"DEAR Mrs. PMKHAx Before 7
commenced to take your medicine
was in a terrible state, wishing myself
dead a good many times. Every part
of my body seemed to pain in some
way. At time of menstruation my
suffering was something terrible L
thought there was no cure for me, but
after taking several bottles of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound al
my bad feelings were gone. I am now
well and enjoying good health shall
always praise your medicine - MRS.

Female Troubles Overcome
"DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM:- had female
trouble, painful menses, and kidney
complaint, also stomach trouble. About
a year ago 1 happened TO pick up
paper that contained an advertisement
Of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, and when 1 read how it had
helped others, 1 thought it might help
me, and decided to give it a trial I
did so, and as a result am now feeling
perfectly well. wish to thank you for
the benefit your medicine has been to
me. "-MRs. CLARA STIEBER, Diller. Neb.
No fIore Pain
"DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM Your Vege-
table Compound has been of much
benefit to me. When my menses first
appeared they were very irregular
They occurred too often and did not
leave for a week or more. l always
suffered at these times with terrible
pains in my back and abdomen. Would
be in bed for several days and would
not be exactly rational at times. I
took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, and menses became regular
and pains left me entirely. n-MRs- L.

There is man in town this week
with string of buggies which he is
Offering for prices which seem to be
very high. He claims to represent the
Spaldings, of Grinnell, Iowa, and
says that their buggies are sold on a
guarantee. Parties who have exam
lned this stock say that it is roughly
finished and old style, while the prices
are higher than good up-to-date bug
gles can be bought from our local
d callers. People should think twice
before buying anything of these trav-
cling peddlers. If this was a first
class stock it hardly seems as though
1t would be necessary to hawk it
about the country. Every dollar paid
to this class of men goes out of the
the country. Their guarantee is worth
less to the buyer, for there is no local
representative and they can only be
reached in another state. They
have no reputation to maintain in
this community, hence their interest
ceases as soon as they have got your
money. Then, again. consider the
merchants who have their money in
vested in our city, who pay taxes.
spend their money here and help to
maintain our community. They are
justly entitled to your trade. and when
you consider that they give you "a
guarantee that is good and returna BILE
on demand, that their reputatio ons for
fair dealing are at stake. and the fact
that they give you better goods for
less money, there seems to be no ex-
cuse left for throwing money away on
travelling statesmen. Patronize and
help to maintain your home institu-
tlons every time, show a little patriot
ism and show the peddler the door
every time he wants you to buy his
wares.

NEW BOOKS.

The new book by Elisha Gray, the
inventor of the telephone and the tel
aughtograph, is an event to be hailed
with delight by book lovers. He is
writing series called Natures Miri-
cles, and the first one, Earth Air
and Water, is just out. 1t is sci
entific book written for the unscien-
tific by one who realizes that the av-
erage person can only understand sci
'entific subjects when treated in fa-
miliar way. 1t is written, as the au-
thor says, for those who have not had
scientific education but who desire a
plain general view of natural science.
1t ought to find a place in every
school library and in every home
where there are young people.

VIRGINIA NEWS.

Monday evening an alteration took
place in Waterford, Loudoun county,
between Warren c. O'Hara and Ern-
est Mullen, in the presence Of a num-
Der of bystanders. After some high
words the quarrel apparently subsidized
and O'Hara turned away. Mullen,
however, seemed to suddenly become
Infatuated, and Selling baseball bat
that was lying near, struck O'Hara a
terrific blow over the head, bringing
him to his knees, and while he was in
this position again struck him a heavy
blow. O'Hara fell PROSTATE and died
in about twenty minutes, meyer having
regained consciousness. Mullen made
of, but was holly pursued by Deputy
Shelf ID. II. Vandeventer and a num-
Der of citizens, and was finally cap
tured and brought back to Waterford.
O'Hara was about 26 years old, I'M
married, and, it is said, had served
with the District Of Columbia Regi-
ment in Cuba. Mullen is apparently
not over % or y years old and is also
unmarried. He is son of Mr.. &. +.
Mullen, a worthy citizen Of Waterford,
and had hitherto been peaceable,
quiet youth. 1t is said the difficulty
grew out Of derogatory remarks made
by Mullen about a young lady friend of
O'Haras.

was comfortably seated the other day
in the friendly shade Of a magnificent
tree which stands in the front yard Of
one Of our prosperous farmers, chatting
of affairs and things i'm general, when

cious and ruinous. Just to think that
one man should dictate prices Of our
products makes ones blood boil. The
country will grow up in weeds or go to

lean"
Only dear friend" chimed in, "the
trouble with you is that you don't read
the HERALD week after week, for if
you did you would learn that a num-
Der of Soutbside Virginia farmers are
doing remarkably well, and that some
Of them are making more money ON
the capital invested than any other
farmers of the land. And you not only
don't read the HERALD, but you don't
read the bank statements, for if you
did you would know that deposits in
banks have greatly increased of late,
and upon further inquiry you would
know that much Of the money so de-
posted belong to farmers" This last
statement stirred him to fever heat
and he said with increased emphasis:
"Just so, everything is going from the
country to the city making the rich
richer and the poor poorer" And, l
ventured to say "whose fault is that?
Is some despot enthroned in each OF
our banks compelling country people
To crowd their Golfers and make and
keep empty country pockets? Why is
it that the farmer with a surplus pre-
fers to trust a bank rather than a
ueighbor with real estate security ?"

used August Flower TO clean out the
