A TRAINED NURSE
After Years of Experience, Advises Women In
Regard to Their Health.

Mrs. Martha Pohlman
Of So Chester Avenue,
Newark, n. j., who is a
graduate Nurse from the
Blockley Training School,
at Philadelphia, and for
six years Chief Clinic
Nurse at the Philadelphia
Hospital, writes the letter
printed below. She has
the advantage of personal
experience, besides her
professional education,
and what she has to say
may be absolutely relied
upon.
Many other women are
afflicted as she was. They
can regain health in the
same way. 1t IS prudent
to heed such advice from
such a source.
Mrs. Pohlman writes:
II nm firmly persuaded,
after eight years Of experience
with Lydia f. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, that it
is the safest and best medicine
for any suffering woman to
use"
Immediately after my
marriage l found that my

Compound, for l have found thai it cures

is a grand medicine for sick women.n
Money cannot buy such testimony as
this-mcrit alone can produce such re-
suits, and the ablest specialists now
agree that Lydia f. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound is the most uniyer-
sally successful remedy for all female
diseases known to medicine.

Description Of
The New Bridge

One of the most prorafslng suburbs
of Fafrmont, is the BelHiew section.
There seems to be no doubt In the
minds of the promoters of this sec
ton but that Beiiview is to be an
important place within the next few
years. They are, furthermore, back
ing their judgments Ivy the expendt-
ture of immense sums of money. and
by formulating plans for larger expen.
ditures in the future AS was stated
in the West Virgtnian several days
ago, the contract for five houses has
been let, which are to be built in that
suburb; large lot sale will be held
there, in September; aad to-day this
aftfele gives in detail an account of
the bridge leading to- Bel1view. which
is being built by the traction com.
pany, which is being placed across
the Butfalo creek.
Whist ReIIvGew Relies Upon.
No town can prosper unless it has
something upon which IT can depend;
the people must have something by
which they can make money OF the

these few words Of philosophy Ia

awarded to McClintoc Marshall Con-
struction Company, of Pittshurs,
They are rapidly pushing the work
along; all trestles arc up except the
115-foot span over the creek.
The Cost.
1t is almost Impossible to know
what any bridge will cost before 1t Is
finished; there are always dificulties
turning up which tho expenditure Of
money alone can overcome. So it is
almost impossible at present to say
definitely what the cost Of the bridge
will be. However, It is estimated that
this one will cost something less than
$4,000.

amount to much If 1t did not have a
