KLONDYKE GOLD.
Therc are some things yet moie pre
cious than gold. Health Is one of these
things. Without health nothing Is of
any value. To And health we must
Inquire of those who have found the
way. Experience Is a better teacher
than medical college. Read Miss
Peter's story.
Miss Lizzie Peters, Mascoutah, 111.,
writes recently to Dr. Hartman: "I
would like to let the world know what
a wonderful medicine Pe-ru-na is. 1
am perfectly cured of female weakness
by taking Pe-ru-na and Man-a-ltn. I
have gained thirty-seven pounds since
taking Pe-ru-na. My friends are won
dering what makes me look so bright
and healthy. Before I knew what Pe-ru-na
was I had told my parents that
I would never get cured, and that I
could not live much longer. It was
Pe-ru-na alone that brought me back
to health. Those who have been suf
fering for years, either young or old,
should not give up hope, but should
try Pe-ru-na at once." ,
Dr. Hartman's free treatment for
women Is attracting wide attention.
Any woman by sending name, address,
symptoms, duration of disease and
previous treatment can become a regu
lar patient. The doctor will give all
necessary advice and prescription by
correspondence. Thousands are cured,
and thousands more are seeking a
cure. Write for free book written by
Dr. Hartman for women only. Address

Tho Hospital and a FoarfUl
Tlospltalsln frreatclties are and places to visit. Three
fourths of tho patients lying on thoso anow-w hlto beds
are women and girls.
Why should this be the case ?
Because they hare neglected themselves! Women
as a rule attach too little importance to first symp
toms of a certain kind. If they have toothache,
they will try to saTe tho tooth, though many leave
even this too late. They comfort themselves with
the thought that they can replace their teeth ; but
they cannot replace their internal organs 1
Every one of those patients In the hospital beds
had plenty of warnings in the form of bearing-down
feclinirs. rjaln at tho right or the left of the womb,
nervous dvsncpsla, pain in the small of
"blues,"or some other unnatural symptom,
not heed them.
Don't drag along at home or in tho shop until you aro finally obliged to
go to the hospital and submit to horrlblo examinations and operations!
Build up tho female organs. Lydla E. Pinlcham's Vegetable Compound will
save you from the hospital. It will put new life into you.

The beginning of our Great Shoe
Sale has been a revelation to us. We
never expected that we could sell so many
shoes in so very few hours. If the crowd
our sale attracted was a surprise to us,
the prices we asked tor our goods must
have been a surprise to the army of pat
rons who availed themselves of our offer.
HERE IS THE EVIDENCE.
Many customers who came with the
intention of buying one or two pairs went
away in many instances with more than
a dozen. Our salespeople need use no
persuasion. Quality and prices do that.
Come now, if you have the ready cash,
or come later, the stock is of such volume
as to meet the requisites of every shoe
buyer in Lackawanna county.
