LYDIA E. PINKHAM

Nature and a woman's work COM
bined have produced the grandest
remedy for woman's ills that the
world has ever known.
In the good old-fashioned days of
our grandmothers they relied upon
the roots and herbs of the field to
cure disease and mitigate suffering.
The Indians on our Western
Plains to-day can produce roots and
herbs for every ailment, and cure
diseases that battle the most skilled
physicians who have spent years in
the study of drugs.
From the roots and herbs of the
field Lydia E. Pinkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
of the world a remedy for their pc
cuiiar ills, more potent and effica-
clouS than any combination ofdrugs.
Lydia Z. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for woman's ills.
Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 515 NC. ST.,
Louisiana, Mo-, writes:
complete restoration to health
means SO much to me that for the sake
of other suffering ONE 1 am willing
to make my troubles public.
"For twelve years l had been suffer
ing with the worst forms of female ills.
During that time l had eleven different
physicians without help. No tongue
can tell what | suffered, and at times 1
could hardly walk. About two years
ago | wrote Mrs Pipkham for advice
| followed it, and can truly say that
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice re-
stored health and strength. 1t is
worth mountains of gold to suffering
women"
What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound did for Mrs. Muff,
it will do for other suffering women

THE QUESTION IN IDAHO.

Harry Orchard is & fatalist. He has
so married his life that to him it ma
tiers little when it is ended. He knows
that he committed many crimes, sen.
many men to death unwarned; he sees
no reason why he should not suffer the
penalty the law demands. Freedom is
out Of the question. His release, ne
we'll knows, would be only a signal for
his life to be taken. He has made what
expiration he can in all other ways than
by surrendering a life hat holds little
for the future. AS well be dead and
end it, is his point of view.
That the man told a straight story
that he told nothing but the truth AMI
that he was prompted by no othef
thought than that it was his duty TO
do so, did not need the remarkable
statement that comes at this late date
from the judge who tried the men
Orchard accused of hiring him to COM
init murders. As Judge Wood says,
only those who were implicated in the
plot can profess to believe otherwise
than that the confessed murderer was
telling the truth and telling it unre-
servedly without hope of reward.
Since his plea of guilt was entered this
tendency on the part of those who were
interested in making Orchard appear
a perjured witness has been decided
ly apparent. Those who stood nea-
to the door of the conspirators will
never be found admitting that there
a conspiracy. To the end of the
chapter they must appear to discredit
Orchard in order to save their own
faces. To those whose minds were
open to the truth conviction came be-
fore Orchard had made his full comics
sion or the attorneys for Haywood be-
gan their remarkable pleas.
To Orchard, or to the public at large
so far as Orchard is individually con
cerned, it will make small difference
whether the plea of Judge Wood thai
mercy be melted the defendant is or u
not heard by the Idaho board of par
dons. We make too much of the mere
matter of living. Death is no robbery
Of q life that can be lived 10 no good
end. 1t is not to consider Orchard
