THE DISCOVERER
Of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, the
Great Woman’s Remedy for Woman's Ills.
LYDIA E. PINKHAM
No other medicine for Woman's ills in the world has received such wide-
spread and unqualified endorsement.
No other medicine has such a record of cures of female illnesses or such
hosts of grateful friends as has Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
For more than 30 years it has been curing all forms of Female Complaints;
" Inflammation and Ulceration, and consequent Spinal Weakness.
It has cured more cases of Backache and Local Weaknesses than any othér
one remedy. It dissolves and expels tumors in an early stage of development.
Irregularities and periodical pains, Weakness of the Stomach, Indigestion,
Bloating, Nervous Prostration, Headache, General Debility quickly yield to it;
also deranged organs,
causing pain,
dragging sensations and backache.
Under all circumstances it acts in harmony with the female system.
It removes that wearing feeling. extreme lassitude, ‘‘don’t care” and
“want-to-be-left-alone”
ziness, faintness, sleeplessness, flatulency, melancholy or the ‘‘blues”.

These
are indications of Female Weakness or some derangement of the organs,
which this medicine cures as well as Chronic Kidney Complaints and
Backache, of either sex.
Those women who refuse to accept anything else are rewarded a hundred
thousand times, for they get what they want—a cure.

Power of New Warships.
Each Dreadnought shell weighs 850
pounds, is discharged by 265 pounds
of cordite, the most powerful explo-
sive known, and leaves the gun’s muz-
zle at a speed of 2,000 miles an hour.
That means a mile in 1 4-5 seconds.
If that shell kept up its initial velo-
city it would fly from England to New
York in an hour and a half, around
the world in 121% hours and to the
moon in five days. The sheli’s ener-
gy as it leaves the gun is equal to
the force required to pull 15 or 20
b0-car freight trains of 30 tons to each
car. A locomotive with such power
could draw a train of loaded freight
cars four miles long. Scientists say
that if all the Dreadnought’s guns
could be combined into one and fired
the projectile would never return to
the earth, but would revolve forever
about it as a tiny satellite. Single-
handed, such a warship as the Dread-
naught could have won the War of
1812. If the Confederates had had
just one Dreadnaught the Civil War
would have been prolonged many
years after the date which records
Lee's surrender at Appotomattox.—

Horse With Artificial Foot.
The veterinary profession is much
interested in a surgical operation
which has been accomplished by Pro-
fessor Udriski, one of the staff of the
veterinary school at Bucharest. Hav-
ing amputated a horse’s leg at the fet-
lock joint, after several failures he
succeeded in fitting a leather boot or
artificial leg that enabled the animal
to walk about and take exercise.

Must Have Been Rich, Even Then.
It happened about 44 years ago,
when Abraham Lincoln was nearly
suffocated with trouble New troops
were required and money needed.
Rockefeller, then a young man, had
not as yet been accused of being a
billionaire. He was strong for the
Union, however. His office was at
that time on River street, Cleveland.
Captain Soofield came in one day with
30 raw recruits. The young business
man saw what was needed, walked to
his small safe, took out a bag of real
money, giving to each man $10. When
outside one recruit remarked. ‘He
must be rich.” And another one
said, “Yes, they say he is a rich man
—that he is worth as much as $10,
000”’—Woman’s Home Companion.
Respect for German Policemen.
Herr Muerbe, a Dresden school-
master, on visiting Halle lately, went
up to a policeman, and touching his
hat, begged in a courteous tone to be
directed to his destination. The po-
liceman stared at him, and told him
that if he desired a reply he must
speak more respectfully—his interro-
gator must in fact take off his hat.
This was too much for Herr Muerbe,
who asked the policeman not to be
insolent. Legal proceedings followed,
and the Court has decided that, while
Herr Muerbe was not obliged to take
off his hat when addressing a police-
man, he must pay a fine of 10 marks
for using the word ‘‘insolent.”—Lon-

and who allow themselves to be imposed upon.
There are two classes of remedies; those of known qual-
ity and which are permanently beneficial in effect, acting
gently, in harmony with nature, when nature needs assist-
ance; and another class, composed of preparations of
unknown, uncertain and inferior character, acting tempo-
rarily, but injuriously, as a result of forcing the natural
functions unnecessarily.
One of the most exeeptional of
the remedies of known quality and excellence is the ever
pleasant Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California
Fig Syrup Co., which represents the active principles of
plants, known to act most beneficially, in a pleasant syrup,
in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are used to con-
tribute their rich, yet delicate, fruity flavor.
It is the remedy
of all remedies to sweeten and refresh and cleanse the system
gently and naturally, and to assist one in overcoming consti-
pation and the many ills resulting therefrom. Its active prinei-
ples and quality are known to physicians generally, and the
remedy has therefore met with their approval, as well as with
the favor of many millions of well informed persons who knew
of their own personal knowledge and from aetual experience
that it is a most excellent laxative remedy. We do not claim that
it will cure all manner of ills, but recommend it for what it really
represents, a laxative remedy of known quality and excellence,
containing nothing of an objectionable or injurious eharacter.
There are two classes of purchasers; those who are informed
as to the quality of what they buy and the reasons for the excellence
of articles of exceptional merit, and who do not lack courage to go
elsewhere when a dealer offers an imitation of any well known
article; but, unfortunately. there are some people who do not know.
They eannot expect
its beneficial effects if they do not get the genuine remedy.
To the credit of the druggists of the United States be. it said
that nearly all of them value their reputation for professional
integrity and the good will of their customers too highly to offer
imitations of the

New Japanese Fad.
Many Christmas cards sent out by
leaders of society were imported from
Japan. The Japanese card fad is
growing and there is a chance that the
Orientals may create a charming re-
volution in the bits of engraved paste-
board. The visiting cards that Japan
is sending to New York show the per-
fection of simplicity. They are some-
what smaller than those which fashion
has demanded over here. They are
pearly white in hue. In the left hand
corner is an exquisite little painting
executed with much skill of quaint,
idyllic pictures of birds, animals and
flowers. And the cards have the su-
preme merit in many women’s eyes—
they are expensive. How pleasant it
will be for them to say, ‘I have sent
to the Far East for my new visiting
cards!”

master of Indianola, now living at
Austin, Texas,

and neura.gia.
My right ' eye,
from pain, was
of little use to
me for yrars. The constant flow of
arine kept my system depleted, caus-
ing nervous chills and night sweats.
After trying seven different climates
and using all kinds of medicine I had
the good fortune to hear of Doan’s

me. I am as well to-day as I was
twenty years ago, and my eyesight is

Ancient Glass Mirrors.
An American scientist has lately
interested the French Academy of
Sciences in his researches concerning
the glass mirrors that were used in
ancient times in Thrace and Egypt.
These mirrors were backed with a
highly: polished metal, the nature of
which has been in question for many
years. The American scientist has
discovered that the metal was almost
pure lead, and he believes that the
method of manufacture was to pour
the molten lead on the concave sur-
face of discs cut from balloons of
blown glass. In consequence of their
shape the mirrors minimized the
images of objects looked at in them.—

Always to Be Depended Upon.
When a person gets up in the morning
with a dull headache and a tired, stretchy
feeling, it is an almost certain indication
that the liver, or bowels, or both, are de-
cidedly out of order.
At such times .Nature, the wisest and
best of all ‘doctors, takes this means to
give warning that she needs the help and
gentle assistance which can best be ob-
tained from that old family remedy, Brand-
reth’s Pills, which has fo in use for
over a century.
" They are the same fine laxative tonie
pill your grandparents used, when doctors
were few and far between and when peo-
ple had to have a remedy that could ab-
solutely be depended upon.
Brandreth’s Pills can be depended upon
and are sold in every drug and medicine

The Fate of the Chamois.
Switzerland is awakening to the
necessity of government intervention
if the chamois is not to become as
extinct in the Alps as the buffalo in
America. In the Grisons the killing
of chamois was prohibited last year.
Shooting licenses have been issued
this year, but next year again will be
a close year, and so will 1909. Police
reports show that between 1875 and
1905 the number of chamois slaugh-
tered in the canton reached the huge
total of 34,308. If the 5,000 chamois
still surviving in the Grisons are to be
preserved, and if the animal is not to
be lost in other cantons, something
more than alternate close years will
be needed. When the sportsman took
the risks of the rocks and went to
shoot his chamois fer food where he’
found him there was no danger of ex-
termination. It is the safer but more
cruel system of ‘“drives’’ which .caus-
es whole herds to be shot down at
once.— New York Tribune.
Indian’s Word Was Good.
Indian devotion to a pledge is not a

Boling pleaded guilty before Judge
Parker at Sallisaw. He was sentenc-
ed to 60 days in the county jail and
to pay a fine of $25. He asked to be
permitted to stay out of jail and make
a crop in order to provide for his
family, and Judge Parker granted the
request, releasing Boling, who is a
Cherokee, on a promise to appear at
Vinita on December 1 to begin his
sentence. Boling was waiting at the
Court - House one morning last week
when the doors were opened and is
now in jail serving his sentence. He
says his crop is gathered, and his
family is provided for during the
winter.— Kansas City Journal.

SCALY ERUPTION ON B29Y.
Doctors and Remedies Fruitless—Sufe
fered 10 Years—Compietely Cured }
by Three Boxes of Cuticura.
“When I was about nine years old smalf
sores appeared on each of my lower limbs,
I scratched them with a brass pin, and
shortly afterwards both of those limbs b&r
came so sore that I could scarcely walk,
When I had been suffering for about
month the sores began to heal, but small,
scaly eruptions appeared where the sores
had been. From that time,onward 1 was
troubled by such severe itching that, until
I became accustomed to it, I would scratch
the sores until the blood began to flow.
This would stop the itching for a few
days, bus scaly places would appear again
and the itching would accompany them,
After I suffered about ten years I made w»
renewed effort to effect a cure. The erup-
tions by this time had appeared on every
part of my body except my face and
hands. The best doctor in my native
county advised =te to use arsenic in small
doses and a salve. 1 them used to bathe
the sores in a mixture which gave almos$
intolerable pain. In addition I used otheg
remedies, such as iodine, sulphur, zine
salve, — 's Salve, ——— Ointment, and
in fact I was continually giving some rem-
edy a fair trial, never using less than one
or two boxes or bottles. All this was
fruitless. Finally my hair began to fall
out and 1 was rapidly beeoming bald. IX
used 's —, but it did no good.
A few months after, having used almost
everything else, 1 thought I would try,
Cuticura Ointment, having previously used
Cuticura Soap and being pleased with it,
After using three boxes I was completely,
cured, and my hair was restored, after
fourteen years of suffering and un expens
diture of at least $50 to $60 in vainly ene
deavoring to find a cure. I shall be glad
to write to any one who may be interested
in my cure. B. Hiram Mattingly, Vere
