Suffering.
More Convincing Proof.

When Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound was first introduced its cur
alive powers were doubted and had to
be proved. But the proof came, and
gradually the use of it spread over the
whole country. Now that hundreds of
thousands of women have experienced
the most beneficial effects from its use
its value has become generally recog-
nized and it is now the standard medi-
cine for women's, ills.
The following letter is only one Of the
thousands on our files.

Commenting on what the Biddeford
Journal recently said touchin' On an ap-
pertanin to the piff1ing advice now being
sent out broadcast from Washington, the
kennebec Journal says:
The biggest economy this govern
ment could effect would be to turn
out for farm labor, or even out to
pasture some of its piffle WRITER'S
But wouldn't they be more plague than
profit on farm even though they were
there only for pasturage?
We'd put bells on 'em, so we'd know
where they We're; cow-pokers on them.
so they couldn't jump out, and then we
would whisper in Harleston Rugby's
intelligent ear, take hunks out of EN-

A Biddeford man walked into his

the Biddeford Journal of Friday, and
tossed a little book upon the table.
There" he exclaimed to his better
half, I've done my bit, and done it
by purchasing $500 worth of the Lib

at the little deposit book and found
that hubby had told the truth
AT supper time the tables We're
turned. for as the husband entered
the house after his days work his
wife handed him similar evidence

much to the people. and carries tlthe
of the hazard, as the business Of COM
mon farming.
Last weeks heavy rain WAS cal
amity, as Dr. Twitchell said, and when
the money lenders and the let-George-
do-it crowd fully come to their senses
they will understand that this country
cannot be saved from disaster by
standing afar off and shouting at the
farmer to dig faster and harder and
longer, and not worry about whether
he is to get anything out of it or not. y
Perhaps next year some of these
sure-thing money farmers will be glad
to go into partnership with the farm
ers and encourage him by taking some
of the chances. We are confident that
the seed Of truth and common sense
planted by us weeks ago, has sprouted
and is growing beyond all interference
by the pests and weeds of greed. We
are watching the growth.

City Clerk Brett Of Bangor on Tues
day received a telephone message from
a man who stated that he had seen his
marriage intentions published in the
News. He gave his name and Col.
Brett looked up the record, informing
the man that the entry had been
properly made and he could Sc
cure his marriage license next Friday.
The man said But l don't want a
marriage license; I'm married already.
I want to be naturalized." Col Brett
asked why he had answered all the
questions rropounded, to which he re-
piled that he supposed he had to. He
expected that he would receive his
naturalization papers on Friday ond be
full-aedged American citizen. He
was informed that he should call on the
clerk Of courts and that the process of
naturalization was somewhat more
complicated than that OF securing a
marriage license.

been hunting but had never seen a
moose, says the Lewiston Journal. 1t
became the ambition of his life, but he
always had poor luck. Then, one fine
morning, he went to his own front door
and there was big moose crouched on
the doorstep, 1t is no great novelty to
have deer reported scampering through
Bangor streets-usually there is one
such episode a summer, but Auburn's
four-footed visitor caused a sensation.
