Praise Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
Women from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from ali sections
of this great country, no city so large, no village so small
but that some woman has written words of thanks for
health restored by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound. No woman who is suffering from the ills peculiar
to her sex should rest until she has given this famous remedy
a trial. Is it not reasonable to believe that what it did for
these women it will do for any sick woman ?

Wonderful Case of Mrs. Crusen,
of Bushnell, 111.
BrsHNELL, III.—" I think all the trouble I nave had since my
marriage was caused by exposure when a young girl. _ Mv work has
been housework of all kinds, and I have done millung in the cold and
snow when I was too young to realize that it would hurt me. I have
suffered very much with bearing down pains in my back and such
miserable pains across me, and was very nervous and generally ran
down in health, but since I have taken Lydia L. Pmkham s \ egetable
Compound mr back never hurts me, my nerves are stronger, and I
am gaining in health everyday. I thank you for the great help I
have received from vour medicine, and if my letter will benefit suf
fering women I will be glad for you to print it."—Mrs. JAMES CRUSEN,
Bushnell, Illinois.
A Grateful Atlantic Coast Woman.
TTODGDOX, ME.—" I feel it a duty I owe to all suffering women to
tell what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound did for me. One
year ago I found myself a terrible sufferer. I had pains in both sides
and such a soreness I could scarcely straighten up at times. My
back ached r I had no appetite and was so nervous I could not sleep,
then I would be so tired mornings that I could scarcely get around.
It seemed almost impossible to move or do a bit of work and I
thought I never "would be any better until I submitted to an opera
tion. I commenced taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
and soon felt like a new woman. I had no pains, slept well, had good
appetite and was fat and could do almost all my own wx>rk for a fam
ily of four. I shall always feel that I owe my go<*l health to your
medicine."—Mrs. HAYWARD SOWERS, Hodgdon, Mainp.
For 30 years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound has been the standard remedy for fe- I]\ /\
male ills. No one sick with woman's ailments W[ r Yo\
does justice to herself If she does not try this fa- I / va \ V
moos medicine made from roots and herbs, it 11 ]7i TJ 1 1
has restored so many suffering women to health. II ¥ I

I and they are funnier than ever in their
career. The book of "The Ham Tree"
is by George V.' Hobart. the lyrics by

by Jean Schwartz. Mr. Cort has spent

pany of much excellence. A special fea

t'OI.VIN GIVES GOOD ENTERTAIN
MENT
I The success with which Colvin has
1 begun a three-day engagement at the
j Colonial Theater, proves that vaude-
ville audiences are always ready to
look at a clever hypnotist. Colvin is
one of the best in his line that has
ever appeared in Harrlsburgr, and he
is keeping his audiences in constant
laughter, on tTie same bill with him
are the Harmony Trio in popular songs;
Mercedes Bock and Company, in a com
edy playlet, and Lew Fitzgibbons, an
expert xylophonist. This rounds out
one of the best shows that the Colonial
has had this season.—Advertisement.

PROGRAM REM
Revenue Raising Measures Are to
Be Put to the Front in the
Legislature Now
LOOK FOR $6,400,000
Attorney General Brown Talks on
What It Is Hoped to Accom
plish by the Bills
Governor Brumbaugh's pla.ns for
raising funds for the Improvement and !
maintenance of the State's system of i
highways and to meet additional ex- I
penses In the State government will i
take shape Immediately. The general j
program as outlined in the Telegraph !
last night will be put through, the !
legislative leaders having agreed to it. ;
This will be done regardless of any
other legislative matters, local option, i
compensation, child labor, public serv
ice or any other thing.
The bills it was decided to put
through and the amount of money
they are estimated to raise each year
follow:
Anthracite coal tax. 60 per
cent, to state and 40 per
cent, to anthracite coun
ties $4,300,000
Fifty per cent, increase in
automobile licenses 600,000
Two-cent tax on each SIOO
worth of stock sold or
transferred 500,000
Repeal of law making State
pay for the primary elec
tion expenses 800,000
Total $6,400,000
Attorney General Brown ill telling
about the conference made the follow
ing statement:
"The conference felt that a division
of the anthracite tax, 60 per cent, to
the State and 40 to the anthracite
counties would be fair. The tax pro
posed In the pending bill Is about
5 cents a ton. At this rate the gross
amount of revenue would be about
$4,500,000 a year. The conference
discussed the advisability of increas
ing the tax to about 7*s cents a ton,
which would bring in $7,000,000 a
year. The State would have to pay
out 1 per cent, of its share for collec
tion.
"It has been decided to call a con
ference of the senators and repre
sentatives from the anthracite coun
ties Tuesday afternoon. The Gov
ernor and I will attend and we will
endeavor to reach a satisfactory agree
ment with them.
"The conference decided that a
state commission would be created to
investigate the charges that anthracite
coal prices have been raised exorbi
tantly because ol' the tax. This com
mission would also look into any
future extortionate rates. It and the
State would tight any attempt to in
crease the price per ton to a larger
sum than the regular selling price of
coal with the tax added. We would
resort to the use of bulletins, sent
broadcast over the state, and to llrst
page advertisements in newspapers if
necessary.
"We agreed to the passage of the
pending bill to put a stamp tax of
2 cents on each SIOO value of stock
sales and transfers. New York is
raising $5,000,000 a year from this
source. We estimate this would bring
us at least $500,000 a year.
"The new escheat bill is to be put
through. All money in the various
institutions of the state which has
been unclaimed for ten years would
escheat to the state, with the pro
viso that its original owners would 1
have another ten years in which to \
claim it. There would be no fees for |
informers or no graft of any kind.
"It was also decided that arrange
ments would be made for the State to
carry its own insurance. We are now
paying over SIOO,OOO a year in pre
miums. This would be done by es
tablishing a sinking fund. We have
$250,000 that would be available at j
once.
"The Attorney General's office will !
proceed to the collection of money for ;
the care of Indigent insane in cases
where the relatives are able to pay
but have been allowing the State to j
put up the $2.50 a week for the care '
of the patient. We figure that we can >
bring in from $200,000 to «400.00<i
from this source. We have legislation |
before the legislature which gives us I
the right to appoint all attorneys!
employed in any department of the |
state government. All over the state
lawyers are representing the register
of wills and the county treasurers in
the collection of the mercantile tax. !
They would all be available for use in
this department and some of them i
would be brought here during legis- i
lative sessions to help or at other
times when they would be needed.
"We figure that we will get an
additional $50,000 revenue from the
new moving picture censor bill.
"The conference decided in favor of
a 50 per cent, increase in automobile
licenses. The rate f»r the heavy
trucks that are ruining the roads may
be larger." He laughingly remarked
that he had a bill on his desk which
proposes to take the tax off traction
; engines. One gathered that this would
hardly go to the Governor with his
O K.
Mr. Brown said the conference was
of the opinion that it was not th<- time
to press the bills to place a tax of
: 4 mills on bonds at their source or to
tax manufacturing corporations 1 mill.
"I find." said Mr. Brown, "the
' taxable value of the real estate of
1 Pennsylvania is $5,332,133,902. A tax
: of.l mill would raise $5,302,133. I
. just happened to have these figures in
the conference this morning, but I
• guess such a tax would not be oop
■ ular."
1 Governor Brumbaugh said the bill
to repeal the personal property tax
law of 1913 would not be pushed It
would tnterfere with the Philadelphia
plan to tloat loans.
> The conference agreed that the bill
' to repeal the law requiring the Statt
. to pay the expenses of the primary
elections would be passed. This wiil
[ save SBOO,OOO a year. The cost of the
r elections would have to be borne by
the counties.
