OH! WHAT A RELIEF.
" I suffered with terrible paint in my
left ovary and womb. My back ached
all the time.
" I had kidney trouble badly. Doc
tors prescribed for me, and I followed
their advice, but found no relief
until I took Lydia E.
Pinkham'e Vegetable
Compound. Ohl what
a relief It Is, not to
have that tired feel
leg day after day, in
the morning as much
as at night after a
hard day's work, and
to li free from all
pains cauftod by Ovarian and Womb
troubles. , I cannot express my prutl
tuile. I hop and pray thut other su
ferlng women will realize the truth
and importance of my statement, an
accept the rulief that is sure to attend
the use of the I'inkhair. Medicine

According to a correspondent uf 'the
Meadvllls Tribune, an effort of some
country rowdies to break up a Republican
meeting at Kspyvllle, at which Iter. It K.
11111 was the principal speaker, wlU be the
cause of substantial gains for the party in
that district. The Tribune says: "Several
Democrats at the close of the meeting de
clared their intention of voting for sound
money and protection, and were led to
this conclusion as much by the disrepu
table eoorts or sllvorltes to disturb the
meeting as by the argument of tha
grizzly, but the frowsiest, scrawniest
looking bear ever put on exhibition.
Several men began to murmur ubout
tho species of tho bear, and the man
rose up to explain:
"Did I say grizzly b'ur? Waal, itwas
to gin you an ngreeablo surprise.' The
cinnamon b'ur drinks u gallon of blood
whar the grizaly drinks a pint Ho'
got tho ferocity of tho lion and tiger
rolled into one. Behold his sovago spoer
it as ho smells this fresh meat."
Tho young bear simply sut up and
cocked np his curs. Tho man hud about
a pound of beefsteak, und this ho threw
to him uml explained :
"Now watch him. Seo bis eyes bluzo
with fiendish ferocity, bis claws work
and his funga stand out uinid the
froth. "
All tho cnb did was to reuch out for
tho nieut nnd bolt it down and lick bis
chops for more.
"Is thut all?" asked oue of the kick
ers.
"That is oil, ladies and gentlemen.
It costs yon a quaiter a bond to come
in, but you get out for nuthiu. The
show is now over."
'"But it's a blame swindle."
"A swindlol Oreat heavens, but hoar
tho mun talk) You liuve seen the most
ferocious denizen of tho Kocky moun
tains. .You have seen bim seize his
prey. ou Lev Turned more about b'urs

all your livtg before, and yet I am cull

Fivo hours beneo I release this tiger of

don't blame moj don't say I didn't gin

He IWt the I look.
He entered tho street car with a par
cel iu his bund, und as bo sut down he
pluccd tho parcel ut bis buck.
"Book'" queried tho man ut his left.
"Yes."
"Taking it home to reud this even
ing?" "Yes."
"I seo. Had to go half a milo cut of
your way to buy it?"
"About half a mile."
"Just aa Dollur uud a half book, I
presume?"
'That's exuotly the cost "
"Think I've read it?"
"Can't say, but it's only out today."
"Then I haven't read it und am in
luck. Thank you for tukinst this car."
Tho mun with the book looked at the
other in a queer way for a half minute
and then said:
"Did you want to see tho book?"
"Oh, no. I'll take it borne with me,
you see,"
"But I can't loan it to yon."
"No weed to. You'll leave it ou the
car."
"Oh, I see. Well, I shan't leave it"
He reached for tho book and laid it on
his kuoea, but after riding three blocks
be slid it down alongside his leg. Aft
er two blocka more ho worked it behind
him again aud became wterested in the
young woman opposite. The enoourago-

enough to keep hie thoughts busy, and
