PARALYSIS CURED
Case Seemed Hopeless but Yielded to
Or. Williams Pink Pills.

Mr.. Kenney has actually escaped from
the paralytic' s fate to which he seemed a
short time ago hopelessly doomed. The
surprising report has been fully verified
and some important details secured in a
personal interview with the recent suf-
ferer.
"The doctor, said Mr.. Kenney, ''told
me that if | wanted to live any length
of time l would have to give up work al
together, and he told my friends that
the paralysis which had begun would in
time involve my whole body"
Just how were you afflicted at this
time? 2" Mr.. Kenney vas asked.
"Well l had first hot, and then cold
and clammy feelings, and at times my
body felt as if needles were being stuck
into it. These sensations were followed
by terrible pains, and again Iwould have
no feeling at all, but a numbness would
come over me, and would not be able to
move. The most agonizing fortunes came
from headaches and a pain III the spine.

When a physician tells a woman, suf-
fering from ovarian Or womb trouble,
that an operation is necessary 1t, 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 hat she
must undergo an operation, she felt
that her death knell had sounded.
Our hospitals are full of Women
who are there for ovarian or womb
operations!
1t 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 f. 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:-
:" cannot find words to express nav thank
for the good Lydia K. Pinkham's Vegetabl,
Compound did me. The doctor said I coulC
not get well unless / had an operation fo
ovarian and female troubles. / knew / coulC
not stand the strain of an operation and mad,

YOU have NO RIGHT
To Suffer from Constipation, Bowel
and Stomach Tr0ubIe.
J. What Is the beginning Of sickness
;. Constipation.
J. What is Constipation

9. What is the beginning Of sickness
A. Constipation.
=. What Is Constipation?
A. Failure Of the bowels to carry off the
waste matter which lies In the alimentary
canal where 1t decays and poisons the en-
tire system. Eventually the results are
death under the name Of some other dis
ease. Note the deaths from typhoid fever
and appendicitis, stomach and bowel trou-
bic, at the present time.
=. What causes Constipation?
A. Neglect TO respond to the call of Ma
ture promptly. Lack Of exercise. Excess
sive brain work. Mental emotion and i'm
proper diet.
Q. What are the results Of neglected
Constipation?
A. Constipation causes more suffering
than any other disease. 1t causes rheuma-
tism, colds, fevers, stomach, bowel, kidney,
lung and heart troubles, etc. 1t Is the one
disease that starts all others. Indigestion,
dyspepsia, diarrhea, loss of sleep and
strength are it's symptoms-piles, Appendix
citis, and fstula. are caused by COnstipa-
ton. Its consequences are known to all
physicians, but few sufferers realize their
condition until 1t is too late. Women be-
come confirmed invalids as a result Of o.
stipation.
Q. Do physicians recognize this?
A. Yes. The first question your doctor
asks you Is Are you Constipated?" That
is the secret.
Q. Can it be cured?
A. Yes, with proper treatment. The
common error Is TO resort TO physics, SuCl
as pills, salts, mineral water, castor oil,
injections, etc, every one Of which is In
furious. They weaken and increase the
malady. You know this by your own ex-
pcrienCe.
Q. What then should be done to cure 1T
A. Get q bottle of Mulls Grape Tonic at
once. Mull's Grape Tonic will positively
cure Constipation and stomach trouble in
the shortest space Of time. No other REM
edy has before been known to cure Con-
stipation positively and permanently.
q. What is Mulrs Grape TonicI
A. 1t is a compound with 40 per cent
Of the juice OF Concord Grapes. 1t exerts
q peculiar strengthening, healing influence
upon the intestines, so that they can do
their work unaided. The process is grad
uaI, but sure. 1t is not a physic. 1t Is
unlike anything else you have ever used.
but it cures Constipation, Dysentery, Stom-
ach and Bowel trouble Having a rich,
fruity grape flavor, 1t is pleasant to take.
AS a tonic IL is unequalled, insuring the
system against disease. 1t strengthens and
builds up waste tissue.
Q. Where can Mull's Grape Tonic be
had?
A.. Your druggist sells 1t. The dollar
bottle contains nearly three times the so
cent size.
Good for ailing children and nursing
mothers.
A free bottle to all who have never used
II. because we know II will cure you.

Hearing how Lydia z. 2inkham's Vegetable
Compound had saved other women from
serious operations | decided TO try it, and inI

Miss Margret Merkley of 275 Sd

Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
Loss of strength, extreme nervousness,
severe shooting pains through the pelvic
organs, cramps, bearing down pains, and

Z. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

the bad symptoms disappeared, and am once

These are used instead of separate cards,
even when the mother does not actually
her daughters, the theory be-
ing tina they do not visit without their
mothers formal consent and approval, and
that their friends are hers.
The prefix must be on the cards of all
unmarried women, and Of girls as o as
the latter are old enough to have visiting
cards. The prefix Mr.. or whatever title
he has, must be used on the cards of men.
A widow continues to use the name or
her husband, although If one wishes the
maiden name can be resumed preceding
her unmarried name. This, however, Is
not sanctioned by the best usage, and is
rarely done. Mourning cards are supposed
to be for two years, and longer If one
wishes. but in the latter case the border is
extremely narrow. During the first year
it is supposed TO be about three-eighths of
an inch wide, decreasing a trite in the
second year. The newest mourning call
ing cards for this season are oblong, being
made of glazed linen.
