Dyspepsia of Women |
Caused by Female Disorders and Cured hy
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound
A great many women suffer with a
form of indigestion or dyspepsia which
does not seem to yield too: Es treat-
ment. While the symptoms seem to be
similar to those of ordinary indiges-
tion, yet the medicines universally pre-
scribed do not seem to restore the pa-
tient’s normal coadition,
Mrs. M. Wri oh !
Mrs. Pinkham claims that there 1s a
kind of dyspepsia that is caused by a
derangement of the female organism,
and which, while it causes a disturb-
ence similar to ovdinary indigestion,
cannot be relieved without a medicine
which not only acts as a stomach tonic,
buthasa ne tonic effect on the fe-
male organism.
As proof of this theory we call at-
tention to the case of Mrs. Maggie
Wright, Brooklyn, N. Y., who was
Sompletely. eured by Lydia E. Pink-
ham’s Vegetable Compound after every-
thing oy hed failed. ‘She writes:
“ For two years I suffered with dyspepsia
which so aia the entire that I
was unable to attend to my daily duties. I
felt weak and nervous, and potbing that I ate
and it caused a ce in my

to find that it acted like a fine tonic, and in a
fewdays I an to enjoy and properly dy est
my food. y recovery Was Ia in

ommended it to many suffering women.”
No other medicine in the world has
received such widespread and unquali-
filed endorsement or has such a record
of cures of female troubles, as hasLydia

Boiled Apples.
Place a layer, or two, if necessary,
of rather tart apples in a saucepan,
cover with cold water, let them come
guickly to the boiling point, then
cook slowly till tender. Remove to
dish, sprinkle thickly with sugar, and
pour over them the liquid remaining
in the saucepan. It is especially con-
venient to prepare apples in this way
when a' very hot fire is not required,
or when the oven is otherwise occu-
pied.
Flaky Puffs With Lemon Sauce.
‘Add to one cupful of boiling vater
one tablespoonful of butter, and
when the latter is melted mix in one
cupful! of flour. Beat these ingre-
dients with a fork until perfeetly
smooth and free from the sides of
the saucepan. Take from the fire
and drop in three eggs, one at a time,
whipping the mixture rapidly each
time an egg is put in. Stand until
cold and fry in very hot fat a spoon-
ful at a time, allowing about fifteen
minutes for each puff. Sprinkle with
powdered sugar and serve hot with
a sauce made as follows: Strain the.
juice of one and a half lemons and
add to it one cupful of powdered
sugar and half a cupful of boiling
water.
Currant Dumplings.
Chop fine half a pound of suet.
Put in a basin with four tablespoon-
fuls of flour, one pound of bread
crumbs, half a:pound sugar and half
a pound of ‘cleaned currants. Mix
these together well ‘and stir in three
cups of milk. Dip the centre of a
pudding cloth in boiling water, wring
out ' and dredge with flour. Now
spread the floured cloth over the top
of a basin, pour the dumpling into |
it, tie up with a piece of strong twine
and throw in boiling water. The
water must be boiling furiously be-
fore the pudding is thrown in, and |
half a teaspoonful of salt added. |
Cook steadily and evenly for three
hours.
the cloth and serve on a hot dish.
Rice Apple Pudding.
One-half cupful rice, three table-|
spoonfuls sugar, one-half tablespoon- |
ful butter, the juice of one-half
lemon. One full pint of thinly sliced
apples, one-half pint of milk and
three eggs. Put the apples in a dish,
pour over them the eggs and sugar,
and set aside. Place the rice in a
saucepan, cover with cold water and
boil five minutes. Drain rice, rinse
in cold water, return to the saucepan
and add the milk and butter. Set
saucepan in kettle of boiling water
and cook until rice is thick, occasion-
ally shaking the pan but not stirring.
Let it cool and mix with the three
yolks ‘and add whites, beaten stiff.
Butter a pudding dish and sprinkle
with bread crumbs, and put in rice
and apples in alternate layers. Bake
in a moderate oven about thirty min-
utes or until the pudding is firm to
the touch.
~ Serve with the syrup left from the
apples boiled up with a little more
sugar.

FINANCE AND TRADE REVIEW
IRON BUYERS EAGER TO ORDER
Give Up Hope of Better Terms and
Hasten to Purchase at Prevailing
Prices.
R. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review
of Trade says: Colder weather has
removed one of the drawbacks to
seasonable distribution of merchan-
dise, but there is still much complaint
of traffic conditions. Retail trade
shows improvement in nearly all sec-
tions and mercantile collections are
more prompt. Returns from the iron
and steel industry could not easily be
brighter. Primary receipts of wheat
are not in keeping with a maximum
crop on account of freight delays.
As the season advances with inereas-
ing urgency for delivery of iron and
steel, regardless of further advances
in prices, even the most conservative
purchasers give up hope of better
terms and are struggling to place con-
tracts before another fraction is add-
ed to the price or another month to
the remoteness of delivery. Spot
quotations for pig iron are really
nominal, because nothing is offered,
and very fancy prices wauld be paid
for billets that could be shipped im-
mediately. Foreign trade in this in-
dustry is large, despite domestic
needs.
After much irregularity wheat shows
a substantial advance for the week.
Flour output increased somewhat, but
it is still far behind the production a
year ago, and mills find profits cur-
tailed by the firmness of raw mater-
ial. Coarse. grains are less active
and fluctuate within narrow mar-
‘gins.

MAXIM OF
The American Inventor of a Famous
Gun and His Career.
The fierce, white-whiskered man,
with breast gleaming with orders,
representing the latest portrait of the
famous inventor and scientist, Sir
Hiram Maxim, would hardly be taken
for a native of Maine. Yet such is
the case, for he was born in Sanger-
ville, of the Pine Tree State, a little
over 66 vears ago. His Maxim gun
and ‘‘cordite,” a smokeless powder,
have made him world famous.
For the last ten years and more
Sir Hiram has devoted himself to at-
tempts to solve the problem of aerial
navigation. Like Santos-Dumont, he
early discarded the balloon and de-
votes all his energy to constructing
an aeroplane which can be propelled
with such velocity as to lift itself
and its navigator free from Mother
Earth. While the young Brazilian
has only succeeded in propelling his
aeroplane over a track which it al-
most clears, Sir Hiram, in speeding
over his track one morning, suddenly
found himself lifted clear -of the
ground and precipitated several yards
to the right. It was, perhaps, the
first instance in which a flying ma-
chine had actually lifted a human
being from terra firma,
MAINE
Artificial Changes Plants.
A recent scientific observation re-
lating to plant life indicates that ex-
ternal factors may have an important
bearing on the character of plants re-
produced from seed aside from the
qualities of the parent plants. Chemi-
cal stimulation of the reproductive
organs immediately previous to the
application of pollen has been noted
to exert a profound influence on here-
ditary qualities, resulting in seeds
producing plants entirely different
from the parent plant.
HARD TO SEE.
Even When the Facts About Coffce
Are Plain.
1t is curious how people will refuse
to believe what one can clearly see.
Tell the average man or woman
that the slow but cumulative poison-
ous effect of caffeine—the alkaloid in
tea and coffee—tends to weaken the
heart, upset the nervous system and
cause indigestion, and they may
laugh at you if they don’t know the
facts.
Prove it by science or by practical
demonstration in the recovery of
coffee drinkers from the above con-
ditions, and a large per cent. of the
human family will shrug their shoul-
ders, take some drugs and—Xkeep on

Literary People.
In driving through a certain part of
New England where a number of
writers have bought farms and made
their summer homes, I remarked to
a farmer's wife who lived in their
midst that there seemed to be a good
many literary people in that neigh-
borhood. “Yes,” she replied, with
a certain air of resignation, ‘‘there
are quite a few but we don’t mind
them.” I wish that 1 could quote the
tone of voice in which this remark
was made. It was that more than
the words—though the words are
amusing enough, particularly as
