his interest to G. Ross Thompson, Of

change in proprietors by a singular
coincidence there was no change in
the firm name. Within the past few
days Mr.. Sanderhoff has purchased

SUFFERING.

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. Menstrua-
ton is severe strain on a woman IS
vitality. II it is painful or irregular
something is wrong which should be
set right or it will lead to serious de-
rangement of the whole female organ
ism.
More than fifty thousand women
have testified in grateful letters to Mrs.
Pinkham that Lydia +. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound overcomes pain
full and irregular menstruation.
1t provides 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. / suffered misery for years with
painful periods, headaches, and bearing-down
pains I 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. 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 |
advise all women who suffer TO take Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound"
Mrs. Tillie Hart, of Larimore, N. D.,
writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
az might have have been spared many
months of suffering and pain had I only

Vegetable Compound sooner; for have tried
so many remedies without help
" dreaded the approach of my menstrual
period every month, as 1t meant so much pain
and suffering for me, but after Ihad used the
Compound two months became regular and
natural and am now perfectly we'll and free
from pain atmy monthly periods. | am very
grateful for what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound has done for me-"
Such testimony should be accepted
by all women as convincing evidence
that Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound stands without a peer as
remedy for all the distressing ills of
women.
The success of Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound rests upon the
well-earned gratitude of American
women.
When women are troubled with irreg-
ular, suppressed or painful menstrual
ton, leucorrhea, displacement or ul-
ceration of the womb, that bearing
down feeling, inflammation of the
ovaries, backache, bloating, Tor flatu-
lency), general debility, indigestion and
nervous prostration, or are beset with
such symptoms as dizziness, faintpess,
lassitude, excitability, irritability, ner-
vousness, sleeplessness, melancholy,
they should remember there is one tried
and true remedy, Lydia e, Pinkhams
Vegetable Compound at once removes
such troubles. Refuse to buy any other
medicine, for you need the best.
Don't hesitate to write to Mrs.
Pinkham if there is anything
about your sickness you do not
understand. She will treat you
with kindness and her advice is
free. No woman ever regretted
writing her and she has helped
thousands. Address Lynn, Mass.

LAND FRAUDS PRoBED.
BoOth-Kelly Company Charged With
Conspiracy.

So far as the land frauds are con-
cerned, the Investigations of the fed
eral grand jury now i'm session will
probably cover no important cases
save that of the Booth Kelly Lumber
company, says the Oregon Daily Jour
nal. An army of witnesses has been
subpoenaed to testify concerning the
methods by which this corporation
acquired its immense holdings of
public lands, and the grand iury's
mquisition is necessarily proceeding
slowly.
the lobby outside of the grand
jury room is crowded daily with wit
nesses and secret service men. most
of the former from Roseburg. Cot
tage Grove and other towns i'm South
ern oregon. Many of them are men
who took up claims which were sub
sequently transferred to the Booth
Kelly company.
One transaction which is likely to
receive rigid scrutiny from the grand
jury is the conveyance to the COM
pany, about three years ago. of ex-
tensive holdings owned by j. w. Cook
of this city, and j. l. Jones of Cottage
Grove. The deal involved about TO-
600 acres of railroad lands, acquired
by Cook and Jones from the South
ern Pacific, and 1000 or 5000 acres
of school and timber lands. Both
Cook and Jones have been subpoe-
naed to appear before the grand jury
Amounts to Conspiracy Charge.
The governments case against the
Booth-Kelly Lumber company is vir-
tually charge of conspiracy 1t is
alleged that the company acquired
extensive tracts of land by causing
its employees to make entries in their
own names, the tracts being subse-
quently conveyed to the corporation.
1t is also charged that locators
were employed to make entries upon
public lands, the locators being mere
ly the emissaries of the company. It
has been rumored that many of the
holdings which eventually passed into
the ownership of the company were
originally made in the names of fic-
titious persons, as in the case of the
lands secured by the Puter- Mckinley
ring i'm township HI" and in the
Blue mountain reserve, but upon this
point it is impossible to obtain defin-
lite Information.
