LYDIA E. PINKHAM

Nature and woman's work COM
bined have produced the grandest
remedy for woman's ills that the
world has ever known.
In the good 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
culiar ills, more potent and etfica-
cious than any combination of drugs.
Lydia E. 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 women am willing
to make my troubles public.
"For twelve years / had been suffer-
ing with the worst forms of female ills.
During that time had eleven different
physicians without help. No tongue
can tell what suffered, and at times
could hardly walk. About two years
ago wrote Mrs. Pinkham for advice.
1 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. Pinlkham's Vege-
table Compound did for Mrs. Mutf,
it will do for other suffering women.

A Sermon Of the Curb.

A game Of tag was in full swing
among half dozen little children in
q tenement block east Of Second ave-
nue.. Two of the youngsters were girls
Of about seven. Three were sturdy
boys of about the same age. 1t was a
remarkable game of tag-remarkable
because Of the remaining participant.
This, too, was boy, but each leg
from the knee down was incased in
iron bands, and he was absolutely de-
pendent upon pair of crutches for
locomotion.
No player was more eager than the
little cripple, and not only did he sue
coed frequently in tagging sturdy
player, but it was surprising to note
how often he eluded pursuit when an
other was lit"
well, you see," said one of the
little girls in explanation, IF we didn't
do that way he couldn't have any
fun."-NeW York Globe.

1t is pity that young men in
their prime cannot meet at a cele-
bration or picnic without disgrac-

influence Of Intoxicating drink, dis
grazing not only themselves but
also casting reflections on the COM
munity.
We feel thankful to the Kandiyo-
hi county Republicans for their re-
solution and respect given the tenn
perance question; but what did it
amount to at the Republican state
convention in St. Paul? One Of
the speakers at the celebration here
referred to some people tearing
down what others try to build up.
We take it for granted that the
speaker alluded to the Republican
state convention at St. Paul, altho
he is strong republican. For the
last IS years the Republicans have
been trying to tear down what the
temperance forces and Prohibition
lists and lovers and protectors of
homes, churches and communities
have tried to build up. How long
will that last? How long?

had taken the Pacific express, at Phil

to his berth. Just before he fell asleep
he happened to remember that he had
forgotten something, so he put his
head out between the curtains and
called, "Portah, portah!" The porter
came. What is it, sir?" he said.
