I attended part ies and receptions thinly clad, and would be suddenly chilled, but I did mot, think of the results. I caught a bad cold eighteen months ago while menstruating, and this caused inflam mation of the womb and congested «wrarios. I suffered excruciating pains and kept getting worse. My attention van called to your Vegetable Com pound and the wonderful cures it had performed, and I made up my mind to try it for two months aril see what it would do for me. W5thin one month I felt much better, and at the close of the second I was entirely well. «■ 1 have advised a number of my lady friends bo use i •i s;,i r;ii -‘-nr r themselves as well i u.i’r-d V.'iLh ' ;3 results as I was.

A Washington special says: That an investigation of the postoffice de partment by the house of represen tatives will resuit from the publication of the report involving members of congress in that connection, was indi cated by every expression possible short of a vote in that body Wednes day. With a whirlwind of protest the report was taken up by indignant members, their personal connection with it explained and epithets hurled at Fourth Assistant Postmaster Gen eral Bristow. “The Bristow report was conceived in iniquity, born in sin and has trav eled its course until it has struck the public of the United States as a great attack upon a body of men as free from wrong doing, corruption, crime and irregularity as any equal number of men on the face of the earth. >> Th j s was the parting shot of Represent ab Grosvenor, of Ohio, in paying his hte to the report. «i That document is the production of a liar and a scoundrel,” shouted Representative Hill, of Connecticut, on making an explanation of his connec tion with certain leases. He added that he should vote to investigate him self and also the fourth assistant postmaster general. Overstreet Defends Members. “Theie h nothing in any of it to impugn hny improper motive or con duct upon any u. -fiber of the house,” was the expression f Chairman Over street, cf he commid e who combat ted the idea of ar- investigation. Mr. \yiiliams, the democratic leader, 1 urged a complete investigation the ex wbo* ^office department and ie ceivc-u 'Jj? hearty applause of both sides of tBe 'bc^SK^ud the galleries, which h ^,.|U Ied a ring the discussion, it whfiS®^ gPbeen j^md that the two hours allotted to the subW wasll going to be near enough |lme t( he personal explana tlons wliibh mi Irs were demanding the right to make, and a motion to ex tend rfie debate until 4 o'clock Thurs i day aftij jfDn was -carried with vim. Mr. Sept proposed a postpone ment JI e discussion until Monday in order to give'the members more time. Mr. Hay, of Virginia; Mr. Fin ley, 0 f South Carolina, and others op posed postponement. Mr. Hepburn, republican, of Iowa, said that an investigation of the post oiiiefc department would not elicit any facts not brought out by the commit tee report. “I say «n investigation would elicit further fact^and that these facts have ■ been suppressed,” retorted William Adder SicUV amid loud applause trom I the floor and galleries. As to the Hay resolution, Mr. Wil liams said it did not touch the ques tion “that somebody at the postoffice department has somehow included m the report the name of man after man in the house of representatives and m the senate guilty of apparent wron a nr t guilty of no violation of any law, j guilty of no moral obliquity, guilty o f nothing that bears even the tinge ot criminality.” “What was the motive of it?” he vigorously inquired. “Wasn’t it to give the congress notice that the department held something over con gress and that congress had better let the department alone?” he inquired, his words be'ng drowned by applause from both sides. Mr. Cooper, of Wisconsin, declared that President Roosevelt had directed, the prosecution of members of his own party. Mr. Moon, of Tennessee, facing the republican side, said: These thieves being yours and not ours, it is for you, not us, to say if they shall have your protection. y» POISONED SELF AND WHOLE FAMILY.

The story of the Servian jewels must recall to the ex-Empress Eu j genie her own experiences w-hen the 1 waves first began to dash about her throne. She determined to sell the greater part of her jewels in hope to I do something to save the dynasty. Publiciity had to be avoided, and a market was not to be found in Eu i rope, newly thrilled by the horrors I of Sedan. The Empress looked to the East for a market. An English | man was on his way home for a holi day. A telegram at Bombay awaited him from one of the greatest Eur^* j pean financial houses and informed j him of the determination of the Em press. The difficulty had been to find J a man with sufficient influence to be able to approach the princes of In dia in secret with a view to selling them the jewels. Not less hard was i it to lay hands on the man who had moral strength sufficient to carry with j 1 j m surr 3 ptitiously hundreds of thou san( j s of pounds’ worth of jewels in lands where the Queen’s writ did not run, and where the protection of the constable is not immediately avail able. i j Every cara had been taken to in sure secrecy. The jewels had been taken to pieces; the gems removed j from “jointed” their to admit settings; of their the latter j holding and bein^ worn around the waist of ■ their bearer in a belt of soft leather. i Yhc Englishman put on the belt, armed himself with a trusty revolver, engaged a trusty awf set -9rth on hIs miS3ion - ^ or three at-tltlia | * lver wanr The ^ ersc ^ respoMiofUty over road, rail of %nd his - I trust, the tl constant <laagerj?f : ? ry ’ th ® dlfficulty .J f ' U * P< f ms °*u 4 * | t o ' ldll At"last ^ | succc , ssfuL xho j 3W( o 3 ware 30 a _ rince who % theip prope^of'a tl r^ mnrr for that they distressed W* <**’4 have bosn Do-eA.kJ'|l®L ti e matter but tae iaal .• Bf ; k;har Ted t.h e un - certaking^ an courage a kdliii, wortp conditions hich ’merit A’gril a story or’commerci i j regard of enterpris^ personaS» >?$'■ ; exciting k to make popular not —St. - James Gazette. ■ NOT IN' PINING.
