In every community you will find
women who have been restored to

one you meet has either been bene-
flied by it, or has friends who have.
In the Pinkham Laboratory at

lion one hundred thousand letters
from women seeking health, and
here are the letters in which they
openly state over their own sigma
lures that they were cured by Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound. has saved many women
from surgical operations.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is made from roots and
herbs, without drugs, and is whole
some and harmless.
The reason why Lydia Z. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound is so
successful is because it contains in
gradients which act directly upon
the feminine organism, restoring it
to healthy normal condition
Women who are suffering from
those distressing ills peculiar to their
sex should not lose sight of these
facts or doubt the ability Of Lydia

Shipping Timber 5000 Miles

WASHINGTON, d. c., March 2. An
Australian corporation has Just recelv-
ed a concession from the RUSSIAN
Government to take out thirty milton
feet of tim Der a year from forest III
Siberia, nine hundred miles from Vlad-
ivostok, to be delivered in Melbourne,
Australia, approximately eight thou
sand miles away, and nearly three
times the distance from New York to
San Francisco.
1t is likely that no numbering oper-
alton of recent years more strongly
illustrates the pinch i'll the timber sup
ply in all parts of the world. In the
news of the concession. told IN all
American lumber journal, is the sugges-
ton of the difficulty that all countries
may have to encounter in getting the
wood which they need i'll the future.
Every year timber cruisers are going
further and further atield and cutting
trees which, in former times OF album
dance, they passed because OF the IN
accessibility of the forest.
In taking out the Siberian timber
the Melbourne lumbermen Will have
to ship the entire years cut IN July,
August, September and October. foI
during the remainder OF the year there
is no open water at the point of ship
ment.
What makes this unusual feature OF
Transporting bulky logs 5000 miles
quite feasible is that such unmanutac-
tured stock is admitted free, while
there is a heavy duty on all manutac-
tured wood brought INTO Australia, the
duty on lumber, for instance, beng
nearly S. 90 a thousand board feet. AT
Melbourne, new mill is being erected
to manufacture these logs into dressed
stock, such as flooring, ceiling and othel
products, as well as into lumber.
These Siberian operations differ from
the numbering methods iii the United
States, in that in this country 1t IS pos
sible and customary to have new mills
conveniently near the place OF produc-
ton, though, with the continually de-
creasing supply, the larger mills often
find it profitable to haul their timber by
trans and railroads many miles away
from their saws. Forest experts IN
this country say that the hope OF the
United States for d steady supply OF
timber lies in the application OF forestry
to all timberlands, private and publlc,
and the careful study of the economical
and better utilization of product. Even
so, a severe shortage i'll twenty to
twenty-five years must be expected.

TEACHING BABY TO WALK.
BY DIR. MAUDF KENT.
Editor Medical Department, american
Lnus ok apnpr -

HouSekeeper.
Never encourage baby to try to walk il
he seems unwilling to learn. The sockets
of the Joints are very shallow in tiny chill.
dren and the bones so feebly connected that
they are easily dislocated. Besides which,
bowed legs are much easier to avoid than 10
cure, and standing before the legs are
strong enough to bear the weight OF the
body may result i'll permanent deformity,
that will cause a constant regret.
About the ninth or tenth month the first
attempt usually is made to place the child
on it's feet At the eleventh or twelfth
month the child will stand with some as
sstance The first attempts at walking are
average age at which children walk alone is
about the fifteenth or sixteenth month
Much depends upon the surroundings. A
great difference is seen in different families
in regard to time of walking. Previous
sickness may retard walking, or, most COM
iuUn of all, the condition OF the bones
known as ricketts,. In some instances spinal
disease may be the cause.
Massage of the hips and legs for ten min
utes after the morning bath, is the best ex-
ternal treatment; pour teaSpOOnful OF
olive oil into the palm of the hand and do
not massage very rapidly or vigorously.
The even, firm pressure is the best motion
in case of this sort, and combines sooth
ing effect aud the desired stimulation OF
the circulation.
Twice day give half teaspoonful of
Scott'S Emulsion. The combination of the
oil and hypophosphites of lime and soda
will assist the other food to build bone
tissue rapidly, and is equally necessary
where the spinal nerves are diseased.

The bobbing boats, the ghosts that Tilt

The deep sea surge, West Indian gales,

A dandy, dancing pungy, borne

Beside the Light street piers of CLEAN!
Oh, lead me there, and let me stay
Beside the wharves of yesterday,

The harbor gleams-just now afar,

From seas of calm and seas of gale
A phantom hull, ghostly sail,
A fine old ship on seas of yOre
