No other medicine for woman's ills

feline we know of has such record
of cures Of female ills as has Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
For more than 30 years it has been
curing female complaints such as
Inflammation. liberation, local weak
nesses, fibroid tumors, irregularities,
periodic pains, backache, indigestion
and nervous prostration, and it is
unequalled for carrying women safely
through the period of change of life.
It costs but little to try Lydia E.

The "pare food law" is designed by the
Government to protect the public from in
furious ingredients in both foods and drugs.
1t is beneficial both to the public and to the
conscientious manufacturer. Ely's Cream
Balm, successful remedy for cold In the
head, nasal cstarrh, hay fever, etc., containing
no Injurious drugs, meets fully the require
ments Of the new law, and that fact ia promi-
nentiy stated on every package. It contains
none OF the injurious drugs which are re-
quired by the law to be mentioned on the
label. Hence you can use it safely.

Some Facts About Hypnotism.

''No competent exponent of hypnotism
to-day believes that a person is inevitably
Obliged to execute all hypnotic commands
given him" says H. Arlington Bruce in
the Woman's Home Companion. Sand
while some still cling to the idea that
hypnotic crimes are possible, the consen-
sus Of scientific opinion is that no person
who would not in his normal state per-
petrate the crime suggested, would per-
petrate if it hypnotized.
ut is equally certain, though, that
under hypnotic influence people are La
BILE to accuse themselves Of crimes they
have not committed. This is q real
danger, which ought to be carefully
guarded against in courts Of justice.
ssThere is reason to believe that many
police confessions extorted from &C.
cused persons by the processes Of the So
called third degree and afterward found
to be untrue are made in . hypnotic state.
The persistent questioning Of the prisoner
by the police, their pitiIess insistence
that he is guilty and knows he is guilty,
may develop in him that peculiar hysteri- :
cal condition in which, ~ has already
been said, he may become spontaneously
hypnotized by an unexpected noise or the
sudden flashing Of light"
