Since ttie assessable value of all property in the county has been doubled over that of last vear it was ex pected that many objecting property owners would apiiear. It is reported that the Southern Pacific Company will not fight its asaessment which has been so made Ibis year as to euual double that of a year ago. Assessor Nelson has this year listed the company's sidetracks snd other property that baa hertofore es caped the assessor. The aggregate of the assessment roll In this county this year will easily he double and even more than the roll ol a year ago. The following instances may be cited as illiHtrating I he extent to which the assessementa have been increased.

A distressing case of Fibroid Tumor, which baffled the skill of Boston doctors. Airs. Hayes, of Boston, Mass., in the following letter tells how she was cured, after everything else failed, by Lydia E Pinkham's Vegetable (impound Mrs. Hayes First Letter Appealing to Mrs. Pinkham for llelpt "Pear Mns. Pinkiiam: I have been under Uoston doctors' treat ment for a ions time without any relief. They tell me I have a fibroid tumor. I rannot sit down without great pain, and the soreness extends tip my spine. I have hearing-down pains both back and front. My ab domen is swollen, and I have had flowing spells for three years. My ap petite is not good. I cannot walk or lie ou my feet for any length of time. "The symptoms of Fibroid Tumor given in your little book-accurate lv dt'seril my case, so I write to you for advice." (Signed) Mrs K. F. IIayes, 2.V2 Dudley bt, (lloxbury) 15oston, Mass. Note the result of Mrs. Pinkham's advice al though she advised Mrs. Hayes, of Boston, to take her medicine which she' knew would help her her letter contained a mass of additional instruc tions as to treatment, all of which helped to bring about the happy result "Dear Mrs. Pixkiiax: Sometime ago I wrote to you describ ing my symptoms and asked your advice. You replied, and I followed all your directions carefully, and to-day I am a well woman. u The use of Lydia K. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound entirely expelled the tumor and strengthened my whole 6ystcin. I can walk miles now. "Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound is worth five dol lars a drop. I advise all women Avho are afflicted with tumors or female trouble of any kind to give it a faithful trial." (Signed) Mrs. E. F. Hayes, 252 Dudley ISt (Iioxbury) Boston, Mass. Mountains of jroldconld not purchase such testimony or take the phiee of the health and happiness w hich Lydia L Pinkham'g Vegetublc Compound brought to Mrs. IIayes. Such testimony should be accepted by all women as convincing evidence that Lydia K. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound stands without a peer as a remedy for all the distressing ills of women; all ovarian troubles; tumors; inflammations; ulceration, falling and dis placements of the womb; backache; irregular, suppressed or painful menstruation. Surely the volume and character of the testimonial let ters we are daily printing in the newspapers can leave no room for doubt. Mrs. Hayes at her above address will gladly answer any letter which sick women may write for fuller information about her illness. Her gratitude to Mrs. llnkham and Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is so genuine and heartfelt that she thinks no trouble is too great for her to take in return for her health and happiness. Truly is it said that it is Lydia E.
