LYDIA e. FlNKHHM

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 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 L. Pinkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
of the world a remedy for their Pc
culiar ills. more potent and effica-
cious than any combination of drugs.
lydia +. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for woman's ills.
Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 5l5 NC. ST.,
Louisiana, Mo-, writes:
complete restoration 10 nchltl
means so much to me that for the sake
Of other suffering women I 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 had eleven differen,
physicians without help. No tongue
can tell what suffered, and at times
could hardly walk. About two yeare
AGO l wrote Mrs. Pinkham for advice
I followed it, and con truly say that

a successor to the late Bishop Cole
man Of Delaware, Rev. G. Valerie Gill
reath of St. Peters Church, Smyrna,

made in the course of some remarks
which Mr.. Gilreath made in espousing
the candidacy of Bishop Partridge Of
Toxic, Japan and to show the con-
vention that there were no personal
motives in wanting him elected, he said
that as soon as a Bishop Of Delaware
was elected, he intended resignlng from
St Peters Church, Smyrna
A number of St. Peters vestrymen
were present to whom the announce
ment came as a surprise, IL being the
first intimation TO them that the rec
tor intended relinquishing his work
in this parish. Rev Gilreath has been
in Smyrna seven years. succeeding
Rector Thomas. Just what Mr. Gil
reath's plans for the future are, he
has not announced, but It is expected

ing a bishop.

iect Of his visit known to Francis NJ

the officials that he could not under
stand why they could not give any in
formation concerning the $50 100000
estate which the original Baron Carl
Springer gave to the vestry Of Old
Swedes Church here one hundred years
ago to be held In trust by them for
that period. Mr.. Springer seemed to
be Of the opinion that someone In Will

heirs from recovering the estate The
officials assured Mr.. Springer, however,
that nobody here had any such desire.

CLEVER FISHERMEN.
Odd Methods Of the Indians on the
Sault Ste. Marie.

odd Methods Of the Indians on the
Sault Ste. Marie.
On the sault Ste. Marie the Indians
have novel method Of catching white
fish. Two Indians 20 with a canoe into
the rapids. One occupies the bow and
one the stern. The latter uses a pad
die to keep the boats head upstream.
The former has alpole with which to
steady the boat standing upright in
his place.
They take with them a dipnet four
feet in diameter attached 10 a pole or
handle fifteen feet long. This is placed
ready TO the hand Of the Indian In the
bow. The fishing Is done at the foot
Of the rapids, where the water boils
and tumbles furiously.-o s,ef ,,dn
With his pole the Indian in the bow
holds the canoe or lets It float steadily
sidewise, now up a little perhaps and
then down, but always under perfect
control. The Indian gazes constantly
into the water. which Is often ten feet
deep where they are fishing and the
depths Of which no white man was
ever yet able to school his eye to pene-
trste.
Suddenly he seizes the net by the
handle with one hand. still manipulate
ing the boat with the other and plunges
the net into the water. perhaps ten feet
away, thrusting Il TO the bottom. Then
he gives Il a peculiar twist. draws II
up and turns out into the boat often
as many as half a dozen whitensh
weighing from three to FIVE pounds.
These indian fishermen are unerring
in casting their nets, and It is not an
uncommon thing for them to capture
300 whitehsh in a day. How they are
able TO see the fish in the bottom Of
the rapids is mystery no one has yet
been able 10 fathom.-Pearson's Week

II is curious how many people are in

the case Of carrying a heavy bag or

know the annoying way in which 1t
knocks against our legs and the almost
intolerable ache in the arm that is sup
porting the burden. Few people are
