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 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 E. Pinkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
of the world a remedy for their Pc
culiar ills,wmore potent and effica-
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.
'sFor 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 I suffered, and at times
could hardly walk. About two years
ago wrote Mrs. Pinkham for advice.
I followed it, and can truly say that
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice re-
stored health and strength. It is
worth mountains of gold to suffering
women
What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound did for Mrs. Muff,
it will do for other suffering women.

Moment.
Birmingham, Ala.-Reports re-

moment. Deputies at the Arcadia
Mines, in the western part of the
county, discovered a plot to blow up
theentire quarters of the place and
shoot down the deputies and saldiers

THE HOUSE IN WINTER

During cold weather, when houses
must necessarily,be kept closed most
of the time. extra precautions should
be taken to keep the air pure
No matter how low the temperature.
the windows and doors on the first
floor should he opened for at least flf
teen minutes the first thing in tho
morning. n the cook or maid be in.
structed to do this as soon as she arises
the house will be nicely warmed again
by the time the family Is down.
After each meal there should be an
other thorough airing of the lower
floor. No matter how perfect the sys-
tom Of ventilation. it is impossible to
prevent cooking odors. This airing is
doubly necessary should there ns
smokers in the family.
Each bedroom should have the win
dows flung open until after break
fast II this is not done for the sake
of daintiness, it should never be for
gotten in the interest Of health.
In a family sitting room there should
be some arrangements made by which
there is a constant change of air with.
out draft. II II can be managed in
no other way the window should he
raised a few inches and a screen placeo
IN front of il.
There is no surer sign Of bad house
keeping than a house which has an
odor OF any kind and the custom OF
some women to burn scented waters in
their rooms IN lieu Of fresh air is moi
to be copied.

CURRENT COMMENT.


The Burlingto Free Press hears that
the presence of Mr. Hartman in Yer
mont has revived the talk of cross.
state railroad The facts about the prob.
lem OF a railroad from Montpelier to
Rutland are that there are plenty OF
plausible routes. from the short and
mountainous pitch from Woodstock to
the long, though comparatively easy
route from Montpelier via Middlesex,
Moretown, Waitsfeld, Rochester, Stock.
bridge and Mendon. The latter route
has also been united with the White
River Valley railroad from Bethel 10
Stockbridge as possible outlet by way
or the Central Vermont and Bethel. Tne
whole thing hinges on the problem of
finance, Lack of population, difficult and
costly construction and lack OF natural
resources to form an expectation of
growth are what makes capital reluctant
about building a cross state railroad.
And Mr.. Hartman is not, perhaps, any
more likely than anyone else TO invest
money in railroad that likely. like
the st. Johnsbury and Lake Cnamplain
and White River Valley roads, to show a
