COFFEE IMPORTERS

Four-Footed Thieves.
In Winchester, England, a grocer
began to miss money from his till,
and set his wife to watch. After two
weeks the wife was not able to de-
tect the thief, though money was
stolen almost every day. There were
two clerks in the store, and the
grocer finally called them thieves
and discharged them.
When two others had taken their
places the money continued to dis
appear, and the case was given to the
police. An officer who hid under the
counter solved the problem. He
found bits of paper representing
about $50 that the mice had made
nests of. They had entered the till

While no woman is entlreiy free from
periodical suffering, it does not seem to
be the plan of nature that women
should suffer SO severely. This is a
severe strain on a woman's vitality.
When pain exists something is wrong
which should be set right or it will
lead to n serious arrangement of the
whole female organism.
Thousands of women have testified
in grateful letters to Mrs. Pinlsham
that Lydia e. Pinlxham's Vegetable
Compound overcomes woman's special
pains and Irregularities.
1t provides a safe and sure way of
escape from distressing and dangerous
weaknesses and diseases.
The two following letters tell so con-
vincingly what Lydia E. Pinkham' S
Vegetable Compound will do for
women, the cannot fail to bring hope
to thousands of sufferers.
Miss Nellie Holmes, of $40 N. Division
Street, Buffalo, N. Y, writes:
