THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1899. Wearying, ceaseless backache. Dull, exhausting and constant pain. No comfort by day. No rest at night. Aches in the small of the back, pain low down in the side. No spirit for any task, no relief. Great numbers of women are from backache from one year's end to another. Among Mrs. Pinkham’s victories there is none more complete than ache, and the evi- hope not iree ~le that over back dence of thousands of women prove that she is its conqueror. Mrs, C. Klenk, of Wells, Minn. (Box 151), writes **DEAR MRs. nd can work thout feeling tired. E.

Senor Rios urged the Premier, Senor Silvela, to demand a fulfillment by the Americans of their engagements under the treaty providing for commerc ad- | vantages ‘o Spain in the Philippines, | Senor Silvela replied that difficulties had arisen in the execution of tu stipula- tions in the treaty doubtle: because the Americans had not yet fully es- tablished their way in the Philippines. —_————————— Schooihouses Inspected.
