jB WAS IRREGULAR.
Z I suffered for three years with
irregular menses, and in connec-
tion with this trouble I had whites
? and frequent chills. I was con-
fined to my bed a great deal and
at times my suffering was fearful.
I was .treated by several different physicians but they were
unable to reach my trouble. I was advised by some of my
friends to try G. F. P., which I did, and in three days from
the time I began usin^ it I was greatly relieved and felt that
I was steadily improving, and after taking a few bottles I
am now in better health than ever before in my life. G.F.P,
is a grand medicine and every suffering woman ought to

A. new catarrh cure has recently ap-
peared which so far as tested has been
remarkably successful in curing all forms
of catarrh, whether in the head, throat,
bronchial tubes, or in stomach and liver.
The remedy is in tablet form, pleasant
and convenient to take, and no special se-
crecy is maintained as to what it contains,
the tablet being a scientific combination
of Blood root, Red gum and similar valu-
able and harmless antiseptics.
The safe and effective catarrh cure
may be found at any drug store under the
name of Stuart’s Catarrh Tablets.
Whether the catarrh is located in the
nose, throat, bronchial tubes, or stom-
ach, the tablets Seen! to act with equal
success, removing the stuffy feeling in
head and nose, clearing the mucous mem-
brane of throat and. trachea from catar-
rhal secretions, which cause the tickling,
coughing, hawking and gagging
noying to every catarrh sufferer.
Nasal catarrh generally leads to ulcer-
ation, in some cases to such an extent as
to destroy the nose entirely and in many
old cases of catarrh the bones of the head
become diseased. Nasal catarrh gradu-
ally extends to the throat and bronchial
tubes and very often to the stomach,
causing that very obstinate trouble, ca-
tarrh of the stomach.
Catarrh is a systematic poison, inherent
in the blood, and local washes, douches,
salves, inhalers and sprays can have no
effect on the real cause of the disease.
An internal remedy which acts upon the
blood is the only rational treatment, and
Stuart’s Catarrh Tablets is the safest of
all internal remedies, as well as the most
convenient and satisfactory from a med-
ical standpoint.
Dr. Easton recently stated that he had
successfully used Stuart’s Catarrh Tablets
in old chronic cases, even where ulcera-
tion had extended so far as to destroy the
septum of the nose. He says: ‘“I am
pleasantly surprised almost every day
by the excellent results from Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets. It is remarkable how ef-
fectively they remove the excessive secre-
tion and bring about a healthy condition
of the mucous membranes of the nose,
throat and stomach.”
All druggists sell complete treatment
of the Tablets at 50 cents and a little book
giving the symptoms and causes of the
various forms of catarrh will be mailed
free by addressing F. A. Stuart Co., Mar-
shall, Mich.

SAM GORDON, 29th and H.
The Tribune heartily seconds the
suggestion of the Labor council that
the city commission purchase a sand
pump and put it to work filling lots
and streets or furnishing material to
the people. This will not interfere
with any plans the engineer's may pre-
sent, but will supplement them. Get-
ting above high water is what the
people are resolved upon and sooner
or later they will accomplish it. One
pump would not do much in one
month, hut it could be kept going over
a peiriod of years and do vast things
in the aggregate. Protection is not a
matter of months anyhow, but a mat-
ter of years.
New York, N. Y.,

less something unforeseen occurs to cause
delay, the first electric train will be run
on New Year’s day on the Second avenue
line. A formal announcement is expected
today from Vice President Skitt, who is
in charge of the arrangements for the
event. A single motor car made a test
run over the line yesterday and everything
is reported in readiness for the change
from steam power to electricity. The other
lines will be changed within the next
six months. The total cost of the im-
provements is estimated at ^8,000,000.

Now, every suffering woman in America has her sympathy and
Capt. Parker, one of Admiral
Schley’s attorneys, makes the state-
ment that the Maryland delegation
will introduce a bill in congress mak-
ing an appropriation to pay the ad-
miral’s., expenses in the late trial and
retiring him on. full pay.
This is the most sensible and practi-
cal proposition that has yet. been sub-
mitted for congressional action. It
■will be a substantial compensation
and a sufficient vindication. Congress
■can not reverse the verdict of the
court. It can not give Schley the
prize money which the courts have
awarded to Sampson. But it can make
th’s positive expression of opinion and
gratitude, and the country will be
fairly satisfied.
This action will not affect the navy
organization in any manner except to
rebuke indirectly, but severely, the
Long-Crowninshield cabal. It will put
them on notice that 'they have gone to
the limit, and it will be a wholesome
lesson for the future.
And this is about the least that con-
gress could do. The treatment of
Schlej by the navy clique and the
■president is infamous, and the branch
of the .government which represents
the sovereign people should not let it
pass unchallenged.
