She Re- fused; Cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Philadelphia, Pa.—*“One year ago I was very sick and I suffered with pains in my side and back until I nearly went crazy. 1 went to differentdoctorsand they all said I had fem: trouble and would not get any relief until I would be operated on. I had suffered for four glyears before this time,but I kept get- ting worse the more medicine I took. Every month since I was a young girl I had suffered with cramps in my sides at periods and was never regular. I saw your advertise- | ment in the newspaper and the picture | of a woman who had been saved from | an operation and this picture was im- pressed on my mind. The doctor had | given me only two more days to make up my mind so I sent my husband to the | drug store at once for a bottle of Lydia | E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound,and believe me, I only took four doses be- fore I felt a change and when I had fin- ished the third bottle I was cured and never felt better. I grant you the priv- ilege to publish my letter and am only too glad to let other women know of my cure.”’—Mrs. THOS.

It was decided to take this matter up at once with the railroad committee of the common council and recommend the work. As there are charter rights here, it is expectad that {it will not be long before the work | is under way. From this point the committee went to the new B. & K. factory building and looked over the territory. It was | decided to recommend the extension of the Chestnut street line through to Fairview street to Kelsey to Stanley to terminate at Ellis street near the factory building. The proposed extension of the Arch site was the final investigation of the day. Conditions at this point differ other two lines inasmuch that along con- siderable of the line which the pro- posed extension would cover there is a pond and in consequence there will never be any building. However, the committee has in mind a loop line which would have the extension pro- ceed through Linwood street to Win- throp and along that highway to Lin- jcoln street to the club. The latter | plan is to receive careful considera- tion from the committee. An invitation will be extended to Vice President I.. S. Storrs of the Connecticut company to come to thls city tomorrow and meet the commit- | tee to discuss the proposed extensions. { The aid of the railroad committee of | the common council will be secured by the committee, both to work in the interests of the extensions.

The American ton- nage to South America was 950,000, nearly flve times greater, and to Europe 1,100,000, two and a half times greater. Total clearances to France and Italy almost doubled; clearances to Norway, Denmark and Sweden more than doubled, and to Greece increased three fold.
