QUITE CRITICAL
Late Advices From Clinton, Give In
Detail The Terrible Suffering
Experienced by Mrs.
McElroy
Clinton, Ky.?'Tor six years," writes
Mrs. M. C. McElroy. of Clinton, Ky., "I
! was a sufferer from womanly troubles.
I could not cat, and could not stand on
my feet without suffering great pain.
I had such awful suffering down in my
right side that I could hardly bear it.
My doctors said that I was in a critical
condition ar.d going down hill, and I had
lost all hopes of ever getting better when
I began to take Caidui.
Before I had taken one bottle of Cardui
I felt better, and in a week's time I was
better than I had been In six years.
Cardui works like a charm. I think it
Is the best medicine I ever used.
I adi-ise all suffering women to take
Cardui."
Cardui is recommended to all women
who are weak, out of sorts, under the
weather, or suffer front the pains and ail?
ments due to a weak womanly constitu?
tion.
It is a purely vegetable, harmless,
strengthening tonic, of special power over
the womanly system, and has brought
health to thousands who had failed in
oilier ways to find relief.
Wc urge you to try Cardui for your
troubles.
Your druggist sells it.

ENGLAND NOT GUILTY
OF DOUBLE-DEALING
Explanation of Reception and)
Criticism of W. Morgan
Shuster.
by l?\ aiAnacisK de fontkxoy.
THAT \V. Morgan Sinister, In sptt.i
of hin very friendly welcome In]
England on his mum from Por
sla und particularly oordlal re?
ception by Sir Edward Grey, the Eng?
lish Secretary of State Cr Forden Af?
fairs, should have been condemned by
i tho British government In the Blub
I Book presented to Parliament on the;
i subject of the Persian imbroglio, docs
I not In any sense mean that England!
I has been guilty of double dealing. Thr;
I English people seem to have l>. en
I protty genorally agreed that while
i their agreement with Busala regar<ling
IPersia had been open to severe crit?
icism, yot once entered Into they had
j no alternative whatsoever but to act
las they did In the matter, whether
1 It was right or Just to Persia or not
Tho troublo was that Morgan Shus
I ter possessed more straightforward?
ness than tact, and felt himself obllgtd
? to espouse the cause of a people that
had already surrendered all their nat
i lonal rights, and who were Indebted
1 foe th j remnants of their national ox
! ister.co to the Czar and to the. English
: crown. The first troublo of Morgan
Sinister arose curiously enough with
the English element of the Condom?
inium. But It was quickly smoothed
away by Sir George Barclay, the P.rlt-|
Ish minister plenipotentiary at Tehe?
ran, who Is married to an
I American wife. Beatrix Mary
[day Chapman, daughter of Henry
IG. Chapman, of N'fw York In a couplcj
j 01* days overything was in working
! oider again. Encouraged by ids suc
I cess, and assuming therefrom an as
'surance that he could alwajs louk for
support from the English legation.
Morgan Shuster next attacked the Rus?
sian agent, who was a very clever man,
and who alto had spent much of his
life In England, having been a particu?
lar friend and "bridge" partner of
King Edward. His name ?ras M. Pos
cjpl PoscAolskJ. Here, howevir, he
?found himaelf In a whole peck of
trouble. Nothing could move the Rus?
sian Minister from the attitude which
he had taken up, and not even Sir
Georg? Barclay's representation that
Posclolskl had gone even beyond the
point oorrtnilitod to him by the 3t
Petersburg government would cause
him to yield a single hair's breadth.
Finally ar. ultimatum was presented
by RusBla to Persia, and It was only
when tho Russian army was actually
marching into Teheran that the Per?
sian government climbed down from
the high position they had assumed
and dismissed Morgan Shuster from
the post of Treasurer-General at Te?
heran, along with all the members of
hts bureau, some people over here an?
ticipated that the Blue Book, that la
the collection of th; diplomatic and
official reports about Persia to Parlia?
ment, would seek to smooth over the
Morgan Shuster oplsode. would laud
him for hin work, and pay tribute to
htm for the lasting results which it
was likely to have In Psrsia. This is.
however, very far from being the case.
The. Mo,-gan Sh.usf.eir affair Is con?
demned Just as severely by Sir Edward
Grey as by the Oirman Minister of
Foreign Affairs. Baron Kiderlen
Waechter, and the Minister of Foreign
Affairs at St. Petersburg; while the
f ar Is expressed in England that
Shustor's work will eventually be
found lo have proved far more hurt?
ful than beneittclal. True, no exception
is taken to his Integrity. But it is in?
sisted that for a man even of the high?
est Integrity to attempt to assume
the internal administration of an Ori?
ental country of the rational pecu?
liarities of which he Is ignorant, was
the most foolhardy and reckless job
?aver undertaken, oven by an Ameri?
can, whose llrst principle of f ill th Is a
blind belief In his ability tp land
somewhere on both feet.
Baron Coels von dec Brugghen, who
Is delegated by Germany to serv? as
her chief representative at the inter?
national congress on shipping and
tr?nt portatlon matters opening on
May .'3 next at Philadelphia, is the
head of a very old-established Coburg
fatally, tho members o? which have
always preferred lo make their head
quarters in the DuchlsS of Coburg aiid
Gotha, rather than in Prussia or any
of the larger states on the German
Confederation. considering that it Is
more agreeable to be a personage In a
^mal! country than a nonentity In a
big one. They are persona grata al
the court of Coburg, und owing to the
Intimacy which prevails between Co?
burg and 11 srllli on the one hand, anil
Gotha and St. Petersburg on the other,
it may safely be taken lor grant, ft
that a kindly word from Baron Cocls
con der Brugghen will prove extreme?
ly effective In securing presentation
at the courts of boih empires. Ii I
aal! attention to this. It is because
good deal has been published about
the alleged trouble which the German
officials contemplate making with rc
gurd t'i the presentation of Americans
at the court of Berlin
Khedive Abba's engagement of his
daughter Amlnuh to the son of the
Turkish Mti shir and former Grand
Vizier, Ferid Pasha, has crjated a good
deal of a sensation, not because the
union in question is looked upon in
an> sense of the word as a mesalli?
ance, but mainly because the princess
is renowned as one of the loveliest
piincoHscs of hct age lo be found
either in Europe or 'Slsewliere, She has
been both deaf and dumb from her
birth. W hat adds to the seeming cruel?
ty of tho affliction is that she Is a
most brilliantly gifted woman. In fact
she is probably the most attractive
Tolls of Its superiority more forcibly
than words. The voices of MILLIONS
all for it at the grocery atore.
Merit has made It the choice of the
people. No other Baking Powder
costing so little does so much.
The Southern
of all tho princesses of the blood now
living, ae she '8 certainly alon<; among
them In being deprlvod of the. uso of
hearing and speech. She Is positively
Idolized by her parents and by In r
brothers and alaters, and among the I
Egyptian people at large her affllc-1
tloji Is looked upon as a special token
of holiness. It Is fortunate under the
circumstances that young Kerld has
an excellent rcpututipn as a ntle
m.in in the best Turkish sense of the
word, and that is saying no little, as
those who have resided in the Otto?
man Kmplr: are aware. For. If It were
thought that any untoward Influi uce
could be exercised upon so politically
and religiously inriuenti.il a person?
age as the Princess A ml nah :ho' eon?
sequen es muht i>e .| iploruble, both
in Turkey and In ISgypt. Fcrld Pasha,
the father of the brlUogrootii-toi-bc, Is
a man of about sixty, and perhaps the
best proof of the sterling character
of both fathir and son is that both of
them enjoy in an equal degree the
confidence and affection of the present
Khedive and of the present Sultan,
and also of tho older and more con
scrvatlve part of the Turkish consti?
tutional regime.
