Mrs. Pinkham claims that there is a
kind of dyspepsia that is caused by
arrangement of the female organism,
and which, while it causes a disturb
ance similar to ordinary Indigestion,
cannot be relieved without a medicine
which not only acts as stomach tonic,
but has a peculiar tonic effect on the fe-
male organism.
AS proof of this theory we call at
tention to the case of Mrs. Maggie
Wright, Brooklyn, N. Y, who was
completely cured by Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound after every
thing else had failed. She writes:
"For two years l suffered with dyspepsia
which so degenerated the entire system that
was unable to attend to my daily duties. L
felt weak and nervous. and nothing that ate
tasted good and it caused disturbance in my
stomach. I tried different dyspepsia cures,
but nothing seemed to help me. was ad-
yised to give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound trial and was happily surprised
to find that it acted like fine tonic, and III
fewdays began to enjoy and properly digest
my food Ny recovery was rapid, and IN
FIVE weeks was a well woman. l have rec
commended it to many suffering women"
No other medicine in the world has
received such widespread and unquall,
fed endorsement or has such record
of cures of female troubles, as has LYDIA
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

1t is doubtful if there is more healthy

case Of typhoid fever in the town, except it
has been brought there from some other

by a local physician to the absence of wells
in the town. There is hardly dozen OF

phases of construction were continued

necessary, because of promise OF business,
to enlarge upon the Cape Jellson dock and
yard facilities as provided IN 1900, ana con-
struction at that part of the terminal for
present traffic needs is only now being
brought to a close. The property has been
provided upon belief that, as heretofore,
the industrial expansion of Northern Maine
will be limited only to the transportation
facilities furnished; that there need be no
dimnution in the increase in volume OF
carload and tranload distribution of the
produce and manufactures ex all-rall,
which increase has been steady since, IN

Indian Summer.

November comes like dame distressed,
With pale brow all afrown,
Her lips drawn thin and close compressed,
Her long hair tumbing down;
And now she's listless, calm and still,
And forces back her tears,
And now she means and raves until
The conquering winter hears
IT'S then she yields with tender grace,
BeWitcheS autumn days,
And glides away with sunny face
Soft yelled in purple haze.

Revival Meetings.

Beginning next Tuesday. February
9Th, there will be daily meetings for the
quickening and deepening of the Cn-is-
tian life. These meetings will be under
the direction of the Baptist Church Of
Delta. Brother Lane, who will assist,

Towner and Stebbins and in the Chap
man meetings in Denver last winter.
His opening address comes from his
own experience in Wales, last summer.
As pastor of the Baptist Church, l
cordially invite all Christians to partic-
ipate in prayer and effort to lead our
unsaved friends to fully trust in the
finished work Of Christ.

that the new store rooms are to be &C.

theory that there are enough merchants

that all the boosting should be for more
homeseekers and ranchers. And with
those conditions in view there is no
town on the Western Slope that can
show an equal future with that of Del
