some honest-looking, harmless cans of
buttermilk in his pinc-made wagon
which he was in the habit of bringing
daily into Atlanta. He had spied the
revenue officers from the distance on
this particular morning, and, hating
his team, jumped out. When the Off
GERS reached the hilltop he was off In

The following letter to Mrs. Pink
ham from Mrs. NJ. RANK, No. 2,354
East Susquehanna Ave, Philadelphia,
Pa, is a remarkable statement of re-
lief from utter discouragement. 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 I had womb trouble
and doctored for a long time, not see
ing any improvement. At times /
would feel well enough, and other
times was miserable. So it went on
terrible creeping over me, l knew not
what, but kept getting worse. | can
hardly explain my feelings at that
time. [ was so depressed in spirits
that I did not wish to live, although |
had everything to live for. Had hys-
terra, was very nervous; could not
sleep and was not safe to be left
alone.
Indeed, l thought l would lose my
mind. No one knows what endured.
81 continued this way until the last
of February, when l saw in paper
testimonial of lady whose case was
similar to mine, and who had been
\eured by Lydia Z. Pinkham's Vegeta-
BILE Compound. | determined to try it,
and felt better after the first dose. |
continued taking it, and to-day am a
well woman, and can say from my
heart, Thank God for such a medi-
cine"

the work of the dynamite crui-
ser Vesuvius at Santiago must
be more than edualed by the
terror it inspires in the enemy.
The Spaniards, who lie awake
nights listening for its three
terrible explosions, have al
ready named it the Hurler of
Earthquakes. The name is a
good one. and it indicates the
moral effect these nightly olasts
of $50 pound torpedoes and
guncotton must have. There
is something uncanny, as well
as terrible. about the secrecy
with which the Vesuvius can
work. With all lights out it
steams silently under the shad-
ows of the cliffs. Then there is
a little gasping cough. scarcely
audible on the shore, and a
couple of seconds later a vol
canic explosion shakes the is
land and illumines the whole
region. Where that bolt strikes

the rocks are annihilated. Yet
there has been no fash from
