WHY WOMEN

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,

"Why do women write such lettersf"
In answer we say that never have We
published q fictitious letter or name.
Never, knowingly, have we published
an untruthful letter, or one without tho
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 p. 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

MARKET REPORT

Kansas City Stock Yards, Novem-
ber %, 1916. Ten thousand cattle
came in, and as they all had to sell
to killers it looked like a lower mar
cher stock sold strong, beef steers
fully steady, the only kind showing
weakness being thin kinds of steers,
ordinarily taken by country buyers.
Hog receipts were $4,000, market 5 to
10 lower, sheep and lambs 5000, mar
ket strong to 10 higher.
Beef Cattle-Nothing prime was in-
cluded, best steers here stopping at
5000, yearlings at SO. 65. Lower
grades sold downwardS to Sc 30, the
receipts largely local stuff, as long
distance shipments were stopped or
diverted yesterday, on account of
the partial quarantine in effect here,
of suspected case of foot and mouth
disease in the yards. So far nothing
corroborates the belief that the said
disease exists here, save the sore
mouth symptom, which might come
from other cause, and the scare is
apparently blowing over, though the
experts have not issued a positive
statement up to this time. Gamer
cows sold strong today, buyers wait
ing in line for them, besides taking
several hundred hold over thin stock
calves at $3.50, for canning purposes.
ClOCh6IS anu I1O
grades held in the yards have been
disposed of to killers as Gamers, but
the good ones will be kept till the
final outcome of the investigation is
known. In the meantime it is not
advisable to send stockers and feeders
to market.
Hogs-Receipts overran the morn
ing estimate of 10000 by some 6OOO
The market opened. slowly, but set
tied down to to 10 lower basis, top
price S9. 90, bulk SO. 40 to S9.S5, heavy
and medium weights each bringing
the top, lights 50 10. Everything was
cleaned up early except some mixed
loads of light weights, containing
many pigs, these having to stand con-
siderable sorting. Quality is steadily
improving, the liberal supply today
being best average quality seen here
in two months.
Sheep and Lambs-Lambs sold up
to s12-10, all the strictly good ones at
s12 and upwards, and ewes brought
S7.S5, new high records for this sea-
son. Some fair to good wetherS
brought SS 15. Gull stock was sold
at the usual margin of two cents a
pound or more below top stuff. Mod
crate supplies are in store for another
week or two, when the run NAV pick
up little, cars having been ordered
for the crop of Colorado pea fed
lambs starting next week

PROTECTS HIS CUSTOMERS

The true merchant-the home mer-
chant-seeks at all times to see that
his customers are not deceived or I'M
posed upon. He learns to know the
reliable jobbers and manufacturers
he deals only with them. He carries
only standard brandS--goods bearing
the stamp of honesty. By making a
study of his business, by knowing
merchandise as the mechanic knows
steel and iron, or as thefarmer knows
the grain and live stock, the mer-
chant is able to discuss intelligently
with his friends and neighbors the
questions of value, quality, style and
workmanship, and, by actual tests
and comparisons to explain TO the
buyer just why certain brands and
makes will give greater satisfaction,
or greater service to the user. He Is
able to show just why an inferior art
icle at cheap price may be far more
expensive than a good article which
costs q higher price. The home mer-
chant can take up with you the varl-
Gus methods of manufacture. From
the great mass of information at his
command, he can tell you how unfair
manufacturers. seek to profit at the
expense of the buying public, send
out otf-brand goCdS under names al
most like the names and brands used
by honest makerS-how these manu-
facturers claim their goods to be of

quality at all. Today, there is sub
stitution in'every line of merchandise
ing-goodS which to the ordinary buy
er seems TO be as kood as any offered
on the market, but which are made
to sell, not for service. The home
dealer knows these things. 1t is his
business to keep posted. He sees TO
it that these questionable makes and
brands do not lind place in his store.
His success depends on fair dealing
He sees to it that the buyer gets
quality quality quality the
highest that can be had. And-qual-
ity is the thing that counts. Cheap
stuff, as we all know, is no good at
any yprice.-(Copyright 1916

THEIR TINE TO LAUGH

Republicans might as we'll joyously
concede that in the practical game of
practical politics the Democrats Sim
ply smothered them in this gladstone
catastrophy of 1916. The Big Hit
which the Democrats put on, looking
serious all the while, was the popular
song of the year, HE Kept Us Out of
War" 1t was the little trick which
brought home the bacon. And there
is no use for the Republicans to get
sore because today the Democrats all
over the country are laughing them
selves to death about it-they have a
right to bust themselves a laughin'
In happy throngs Jt-y are gathering
to recount how they had the cold
shivers running down the spiEes of
the dear people, how they had splen-
did women softly weeping as they
told how the horrors of war would
descend like an avalanche if Hughes
should be elected. And let 'em haw,
haw-for Heavens Sake haven't they
earned the right TO do it? Any set of
fellows smart enough to put as rich a
thing as that over are Some Smart,
and Republicans might as well enjoy
the joke with the rest of the folks

AD- IN PAPER FOUND MISSING REL
ATIVES

An advertisement inserted in the
daily issue of the Republi .an of No
vember 3rd last brought Information
to two Kansas brothers which they
had been seeking for many years
The advertisement was mailed to the
paper by Frank Kuck, of Wilson,
Kansas. asking for information con-
corning his parents or relatives, and
answers sent by local people who
read the advertisement brought Mr..
kuck and his brother, Joseph Basala,
or Trego county, Kansas, to Trenton
Friday, where they found the long
sought knowledge.
The two brothers were left by their
mother. Mrs. Anna Hoffman, in an
orphans home, known as 1.-The Home
OF The Association for Friendless
Women" in Leavenworth, Kansas,
April 4th, 1881. A few months later
they were adopted by two Kansas
families and each lad was given a
different name, Frank Hoffman be-
coming Frank Kuck and Jesse Hoff-
man becoming Joseph Basala.
When the brotnerS grew old enough
to become curious as to their own
condition, they began a search for
relatives which ended only when
their inquiries addressed 10 Trenton
were answered.
The two men came to Trenton Fri
day and had little ditf1culty in locat-

city, who is a broJher-in-law of their
mother. The father Zack Hoffman
was formerly an employee of the
Rock Island here and died as the re-
suit of injuries received while in the
service of the, company. Mrs. Hoff-
man was later remarked and her last
husband is now living at Palmyra,
Mo. Another uncle, Henry Hoffman,
brother of the mems father, resides
at Seymour, Ia. Other relatives loc-
ated were Mrs. Lucy Bollinger, Mrs.
Sarah Hall, Mrs. Bette Smith and
Jas. Gentry, all of this city, cousins
OF the two men.
The brothers Saturday morning
visited the old home at Carnes street
where they were born. Frank Lax,
an old resident remembered their
parents and gave them much valued
Information concerning their family.
Mrs. Hall had a small photograph
of their mother and gave it to them.
1t is possession which they prize
very highly.
I'VE have certainly enjoyed our
visit in Trenton" said Mr.. Basala
Saturday." and we feel very CRATE

getting the Information we wanted.
We are going up to Seymour now to
visit our uncle and shall probably
make another visit with our newly
discovered relatives in Trenton be-
