AhNcrlinr Nnmr Poultry.

There was a farmer who had been
breeding pure-blood chickens for some
years. and he always sold what he had
in poultry and eggs, without any trou-
be to his ncighbors and little market
town. but he had never thought about
msning this little by-business of his
regular vocation Of farming.
Finally it was suggested 70 him that
he ought to advertise the poultry
branch of his business and extend it
somewhat, but he was timid about sink
ing 4 few dollars already in hand in
printers ink with the view of getting
uncertain dollars. Finally, however,
after talking the matter over with his
wife, he invested a few dollars. He
made $40 ont of this venture He now
advcrtiSes extensively ana does big
business.

A COUNTRY OF TROUSERS.
Women Work in Them--Even the Don
KEYS Sport STRIPED Ones.

There is point on the coast of France
where not only the men but the women
and donkeys too wear trousers.
At He de Re the peasant women work
in the salt and the oyster beds, catch
shrimps and take their turn in the fields.
They don't draggle around in petticoats,
however, but wear baggy knee breechcs,
loose waists and light colored sunbon-
nets.
The sabots Of the winter have been put
aside and the feet are left bare, al
though the legs Of old stockings are often
drawn up as far as the knee as Il pro-
lection from the heat and insects.
1t is, indeed, a country of trousers.
Nor does it stop with humanity, for
many of the dOnkcys as well wear long
striped red and white or blue and white
coverings on their legs, which look very
much like the remnants of Uncle Sans

One of the greatest triumphs of
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound Is the conquering u woman's
dread enemy Tumor.
The growth of tumor is so in
sidious that frequently its presence
is wholly unsupported until 1t is well
advanced.
So called wandering pains" may
come from its early stages OF the
presence of danger may be made
manifest by excessive monthly peri
DDS accompanied by unusual pain, from
the abdomen through the groin and
thigh.
If you have mysterious pains, If
there are indications Of inflammation
or displacements, secure a bottle OF
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, made from native roots and
herbs, right away and begin its use.
The following letters should con-
vince every suffering woman Of its
virtue, and that 1t actually does
conquer tumors.
Mrs. May Fry, of S36 w. Colfax
Ave-, South Bend, Ind, writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
Il take great pleasure in writ
ing to thank you for what Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has

Purifier In alternate doses with the
Compound. Your medicine removed a
cyst tumor of four years growth,
which three of the best physicians
declared l had. They had said that
only an operation could help me. am
very thankful that followed friends
advice and took your medicine. 1t has

l suffered with great pain. l wrote

PEELED the tumor and strengthened my
whole system"
Mrs. S. J.. Barber, of Scott, N. Y.
writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
Sometime ago / wrote you for
advice about a tumor which the doc
tors thought would have to be removed.
Instead l took Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound and to-day am a

Mrs. M. M. Funk, Vandergrift. Pa.
writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-

hams Vegetable Compound removed
it for me after two doctors had given
me up. was sick four years before
began to take the Compound. l now
recommend Lydia E. Pinkham's Veget-
able Compound far and near"
Such testimony as above Is con-
vincing evidence that Lydia e. Pink

without a peer as remedy for Tumor
Growths as we'll as other distressing
ills of women, and such symptoms as
Bearing down Sensations, Displace-
ments, Irregularities and Backache.

is Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
