If a person is ill am! needs a medi
cine U it not wise to get one that has
stood the test of time and has hun
dreds of thousands of cures t Its
credit ?
A great many women who are ill try
everything they hear of in the way of
medicine, and this experimenting with
unknown drugs is a constant menace
to their already impaired health.
This seems to us very unwise, for
there are remedies which are no ex
periments and have been known years
and years to be doing only good.
Take for instance Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound; for thirty
years its record has been one un
broken chain of success. No medicine
for female ills the world has aver
known has such a record for cures.
It seems so strange that some people
wiU take medicines about which they
really know nothing, some of which
might be. and are, really harmful ;
while on the other hand it is easily
proved that over one million women
have been restored to health by Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
We have published in the news
papers of the United States more
genuine testimonial letters than have
ever been published in the interest of
any other medicine.
All this should, and does, produce a
spirit of confidence in the hearts of
women which is difficult to dislodge,
and when they are asked to take some
thing else they say, " No, we want
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, which has been tried, and
De ver found wanting, whose reliability
la established far beyond the experi
mental stage."
We have thousands of letters like the
following addressed to Mrs. Pink ham,
ihowing that
Monthly Suffering is Al
ways Cured by Lydia Em
Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, also Back
ache and Bearing-down
pains.
"I suffered untold agony every
month and could get no relief until I
tried your medicine ; your letter of ad
vice and a few bottles of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound have
made me the happiest woman alive. I
shall bless you as long as I live." Miss
J OLE Saul, Dover, Mich.
. " Four years ago I had almost given
up hope of ever being well again. I
was afflicted with those dreadful head
ache spells which would sometimes
last three or four days. Also had
backache, bearing-down pains, leucor
rhcBa, dizziness, and terrible pains at
monthly periods, confining me to my
bed. After reading so many testi
monials for your medicine, 1 concluded
to try it. I began to pick up after
taking the first bottle, and have con
tinued to gain rapidly, and now feel
like a different woman. I can recom
mend Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound in the highest terms to all
ick. women." Miss Rosa Hei.den,

Two Letters whloh Prove
that Lydia . Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound Will
Remove Tumor and Cure
Other Female Weakness.
" Two years ago I was a great
lufferer from womb trouble and pro
fuse flowing each month, and tumors
would form in the womb. I had four
tumors in two years. I went through
treatment with doctors, but they did
me no good, and I thought 1 would
have to resort to morphine.
" The doctor said that all that could
help me was to have an operation and
have the womb removed, but I had
heard of Mrs. Pinkham's medicine and
decided to try it, and wrote for her
advice, and after taking her Vegetable
Compound the tumors were expelled
and I began to get stronger right
along, and am as well as ever before.
Can truly say that I would never had
gotten well had It not been for Lydia
E. Pinkham's Compound." Maby A.
Stahi,, Watson town. Pa.
" After following the directions
given in your kind letter for the treat
ment of leucorrhea, I can say that I
have been entirely cured by the use
of Lydia E. Pinkham's remedies, and
will gladly recommend them to my
friends." A. B. Davids. B)nghamton,

Another Oaae of Womb,
Kidney and Bladder
Trouble Cured by Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound.
" Dear Frikkd Two years ago I had
child-bed fever and womb trouble in
its worst form. Foreight months after
birth of babe I was not able to sit up.
Doctors treated me, but with no help.
I had bearing-down pains, burning in
stomach, kidney and bladder trouble
and my back was stiff and sore, the
right ovary was badly affected and
everything I ate distressed me, and
there was a bad discharge.
" I was confined to my bed when I
wrote to you for advice and followed
your directions faithfully, takiog
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, Liver Pills and using the Wash,
and am now able to do the most of my

WHY THE riAIR FALLS OUT.
Scientific 1 xplauati n of the Reason
tor lalunesa.
"The popular explanation of the rea
son why men are bald, why their hair
falls out move than women, Is because
women do not wear closely fitting hats
as men, and consequently the air cir
culates more freely in the hair, cools
the scalp, thereby tending to keep the
hair in a healthy condition," said a
prominent Washington skin specialist.
"This theory is a deep-rooted one, but
is only partially true. I will tell you
the fundamental reason. It Is not gen
erally known that the skin of a woman
tits differently over the cranium than
that of a man. Beneath the cuticle on
a woman's cranium Is a thin layer of
adipose tissue, or "fat," about a six
teenth of an inch in thickness. This
layer of fat is not present on the cran
ium of a man. His cuticle tits and
draws tightly over the skull.
"The result is that the cuticle on a
man's cranium atrophies, or dries and
withers quicker than that on a wom
an's. His hair does not receive the
nourishment that is imparted to the
hair of a woman by reason of the layer
of adipose tissue, and the result is that
his hair becomes more readily dry and
diseased, falls out. and baldness ulti
mately ensues. A bald woman is a rarity.
If the cuticle of a woman's head fitted
as tightly as that of a man a baldhead
ed woman would be a common sight.
Wouldn't they be funny objects? Ough!
"There Is not one woman in a million
that knows that nature was kind to
her In the manner I have mentioned;
in fact, it is not known outside of the
medical profession, and In the profes
sion not sufficient Importance is at
tached to it in treating diseases of the
scalp. It also furnishes an explana
tion as to 'why women can go aroiinff
In the winter time with a postage
stamp for a hat and not take 'cold.' It is
not altogether because their hair is
thick and long, but because the extra
layer of Tat imparts to the head of a
woman a warmth that Is not furnished
to the cranium of a man. This Is a sci
entific explanation which I do not re
call reading In the public prints."

Of the 53.000,000 square miles which
the world's land surface comprises, 40,
000,000 are more or less continuously
; subject to the scourge of the hungry
locust. It causes, we are told, more
pecuniary loss and misery than a na

' combined, or, for that matter, a greater
loss than a war between England and
the South African republics. Thus the
question of fighting the locust is one
of the gravest importance. London

Neatest Town in the World.
Broek, in Holland, is far-famed as
the "neatest town in the world." This
town is so fastidious that until a few
years ago horses were not allowed In its
streets, for reasons of cleanliness, and
the entire town is as scrupulously kept
as a man-of-war. It is a village of
2,700 inhabitants,- the main industry of
which is the making of Edam cheese.
A UNIQUE SHOE INDUSTRY.
Rise of the Jewish Scrny and "cc-
ond-" Hnycr.
The "ghetto," the home of a mixed
mass of humanity, presents a remark
able and unique phase of S'ew York
shoe selling. Petty shoemakers visit
the numerous city shoe factories daily
and buy up scraps and "seconds" of all
kinds of leather, which they take to
their homes, and, after being inspected
and assorted by the entire family, it
is finally made into pierced backs and
wedge heels in black, tan, patent leath
er and numerous odd combinations,
every inch of leather being utilized. A
steady worker turns out at least twenty-four
pails of these shoes, working
from 7 a. m. until late into the night.
In the meantime the thrifty wife puts
the finished product into a clothes bas
ket and, taking a stool, stations herself
at the prominent corner of Hester and
Essex streets, right In the heart of the
"ghetto." Here activity reigns, thou
ands upon thousands of wage earners
swarm through the streets; the venders
loudly cry their wares to attract the
attention of bargain seekers.
After a day of bantering and talking
the woman has disposed of her shoes
and goes home with an empty basket
and a pocketful of small change. After
many weeks of this routine the econom
ical shotmaker has saved enough to
realize an ambition and he buys a push
cart a two-wheeled affair much like
the familiar frultman's cart and with
shoes bought at fire sales he pushes
boldly into some crowded thoroughfare
and lines up against the curb. A tempt
ing price loudly proclaimed serves to
dispose of the stock as often as he can
replenish the same. Under these cir
cumstances the meager capital has in
creased sufficiently to enable him to
open a small shoe store in Hester
street and to employ an assistant. He
searches wholesale shoe houses for.
odds and ends, damaged and mismated
shoes, and picks up numerous lots for a
fraction of their value.
He has now assumed the dignity of a
merchant and has gained the confi
dence of his countrymen. Encouraged
by his success and confident of his abil
ity, he buys in larger lots and begins
to supply other push-cart dealers. The
demand eventually assumes greater
proportions; he attends auction sales;
which are very frequent in New York,
and realizes profit from every .venture.
In the course of a few years his envi
ronments become too small, he disposes
of his push cart and rents a basement
in Bayard street, among the East Side
shoe jobbers. New York Tribune.
MONEY IN OLD TIN CANS.
Refuse from the City Becomes a Klon
dike for Two Mechanics.
Down on the South Side of Chicago,
near Seventy-ninth street and Yin
cennes avenue; there is a Klondike dis
:overed and worked to Its utmost ca
pacity by two bright young mechanics.
Out toward Englewood, near the
tracks of the Chicago. Rock Island and
Pacific Railroad, half a stone's throw
from Seventy-ninth street, can be seen
an immense quantity of old tin cans
piled into hills of very decent propor
tions. There are hills of tomato cans, min
iature mountains of peach and pear
;ans, mounds of milk cans, cans from
far-off France, that were once filled
with delicate truffles' cans that were
once ready to burst with the luscious
fruits which California sends to less
favored States, oil cans, old kitchen
pots and pans, all gathered up from
one end of the city to the other, and
from hotel garbage boxes.
The assay office of this "tin-can
Klondike" is near by in a little 16x20
foot frame building, used also as store
bouse for refined metal.
The factory itself is half a block
further down toward Eighty-first
street. "
These old cans are placed in a fu
nace and brought to a red-hot heat
by a rousing fire under them, which
melts the solder and zinc or "spelter,"
these sinking to the bottom of the pot,
while the tin remains on top.
The solder or "spelter" is ladled out
and cast into bars, in which form it
finds its way to the metal market;
while the tin is run out into frames
and rolled Into sheets of various sizes,
and sent to the stock yards and other
factories, .where they are made over.

Disease in Fishes.
That fishes are liable to disease of
various kinds is well known. There is
the "salmon disease," caused by the
growth of a fungus on the fish, and
many parasites that are "unbidden
guests" find a home on the bodies of
the finny tribe lodgers .or boarders
that pay no rent, and cause disease
In addition. But it is something new
to learn that fishes can be infected
with tuberculosis that general dis
ease of which consumption Is a man
ifestation in the lungs. Into a pond in
France tuberculous matter from a pa
tient was thrown. The fishes carps
were afterwards noted to die. and the
germs of bacilli of consumption were
found in plenty in their bodies; while
when these bacilli of the fishes were
given to other fishes, they proved fatal
In the same way. There Is one comfort
given to us, however, by the French
experimenters. It seems that in the
fish, a cold-blooded animal, the germs
fall off in their vitality, so that it Is
unlikely they would affect. man or oth
er warm-blooded animals.
Bishops Take Umbrellas.
The Athenaeum of London is a very

appointing summer, and one of Lord
Salisbury's secretaries observed that
his chief was starting out for his lunch
eon at the Athenaeum; he rushed for
the umbrella and offered It to Lord Sal
isbury. "No, no," said Lord Salisbury,
"I've lost too many in the Athenaeum.

Philip Drank and Philip Sober.
The saying orginated from an inci
dent in the life of Philip II., king of
Macedon, the father of Alexander the
Great. Philip was undoubtedly a great
man; but all men, great and small,
have their weaknesses, and he 'was a
great drunkard. One day, when rising
flushed from his wine, be was called
upon to decide a lawsuit, and in his
bibulous condition be decided it un
justly, whereupon the losing party
cried: "I shall appeal against your
judgment." "Appeal!" thundered
the euraged king; "and to whom will
you appeal?" "To Philip sober," was
her reply. The wisdom of the appeal
was justified by the result, for when
Philip had become sober he discovered
his mistake and reversed his judgment.
