When a man eays he la always sick, troubled with a cough that lasted all winter what would you think If he should say he never wot sick since using Ballard's Horehound Syrup. Such a man exists: Mr. J. C. Clark, Denver, Colorado, writes: "For years I was troubled with a severe cough that would lost all winter. This cough left me In a mlaerable condition. I tried Ballard's Horehound Syrup and have not had a alck day since. That's what It did for me." Hart's Drug Store STOP, WOMAN I AND CONSIDER THE ALL IMPORTANT FACT That In address ing Mrs. Pink ham yon an con fiding your private ft Ills to a woman a woman whose expert enoe with women's dis eases coven a great many yean. Mrs. Plnkham U the daiighter-ln-law of Lydia IS. rinkbam, and for many years underbcrdlreotlon, and since her de- ccaso.she has been men free of sharers. l Many- women suffer In silence and drift along from bad to worse, knowing full well that they ought to have immediate assist ance, but a natural modesty Impels them to shrink from exposing them selves to the questions and probable examinations of even their family physician. It is unnecessary. Without money or price you can consult a wo man whose knowledge from actual ex perience is great. Mrs. Plnkham's Standing Invitation, Women suffering from any form of female weakness are Invited to promptly communicate with Mn. Plnkham, at Lynn, Mass. All letters are received, opened, read and answered by women only. A woman can freely talk of her Erivate Illness to a woman ; thus has een established the eternal confidence between Mrs. Plnkham and the women of America which has never been broken. Out of the vast volume of experience which she has to draw from, it is more than possible that she has gained the very knowledge that will help your cose. She asks nothing in return except your good-will, and her advice has relieved thousands. Surely any woman, rich or poor, is very foolish If she does not take advantage of this generous offer of assistance. If you are ill, don't hesitate to get bottle of Lydla E. Plnkham's Vegetable Compound at once, and write Mn. Pink ham, Lynn. Mass., for special advice. When a medicine has been successful in restoring to health so many women, you cannot well say, without trying it, i do not believe it will help me.

He went to a dealer, who sold him an animal and guaran teed that be could trot a mile in 2:10. He took his purchase home and the next day drove down to the track to try him. Much to his disgust, the best the horse could do was a mile in 3:10. He returned to the dealer In a rage and said: "You told me this horse could trot a mile In 2:10. Ho can't go a mile better than 3:10." The dealer looked at him a minute and said: "Well, what of that? Are you In such a terrible hurry you can't wait a miuute?"-riillH(lt'lphIa Ledger. Snubbed.
