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

Women who are we'll often ask care
the letters which the Lydia E. Pinkham
Medicine Co. are continually publishing,
genuine?" "Are they truthful 2"
"Why do women write such letters?"
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 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
ham s Vegetable Compound has brought
health and happiness into their lives,
once burdened with pain and suffering.
1t has relieved women from some of
theworst forms of female ills, from dis
placements, Inflammation, liberation,
irregularities, nervousness, weakness,
stomach troubles and from the blues.
It is impossible for any woman who
is well and who GSS@0A
has never suffered NV [aSSNNip
to realize how these M - SSSA\M
poor, suffering wo- ~@Np
men feel when re- " SRlI

EXPRESSED BY DEMOCRATS

New York, Oct. 19-The Demo-
Gratis fairly exuded optimism here to-
day from every pore. President Will
son was here for short stay, on his
way west and received a fine dem on
stration at the Grand Central station
which his managers insisted had not
been planted" Many trainmen
joined in the demonstration and
cheered for Wilson and the eight
hour law. The President remarked
to some Of the trailmen that he was
very glad to observe that "some ef-
forts did not go unrewarded."
Chairman Mccormick, just from
the west, assured the President that
the west wa on fire with Wilson sen,
timent and that the Republicans
would never be able to stop the con
/ iagration The Democratic chair
man likewise assured the Presiden
and party that neither Ohio nor IL

Berlin, October 19.-Dr. Sicgfried

following statement for the Intcrna-

"Curiously enough, up to the pre-

formation regarding the activities of

British-colored Reuter- bulletins.
1T is well to reiterate that the
activities Of our U-boats in the vicin-
ity Of American waters is being car
ried on strictly within the limits es-
tablished for cruiser warfare.
"You may rest assured, however,
that the German nation and it's Par
lament are firm in their determina-
ton that U-boat warfare within the
limits prescribed for cruisers, wheth-
er in the vicinity of Norwegian or
American waters, must go on reSO-
lutely and unfalteringly.'

ARBOR DAY is ONLY
THREE WEEKS OFF

Arbor Day is only three weeks off,
as it comes November 3rd this year.
A special effort has been made to
have the day appropriately celebrat-
ed all over the State and it is hoped
that all the schools will observe it in
some way A new "Arbor and Bird
Day Manual was prepared by the
State Geological and Economic Sur
vey at the special request Of the Su-
perintendent Of Public Instruction,
and this was ready for the printer the
| beginning of August. For some un-
accountable reason the printing Of
this manual has been delayed to such
! extent that it hardly seems possible
. have it properly distributed be-
. ore Arbor Day. This is great mis-
J fortune, as the County Superinten-
j tents Of Public Instruction through
| out the State made an almost unani-
nous demand that these books be dis
tiibuted this year earlier than was
done last year so that the teachers
would have plenty Of time to teach
the children their exercises. Instead
Of being earlier, the manual will be
much later, too late TO be Of any use
in preparing Arbor Day observances
It will now be necessary for the
teachers who are organizing Arbo1
Day exercises to use again the Man
ual for 1915. If additional copies
Of this are needed, they can no doubt
be secured by applying to the County
Superintendent OF to the State Su
ocrirtendent of Public instruction
