the family had resided at Manchester,
England, since his birth. He was
highly educated. speaking and writing
four languages, and a graduate Of two
or more noted colleges Of England. He
and his widowed mother were in BUSH
ness at Manchester but such was the
prejudice against anyone of German
name or parentage that their business
was ruined and for safety from physi-
cal violence they fled to~America. The
wiping out of cherished plans. the re-
sentiment showed to him by childhood
and boyhood friends proved on his

cutting his throat with a knife. He
was buried from the home of a rela-
tive Mr.. August Bale. in this city.

WHY WOMEN
WRITE LETTERS
To lydia E. Pinkham Medi-
cine Co.

Women who are we'll often ask "Are
the letters which the Lydia E. Pinkham
Medicine Co. are continually publishing,
genuine?" care they truthful !? "
"Why do women write such letters Z"
In answer we say that never have We
published fictitious letter or name.
Never, knowingly, have We published
an untruthful letter, or one without the
full and written consent OF the woman
who wrote it.
The reason that thousands Of women
from all parts of the country write such
grateful letters to the Lydia E. Pink

ham Vegetable Compound has brought
health and happiness into their lives,
once burdened with pain and suffering.
It has relieved women from some OF
the worst forms of female ills, from dis
placements, Inflammation, liberation,
