-Mre Bessie Mnsley

To be such successful wife, to re-
tain the love and admiration of her
husband, to inspire him to make the
most of himself, should be woman's
constant study.
If a woman finds that her energies
are tagging, that she gets easily tired,
dark shadows appear under her eyes,
she has backache, headaches, bearing
down pains, nervousness, Irregularities
or the blues, she should start at once
to build up her system by tonic with
specific powers, such as Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound.
Following we publish by request a
letter from a young wife:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
Ever since my child was born have suf-
fered, as hope few women ever have, with in
f1ammation, female weakness, bearing-do
pains, backache and wretched headaches. 1t
affected my stomach so could not enjoy my
meals, and half my time was spent in bed.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
made me well woman, and feel so grateful
that am glad to write and tell you of my
marvellous recovery. 1t brought me health,
new life and vitality Mrs. Bessie Ainsley,
Gil South 10th Street, Tacoma, Wash.
What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound did for Mrs. Ainsley it will
do for every sick and ailing woman.
If you have symptoms you don't un-
derstand write to Mrs. Pinkham,
daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham,
at Lynn, Mass. Her advice is free and
always helpful.

Macon, Ca, Sept 18-Joseph c.
keeps a store near Pleasant Hill, in
Vineville, fired three times on Black
Morton, a negro driver for Armour &

ly, after the negro had prepared to
advance on him with knife. Imme-
diately afterwards a mob of several
hundred angry negroes gathered and
1t took the presence of Sheriff Geo.
Robertson and several deputies with
Jailer Hubbard, working as a squad
of armed officers to keep down what
promised to be nothing less than a
riot.
The killing occurred in a negro Sec
ton and in a moment after Morton
was killed they began 'congregating
AMI making threats Smith boarded
car and came down town to sur
render. When he reached the sher-
ifs office, the matter was related, the
man was taken in charge and the
sheriff went Immediately to the
scene of trouble.
1t took some time to get the true
cause of the killing, as high excite
ment had run among the negroes. Nor
ton lay face downward, a knife at one
side, and many unruly negroes stand
ing around. For some time the situa-
alton looked dangerous, but there was
no further trouble and the affair has
apparently been forgotten.
Morton went to the store with some
beef which he said Smith had order
ed last week and wanted to deliver it.
Smith denied having made the order
and cursing followed Each called
the other bad names until they final
ly began fighting. When Morton drew
his knife, Smith drew a 80 caIiber
revolver and began firing. Every shot
took effect, and Morton keeed over
dead. A coroner's jury has rendered
a verdict justifying Smith ON the
grounds of self-defense.

A Woman's Back

region, disagreeable drains from pelvic
organs, faint spells with general weakness.
If any considerable number of the above

tains not drop of alcohol or harmful, or
habit-forming drugs. It's ingredients are
all printed on the bottle-wrapper and at
tested under oath as correct.
Every ingredient entering into UFa-
vorite Prescription has the written en-
dorsement of the most eminent medical
writers of all the several schools of prac-
tice-more valuable than any amount of
non-professfonal stimonials-though the
latter are not lacking, having been con-
tributed voluntarily by grateful patients
in numbers to exceed the endorsements
given to any other medicine extant for
the cure of woman's ills.
You cannot afford to accept any medicine
of unknown composition as a substitute
for this well proven remedy OF KNOWN
COMPOSITION, even though the dealer may
make little more profit thereby. Your

to any selfish interest of his and it is an
