O'Neill Piobable Nominee for Mayor. 1'ublic Interest is now centered In the probable nominees of the Democratic party. Tlie nilmaries of the Democtats are to take place today, between 4 and 7 p. m. Up to within a few days, and even to today, there has been no certainty ns to who is the party's choice for mayor. Slates have been 'made and made over again, and while the choice for treasurer and controller weie de cided without much ado, the mayoralty was a hard nut to crack: an available candidate, or rather a willing candi date, who had the element', of strength was sought for in vain. The choice for treasurer was disposed of to the pres ent city treasurer, P. F. Connor, while John Bridged was decided on for con troller. As to the mayoralty, the feel ing is now that the nomination will be given to Hon. James J. O'Neill. Given is the bpst term that can be applied, for it is known that Mr. O'Xeill is not only not anxious, but has not even a hankering for the office. Pet haps iChis wishes were followed his name would not even be mentioned In the conven tion. There is, of course, some posslr blllty of .Mr. O'XelU's name not going before the convention; but the possi bility is somewhat remote just now, and Is likely to remain In the shade, unless there be s-ome surprising de velopments' within a few days. Tlie unexpected, of course, may happen, but If any attempt be made to place an other name bel'ote the convention the proceedings may take a lively turn. muh. unrnciET callagiiku, widow of the lute John Clallagher, died Saturday evening at her home, on AVoodluwn avenue.

You can talk freely to a woman when it is revolting to relate your private troubles to a man besides a man does not understand simply because he is a man. Many women suffer in silence and drift along from bad to worse, knowing full well that they ought to have immediate assistance, but a natural modesty impels them to shrink from exposing themselves to the questions and probably examinations of even their family physician. It is unnecessary. Without money or price you can consult a woman whose knowledge from actual experience is greater than any local physician. The following invitation is freely offered ; accept it in the same spirit. Women suffering from any form of female weakness are invited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham f at Lynn, Mass. All letters are received, opened, read and a niKivprpH lii' wmiipn mill'.
