A woman la sick some dlscnso peculiar to her sex Is fast develop in in her system. Slio goes to -nor family physician nnd tolls him a Btory, but not tho whole story. She holds back something, loses her head, becomes ngitated, forgets what she wauts to say, and finally conceals what bIio ought to have told, nnd this completely mystifies the doctor. Isit a wonder, therefore, that tho doctor falls to cure tho disease? Still we cannot blame tho woman, for it is very embarrassing to detail some of tho symptoms of her Buffering, even to her family physician. Tills Is tho roii.son why hundreds of thousands of women nro now In correspondence with Mrs. Finkluim, nt Lynn, Mnss. To her they can give every symptom, so that when she is ready to advise them she is in possession of more facts from her correspondence with the patient than the physician can possibly obtain through a personal interview. Following we publish a letter from n woman showing the result of ' a correspondence with Jlrs. Pinkham. All such letters are considered absolutely confidential by Mrs. Pinkham, nnd are never published in any way or manner without the consent in writing of the patient; but hundreds of women are so graceful for the health which Mrs. Pink ham and her medicine have been able to restore to them that they nob only consent to publishing their letters, bub write asking that this be done In order thtit other women who suffer may be benefited by their experience. Here is Proof of the Value of Mm. Pinkham'S Advice. ' "Dear Mbs. Pinkham: I have been taking your medicine for two months and write to you for some advico concerning, H. I am in very poor health and have been for nearly three- years. I am troubled with a pain and soreness in tho back of my head and ncclc which develops into an almost un bearable headache at time of menstruation. Since last August I have been confined to my bed a great part of the time. In January I was taken very sick with one of my awful headaches, and lay for five weeks in a critical condition. Our doctors were unable to tell mo 'the cause of my illness. I had a slow fever seemingly in my nerves with a marked bilious affection. I was completely prostrated. My physician did nothing for me but to put me to sleep, said it was tho condition of my nerves at the time of menstruation. I was advised to tako Ijydia B. Pinkham'S Vegetable Compound, and would like your advice and to know tho cause of my bad feelings."MB3, Frances I. McCbea, Sheridan, Mont. (April 27, 1000.) " Dkar Mr.s. Pinkiiam : I wish, to testify that I have been greatly bene fited by the use of your medicine. After taking four bottles I felt better, m head and neck were greatly relieved. After reading the testimonies in tWrt book you sent me, I believed that I had a tumor, and a, while after when something the size of nn egg passed from me, I was convinced of the fact. I now feel like a new creature, can go to my work, and can eat and Bleep well, a privilege that I appreciate very much." Mrs. Frances I. McCbea, Sheridan, Mont. 5000 nEWARD.

A writer in Country Life In Ameilc.i tells a pretty story of tho bird. Ho says: "Without warning, tho sphg ot tho heimlt hurst forth closo to my car, and not four feet away, on a low bush, sat my longed-for hermit thrush. I la was awaro of my presence, for his yellow-ringed, (.oft, brown eyes wcro fixed Intently on mo. Yet, with bond thrown back and wings slightly drooped, ho sanj? fiercely on, tho quivering, arrow-spotted throat pouring forth tippling melody. Cautiously 1 hat up, and tho blngor hopped to another twig with iippnroiit agitation, but continued his song. A low rustlo of a dry leaf behind mo caught my enr, and tho secret was out. Crouched closo to tho ground, wings outspread, ran the little miilo with a young bird almost leady to fly concealed under Its wins;, Tho whole nffalr was plain, I had chanced near tho nest, built on tho ground among tho plno-nccdlcs, moss and grasses, Tho fathor had undertaken a attract my attention whtlo tho motlwr spirited away tho offspring. Tho plucisy plan would have been carried through without my knowledge." DR. DENSTEN, PHYSICIAN AND SURGEON 311 Spruce St. Scruiituu, v All Acuto and Chronic Diseases of M Woinon and Children. .
