One of the greatest triumphs of
Lydia E. Pinkhaln's Vegetable Com
pound is the conquering of woman's
dread enemy Tumor,
The growth of tumor is so in
sidious that frequently its presence
is wholly unsupported until it is well
advanced.
So called wandering pains" may
come from it's early stages or the
presence of danger may be made
manifest by excessive monthly periods
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 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 it actually does
conquer tumors.
Mrs. May Fry, of $50 w. Colfax
Ave. South Bend, Ind, writes:

BALLOONSFOR ARMY.
Preparations Are Under Way for Eek.
tensive Experiments.

Washington, Feb. 6.-Quietly but
with determination to satisfy him
self thoroughly on the subject. Cen
eral Allen, chief Signal officer of the
army, has been making preparations
for most extensive experiments with
balloons. airships and aeroplanes with
the view of settling upon some system
of aerial navigation for use in opera
t1ons of the army either in times of
peace or war. So
Recently there arrived in this
country from France a type of balloon
used by the French army which was
purchased by the signal corps in order
that its merits might be tested in com
petition with balloons of America
make, while in New York there is be-
ing constructed an immense balloon in
which 1t Is proposed that the men of
the corps shall make their ascents.
1t is their intention to conduct the
experiments at Fort Omaha, just out
side of Omaha. and for this purpose
$4,000 of money already appro-
priated has been allotted for fitting up
the fort with all the necessary ap-
pilanees. including gas tanks, repair
shops. ETC..
General Allen said TODAY that he
viii be prepared to conduct expert
Enents with every conceivable kind of
machine offered and all will be given
trial before board of officers but
stances will purchase plans of bal
looms or machines not already put to
practical tests.
General Allen said today that he
believed this country was far ahead
of any other in the matter of fying
machines. Already, he said there
had been developed some which would
furnish a few surprises.
1t is stated that the balloon corps of
t the French army numbers at least
500 men, all expert aeronauts and it
is expected by the department that be-
fore long the American army will have
an equipment superior to that of any
other army in the world.
Just how soon the experiments will
be made is not known, but General
Allen proposes to lose no time in COM
pleting the plant and he hopes that be-
fore many months to have the tests
under way.
