of them fired at the officers, then all ran.
Rhodes was the only one placed under
arrest at that time. Later the others
were picked up, pending investigation.

al know of so many cases where wo-
men have been cured by Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound that can
say to every suffering woman if that
medicine does not help her, there is
nothing that will. Mrs. JANETzKI,
1908 Arch St., Chicago, Ill.
This is the age of substitution, and
women who want cure should insist
upon Lydia Z. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound just as this woman did, and
not accept something else on which the
druggist can make 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
Z. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
which is made from roots and herbs,
has been the standard remedy for fe-
male ills. In almost every community
you will find women who have been
restored to health by Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound.
