A DemoraIized Market.

There never has been a time since blue
berry packing was first thought of when
the market was so demoralized as during
the past week. A year ago the wholesale
price settled from the former figures to
81. 10 per dozen. The season opened with a
strong marketTand prospective advance
on account of the drouth. The rain fell
and the crop was phenomenally large and
most pernicious competition began.
Last week goods were sold from 30 cents
to 81. 90 per dozen, the former figures
barely covering the expense. Consumers
will find, however, that the suggestion
heretofore given to weigh out the contents
of the cans will repay them to observe
this year. Actual comparisonsshows on a
lot of gallon goods shortage OF one gal
lon and 7-10 to dozen. Pickers only
get two cents per quart. The chance of
advance from the low price is good.

the liver is torpid and sluggish and the
need of tonic and Alternative is felt A
prompt use of this medicine has often
averted long and perhaps fatal bilious
feyers No medicine will act more surely

HEROIC WOMEN.
Their Struggle Against a Common and
Merciless Enemy.
tsrxc1AL TO ous LADY READERS,


to make those around her cheerful, while
she is racked with the excruciating tor
lures of womb trouble.
Think of one who, day by day, begs her
physician to help her, while the torture
of tortures could not add to her misery.
Does she yield? No! She endures her
agonies, and meets her friends with
cheerfulness. -
This is woman's heroism, and few men
realize how prevalent they are. Physi-
clans rarely render relief in such cases.
Aftertwenty years of success, withever-
increasing popularity, Lydia E.. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound is, to-day,
woman's only sure and safe refuge from
Inflammation, liberation, falling and dis
placement of the womb, ovarian trouble,
leucorrhea, painful and suppressed men
situations, kidney trouble, nervous pros
tration, and all manner of distressing
and life-sapping female diseases.
80 my sisters, believe what is told YOU
of this wonderful medicine Before I
took it had falling of the womb and
leucorh9a. My womb came down so
badly could not walk across the floor;
the pain was excruciating; now all is so
changed, and I am so happy. lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has
saved me from life of misery. Don't,
don't suffer, say, when cure is so easily
obtained" - MRS. WILLIAM HOWE, 1853
