OF all the diseases known, with
which women are afflicted, kidney dis
ease is the most fatal. In fact, unless
early and correct treatment is applied,
the weary patient seldom survives.
Being fully aware of this, Mrs. Pink
ham. early in her career, gave exhaust
i've study to the subject, and in pro-
ducing her great remedy for woman's
ills Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound-wasc careful to see that it
contained the correct combination of
herbs which was sure to control that
fatal disease, woman $ kidney troubles.
The Vegetable Compound acts in har-
mony with the laws that govern the
entire female system, and while there
are many SO called remedies for kidney
troubles, Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound is the only one espe-
cially prepared for women, and thou
sands have been cured of serious kidney
arrangements by it. arrangements of
the feminine organs quickly affect the
kidneys, and when woman has such
symptoms as pain or weight in the
loins, bacl1ache, bearing down pains

Pe-ru-na Contains no Narcotics.
One reason why Peruna has found per-
manent use in so many homes is that it
contains no narcotic of any kind. Pc
runa is perfectly harmless. 1t can be
used any length of time without acquir-
ing a drug habit. Peruna does not pro-
duce temporary results. 1t is permanent
in it's effects.
1t has no bad effect upon the system,
and gradually eliminates catarrh by re-
moving the cause of catarrh. There are
a multitude of homes where Peruna has
been used off and on for twenty years.
Such thing could not be possible if
Peruna contained any drugs Of a mar

4 Tribute to Weather Conditions In
Western Canada.
During the early portion of Febru-

ern States suffered severely with the
intense cold and winter storms. Trains
were delayed, cattle suffered, and there
was much general hardship. While
this was the case, throughout Western
canada, now attracting so much atten-
ton, the weather was perfect.
One correspondent writes: 1--WE are
enjoying most beautiful weather, the
gentlemen are going to church without
top coats, while the ladies require no
heavier outer clothing than that afford
ed by light jackets. In contrast with
this it is interesting to read in a ST..
