Cullen Sabe-who knows-is a phrase
In very common use among the Span
iards. and helps owe many, many diff
ticulties. IT is expressive. What the
weather may be the coming winter,
who knows? 1t may be snowy, wet,
stormy, cold, freezing, and full Of sick
ness and pain, who knows? Some of
us today, hale and hearty, may lie on
beds of torture or hobble about on
crutches, who knows? Before the nu-
tumn merges into winter many may
have symptoms of approaching trouble,
of the old rheumatism coming on, or of
first attacks begun; who knows? Who
knows? That's Il conundrum. But
there is II thing everybody knows, the
best thing to do is to be ready for the
weather coming and to take hold OF
what is. Everybody knows what Is
best. With st. Jacobs Oil in the house,
everybody knows they have a sure cure
for rheumatism, acute or chronic. 1t is
likewise known that in any stage of it
the great remedy does its work OF cure
perfectly. If we suffer we need not ask
who knows, when 1t is so well known

FIBROID TUMOR
Expelled by Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.
Interview with Mrs. b. A. Lombard.

H. - II .a
l have reason to think that I would
not be here now if it had not been for
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound. 1t cured me of a fbroid tumor
in my womb.
Doctors could donothing for me, and
they could not cure me at the hospital.
/ will tell you about it:
Ihad been in my usual health, but
had worked quite hard. When my
monthly period came on, I flowed very
badly. The doctor gave me medicine,
but it did me no good. He said the
flow must be stopped if possible, and
he must find the cause of my trouble.
Upon examination, he found there
was a Fibroid Tumor in my womb, and
gave me treatment without any benefit
whatever. About that time a lady
called on me, and recommended Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
said she owed her life to it. I
said l would try it, and did. Soon
after the flow became more natural and
regular. l still continued taking the
Compound for some time. Then the
doctor made an examination again,
and found everything all right. The
tumor had passed away and that dull
ache was gone.-MRs. b. A. LOMBARD,

CHICAGO MAY BE TAUGHT LESSON
If Uncle Sam Wants His Mail Car.
ried by the Street Cars 1t Will
Hnye IN V(n Ucun Ga


New York, Oct. IA special to the
Herald from Washington says:
Should the city authorities in Chicago
undertake to stop the carrying of the
mails on street cars they may find
themselves in conflict with the entire
power of the United States, and the
police may be confronted by soldiers.
There is n question as to the right of
the government to send mails over
any Of the highways in the United
States, for while it cannot compel any
transportation company to carry
mails, there is ample authority for
the protection of any company which
may undertake to transport them.
The department is not at all on
cerned as to the question of whether
street railway companies are liable to
forfeit the charters by the ~transporta-
ton of the mail. That is a question
between the companies and the city.
