This is the age Of substitution, and
women who want a cure should insist
upon Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound just as this woman did, and
not accept something else on which the
druggist can make a little more profit.
Women who are passing through this
critical period or who are suffering
from any Of those distressing ills pc
culiar to their sex should not lose sight
of the fact that for thirty years Lydia

fast ball and a slow curve are the success
full pitchers best assets
Lovers of baseball have often asked me
how l deal with a batsman whom l have
never faced and about whose batting ability
know nothing. Every seasoned pitcher
has been called on often enough to meet
batters he never saw before, and in such
pinches he must rely largely on luck.
When l am facing new batsman for the
first time, pay particular attention to two
things-the position he assumes at the plate
and the way he holds his bat If, for in
stance, he holds his bat well up toward the
middle there isn't muc ch use of sending him
speed. Batters of this type are always ready
for speed and they can meet the fastest
ball man ever threw. A low curve on
the inside will do for a starter, and if
such batter goes after 1t and fails to
- connect you have his number"
