Pinkham'’s Vegetable Compound Has Effected Similar Cures. i Many wonderful cures of female ills are continually coming to light which have been brought about by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and through the advice of Mrs. Pinkham, of. Lynn, Mass., which is given to siek women absolutely free of charge. Mrs. Pinkham has for many years made a study of the ills of her sex; she has consulted with and advised thousands of suffering women, who to-day owe not only their health but even life to her Lelpful advice. Mrs. Fannie D. Fox, of 7 Chestnut Street, Bradford, Pa., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkhauw :— “J suffered for a long time with womb trouble, and finally was told by my physician that I had a tumor on the womb. ¥ did not want to submit to an operation, so wrote you for advice. I received your letter and aia as you told me, and ay I. am completely cured. My doctor says the tumor has disap- red, and I am once more a well woman. believe Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- und is the best medicine in the world for omen.” The testimonials which we are con- stantly publishing from grateful women establish beyond a doubt the power of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com- pound to conquer female diseases. Women suffering from any form of female weakness are invited to romptly communicate with Mrs. inkham, at Lynn, Mass. She asks nothing in return for her advice. Itis absolutely free, and to thousands of women has proved to be more precious than gold. ee the p— the baby ee } HAVE YOU A BABY? if so, you ought to have 8 PHOENIX WALKING GHAIR ” _ (PATENTED) “AN IDEAL SELF-INSTRUCTOR.™ UR PHOENIX Walking Chair holds the child securely, pre- venting those painful £ and ‘bumps which are sofrequent when baby learns to walk, "BETTER THAN A NURSE," e chair is provided with a re- movable, sanitary cloth seat, which supports the weight of the child and prevents bow-legs and spinal troubles; italso has a table attach- ment which enables baby to find amusement in its toys, etc., withe out any attention. - “As Indispongable ag a cradle.” Yt is so constructed that it pre- vents soiled clothes, sickness from drafts and floor germs, and is recommended by physicians and endorsed by both motherand baby.

Dun & Co.'s “Weekly Review of Trade” says: “Confidence has be- come more general through the re- sumption “of outdoor work, opening of spring trade and expectation that the war will scon terminate. Weather conditions are favorable in most sec- ticas of the country, and there is lit- tle interruption because of labor con- troversies. Some inconvenience was caused by the local strike, and retail trade suffered temporarily, but in the aggregate the commercial loss was not extensive. The most gratifying news of the week emanates from the iron and steel industry, where un- precedented output of pig iron is not productive because of accumulated stocks. Other leading manufacturing operations are making steady pro- gress, although larger orders would be welcomed.by cotton mills and shoe shops. Commodities are in good demand. Dun’s Index Number advancing slightly to $101,932 on March 1, against $101,042 a month previous, which indicates that the people are consuming freely. This is also shown by the large increase in merchandise imported of late, although for the last week there was a decrease of $2,964, 228, compared with last year. Ex- ports gained $2,071,013. Traffic con- ditions are getting better, few com- plaints of delays are being heard, and railway earnings for February were only 4.0 per cent. smaller than in 1904. More liberal marketing of cot ton has tended to make collections better at the South, and mercantile settlements throughout the country are steadily improving. Trade in woolen goods is quiet, but mills are busy. Hides continue firm, con- sidering the season. Leather is quiet and irregular. Failures for the week numbered 244 in the United States against 259 last year, and 25 in Canada compared with 25 a year ago.” MARE ETS. PITTSBURG. Grain, Flour and Feed.

It is understood that Denver, Col. will be selected as the site for the Army and Navy Hospital, which the Federal Government will erect for consumptives, and for which an ap- propriation of $50,000 has been set aside. The majority of the commis- sion in charge favors Denver, al- though two members advocated some site in Arizona. Farming as it is carried on now- adays is as much of a science as most of what are termed the learned pro- fessions, for the crops do not depend so much upon the kind of soil of the farm as they do upon the kind of man that is running the farm, opines the New York Weekly Witness. The far- mer must have brains, and plenty of them, for it is just as necessary to use brain power in working the soil as it is to use a fertilizer of some sort in the soil WOCD IN PAPER MAKING. Spruce and Hemlock Pulp Take the Place of Rags. “Perhaps the first way wood was used to communicate thoughts, or as a means of keeping records, was in the olden days when travelers through the forests chipped the trees and made marks on the wounded spot so they could trace their way back,” said Charles Kieren. “Today necarly all the paper used for correspondence, legal and busi- ness records, is made out of wood. The day of rags for papermaking has passed, for it not only is easier, but cheaper, to make all grades of wood pulp, and the laiter produces by far the better results. “Spruce and hemlock are the best woods for paper making. The first yields the strongest fiber, but the latter makes the whitest paper. Even papyrus is made of wood pulp, but we have found it too expensive to make any quantity of that grade, for it takes a special process and the mills have to run at a reduced speed. While you might think that any cull wood could be used in the making of paper, it is not so. Of course, choice logs that would make good lumber are not required, but the wood has to be selected with much care. “If the fiber is in the least de- cayed, it is of no use for the mak- ing of pulp. But the day of picking over filthy rags gathered from the streets is past. Where mills that use rags have to employ 100 girls for sorting, a wood pulp mill can turn out 30 tons of paper a day with a work- ing force of only 30 men.”—Milwau- kee Sentinel. Don’t Wait Too Long. Too many people ‘keep the flowers they have saved for you until the day of your funeral. Their songs of praise are not heard until your pro- cession is passing their door. The mantle of charity does not become public property until put in use by the preacher who conducts the “last sad rites.” If a man has flowers for me I want them while I am on earth and can smell their fragrance. They will do me no good sitting at the head of my coffin. The grass that is kept green about my last resting place will be of little avail to me on the other shore. Here is where I need the flowers and the smiles of praise, not over there. If the fellow who is going to go around to the house after 1 am gone to see “if he can be of any help” will come around to-morrow 1 can tell him how he can be of a whole lot of help. There will be plenty of hem, it is all-fired short now. Carry your flowers to the living and sing your songs of praise at the dinner ta- ble. Don’t wait for the funeral.— Ostorne, 0., Farmer.

One could find another cause of Japanese success, if the analytical probe is to be struck and the mystic impulse which gives men resolution for supreme sacrifice ignored. This ereat cause may be called originality. The record of superticial observers of her recent advance is that Japan to-day selfishly and slavishly reaps the val- ues wrung from time and chance through many centuries by other na- tions. If this be true, she is original enough to survive the ordeal of imi- tation.
