Some Valuable Statistics in Regard
to This Period.
Lydia {. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
Found To Be Then of Great Assistance-Mrs
NE. Kriner's Personal Experience Told for
the Benefit of Women in Similar Condition

It is said that the turn of life is the
most important period in a woman's
existence, and owing to modern meth
DDS of living not more than one woman
out of a thousand approaches this per-
fectly natural change without expert
encing a train of very annoying and
sometimes painful symptoms.
Those dreadful hot flashes, sending
the blood surging to the head until it
seems ready to burst, and the faint
feeling that follows, as if the heart
were going to stop, are symptoms of a
dangerous nervous trouble.
The hot flashes are just so many calls
from nature for help. At this time
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound will be of great value, as the
following letter from Mrs. Kriner in
dicates. The Vegetable Compound is
tonic especially prepared to act upon
the female generative organs. 1t in
vigorates and strengthens those organs
in such manner as to build up the
weakened nervous system, and enables
a woman to pass that troublesome
period triumphantly.
Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass, is al
ways glad to answer any personal let
tiers, and it is well for any woman
who is in doubt about her condition to
write to Mrs. Pinkham and get p thor
ough analysis of her case, and advice
about what to do.
Mrs. N. E. Kriner, Kingstown, Ind.
says:-My trouble was Change of Life.

find no permanent relief until one year
ago. tried Lydia E. Pinkhams Vege-

friends will do as I did.
A STANDING INVITATION.
Women suffering from any form of fe-
male weakness are invited to promptly
communicate with Mrs. Pinkham at
Lynn, Mass. All letters are received,
opened, read and answered by women
only. A woman can freely talk of her
private illness to a woman; thus has
been established the eternal confidence
between Mrs. Pinkham and the women
of America which has never been
broken. Out of the vast volume of ex-
perience which she has to draw from
it is more than possible that she has
gained the very knowledge that will
help your case. She asks nothing in
return except your good will, and her
advice has relieved thousands. Surely,
any woman, rich or poor, is very fool
ish if she does not take advantage Of
this generous offer of assistance.

A. the date this story commence $
~ the wear 1743, there resided in
'DOI West Riding of Yorkshire. England,
tDe ~ Of ancient pedigree and great
ia itb This was the family of Sir
N'a, 90 paseIy, gentleman of the old
1ps GEORGE was married, though not
81 - 10 was already an old bachelor.
un'H his wife was a young and lovely
Du' Of tender age, compared with
t ptin own. for when she became Lady

Ia'I cooroe dotted ON her, and, indeed,

sue rorvtbing in person and mind that
lns hoort could wish. But, alas! the
We Death, came, and the same
U.S. that made him father took the
pUu. .,o mothes. and fond wife to her
ger home. Time rolled on, and the
lOu aot child grew daily more like what
Nv mother was, while Sir George loved
Nv ~, With a deep and absorbing affection.
There was a young man, a wild and
.I.loss shirt that claimed to be next

c,orga and would doubtless, from
w w. neculiar cause known to law, be

s satss now holden by Sir George, pro-
ss5od he should die without issue.
Tbsrefore the birth and growth of lit
u, Touise pasely was watched with
.solous care by Ernest Renwood, who
iSoned one day to possess the broad
pose,y estates for his own.
Four years had passed since the birth

anil beautiful child, when Renwood saw
that he must bring his designs to an
i,sue. and rot leave any longer his
homes to chance. He therefore formed

ant 10 rid himself of her, for, as we
have seen. she stood between him and
+bs rich lands he so much coveted. He
was not naturally a hardened villain,
Int that most powerful incentive to
evil. that most thriving agent of the
Evil Spirit. avarice, was goading him
on to the brink of perdition; and he
was an orphan and had been reared
lacking the fostering care and godly
| counsel that forwarns and fore
arms youth against the temptations of
manhood
II was late one mild summers night
when he came to this conclusion; he
recalled to his mind that at wild and
secluded spot some two miles from the
Immediate ucghborhod of Sir Georges
estate, there were e%camped at that
very hour a band of gypsies, who he at
once coniectured might be of service
to him in the plan he proposed to
execute, viz, to rid himself of the little
Louise Pasely, heiress to the estates
that he was determined to possess.

THEY YIvISECTED
DR.. j. N. Baylis addressed the Philopo-
lemicaI society of Company x last night OH
how to stop the flow of blood from wound,
and as there was no representative of the
Humane society present, and the police
were not informed of what wac going on,
then the surgeon operated. A convenient
subject was found with more blood than
gray matter, and hence it is that the fioor
of the armory is despatched with rich
crimson in several places, while Some of
the guardsmen are still pale from the ex.
per:ence.
DR.. Baylis brought his janitor along, a
strapping German, and the Teuton was
stripped to the waist. A bandage was then
placed around his arm, and twisted with ii
stick, until the artery in the forearm stood
out like a whipcord. The surgeon. then took
his lancet and with quick incisiol cut the
artery, and the blood spurted into tho air.
Then came the practical part Of the DEM
onstration. The ends of the artery were
taken up, and the flow Of blood stopped as
il the wound had been received in actual
combat.
The lecture is to be followed by one on
How to Set Broken Limb, and the infer
ence is that the long suffering janitor will
submit to a broken leg, in order that it may
be set for the etificatiou OF the soldiers.
1t is suggested that before the course is
completed it would be advisable to give a
practical demonstration of how to treat "a
man with bullet through his skull" and
il the kaiser's former subject survives, he
certainly will deserve to BIZ retired on a
pension.

A young woman named Annie Wright,

ment for laudanum poisoning. She is
about % years old and of prepossessing

geles streets. and has consorted with a
youLg fellow named Dave Lewis. The
latter rooms at 227 Wilmington street
with friend, but acknowledged that he
had on divers occasions occupied the room
OF the woman.
1t appears that the woman and Lewis
must have quarreled. for st!e appeared at
the desk of the hotel suddenly and told the
uight clerk that she was sick, had taken
laudanum, and wanted Lewis sent for. A
telephone was sent to police headquarters
and Lewis summoned. In her room was
an empty cup which smelled strongly OF
laudauum and a decanter. At the police
station she was given immediate treatment
by DR.. Bryant and soon pronounced out
of danger. She refused to talk and would
give no resaon for her attempt at self
destruction. Lewis was allowed to go
after being closely questioned.
