H fti2 ! tS3 DD r1 Ualh with j7fBnmxsnd If a person is ill and needs a medi cine is it not wise to get one that has stood the test of time and has hun dreds of thousands of cures to 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 instanoe 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 ever known has such a record for cures. It seems so strange that some people ! wim 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 nve been restored to health by Lydia . 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 ipirit of confidence in the nearts 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 never found wanting, whose reliability established far beyond the experi mental stage." We have thousands of letters like the following addressed to Mrs. Pink ham, showing that Monthly Suffering is Al ways Cured by Lydia Em Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, also Back aohe and Bearing-down nalnsm "I suffered untold agony every month and could get no relief until I tried your medicine; your letter of ad rice and a few bottles of Lydia E.

Also had backache, bearingdown pains, leucor rhcea, dizziness, and terrible pains at monthly periods, confining me to my bed. After reading so many testi monials for your medicine, I 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.

I was seated in the comer of a car, When I got a most excruciating jar Not the ordinary kind To which gripmen are inclined, But a jolt that shocked me more than that by far. From adown the aisle a fascinating girl Set my senses in an amatory whirl, When she turned a pretty smile Toward my corner, and the while Showed the tips of teeth that glistened as the pearl. - 1' responded with a twinkle of my eye CTis a little trick I studied, by the by), And although I passed my street, Still I kept my corner seat. For the hope within my heart was run ning high. Thru it was I got the dolorific jar; Just behind me, on the platform of the car, Stood the man at whom, 'twas plain, She was smiling through the pane, And I'd ridden half a mile or more too far. -Life A Walk with Ishbel. DON'T mind talking to you, you know," said Ishbel she Insists ou being spelled that way "because you are not a stupid boy and you have a nice detached point of view, but you must promise when I tell you things not to Imagine I mean myself." "How could I Imagine you a thing?" I asked reproachfully. "You know what! mean," said Ish bel with severity. "When I whs quite young," she pursued she Is 22 "I used to fancy that authors put themselves into their stories. Now I know they never do." ".Well, I am not quite young," I said crossly. "Go on." "But you didn't promise." "I promised." Ishbel adjusted her hatpin. "Once there was a girl," she began, "who at the age of 17 was sent to Englnud to visit her father's people. That's rather a nice beginning, Isn't It?" she Inter rupted herself. "It sounds as if It might be print. Do you think If you saw a story with a beginning like that you would read it?" "Candidly?" I inquired. "Of course." "I don't think I should." There was a dangerous glitter in her eye. "But," I hastened to add, "reading a story is very different to have you tell it, you know. I could listen to you for a thousand years." She was mollified. "It won't take that long," she assured me with a smile, There is no word for her smile but jle liclous. ' "Do go on," I - "Did she like the poop''"" "Well, . some of them," doubtfully. "You see they were English and she was an American." "Yes." "And and young, they bullied her a little.

"I don't fancy they will." "And so you see she didn't have as good a time as she might exactly. But she did have a love affair." "Oh," said I. "Yes," snld Ishbel. "He was a sort of distant connection of hers, a lawyer, what they tall over there a solicitor, you know. He she said he was very much in love and so was she." "Confound" I began. "I beg your pardon," snld Ishbel. "I meant," I said, sternly, "it Is very wrong of deteriiucntals to make love to girls.' "It is," agreed Ishbel. "But he was very oh, very honorable. Things had gone, well, they had gone rather far, you know, but the week before she sailed, when he proposed at least he didn't exactly propose, but he told her he had only 300 a year, and .that, of course, It was out of the question in England to marry on that, and he couldn't bear the idea of hampering her with d long engagement and what did you say?" "Oh, nothing." "Are you sure? You put me out. Well, he said she musn't be engaged to him, but he would hold himself engaged to her, and some day when the senior partner dropped off I do wish," petu lantly, "you wouldn't mutter like that." I groveled. "Where was I?" demanded Ishbel. "Oh, well, then they said good-by, you know, and she was perfectly miserable If you look so horribly cross I shgJI send you home oh, dreadfully miser able. She felt that she didn't care a straw about other nieu, and there were she mi id there were some very nice men in the steamer coming home, too. Bulls and parties had no attraction for her, and fancy, for ever so long she hardly took any Interest in her frocks. Oh, it was horrid. She only lived for his letters and somehow they well, they were not exactly satisfactory. She supposed It was because he was so very honorable, and they were not real ly engaged, you know. But one day she thought It all over and decided that sort of thing would have to come to an end. She knew she would never be happy for a moment till he came out. as she knew lie would some day, to claim her, but she made up her in I ml to stop thinking about him as much as possible and try to seem happy, no mat ter how perfectly miserable she was In reality. The Idea was, you see I think she got It out of a poem to lock his Image up lu her heart." "I see," said I. "And how did it work?" "It worked very well," said Ishbel, retiectiveiy. "sno knew sue was wrenched, but she didn't allow burwelf to thing about it" "And what happened?" I asked brisk ly. "Weil, after three years he came." 'Oh, he did?' "Of course," said Ishbel sharply, "Did you Imagine he didn't?" I coughed. "And she unlocked her heart?" "Yes," said Ishbel.

Description In "Kben Holdcn" of a Day tn the Cornfield. We climbed the wall as he ate, and buried ourselves In the deep corn. The fragrant, silky tasttcls brushed my face and the corn, hissed at our Intrusion, ; crossing Its green sabers In our path. Far lu the Held my companion heaped a little of the soft earth for a pillow, spread the oilcloth between rows, and as we lay down drew the big shawl over us. Uncle Eb wus tired after the toll of that night and went asleep al most as soon as he was down. Before I dropped off Fred came and licked my face and stepped over me, his tull wagging for leave, and curled upon tho shawl at my feet. 1 could see no sky In that gloomy green aisle of corn. This going to bed In the morning seemed a foolish business to me that day find I lay a long time looking up at the run-. tling canopy overhead. I remember list ening to the waves that came whisper ing out of the further field, nearer aud nearer, until they swept over us with a roaring spiasn or leuves, like that or water flooding among rocks, as 1 have heard It often. A twinge of homesick ness came to me and the snoring of Uncle Eb gave me no comfort. I re member covering my head and crying softly as I thought of those who had gono away and whom 1 wns to meet In a far country, called heaven, whither we were going. 1 forgot my sorrow finally in sleep. When 1 awoke It had grown dusk under the com. ' I felt for Uncle Eb and he was gone. Theu I called to him. "Hush, boy! lie lowl" he whispered, bending over me, a sharp look lu his eye. " 'Frald they're after us." He sat kneeling beside me, holding Fred by the collar and listening. I could hear voice, the rustle of the corn aud the tramp of feet near by. It was thun dering In the distance that heavy, shaking thunder that seem to take hold of the earth, ond there were sounds In the corn like the drawing of salKTB and the rush of ninny feet. Tho noisy thunder cloud came nearer, and the voices that made us tremble were no longer heard. Uncle Eb began to fasten the oil blanket to the stalks of corn for a shelter. The rain can Mur ing over us. The sound of It was llko that of a host of cavalry coming as a xallop. We lay bracing the stalks, the blanket tied above us, and were quite dry for a time. The rain rattled lu tho sounding sheaves and then cuine flood ing down the steep gutters. Above us beam and rafter creaked, swaying ami showing glimpses of tho dark sky. Tho rain passed we could hear the last battalion leaving the Held -and then the tumult ended as suddenly as It began. Tho corn trembled a few mo ments and hushed to a faint whisper. Then wo could hear only the drip of raindrops leaking through the greeu oof. It was dnrk under the corn. The oftener a man's Idols are shat tered the less he cures for WVnlUoti.
