One of the greatest triumphs of Lydia F.. Pinkham'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 unsuspected 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 peri ods accompanied by unusual pain, from the abdomen through the groin and thigh. -.-..- : .ta 4-@l

4 Philadelphia congregation was called upon not long ago to choosesoa pastor The last three ,ministersghad been persona non grata' wfth most of the barishionefs; and before selecting another the congregation did srseme' pretty hard thinking. There was one woman of experience whose voice car ried particular weight.

 The reason I am sure he will give, satisfaction she said, lis because he has the right kind of a wife for a minister.

A minister vents it on his congregation. That was why we couldn't stand the last preacher. This one will be all right. We won't hear peep out of him,
