When Vou Sneese
The alurui signal of a draft Is a
snoeze, which la a spasmodic effort of
nature to start up the circulation and
relievo the congestion. A person may
be far gone toward contracting a cold
before he sneezes, but the moment he
gets this warning he should change his
position, look around for the draft and
move out of It or protect himself
against It. A draft Is something to be
sneezed nt and to be avoided. Drafts
cause more deaths than war, whisky,
football, consumption and yellow fever
put together. Almost everybody who
dies from disease dates his sickness
from taking cold. This is especially
true of elderly people. Yet It Is a mat
ter In regard'to which there are groat
, ignorance and inattention. . ,

A TRAINED NURSE
After Years of Experience, Advises Women In
Regard to Their Health.
Mrs, Martha Fohlman
of 65 Chester Avenue,
Newark, N. J,, who is a
graduate Nurse from the
11 look ley Training School,
at Philadelphia, and for
b!x years Chief Cllnlo
Nurse at the Philadelphia
Hospital, writes the letter
printed below. She has
the advantage of personal
experience, besides her
professional education,
and what sho has to say
may be absolutely relied
upon.
Many other women are
afflicted as she was. They
can regain health in the
same way. It is prudent
to heed such advice from
such a Bourco.
Mrs. Poh 1 man writes:
" I am firmly persuaded,
after eight yeara of experience
with Lyilia E. Pinkham's
Vecfotablo Compound, that it
is the safest and best medicine
for any suffering woman to
use."
" Immediately after my
marriage I found that my
health began to fail me. I be
came woak and pale, with
severe bearing-down pains,
fearful backaches ana fre
quentdizzyspells. The doctors
prescribed for me, yet I did
not improve. I would bloat
after eating, and frequently
become nauseated. I had
pains down through my limbs so I could
hardly walk. It was as bad a case of female
trouble as I have ever known. Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, however,
cured me within four months. Since that
time I have had occasion to recommend It to
a number of patients suffering from all
forms of female difficulties, and I find that
while it is considered unprofessional to rec
ommend a patent medicine. I can honestly
recommend Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, for I have found that It cures
female Ills, where all other medicine fails. It
Is a grand medicine for sick women."
Money cannpt buy auch testimony as
this merit alone can produce snoh re
suits, and the ablest specialists now
agree that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound is the most univer
sally successful remedy for all female
diseases known to medicine.
When women are troubled with ir
