Rate Is the Largest.
New York, March 2.-Health Com
missioner Darlington has given out a
comparative statement of the death
rates of New York and London in
which he says that there were 1885
deaths in New York last year and IT,.
094 in London. The estimated popu.
lation of both cities is New York,
S,666,000; London, 4,694,000. The
death rate per thousand is London
1853 and New York 2023.
New York had 5,195 deaths from ac-
cidents, while in London there were
4,O68, but the Slocum disaster added
1000. Smallpox conditions here are
much better than in London.
One great reason for the higher
death rate in this city is that we draw
from a greater area than London.

 Women suffering from any form of female weakness are invited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. All letters are received, opened, read and answered by women only. A woman can freely talk of her private illness to a woman thus has been established the eternal confidence between Mrs Piakham and the women of America which has never been broken. Out of the vast volume of experience which she has to draw from, it is more than possible that she has gained the very knowledge that will help your case. She asks nothing in return except your goodwill, and her advice has relieved thousands. Surely any woman, rich or poor, is very foolish if she does not take advantage of this generous offer of assistance
 If you are i'll, don't hesitate to get bottle of Lydia E. Pink ham sVegetable Compound at once, and write Mrs Pink ham. Lynn. Mass, for special advice.

Proper Treatment of Pneumonia.

Pneumonia is too dangerous a disease
for anyone to attempt to doctor himself,

dies at hand. A physician should always
be called. 1t should be borne in mind,
however, that pneumonia always results
from a cold or from an attack Of the
grip, and by the proper treatment oil
these diseases a threatened attack Of
pneumonia may be warded of, There
is no question whatever about this, as
during the thirty years and more that
