ARE PROPRIETARY MEDICINE
FRAUDULENT?
Undoubtedly, there may be some
that are, but on the other hand,
there are many proprietary remedies
that are as standard as any
tion that any present day physician
can write, and in thousands of homes
you will find these old, reliable reme
dies in every day use with satisfac
tory results. Such a medicine is
Lydia E, Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, which, for nearly 40 years,
has been alleviating the suffering of
womankind, and overcoming >> me of
the most serious ailments of her sex.
If you are suffering from any of the
ailments of women, just give this
medicine a trial and prove its worth
for yourself.

first aid man for the Harrisburg
Motive Power baseball team of the 1
Motive Power league. Whenever the
local team is scheduled home he will !
be on the job, "with his little box,"
prepared to render any assistance if
necessary to the players.
The hospital car at Enola where I
"Doc" makes his headquarters is one I
of the finest in the service of the j
railroad company. It was built from !
an old passenger car. The car is |
divided into two rooms and equipped j
with all necessities in case of rail- '
road accidents. One of the rooms is j
fitted out as an operating room, I
which resembles that of the city !
hospital. The car has been taken !
out along the system several times |
in cases of emergency.
