.Nothing Succeeds Like "EGG-O-SEE." !
The man who preaches the best ser- j
mon; the man who tells the funniest
stories; the man who keeps the best
store; or the man who makes the best
goods soon finds that people come to (
him. Merit is the best advertisement
in the world. People speak well of
things they know are good. They pass
the good word along.
The best breakfast food is EGG-O
SEE, for it contains all the life-giving
properties of nature's best food, which
is wheat.
EGG-O-SEE is deeply in debt to the
thousands of wives and mothers who
use it in tfieir homes, for these good
women tell their neighbors about this
great food.
Children and aged persons alike are
friends of EGG-O-SEE.
Merit and common sense are the
things that advertise EGG-O-SEE
most. EGG-O-SEE is cheap. A 10-
cent package contains ten liberal
breakfasts. EGG-O-SEE is sold every
where. Grocers must keep it if they
want to keep their good customers,
for good customers insist on buying
EGG-O-SEE.
The fact that no preparation, n?
cooking is required, makes EGG-O
SEE very popular. Open the package;
put as much as you like in a dish;
pour on milk or cream and eat. I!
is delicioil*. It is wholesome. It
makes you strong.
A lot of interesting facts about
EGG-O-SEE have been published in
book form entitled, "Back to Nature."

Of all the stages on the southern

distinguished because it had been held
up by Arizona stage robbers and In

It is said that so much Arizona "pizen"

To Help Fight
Attorney General Moody Selects Frank |
B. Kellogg of St. Paul as Aid
in Legal Battle.
St. Paul, Minn.—Frank B. Kellogg,!
of this city, one of the leading attor- !
neys of the northwest, interested in j
the steel trust and known as a clever j
corporation lawyer, has been chosen I
by Attorney General Moody to assist \
in the great legal battle which the j
government has begun against the j
Standard Oil company.
Mr. Kellogg attracted attention by i
his splendid work for the government |
in its fight against the paper combine. |
He was also associated with Elihu
Root in the Harriman-Hill Northern
Securities litigation.
Frank B. Kellogg is an orator. Bit- '
terncss has small place in him. He ! j
can reply sharply to a sharp chal- i
lenge, but apparently without a parti- I

Mr. Kellogg is a native of New York. •
He was reared on a farm and attend- I
ed public schools in Minnesota, to
which state his parents had moved.
His rise in his profession began
soon after his admission to"the bar,
when he was made city attorney of
Rochester, Minn. Later he became
county attorney of Olmstead county i
and entered the law firm of Davis,

Ready to back up his words by deeds,
he took his craft, the Uraad, a 3,000-
mile voyage across the Atlantic. With
a crew of four men, the little vessel
sailed frpm Aalcaund, in Norway, to
CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, AUGUST 9, 1906.
Drivers and guards were always I

Having "round ups" with train robbers j
was part of the weekly business, and '
tlio first thing the "helpers" did wh'lo j
the horses were changing at relay sta

tell the next stage load of tourists and
prosepectirs that came that way.
Wells, Fargo & Co. did just as much i
for the country and civilization in j
those days as any armed regiment of j
soldiers. They employed brave men
at Cheyenne in the early days. Onco !

Wyoming was going to attack the
treasure to arrive that night. It was |
a rich cargo of gold dust and coin that j
the express company was hurrying I
across the plains."
The manager wasn't frightened a ■
bit. lie put the treasure in a round- j
house made of timbers, almpst air- I
tight, and pierced with holes on every j
side, just large enough for a man to
sight his gun through. Twenty men, |
each with a sawed-off gun and several :
kegs of slugs and powder were piled in
on top of the treasure and the men told
to shoot everything in sight.
The plaza in front of the hotel was 1
cleared, and about two o'edock next
morning the attack opened and the
defenders began pumping lead into
| the invaders. It was a great tight j
and lor a few minute;; there was a'
continuous rour of rifles and shotguiiu. |
The air was mixed with Are, slugs |
and old nails. The boys won a great j
victory for the express company and '
it was nearly a week before they be
gan hanging thieves again to the tele- [
graph poles along the principal streets
of the town. All the residential 1
thieves had been killed. The Method-!

he never had so flourishing a eongre- j

he saw a new man swinging from a
rope every day he went down-town to j

COMB-HONF.Y SHIPPING CASE
Arrangement by Which the Ulasa
Fronts to the Sections Are
Eliminated.
The shipping case here shown was
exhibited at. the Michigan State Bee-
Keepcrs' association convention at
Jackson, and was quite favorably
commented on by the members pres
ent, says Gleanings in Bee Culture.
The freight classification puts honey
"in glass" as first class, and that "in
THE IIONEY COMB PACKING CASE,
wood" as second class. When this tar
iff was first printed, some of the roads
were inclined to consider that all
comb honey in shipping case 3 with
glass front was in glass, and, conse
quently, the freight rate was pushed
up one notch; but after considerable
explanation wo showed that, evidently,
such classification referred to honey in
lX'tilc-3; tbut comb heney in a shipping
case with glass fronts ought togo as
6eeond class because the percentage
of glass was very small to the amount
of wood. All the railroads, I think,
now accept shipping cases with glass
fronts as second class. But the bee
keeper must not make the mistake of
having such honey billed "in glass" or
else it will go at first class rates.
The Aspinwali case is a very unique
one; and if the discrimination against
glass fronts had continued the all
wood case with the lettering would
have been the solution.
The all-wood case can be made con
siderably cheaper, and I do not know
why it would not be just as good. If
the freight handler cannot read he
ought to be bounced from the pay-roll.
Shipping cases with glass fronts have
been broken into, and the fine cakes
of honey despoiled by some big fin
gers, time and time again. The Aspin
wali case would prevent anything of
this kind.
The arrangement of the no-drip
cleats in mortises or slots in the ends
of the case is very unique. It could
not, however, be very well applied to
a glass-front case showing four sec
tions six deep. But where the cases
are two-row, like the sample here
shown, there will he no trouble about
mortising for the cleats.

THE POULTRY.
More attention should be given to
water fowls.
The poultry yard, as well as the
poultry house, needs to be kept clean.
When fowls need a tonic, there
are some who put a few drops of
tincture of iron into their drinking
troughs.
Tobacco stems covered with straw
are an excellent preventative of in
sect breeding, especially when the
hens are setting.
Feed the fowls about to be shipped
nothing but hard grain the day pre
vious. They will carry better and
arrive in a better condition.
So long as good prices can be ob
tained for broilers it will nearly al
ways be found best to sell at this
age, or either to feed to maturity and
sell in the fall or winter.
Poultry keeping can be made an
auxiliary to other pursuits without
infringing upon the time of the keep
er and will bring in a handse>me re
turn for the food and care given
them.
Keeping Down the Mites.
Poultry droppings seem to be the
favorite conditions for breeding
mites. Coops end houses that are
cleaned often are not much troubled
with them. But it is a good plan not
to depend too much upon anything.
Careful examination needs to be
made frequently, so as to he sure that
they are not getting a start.
WHO SHE WAS
SKETCH OF THE LIFE OF LYDIA E, PINKHAM
And a True Story of How the Vegetable Compound
Had Its Birth and How the "Panic of '73" Caused
it to be Offered for Public Sale in Drug Stores.
This remarkable woman, whose
maiden name was Estes, was born in
Lynn, Mass., February <Jth, 1819, com
ing from a good old Quaker family.
For some years she taught school, and
became known as a woman of an alert
mud Investigating 1 mind, an earnest
seeker after knowledge, and above
all, possessed of a wonderfully sympa
thetic nature.
In 1843 she married Isaac Pinkham,
a builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children, three sons and a
daughter.
In those good old fashioned days it
was common for mothers to make
their own home medicines from roots
and herbs, nature's own remedies—
calling in a physician only in specially
nrgent cases. By tradition and ex
perience many of them gained a won
derful knowledge of the curative prop
erties of the various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinkham took a great interest
in the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power over disease.
She maintained that just as nature so
bountifully provides in the harvest
fields and orchards vegetable foods of
all kinds; so, if we but take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
of the field there are remedies ex
pressly designed to cure the various
ills and weaknesses of the body, and
it was her pleasure to search these out,
and prepare simple and effective medi
cines for her own family and friends.
Chief of these was a rare combina
tion of the choicest medicinal roots
and herbs found best adapted for the
cure of the ills and weaknesses pecu
liar to the female sex, and LydiaE.Pink
ham's friends and neighbors learned
that her compound relieved and cured
and it became quite popular among
them.
All this so far was done freely, with
out money and without price, as a
labor of love.
But in 1873 the financial crisis struck
Lynn. Its length and severity were too
much for the large real estate interests
of the Pinkham family, as this class
of business suffered most from
fearful depression, so when the Cente
nnial year dawned it found their prop
erty swept away. Some other source
of income had to be found.
At this point Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound was made known
to the world.
The three sons and the daughter,
with their mother, combined forces to

restore the family fortune. They
argued that the medicine which was
so good for their woman friends and
neighbors was equally good for tha
women of the whole world.
The Pinkhams had no money, andl
little credit. Their first laboratory
was the kitchen, where roots ana
herbs were steeped on the stove,
gradually filling a gross of bottles.
Then came the question of selling
it, for always before they had given
it away freely. They hired a job
printer to run off some pamphlets
setting forth the merits of the medi*
cine, now called Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, and these were
distributed by the Pinkham sons in
Boston, New York, and Brooklyn.
The wonderful curative properties of
the medicine were, to a great extent,
self-advertising, for whoever used it
recommended it to others, and the de
mand gradually increased.
In 1877, by combined efforts the fam«
ily had saved enough money to com«
mence newspaper advertising 1 and from
that time the groivth and success
tha enterprise were assured, until t«
drvy Lydia E. Piakham and her Vegn»
table Compound have become house*
hold words everywhere, and many
tons of roots and herbs are used annu«
ally in its manufacture.
Lydia E. Pinkham herself did not
live to see the great success of this
work. She passed to her reward ycara
ago, but not till she had provided
mbans for continuing her work as
effectively as she could have done it
herself.
During her long and eventful expe
rience she wa3 ever methodical in her
wor* and she was always careful to pre
serve a record of every case that came to
her attention. The case of every sick
woman who applied to her for advice—
and there were thousands—received
careful study, and the details, includ
ing symptoms, treatment and results
were recorded for future reference, and
to-day these records, together with
hundreds of thousands made since, are
available to sick women the world
over, and represent a vast collabora
tion of information regarding the
treatment of woman's ills, which for
authenticity and accuracy can hardly
be equaled in any library in the
world.
With Lydia E. Pinkham worked her
daughter-in-law, the present Mrs.
Pinkham. She was carefully instructed
in all her hard-won knowledge, and
for years she assisted her in her vast
correspondence.
To her hands naturally fell the
direction of the work when its origina
tor passed away. For nearly twenty
■ five years she has continued it, and
nothing in the work shows when the
first L3 r dia E. Pinkham dropped her
pen, and the present Mrs. Pinkham,
' now the mother of a large family, took
it up. With women assifitants, some as
: capable as herself, the present Mrs.
1 Pinkham continuesthisgreatwork,and
' probably from the office of no other
' person have so many women been ad
-1 vised how to regain health. Sick wo
• men, this advice is "Yours for Health"

Such is the history of Lydia E. Pink«
