iv \' How an s in the Fallo- pian Tubes of Mrs. Hollinger was removed without a surgical operation. “I had an abscess in my side in the fallopian tube (the fallopian tube is a connection of the ovaries). I suffered untold misery and was 80 weak I could scarcely get around. The sharp burning pains low down in my side were terrible. My physi- cian said there was no help for me unless I would go to the hospital and be operated on. I thought before that I would try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound which, fortunately, I did, and it has made me a stout, healthy woman. My advice to all women who suffer with any kind of female trouble is to commence taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound at once.” — Mrs. Ina S. HoLuinaer, Stilvideo; Ohio.— $5000 forfeit if original of above letter proving genuineness cannot be produced.

I'have been waiting for you.” “Why ,how is that?” exclaimed the visitor. “I came out here to look for a 5-cent carriage.” “Oh, if that’s the case, you'll find them over there,” added the cabby, pointing to the trolley cars, “but I'll carry you more comfortably and it’ll only cost you a quarter.” “Well, if that’s the case, and you’ve been waiting for me, I would be sorry to disappoint you, and I guess I’ll have to let you take me up in the town,” and the visitor climbed into the hack, while the bright cabby cracked his whip gleefully as he rattled up the street.—New York Times.
