pound2a"" -. = "a "z
IF any woman who is suffering with any aiInnent peculiar
to her sex will ask her neighbors this question, she viii be
surprised at the result. There is hardly a community IN
this country where women cannot be found who have been
restored to health by this famous old remedy, made
exclusively from a2smple formula of roots and herbs.
During the past 80 years we have published thousands
of letters from these grateful women who have been cured
bysLydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and never
in all that time have we published a testimonial without
the writer's special permission. Never have we knowingly
published a testimonial that was not truthful and genuine.

Dog Saved Bow on Bobsled.

At South Norwalk, Conn, when lit
tie George Plunkett, nicknamed
Cluster" was abandoned on a rail
road crossing Tuesday afternoon. di-
rectly in the path of the Pittsfield
express, Irish, a neighbours big dog,
grabbed the rope of the sled in his
teeth and easily did what was i'm
possible for the strength of the chill
dreG. He pulled the sled and "Bus-
ter" from under the pilot of the loco
motive just in time. The train was
stepped, and when the crew ran back
they found the big dog affectionately
laping the tears from the lads
face. Irish is owned by John Davis,
while Cluster" is the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. James Plunkett of River street.
The passengers on the train, mostly
wealthy New York men, on their way
TO Lenox, made up a purse for the lad.

Great Progress in Storage BATTERIES

New York, Special.-Thomas A.
Edison, and. Frederick A. Whitridge,
Federal receivers for the Third Ave
nue. Railway, have had their heads
together, and Mr.. Edison has an
nounced that he had brought his
storage battery to such a stage of per-
lection that within two months he
would run an experimental storage
battery car over the Third avenue
surface lines in this city.
81 have made no changes in the
battery which I practically perfected
years ago." Edison said. "The ele-
ments are the same, nickel, with an
alkall reaction. However, I have
made those improvements that are
bound to follow steady experimental
ton, until now | am convinced that I
have a battery that is needed. l am
satisfied that l can put a car in ser
vice today that will run a whole day
without recharging, but there will be
no practical test for "a couple Of
months"
Edison expressed the opinion that
use of his battery would revolutionize
surface car traffic, construction and
investment. He asserts if his battery
does what he thinks it will do the
trolley line plant of the future will
consist merely of cars equipped with
his batteries, tracks without over
head or. underground wires of chan
mel rails for the transmission of cur
rent, and comparatively cheap sta
tons where the storage batteries may
be charged after they have exhausted
their stores of current. Profit-eating
power plants will be done away with
entirely if his ambition is realized.
There are many horsecar lines in New
York which also may be equipped
with the batteries if the tests are sue
cessful.

"a tragedy came near being en~

respondent. John Coombs, who was
saving birch, was startled by a noise,
and, looking up, he saw a bull moose
about fifty yards away and a COW was
leisurely approaching him. For
tunately, he had a pile of birch put
up four feet high. He seized his AK
and mounted the woodpile. The
moose came up within fifteen yards
of the pile, viewed the situation, and
then went slowly away. If he had not
had a woodrile to have mounted, no
one knows how the story would have
ended. "-Kelnebec Journal.
