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

Women who are well often ask care
the letters which the Lydia E. Pinkham
Medicine Co. are continually publishing,
genuine?T Are they truthful ? "
why do women write such letters ! p"
In answer we say that never have we
published a 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 1t.
The reason that thousands Of women
from all parts of the country write such
grateful letters to the Lydia E. Pink
ham Medicine Co. is that Lydia E Pink
hams 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

PARIS, Aug. 91,-Ttalian troops
began to dlsembark at SalonikI Sum
day. says a Havas despatch from that
point.
On leaving their ships, the despatch
says, the Italians passed through sa-
lonIki to camp, preceded by military
bands of the Allies and cheered by
the populace.
Active participation by Italian
troops in the Saloniki campaign
would mean the existence of a state
OF war between Germany and Italy.
Germany is directing the operations
against the Allies on this front and
as the official German reports show
has forces there. Some Austrian
troops also probably are employed
and possibly Turks, but the major
portion OF the army is made up Of
Bulgarlans. Recent reports have In
dlcated the withdrawal of Austrian
troops from the Balkans for use on
the Russian and Italian fronts.
AS the Entente Allies are believed
to have force Of some 100000 Brit
ish, French and Serbian troops on the
salonlki front the sending Of re-en-
forcements at this time just after the
opening Of hostllltIes on a large scale
would indicate that the Allies have
embarked on a campaign Of extensive
proportions.

Railroad Officials Are Said to
Be Considering a Proposal
Counter to Wilson's,
BIG THINGS ARE. EXPECTED.
Brotherhood Representatives
Hold a Brief Meet But They
Transact No Business.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 21-Presi-
dent Wilson towards noon sent word
to the railway presidents who are
now here asking them to call on him
at the White House at $3.50 o'clock
Monday afternoon. They agreed TO
confer with the president but it was
said they would make no statement
unless he requested it.
The railroad presidents and their
committee OF managers worked
steadily to devise some means Of
averting the threatened strike, which
would, in the main, accept President
Wilson's plan but at the same time
preserve the principle of arbitration.
They declared they were united
against the presidents plan as II
stands and hope to agree on some
form of counter proposal.
The mems meeting decided that
brotherhood members should call on
senator's and representatives from
their own states and acquaint them
with the details of the mems side OF
the situation. President Carter OF
the engineers was the only official
who attended the session.
Some of the incoming railway
president were more optimistic about
the situation than those already
here. One of the western men de
cared that if his road alone were in
yolved he unquestionably would re-
sst the demands of the men to the
last but he considers the question a
national one and for that reason was
sure some common ground would be
found to base a settlement.
