An eminent physician says that
"Women are not truthful; they will lie
to their physician" This statement
should be qualified; women do tell the
truth, but not the whole truth, to a
male physician, but this is only in re-
gard to those painful and troublesome
disorders peculiar to their sex.
There can be no more terrible ordeal
to delicate, sensitive, refined woman
than to be obliged to answer certain
questions when those questions are
asked, even by her family physician.
This is especially the case with un-
married women.
Is it any wonder, then, that women
continue to suffer and that doctors
fail to cure female diseases when they
cannot get the proper information to
work on?
This is the reason why thousands and
thousands of women are now CORE
spending with Mrs. Pinkham. To her
they can and do give every symptom,
SO that she really knows more about
the true condition of her patients,
through her correspondence with them
than the physician who personally
questions them.
Ifyou suffer from any form Of trouble
peculiar to women, write at once to
Mrs. Pinkham. Lynn, Mass, and she
will advise you free of charge.
The fact that this great boon, which
is extended freely to women by Mrs.
Pinkham, is appreciated, the thou
sands OF letters received by her prove.
Many such grateful letters as the fol-
lowing are constantly pouring in.

What the Dentist Says.

Toledo, Ohio, March 27th.-(Special)
Harry T. Lewis, the well known
dentist of COZ Sumit street, this city,
is telling of his remarkable cure Of
Kidney Disease by using Dodd's Kid
ney Pills.
Il was fat on my back and must
say had almost given up all hope Of
ever getting any help" says DR.. Lewis.
"My kidneys had troubled me for
years. The pains In my back were Sc
we're and 1 had to get up several times
at night. 1 tried different medicines
but kept on getting worse till was
laid up.
"Then a friend advised me to try
Dodd's Kidney Pills and in about two
weeks l started to improve. Now 1
am glad to admit am cured and l
cannot praise Dodd's Kidney Pills too
highly"
If you take Dodd's Kidney Pills
when your kidneys first show signs Of
being out Of order you will never have
Bright's Disease, Diabetes, Dropsy,
Gravel or Rheumatism.

What number does she wear? 1t
should be surprise to few men, at
least to know that she no longer wears
shoes Of numbered sizes. The old l, 2,

has seen its day; now sizes are no
longer designated by numbers, at least
not in the places where she buys
shoes that cost as If they were made
of gold and precious stone or two.
There are marks and numbers that tell
the story of length and breadth to the

the clerk could not hide the true facts
about the proper size Of shoes for her
to wear.
So a few years ago the manufac-
turers and the merchants resorted to
cipher in designating shoes, and a
number" nowadays reads like foot
ball signal. Some women have even
penetrated the cipher and, consequent
ly, some shops request that nothing be
said about numbers-the salesman
will measure the foot and bring a shoe
to correspond. That is, he'll bring the
first too large, in order to let the fair
buyer have the satisfaction of asking
for something smaller.
Meanwhile the mems shoes still
have sizes marked in plain numbers

Shakspere and Dogs.

We have been convinced by letters
sent to us that there are in Shaks-
peare's plays plenty Of references to
dogs and their ways, but We believe
that the criticism is well founded
which notes that in most cases where
dogs are named, except in general
way, they are not spoken Of with any
particular affection. But may that not
be because upon the stage in the Eliza
bethan days it would not have been
desirable to direct the attention Of the
audience strongly to anything that
would distract them from the motives
that inspired the actors? To treat
dogs sympathetically would bring
them, in sense, into competition with
the human actors.--St. Nicholas.

A 4so-AcRE FARM YIELDS 25 PER
CENT PROFIT IN A YEAR

What a Mercer County Ohio Farmer
Received from One Years Crop.
Extracts from an interesting letter
from P. H. Rynhard, of Starbuck,
Manitoba, Canada, gives an excellent
idea Of the prosperity of those who
have gone from the United States to
Canada. He says:
Il bought, August, 1903, 4S0 acres
Of land, paying $4,000 for it. We
threshed 2,973 bushals Of wheat and
between 1920 and 1850 bushels of oats
and barley from 200 acres. But part
of the wheat went down before filling
and was not harvested except for hay.
The crop was worth at tLreshing time
$1,000. Besides 120 acres laying idle
except timothy meadow which is not
included in this estimate. Counting
the value Of the product and the in
crease of value of land will pay me
more than % per cent On the invest
ment Two brothers in the same neigh
borhoOd bought 160 acres each six
years ago. They have not done sim
gle thing to this land except to fence
it and break and cultivate about one
half of it. Harvested last. year %
bushels wheat per acre. This year 27
bushels per acre. They can get any
day $25 per acre. These are only a
few of many hundreds of such chances.
1t looks like boasting, but truth is
justifiable and the world ought to
know it, especially the hOme-seeker.

have made fortunes In from 10 TO 20
years, retired with from $4,000 to

Effects of Prosperity.

In the six years of the country's
greatest prosperity. from 1897 to 1908,
average prices Of breadstuffs advanced
65 per cent, meats 23.1 per cent, dairy
and garden products SOL per cent and
clothing 24.1. All these were products
of the farmer and stockman who
profited more than any other class OF
the community by these advances.
The miner benefited 421 per cent by
that advance in the average price of
metals. The only decrease in the aver
age prices of commodities in that pc
ricd was in railway freights, which
decreased from .70S per ton-mile in
1897 to 1853 in 1903, loss of "A per

Commerce Commission shows that the
average increase in the pay of railroad
employees in that period was trifie
above S.5 per cent.
