For years we have been stating in the newspapers of the
country that a great many women have escaped serious op
erations by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, and it is true.
We are permitted to publish in this announcement
extracts from the letters of five women. All have been
recently received unsolicited. Could any evidence be
more convincing*?
IHODGDON, ME.—" I had pains in both sides and such a soreness
• I could scarcely straighten up at times. My back ached and I
■was so nervous I could not sleep, and I thought I never would be
any better until I submitted to an operation, but I commenced taking
lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and soon felt like a new
woman."—Mrs. HAYTFARD SOWERS, Hodgdon, Me.
2 CHARLOTTE, N. C.—"l was in bad health for two years, with
• pains in both sides and was very nervous. I had a growth
which the doctor said was a tumor, and I never would get well unless
I had an operation. A friend advised me to take Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound, and I gladly say that I am now enjoying
line health."—Mrs. ROSA SIMS, 16 Winona St., Charlotte, N. C.
3 HANOVER, PA.—" The doctor advised a severe operation, but my
• husband got me Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and I
experienced great relief in a short time. Now I feel like a new person
and can do a hard day's work and not mind it."—Mrs. ADA WILT,
196 Stock St., Hanover, Pa.
4 DECATUR, III.—" I was sick in bed and three of the best phyd
• cians said I would have to be taken to the hospital for an oper
ation as I had something growing in my left side. I refused to sub
mit to the operation and took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound—and it worked a miracle in my case, and I tell other women
what it has done for me."—Mrs. LAURA A. GRISWOLD, 2300 Blk. East
William Street, Decatur, 111.
5 CLEVELAND, Onio. —" I was very irregular and for several years
• my side pained me so that I expected to have to undergo an op
eration. Doctors said they knew of nothing that
would help me. I took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound and I became regular and free \
from nam. lam thankful for such a trood medi- Wl ] Jnh yA

Coal should burn to a fine ash without
continually raking and poking it.
Clinkers in the ashes is usually a sign that
the coal is not right.
Many persons began burning a certain size
and grade of coal when they began house
keeping and never change afterwards—
thinking all coal is alike because it looks
alike.
They waste lots of money burning coal
that is not suitable.
Let us send our coal expert to talk over
the coal situation with you. We have two

Recalled Seattle Mayor
Is Once More Elected
HIRAM C. GILL
Seattle, Wash., March 12.—Citizens
here can find all the elements of wo
man suffrage, "the more issue," the
direct primary and the recall, in the
recent election of Hiram C. Gill as
Mayor of Seattle. Gill was once elect
ed Mayor, then recalled, then defeat
ed and was finally elected four times
a candidate In as many years. Gili is
poor and a lawyer with a large fam
ily. He smokes a corncob pipe, and
| a friendly cartoon of him that includ
ied the now famous pipe was repro
duced as a campaign emblem. Gill
admits this cartoon "made him." In
j March, 1910, Gill men alone voting,
; Gill was elected on a platform favor
j ing a Red Light District of segregated
vice. Six months later the churches
began a campaign against the so
called vice syndicate. Eight months
Bfter Gi'l's election the women ob
tained the right to vote and started
a recall movement. In February,
1911, less than a year after he had
. been elected.. Gill was ousted In favor
of G. W. Dillingham, men and women
I voting. The recall had worked. The
women had voted. The vice Syndicate
j was destroyed, their buildings torn
| down and gambling suppressed. A
j year later. In March, 1912, Gill was
again nomiitated in the direct primary,,
i but was defeated by George F. Cotter
: 111. Much against his will Gill filed
, for the primary in January, 1914. He
poled Qone-third of the votes, having
as many votes as his two nearest com
petitors. Men and women voted in
the primary. Gill's corncob pipe, his
fight for lower taxes and his assertion
that "Gllllsm Is gone forever and with
it segregated vice." were the chief
factors In his f.ght. His Irreproach
able funnily life won hint the support
of a great number of women, despite
.the church opposition to hie candi
dacy. / '

The Quickest, Simplest
Cough Remedy
Easily and Cheaply Made at
Home. Saves You %2,
This plan makes a pint of cough
Bjrup —enough to last a family a long
time. You couldn't buv as much or as
good cough syrui> for $2.00.
Simple as it is, it gives almost in
stant relief and usually conquers an
ordinary cough in 24 hours. This is
partly due to the fact that it is slightly
laxative, stimulates the appetite and
has an excellent tonic effect. It is
pleasant to take—children like it. An
excellent remedy, too, for whooping
cough, spasmodic croup and bronchial
astnma.
Mix one pint of granulated sugar with
% pint of warm water, anil stir for 2
minutes. Put 2% ounces of Pinex (fifty
cents' w6rth) in a pint bottle, and add
the Sugar Svrun. It keeps perfectly.
Take a teaspoonful every one, two or
three hours.
Pine is one of the oldest and best
known remedial agents for the throat
membranes. Pinex is a most valuable
concentrated compound of Norway white
pine extract, and is rich in guaiacol and
other natural healing elements. Other
preparations will not work in this
combination.
The prompt results from this mixture
have endeared it to thousands of house
wives in the T T nited States and Canada,
which explains why the plan has been
imitated often, but never successfully.
A guaranty of absolute satisfaction,
or money promptly refunded, goes with
this preparation. Your druggist has
Pinex. or will get it for you. If not,
send to The Pinex Co., Ft. Wayne, Ind.
