waste matter which lies in the alimentary
canal where it decays and poisons the en-
death under the name of some other dis
ease. Note the deaths from typhoid fever

Mr.. Macpherson practiced the remedy

Then came the gas inspector on his

looked at the entry Tor the previous quar-.

Thousands of Women
ARE MADE WELL AND STRONG
Success Of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound Rests Upon the Fact that Il
Really Does Make Sick Women Well

Thousands upon thousands of Ameri-
can women have been restored to
health by Lydia E. Pinkhams Vegeta-
BILE Compound. Their letters are on file
in Mrs. Pinkhams Office, and prove this
statement to be fact and not a mere
boast.
Overshadowing indeed is the success
of this great medicine, and compared
with it all other medicines and treat
ment for women are experiments.
Why has Lydia e. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound accomplished its wide
spread results for good?
Why has it lived and thrived and
done its glorious work for quarter of
a century?
Simply and surely because Of its ster-
ling worth. The reason no other med
icine has even approached it's success
is plainly and positively because there
is no other medicine in the world SO
good for women's ills.
The wonderful power of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound over
the diseases of womankind is not be-
cause it is astimulant-not because it is
palliative. but simply because it is
the most wonderful tonic and recon-
structor ever discovered to act directly

Marvellous cures are reported from
all parts of the country by women who
have been cured, trained nurses who
have witnessed cures, and physicians
who have recognized the virtue in
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, and are fair enough to give
credit where it is due. If physicians
dared to be frank and open, hundreds
of them would acknowledge that they
constantly prescribe Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound in severe
cases of female ills, as they know by
experience that it will effect cure.
Women who arr troubled with painful
or irregular menstruation, backache,
bloating Tor fiatulence), leucorrhea,

1ESTERDATs STOCK MARKET
IrreguIar and Uneven Up to an Abrupt
 General Fall in Prices.

New York, Oct. 25.-To-day's active
 market was irregular and uneven up
 to the abrupt general fall in prices in
 the final hour of trading, and the con-
 fiicting currents in the market were so
 striking at times as to give it de-
 cidedly feverish tone. Speculative in
 terest centered on the group of coaIers,
 in which there was some degree of ex-
 citenent, and an advance to record
 prices in important members of the
 group, including Reading, Delaware &
 Hudson and Central Railroad of New
 Jersey. No actual news was f6rthcom-
 ing to explain the movement beyond
 general considerations bearing on the
 trade; but many surmises were afioat
 as a result of the large demand for
 Lehigh Valley in Philadelphia. That
 conpanys recent purchase of the
 Coxe Brothers company, and the ac-
 compaqying movement in the other
 coalers gave rise to the conjecture
 mat more effective combination is
 working out in the group of properties,
 already very closely bound together.
 Reports that the Delaware & Hudson
 mad secured an option on the Wilkes
 barre & Eastern were declared to be
 without foundation by the present owners of that property. Some of the Specialties received further attention

SAKHALIN ISLAND.
Territory to Which Peace Envoys
Have Attached Much Importance.

Territory to Which Peace Envoye
Have Attached Much Importance.
Sakhalin island is strip of territory
GO miles long. At its southern extrem-
ity it is separated from the japanese
island Of Yezo by La Perouse strait,
twenty-seven miles wide. At its north
ern tip, where it inclines Slightly toward
the Asiatic coast, it is but five miles
from the Russian mainland. At this
point it controls the estuary of the Amur
river. Virtually the whole littoral of
Amur province is sheltered from the
open ocean by this island, much as Con-
necticut is sheltered behind Long Island.
Together with the Kurile archipelago,
which belongs to Japan, Sakhalin forms
an irregular letter V, Of which the base
rests on La Perouse, the two arms in
closing the sea of Okhotsk.
In seeking to account for the impor-
tance which attaches to this bleak and
desolate possession, it is necessary to
keep these facts in mind. Sakhalin is
the last link needed to complete the
chain OF japanese possessions which
screens the entire Siberian and Chinese
seaboard from the Amur to about the lat
itude of the Philippines. With this link
in its possession, Japan would have the
Sea of Japan completely hemmed in on
the northeast, while its control of the
Sea of Okhotsk would be equally secure.
Russia's opportunities for using the
mouth of the Amur would depend on the
dictates of Japan, holding territory on
the other shore within gunshot of the
mainland. That Japan should covet
this island as essential to its complete
control of the Asiatic littoral is not sur
pressing. Furthermore, Japan owned it
half century ago and was crowded out
by Russia.
