Three FACTS
For Sick Women
To Consider

FIRsT.-That almost every operation
in our hospitals performed upon women
becomes necessary through neglect OF
such symptoms as backache, irregular
and painful periods. displacements
of the female organs, pain in the side,
burning sensation in the stomach,
bearing-down pains, nervousness, dig
illness and sleeplessness.
SECoND.-The medicine that holds
the record for the largest number of
absolute cures of female ills is Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
1t regulates, strengthens and cures
diseases of the female organism as
nothing else "a
For thirty years it has been helping
women to be strong, curing backache,
nervousness, kidney troubles, infiam-
nation of the female organs, weak
ness and displacements, regulating
the periods perfectly and overcoming
their pains. 1t has also proved itself
invaluable in preparing women for
childbirth and the change of life.
TH1RD.-The great volume of unso-
-licited and grateful testimonials on file
at the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass, many of which are from time to
time published by permission, give alb
solute evidence of the value of Lydia
e. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
Mrs. Pinkham's advice.
Mrs. Plnkltam's Standing Invitation
to Women.-Women suffering from any
form of female weakness are invited to
promptly communicate with Mrs Pink
ham, at Lynn, Mass. All letters are
received, opened. read and answered
by women only. From symptoms given,
your trouble may be located and the
quickest and surest way of recovery
advised. Mrs. Pinkham is daughter
in-law of Lydia g. Pinkham and for
twenty-five years under her direction
and since her decease she has been adj
visingsick womenfre o. charge. Outof
the vast volume of experience in treat
ing female ills Mrs Pinkham probably
has the very knowledge that will help
your case. Surely, any woman, rich or
poor, is very foolish if she doesnot take
advantage of this generous offer of
assistance.

PEARLS OF THOUGHT.
nifty is the mother Of vice.

Vanity is the mother OF vice.
Putty and piety are not the same.
The praise Of holiness is not its pur-
suit.
It's your life that lifts the prayer Of
your lips.
Every good deed helps make a track
for others.
The only joy you can keep is that
you scatter.
A divine price must be paid for
heavenly peace.
The parlor-car church gets hooked
On the wrong train.
They who welcome new truth never
have to wait long for it.
He who has glal news need not be
afraid of making a noise.
1t is likely to be the faith more than
the food that makes the feast.
Everything that strengthens home
ties binds closer Heavens bands.
Dewdrops of piety are very pretty
but they evaporate before any thirsty
ones get to them.
The great question is not whether
you have failed but whether you are

Now we come to a frisky lot, the
Labor Union" editors. You know
down in Texas a weed called Loco"
Is sometimes eaten by a steer and
produces a arrangement of the
brain that makes the steer "batty"
or crazy. Many Of these editors
are "Locoed" from hate of anyone
who will not instantly obey the
demands" Of a labor union, and it
is the universal habit Of such writ
ers to go straight into a system of
personal utilization, manufacturing
any sort of falsehood through which
to vent their spleen. We assert that
the common citizen has a right to
live and breathe air without asking
permission of the labor trust, and
this has brought down on us the
hate of these editors. When they
go far enough with their libels, is it
harsh for us to get judgment against
them and have our lawyers watch
for a chance to attach money due
them from others? For they are
usually Irresponsible.
Keep your eye out for the "Lo-
coed' editor.

WANT AMERICAN HUSBANDS.

Wealthy Foreigners Here Declare

while our matchmaking mamas
are doing their best to marry their
girls to titled foreigners" said a wom-

bition of the foreign mothers who
have come to America Is to have their
girls marry Americans.
mo, it is not for the sake of any
business advantage which might &C
r u from a thorough knowledge of
the language and customs on the part
of the husband. All those things they
acquire with remarkable rapidly. It
is simply because they are impressed
with the kindness of the American
nan in his family relations. his chival-
ry to women.
"There is the mother of m of my
most recent pupils, for example. The
family are wealthy foreigners who
have been here but six months, and l
doubt if they number more than three
or four American families among
their acquaintance; yet it is already
decided that Etelka when she marries
must get an American husband.
Etelka is only II. SO you can see that
the maternal provision is looking far
ahead.
"Only the other day Mrs. w. said
to me in all sincerity: 1T is my desire
very much-that Etelka should
know the little Americans, those of
gentle birth, as friends, more than our
own people. She is young yet, but
the years slip by and when she is IL
and Of age to marry, I much hope 1t
will be an American. I will use my
influence to have 1t so. All, these
Americans! They are SO kind to their
wives-so gentle! A woman is happy.
In our country the men are less kind.

but vehement. Half / am afraid to in
vite Americans to our table lest they

Now let all these choice specimens
take notice:
We will deposit one thousand or
fifty thousand dollars to be covered by
a like amount from them, or any n of
them, and if there was eve n ounce
Of old bread or any other ingredient
different than our selected wheat and
barley with a little salt and yeast used
in the making of Grape-Nuts, we will
lose the money.
Our pure food factories are open at
all times to visitors, and thousands
pass through each month, inspecting
every department and every process.
Our factories are SO clean that one
| could, with good relish, eat a meal
from the floors.
The work people, both men and wo-
men. are Of the highest grade in the
State of Michigan, and according to the
State labor reports, are the highest paid
in the State for similar work.
Let us tell you exactly what you will
see when you inspect the manufacture
of Grape-Nuts. You will find tremen-
dous elevators containing the choicest
wheat and barley possible to buy.
These grains are carried through long
conyeyers to grinding mills, and there
converted into flour. Then the ma
chimes make selection Of the proper
quantities of this flour in the proper
proportion and these parts are blended
into a general flour which passes over
to the big dough mixing machines, there
water, salt and a little yeast are added
and the dough kneaded the proper
length of time.
Remember that previous to the bar
ley having been ground it was passed
through about one hundred hours Of
soaking in water, then placed on warm
floors and slightly sprouted, developing
the diastase in the barley, which
changes the starch in the grain into a
form of sugar.
Now after we have passed it into
dough and it has been kneaded lorg
enough, it is moulded by machinery
into loaves about 18 inches long and 8
or 6 inches in diameter. 1t is put into
this shape for convenience in second
cooking.
These great loayes are sliced by ma
chinery and the slices placed on wire
trays, these trays, in turn, placed on
| great steel trucks, and rolled into the
secondary ovens, each perhaps 20 or 80
feet long. There the food is subjected
to a long, low heat and the starch
| which has not been heretofore trans
| formed, is turned into a form of sugar
generally known as Post Sugar. 1t can
be seen glistening on the granules of
Grape-Nuts if held toward the light,
and this sugar is not poured over or
put on the food as these prevaricators
%ignorantly assert. On the contrary the
sugar exudes from the interior of each
little granule during the process of
manufacture, and reminds one of the
little white particles of sugar that come
out on the end of a hickory log after
it has been sawed off and allowed to
stand for a length Of time.
This Post Sugar is the most dlgesti-
BILE food known for human use. 1t is
SO perfect in its adaptability that moth
ers with very young infants will pour
a little warm milk over two or three
spoonfuls of Grape-Nuts. thus washing
the sugar of from the granules and
carrying 1t with the milk to the bottom

itched so it nearly made me crazy; my
hair also began to get dry and fall out. l
tried all kinds of hair restorers with no
effect, and l was nearly discouraged, but
one day / was reading in a paper what
the Cuticura Remedies had done for scalp
diseases, and decided to make a trial. L
got a cake of Cuticura Soap, a box of Gu

tiny cores on my scalp began to heal, the
itching stopped, and my hair began to
