Common
Sense
Talk with
Women

If a person is i'll and needs a medi-
cline is it not wise to get one that has
stood the test of time and has hum
dreds of thousands of cures to its
credit?
A great many women who are Ill try
everything they hear of in the way Of
medicine, and this experimenting with
unknown drugs is constant menace
to their already impaired health.
This seems to us very unwise, for
there are remedies which are no ex-
periments and have been known years
and years to be doing only good.
Take for ms lance Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compounds; for thirty
years its record has been one un-
broken chain of success. No medicine
for female ills the world has over
known has such record for cures.
1t seems so strange that some people
will take medicines about which they
really know nothing, some of which
might be, and are, really harmful !;
while on the other hand it is easily
proved that over one million women
have been restored to health by Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
We have published in the news
papers of the United States more
genuine testimonial letters than have
ever been published in the interest OF
any other medicine.
All this should, and does, produce q
spirit of confidence in the hearts Of
women which is difficult to dislodge,
and when they are asked to take some
thing else they say, mo, we want

pound, which has been tried, and
never found wanting, whose reliability
Is established far beyond the expert

ON BAR AND ROCK.
Numerous Wrecks Reported
Along New England Coast.
Schooners Ashore at Cape Elizabeth
and Kittery--Total Losses.
Schooner on Peaked Hill Bars Bath
Schooner in Collision.

Portland, Me, oct. THE schoon-
er Eastern Queen was wrecked
Friday night on the cape shore
near the life saving station
About 6 O'Clock the wind
which had been light from the north.
suddenly hauled into the east and blew
a gale inside Of half an hour. Several
schooners were at the entrance to the
harbor and barely got inside before
the gale reached its full fury.
The Eastern Queen was driven ashore
in spite of all efforts Of her captain
and crew. She went on the rocks in
sight of the life saving crew, who made
haste to rescue the sailors. All were
taken ashore and it was necessary 10
leave the vessel to her fate. Her com
mander was Captain Ray.
The schooner was so tons burden and
-masted. She was bound from Bos-
ton TO Gardiner and was light. She is
still on the rocks and il is expected
that she will be a total loss. She was
built in Eden in 1871 ana was owned
in Ellsworth.
