Washington March 10. The Italian goferntiinut, through Its representatives In Washington, lately laid hefore the Btithorltieti here Ita purpose to ask of China a port on Snn-Mtin hay, and In vited on expression from this govern ment mk to its attitudf. In mponse it is understood that Secretary Hay, as well as tho president, made it clear that the United States would pursue the same course as UiWnnl the ltusslan, British mid German occupation of Chinese ports, namely, disinterested neutrality. The exchanges hare hecn verbal and rather informal, more in the nature of diplo matic soundlugs than direct propositions. They have given occasion to erroneous publications to the effect that Italy had asked the United States to support her demands ou China and that this govern ment, In n pointed note from Secretary liny, had refused, it Is said in an eminent and nuthorltatlve quarter that Italy made no such request for Ameri can support, nnd that there was no declination from this government. The circumstances of the negotiations ns ex plained in this authoritative quarter are as follows : When Italy determined to seek n port on the Chlnexi coast she addressed thos-; powers having large Interests in China, notifying them of her purpose. Owing to the good will between Italy and this country, as well as the American Inter est In China, a notification was presented to the state department here. While Italy Is said to have had no desire through this notification to enlist the sup port of the United States, she was de sirous of pursuing the usual diplomatic course when a move of this character is contemplated, namely, learn whether the United States would be favorable, disin terested or opposed. In short, before proceeding Italy desired to know what attitude the United States would take as to the Italian demand on China. The reply of Secretary Hay, which Is said to have been verbal, wns In re sponse to this notification nnd soundings from the Italian authorities. In this reply tho president is said to have given his personal concurrence. In substnnce it wns an announcement that the Uni ted States would in no way changa the attitude it had maintained thus far when Great Britain, Germany and Rus sia made advances toward China. Instead of being n denial of any re quest the reply was accepted by the Ital ian government ns entirely satisfactory and as placing it in the same position as other European powers who had sought ports in China. This, It is said, brings the negotiations at Washington to a close In a manner entirely satisfactory to the Italian authorities. Clilnn'x Apolojry to Italy. Pekin, March 10.

Deiiirnlncrmjtt. through alluring nd cun ningly worded advertisements, constantly endeavor to work upon the feelings of sick and ailing women by inviting them "to write to a woman (I) and secure a woman's sym pathy." It is well to remember that the best sympathy Is to be had at home and not irom strangers, peruaps nunareas ot muei distant. The object of the sick Is to get well. and however precious sympathy may be, it never vet cured a seriously afflicted woman. While the sympathy of your milliner or aressmaicer niieuc oe aooreciateu ana De just as beneficial, if not more so, than sym- patny irom a stranger, yet it can not euect your cure 11 you are an ailing woman. It is loudlvoroclaimed through the nresa that "a woman can best understand a woman's ailments," and on this ground sick women are invited to "write to a woman " and cet the benefit of a woman's advice. The sort of ' 'understanding of her ailments" wanted by a sick woman is a trained medi cal understanding. If a woman has this trained medical knowledge she understands woman's ailments not as a woman, but as a physician. If she is not a doctor she cannot understand the ailments at all, and cannot treat mem successfully, oecause sue lacks the necessary training. As far as known, there is no regularly qualified woman physician connected with any proprietary medicine especially de signed for women no one, therefore quail fied by learning and experience, to advise on questions of disease and its cure. It is certain that there is no one, man or woman, connected with any "put-up" medicine for women, excepting only Dr. Tierce's Favorite Prescription, who, like Dr. Pierce, is a regular graduated and quali fied physician, and who has, like him, de voted more than thirty years to the special study and treatment of diseases of women. For more than thirty years Dr. R. V. Pierce, a regularly graduated doctor, has been chief consulting physician of the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, of Buffalo. N. Y. On his staff are nearly a score of regularly graduated, experienced, skilled physicians, each of whom is a spec ialist in his chosen class of diseases.
