author was Immediately rearrested and
conveyed to a place of confinement
pending deportation to some distant
city or province, where his continued
residence, it is thought, will not be so
dangerous to the welfare of the gov
eminent as it would be here in St
Petersburg.
The release of NJ. Gorky was effected
by order Of Governor General Trepoff.
after the friends Of the writer had
overcome obstacle after obstacle and
had won the grudging assent of the
hierarchy and officials to the signing
Of the mandate admitting him 10 bail.
The rearrest also was the act of the
all-powerful governor general, who is
unwilling to allow such frebrand to
be at large In the capital OF which he
is practically the supreme ruler.
NJ. Gorky knew nothing of the gov,
ernor generals decision when the
doors of the cell which had been his
home for the past five weeks swung
open. His disappointment, therefore
was pitiable when, just as he was
passing out OF the great gate of the
fortress of St Peter and st. Paul, he
was again placed under arrest 1His
appearance indicated that his health
had suffered from the effects of his
confinement even though the rigors oi

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

Thousands upon thousands of Ameri-
can women have been restored to
health by Lydia e. Pinkham S Vegeta-

in Mrs. Pinkham's Office, and prove this
statement to be a fact and not a mere
boast.
Overshadowing indeed is the success
of this great medicine, and compared
with it all other medicines and treat

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 a quarter of
a century?
Simply and surely because of its ster-
ling worth. The reason no other med
icine has even approached its 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

cause it is stimulant-not because it is
a palliative, but simply because it is

who have recognized the virtue in

credit where it is due. If physicians
dared to be franl, and open, hundreds
of them would acknowledge that they
constantly prescribe Lydia D.. Pink
