ca,lled religious war—the CTreek church with the Moslems—the Greek church months ago when four Christian nations declared war against the Ottoman; but ’t^geems that the Roman Catholics, who are always opposed to the Greek church ire now unwilling to see the Turkish •soldiers defeated or put down. In the meantime this war murder Toes on and the efforts to secure peace during the late amnesty apears to be fatally defeated. The homes of innocent, dependent and helpless people are ravaged, and deso lated. The troops suffer under cold and hardships. The wounded are dragged into field hospitals, and the' dead ar* pushed into shallow trinches. AND FOR WHAT? In truth, war is hat Gen. Sherman said it was, nearly fifty years ago. It never changes as to Its horror, its cruelty and its destruction.

NEW YORK, Jan. 18.—Monday morning 20,000 women and girls who have been lighting for increased wages, shorter hours and better work ing conditions in the dress and waist factories of New York, will return to their work—victorious. This was the confident statement of the union leaders tonight, after one of the stormiest days in the strike. It should have been & day of peace, but following the announcement that a protocol had been signed, ending the strike, with the demands of the work ers granted, some ten thousand of the workers bolted from halls where meet ings had been called and announced that they would not abide by the terms of the agreement. At union headquarters tonight it was stated that this uprising was due to agitators and to the failure of the' for eign workers to understand the mean ing of the agreement. According to the terrps of the pro tocol signed by the representatives of the. union and the Dress and Waist Manufacturers’ associations the work ers are granted an increase in wages of from 15 to 33 1-3 per cent; fifty hours is to constitute a week’s work: to be reduced to forty-eight hours within one year. The improvement of the sanitary conditions of the shops is granted and ample protection is granted against fire. * Another provision in the 1 protocol is that Louis D. Brandies, Hamilton Holt and Morris Hiliquist, who now consti tute a permanent board of arbitration in the cloak industry, will be asked to serve in a like capacity for the dress and waist industry^ Although the 20,000 workers employ ed by the association manufacturers will return to their work, between 12,- 000 and' 15,000 woipen and girls in the same industry, but employed in “independent” shops, will continue the fight to the end.

Candler All over the United States concerted efforts are being made to correct "the social evil” and close the houses of shame in the cities. It is the outcome of an advancing conscientiousness in the land with reference to legalized im moralities. From one of the most important cit ies in the union came a press dispatch some days ago concerning the crusade against vice in that city. It was occu- cupied exclusively with tilling how one preacher of all the ministers in the city favored “the segregation of vice” in ’’red light” districts. This dispatch was printed under this “scare-head” caption: 'Preacher Favors Segregated Vice.” The whole thing showed how the press correspondent, who sent the dispatch, and the telegraph editor, who perhaps wrote the head-line, were alike sur prised by the position of this lone preacher, who takes the wrong side of the ziuestion. They sought to make a sensation of the case because they ev- identity felt it would surprise the public, as much as it surprised them; an-i in this view concerning the pub lic’s surprise they were correct. The case presents a significant surprise from which w-holesome instruction may be drawn by a little meditation. Why were these men and others sur prised by the position taken by . the preacher in the matter? For no other reason that it was felt to be out of keeping with the character of a minis ter of the gospel. Men of all shades of opinion, from the holiest to the vilest persons in the community, feel that it is inconsistent with ministerial char acter to compromise with sin in any form. 4 It is quite true that a certain number of men in every community are dispos ed to applaud a preacher whose moral sentiments are lax an<} whose pulpit utterances \arc locfse, but in their hearts they do not hold him in the highest es teem. They will call him to banquets, invite him to clubs somewhat off color in moral character, or elect him chap lain to some irreligious order or secular institution, but when sore trial comes to them, or when death stares them in the face, they do not want him, and at such times he does not want to be with them. A more religious type of preach er is desired wheh issues, too serious to be compromised and too inevitable to be ‘ evaded, are involved. When a man finds himself in a situation where trif ling is out of the question, he does not care to call to his aid a clerical trifler. Worldly preachers (save the mark! but there are worldly preachers!) should stop long enough from the engage ments of their worldly lives to consid- her why worldly men pet them and make muci) of them In days of ease and do not desire their presence In hours of anguish. A due consideration of the fact might lead some of them to re nounce the low position of clerical arbitors to worldly sinners, and re sume the high position of ambassadors of God, from which they have fallen. In the courts of royalty in former times there was one called “the king’s fool;” his rank was not high, although he feasted at his sovereign’s table and was praised for his wit; he was never called to counsels in which wise states men considered the serious matters of the kingdom, but was used for purposes of amusement only. He was quite as useful as is the preacher who suffers himself to be made the pfaything of worldly men, and who plays the part of liberalist for the worldly patronage he may win thereby His office was ex actly on the level of these pulpits in which sorry pulpit-wares are exhibited as i..e marketable stuff which worldly men seek when providing for the pleas ures of an idle hour! But how im- measureably below the plane of a mes senger of God is such a level! The significant . surprise disclosed in this press dispatch sheds light on the questiop o£ what is the right way to deal with that putrescent evil called “the social evil”. It shows that even men of the world know perfectly well that there is but one logical and sound position to take on the question, and, that is that this evil must be abso lutely extirpated. It is worse than idle to talk about compromising with wanton wickedness; and the time is not far off when any such proposal will be looked back upon as the base and cow ardly standard of a licentious era. When that nobler period, which has already opened, has fully come, the polygamy of the unspeakable , Turk will be con sidered no more disreputable than a pro posal for civil authorities to segregate unlawful vice and leave it to work its purulent iniquity in polluted districts. The posterity of $hen, who now apolo gize for such segregation, in that bet ter time'which is at hand will be per plexed to know how to excuse the base position of the4r unworthy ancestors who affect “broadness” in our day in order to win the plaudits of this present evil world. There is no better way to propagate vice than to adopt a policy with refer ence to it based on the idea that vice is a necesiary evil. Such a policy upon the part of civil authorities is a con fession of both. It says to the dwellers in the “red light” districts, “Your fes tering vice is stronger,than the mighty arm of the law”. Municipal and state authorities would better say nothing than to say that to the immoral elemtns; for it is to establish them in the dis tricts where they haye set up their nefarious dens and to encourage, them to carry their wickedness^ into any other district which they may find it conven ient or profitable to enter. Moreover, the segregation of vice in one district spreads dreadful Immoralities and fes tering diseases to every other part of a city. The population of the polluted districts must be constantly replenish ed; and all the streams of the “white slave traffic” flow into the foul pools of the “red light region” in order to keep them full. Segregated vice is con centrated and aggressive vice. It secretes pus which conveys blood-poison to the whole social system. The apologists of segregated vice pose as friends of virtue and very “prac tical men”; but if they are really sin cere in their professions of desire to promote and protect virtue, a more im practicable, pur-blind lot never lived. The policy for which they" stand had fair trial for many,, many years in all lands; what has been the out-come of it? In Paris and Tokio it has had the fullest and fairest trial; yet heathen Japan has found it impracticable and loathesome. The “red light” districts of Paris and Tokio smell to heaven and shame the enormities of Babylon and the excesses of Sodom. Let us hear no more of the practicability of segregating vice with a view to extirpating or lim iting it; one might as well talk of ex tirpating snakes by establishing a viper farm. The truth is that whenever any evil is licensed by civil authority, formally or informally, it is effectually propaga ted. The prohibition of vice may be difficult, but it becomes more and more easy of enforcement with every added day; while the licensing of sin tends aljvays to greater excess of iniquity. There are counties in Georgia in which the sale of intoxicating liquors was prohibited full forty years ago; in those counties prohibition was at the first somewhat hard to enforce; but *now the prohibitory law is more perfectly en forced in those counties than is any .oth er penal statute. A generation has grown up which never khew the open saloon and a public opinion has been made whjch is all-controlling in its pow er. On the other hand, there are other counties where ’ the leaders of public opinion have assumed that prohibition was impracticable, and’those counties are^ filled with all sorts of lawless ness. The advocates of saloons have protested all the time ; that they wished the liquor-shops closed, and that just as soon as public opinion would sup port prohibition they would favour its adoption; but meanwhile their method has constantly created sentiment in fa vour of the open saloon and against all forms of prohibition. Men and com munities can “taper on” to the use of liquors and the indulgence of all forms of vice; but they can not “taper off” from such indulgences. The only way to be rid of sin is to quit it right now. For many years after the war between the States the American people were very generally agreed that the resump tion of specie payments was the cur rency policy which should be adopted; but the leaders dilly-dallied and said, “We ought to resume specie payments, but we do not know how.” Finally a strong, wise, brave man said, “The way to resume is to resume”; and it was done. Whereupon tne nation settled ddwn to business on a firm foundation. In like manner the way to stop vice is to stop it. The thing is too simple for argument; and nc* man will argue about it who has not hid away somewhere in hiA perverted brain the vile heresy that some sins are necessary—a base, cow ardly notion 'which makes virtue a matter of mere convenience rather ^han of inviolable conviction. The penal code of Georgia and the codes of all the commonwealths of Christendom outlaw that crime which in fects the “red light” districts in which some purpose to segregate vice. For municipal authorities to seek to create, allow or protect such districts is noth ing short of lawlessness upon the part of men sworn to support law and paid to enforce it. Such a caurse is a shame less departure from personal integrity and infamous perfidy to official obli gation. Who gave municipal authorities the right to nullify state laws? The way to stop the “social evil” by law is to enforce law. That is the pol icy of our criminal code, which is not a code for private interpretation and local application. There is not a man in all Georgia who will dare stand up in either house of the General Assembly and propose the repeal of the laws against fornication and adultery. That which none will dare to repeal, let no man repudiate. Nothing can be worse than the nullification of law under the plea that the lawless elements are stronger than sovereign states and the decent elements of society. Law-abid ing and self-respecting communities can not afford to submit to the licen tious decrees of the immoral elements. In the long run they will not submit to such degrading and demoralizing domination. Let all concerned mark this observation and lay it to heart. Miss Gould Follows Mrs. Astor; Limits Trousseau to $1,000 NEW YORK, Jan. 18.—Although one of the richest women in America, Helen Miller Gould will confine the expense of her wedding trousseau within $1,000, The latter figure was that set by Mad eline Forde, now th e widow of Col.

W. C. Jones, of Col lege Park, lies at the Grady hospital with his tongue bitten in half and suf fering intense agony. When the injured man was first placed on the operating table he was unconscious. Later he regained hiS senses but was unable to talk enough even to give his name. Several stitches were necessary to sew- his tongue to gether. Mr. Jones had recovered suffi ciently from the shock at 10 o’clock to utter a few words and will not ‘lose his power of *speech as was at first feared. As well as could be, undertsood, he was driving the car when a wagon, with two negroes in it, came out of a side street directly in his path. It was too late to stop, he declared, and the col lision occurred, badly damaging the ma chine and breaking up the wagon.
