P. O. S. of A Notes.
The last few hundred dollars of tho
$2,000 Indebtedness on Washington hall
Is being rapidly paid and the boys are
shaking hands with themselves on the
rapidity with which tho debt has been
cleared up. As near as present reports
show, the camp will clear $150 on tho
excursion held last Saturday.
The auditors paid a well deserved
compliment to the two secretaries for
tho excellent condition in which the
books have been kept. Financial Sec
retary Linden V. Decker, is a hard
worker and Camp 17S Is highly favored
in having such a secretary. In his
position as trustee, he is equally as
alert In looking out for the camp's wel
fare. The Colonial club deserves a largo
amount of credit for the raising of
money to pay the debt. The young
men are hustlers and when they start
to do a thing it is always done and
done well.

Alfred Guthelnz was also entered, but
recant developments have disqualified
him, and at present the contest ap

Is better and laughs at her fenrs, thinking there is nothing much tho

Mrs. Richard Dixon wrote'to Mrs. Pinkham when she was in great
rs. Richard Dixon wrote to Mrs.
trouble. Her letters are here printed.
"Dear Mns. Pinkham: I have suffered for four years with pain In my
back, and a terrible bearing-down feeling1 in tho lower part of my bowels, and
at times the abdomen seems to swell and becomes very sore. I have terrible .
sharp pains in my OTaries and am vory nervous, also troubled with leucorrheca
and irregular menstruation. I have started to take Lydia E. Pinkham'S
Vegetable Compound, but I do not feel much better, go I thought I would
write and ask you wJiat to do. Please answer soon, as I am a great sufferer
and long to get relief." Mrs. Eicuard Dixon', 11 Farewell St., Kewport, E.I.
(Jan.-11, 1000.) f
" Dear Mrs. Pinkham: I want to thank yon for your letter of advice. Sines
taking your Vegetable Compound, Liver Pills, and using your Sanative Wash,
as directed by you, my backache and terrible pains in ovaries have disap
peared. I feel that your Vegetable Compound should be used by all weak
women." Mrs. Eicuard Dixon, 11 Farewell St., Newport, E.l. (April 11, 1901.)
Will not the volumes of letters from women who have been
mado strong by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound con
vince others of the virtues of this great medicine ?
When a medicine has been successful In more than a million
cases, is it justice to yourself to say, without trying It, "I do not
believe it would help mo " ?
Surely you cannot wish to remain weak and sick and dis
couraged, exhausted with each day's work. If you have some
derangement of the feminine organism try Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound. It will surely help you.
