WHY DOCTORS
AND MRS. PlNKHAM SUCCEEDS
Plain Reasons Are Here Given to Explain
Why Lydia z. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound Cures When Doctors Are PoWerless

Awomani. sick; some disease peculiar
to her sex is fast developing in her sys-
TEN. She goes to her family physician
and tells him story, but not the whole
story.
She holds something back, loses her
head, becomes agitated, forgets what
she wants to say, and finally conceals
what she ought to have told, and thus
completely mystifes the doctor.
Is it any wonder, therefore, that the
doctors fail to cure the disease? Still
we cannot blame the woman, for it is
very embarrassing to detail some OF the
symptoms of her suffering, even to her
family physician.
1t was for this reason that years ago
Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass, de-
termined to step in and help her sex.
Having had considerable experience in
treating female ills with her Vegetable
Compound, she encouraged the women
of America to write to her for advice in
regard to their complaints, and being
woman, it was easy for her ailing Sis
tiers to pour into her ears every detail
of their suffering.
In this way she was able to do for
them what the physicians were unable
to do, simply because she had the
proper information to work upon, and
from the little group of women who
sought her advice years ago great
army of her fellow-beings are to-day
constantly applying for advice and re-
lief, and the fact that many thou
sands of them have been cured by
following the advice of Mrs. Pinkham
during the last year is indicative of the
grand results which are produced by
her unequaled experience and training.
No physician in the world has had
such 4 training, or has such an amount
of information at hand to assist in the
treatment of all kinds of female ills,
from the simplest local irritation to
the most complicated womb diseases,
This, therefore, is the reason why
Mrs. Pinkham, i'll her laboratory at
Lynn, Mass, is able to do more for the
ailing women of America than the
family physician. Any woman. there
fore, is responsible for her own suffer
ing who will not take the trouble to
write to Mrs Pinkham for advice.
The testimonials which We are con-
stantly publishing from grateful wo-
men establish beyond a doubt the
power of Lydia +. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound to conquer female diseases.

What is More Beautiful than a Mothers Love
Who ran to help me when fell
And would some pretty story tell.
Or kiss the place to make il well.
NV mother"

A mothers worries are many. She
sometimes forgets her own bodily dis
comforts because of her overpowering
love for the child. She becomes broken
down, sleepless, nervous, irritable and
feels tired from morning until night.
Many mothers of experience can tell you
that at such a time they have been re-
lieved, benefited and strengthened and
put into proper health by taking a pre-
scription which their mothers had told
them was the best wOman'S tonic and
nervine to be taken at such times. DIR.
Pierce's Favorte Prescription has en-
joyed an enviable reputation for over a
third of a century. In all that time it
has sold more largely in the United
States than any other tonic for woman
needs, and to-day its sales are greater
than ever. DIR. Pierce made up this
prescription from native medicinal roots
without the use of particle OF alcohol
and for the single purpose of curing
those diseases peculiar to women and
when there is a lack of womanly
strength to bear the burdens of maternal
duty. How few women come to this
critical time with adequate strength.
The reason why so many women sink
cause they are unprepared. Is pre-
paration then required for mother
hood? asks the young woman. And
every experienced mother answers
-"Ies." 81 unhesitatingly advise ex-
pectant mothers to use Doctor pierce's
Favorite Prescription" writes Mrs. j.
w. q. Stephens, of Mia, Va. The rea
son for this advice is that DR.. Pierce's
Favorte Prescription is the best pre-
parative for the maternal function. No
matter how healthy and strong woman
may be, she cannot use vFavorite Pre-
scriptlon" as preparative for ma
ternity without gain of health and
comfort. But it is the women who are
not strong who best appreciate the great
benefits received from the use of "Fa-
vorte Prescription" For one thing its
use makes the baby's advent practically
painless. 1t has III many cases reduced
days of suffering to brief few hours.
1t has changed the period Of anxiety
and struggle into time Of ease and
comfort.
A DUTY WOMEN OWE THEMSELVES.
GOOD actions speak louder than
Words" so, too does the testimony OF
vi WOlHtlI
third OF century speak louder than
mere claims not backed by any such
record of cures.

scription.' l consider it without an
equal for ills of women"
All the ingredients entering into
DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription are
printed in plain English on each bottle
wrapper. DIR. Pierce thereby shows that
he is not afraid to tell his patients just
what this medicine is made of This
is not true OF any other medicine espe-
clally designed for the cure of woman S
peculiar ailments. This Prescription !"
is also the only woman's medicine sold
through druggists that does not CON
tain large percentage of alcohol; it
contains not a drop.
As an indication of the high esteem
in which the medical profession are
coming to regard the several ingredi-
ents OF which DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription, for weak and ailing women
is composed, We have room here to in
sert only the following:

Editor of the Department of Therapeu-
tics in THE ELECTRIC REVIEW saws OF
Unicorn root (Heionias DiOica) one Of
the chief ingredients OF DIR. Pierce's Fa
yorite Prescription: "a remedy which
invariably acts as a uterine invigoratOr
and always favors condition which
makes for normal activity of the entire
reproductive system, cannot fail to be
OF great usefulness and of the utmost
Importance to the general practitioner
OF medicine"
YIN HelOnlas we have a medicament
which more fully answers the above
purposes than any other drug uith
tChtch am acquainted. In the treat
ment OF diseases peculiar to women it
Is seldom that case is seen which does
not present some indication for this
remedial agent"
"The following are among the lead
ing indications for Helonias: Pain or
aching i'll the back, with leucorrhpa:
atonlc weak conditions of the repro
ductive organs of women, mental de-
preston and irritability, associated
with chronic diseases Of the reproduc-

Big Decline in Sheep
Raising in Maine.
Compared With 1904, Shortage
Will Be Over 10000.
Mr.. Carleion's Bird Letter to Milliners Sets
Latter to Thinking.
STATE HOUSE CALENDAR.
Next Meeting of Governor and COUNCIL
Thursday. Nov. 16 at 10 A. M.

Onn If thc results Of the work of
the board Of State assessors Tor the
past season is the discovery tnat the
sheep industry in the State Is on the
decline, and while the totals for the en-
tire. State have not yet been received,
enough has been ascertained to show
tina: the number of sheep in the State
Is far below what it should be. In
speaking Of the matter, Saturday, Sec
rotary James Plummer of the board,
made some interesting statements. Inc
total number of sheen in the State IN
1904, according TO the report OF the as
SCISSORS, was 1888, which was IL small
number considering the standard oil the
State as Il farming country, and for the
facilities which it possesses for sheep
raising, but the present year will ind
4 great falling Off, and il is fully eX-
pected that when the totals are reached
they will show a Shrinkdge OF over
20 900. Some of the causes given for the
decline in the industry are the low
prices Of wool which have prevailed in
tn, past, and the lack of interest on the
part Of the farmers. Another cause is
said to have been the havoc resulting
from the number Of sheep which We're
Killed by dogs. AS might be expected,
the larger percentage Of sheep raised
in Maine are found i'll AroostOok cOun-
ty, where although the quality OF the
wool is of the coarser grade. the NUT
ton is of the best. AroOstOok county is
famous for its mutton. which is said to
be- the best that is found in the State.
Wool, however, this season, is high.
some of it selling as high as 81 cents
Ecr pound, which is, Mr.. Plummer
states, reckoning it on the gold basis,
as high as it was in war times. Sheep
raising should be one of the leading in
dustries OF the State and it is hoped
that when another year rolls around,
the grand total will assume something
nearer the proportions that it should.
The interest in dairying has brought il,
this year, to what is considered to be
its high water mark, ami those vino
are familiar with the matter see no
reason why the sheep industry should
not follow.
