Mrs. III. WriQhf

Mrs. Pinkham claims that there is a
kind OF dyspepsia that is caused by q
arrangement of the female organism,
and which, while it causes a disturb
ance similar to ordinary indigestion,
cannot be relieved without a medicine
which not only acts as a stomach tonic,
but has peculiar uterine-tonic effects
also.
As proof of this theory we call at.
tention to the case of Mrs. Maggie
Wright, Brooklyn, N. Y. who was
completely cured by Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound after every
thing else had failed. She writes:
"For two years I suffered with dyspepsia
which so degenerated my entire system that
was unable to attend to my daily duties. I
felt weak and nervous, and nothing that ate
tasted good andi it caused a disturbance in my
stomach. l tried different dyspepsia cures.
but nothing seemed to help me. 1 was adj
vised to give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound a trial, and was happily surprised
to find that it acted like a fine tonic, and in q
fewdays began to enjoy and properly digest
my food. Ny recovery was rapid, and in
five weeks I was a well woman. I have rec
commended it to many suffering women"
No other medicine in the world has
received such widespread and unquelt-
fed endorsement, or has such a recordo OF
cures of female troubles, as has Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

How to Make the nj ysterious Egg Bag

How to Make the M ysterious Egg Bag.
Make two bags. about twelve inches
long by six wide, of some dark mate
rial, and sew the two together, so that
one may be inside the other, and 1t Will
aDpear the same if turned inside out.
Next make a number of little pockets,
with a cover to each, which may pc
fastened down by a button and loop.
Place these about two inches apart,
between the two bags, sewing one side
of the pocket to II bag and the other
side to the other. Now make Sits
through both bags about an inch in
length just above the pockets, so that
the opening is large enough for a hand
TO go through. Insert your thumb and
finger through the Sits and open the
pockets.
To perform the trick small articles
should be put in the pockets, q in
each, and the pockets covered over.
The bag may now be turned inside out
any number of times at pleasure, and
it will appear to be empty; indeed, it
will thus appear if examined closely
by any one Of the spectators. You can
now cause to appear and disappear
any number of articles, much to every
ones amusement, as we'll az amaze
ment. The celebrated egg-bag trick Of
the magicians who perform in public
is done with this kind of a bag.
