RUSSIA MD JAPS ON

But Thia Report Is Denied—No Ques

Russia’s Proposals—Russia
Said To Be Seeking

London, December 19.—A special dis
patch from Tien Tsin says it Is reported
that Japan has sent an ultimatum to
Russia.
The report is not confirmed from any
source up to 6 o'clock this evening. It
is regarded aS Improbable that such news
should first come from Tien Tsin.
In reply to an Inquiry of an Associat
ed Press correspondent, in regard to the
reaort from Tien Tsin that Japan had
sent an ultimatum to Russia, Baron
Hayashi, the Japanese minister to Great
Britain, said:
"An ultimatum has not been sent."

no relief except when doctois ;;ave morphine.

I that would give 1 lief, resist it? I knew it

marks, Mr. Bailey referred to the recent

•Mr. Sl’oouer contended that all revenue

of repres ntathes, and said that In? -lid
int sei how Mr Lodge could reconcile
his bill for the free admission ot hides
with this requirement.
Mr Jloar did not agree with Mr.
Spooner that tho in-esident nnd the sen
ate c-iiild not make treaties - -s otfng the
revenue without tho os-sent of the house
of r'-;n?-?-nt.-.tlv"s. Tie did not. however,
believe in ilie policy of treaties affecting
i)i tariff and cent- idi d that direct legis
lation w tasier of accomplishment than
the i x-fhang" of treaties.
Bailey Warns Republicans.
-Mr. 1 title;,' diseu: i .-?.'il at some length
tlm attitude of the democratic senators
against tlie reciprocity provision of the
McKinley law and in doing so, said h-»
desired that democrats should think alike
nnd vote alike mid not bo like their re
publican colleagues, who, because of the
necessity of supporting an administra
tion, were eompell-.-d to vote first and
think afterwards. lie confessed, how
ever. that the rep-lilleiu party had nut
been alone In that respect, for democrats
had done tlie sum thing.
"BuL" he adued turning towards tho
repo .'lican side o: the chamber, "you
will hereafter get ao senators from the
while house flora this side of the cham
ber, you'll have > take care of your
st Ives in the futu-c.”
This statement was accepted as a di
rect reference to the decision of tho
democratic caucus to stand as a unit on
all measures agi ed upon by a two
thirds vote of the caucus and aroused
quick interest.
"In some way or anotlier, the repub
lican senators li -e been able to unite
on measures witi, mt a party resolution,
and when a man bolted, be was shot
on the spot. Tl, y have carried party
discipline to the ; »int of abject submis
sion; we have pin tied our course to tiie
point of insubordination. Now, I say
that in the futur- wnen your measures
are right, you will have the solid demo
cratic vote; if .mu are not right, we
will oppoffe you.”
Addressing the epublican side of the
chamber and leaning far over the aisle
towards the republican senators, most
of whom were in their seats and giving
him their closest attention, Mr. Bailey
sa id:
"1 don’t wonder that you look wor
ried. You will get no help from us. Yon
have been getting it. and always have
been able to find some one over here
who was willing to make mi honorable
exe< Tition, to us the language of the
senator from Wisconsin, and vote for
anything you might ask them to vote
for. But you wlil get no more of our
votes.”
He concluded this feature of his ad
dr- ss by asking t,> be pardoned for pub
licly rejoicing ovr-r a prospect of party
unity, and explained that his present at
titude must be explained !”■ hl.- great
disappointment over the lack of unitv
In the recent past. He believed that with,
a return to tho conditions before the
war. the party would return to its suc
cesses of that time.

Flowers in the Old Garden.
WOMAN’S RESPONSE TO NATURE.
No tnan will deny that woman’s wind is more
imarinative and more appreciative of the beau,
ties of nature than man’s. Most women love
the flowers, the woods, the trees, and every
thing that is beautiful in nature,
"A perfect woman nobly planned.
To warn, to comfort and command.
Nature never intended that women should sttf
fer from physical disabilities at certain periods,
and too often women feel that the great distress
they suffer at these periods is only natural.
The fact is the women who live in the op’-n air
and do physical labor are little troubled by fr.e
pains and ills that our delicate, house-oom
women suffer. At any rate, nature provides ,i
cure for these ills of womenkind in the wav - r
a vegetable compound, made only of roots and
herbs, without the use of a particle of alcohol
or any narcotic. Hr. Pierces I-avoiite t.
scription is a womanlv tonic that lias -.old mor"
largelv in the United States than any other
compound prescribed only for tlie dis-.-a e c <
women. Dr. R. V. Pierce, the well- known
specialist, is chief of the Invalids Hotel and
Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, N. Y.
The womauly system is a delicate machine
which can only be compared to the intricate
mechanism of a beautiful watch that will keep
in good running order only with good care an :
proper oiling at the right time. This prevents the
delicate mechanism from being wor n out. \ery
many times young women get old or run aov. n
before their time, through ignorance and t; e
improper handling of this human mecl an.sm.
Mental depression, a confused head, bach-iche,
headache, and many symptoms of derange
meat of the womanly system can be avoided
Go to the source of the trouble anti correct ti?
irregularity. The drains on the womanly r =.
tern and the other symptoms di. appear. This
can be done easily and intelligently.
The correctness of this advice is amply pro-.' n
by the experience of many thou - '.lid-- of won"
a large number of whom have written < ' .
experiences. So sure of it is the World - I.)i -
pensary Medical Association, the proprietor? ■
