A woman who is sick and suffering, and won't at least
try a medicine which has the record of Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, is to blame for her own wretched
condition. m
There are literally hundreds of thousands of women in
the United States who have been benefited by this famous
old remedy, which was produced from roots and herbs over
thirty years ago by a woman to relieve woman's suffering.
Read what these women say :
Camden, N. J. " It is -with pleasure that I send my testimo
nial for Lydia B. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, hoping: it
may induce other suffering: women to avail themselves of the
benefit of this valuable remedy.
" I suffered from pains In my back and side, sick headaches,
no appetite, was tired and nervous all the time, and so weak I
could hardly stand. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
made me a well woman and this valuable medicine shall
always have my praise." Mrs. W. P. Valentine, 90S Lincoln
Ave Camden, K. J.
Erie, Pa. I suffered for five years from female troubles, and
at last was almost helpless. I tried three doctors but they did
mm bo rood. My sister advised me to try Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, and it has made me well and strong. I
hope all suffering women will just give Lydia E. Pinkham's
vegetable Compound a trial, for 9t is worth its weight in gold."
-Mrs. J. P. Bndlich, R. F.. 7, Erie, Pa.
Since we guarantee that all testimonials which we pub
lish are genuine, is it not fair to suppose that if Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound had the virtue to help
these women it will help any other woman who is suffer
ing from the same trouble.
For 80 years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound has been the standard remedy for
female Ills. No sick woman does justice to
herself who will not try this famous medicine.
Made exclusively from roots and herbs, and
has thousands of euros to its credit.

MAY END TARIFF
DEBATE THURSDAY
Special from United Fress.
Washington, March 30. An effort is
being made by Representative Tawney,
(Republican, Minn.), to round up the
tariff sentiment of all the Republican
members of the western states. His
object is to ascertain the schedules of
the tariff bill on which they desire a
separate vote. When this has been done
the House leaders will be asked to in
clude this rule in the passage of the
bill. The indications are that the gen
eral debate will end in a few days,
possibly by Thursday. It is under
stood that Ohamp Clark, the Demo
cratic leader, has agreed to such a
program on the ground that the time
instead of being devoted to general
debate could be put to much better
use by being occupied by debate on the
sections under the five minute rule.
In his maiden speech before the
House to-day Representative Cox
(Democrat, Ohio), made a strong plea
for the reduction of the Haryr on sew
ing machines and bicycles. He de
clared that American manufacturers
were absolutely helpless in competing
with manufacturers of these products
abroad. Cox declared that it was ex
penditure and not revenue that should
have consideration by the Republican
party.
An additional revenue tax on beer is
In prospect as a new feature of the
Payne Tariff Bill. So much protest
has been aroused by the tariff on tea
and countervailing tariff on coffee and
the demand for revenue has been so
forcible that House leaders have under
serious consideration the Question of
increasing the tax on beer.
No decision has been reached by the
House leaders on the Question of hav
ing a Republican caucus but the
chances are that none will be held.
There is such a diversion of sentiment
among the members caused by con
flicting inteUssts of the various dis
tricts that it would be risky to bring
them together in caucus.
The present plan Is to bring in a rule
on Thursday cutting off general de
bate naming the schedules on which
there may be a separate vote and fix
ing a day probably April 10; for a
vote on the bill.

(Continued.!
Uriaaiy, she answered. "I was
sending certain orders to the slave
(peoples who still know me as Mother
of the Trees, and obey my words. Per
haps thou dost not believe that while I
sat upon yonder wall I talked across
the desert to the chiefs of the marches
upon the far border of the land of the
TTmkulu. and that by now at my bid
ding they have sent out men upon an
errand of mine."
"What was the errand. Mother?"
asked Rachel curiously.
"I said the errand was mine, not
thine. Maiden. It is not pressing, but
as I do nit know how long my strength
will last, I thought it well that it
should be settled." Then without more
words she coiled herself up on her mat
and seemed to go to sleep.
It was after this incident of the
drums that Rachel experienced the
strangest days, or rather weeks of her
life. Nya sent her Into no more
trances, and to all outward seeming
nothing happened. Yet within her
much did happen. Her madness had
utterly left her and still she was not
as other women are, or as she herself
had been in health. Her mind seemed
to wander and she knew not whither
it wandered. Yet for loner hours, al
though she was awake and, so Noie
said, talking or eating or walking a
usual, it was away from her, and aft
erwards she could remember nothing.
Also this happened at night as well as
during the day, and ever more and
more often.
She couid remember nothing, yet out
of this nothingness there grew upon
her a continual sense of the presence
of Richard Darrien, a presence that
seemed to come nearer and nearer,
closer and closer to her heart. It was
the assurance of this presence that
made those long days so -happy to her,
though when she was herself, she felt
that it could be naught but a dream.
Yet why should a dream move her so
strangely, and why should a dream
weary her so much ? Why, after sleep
ing all night, should she awake feeding
as though she had journeyed all night?
Why should her limbs ache and she
grow ttiin like one who travels without
ceaso? Why should she seem time aft
er time to have passed great dangers,
to have known cold, and beat and
want and the struggleagainst waters
and the battling against storms? Why
should her knowledge of this Richard,
of the very heart and soul of Richard,
grow ever deeper till It was as though
they were not twain, but one?
She could not answer these questions,
and Noie could not answer them, and
when she asked Nya the old Mother
shook her head and could not. or
would not answer. Only the dwarf
mutes seemed to know the answer, for
when she passed them they nudged
each other, and grinned and thrust
their little woolly heads together star
ing, several of them, into one bowl.
Rut if Nolo and Nya knew noth'ng: of
the cause of these thlngB the effect of
them stirred them both, for the saw
that Rachel, the tall and strong, grew
faint and weak and began to fade
away as one fades upon whom deadly
sickness has laid its hand.
Thus three weeks or so went by, un
til one day in some fashion of her own
Nya caused to arise Jjr the mind of
Rddo a knowledge of her desire to
i speak with him. Early the next mom
! ing Eddo arrived at the Holy Place
1 accompanied only by his familiar
Hana, and Nya met them alone in the
mouth of the cave.
"I see that thou art very white and
thin, but still alive, old woman,"
sneered Eddo, adding: "All the thou
sands of the DeoDle yonder thought
that long ere this thou wouldst hav
passed within the Fence. May x taite
back good tidings to them?"
The ancient Mother of the Trees
looked at him sternly.
"It is true, thou evil mocker," she
said, "that I am white and thin. It
is true that I grow like to the skeleton
of a rotted leaf, all slbs and nettled
veins without substance. It is true
that my round eyes start from my
head like to those of a bush plover, or
the tree lizard, and that soon I must
pass within the Fence, as thou hast eo
long desired that I should do that thou
mayest reign alone over the thousands
of the People of the Dwarfs and wield
their wisdom to increase thy power,
thou poison-bloated toad. All these
things are true, Eddo, yet ere I go I
have a word to say to thee to which
thou wilt do well to listen."
"Speak on," said Eddo. "Without
doubt thou hast wisdom of a sort;
honey thou hast garnered during mans
years, and it is well that I should suck
the store before It is too late."

dHe in this Holy Place who grows
white and thin. Look, there Is an
other." atrf she nodded towards Ra
chel, who walked past them aimlessly
with dreaming eyes, attended by Nole. I
uDon whose arm she leant.
"I see," answered Eddo, "this haunt
ed death-prison presses the life out of
her, also I think that thou hast sent
her Spirit travelling, as thou knowest
how to do, and such journeys sap the
strength of flesh and blood." .
"Perhaps; but now before It Is too
late I would send ' her body travelling
also; only thou, who hast the power
for a while, dost bar the road."
"I know," said Eddo. nodding his
head and looking at his companion.
"We all know, do we not, Hana? we
who have heard certain beatings of
drums in the night, and studied de
drops beneath the trees at dawn. ThoW
wouldst sena ner to meet anoiuer
traveller."
"Yes. and if thou are wise thou wilt
let her go."
"Why should I let her go?" asked
the priest passionately, "and with her
all my greatness? She must reign
here after thee, for at her feet thy
Tree fell, and It is the will of the peo
ple, who weary of dwarf queens and
desire one that is tall and beautiful
and white. Moreover, when my blood
has been poured into her, her wisdom
will be erreat. ereater than thine or
that of any Mother that went before
thee, for she is Wensi,' the virgin,
and her soul Is purer than them an.
I will not let her go. If she leaves
this Holy Place where none may do
her harm, she shall die. and then her
Spirit may go to seek that other
traveller."
"Thou art mad. Eddo, mad and blind
with pride and folly. Let her be, and
choose another Mother. Now, there is
Noie."
"Thy great-niece, Nya, who thinks as
thou thinkest, and hates those whom
thou hatest. Nay, I will have none or
that half-breed. Yonder white inKo
sazana shall be our queen and no
other." - J
"Then. Eddo," whispered Nya. lean
ing forward, and looking into his 'jyes,
"She shall be the last Mother of this
people. Fool, there are those who
fight for her against whom thou tanst
not prevail. Thou Knowest tnem not.
but I know them, and I tell thee tnat

CHAPTER XXIII.
The Dream in the Norta.
Richard Darrien remembered drink
ing a bowl of milk in the hutSn which
he was imprisoned at M afoot! and in
stantly feeling a cold chill nn to his
heart and brain, after whici he re
membered no more for maty a day.
At length, however, by slov degrees,
and with sundry slips back into un
consciousness, life and som share of
his reason and memory rdurned to
him. He awoke to find hinself lying
in a hut roughly fashioned jf branch
es, and attended by a Kaffir woman of
middle age. ;
"Who are you?" he asked'
"I am named Maml," she! answered.
"Maml, Maml! I know the name.
land I know the voice. Saj, were you
pne of the wives of Ibubeii, she who
ppoke with me through the (fence?" and
Bie otrove to raise' himself Ion his arm
.o look at her, but fell back from weak
ness. ;
"Tes. Inkoos, I was one of his wives."
"Wat ? Then where is Ibubesi now?"
"Dead, Inkoos. The lira has burned
: lim up with his kraal Mafooti."
"With the kraal Mafobti! Where.
then, is the Inkosasana? Answer,
woman, ana De swift," lie cried in a
pollow voice.
"Alas! Inkos, alas! shd is dead also
lor she was in the kraal when the fire
t wept it. and was seen standing on the
( op of a hut where she mad taken re
ijuge. and after that sh was seen no
more."
I "Then -let me die and ko to her," ex
claimed Richard with f groan, as he
fall back upon his beflf where he lay
almost insensible for trlree more days.
Yet he did not die, fa!- he was young
and very strong, and Mami poured
rtiilk down his throat to keep the life
in him. Indeed little by little some
thing of his strength came back, so
that at last he was able to think and
talk with her again, and learned all
the dreadful story.
He learned how the people of Ha
footi, fearing the vengeance of Din
gaan. had fled away from their kraal,
carrying what they thought to be his
body with them, lest it shou'd remain
in evidence against them, and taking
all the cattle that they could gather.
Every one of them had fled that could
travel, only Ibubesi and a few sick,
and certain folk who chanced to be
outside the walls, remaining behind.
It was from two of these, who escaped
during the burning of the kraal by the
Zulus, or by fire from the Heavens,
they knew not which, that they had
heard of the awful end of Ibubesi, and
of his prisoner, the Inkosazana. As
for themselves, they had travelled
night and day, till they reached a cer
tain secret and almost inaccessible
place in the great Quathlamba Moun
tains, in which people had lived whom
Chaka wiped out. and there hidden
themselves. In this place they remain
ed, hoping that Dingaan would not
cars to follow them so far. and pur
posing to make It their home, since
here they found good mealie lands, and
fortunately the most of their cattle re
mained alive. That was all the story
there was nothing more to tell.
A day or two later Richard was able
to' creep out of the hut and see the
place. It was as Mami had said, very
strong.a kind of tableland ringed round
with precipices that could only be
climbed through a single narrow nek,
and overshadowed by the great Qua' h
lamba range. The people, who were
engaged in planting their corn, gather
ed round him. staring at him as
though he were one risen from the
dead, and greeted him with respectful
words. He spoke to several of them.
Including the two men who had seen
the burning of Mafooti, though from
a little distance. But they could tell
no more than Maml had done, except
that they were sure that the Inkosa
zana had perished in the flames, as
ha(j many of the Zulus, who broke in
to the town. Richard was sure of It
also who would not have been? and
crept back broken-hearted to his hut,
he who had lost all, and longed that
he might die.
Btit he did not die, he grew strong
agafn, and when he was well and fit to
travel, went to the headmen of the
people, saying that now he desired to
leave them and return to his own place
in the Cape Colony. The headmen said
No, he must not leave, for in their
hearts" thev were sure that he would
go, not to the Cape Colonv, but to
Zululand, there to discover all he could
as to tho death of the Inkosazana. So
they told him trfat with them he must
bide, for then if the Zulus tracked
then out they would be able to pro
duce him, who otherwise would be put
to the spear, every man of them, as
his murderers. The sin of Ibubesi,
who had been their chief, c'ung to
them, and they knew well what Din
gaan and Tamboosa had sworn should
happen to those who harmed the white
chief, Dario, who was under the man
tle of their Inkosazana.
Richard reasoned with them, but It
was of no use, they would not let him
go. Therefore in the end he appeared
to fall in with their humour, and
meanwhile began to plan escape. One
c'arknight he tried it indeed, only to
be seized in the mouth of the nek, and
brought back to his hut. Next morn
iig te headmen spoke with him, tell
iig him that he should only depart
tSenceover their dead bodies, and that
taey -Watched him night and day: that
the nek. moreover, was always guard
ed. Then thev made an offer to him.
Be was a white man, they sa'd, and
civeror than they were; let them come
uader his wins-, let him be their chief,
for he would know how to protect them
frlm the Zulus and any other enemies.
Hi could take over the wives of Ibu
besi (at this proposition Richard shud
dered), and they would obey him in all
things; only he must not attempt to
ief.ve them which he should never do
alive.
Richard put the proposal by. but in
the end, not because he wished it, but
by the mera weight of his white man's
blood, and for the lack of anything e'.ee
to do, drifted into some such position.
Only at the wives of Ibubesi, or any
other wives, he would not so much as
look, a slight that gave offence to those
women, but made the others laush.
So. for certain long weeks he sat In
that secret nook in the mounta'ns as
the chief of a little Kafir tribe, oc
cupying himself with the planting of
crops, the building of walls and huts,
the1 drilling of men and the settling
of duarrels. All day he worked thus,
but! after the day came the night whn
he fiid not work, and those nights he
dreAded. For then the languor, not of
body, but of mind, which the poison
the old witch-doctress had given to
Ishr mel had left behind it, would over
corn e him. bringing with it black des
paid. and his grief would get a hold
of 1 lim. torturing his heart. For of
the memory of Rachel he could never
be r id for a sinerle hour, and his love
for 1 ier grew deeper day by day. And
she wajS dead ! . Oh, she was dead,
leayngjhim living.
On 3 uifrht he dreamed of Rachel,
drea peal that she was searching for
hirn-nfl calling him. It was a very
vivid"eam. but he woke up and it
pasBia'' as sucn oreams oo. uniy
THE
all the day that followed he felt a
strange throbbing in his head, and
found himself turning ever towards
the north. The next night he dreamed
again of her, and heard her say, "The
search has been far and long, but
have found you, Richard. Open yo
eyes now, and you will see my face.'
co he opened his eyes, and there, sure
enough, on the darkness he perceived
the outline of her sweet, remembered
face, about which fell her golden hair.
For one moment only he perceived it
then it was gone, and after that her
presence never seemed to leave him
He could not see her, he could not
touch her, and yet she was ever at his
side. His brain ached with the thought
of her, her breath seemed to fan his
hands and hair. At night her face
floated before him. and in h's dreams
her voice called him. saying: "Come to
me, come to me, Richard. I am in
need of you. Come to me. I myself
will be your guide.
Then he would wake, and remember
ing that she was dead, grew sure and
ever surer that the Spirit of Rachel
was calling him down to death. It
called him from the north, always
from the north. Soon he could scarce 9
walk southwards, or east or west, for
ere he had gone many yards his feet
turned and set his face towards the
north, that was to the narrow nek be
tween the precipices which the Kaffirs
guarded night and day.
One evenina he went to his hut to
sleep, if sleep would come to him. It
came, and with it that face and voice
but the face seemed paler, and the
voice more insistent.
"Will you not listen to me," it "said,
you who were my love? For how
long must I. plead with you? Soon my
power will leave me. the opportunity
will be passed, and then how will you
find me, i-uchard. my lover? Rise up.
rise up and follow ere it be too late.
for I myself will be your guiae.
He awoke. He could bear It no more.
Perhaps he was mad, and these were
visions of his madness, mocking visions
that led him to his death. Well. If
so, he still would follow them. Per
haps her body was buried in the north.
If so, he would be buried there also;
perhaps her Soul dwelt in the north.
Is so, his soul would fly thither to Join
it. The Kaffirs would kill him in the
pass. Well, if so. he would die with
his face set northwards whither Ra
chel drew him.
He rose up and wrapped himself in
a cloak of goatskins. He filled a hide
bag with sun-dried flesh and parched
corn, and hung it about his shoulders
with a gourd of water, for after all he
might live a little while and need food
and drink. As he had no gun he took
a staff and a knife and a broad-bladed
spear, and leaving the hut, set his face
northward and walked towards the
mouth of the nek. At the first step
which he took the torment in his head
seemed to leave him, who touzht n
longer, who had become obedient to
that mysterious summons. Quietness
and confidence possessed him. He was
going to his end, but what did it mat
ter? The dream beckoned and he must
follow. The moon shone bright, but he
took no trouble to hide himself, it did
not seem to be worth while.
Now he was in the nek and drawing
near to the place where the guard was
stationed, still he marched on, boldly,
openly. As he thought, they were on
the alert. They drew out from behind
the rocks and barred his path.
"Whither goest thou, lord Dario?"
asked their captain. "Thou knowest
that here thou mayest not pass."
"I follow a Ghost to the north," he
answered, "and living or dead, I pass."
"Ow!" said the captain. "He says
that he follows a Ghost. Well, we have
nothing to do with ghosts. Take him,
unharmed If possible, but take him."
So, urged thereto by their own fears,
since for their safety's sake they dared
not let him go. the men sprang to
wards him. They sprang towards h:m
where he sood waitinz the end, for
give back he would not. and of a sud
den fell down upon their faces, hiding
their heads among the stones. Richard
did not know what had happened to
them that they behaved thus strange
ly, nor did he care. Only seeing them
fallen he walked on over them, and
pusued his "way along the nek and
down it to the plains beyond.
All that night he walked, looking be
hind him from time to time to see if
any followed, but none came. He was
alone, quite alone, save for the dream
that led him towards the north. At
sunrise he rested and slept a while,
then, awaking after midday, went on
his road. He did not know the road,
yet never was he in doubt for a mo
ment. It was always clear to him
whither he should so. That night he
finished his food and again slept a
while, going forward at the dawn. In
the morning he met some Kaffirs, who
questioned him. but he answered only
that he was following a Dream to the
north. They stared at him, seemed to
grow frightened and ran away. But
presently some of them came back and
placed food in his path, which he took
and left them.
He came to , the kraal Mafooti. It
was utterly deserted, and he wandered
amidst Its ashes. Here and there he
found the bones of those who had per
ished In the Are, and turned them over
with his staff wondering wh'-th-r any
of them had belonged to Rachel. In
that place he slept a n'ght thinking
that perhaps his Journey was ended
and that here he would die where he
believed that Rachel had died. But
when he waked at the dawn, it was to
find that something within him still
drew him towards the north, more
strongly indeed than ever before.

these shops does not settle the strike
in the other shops, however, which is
likely to be a long drawn out affair.
