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

Women who are we'll often ask care
Che letters which the Lydia E. Pinkham
Medicine Co. are continually publishing,
genuine?" care they truthful ? Z"
"Why do women write such letters?"
In answer we say that never have we
published q fictitious letter or lame.
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 Medicine Co. is that Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound has brought
health and happiness into their lives,
enceb urdened with pain and suffering.
It has relieved women from some Of
the worst forms of female ills, from dis
placements. Inflammation, liberation,
Irregularities, nervousness, weakness,
stomach troubles and from the blues.

The Natural Pride Of Those Who

To those who have built railroads
through and across the prairies or

empire of grain and cattle, horse and

east, must be awarded the privilege
of looking upon their work, and It's

the buffalo roamed and fed, are now

Farms-large and small-on which
machinery has chased the bugaboo of
laborious work of the farm, and max
ing farm life one of the most pleasant
and prosperous of occupations-are
being cultivated by men of the highest
stamp of manhood. Many of these
have inherited from their forebears
the physical strength and the high
type of manliness that was theirs In
the days when they hewed their homes
out of the virgin forest, and made
them what may be seen today, beau

1T was SO years ago when first

time there were less than 10000

AT that time all the flour, meat and

from the start. It waited patiently for
an hour to see him and cheered itself
hoarse in a three-minute demonstra-
ton when he appeared. Sixteen thou
sand heard him, 10000 were turned
away and 10000 more tried to get a
glimpse of him as he left his hotel for
the hall.

A man in the far end of the hall
shouted his answer over the heads Of
the crowd. "Yes," he cried. A dozen,
a score, fifty, echoed the word and the
hall was in turmoil. President Will
son smiled and held out his hand.
"Why, I believe" he said, as the
tumult decreased, "you could raise the

Wilson Tells Des Moines Audience He
Has Found Middle West for
Preparedness.

Des Moines, Iowa, Feb. 3..-'Do you
want the situation to be such that all
the President can do is to write mes
sages and utter words of protest?"
asked President Wilson here in ad-
vocating preparedness before the larg.
est audience Of his present trip. If
breaches Of international law, which
are in daily danger of occurring,
should touch the very honor Of the
United States do you wish to do moth
ing about 1t? Do you wish to have all
the world say that the flag of the
United States can be stained with i'm
Pun1ty? why, to ask the question is
to answer it. I know there is not a
man or woman within hearing of my
voice who would wish peace at the
expense Of the honor of the United
States"
There are actually men in America
who are preaching war, the President
declared. Men who want the United
States to have entangling alliances
abroad. He added that others go furth-
er than he, in advocating peace.
"They preach the doctrine of peace
at any price," he added, while men i'm
the audience called, never, never"
He said these men did not know the
circumstances Of the world.
The President declared he hoped If
this war had no other result, it would
create an international tribunal to set
tie questions which cause war. His
declaration that he had found the
people of the Middle West for prepar-
edness drew long applause.

That Country Must Have shIps
Enough.

swayed with tumult of cheering,
that tho United States should have
the greatest navy In the world.
Il believe the navy Of the United

said. 1.-THE greatest In the world"
The President declared that subma-
rine commanders abroad have instruc-
tions which for the most part conform
with international law but that the act
OF one commander might set the world
Rf1re, including America.
Upon the ocean there are hundreds
OF cargoes of American goods" he
said, cotton, grain and all the boun-
tiful supplies America is sending out
to the world, and any one of those
cargoes, any one of those ships, may
be the point Of contact that will bring
America into the war;"
Must Have Ships Enough.
America is not selfish in claiming
her rights. She is merely standing for
the rights of mankind while the life Of
mankind Is being extinguished in one
Of the greatest catastrophies in the
world.
There isn't a better service in the
world than the United States navy
But they must have ships enough and
we are going to give them ships
enough. We must get down to bust
ness and do it systematically.
For the first time during the tour
the President told of how one set of
belligerents was cut off from the
world. He said this kept the United
States from helping them as it would
like to. He made the statement in
trying to show that the United States
was really neutral.
