THEY WANT TO TELL
These Grateful Women Who Have Been Helped by Mrs. Pinkham.

Women who have suffered severely and been relieved of their ills by Mrs. Pinkham's advice and medicine arc constantly urging publication of their statements for the benefit of other wo- men. Here are two such letters:
 Mrs. LIZZIE BEVERLY, 25S Merrimac St., Lowell, Mass, writes:
 ''It affords me great pleasure to tell all suffering women of the benefit have received from taking Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound. 1canhard 1y find words toexpress my gratitude for what she has done for me. My trouble was ulceration of the womb Twas un- der the doctors care. Upon examina- ton he found fifteen very large ulcers, but he failed to do me good. Itook sew, eral bottles of Lydia B. Pinkham's Vege- table Compound, also used the Sanative Wash, and am cured. Mrs. Pinkhams medicine saved my life, and I would recommend it to all suffering women"
 Mrs. AMOS TRoMBLEAY, Ellenburgh Ctr, N. Y.. writes:
 1T took cold at the time my baby was born, causing me to have milk legs, and was sick in bed for eight weeks. Doctors did me no good. I surely thought would die. I was al- so troubled with falling of the womb. could not eat, had faint spells as often as ten times a day. One day lady came to see me and told me of the benefit she had derived from taking Lydia E. Pinkham's medicine, and ad- vised me to try it. I did so, and had taken only half a bottle before I was able to sit in a chair. After taking three bottles could do my own work. l am now in perfect health."

sEIDL'S GRAND ORCHESTRA
VIII Give Concert in Wheeling, Under
Certain Conditions.


Manager Riester, of the Opera
House, yielding to the opportunities
of many of the music-loving patrons
of that theatre, has decided to make
an effort to bring Anton Seidl's Grand
Orchestra here, provided he receives
the proper encouragement. The or
cheStra, which is the finest musical
organization in the United States, and
ranks among the finest in the world.
will give a concert in Pittsburg during
the week of April 25th.
Manager Riester has learned
through correspondence with the man
agement that he can secure a date
during that week, but the orchestra
viii require a very large guarantee, so
large in fact that Mr.. Riester cannot
see his way clear to engage this at
traction.
1t is not the desire of the Opera
House management to make money
on the engagement of Seidls Orches-
ira, but rather to provide the best at
traction in the country for lovers of
high class music. For the purpose Of
ascertaining the sentiment of the
musical people, subscription lists have
been opened and may be found in the
office of the German Fire Insurance
Company. The price of general adj
mission tickets will be two dollars,
balcony $3.50. Sixty tickets have al
ready been guaranteed.

before mentioned. That the said Jacob
Snyder, both before and after the
making of the said paper writing, was
unable to remember from day to day
what had taken place in his presence.

connectedly what had occurred within
day of such attempt

the adjournment Of said Court as
aforesaid, she was informed, and she
charges that it was fact, unknown to
her until after said term had ended,
that in pursuance Of the said negotia-
lions and compromise, number Of
valuable papers which were valuable
evidence of the plaintiff upon the trial
of and issue as to the probate of said
will, had been delivered up by the said
contestants to the said proponents of
the said will, and that the said papers
contained written statements of the
said Jacob Snyder of his intention and
purpose of disposing of his property
and estate in manner different from
the disposition of his property and es-
tate in manner different from the
disposition thereof contained in said
alleged paper writing, and to provide
for practically equal divisions thereof
among all of his children. Plaintiff
had no knowledge or information and
no means of obtaining, by any effort
she could have made, any knowledge
or information Of the said papers, or
of their contents before the adjourn

she for the first time ever heard OF
said papers or their contents"
The bill OF complaint is very long,
covering sixteen pages of typewriter
legal cap, and contains host OF de-
tails and allegations not here repro
duced for lack Of space.

course will rival in public interest
