SHIRT WAIST OR BLOUSE 5411.

The comfort of the shirt waist made with elbow sleeves and with the round collar is so apparent that it is very nearly impossible to supply the de- mand. This one shows two wide tucks in each front. so providing becoming fullness. and is adapted to madras. to linen. to lawn, to the soft finished pfque. to wash silks and all the waist
 ings of the season. In the illustration it is made of white linen lawn, a mate
 rial that always is satisfactory but exceedingly pretty ones are made from dotted lawns and from the pretty wash silks, the former material being a pc culiarly satisfactory one for the shirt waist dresses designed for home wear.

w. c. WILSON'S coNDITloN-

w. Os WILOOIN T Some apprehension is felt over the condition of w. C. Wilson. who cut his foot with an ax more than week ago. A few days after the accident, signs of blood poisoning set in and it became necessary to remove him from his resi- dence in the country to the Sisters hospital. He remained there until last Sunday, when there was so much inn provement that it was thought it would be safe for him to go home. On Tues day the pain was renewed. and as it extended the whole length of the leg his friends believed that he was suf- fering from an attack of rheumatism and he was treated for that. The pain grew more violent. The doctor was called and yesterday Mr Wilson was brought back to the hospital.

and Investigating mind, an earnest
seeker after knowledge, and above
all, possessed of a wonderfully sympa-
thetic nature.
In 1s43 she married Isaac Pinkham,
a builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked bv
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children, three sons and .
daughter.
In those good old fashioned DAYS it
was common for mothers to make
their own home medicines from roots
and herbs, natures own remedies
calling in a physician only in specially
urgent cases. By tradition and eX-
perience many of them gained a. won
derful knowledge of the curative prop
critics Of the various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinkham took a great interest
in the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power over disease.
She maintained that just as nature so
bountifully provides in the harvest
fields and orchards vegetab BILE foods of
all kinds; SO, if we but take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
OF the field there are remedies eX-
pressly designed.to cure the various
ills and weaknesses of the body, and
it was her pleasure to search these out,
and prepare simple and effective medi-
cines for her own family and friends.
Chief of these was a rare combina-
tion of the choicest medicinal roots
and herbs found best adapted for the
cure of the ills and weaknesses pecu-
liar to the female sex, and Lydia E. Pink
hams friends and neighbors learned
that her compound relieved and cured
and it became quite popular among
them.
All this so far was done freely, with.
out money and without price, as a
labor of love.
But in 1878 the financial crisis struck
Lynn. Its length and severity were too
much for the large real estate interests
of the Pinkham family, as this class
of business suffered most from
fearful depression, so when the Centen-
nial year dawned it found their prop
erty swept away. Some other source
of income had to be found.
At this point Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound was made known
to the world. 4
The three sons and the daughter,
with their mother, combined forces to
