A BEDFAST WOMAN.
Writes nn Open Letter to Women.
Mary F. Hartholomew, St. Francls
vllle. 111., writes: "About twelve years
ngo I was allllcted with female trouble.
I doctered with several skillful doctors,
but kept getting worse, until I beenme
bedfast I remained In this condition
almost two years, having had four phy
sicians tending me, but got no better.
In Dr. Hnrtimn's female hook 1 found
n case Just like mine, and concluded to
write to Dr. Hnrtman for advice. 1 am
never sorry I did so, for I owe my life
to Dr. Haitman nnd Po-ru-nn. My
friends and neighbors never expected
to eo mo well again; 'but I thank God
and Dr. Hnrtman for my rcovcry. I
nni able to be up and assist with my
household duties. I ilid not Improve
ns lapldlv as some I have road testi
monials of, but my case was of such
long standing, and. as the doctors said,
very much complicated, I could not ex
pect a rapid recovery. I Hi Ink my re
covery Is a surprise' to every one that
knew me. My nppetlie was so poor I
could net eat anything scarcely. Hut
now I can cat everything withput pain.
My bowels are regulaY: I have no trou
b'e with them. 1 have been tho exam
ple of many a man and woman In 'bad
1-enlth to try P--ru-m for a cure. I
"ould wiiti a gtcat dial more. 1 can
not praise your medicines enough. I
think that it every one would try them
they would never regret It, but would
praise them to everybody as long ns
thev live."
Dr. Hnrtman has lately written a
bonk devoted to tho ailments peculiar
to the female h"x. It la pro'fupely and

REMOVAL SALE.
Our store has been the great shopping center during
the past ten days. It will be greater than ever during the
next ten.
The prices we have placed on onr stock to sell it,
preparatory to our removal to our new store, are the lowest
prices at which good dry goods have ever been sold in
Scranton. If you have not visited ns yet, come at once ; if
you have, come again. There is always something that you
haven't seen, for in a large stock like ours, and in our lim
ited space, we can only display a small fraction of our
goods at a time.
We started out to sell this stock of dry goods, and to
make this sale the greatest sale you have ever known. We
are satisfied, from the crowds of people who are constantly
with us and the favorable comments we have heard, that we
have succeeded.
TJCSWe expect the New Store to be ready
about September 1st.
