LYDIA (. PINKHANd

Nature and a wOmau's work com
bined have produced the graude~t
remedy for WOmaus Ills that the
world has ever known.
Ia the good old-fasLi0ued days of
our graudmothrrs they relied upon
tie 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 allmeut. and cure
diseases that hatfie the most skilled
physicians who have spent years IN
the study of drugs.
From the roots and herbs Of the
field Lydia h. Pnkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
of the world a remedy for their pc
cullar ills, more potent and eftica-
clous than any combination otdrugS.
Lydia +. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for woman's ills.
Mrs. Bertha Muff. of 5I5 Nc. St.
Louisiana, Mo, writes:

Of other suffering women / am willing

that the whole trouble lies in the

after eating or whenever your food
seems to nauseate take Kodol Ii

WELSH TIN.
Manufacturers in Wales More Pros
porous Than Ever Before.

The Welsh tinplate industry is now
reported to be prosperous beyond
record The output for 1907 is expect
ed to exceed 100000 tons.
Prophecies of ruin to the Welsh
manufacturers of tinplate had quite as
general acceptance ten years ago, al
ter the American tinplatc industry had
demonstrated its ability to care for the
greater part of the domestic demand,
as was accorded earlier to predictions
of the failure Of the American attempt
to become independent of Wales.
A steadily expanding world demand
for tin and terne plates has been
gradually counteracting the pessimism
that had taken possession OF the W eiSn
trade, and today there is more nope
full view of the future than has ever
been taken.
Whereas before the establishment of
American tinplate manufacture TINS
country took much more of the Welsh
product than all other countries COM
bined, the United States today receives
less than one-seventh of the exports
from Wales, though still the largest
single customer. For the fiscal year
ended June ~ our imports OIL III anu
terne plates were $3.50 gross tons, as
compared with 53.937 tons in the pre-
vious year. Meanwhile our production
is at the rate of about $4,000 gross tons
a year.
The present buoyant condition of the
industry appears to be due almost
wholly to the general wave of pros
perity that has brought enlargement Of
nearly all lines of trade. Russian de-
nland expanded as the disorders in the
Baku district quieted down.
Japan has been a heavy buyer also
