To be such successful wife, to re- tain the love and admiration of her husband, to inspire him to make the most of himself, should be a woman's constant study.
 If a woman finds that her energies are Tagging, that she gets easily tired, dark shadows appear under her eyes, she has backache, headaches, bearing down pains, nervousness, whites, irreg- ularities or the blues, she should start at once to build up her system by a tonic with specific powers, such as Lydia D. Pinkhapa's Vegetable Com pound.
 Following we publish by request a letter from young wife:
 Dear Mrs. P:nkham:
 Ever since my child was born have suf- fered, as Ihope few women ever have, with ifl- tiammation, female weakness, bearing down pains, backache and wretched headaches. It affected my stomach so I could not enjoy my meals, and half my time was spent in bed.
 Lydia B, Pinkhams Vegetable Compound made me we'll woman, and feel so grateful that I am glad to write and tell you of my marvellous recovery. It brought me health, new life and vitality. Mrs. Bessie Ainsley, 611 South 10th Street, Tacoma, Wash.
 What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound did for Mrs. Ainsley it will do for every sick and ailing woman. 4 If yQu have symptoms you don't un- derstafld write to Mrs. Pinlsham, at Lynn, Mass. Her advice is free and always helpful. -~.

 Gator Is a born yentrilioquist, and in the thirty -odd years of his life he has developed his natural powers to a truly wonderful extent. Not only does he throw his voice to any point within. earshot, but, with his lips tightly clos ed, he initiates with marvellous accur- acy the tones of the violin, the blare of the cornet, the shrill pipe, of the. clarinet, the boom of the base horn an the tones of half dozen other nusi- cal instruments. And, as with ordin- ary speech, he has the power to pro- pect these sounds where he will, losing none of their harmony or accuracy. A band in his throat that's what the doctors and throat specialists call it, and they have told Gator that such an extraordinary arrangement of the vocal cords as is his is rare indeed.

He called me in to the front office and told me was too good to be working for the company and he was going to give me a chance to get away and look for work with a side show. He gave it to me all right. When I came out here I got d job on the cable cars, but never put any more unfortunates under the wheels. Instead, I used to make the wheels You got a hot box down there,' a passenger said to me one night, and then I made the wheel play Dixie for him, and he tumbled. .@s
