that the system requires attention.

symptoms of an inward trouble which

some uterine arrangement. Nature
requires assistance and at once, and
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com

powers in all those peculiar ailments of
women. 1t has been the standby of
intelligent American women for twenty
years. and the ablest specialists agree
that 1t is the most universally success

medicine.
The following letters from Mrs.
Holmes and Mrs. Cotrely are among
the many thousands which Mrs. Pink
ham has received this year from those
whom she has relieved.
Surely such testimony is convincing.
Mrs. J. G. Holmes, of Larimore, North
Dakota, writes:
Dear Mrs Pinkham:-

LAND I'LL HAVE TO HUSTLE.

A prominent lawyer of Chicago
recently advertised for an Office boy
in the classified columns OF the
dailles. STIMULATING that the appli,
cant must state his qualifications in
his own handwriting and not come
in person.
Among the letters he received
was the following:
"dear sir My pa is dead aud am
eleven years old, My mother
washes and want the Job, so can
help her. am only boy but l
have got to ack like a man now and
hustle. it beats hel how hard times

Something in that note caught
the lawyer just right and that boy
got the position.
He is holding it down, too, with
absolute satisfaction to his employ

will not be surprised to see him
one of the leading lawyers of that
