One Of the greatest triumphs of
lydia K. 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 callad wandering pains" may
come from its 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, II
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.

STATE PRESS
The Sound Position

The Sound Position
Those resolutions sound to us like
anything but the resolutions Of an edi-
torial association. There was no word
of anything that would better the IN
dltion of the newspapers of the state,
but on the other hand, the resolutions
sounded as IL they had been prepared
for a country political convention or a
body of men whose personal interests
lay in defeating government control OF
the range. The resolutions as adopted
do not express the sentiment of all the
newspaper men Of the state. Granted
that each paper expresses the views
held by a majority of the stockmen and
settlers in its locality, and it must still
be conceded that there is a wide dl-
vergence of opinion on the subject In
different localities. The resolutions be-
gin with fulsome praise of Roosevelt
and are cunningly worked around to
fatty oppose his public land policy.
For our own locality we will say
that there is a decided difference OF
opinion as to n lease law. Each mar
is governed by his -individual interests.
There is little doubt that the majority
would be opposed to a lease law whose
administration would be in the hands
of Mr.. Pinchot or a bureau that Is not
well versed in western needs. Many
favor a lease system administered by
western men, many feel that their in
terests are by any leasing
plan whatsoever, while many others
see protection for themselves in being
able 70 lease a tract of range land o n
tiguous to their farms. With this va
riety of sentiment at home We would
find it difficult to speak for our locality,
much less do we concede the right of a
dozen of our fellow workers to speak
for the whole state. We do not under
stand that they condemned The forest
reserve policy as a whole, for few will
deny that in its inceptive principles 1t
is right although it has in many re-
spects been wofully bungled and
abused.
Why not as we'll pass resolutions on
the tariff. the Haywood trial, the ia
panese situation, the t~elegraphers'
strike or Wellman's attempt to reach
the pole? Such action as that taken at
Lander will do much to destroy the
usefulness of the association, by caus-
ing the public to regard it as an organ
ization whose object is to promote the
interests of individuals or political par
ties wholly apart from itself.-Thsr-

They were sitting on the veranda.
It was very late. AS they sat there
alone in the beautiful moonlight he
prayed for a friendly cloud to drift
across the face of the full moon. The
clouds were really drifting, but some
how not one would go into the corner
pocket. Then she lisped:
ooh, Mr.. darlington, did you ever
think how unlike the clouds you are?"
"N-no, Miss M~errywilkes, I don't
believe ever compared myself thus.
Why am l unlike the clouds? Is it
because 1 am all sunshfne?"
"No-oh, mol"
Then it must be-because i am
about to rein over your"
"oh, no" hastily ducking the storm.
ut is because the-look! See that
1eecy little one right near the moon!
See how it goes! goes! goes!"
"Yes," he responded sadly, a light
suddenly Illuminating his density. q
wonder where it goes?"
Then, c%onfusedly, he left. presum-
ably to consult a weather forecaster-
or to join a poker game and forget
all his other losses.
