An
Invitation
ia
Women

All the world knows of the wonder.
full cures which have been made by
Lydia Il. Pinkham's Vegetable Conn
pound. yet some women do not realize
that all that is claimed for it is abso-
lutely true.
If all suffering women could be made
to believe that Mrs. Pinkham can do
all she says she can, their suffering
would be at an end, for they would
at once profit by her advice and be
cured.
There is no more puzzling thing than
that women will suffer great pain
month after month when every woman
knows of some woman whom Mrs.
Pinkham has helped, as the letters
from grateful women are constantly
being published at their own request.
The same arrangements which make
painful or irregular periods with
dull backaches and headaches, and
dragging-down sensations, presently
develop into those serious inhamma-
tions of the feminine organs which
completely wreck health.
Mrs. Pinkham invites women to
write freely and confidentially to her
about their health and get the benefit
OF her great experience with the suf-
ferings of women. No living person
can advise you so well. No remedy in
the world has the magnificent record
of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound for absolute cures of female
ills. Mrs. Pinkham's address is Lynn,

not wanting that it will The comfort OF the
khaki hat for instance, has been an experience
too prolonged in many cases to be lightly left

TACKLED THE Chief
Prisonerin Police Court Starts
a General Fight.
BROKE FOR THE STREET
Insurrection at the City Hall
Yesterday.

For about five minutes yesterday after
police court. A prisoner named T. S. Van
Trees, who was on trial for selling stolen
property, did not like the testimony
against him given by by Chief of Police
Cubbon, and accused the chief of giving
false testimony. He wanted to lick the
chief and jumped up and said that he
could lick anybody who laid hands on
him. Mr.. Cubbon walked over to where
he stood and tried to quiet him, but Van
Trees did not like that kind Of treatment
and grabbed the chief by the wrist. Cub
bon closed in on him, and. in trying to
get a good hold, pushed Van Trees back
ward over the railing that divides the
court room. Van Trees fell on his back
on the other side, and Cubbon was lean
ing over trying to keep his hold, when
another man, named James, grabbed the
chief by the throat and pulled him off.
By the time Assistant Chief Park Massey,
Clerk Oliver and Officer McMillin. who
were all in the Office, came running in
and took charge of Van Trees and James,
The chief ordered the men to be locked
up and had just turned away when Van
Trees made a break for the door that
leads from the court room to the corridor
and succeeded in getting out. All of the
officers and several Of the spectators made
q rush after him. However, Van Trees
had a good start and would have gotten
to the street if he had not run for the
north door, which happened to be out Of
repair and was locked. Chief Cubbon
had at once gone to the west entrance.
and, as Van Trees came around through
the basement. headed him off. Van Trees
did not want to fight so bad by this time
but still put up quite a struggle before he
gave up. He and James were taken to the
jail and locked up. They will both be
brought up for contempt of court tomor-
row at o'clock
