 If circumstances made it impos- sible for me to lie down, l spent hours iL great misery.
 T refused to really believe it was the coffee until finally l thought a trial would at least do no harm. so l quit coffee in 1901 and began on Pos tum. My troubles left entirely and convinced me of the cause.

now the eager throngs gather about the ghastly relic and wonder if Stand ard oil ever was poured upon the trou- bled waters of the Nile in the days of the great Rameses. Irreverent visitors have named this the Rockefeller Mummy" and some of the jokes made at it's expense and at the expense of MT Rockefeller are even ghastlier than the mummy itself.
 There appears to be something un- cannily irresistible about this mummy. People frequently stand and gaze at it for several minutes at a time. and turn away only to go back and have another look Near by is a row of sales booths. where foreign ladies and gentlemen seek to sell all manner of oriental fneries. and behind one coun- ter stands a buXom matron from Stamboul whose method of attracting attention to her wares is to cry: Have look! Have a look, Have a look, The visiting public has mis taken this 10 mean have a look al the mummy. and many persona are at tracted to The Egyptian deceased by this means There are several othei mummiaa, some of them much prettieI than the one with the peculiar resem b!ance. bu; they are still sWathed 1T their cerements and attract sc&nt at t.ntlou.

It is also the ghastliest human relic ever exposed 10 view in the northwest Ordinarily when a mum my is put on exhibition one may see only the exterior wrappings Through the thick swathings of mummy cloth the eye may not penetrate, and it Is only taken for granted that the re- mains of human being are inside But this particular mummy is start. lingly visible to the naked eye.

 Egyptian writings on the wrappings and on the surface of the wooden cof. fin have been partly deciphered by learned men, who aver that this relic is the mummy of rich nabob of the Nile country. who lived about 2.500 years before the beginning of the Chris tian era. The mummy. therefore, is about 4,400 years old.
 A visitor to the exposition. however. who knows nothing about hieroglyphic writings or the history of money making along the Nile. stopped in front of the exposed mummy some days ago and looked long and intently al the face and bald skull

When a physician tells a woman. suf- fering from ovarian or womb trouble. that an operation is necessary it, of course. frightens her.
 The very thought of the operating table and the knife strikes terror to her heart. As one woman expressed it, when told by her physician that she must undergo an operation. she felt that her death kneTf had sounded.
 Our hospitals are full of women who are there for ovarian or womb operationsi
 It is quite true that these troubles may reach a stage where an operation is the only resource, but such cases are much rarer than is generally supposed, because a great many women have been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham s Vegetable Compound after the doctors had said an operation must be per formed. In fact, up to the point where the knife must be used to secure instant relief, this medicine is certain to help.
 The strongest and most grateful statements possible to make come from women who, by taking Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound, have escaped serious operations.
 Margrite Ryan. Treasurer of St. An. drew's Society, Hotel English, Indian. apolis, Ind. writes of her cure as follows Dear Mrs Pinkham:-
 ''I cannot find words to express my thanks for the good Lydia F.. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound did me. Tie doctor said 1 could not get well unless 1 had an operation for ovarian and female troubles. l knew could not stand the strain of an operation and made up my mind l would be an invalid for life

LOSS OF APPETITE
Gold Sweats, Twitchine Nerves and Weakness Cured by pr. Williams
 Pink Pills

Nature punishes every infractiou of her laws, and careless habits easily lead to the condition described by MT. Will St Joseph, Mo. Mir. Browne IS all ex- pert timer in the employ of the National Biscuit Co. He gives the following ac- count of trying experiences:
 |" In the spring of 1902, he says, "while was regularly working at my trade, grew somewhat careless in my habits of eating and drinking, and finally fonnd that my appetite was tickle, bad taste fingered i'll my mouth, my nerves twitched and were beyond my control, my kidneys were ont of order and cold sweats would break out over my body at odd times. Perhaps, while stood talk ing with some one, this trembling of the limbs. and profuse sweating, and a severe chill would seize me. 1 became alarmed at my condition and, having read an endorsement of Dr. Williams Pink Pills, got a box and began to use them. They helped me at once. After l had used one box the twitching of the nerves, the trouble with the stomach and the cold sweats stopped and have not reappeared, and my appetite is good. have told all my friends that Dr. Will. liams' Pink Pills cured me and recom- mend them to everybody"
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills cured Mir. Browne because nothing can strengthen the nerves except good rich. red blood and Dr. Williams Pink Pills actually make new blood. They don't act on the bowels. They don't bother with mere symptoms. They drive from the blood the cause of anamia, indigestion, ner- yeus disorders. general weakness and the troubles of growing girls and women.
 The pills are guaranteed to be free from opiates or harmful drugs. Sold by all druggists, or by the Dr. Williams Medicine Compauy. Schenectady. N Y.
