The hoard of trade, at Its monthly meeting' lust evening, HRdln illscussril the possibility of a viaduct over the railroad crossing on "West Uneksiwun na avenue, and the proposition made by the Scranton Hallway company to build a structure sixteen feet wide to allow the laying of a double trade thereon, was thoroughly aigued. It ivas the consensus of opinion that a viaduct should bo erected, but that sidewalks ought to bo added also. The Idea of a subway being built to overcome the tuesent danger was con Bldered out of the question, as the lallioad company does not favor such r plan. After much discussion the matter was referred to the streets and bridges committee, with Instructions to take immediate action and leport at tho next meeting. The committee is com posed of A. It. Holmes, Joseph 1 Phil lips, Thomas M. Watklns, II. D. Jones, A. M. Moisc, Jenkln T. Reese and Hogcr Evans.

The sidewalks on I'rlce street, between Main and Hyde Park avenue, are also In a deplorable condition, and the street commissioner will be asked to remedy them. The streets and bridges committee reported the laying of sidewalks on Price street between Main avenue end Chestnut street, and the members were asked to further the project of paving of Washburn street, from Sum ner to Van Buicn avenue.

Siorso and Joseph Oliver were appointed a spe cial committee to confer with the Fourth ward couucllmeii relative to securing permission for tho property owners on I'rlce street, between Sum ner and Bromley avenues, to construct a private sewer from their premises. OFFICERS RE-EMCCTED. President, Charles E. Daniels; vice president, Thomas M. Watklns; secre tary, Joseph Oliver, hint treasurer, William Farrell, were tlinnnlmously re-elected to servo the board another year, U. A. Williams, of the Republi can, ami W. R. Hushes, of The Trib une, were elected as honorary mem bers of the board. Tho committee on membership and dues leported several members In ar rears and their names were dropped fiom tho rolls. Dr. M. J. Williams, who was unable to attend the meet ings, sent In his resignation, which was accepted with regret. The special committee on tho loca tion of a branch postofllce, reported that proposals have been advertised for the supplying and equipment of a suitable building. A communication from Senator Boles Penrose was read and placed on file in reference to his giving attention to n house bill endorsed by tho board at tho last meeting. At the next meeting President Dnn lels will appoint tho standing commit tees and Secretary Oliver will submit his annual report. The viaduct com mittee will also report, and the board will probably then adjourn for the summer months. BETTER SEWERAGE! NEEDED. When the main sewer was connect ed with tho old Oxford mine culvert and thence carried down to the river, about 23 feet of the old culvert wheio it ciosses the Smithing and Ansley properties on Meridian street was not reconstructed and as a consequence during every severe storm for the past six or eight years these properties have suffered from tho w ater bursting through this section and causing dam age and annoyance. The escaping sewer gas Is also both dangerous and annoying. Since South Main and Hyde Park avenues have been paved a greater amount of refuse than before is forced through the sew er. During yesterday's storm both of the above properties were badly damaged, tho water standing fiom one to two feet deep in tho barns and outbuildings, so that tho horses and cattle had to be removed. Complaint has been made to council men and street commissioners for years without a lemedy being effected. These property owners contemplate suing the city for several thousand dollars damages.

Such women wear themselves out with suffering and seem to think there is no relief from the monthly pains. Miss Emily F. Hass, oi 148 Freeman Street, Qrccnpolnt, Brooklyn, N. Y., writes: " ' Dear Mrs. Finkham I vrish to state that I used your ' Vegetable Compound with" the greatest success. I was very sick for nearly a year with hysteria, was down hearted and nervous; also suffered with painful mens truation and pain in back and limbs. I often wished for death, thinking nothing would cure me. I had doctors, but their medicines did me no good. At last, by the advice of a friend, I be gan to take Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound with very little hope of its doing me any good, but I am happy to say I am entircy cuted. Thanking you for the good your medicine has done me, I am sending you my testimonial, hoping it will help others." Special advice for every suffering wo man can be secured free pf cost by writ- wt ma A- t l I sr - U I (s 1 -- , ni lu miB.njiiuicuii-jr at Lynn, Mass., for it Mrs. C. D. Smith, 221 Eleventh St,, Racine, Wis., writes: Dear Mrs. Finkham I gladly give you my L". testimonial in favor of J your remedies. When I nrst commenced your treatment I had been suffering from female troubles and weakness for some time. Menses were irregular, coming too of ten, and were very pain ful. I could not walk a great distance, had those terrible bearing-down feeling in the lower part of bowels, backache, and pain in left ovary. I used five bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and my mensss have become regular, and am cured of that bearing-down feeling after walking. I consider your Com pound one of the best medicines there is for those complaints pecu liar to women. I thank you for the good advice you gave me. I will gladly recommend your medicine, and hope that every one who suffers as T did will give it a trial." To sacrifice beauty, disposition and health to a false idea is folly. Generations of ignor ance have handed down belief in the necessity of monthly suffering. A healthy woman should experience but little pain and only a moderate amount of inconvenience. Mrs, Van Gloft Advlsos Women. ' Dear Mrs. Pinkham For several years my health was miserable. I suffered the most dreadful pains, and was almost on the verge of insanity. I consulted one. of the best physi cians in New York, and he pronounced my disease a fibroid tumor, advising an operation without delay, saying that it was my only chance for life. Other doctors prescribed strong and violent medicine, and one said I was incurable, another told me my only salvation was galvanic batteries, which I tried, but nothing relieved me. One day a friend called nnd begged me to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I began its use and took several bottles. From the very first bottle there was a wonderful change for tho better. The tumor has disappeared entirely and my old spirits have returned. I heartily recommend your medicine to all suffering women." Mrs. Van Cleft, 416 Saunders Ave., Jersey City Heights, N. J. Lydia E.
