Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation.
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. Pinkham 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

Is most valuable gift and one which
is becoming rarer every day. The art
of loaiins is not properly understood
by the majority of people. Much has
been written on the subject. Steven

has some Illuminating remarks on the
subject in his Canadian canoe book
There is II subtle difference between
the views of these experts. Mr.. Gra-

Mr.. Pain pointed ont, with more truth,
that the great art of loaiing was to do
Tie easiest thing and that sometimes it
is easier to work than to be idle This
is The secret OF the whole matter. The
