The trial trip announced for to-day of the airship of the Stanley Aerial Naviga- tion Company will not take place for two reasons; the airship is not finished and the three-quarter frame of it has struck a snag in the shape of an attachment in the Justices' Courts. Yesterday morning Attorney James P. Sweeney, representing Adolph Meyer, a lumber dealer, placed an attachment on the property of the Stanley Aerial Com- pany for two accounts of $278 and $65 re- spectively. Inventor Stanley and his assoclates were not dismayed by the appearance of a dep- uty sheriff with a Writ of attachment. ‘Work went on as usual at the old Velo- drome grounds on Baker street, and the deputy of Sheriff Lackmann learned a whole lot about aerial currents, wing force, depresslon and ascent, but nothing as to liquidating the bill of Lumber Mer- chant Meyer. Internal Trouble in Company. The alrship company has been in trou- First there as a difference of opinfon between Charles Newman of the Richelieu Cafe | and Inventor Stanley, Newman invested | §7300 in airship stock. Newman was also | secretary of tke aerial company and as | long as he held the position money was | s in the treasury. Newman drew out | months ago and sold the bulk of his | stock. He was succeeded by J. Albert Born as secretary. A few weeks ago | more trouble loomed up for the company. ‘ W. L. Harper, a stockholder, undertook to | sell some of his stock and Stanley claimed | that he had no right to do this. The re- sult was a lawsuit, which is now in the cour A stant Secretary Elmer T, Fentress | was perfectly candid in discussing the | affairs of the Stanley Aerial Navigation Company when seen yesterday. “We have put in about $25000 in the building of the ship,” he said, ‘‘and thi: attachment will not stop its completion. ‘We have been delayed by the non-arrival of a carload of aluminum and a shipment of sllk from the East, otherwise we would have had the ship ready for its trial as an- nounced. Newman drawing out of the: company has not affected us. He wanted | to boss the whole thing and Stanley would | not stand for it. We have only sold enough stock to “'“g us supplied with funds te carry on the building of the ship. ‘We hoped to make a sale this week of some stock and were disappointed. We | owe our employes for last week, their | salaries amounting to about $400. With | this lumber bill and a few other trade ac- counts, we owe about $600. Now that is | not going to swamp us.

Hard work for a weak woman is traffic in flesh and blood. It makes little difference what the field of work is, whether at home or elsewhere, if there is weakness, work brings exhaustion. Ability to stand the strain of hard work is the lege of the healthy and robust. How our hearts ache for the sickly women that work for daily bread at some ill-paid factory employment ! : How distressing also to see a woman struggling with her daily round of household duties, when her back and head are aching, and every new movement brings out a new pain ! If the mere looking on at these suffering women touches our hearts, how hopeless must life be to the wo- men themselves ? Their devotion to duty is a heroism which a well person cannot understand. Can these ailing, weak women, who are called upon to do work which would tire a strong man, be made to see that they can easily and surely better their condition ? Will not the volumes of letters from women made strong by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, convince them of the virtues of this medicine ? How shall the FACT that it WILL HELP THEM be made plain ¢ : ‘When a medicine has been successful in more than a million cases, is it justice to yourself to say, without trying it, ““I do not believe it would help me % Surely you cannot wish to remain weak and sick and discouraged, exhausted with each day’s work. You have some derangement of the feminine organism, and Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound will help you just as surely as it has others. Read the letters from women in the opposite column of this paper, and when you go to your drug store to buy this sterling medicine, do not let yourself be persuaded to accept the druggist’s own valueless preparation because if is a few cents cheaper than Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. $5000 REWARD privi- writers' special ‘I'm Simply Worn Out.”” | to person show that fbors m—nmnm all | Evidence of Mrs. Pinkham’s Cures. DEAR MRs. PINEHAM :—One year ago I read a letter in a paper tell- ing how much good one woman had derived from Lydia E. Pizkham’s Vegetable Compound. I had been sick all winter and was nearly discouraged, as the medicine the doctor gave me did me no good. I had kidney com- plaint, lencorrheea, itching, bearing-down feeling, and painful menstruation. I wrote to you deseri ing my trouble and soon received an answer telling me what todo. I followed your instruetions, and have taken nine bottles of Vegetable Compound and used one package of Sanative Wash and one /,} b:; of Lx]v;er Plillls. I am well now, do not have ose sick spells at the monthly period, but can & %/J R work all day, and that I never could do until I [R5 e e o106 /) began taking the Compound. I cannot praise the s ¢ Compound too highly. I do hope every suffering woman will learn of your remedies and be cured as I have been. I wish all success to the Compound; it has dome wonders for me and I am so thankful.”—MRS. GENIE KELLOGG, Ber- lin Heights, Ohio. ““ DEAR MRs. PiNgmAM:—I wish to let you know that Lydia E. Plnkhnm_'l Vegetable Compound has cured me of painful menszymuion from which I suffered terribly. I really believe that I would be insane to-day if it had not been for your medicine. I cannot praise your Com- pound enough, and feel that if all who suffer from female troubles would put themselves under your care and follow your advice they will find relief. —MISS K. E, SCHOLTES, Mt. Oliver, Pittsburg, Pa. “ DEAR MRs. PINEHAM :—For eight years I have suffered with inflam- mation of the womb and bladder, profuse and painful menstruation. and at times it seeme}l as though I should die. I doctored most of the time, but seemed to fail every year. A short time ago I began to take Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and, thanks to your wonderful medicine, I am to-day a well woman. Your medicine is woman’s best friend.”—MRS. L. L. TOWNE, Littleton, N. H. “DeAR MRs. PINEHAM:—I write this let: the benefit of poor, suffering women. Lydh"eir. %’rnmmt?.p‘\;m; Compound has done me a great deal of good. I have taken three bottles and feel like a new woman.

A few years ago I was pothing but a living skeleton. The doctor said my heart was the cause of all my sickness and that I could only be relieved, but never get well. Sometimes I would get so exhausted and short of breath that I would not know what to do. My nerves were very weak, blood impure.
