While no woman is entirely free from
periodical suffering, it does not seem to
be the plan of nature that women
should suffer so severely. Menstrual
ton is a severe strain on woman's
vitality. If it is painful or irregular
something is wrong which should be
set right or it will lead to a serious de-
rangement of the whole female organ
ism.
More than fifty thousand women
have testified in grateful letters to Mrs.
Pinkham that Lydia e. Pinl1ham' g
Vegetable Compound overcomes pain
full and irregular menstruation.
1t provides q safe and sure way of es-
cape from distressing and dangerous
weaknesses and diseases.
The two following letters tell so con-
vincingly what Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound will do for
women, they cannot fail to bring hope
to thousands of sufferers.
Miss Nellie Holmes of $40 N. Davi-
sion Street, Buffalo, n. Y, writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham.-
"Your medicine is indeed an ideal medicine
for women. l suffered misery for years with
painful periods, headaches and bearing-down
pains. consulted two different physicians
but failed to get any relief. A friend from
the East advised me to try Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound. l did so, and
no longer suffer as did before. My periods
are natural; every ache and pain is gone and
my general health is much improved.

E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound"

A Heavy Fine.

Under the. Elkins law, any railroad
company which pays rebates in any
form, or any shipper who accepts them,
is liable to fine of from $1,000 to
$4,000, upon conviction. 1t also pro-
hibits the carrying of freight at less
than the published tariffs. The Inter-
state Commerce Commission lis en-
powered to detect and prosecute vio-
lators Of this statute. President Knapp,
Of the Commission, states that since
this law was passed, rebate paying has
been as rare as forgery.

inform me. The thought of the poor.
hard-worked mother with this belig-
gerent daughter on her hands, was pit
eous. But | couldn't think of any way
to change the situation just then, and
meekly handed Tillie the bill THE
Womens club heard your mother was
SICK" said, land sent her this little
Easter present. 1t is for her to buy
anything she needs, and we hope she
will soon be better"
Tillie took the money stolidly, with
out one word.
The lace on my Easter dress was All
right The yellow looks better than
white would. But Easter was fright
fully cold and l had to wear all my
winter things. There were just four
new hats in our church, and they
looked most unsuitable. The service
was fine, and the flowers! We've new
err had them so beautiful.
But on the way home, what do you
think happened? Just as crossed
Broad street met short, dumpy girl,
who smiled at me as if | were her best
friend did not recognize her at first
glance, but at second glance that awful
pompadour identified itself, though the
expression Of the face under it was
very different from that l was familiar
with. 1t was Tillie-Tillie, in light
tan spring coat, huge hat of lavendar
straw trimmed with pink roses, and
white kid gloves; all these shiningly,
assertively new.
Tillie bewildered me, and in few
moments, when my mind grasped pat
ent facts, Tillie appalled, me- | could
not help putting two and two together.
Both she and her mother are out of
work and the Schultz treasury must
naturally be low. Title is intrusted
with money for her mother. Title
appears in brand-new Easter outfit
whose cost would be just about the sum
of which Tillie had been made custo-
dian. Could she, oh, could she, have
appropriated the money and not given
it to her poor mother at all?
Easter week was bad week for me-
did tell Mrs. Colloton, because had
to tell some one or burst, and we de-
cided we would keep the secret from
every other member of the club. We
have kept it, too, though now it isn't
quite the kind of secret we thought il
was.
Mrs. Schultz got better after week
or two and came back to work at Mrs
Colloton's. She spoke of the money
right away and she was so grateful
She said Tillie had been so blue and
cross because she didn't have money
and couldn't have new Easter things
like the other girls. She was bound
co go to the city to work and there was
man trying to induce her to go, 6
man who Mrs. Schultz said emphati
cally was no good. Mrs. Schultz knew
the city was no place for a green cir
like Tillie, but she could no nothina
with her until the club donation came
Then she offered the money and TITLE
listened to reason.
She's back at Mrs. Stolls now, ant
a respectable young German is com
ing to see her. So Easter and thu
Women's club gave Tillie another
chance, and l don't believe the clul
ever did anything better.
But I've often wondered what thu
members would have thought if the!
had seen the first fruits of their Eagtel
Offering Easter morning!

A Wonderful Discovery.

Broadland, S. Oak, March 2s.-Quite a
sensation has been created here by the
publication of the story of G. w. Gray,
who after special treatment for three
months was PROSTATE and helpless and
given up to die with Bright's Disease.
Bright's Disease has always been consid-
cred incurable but evidently from the
story told by Mr.. Gray, there is remedy
which will cure it even in the most ad-
vanced stages. This is what he says:
II was helpless as q little babe. My
wife and l searched everything and read
everything we could find about Brigl.t's
Disease, hoping that l would be able to
find remedy. After many failures my
wife insisted that l should try Dodd's
Kidney Pills. / praise God for the day
when l decided to do so, for this remedy
met every phase of my case and in a
short time | was able to get out of bed,
and after a few weeks treatment / was
strong, well man. Dodd's Kidney Pills
saved my life
A remedy that will cure Bright's Dis
ease will cure any lesser Kidney Disease.
Dodd's Kidney Pills are certainly the
most wonderful discovery which modern
medical research has given to the world.

Hirh.nriced officials.

The Metropolitan Life Insurance Com
pany figured in the greater part OF the
ay'sproceedings before the insurance IN
yestigating committee 10 Albany, n. Y,
Yesterday. John r. Hegeman, president
of the company, was the first witness,
and the expenses of the company were
further gone into. II WAS brought out
that Mr.. Hegeman's salary Is the same as
that of John A. Mccall, president o. the
New York Life-Sl00,0 600. Previous to
1905 however, Mr.. IIeg'man received
800 900. The salary Of Vice President
Haley Fiske is $75, 900; George II. Gas
ton. the second vice president, receives
$37, 500, and Frank o. Ayres, third vice
president, receives SIC. $50.
It was shown that in 1904 81, $40, ,O44
was paid for salaries, of which 10 officers
received 1903, l05 No executive officer,
Mr.. Hegeman said. now receives any
other compensation than his salary. In
detailing the growth of the company's
business. Mr.. Hegeman said that 80
wears ago less than $3.50 600 would have
bought cut the company, while today
$3.50 900, 600 would not Go it. He re-
membered the time when the company
had to 90 out and borrow the money to
to pay a death claim, while now the COM
pany has death claim every minute OF
the "a hours, and is able to pay them.
The system of agencies and the man.
ner of obtaining business in the field was
taken up. 1t was brought out that the
average salary of an agent in the field is
sl162 A week. An assistant superln-
tendent's salary averages SlS week,
which. with commissions, may run to
S25 weekly. Tire average salary Of
superintendents is from S25 to 500 a
week. These officers are in the direct
charge of the agents IN the field.
Mr.. Hegeman said that when the IL
nance committee consulted him about
increasing salaries in 1904, 81 said that
| had received $50, 900 for two years and
was satisfied and gratihed and did not
need anv increase. They agreed, how
ever, in consideration of my 80 years,
service, to increase it to 100000. l
have not drawn il, however, and do not
intend to do so. OF all the words that
I abhor the perpendicular pronoun has
the primacy, but would like TO say
that have averaged salary of 500, 600
only and have continued with the ccm-
pany to my pecuuiary disadvantage.

Nerrn Rescned From Mob.

Racing an auto thirty miles an hour,
Sheriff Nelms, of Fulton, Ga, dashed
into a mob of 500 citizens, who were
about to lynch Jim Walker, a negro,
for criminal assault on Mrs. Moore,
prominent Atlanta woman, and succeed
ed in persusding the w0uld-be lynchers
TO let the law take its course. The rope
was already around the negro's neck,
and be was being dragged TO telephone
pole when the sheriff arrived. Sheriff
Nelms would have probably failed IN
his efforts to rescue the negro if ne had
not been aided by Moore, the husband
of the outraged woman. In return ior
Moore's assistance, Sheriff Nelms prom
ised that the husband should spring the
trap when the negro is legally banged.
In pleading with the mob to spare the
negro for the law, Mr.. Moore announced
the offer of the sheriff and declared be
proposed to accept it. With his hnger
in the face of Walker and with the
mob surrounding him, Mr.. Moore ex-
claimed, looking the prisoner squarely
in the eyes "You black wretch, l
have been given the privilege and the
pleasure of springiDg the trigger that will
send you to death, and | propose to do i''
| will break your neck, you guilty
scoundrel." Without so much as finch
ing, the negro replied; 81 did not 90
that crime" The outrage was commit
ted three weeks ago while Mrs. Moore
was in a flower garden at her home on
Poach Tree street, the most fashionable
street in Atlanta. The negro has been
chased persistenhy ever since, but was
only captured yesterday morning. he
was taken to Moore's home for identih-
cation, Mrs. Moore screamed. "he Is
the wretch" and tainted. In five MIN
utes a crowd gathered and took the ne
gro from the two officers. Mrs. Moore
two sons were in the crowd, making des'
perate efforts to shoot the negro. A
rope was put around the negro's neck
and he was being dragged to execution
kicked aud dubbed at every step by The
crowd. Some one telephoned Sherit
Nelms, and he sprang into an auto ant
ran full speed to the scene, The mol
parted as the auto raced madly through
and, as stated above, finally gave al
the prisoner.
