shape and dimensions, with that in
view.
In the trade the pancake turner IS

Their hard lives, their liability to Sc

and fill their later years with suffering.
Mrs Pinkham has done much to make
women strong. She has given advice
to many that has shown them how to
guard against disease and retain vigor-
GUS health in old age. From every cor
ner of the earth there is constantly COM
ing the most convincing statements
from women, showing the efficacy of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com

is a letter from Mrs. j. c. Orms, of 220
Horner ST., Johnstown, Pa, which is
earnest and straight to the point:

"From linguistic point of view, y
said a Rhode Island Judge the other
dav, "the most difficult case which
ever came up before me was one where
Turk was suing an Armenian for
some damage alleged to have been in
ficted upon his property. The Turk
could not speak Armenian, the Armen-
ian could not speakTurkish, and neither
of them could speak English. After
vigorous search for an interpreter
a man was found who was able to con-
verse in both Armenian and Turkish,
but the best he could do for us was
to translate those languages into
French. This was still demanding a
good deal of our Yankee court, and a
second interpreter, to turn the French
into English, had to be engaged. How
complicated and ludicrous an affair
the trial was you may imagine, New
