make you irritable; you can't sleep, you are unable to quietly and calmly perform your daily tasks or care for your children.
 The relation of the nerves and gen. erative organs in women is so close that nine-tenths of the nervous pros- tration, nervous debility, the blues, sleeplessness and nervous irritability arise from some derangement of the organism which makes her 8 woman. Fits of depression or restlessness and irritability. Spirits easily affected. so that one minute she laughs, the next minute weeps. Pain in the ovaries and between the shoulders. Loss of voice; nervous dyspepsia. A tendency to cry at the least provocation. All this points to nervous prostration.
 Nothing will relieve this distressing condition and prevent months of pros tration and suffering so surely as Lydia B. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
 Mrs. M. E. Shotwell, of 1O3 Flatbush Avenue, Brooklyn, N. Y., writes:
 II cannot express the wonderful relief have experienced by taking Lydia B. Pink hams Vegetable Compound suffered for a long time with nervous presentation, back. ache, headache, loss of appetite. I could every night.
 '" had three doctors and got no better, and life was burden. I was advised to try Lydia B. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and it has worked wonders for me.
 am a well woman, my nervousness is all gone and my friends say look ten years younger"
 Wal not the volumes of letters from wonfen made strong by Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound convince all women of it's virtues? Surely you cannot wish to remain sick and weak and discouraged, exhausted each day, when you can be as easily cured as other women.

the statement In a morning paper varies so much
from the truth that II is apparent that IL must
have been the result of misnformation. II Is not
true that two members of the firm will retire on
March 81 The fact rs that the partnership
pires on that day by limitation II Is not true
that the partnership articles regarding the good

to be regarded as asset TO be distributed among
the partners Differences have arisen among the
partners. and the present firm will not be con-
tinued after March 81. MIR. FairchId Is going out
