too highly. Every woman should take

Swarthmore, Pa.
Baltimore, Md. My troubles began
with the loss of child, and 1 had hem
orrhages for four months. The doctors
said an operation was necessary, but
dreaded it and decided to try Lydia E.
Pinkhan's Vegetable Compound. The
medicine has made me a we'll woman and
I feel strong and do my own work. -
Mrs. J. r. PICKING, 1860 Sargent St.,
Baltimore, Md.
Since we guarantee that all testimo.
mails which we publish are genuine, is it
not fair to suppose that if Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound has the vir-
tue to help these women it will help any
other woman who is suffering in like
manner?

of the alimony which he was to allow

"Heighow he sighed. when a man
gets to be forty-f1ve his troubles null
tiply.''. And he fell to thinking how
hardly fate used him.
AS he stepped into the street a
newsboy ran into him, yelling at the
top of his voice. He picked himself
up and thrust a paper under Mr..
Coggswell's nose.
Suicide of a millionairev' he yell
ed; and there, sure enough. was the
announcement, in big, black letter.
ing. Mr.. Coggswell bought copy,
and the next minute was staggering
back against the wall of the club.
The suicide was that of himself.
When he had recovered a little he
read as follows: ,..
"Mr. Charles Coggswell, president
of the United Realty and Union cor
poration, and a well-known figure on
the Street, shot himself in the temple
at half-past one o'clock this after
noon, in lodging house on the Bow
cry. Although he had dressed himself
in shabby clothes and destroyed all
evidences of his identity, Mr. Coggs-
wells features were too well known
for his death to remain long I'M
known. The body, which was iden-
titled by members of his family, and
his partners and business associates,
who were hastily summoned, was re-
moved at first to the morgue, but
now lies at his home, where the in
quest will be held this afternoon"
Coggswell knew the mana dou-
BILE of his, strikingly alike even to the
gait and gesture, who had once or
twice impudently demanded money
from him on the strength of the re-
semblance, until Mr.. CoggsweI had
threatened to have him arrested.
Then the fellow had disappeared-to

CLERKS BALE HOOKS END
PARCEL POST SHIPMENTS

! by parcels post from coast to
coast made a very pretty slogan for
local firm of luggage manufac-
turers, organized for the purpose of
selling exclusively through the mails.
But that was before Uncle Sans
mail clerks started to use balehooks
to handle the mail pouches with.
That put an end to the parcel post
part of the ''fiossie" slogan.
The customers found that their
luggage, when it arrived, was eithee
dented or punctured, and naturally
returned it to this city to be. re-
placed. So many of these damaged
suit cases and travelling bags were
returned in this condition that the,
president of the firm took some of
the punctured bags up to Postmas-
ter Frank j. Book.
The damage had been done in tran
sit. so the postmaster could do moth
ing, except investigate the matter.
Assistant Postmaster Cyphers ex-
planned that the small, heavy par
cells and the large, light ones were
often placed in the same pouch. thus
resulting in damage to the frazier
article.
II have known of cases where
pieces of machinery were shipped in
pouches with travelling bags and the
machinery was not damaged Bit"
he said. but the bags might have
suffered.
1.-THE same thing has happened tc
silk hats sent through the mail. A
silk hat and a f1atiron were shipped
in the same pouch and the iron was
not injured at all despite the fact
that the hat was somewhat the
worse for the experience"
Postmaster Book will bring the
matter of the damaged luggage to
the attention of the authorities in
Washington and will also use It as
further plea for the substitution of
hampers or trunks for the present
mail pouches for the parcels post
traffic.
The local postal authorities we're
somewhat surprised to learn of the
damage to the suit-cases, for they
are known as "Resisto" bags.

Heartbroken Because She Be-
lieved Her Sweetheart No
Longer Cared for Her.
Especial to the newark start

CAMDEN, N. j., June 9.-Believing
that her boy sweetheart had been de-
ceiving her and that he never really
loved her. Agnes Skjerseth, only 10
years old, hanged herself at the
home of her grandmother in Audi
bon. Camden county. She was found
hanging by a curtain cord suspended
from the stair railing at the attic
floor, her body dangling in the open
space of the stairs.
Mrs. Skjerseth, her grandmother.
collapsed after calling for help from
an open window land had to be given
medical attention when DR.. A. d.
Beam arrived The forlorn little girl
was beyond his aid.
Coroner Saunders found and made
public two notes written by the
child in her last heart broken mo-
ments of life which told the pathetic
story. One of the notes was adj
dressed to Frank Wells. 1t read:
las you did not show up last night
] thought you did not want me any
more now. l thought it was best for
me to die because | know you never
did care much for me. You can
] am dead. So may God bless you is
the curse of dying girl. They say
God is love, but he will punish you
some day. Good-by, forever. From
the girl who loved you"
The other note was addressed to
her grandmother. In this the girl
further barred her soul, writing with
firm, round hand:
Dear Grandma: I thought it was
best for me to, die because / would
never be any good. May God bless
you all for what you have done for
me. Please fulfill my dying wish.
Dig my grave wide and deep; place
marble slabs at head and feet; place
upon my breast a dove to show the
world l died for love. Please invite
my friends to see my last remains.
Farewell forever. From Agnes
Skjerseth.,
