LYDIA e. PiNKHAM

No other medicine for Woman's
Ills In the world has received such
widespread and unqualified en-
dorsement as has Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound, made
from native roots and herbs.
No other medicine has such q
record of success for woman's dis
eases, OF such hosts of grateful
friends as has Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound
For more than 80 years it has been
the standard remedy for feminine
ills, Inflammation, liberation, and
consequent Spinal Weakness.
It has relieved more cases of Back
ache and Local Weaknesses than
any other one remedy. 1t dissolves
and expels tumors In an early stage
of development. -.---.-.
Irregularities and periodic pains,
Weakness of the Stomach, Indiges-
ton, Bloating, Nervous Prostitution,
Headache, General Debility, quickly
yield to It; also deranged organs,
causing pain, dragging sensations
and backache. Under all circum-
stances it acts in harmony with the
female system
It removes that wearing feeling,
extreme lassitude, don't care "and
want to be left alone" feeling,
excitability, irritability, nervousness,
dizziness, faintness, sleeplessness,
fiatulency, melancholy orthe blues"
These are indications of Feminine
disorders, which this medicine over
comes as well as slight arrangement
of the Kidneys of either sex.
Women who are sick and want to
get well should refuse to accept any
substitute for Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.

Ladd, the pure food commissioner,
who has been making exhaustive ex-
periments in milling wheat. states
that the amount of -four produced
from durum is ~ per cent greater
than from fife or blue stem. although
the amount of patent flour is little
less from durum. There was milled
in the United States last year 90
100000 bushels of durum wheat. and
as there is no durum flour advertised,
we draw the conclusion that this

in order to cheaper the cost of produc-
ton and make larger margin of

THE CALL OF THE SOIL.
DAYS OF FINANCIAL STRESS
MAKE FARM LANDS LOOK
RICH.

A star contributor Of southern
newspaper has taken up the question
Of the return to the farm Of many who
had forsaken 1t for the glitter of the
city. He says: ut is a we'll known
fact that the history of this Govern.
ment shows that those men who have
been most successful in life and who
tave left their impress upon its peo-
pie and its institutions as statesmen,
soldiers, financiers-have as rule
been those whose youth was spent on
the farm, and it is to such as these
that there comes with overmastering
power THE CALL OF THE SOIL.
More especially does it come with re.
doubled responsiveness, greater pow.
er and sweeter pleading to the man OF
affairs when the clouds of financial
unrest begin to darken the sky; when
the cry of panic causes people to lose
their wits and act like stampeded cat
tie; when with reason or without
veason there arises before him tho
specter of ruin, grinning in his face
and waving its gaunt arms in threat.
ening gesticulation.
The pftiable state into which some
men were brought by the recent finan.
cial furry, which happily is now
passed, suggests these reflections.
Some were ruined and a very few be.
came insane because Of their losses.
Two or three took their own lives.
1t is when such times come that the
statesman, the great financier, and
the man of affairs becomes tired OF
the struggle. He lays down his pen,
turns from his desk and listens to
the CALL OF THE SOIL.
There are hundreds of cases
throughout the United States of those
Who have money in the banks and are
