There are cases where an operation
is the only resource, but when one con-
siders the great number of cases of
menacing female troubles cured by
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound after physicians have ad vised
operations, no woman should submit to
one without first trying the Vegetable
Compound and writing Mrs. Pinkham,
Lynn, Mass, for advice, which is free.
Miss Margret Merkley, of 275 Third
Street, Milwaukee, Wis, writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
"Loss Of strength, extreme nervousness,
shooting pains through the pelvic organs,
bearing down pains and cramps compelled
me to seek medical advice. The doctor, after
making an examination, said had a female
trouble and liberation and advised an opera
ton. To this strongly objected and decided
to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound. The liberation, quickly healed, all
the bad symptoms disappeared and am

WANTED TO. FIND OUT.
Statesman Had Doubts as to Whether
Senator Riddleberger Was Able
to Agree with Himself.

Senator Blackburn tells a story OF
the days when Riddleberger was a
senator from Virginia, which recalls
the late Senator Harris, of Tennes-
see. AL these senators were then mem.
bers of the committee on the District
of Columbia, and there was a fran
chise bill of some kind pending. over
which there was some contention. II
was referred to subcommittee OF
which Riddleberger, Harris and two
other senators were members. There
were two reports, Riddleberger max
ing The minority report.
The bill was referred to another
committee, R1ddleberger being the man
reappointed, with, two different sena-
tors, and again he made a. minority
report; ~ When, the question came up
as to What SHOULD be done with the
bill. Senator Harris said, in his pre-
else and emphatic manner:
"Mr. Chairman, I move that this
bill be again referred to a subcom-
mittee, and that. the subcommittee
shall consist of the senator from Vir-
ginia. I make this suggestion in or.
der TO ascertain If the senator from
Virginia can agree with himself"
