Biliousness, Constipation, or some other irregu larity of the system. Many women habitually suffer from Headaches, which make life, a daily purgatory. Indeed this complaint may be regarded as peculiarly an affection of the feminine sex, an ailment common to all women from girlhood to old age. If men suffered from Headaches as women do, business would be at a standstill, but the truth is that a woman's headache is generally due to womanly causes. Dr. Morea's Indian Root Pills get at the cause. They aid the digestion and assimilation of food, cleanse the system and purify the blood, and are a positive cure for sick headache, biliousness and stomach disorders.

The success of the Conference is due in great part to the skill of the French Minister of Commerce, M. Clémentel, in preparing the resolutions and in conduct- ing the proceedings. The opportunity provided by meetings such as this for direct intercourse between the represen- tatives of the Allied Governments is by no means the least of the advantages secured. In concluding his speech, the Belgian Prime Minister said that the Grat conference of the Allies had realized its object completely." He alluded to'clock, and had time to get brushed up
