AIDED BY MRS. PINKHAM.

Mrs. w. E. PAXTON, youngstown,
North Dakota, writes about her strug-
gle to regain health after the birth OF
her little girl:
"DEAR MRS. PINKHAM:-1t is with
pleasure that l add my testimony to
your list, hoping that it may induce
others 20 avail themselves of your val.
liable medicine. <$
"After the birth of my little girl,
three years ago, my health was very
poor. I had leucorrh9a badly, and a
terrible bearing-down pain which
gradually grew worse, until could do
no work. Also had headache nearly
all the time, and dizzy feelings. Men
situations were very profuse, appear
ing every two weeks.
"Itook medicine from good doctor,
but it seemed to do no good. I was
becoming alarmed over my condition,
when 1 read your advertisement in
paper. / sent at once for bottle of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
ponnd, and after taking two-thirds OF
the bottle I felt so much better that l
send for two more. After using three
bottles felt as strong and we'll as any
one.
II think it is the best medicine for
female weakness ever advertised, and
recommend it to every lady I meet suf-
fering from this trouble"
Maternity is a wonderful experience
and many women approach it wholly
unprepared. Childbirth under right
conditions need not terrify women.
The advice of Mrs. Pinkham is freely
offered to all expectant mothers, and
her advice is beyond question the most
valuable to be obtained. If Mrs. Pax
ton had written to Mrs. Pinkham be-
fore confinement she would have been
saved much suffering. Mrs. Pinkham's
address is Lynn. Mass.

RESPONSIBILITIES MUST Be ACCEPTED
sanator Davis Views Concerning United
States-Must Be the Equal of Any
Other Nation-Favors Retention Of
Territory Acquired.


New York, Aug. s9-The World says:
THE American people are agow with
patriotic fervor and the utmost calmness
is necessary in considering our future
course" said United States Senator
Cushman X. Davis, before leaving the
city for his home to prepare for the
journey to Paris as one of the five com
mssioners to arrange the final terms of
peace between the United States and
Spain. ''Events have made us one of
the great powers of the earth" he con-
tinued. ''Whatever we may have de-
sired ourselves, destiny has forced upon
us responsibilities we must recognize and
accept. We have become a potent
factor in the worlds progress. A greater
actual naval and military power we are
already. We are not yet strong enough,
but not an hourmust be lost in equipping
ourselves to cope with any emergency
that may confront u.s. We must have a
large regular army ready at call in the
future. We must have as good a navy
as any other nation of the earth. Here
after our power must be felt on the
Pacific ocean. China is the coveted
part of the earth s surface today, but
who could have predicted six months
ago that Russia, Germany or Japan
would not have coveted foothOld on
the North American continent. We
must police the Pacific ocean. Its
coast has been our vulnerable point. l
am on record as favoring the retention
of the territory acquired by the splendid
victories of Our arms hut my remarks
have nothing to do with the official
duties shall undertake as u commits
sioner to the peace congress at Paris.
