A nervous, irritable mother, often on
the verge Of Mysteries, is unfit to ARE
for children; it ruins a child's DISPOSE
ton and reacts upon herself. The
trouble between children and their
mothers too often is due to the fact
that the mother has some female weak
ness, and she is entirely unfit to bear
the strain uponher nerves that govern
ing children involves; it is impossible
for her to do anything calmly.
The ills Of women act1ike a frebrand
upon the nerves, consequently nine
tenths of the nervous p~rostration. ner-
vous dependency. "the blues" sleep
lessncss, and V irritability Of
women arise from some arrangement
Of the female organism.
Do you experience fits of depression
with restlessness, alternating with
extreme irritability? Are your spirits
easily affected, so that one minute you
laugh, and the next minute you feel
like crying?
Do you feel something like a ball ris-
ing in your throat and threatening to
choke you; all the senses perverted,
morbidly sensitive TO light and sound;
pain in the ovaries, and especially
between the shoulders bearing down
pains; dyspepsia, and almost
continually o and snappy?
If so, your nerves are in a shattered
condition, and you are threatened with
nervous prostration.
Proof is monumental that nothing in
the world is better for nervous prostra-
ton than Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound; thousands and thou
sands of women testify to this fact.

Miscellaneous Legislation Threatened.

LEGISLATION Is threatenad In many
States during this coming winter for
the suppression Of the so-called ''pat-
ent' medicines. The success Of such
legislation would mean the abolition Of
the home medicine chest and would
force persons, no matter how remote
their homes from a physician, to call
III a doctor for every minor allment.
The legislation as proposed would
mean frequent long delays awaiting
the arrival of q physician, when a SIM
pie remedy administered by a member
of the household would accomplish the
result desired, or at least give tempo
rarY relief.

Sultan of Turkey Gets an Automobile

FTOm the NeW 1OTK WOrIu.
The last royal onv to the auto
mobile Is the sultan Of Turkey, who has
hitherto expressed the greatest horror
of the devil wagons" Of any n all
kinds. When the khedive of Egypt was
here a few weeks ago he bought two
superb high horse power vehicles, the
manufacturer having promised 60 give
him one Of them free If he induced the
sultan to buy the other. The khedive
was unable to induce the sultan to buy,
but he wired the manufacturers that
as a present. The manufacturer wireo
his consent, considering the inc1uen,
would furnish first rate advertising. So
both rulers are now provided, but the
sultan refused t) get into the car until
every piece of machinery had beer
taken apart and explained to him, with
the view of proving its solidity.
