How often do we hear women say: sit
seems as though my back would break, "
or Don't speak to me, l am all out of
sorts?" These significant remarks prove
that the system requires attention.
Backache and the blues" are direct
symptoms of an inward trouble which
will sooner or later declare itself. 1t
may be caused by diseased kidneys or
some uterine arrangement. Nature
requires assistance and at once, and
Lydia E. Pinkhams Vegetable Com
pound instantly asserts its curative
powers in all those peculiar ailments of
women. It has been the standby of
intelligent American women for twenty
years, and the ablest specialists agree
that it is the most universally success
full remedy for woman's ills known to
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. JIG. Holmes, of Larimore, North
Dakota, writes:
Dear Mrs Pinkham:--
81 have suffered everything with backache
and womb trouble-I let the trouble run on
until my system was in such condition that
I was unable to be about, and then it was
commenced to use Lydia E. Pinkham's vege-
table Compound. If had only known how
much suffering would have saved, should
have taken it months sooner-for a few
weeks treatment made me well and strong
Ny backaches and headachesar are all gone and
l suffer no pain at my menstrual periods,
whereas before I took Lydia E. Pinkhams
Vegetable Compound suffered intense pain. !"

An enterprisinp concern in southern

An enterprising concern in southern
Ohio is flooding Maine with what it
calls a prepared cereal product rich,
old, mellow, ripe. 1t doesn't come
from distillery, but from 'cannery'.
Its inducements to agents are alluring-
a Fourth of July trip free, a SIC
premium in gold, four-quart sample
case free, $50 in commissions, and so on
and SO forth-any OF all, if you sell
enough of the stuff at SO much per gal
lon. Maine is, to be sure. prohibition
State, but if any of her citizens want
liquor, they are not afraid to call it by
its right name. They may patronize a
cannery for sardines or CLAIMS or con-
densed milk, but they prefer to have
their liquor come from a distillery.-

Heels.
PORTLAND, Me-, May 16. With al
most the entire village of South Wind
ham at their heels two itinerant fakirs
who had tleeced the farmers out of
about $50 of their hard earned money
finally escaped to Portland electric by
lodging through woods. They were
afterward arrested but released, and
today the little village is the laughing
stock of the county.
The fakirS, one of whom was a color
ed banjo player, and the other white
man and gasolene wagon orator, ar
rived in Windham little before dusk
They soon attracted a crowd iii the viii
lage square. In short time they were
doing thriving business selling cheap
soap at 10 cents cake. Wonderful to
relate they offered to return 10 cents to
every purchaser after they had sold out
their stock
Such princely generosity had never
been heard of in South Windham.
About half the people bit. AS soon as
the soap was sold the vendors kept
their word and returned the purchase
price to each customer.
"Gee, them fellers must be made of
money drawled one chin whiskered
native.
Next the vendors brought forth
about four dozen salt cellars which they
offered for 81 each, money TO be return
ed as before. There was a stampede
for the salt cellars which were worth
about cents each. AS soon as they
were sold the fakirs suddenly made Il
dash through the crowd. They gained
a Portland electric. A telephone mes
sage caused their arrest at Westbrook,
but when vigilance committee of
twenty boiling citizens arrived in that
town by the next car they were much
chagrined when the marshal said he
couldn't hold the strangers.

Standpoint Speaks.

Communicated.
From the shores of old PenObscOt Bay,
Where things seem slightly out of Joint
There falls upon my ears today,
The wee small voice of Standpoint.
The tone is one of honest pride
With an undertone of pain,
Pray let your ears be opened wide,
Oh. Mother State of Maine.
They think to crush me under foot,
They judge ME undersize,
And they take from little Standpoint,
The blessings that she priced.
That even if the stars should fall,
Or the sky should change its hue,
They have the Maine State laws at call,
The railroad must 60 through.
We are glad to see it coming,
And regard the thing as nice,
But wherefore take our substance.
AND not pay us our price?
Why ruin our industry,
And cut our woods away,
Then tell us we must settle
For what the railroad wish to pay!
The road you call blessing;
Perhaps, but we say shuckS
We may be small, but never tried
10 crowd the little ducks.
Our sons toiled hard to earn the land,
You take the same away.
And give the railroad men the chance,
10 Say what they will pay.
You say, call on the commissioners
You wish not to oppress,
Behold, those worthy gentlemen!
Say we must take still less.
In vain is the plea of the widow,
In vain is the speech of the poor,
The idol capital rules the land,
We have only to endure
Must we ask in vain for justice,
We trust you hear us plain,
Deal justly with your little town,
Oh, mother State of Maine.
