Stop! Wonel

And consider that in addressing Mrs.
Pinkham you are confiding your private
Ills to % woman--a woman whose ex-
perience in treating woman's diseases
is greater than that of any living ply
stefan, male or female.
You can talk freely to woman when
1t is revolving to relate your private
troubles to man; besides, man does
not understand, simply because he is
man.
MRS. PINKHAM'S STANDING
INVITATION.
Women suffering from any form Of
female weakness are invited topromptly
communicate with Mrs. Pinkham. at
LYNN, Mass. All letters are re-
ceived, opened, read, and answered by
women only. A woman can freely
talk of her private illness to a woman.
Thus has been established the eternal
confidence between Mrs. Pinkham and
the women of America which has never
been broken. Out of the vast volume
of experience which she has to draw
from, 1t Is more than possible that she
has gained the very knowledge that
will help your case. She asks nothing
in return except your good will, and
her advice has relieved thousands
Surely any woman, rich or poor, Is very
foolish If she does not take advantage

How piatt Got tVea

The death OF Mai. Geo Hill, IT.. last
week. recalls the circumstances under
which the old Georgetown post Office
of which Mai. Hill was for years the
head. was abolished. Mr. Hill and the
late Dom Piatt, publisher OF the CAPITAL,
had a disagreement over paper bill,
which found its way into the local courts
and finally resulted, we believe, in favor
of Piatt The insntuting Of the SUIT so
angered the testy editor that he de-
ternlineo to get even with Hill by having
the Georgetown and Washington offices
consolidated, and thus deprive Maj.
Hill of a snug sinecure. Petitions were
printed and circulated, canvassers were
hired to secure signatures, and prominent
men were induced to advocate the
measure, ignorant Of course OF the
, motives and oi the man behind the whole
movement Piatt was slick and re-
NAMED in the background. The scheme
was successful. the station at Georgetown
was made a branch OF the Washington
office, Piatt got even with Hill, and the
Major died possibly--hardly probably
without Knowing who to thank for the
loss Of his office
