St. Paul, Minnesota WOMEN’S NEGLE SUFFERING THESUREPENALTY «i | Health Thus Lost Is Restored by Lydia E Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. How many women do you khow who are perfectly well and strong? We hear every day the same story over and over again, ‘Ido not feel well; Lam so tired all the timet” : "MA = G Miss KateM:Donala More than likely you speak the same words yourself, and no doubt you feel far fromwell. Thecause may be easily traced to some derangement of the fe- male organs which manifests itself in depression of spirits, reluctance to go anywhere or do anything, backache, bearing-down pains, flatulency, nerv- ousness, sleeplessness, or other fe- male weakness. These symptoms are but warnings that there is danger ahead, and unless . | heeded a life of suffering or a serious operation is the inevitable result. ‘The never. failing remedy forall these symptoms is Lydia E. Pinkham’s Veg- etable Compound. Miss Kate McDonald of Woodbridge, N. J., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham: “ Restored health has meant so much to me that I cannot help from telling about it for the sake of other suffering women. “For a long time I suffered untold agony with a female trouble and irregularities, which made me a physical wreck, and no one thought I would recover, but Lydia E. Pink- ham’s Vegetable Compound has entirely cured me, and made me well and strcng, and I feel it my duty to tell other suffering women what a splendid medicine it is.” For twenty-five years Mrs. Pinkham, daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham, has under her direction, and since her decease, been advising sick women free of charge. Her advice is free and always helpful. Address, Lynn, Mass.

GOOD LUCK, BUT NO FISH. Governor Russell’s Query Came at Just About Right Time. One afternoon, some years ago, the late Governor Russell, of Massachu- setts, put out from Cedar Grove lodge to enjoy a few hours’ fishing on Ponk- apoag pond. Down at the other end of the pond was a boat containing Willard G. Brown, of Rardolph, and a “What Luck?” party of fishermen friends who were unaware of his excellency’s presence. Brown’s party having been out all day without getting a bite, some one suggested a little game of “seven up.” So they seated themselves in the bot- tom of their boat, which was a typical Ponkapoag craft, built on the mud scow pattern, and the game was on. After playing for some time they noticed a strange boat approaching, and one of its ocupants, who was leveling a field glass at them, was heard to exclaim: “Those fellows must have struck a school. They’ve been cleaning fish ever since we came out.” : As soon as the boats were within hailing distance Governor Russell in- quired, “What luck?” to which Brown replied: “Talk about luck! I just begged on the ace and deuce of trumps, and made high, low, jack, gift, game and all the trimmings!” LEFT HIM WITHOUT FEELING. Remarkable Effect of Operation for Tic Doloureux. “The red-hot wire,” said the electri- cian, “burned the man’s cheek till it sizzled and smoked. Yet he never moved out of the way. He continued to laugh and joke and pull on his clay pipe, and the smell of burning rose into the air. I pulled him_to..one side. “‘Would you stand there,’ I said, ‘and be burned to death?’ “Was I burning?’ he said, with a scared look. And he put his hand to the side of his face—the wrong side. Was it possible that he couldn't feel that horrible hurt? Gentlemen, that man had no feeling in his face whatever. He told me that he had been operated on for tic doloureux, and the operation, while it cured the tic, had left his face dead to all sensation. I had often read of tic doloureux in English novels, but I thought it was a trifling disease. This chap said it was a facial neuralgia so painful that 90 per cent. of its victims either went crazy or killed themselves in the past, but now there is an op- eration that gives relief. Every vi tim of tic undergoes the operation. Hence there are a lot of people walk- ing the earth with no feeling in their faces. The condition is a dangerous one, because you are liable to get hurt without knowing it.” GATHERED FROM THE SEA. Annual Seaweed Harvest of Much Value to Channel Islanders. In the Channel islands, the annual seaweed harvest is a very important affair. The seaweed, some 100,000 tons of it, is plowed into the fields as a fertilizer; it is also dried and used as fuel in the cottages, the ash selling readily as a dressing for cornfields. When the time—regulated by law— arrives for cutting the long weed from the rocks, all the people, men, women and children, turn out, armed Gathering the Seaweed. with sxort sickles, knives, rakes, forkes, and so forth. Carts with sides formed of hurdles are used for bring- ing in the weed, the sea water thus draining away as the vehicles bump along. At the ebbing of the tide, men go out in boats and cut the weed from the more distant rocks. Any weed cut that cannot be gathered before the tide rises is anchored with large stones. “Vraicking,” as this annual seaweed- gathering is termed, is real hard work; but the return of the long line of carts, each heaped high, is hailed by the toilers as a veritable harvest home. “A NERVOUS WRECK Mrs. Green Gained 26 Pounds and Recovered Her Health by Taking Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. General debility is a term that covers @ multitude of cases where there is no acute disease, yet the patient continues to lose strength and the doctor’s medi- cines have uo apparent effect. This is the decline that leads to death if means are not found to check it. In a great majority of cases Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills will check it and restore health and strength because they actually make hew blood and so send renewed vitality to every organ and tissue of the body. Mrs. S. A. Green, whose address is Box 29, R. F. D. No. 4, Franklin, Ga., says: “For three and a half years I suffered with weakness and nervous- ness, complicated with stomach trouble. At times I was confined to my bed for periods ranging from three weeks ti months and was under the ph; care most of the time for three years. I do not know the cause of my trouble but I was prostrated with weakness and, al- | though I took a great deal of medicine, nothing seemed to give mestrength. At times my stomach hurt me something fearful and my head often troubled me. I was sleepless and what sleep I did get did not refresh me. ‘When I began taking Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, I weighed but 104 pounds. I knew I was so bad that a few doses would not cure me and I had patience. Soon the pills began to give me strength, my blood got in better condition, I could sleep wellat night and help some with the housework. Now I weigh 130 poundsand think nothing of walking half a mile. | Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills have done won- ders for me and the neighbors all know this statement is true.’ Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are sold by all druggists, or will be sent by mail, post- paid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per box, six boxes $2.50, by the Dr. Williams Med- icine Co., Schenectady, N.Y.
