average politician is going to do by
listening to what he says and betting
that he will do the other thing, but
occasionally he will fool you by telling
the truth.

creameries take the place of machines
standing in the field; when people are
willing to acknowledge the truth even

SINGULAR STATEMENT.
From Mrs. Rank to Mrs. Pinkham.

The following letter to Mrs. Pink
ham from Mrs. M. RANK, No. 1884
East Susquehanna Ave-, Philadelphia,
Pa, is remarkable statement of re-
lief from utter disbursement. She
says:
81 never can find words with which
to thank you for what Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound has done
for me.
"Some years ago had womb trouble
and doctored for long time, not see
ing any Improvement. At times 1
would feel well enough, and other
times was miserable. So it went on
until last October, 1 felt something
terrible creeping over me, knew not
what, but kept getting worse 1 can
hardly explain my feelings at that
time. l was so depressed in spirits
that did not wish to live, although 1
had everything to live for. Had hys-
terra, was very nervous; could not
sleep and was not safe to be left
alone.
Indeed, 1 thought would lose nv
mind. No one knows what endured.
p" continued this way until the last
of February, when saw in a paper a
testimonial of lady whose case was
similar to mine, and who had been
cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's vegeta-
BILE Compound. determined to try it,
and felt better after the first dose. 1
continued taking it, and to-day am a
well woman, and can say from my
heart, Thank God for such a medi-
cine"
Mrs. Pinkham invites all suffering
women to write to her at Lynn, Mass,
for advice. All such letters are seen
and answered by women only.

AN AVERAGE VERDICT.
1t Was Struck Through a Difference
of Opinion Among the Jury
on Damages.
Americas Greatest Medicine.

While the lawyers were waiting for court
to open, and before they flew at each others
threats, they exchanged a few stories of the
profession.
''The strangest trial in which was ever
engaged was one of my first" said grizzled-
headed attorney. II was counsel for the
plaintiff in suit brought to recover damages
caused by a runaway horse. My client had
been knocked down and slightly bruised, not
very much, just enough to base lawsuit
on. L had very strong case: in fact, there
was practically no defense, and the defend
ant was rich man, so asked for 81, 900, hop
ing to get half. WE'LL when the jury came
in they rendered verdict for the plaintiff
with damages assessed at $8,6S7. OF course
the judge promptly set the verdict aside as
excessive, and l had to begin all over again.
Some days later | met the foreman Of the
Jury and asked him how in the world they
arrived at such verdict.
".Well, / don't quite understand it my
self he said, scratching his head. we
all agreed for the plaintiff on the first vote,
but each fellow had his own ideas as to the
damage. l was in favor of 81 ,00O another
fellow thought it ought to be 50 900, and an
other stuck out for 500, and we were get
ting all tangled up, when one of the jury sug-
gested that we strike an average

right and l added them together know
there does seem to be something wrong
about that verdict, but hanged if I can see
where it is!'"-Chicago Times Herald.
