Consistency.

Herbert McFadden, at the funeral
directors annual convention in Phila,
delphia, declared consistency to be an
overrated virtue.
Because" he said, 1--WE held the
French method of embalming to be the
best ten years ago, must we, for con-
sistency's sake, stick to the French
method now, when we know that the
American method in every way sur
passes it?
these upholders of consistency
would go as far as the widow who
wanted to have her husband Gre
mated.
"She took the corpse to the ere
matory, and the manager Of the place
said to her:
1--WE cremate here. madam, in both
ways
"'Both ways she repeated, con-
fused
Yes he explained. The French
way and the Italian way. Which dc
you prefer?'
ooh the widow answered, bright
ening, the French. The French, by
all means. Poor John never could
bear Italian cooking. Buffalo En-

Good Excuse for Putting Chair From

"That," said Thomas f. Ryan, reor'

Mr.. Ryan was discussing a Wall

roughly handled a railroad man The
financier had come forth with an
excuse for his conduct, and 1t was
this excuse that Mr.. Ryan was con
demning.
"a poor excuse" he repeated. by
no means a sufficient excuse In the
eyes Of the railroad man.
THAT railroad man feels, l suppose
like another misused man whom

where the American people will
draw their supply of hard wood from

tion," said William J. Tisdale of Bay
City. Walnut has practically disap'
peared from the face of the earth,
commercially speaking, and oak, ash
and cherry will go the same way in
another quarter or half century
They are fast being cut down and
nothing is done to renew the supply.
"The day is not far distant when
the world will look to the vast forests
of Siberia, South America and Africa
for hard wood, and even this appar.
emily limitless supply must some day
be exhausted. There is a big guam
tity there yet, as the manufacturing in
those regions is quite limited, but
when the sawmills of America get to
work on them they can't survive long.
There are many mills In Michigan
and in other states that use up fifty
acres of timber in one day and get
away with twenty-five square miles OF

"That Is fast work and the forests

or five, that the supply of oak, ash

Brigham Says
MANY PHYSICIANS PRESCRIBE

Vegetable Compound

The wonderful power of Lydia e.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound over
the diseases of womanlkind is not be-
cause it is q stimulant, not because it
is palliative. but simply because 1t is
the most wonderful tonic and recon-
structor ever discovered to act directly
upon the generative organs, positively
curing disease and restoring health and
vigor.
Marvellous cures are reported from
all parts of the country by women who
have been cured, trained nurses who
have witnessed cures and physicians
who have recognized the virtue of
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, and are fair enough to give
credit where it is due.
If physicians dared to be frank and
open, hundreds of would acbnowl-
edge that they constantly prescribe
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound in severe cases of female ills, as
they know by experience it can be re-
lied upon to effect cure. The follow
ing letter proves it.
DR.. S. G. Brigham, Of Brigham
Park, Fitchburg, Mass, writes

youngest daughter is now taking It for To-
male weakness, and is surely gaining in health
and strength
~ freely advocate 1t as q most reliable spe-
cific in all diseases to which women are sub

Tor flatulence), 1eucorrh9a, falling, in
hammation or liberation of the uterus,
ovarian troubles, that bearing-down
feeling, dizziness, faintness, indiges-

should take immediate action to ward
off the serious consequences, and be
restored to perfect health and strength
by taking Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegeta-
BILE Compound, and then write to Mrs.
Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass, for further
free advice. No living person has had
the benefit of a wider experience in
treating female ills. She has guided
thousands to health. Every suffering
woman should ask for and follow her
advice if she wants to be strong and
