that the last two attractions that

a disappointment to the audience,
but forthis the management is not

FINANCE AND TRADE REVIEW
DuN's WEEKLY SUMMARY
Violent Decline in Stock Market Not
Reflection Of the Real Business
Conditions.

r. G. Dun & Co.'S weekly review
of trade says:
The violent decline in prices OF Sc
curities is no criterion of business
conditions. Railway earnings have
continued to surpass those of the
corresponding period in any previous
year, the gain for April being 9.3
per cent. over the same amount OF
1905 and other standards of meas
ure were unusually gratifying ex-
hibits.
Liabilities of failures last month
showed a decrease of over 40 per
cent in manufacturing and ~ per
cent in trading branches OF business
as compared with the previous year.
The only drawbacks regarding the
future are the labor controversies and
the stringency in the money market,
neither Of which may prove of more
than temporary duration. Manufac-
turing plants report little idle ma
chinery, and trade in seasonable
merchandise feels the impetus of set
tied weather.
Foreign commerce for the last week
shows gains of s14 ,909,972 in exports
and S2,943,729 in imports, as COM
pared with the same week last year,
commodity prices are well maintained
by good demand and the crop out
look Is fully as bright as usual at this
date, while in many departments in
creased acreage is under cultiva-
ton.
OF greatest importance to the iron
and steel industry of all events of the
past week was the strike of the
longshoremen on the lake water
front If this struggle is not prompt
ly settled it will soon become i'm
possible to maintain pig iron produc-
tion at the highest point on record.
Otherwise the strikes on May 1 were
not of sufficient magnitude to affect
the progress of the steel business.
Failures for the week are PIP,
against 215 the previous week.. 1919
the preceding week and 212 the cor
responding week last year.
Continued favorable weather has
allowed good progress in planting, the
termination of crops, the enlargement
of country retail trade, improved re-
orders for summer goods and the
placing with confidence of volume of
fall orders fully equal to year ago.
Collections also have measurably inn
proved. Easier money for legitimate
business needs is likewise foreshad-
owed.
Railway earnings are large clear
ings still make records for this sea-
son of the year and the call for re-
placement at San Francisco is a
feature helpful to trade in many lines.
There are of course, some few unfav-
orable features in general industry.

seeker after knowledge, and above
all, possessed of wonderfully sympa-
thetic nature.
In ls43 she married Isaac Pinkham.
builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children, three sons and a
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 physician only in specially
urgent cases. BY tradition and ex-
perience many of them gained won
derful knowledge of the curative prop
critics of the various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinkham took 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 vegetable 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 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 1873 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. Pinkhams
Vegetable Compound was made known
to the world.

what her money really went for:

herself $3.50 piano and $3.50 dia-

the ring. There was always some
regret that she didn't lose the piano.
