Hearing how Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
| Compound had saved other women from
serious operations decided TO try 1t, and in
less than four months was entirely cured !;
and words fail to express my thankfulness."
Miss Margret Merkley of 275 Sd
Street, Milwaukee, Wis, writes
Dear Mrs. Pinkham.-
"Loss Of strength, extreme nervousness
severe shooting pains through the pelvic
organs, cramps, bearing down pains and
| extreme irritation compelled me to seek
medical advice The doctor, after making
an examination, said that had ovarian trou-
bic and liberation, and advised an operation
as my only hope. To this strongly objected
and decided as q last resort TO try Lydia
E. Pinhham's Vegetable Compound.
To my surprise the liberation healed, all
the bad symptoms disappeared and am once
more strong, vigorous and welli and can
not express my thanks for what II has done
for me-"
Ovarian and womb troubles are
steadily on the increase among women
and before submitting 20 an opera
ton every woman should try Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and
write Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass
for advice.
For thirty years Lydia z. Pinlham's
Vegetable Compound has been curing
the worst forms OF female complaints,
all ovarian troubles, Inflammation, ul-
oeration, falling and displacement OF
the womb, leucorrhea, Irregularities,
indigestion and nervous prostration.
Any woman who could read the many
grateful letters on file In Mrs. Pink
hams Office would be convinced of the
efficiency Of her advice and Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

The Height OF Waves.


Owing TO many causes the ocean is
never still. The wind is one Of the
chief disturbers, for it gives rise 10
waves. The effect Of an ordinary
storm is not felt below a depth Of hf-
ty feet, and beneath 700 feet the wa
ter can only be disturbed by tides and
undercurrents. When you read Of
"waves running mountains high" you
may be sure the writer has never seen
a mountain, but has q fine aow OF
words. The usual height Of q wave
in common storms seldom is more
than twelve feet and in violent gales
on the open ses never exceeds fifty
feet from trough TO crest and length
Of about 600 feet. In the South Pa
ci6c waves forty-three feet in height
have been measured, in the South At
lsntic thirty-nine feet. in the Bay Of
Biscsy thirty-six feet. in the North
sea and the Mediterranean thirteen
feet. OF course nearer land, when
driven furiously against an obstacle.
such az lighthouse. waves often dash
against the top Of the lighthouse, such
az the Bell Rock, 100 feet. and Unst
in the shetlands, 200 feet. But in
the deep ses, even in a bowling tenn
pest, they never run higher than fifty
feet, which would be very poor
