Mrs. III. WriQhf

Mrs. Pinkham claims that there is a
kind of dyspepsia that is caused by a
arrangement of the female organism,
and which, while it causes disturb
ance similar to ordinary indigestion,
cannot be relieved without medicine
which not only acts as stomach tonic,
but has peculiar tonic effect on the fe-
male organism.
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 K. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound after every
thing else had failed. She writes:
"For two years l suffered with dyspepsia
which so degenerated the entire system that l
was unable to attend to my daily duties.
felt weak and nervous, and nothing that ate
tasted good and it caused disturbance in my
stomach. / tried different dyspepsia cures,
but nothing seemed to help me. / was adj
vised to give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound trial, and was happily surprised
to find that it acted like fine tonic, and in q
fewdays began to enjoy and properly digest
my food Ny recovery was rapid, and in
five weeks was a well woman. ! have rec
commended it to many suffering women"
No other medicine in the world has
received such widespread and unquali-
fed endorsement or has such a record
of cures of female troubles, as has Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

some Thing"

This one thing let us do:
Henceforward with one heart and mind
Forgetting all that lies behind
And reaching forth unto
The things before-let us press on
Until our glorious prize be won.
Needless Of toll and pain and strife.
Athirst for more abundant life,
Desiring that our souls may grow
Into His likeness and to know
As we are known. so let us press
On In the path of holiness.
This one thing let us do.
And through the years that come and 60
Our consecrated lives shall know
The fullness of our Fathers love.
The depths below. the heights above.
Our shelter r. His secret place,
Our joy the stirring Of His face.

deavor Times.

For Others Too.

More than mere growth is expected
OF plant. Healthy juices may be in
tn veins, it may have vigor sufficient
Tor Its own sustenance and yet be no
armament. but an incumbrance to the
place 1t fills. Flower or fruit, some
1oveliness of tint, some grace of wav-
ing spray or comforting shades, we al
ways look for in the growths Of earth.
And so Of spiritual development. More
than mere living. more than mere in
ward satisfaction, is required of US.
Our best gifts, those that we count as
peculiarly ours, are not for ourselves
alone. They are hardly our own until
they have found expression in blossom
and fruitage. Our prayer must be not
only, "Let Thy life be within u.s." but
also, LET the beauty of the Lord our
God be upon us"-Lucy Larcom.

Dear Mufnols:

Dear Mutuols:
Listen to my tale Of woe! We are having
water put in the house, had the drain dug,
and all under the house open when this snow
came. Can you imaginef To-day is Sunday
and it is being broken here. Yes, the thing
must be finished before anything else breaks
loose; and the sink drain is up for repairs and
the pipe from the sink broken and had to go
to town to be mended; washing dishes on the
pantry table; Stops and mud all over the
house; the men scolding over cold fingers;
our new horse sick with the horse all, and the
whole lot of us shut up and in because the
school teacher had the scarlet fever here and
we expect Brenda and our chore boy to be
taken with it any time now.
But all of this is as nothing when I think
that Dell, our j. p, called me an old woman.
See, there's always last straw, you know,
and that's it with me-to be called an old
woman right on top of having very youthful
suit and darling little bonnet, with flower
garden on it,. Well, it's too awful to contem-
plate give it up, and come back to COM
mon things again; like some of our cabbages
being out under the snow, and that we own
four live cats, and have no rocking chairs for
ourselyes-just enough for the cats. Now
you've heard about my woes; have the SYM
pathy of the NJ. B.'sa
am so glad the sun shines once more, and
that we are to have pin. Shall order mine
very soon; wish you all could see my pretty
chrysanthemum. 'Tis a joy.
As this isn't really letter, III say bye-bye
till you hear from me again. Yours truly,
AUNT MARIA.
AUNT MADeE.

Marialhas got so strong again, and / advise
her to cut the white waists out this winter

Was interested, too, in Susan's account of
her beautiful new home, and of course she

abouts, and hope she will get through the
winter well and happy.
VIII add just word more before close on
the clipping Aunt Emma furnished this week,
and the thought from Aunt Madge suggested
by it. l certainly ought to appreciate the
truth of it when I've had two vacations within
this year and SO many pleasant things to re-
member in connection with them both.
just wish 1 could have had you all with me
on that ride to schoodic mountain and that
grand outlook that enioyed-such wonder
full panorama of sea and land, islands and
bays, mountains and wales, that will furnish
a beautiful picture for many day.
With love to all. SLY.
P. s.-There is one thing meant to have
asked by Sister B. "How was the chicken
jill" or loaf" made, we call it, It's the
simplest thing in the world, Sister B. All
you have to do is to cut up your chicken and
add your seasoning, putting water enough to
cover, and cook til real tender; then remove
all bones, mincing the chicken somewhat so
the different parts will be well mixed, and
pour into q deep dish, juice and all, and the
next morning or in few hours, il cold
weather, it will be all solid, ready to turn out
on a platter and serve. It makes pretty
dish for the table as well as palatable.

ARLINGTON, Mass, Oct. q, 1906.
Dear Aunt Madge:
Thinking that you and the sisters might be
interested in my visit to Massachusetts, l
have decided to improve this rainy day, fear
ing l shall be too busy to write when re-
turn to Maine. Then l shall be busy try
ing to make for the editor some of the good
things like what he got at the reunion last
summer.
Speaking of eating, reminds me of the de-
lightful day spent with relatives at the food
fair in Boston. When was tasting the vari-
Gus kinds of cocoa, matted milk and beef tea,
I thought how profitable and enjoyable it
would be, if Aunt Madge and the "sisters"
could attend in body such fair.
The baking of biscuits in glass enclosed
electric oven was very interesting. No open
ing of the oven door was necessary to tell the
cook when the biscuits were done, for all the
process of baking could be seen through the
glass sides.
While the palate was being pleased by the
taste of delicate griddle-cakes and various
connections of gelatine, the ear was delighted
by the fine music rendered by Sousa's band.
While visiting my daughter, who teaches
French and German in the high school at
Amesbury, Mass, l visited the home and
grave of Whittier. At his home we saw some
of his books in the very order in which he
had left them, also the desk at which he sal
when he wrote "Snow Bound. There were
many other things of interest, too numerous
to mention, among them the shawl that Whit
tier wore a great deal. 1t was a great pleas
| ure to meet people who knew the poet per-
sonally, and who told us many interesting
things connected with his life and work. The
poets birthplace in Haverhill, Mass, was
even more interesting than his home in
great person give us a fine idea of what his
childhood enjoyed.
The house in which the poet was born
contains eight or nine rooms-we were shown
four on the lower foor-the kitchen being
| the largest and most interesting, with its
large fireplace in front of which was the
largest braided rug ever saw-it must have
| been three or four yards in diameter. The
| house, from which no other house is visible
ideal home for poet. This home was the
scene of "Snow Bound.
One finds Maine people everywhere / had
a very pleasant surprise in being introduced
to some neighbors of my brother, to find
that the doctor was born in North Ellsworth
and his wife in Holden. We found we had
mutual acquaintances, and they were de-
lighted to see copy of THE ELLSWORTH
AMERICAN. / hope some time to introduce
them to the editor and Aunt Madge.
Yours sincerely,
Ellsworth American. [volume] (Ellsworth, Me.) 1855-current, 1906-11-14

Dear Mutttdls:
Eco I'd.

Dear Mutadts:
1t SHOWS and it blows and looks very much
as though winter had really reached us, but
ere this letter is printed it may be as mild as
May. But we must take it as it comes, and I
have wondered since it began to snow yester-
day morning. il Aunt Maria has said: pm
glad its showing" Now, Aunt Maria can't
really say I'm glad, for it has sort of inter-
fered with pet plan had in mind, but then
we can't always have our way, and no doubt
it's well we can't.
Possibly some of you have wondered why
haven't reported since our annual gathering
when am apt to be one of the first, and 1
really did mean to long ago, but as usual have
been busy and neglected it. Nearly two
weeks of my time passed attending the
associational meetings at Bar Harbor and
then at my old home across the bay. Home,
and yet not home with father and mother
gone; vacancy that can never be filed. But
it is comforting thought to know they are
safe on the other side and somehow, some
time hope to find them there.
met many dear friends and one girlhood
friend whom haven't seen for many years,
and it was great pleasure. l also had the
pleasure of visiting &C." in her coy home,
and of course our annual gathering was re-
ferred to and the mutual disappointment in
her not being with us.
Here is recommendation on freless cook
ing. One sister said; bake my beans that
way all the time, and my John and like
them so much better that shall cook them
that way all winter. Have read with interest
all the letters, one after another has re-
ported. Am pleased indeed to know Aunt
