STOP WOMAN AND CONSIDER First, that almost every operation in our hospitals, perf upon women, becomes necessary because of neglect of such symptoms as Backache, Irregularities, Displace- ments, Pain in the Side, Dragging Sensations, Dizziness and Sleepless- ness. Second, that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made from native roots and herbs, has cured more cases of female ills than any other one medicine known, It reg- ulates, strengthens and restores women’s health and is invaluable in preparing women for child-birth and during the period of Change oO ite. Third, the great volume of unsolicited and grateful testimonials on file at the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn, Mass.. many of which are from time to time being published by special permission, give absolute evi- dence of the value of Lydia E, Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and Mrs. Pinkham’s advice. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound For more than 30 years has been curing Female Complaints, such as Dragging Sensations, Weak Back, Falling and Displacements, In- flammation and Ulceration, and Organic Diseases, and it dissolves and expels Tumors at an early stage. re Mrs, Pinkham’s Standing Invitation to Women Women suffering from any form of female weakness are invited to write Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass. foradvice.

GOLFER’S CURIOUS DRIVE. Playing From a Treetop—Ball That Bounded Back to Starting Point. An odd incident occurred on Satur- day during a match at the Golf Club de Paris, near Versailles, says the Pall Mall Gazette. Two players in the open amateur championship were at the fourteenth tee, when one sent his drive up a tree. The ball remained fixed between two branches; a caddie, climbing up, discovered its presence there. A great consultation arose as to what should be done. The committee was hastily summoned and stood be- neath the spreading branches of the tree, much in the fashion in which St. Louis dispensed justice in a primitive France. Evidently the ball was not out of bounds. Finally the judges de- | creed that either a new ball should be dropped on the tee, counting two, or the ball should be played from the spot. To save the point, the golfer bravely shinned up the tree and play- ed his ball from the embracing fork. | making, indeed, quite a good stroke. Later in the afternoon from the | Same tee I witnessed another curious incident. The player had driven, and his ball, striking the sand box of the ladies’ tee, fifty yards ahead, bounded back to its starting place. The player then drove into the bunker with his second shot, which is also something of a performance.

PAXTON CO., 41 amictod wiitt Thompson's Eye Water N W N U —NO 34— NORWAY. Iron ore has been discovered in Narvik, on the side of Mt. Fagerness, where the city of Fagerness lies. The vein runs from the Slotvik beach to Kleven, and is said to be quite rich. The ore has been purchased by the stock company, Salangen, for 410,000 crowns. es *¢ @ The mining industry in Norway has rapidly increased the past five years, especially in the Tromso district, which produced more minerals in 1905 than did the entire country from 1896 to 1900. Silver, iron, copper and sul- phur are the chief products of the mines of Norway. * * On account of a series of powerful articles that appeared in Morgenbladet of Christiania, negotiations looking to a settlement of the strike of the wood- workers of Norway have begun and the outlook is encouraging. Committees representing both sides of the contro- versy have been appointed to consider the differences leading to the walkout. -_* @ “Konow-Sagen” (the Konow case) continues to be a red hot topic of dis- cussion in the theologica] circles of Norway. Rey. Carl Konow began of- fending against the orthodox doctrines of his church, coming out squarely as a free lance in religious matters, but continued in his pastorate. The re- sult was that the society of ministers passed a resolution calling upon the church department of the government to remove him from his sacred office, and last month the department, having satisfied itself as to Konow’s heresy, demanded his resignation. But a re- port from Bergen, to the bishopric of which he belongs, says that Rev. Ko- now still stands firm and will not quit his pastorate voluntarily. Future de- velopments are awaited with lively in- terest. sf & The populotion of' Norway at the close of the year 1906 was 2,321,088— only 9,561 greater than at the close of the preceding year. The chief reason for this slight increase is ascribed to the emigration to America and other countries, but statistics show that it is also due to a decrease in the number of marriages.and births. From 1896 to 1900 the number of marriages aver- aged 14,795 each year. In 1904 and 1905 the number was only 13,481 and 13,269, respectively, though there was a slight increase in 1906. The number of births from 1896 to 1900 averaged 65,142 per year; in 1904 the number had fallen to 63,955, and in 1906 it was down to 60,851. The number of deaths from 1896 to 1900 averaged 33,589 per year; in 1904 it was 32,467; in 1905, 33,589; in 1906, 31.362. s * # Vise-Knute the Second has appeared in Norway. Vise-Knute (Wise Knute), as is well known, was a man gifted with six senses—the sixth being that of second sight, so that he could see things concealed from others—things far away, or lost, and things to come. He also had the power of healing and was sought by people from all parts of Norway and from abroad. He died about twenty years ago. The second Vise-Knute lives in Buda- len and is still only a lad of 13. The newspaper Mauren recently published a lengthy account of this latter day prodigy. It is said that he can see things that have been lost with the greatest ease and direct the owner where to find it. A calf disappeared and the owner wrote to the boy, whose name is John Flottum, asking him for assistance in finding it. The boy saw) clearly, by the help of his sixth sense —that of second sight—where the calf had gone and indicated the route it had taken on a piece of paper. The calf was traced and found. A stone, marking the boundary between two es- tates, had been covered and could not be found. John Flottum went to the spot immediately. A gold ring was lost in a moor at Aalen; John found it without the slightest difficulty. Other instances of a like nature are cited by the paper in question. The boy became aware of his re- markable powers a couple of months ago, while playing hide and seek with some companions. When he was to place his face in his hands behind a tree until the others had hidden them- selves, he discovered to his astonish- ment that he could see them cleariy and was obliged to give up the game. * *# * : SWEDEN. The well known Swedish explorer, Sven Hedin, has written to relatives in Stockholm that he is now in Shing- atse, Tibet, where he has been royally entertained by Taschi Lama, the ruler. Shigatse is a little city on the Brahamaputra sea, 130 miles southeast of Likasa, and was once known as the “forbidden city.” *- * @ A couple of weeks ago the laborers on the wharves at Norrkoping went on a strike, but the ship owners im- ported men from England to take their places, so that the transportation busi- ness continued without abatement. But on the 8th of this month a violent fight IN THE SCANDINAVIAN NORTH By MARTIN W.

It is believed that because of this the foreign laborers will return home, and unless the ship owners are able to set- tle with the strikers, trafic on th wharves will be tied up. : BABY TORTURED BY ITCHING.
