 St. Louis, Mo. -"I was bothered terribly with a female weakness and had backache, bearing down pains and pains in lower parts. I began taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound regularly and used the Sanative Wash and now have no more troubles that way" Mrs. AL. HERzoG, 5722 Prescott Ave, St. Louis, Mo.
 Because your case is a difficult one, doctors having done you no good, do not continue to suffer without giving Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound trial. It surely has cured many cases of female ills, such as in- illumination, alteration, displacements, fbroid tumors, irregularities, periodic pains, backache, that bearing-down feeling, indigestion, dizziness, and ner- vous prostration. It costs but trifie to try it, and the result is worth mil lions to many suffering women.

Tn connection with New Haven and Bridgeport criticisms of trolley service, the Hartford Times says:
 Corporations which receive large ex- elusive privileges on the ground that they are to serve the public owe the kind and degree of service implied in the grant of special privileges. They are constantly tempted to make more money for themselves by economizing in the service and as long as human nature remains what it is the public needs an authorized agent with power to protect it's rights. Such an agent must have authority if it is to be worth it's name, but the grant of power was the one thing to which the corpo- rations were most strenuOusly opposed This is better understood now than it was during the last session, and if voters all over the State will pin pros pective members of the next Legisla-

Beef packers attribute the high prices of meats to the high price of corn, and predict that prices will go still higher. They seem very indifferent to the spreading boycott of their products, probably because of their control of eold-storage houses and refrigerator car lines, which enables them to hold their products an indefinite period.

First news of the Kentucky's distress

the steamship Alamo, (Which is equipped
with United Wireless), responded to the
Kentucky's call for help, informing Cap

Alamo arrived two hours before the Ken
tuck sank.
