For some time circular has been
enclosed with each bottle of our
medicine bearing this question::
"Havc you received benefit from
taking Lydia Z. Pinkham's Veg
ctablc Compound"
Replies, to date, have been re-
ccived from over SO, 900 women
answering that question.
50 per cent of which say YES.
That means that 90 out of every
100 women who take the medi-
cine for the ailments for which
itisrecommended are benefited
by it.
This is most remarkable record
of efficiency. We doubt if any
other medicine in the world
equals it.
Think Of it-only two women
out of 100 received no benefit
90 successes out of a possible 100.
Did you ever hear of anything
like itl We must admit that
we, ourselves, arc astonished.

OF course we know that our med
icinc does benefit the large major
ity of women who take it. But
that only two out of 100 received
no benefit is most astonishing.
1t only goes to prove, however,
that a medicine specialized for
certain definite ailments-not a
cure alone that is made by the
most scientific process; not from
drugs, but from a combination
of natures roots and herbs, can
and does do more good than
hastily prepared prescriptions.
You see, we have been making.
improvingand refining this med
icine for over so years until it is
so perfect and so well adapted to
womcn's needs that it actually
has the virtue to benefit 90 out of
every 100 women who take it.

efficiency has gained for it sale

Patrick Flynn and Brakeman Michael
Duggan, all of Brattleboro, were on the
northEound freight train, 4l3. which col
lided head-on with a southbound pass :

Yesterday, when Harold Conger of st.
Adams. the fireman on the passenger
train, was fatally injured. None of the
Brattle6oro men were seriously injured,
although they were badly shaken up.
Engineer George Taylor of the passenger
train was badly cut about the face, but
was not otherwise injured
Six passengers were hurt, none ser
iously. R. MOrehouse of Lebanon, n. II.
Il newsboy on the train, was thrown
through a window and severely cut
about the head.
The passenger train, proceeding about
20 or 30 miles an hour, was just coming
into the upUer railroad yard of the Cen
tral Vermont railroad here, and the
freight northbOund, was pulling onto q
siding and was going about miles an
hour. For some reason the passenger
train swung off the main line and took
the siding on which the freight was Just
coming to a halt.
Fireman Conger was alive when taken
from the wreckage, and he was taken
to the Memorial hospital in Hanover,
where he died shortly afterwards. His
right lee vas broken and his right side
was badly crushed.
The cause OF the accident is still I'M
determined by local railroad officials,
but it is said to have been caused by an
open switch which misIed the engineer
OF the freight to believe that the pass
cnger train had passed. The officials re-
fused to comment on the accident but
said that the Boston & Maine Railroad
would hold an inquiry tomorrow.

NEW YORK. Jan. 21.-James \.

fed yesterday in the appellate division
of the supreme court.
The bankers counsel repeated charges
that Mrs Anne L. Stillman had mis-
conducted herself with Fred Beauvais.

is the father of Guy. Love messages
Stillman and Beauvais were introduced.
They began Dearest honey" and Dear,

. Counsel for Mr. Stillman declared his
wife had never denied the charge that
the child is illcgitimate. and answered
her recent predictions that Guys good
name would be upheld in court by say
ing her defense had not shown reason
able probability, of success.
The action yesterday was on an ap-
peal from an order which would have
Mr. Stillman provide $500 to meet the
expenses of a hearing in the divorce suit
at Montreal. The court reserved deei-
sion. At the Montreal hearing Mrs.
Sillman planned to summon Canadians
to testify that agents for her husband
bribed and sought to bribe witnesses to
testify that she violated her marriage

Mr.. Stillman's lawyers said the
banker had paid Mrs. Stillman S122.0O0
in the last nine months without a muir

which one Curtis, who now lives in New
Hampshire, was alleged to have lost S15.-

lured to apartments by women hired tc
trap them.

offered immunity if he made a complete
confession of dealings with the so-callet
blackmail ring. others reciting that h,

revenge on a certain lawyer who was

NEW ICE-CUTTING MACHINE.
Milton Mans Invention Performs Rapid
Work-Like an Airplane.

MILTON. Jan PA unique ice-cut
ting machine is now in operation on
IamoiiIe, and every day visitors are
watching its progress and compliment
ing the owner, Henry Howard, on his
inventive skill. Mr.. Howard made the
entire machine without aid or a pattern.
The body is on a frame that can be
raised or lowered by foot pressure. At
the rear IS a Ford motor with throttle
that feeds the gas. Nine aud one-lialf
feet from the rear is a Clifford wood
saw, run on Ford axle The side guides
are made of iron pipes, the body
mounted on Il sled. There are shoes that
adjust for different depths of cutting.
AIr Howard runs the machine alone,
sitting at the rear; rides across the field
of ice and cuts I80 feet a minute, backs
around quickly and cuts another strip,
the cut ice throwing a huge spray into
the air. Two men float the ice into the
stream. Twenty five thousand cakes
can be cut in 10 hours work. This week
the Whiting and Hood creameries are
having ice cut into 22x44-inch cakes, the
Cooperative creamery will use lSx65-
inch cakes. all cut bv Mr. Howard.
The machine is as complete as an air
plane. which it somewhat resembles
when the guides are spread.
