OPEN DEALING IN PAINT.

Buying paint used to be like The
proverbial buying OF a pig In o
poke" Mixtures in which chalk.
ground rock. ETC.. predominated were
marked and cold as Pure White
Lead" the deception not being ap-
parent until the paint and the paint
Ing were paid for. This deception n
still practiced, but We have learned TO
expose II easily.
National Lead Company, the larg-
est makers OF g.nuine Pure White
Lead, realizing the injustice that was
being done to both property owners
and honest paint manufacturers, set
about to make paint buying safe.
They first adopted a trade mark, the
now famous "Dutch-Boy Painter" and
put this trademark. as a guaranty Of
purity, on every package Of their
White Lead. They then set about
familiarizing the public with the
blow-pipe test by which the purity
and genuineness Of White Lead may
be determined. and furnished q blow
pipe free to every one who would
write them for II. This action was in
itself guaranty Of the purity Of Ma
tional Lead Company's White Lead.
AS the result Of this open dealing
the paint buyer to-day has only him
self to blame II he is dcfrauded. For

LYDIA e. PINKHAM

Nature and a woman's work COM
bined have produced the grandest
remedy for woman's ills that tho
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 ana
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 q remedy for their Pc
culiar ills, more potent and efiica-
cious thanany combination OF drugs.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for woman's Ills.
Mrs. Bertha Muff, Of 51b NC. St.
Louisiana, Mo-, writes:
complete restoration to health
means 90 much to me that for the sake
of other suffering women l am willing
TO make my troubles public
oFor twelve years ! had been surfer
ing with the worst forms Of female Ills.
During that time had eleven different
physicians without help. No tongue

Causes of Poverty.

Some people are poor because their
ideas are larger than their purses.
They think the world owes them a
living. They do not keep account OF
their expenditures. They try to do
what others expect OF them. not what
they can afford. The parents are eco
nomical, but the children have ex'
travagant ideas. They prefer to incur
debts rather than to do work which
they consider beneath them. They risk
all their eggs in one basket when they
are not in a position to watch or con-
troll 1t. They think IL will be time
enough to begin to save for a rainy
day when the rainy day comes. The
only thing, declares the New York
Herald, the daughters accomplish is
to develop fondness for smart clothes
and expensive jewelry. They do not
realize that one expensive habit may
introduce them to a whole family OF
extravagant habits. On a moderate
income, they try TO compete In appear
ance with wealthy neighbor. They
believe they have not been able to
make much In the business they I'M
derstand best, but have thought that
they could make fortune by invest
ing in something they know nothing
about.

WOMEN IN THE STOCK MARKET.
Wall Street Brokers Have Private
Rooms for Fair Patrons.

The number of women speculators
is amazingly Iargc--nluch larger than
even the ordinary Wall street habitue
would imagine. 1t is not commonly
known, but /! il fact that many
brokerage houses maintain private
ro"ms for their women customers,
with more often than not, private en-.
traces. There arc several reasons
for this. One is that many women
VINO speculate do so secretly, without
the knowledge OF their family, their
relaflVes or their friends. On this az.
count they desire privacy, desire to
move and have their Wall street be-
ing unknown. Another reason is that
the broker himself desires 1t, princi-
paliy, be 1t confessed, because he is
anxious that if there be any Scenes"
they shall be private ones, FAR from
the maddening crowds ignoble strife"
end sight. For truth compels the
statement that women are poorer los.
ers than men. 1t is the testimony Of
conservative brokers that a woman
ga1bler Is much more of gambler
than man-much more; that is. in
absorbing tenaciousness and almost
vindictiveness. She seems TO be car.
r1ed out of and beyond herself to a de.
groe that becomes uncomrortably dis.
quicting when she loses. Even when
sne IS winner, and, as | have said.
the proportion Of winners to losers
among women Is about one to twenty,
tnere seems to be in her satisfaction
