We know of no other medicine which has been so sue
CessM in relieving the suffering of women, or secured so
many genuine testimonials, as has Lydia. E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.
In almost every community you will find women who
have been restored to health by Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable~ Compound. Almost every woman you meet has
either beenebenehted by il, or knows some one who has.
In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn, Mass, are files con-
tanning over one million one hundred thousand letters from
women seeking health, in which many openly state over
their own signatures that they have regained their health by
taking Lydia E.. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has saved
many women from surgical operations.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is made ex-
ciuslvely from roots and herbs, and is perfectly harmless.
The reason why it is so successful is because it contains
ingredients which act directly upon the female organism,
restoring it to healthy and normal activity.
Thousands of unsolicited and genuine testimonials such
as the following prove the efficiency of this simple remedy.
Minneapolis, Minn.:-"I was a great sufferer from female
EEOuOIes which caused a weakness and broken down condition
" IN system. l. read SO much of what Lydia Il, P1nkham1S

The dew is condensed out of the air
in contact with surfaces below a GER
tain temperature. At night the sur
face of the earth and all things on
it, and especially the smooth surfaces
of vegetable productions, are con-
stantly being cooled by radiating. II
the sky is covered with clouds, the
radiation sent back from the clouds
nearly supplies an equivalent for the
heat thus parted with, but If the sky
be clear, no equivalent is supplied,
and the surface of the earth and
things growing on it become cooler
than the atmosphere. If the night
also be calm, the small portion of air
contiguous to any of these surfaces
will become cooled below the So
called dew point, and its moisture de-
posted on the surface in the form
Of dew.

Prince de Besrn has lost bis suit
in Baltimore against bis father.in-lsw,
Ross R. Winsns, and F. o. Lstrobe,
trustees, to obtsin absolute possession OF
his wife's estate OF 5000, 900. The bill
was dismissed on the grounds that no
ulterior motives bad been proven to the
action taken By the trustees and that as
the prince was satisfied st tie time the
present arrangement was made aud en-
tered no demurrer, this was sufficient TO
prevent him from undoing that arrange
ment. 1t is likely that the case will be
taken to the Court OF Appeals.
