Mrs. Martha Pohlman Of 65 Chester Avenue, Newark, N. J., who is a graduate Nurse from the Blockley Training School, at Philadelphia, and for Six years Chief Clinlo Nurse at the Philadelphia, Hospital, writes the letter ? Tinted below. She has he advantage of personal experience, besides her professional education, and what she has to say tnay be absolutely relied upon. j Many other women are afflicted as she was. They ' can regain health In tho same way, Jt is prudent to heed such advloo from such a source. Wrs. Pohlman writes: J "I am firmly persuaded, after eight years of experienoe with Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, that it If the loie-t and best medicine tor any suffering woman to use." 1 "Immediately after my marriage I found that my '; health began to fail me. I be- icmine weak and pale, with svere bearing-down pains, 'ifuu-ful backaches and fre quent dizzy spells. The doctors prescribed for me, yet I did not iinrjroTe. I would bloat jeitor eatlug, and frequently become nauseated. 1 una pains down through my limbs so I could hardly walk. It wot as bud a case of female trouble as I have ever known. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, however, eared me within four months. Sinoe that time I have had occasion to recommend it to a number of patients suffering from all forma of female difficulties, and I find that while It is considered unprofessional to rec ommend a patent mediciiio, I can honestly recommend Lydia . I'inliliam's Vegetable Compound, for 1 have found that it cures female ills, where all other medicine falls. It Is a grand medicine for sick women."

Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound at once removes such troubles. No other female medicine in the world has received such widespread and unqualified endorsement. The needless suffering of women from diseases peculiar to their sex Is terrible to see. The money which they pay to doctors who do not help them is an enormous waste.

It was related to him by a fr'.cnd In tho railroad service as follows: "My little girl came to me a little while before Christmas and said: 'Papa, I want you to pray to God and ask him to have Santa Claus bring me a dolly for Christmas.' I promised, and on ChriBtmns rr.ornlnj she found her doll, and called me to see it. As sho looked It over, examining tho face, the eyes, the hair, and tho clothes, she said, 'Papa, hain't Cod good? He's Roodcr than I thought he was. Do you think ho sent llttlo brother anything?' "I told her she might go over to her grandma's, where brother was vlsitinp, and find out. Presently she returned, with her face all covered with happy smiles, and exclaimed, 'O, papa! God sent brother a beautiful great big hobby-horse,' "Breakfast came soon after and as we Bat down at the tablo she climbed upon my knee, and putting her arms around my neck she said again, 'Hain't God good? and he was gooder to broth er than he was to me, wasn't he?' "I replied, "Yes, he Is good, and now what are you going to do for God. dear?' "'O, I'm going to let God play with my dolly all he wantB to; and I'm go ing to ask brother to let God ride his hobby-horse, too.' "Boston Post.

Monetary conditions are satis factory, with rates of interest 4'A to 5 per cent on time. "In clothing there is a substantial gain in the volume of orders as compared with the same period last year, though manufacturers are unable to get as satis factory profit, owing to the greater cost of material. In the dry goods jobbing market business is becoming more active and salesmen are sending in good orders. Millinery jobbers reports sales to date the largest for several years past and an ticipate a prosperous season. Boot and shoe manufacturers are advancing prices from lo to 25 per cent., owing to the sharp advance in leather. "Retail trade has been somewhat un satisfactory, owing to the unexpected mildness of the winter season, but this apparent!" has had no effect upon the J early buying for summer goods. 1 here is a large trade in hosiery, underwear and notions and straw hat factories are well supplied with orders.

"I understood him to say that It was nlno miles." "Well, then. It's "leven." I took his word for It and went on, but found the dliitance only seven miles. Returning that way next day, I encountered the farmer mowing weeds along the highway nnd said: "Why did you tell me yesterday that It was eleven miles to Palnsvllle? You must have known that it was only seven." "Rill Scovel told you nine, didn't he?" "Yes."

It. would appear that tho Emperor TIterlus was tho originator of that well known saying: "Every man at forty Is cither a fool or a physician." But Tiberius said thirty, rot forty, so Bacon Ir.fcrn s 113 ia hi3 "History of Lire and Death": "Tiberius, though a drunkard and luxurious In h!s diet, was yet very careful of his diet and used to say that every ot:c after thirty was cither a fool or a physician." Probably Bacon's authority was Tacitus ("Annals," book VI., chapter 40), who says of Tiberius that "He was wont to make cport of the physi cians, and of people who after thirty needed others to tell them what was food or bad for them." In Tacitus, of course, tho epigrammatic flavor is lest. But why has popular usage altered the ago from thirty to forty? Simply on account of the alliteration, so car essing to the popular ear. De Quln cey, v.ho quotes the modern phrase In his "Orluro-Eater,". dwells uron Its nlllterr.tlvo value, and conjectures that cur forefathers emphasized that alliteration by spelling physician with an F.
