Lydia e. Pinkhams Vegetable Compound
made me well woman, and I feel so CRATE
full that l am glad to write and tell you of
my marvellous recovery 1t brought ma
health, new life and vitality" !
What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound did for Mrs. Ainsley it will
do for every woman who is in poor
health and ailing.
It's benefits begin when it's use begins
1t gives strength and vigor from the
start, and surely makes sick women
well and robust.
Remember Lydia E. Pinkhams Vege-
table Compound holds the record for
the greatest number of actual cures OF
wOman's ills. This fact is attested to
by the thousands of letters from CRATE
full women which are on file in the
Pinkham laboratory. Merit alone can
produce such results.
Women should remembe that a cure
for all female diseases actually exists,
and that cure is Lydia E. Pinkhams
Vegetable Compound. Take no substi-
tute.
If you have symptoms you don't
understand write to Mrs. Plnkham
Lynn, Mass, for special advice-it is
free and always helpful.

THE IDEAL WIFE
Shapes the Destiny of Men-The Influence of .
Healthy Woman Cannot Be Overestimated

Seven-eighths OF the
men in this world marry
a woman because she is
beautiful in their eyes
because she has the quail
ties which inspire admira-
'tion, respect and love.
There is a beauty in
health which is more at
tractive to men than mere
regularity of feature.
The influence of women
glorious in the possession
of perfect physical health
upon men and upon the
civilization of the world
could never be measured.
Because of them men have
attained the very heights
of ambition because Of
them even thrones have
been established and de-
stroyed.
What a disappointment,
then, to see the fair young
wife's beauty fading away
before a year passes over
her head! A sickly, half
dead-and-alive woman,
especially when she is
the mother of a family,
is a damper to all joyous
ness in the home, and a
drag upon her husband.
The cost of a wife's con-
stant illness is a serious
drain upon the funds of a

If a woman finds her energies are
tagging, and that everything tires her,
dark shadows appear under her eyes.
her sleep is disturbed by horrible
dreams; if she has backache, head
aches, bearing-down pains, nervous
ness, whites, Irregularities, or despon-
dency, she should take means to build
her system up at once by a tonic with
specific powers, such as Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound.
This great remedy for women has
done more in the way of restoring
health to the women of America than
all other medicines put together. 1t is
the safeguard of woman S health.

GREAT OVATION TO PRESIDENT.
Warmly Greeted by Abstainers and
MineWorkerSs

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Aug. u. = The
president of the United States, who
came here yesterday and made an adj
dress to the delegates attending the
annual convention of the Catholic To
tai Abstinence Union of America, was
given most enthusiastic reception.
In fact, the entire trip through New
Jersey and PENNSYLVANIA to this city
was series of ovations. But his
greatest ovation was in the Wyoming
valley, where he spent four very busy
hours. The entire valley from Schick-
shiny to Pittston took holiday to do
honor to the president. Mr.. Roosevelt
was in great good humor and enjoyed
the day as much as the most enthusi-
astic total abstainer and mineworker.
Wilkesbarre was dressed for the oc-
casion. The greatest crowd that the
municipality ever had within it's con-
fines was in the city, and it is estima-
ted the visitors numbered upward of
100000. The president arrived at 8
o'clock and was driven directly to the
speakers stand on the river common.
Besides the president, those who
spoke were Cardinal Gibbons, Mayor
Kirkendall of this city, John Mitchell,
president of the miners union, and the
Rev. j. ]. Curran. After the exercises
the president was driven about the
city, going to the Wyoming monument
and from there to Pittston, where he
boarded his special train and left for
Chautauqua at 1920 p. m.

GLOOMY At NEW ORLEANS,
Steady Augmentation in Number Of
New Gases and Sub-foci.

new orleans, Aug. 1.-THE official
record up to 6 p. m. yesterday:

Eotal cases to date. TAT
Deaths yesterday OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. S.
Total deaths to date. 1924
New sub-foci 81
Total sub-foci ISL
Cases under treatment. 1856
The situation does not look so good
in the face of such steady augmenta-
ton in the number of new cases and
number of new sub-foci. They seem
to be popping up all over town, and
the discouraging feature of yesterdays
report is that only nineteen of the six
ty-eight names are those of Italians.
Quite number of the cases appear to
be secondary infection, in sub-foci.
An exceedingly ugly center of infec-
ton was unearthed in St. Charles
parish yesterday by DR.. Corpul, of the
marine hospital service. Two days
ago he
Unearthed Six Gases
on the Diamond plantation, and yester-
day he found two more cases on that
place, and eleven cases on the Reserve
plantation, eleven miles further north,
and one case on the Sarpy plantation.
1t is believed that more than thirty
Italians have left this group in the last
week, but there is no trace of them,
nor will there be unless infection
should develop among them at their
places of refuge. Two of the cases in
Reserve plantation died while DR..
Corpul was there. This plantation be-
longs to the Godchaux estate, and DR..
Godchaux has taken charge of the sit
uation there and will carry out the in
structions of the marine hospital SER
vice.
Spread Among Residents.
Five new cases have developed in
Patterson, in ST. Mary's parish, max
ing thirty cases in all there. While
the infection was taken there by Ital-
ians from the infected district in New
Orleans, the disease has spread among
the residents and several ladies and
children are afflicted. Eight of the pa
tients are convalescent.
In view of the opposition OF some
boarding houses to entertain profess
sional nurses home will be provided
for them by DR.. Warmers committee.
