sasThe Pinkhams had no money, and

was the kitchen, where roots and
herbs were stepped on the stove,

setting forth the merits of the medi-

Vegetable Compound, and these were
distributed by the Pinkham sons in
Boston, New York, and Brooklyn.
The wonderful curative properties of
the medicine were, to a great extent,
self-advertising, for whoever used it
recommended it to others, and the de-
mand gradually increased.

1fieked by Dyspepsia
The Doctor Couldn't Tell Where the
Trouble Lay

For the past seven years I have
been victim of dyspepsia and chronic
constipation and have consulted the
most noted specialists to be found on
diseases of this character. None, how
ever, seemed to locate the difficulty or
treatment, ! have resorted to the use
of many remedies and have given them
faithful trial, but all to no purpose.
Upon the recommendation of close
friend, / purchased soc package Of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and in less
than five days noticed that 1 was re-
ceiving more benefit than from any
to use the tablets after each meal for
one month and by, that time my stom-
ach was in healthy condition, capable
of digesting anything which my in
creasing appetite demanded.
I have not experienced any return
of my former trouble, though three
months have elapsed since taking your
We wish that you could see with, your
own eyes the countless other bona
fide signed letters from grateful men
and women all over the land who had
suffered years Of agony with dyspep-
STA, tried every known remedy and con-
suited eminent specialists without re-
suit, until they cave Stuart's Dyspepsia
they couldn't locate the seat Of the
trouble. 49,. j.,
Dyspepsia is disease which has long
bafhed physicians. So difficult of To-
cation is the disease that cure seems
next to miraculous. There is only one
way to treat dyspepsia-to supply the
elements which nature has ordained to
perform this function and to cause
them to enter the digestive organs,
supplying the fluids which they lack.
Stuart s Dyspepsia Tablets alone fill
these requirements, as is shown by the
fact that 100000 physicians in the
United States and Canada unite in rec
ommending them to their patients for
stomach disorders.
We do not claim or expect Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets to cure anything but
disordered conditions Of the stomach
and other digestive organs, but this
they never fail to do They work upon
the inner lining of the stomach and
intestines, stimula to the gastric glands
and aid in the secretion of juices nee
essary to Digestion.
Stuart g Dyspepsia Tablets are for
sale by all druggists at so cents box.
One box will frequently effect a per-
feet cure. If in doubt and wish more

VISION SHOWED SON DEAD.
Italian Mothers Dream Followed by
Discovery Of Body.

A strange case Of telepathy in CON
nection with a murder is arousing
much interest in Milan, Italy. A wo-
man named Lazzaroni awoke sudden
ly at three o'clock the other morning,
and calling her son John, who lives
in her house, told him that his
younger brother, Leopold, living in
the outskirts of the town, was dead
The mother was deeply affected,
but John tried to comfort her by as
cribing her fears to a bad dream. At
dawn, however, Leopold La2zaroni, a
handsome and strong young man, the
owner of a dairy, was found dead at
a spot some distance from his dwell
ling. After having made an examina-
ton Of the body the doctors affirmed
that Leopold had been murdered &C,
tually at three o'clock in the morn
ing.
The next day the culprits were ar
rested.
The facts of the mothers vision,
which have been duly authenticated,
are the subject OF endless discussion.

PLATFORM FOR LOADING ICE.
viii Greatly Help in the Loading Of
the Wagons.

A platform for loading ice should be
erected if you have much ice ia
handle, although if you draw it on a
sled it will not be necessary. The
platform should be eight or ten feet
square or large enough to hold two
loads of ice and allow space for load
ing. 1t must be strongly built and
set where the wagons can get to il
without sharp pull uphill. The in
cline from the platform to the ponC
must be only wide enough to comfort
ably hold the cakes, with sides raised
four to six inches above the bottom
The latter should be made Of 2X3's
smooth on top, placed six inches apar
and three inches from the sides which
will make chute q inches wide il
three pieces are used. 1t must be Sc
cured firmly to the platform and
should extend far enough into the
water SO the cakes Of ice can BE-
foSed onto it.
Two men with push-and-pull pixies
saws the Farm and Home, will run G
lot of ice from pond to platform Il
they have good footing and the chute
is not too steep. If much ice is to b.
handled it will be necessary to use {
horse to pull it up. In this case {
rope attached to a grapple can be
used and three or four cakes pulled

BROKE THE WILDCATS BACK.
Philadelphia Man Victorious In Hand
to-Hand Combat.

Unarmed and alone, Thomas Dyke
was attacked by a wildcat on Locust
mountain, south Of Mount Carmel, Pa.
He had been in Ashland and started
to drive home. His horse stepped on
a nail and he put the animal in a sta
bic.
Then he started to walk home and
was on the mountain when the cries
of a wildcat alarmed him. A few
minutes later he saw the beast ten
feet in front of him. The animal
finally spraug. He jumped aside and
as the body of the cat struck the road
he leaped upon it. For several min
utes the fight between the wild ami
NAL and the man went on. AT length
by a quick swing he broke the ami
mails back.

deep scratches on his face and hands
but otherwise he was uniniured
