A
Miss Gannon, Secy Detroit Amateur
.Art Association, tells
do to avoid pain and suffering caused by
female troubles.
"Dear Mrs. Pinkiiam: I can conscientiously recommend Lydia EL
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound to those of my sisters suffering with
female weakness and the troubles which so often befall women. I suf
fered for months with general weakness, and felt so weary that I had
hard work to keep up. I had shooting pains, and wras utterly miserable.
In my distress I was advised to use L-ydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, and it was a red letter day to me when I took the first dose,
for at that time my restoration began. In six weeks I wa3 a changed
woman, perfectly well in every respect. I felt so elated and happy that
. I want all women who suffer to get well as I did." Miss Guila Gannon,
. 359 Jones St., Detroit, Mich., Secretary Amateur Art Association.
It is clearly shown in this young lady's letter that Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound will certainly cure the sufferings
of women ; and when one considers that Miss Gannon's letter is
only one of the countless hundreds which we are continually
.publishing1 in the newspapers of this country, the great virtue of Mrs. Pink
ham's medicine must be admitted by all ; and for the absolute cure of all kinds
- of female ills no substitute can possibly take its place. Women should bear
this important fact in mind when they go into a drug store, and be sure not
to accept anything that is claimed to be " just as good" as Lydia E. Pink
liam's Vegetable Compound, for no other medicine for female ills has
znade so many actual cures.
How Another Sufferer Was Cured.
4 Dear Mrs. Pinkham : I cannot praise your wonderful remedies
enough, for they have done me more good than all the doctors I have
had. For the last eight years and more I suffered with female troubles,
was very weak, could not do my housework, also had nervous pros
tration. Some days I would remain unconscious for a whole day and
night. My neighbors thought I could never recover, but, thanks to
your medicine, I now feel like a different woman.
" I feel very grateful to you and will recommend Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vege table Compound to all. It has now been four years since
I had the last spell of nervous prostration. I only weighed ninety-,-ight
pounds at that' time ; now I weigh one hundred and twenty-three.
"I consider your Vegetable Compound the finest remedy made.
' Thanking you many times for the benefit I received from your medicine.
I remain, ours truly, Mrs. J. II. Farmer, 2809 Elliott Ave., St. Louis, Mo.
Remember Mrs. Pinkham's advice is free and all sick women
are foolish if they do not ask for it. She speaks from the widest
- experience, and has helped multitudes of women.

Aahea Fell Wltto Ilaln.
A curioua phenomena was witnessed
at Huntington and vicinity, on Sunday
evening.
During a heavy rain storm which ex
tended all over the country, from Dui
kee to Huntington, adistance of 20 miles,
a substance resembling wood ashes, fell
in great quantities.
It was indissoluble, as it remained on
the ground after a drenching rain and
was thick enough on boards and house
tops to make a visible change in the
color.
The substance had every appearance
of being ashes, had a greasy feeling and
was different from any phenomena ever
witnessed in that region before. In the
sunshine the ashes dried up and disap
peared leaving a slight trace of dust
which had a taste of burned powder in
it. No one attempts to explain the
strange phenomena. Farmers coming
in for miles told of the same substance
falling with the rain that evening and it
seems to have been generally distributed
over that section. ,
The stage road between Grant's
and Crescent City is completely
blockaded with snrnv, and travel is
suspended.
A shipment of 1,500,000 bush
els of first grade anthracite coal
has been started from Pennsylva
nia points to Russia.
Olympia is the first Pacific Coast
town to aid Baltimore, the citizens
of that place sending $200 to the
stricken city.
Three thousand laborers are at
work clearing debris from the area
of the Baltimore fire. The ex
pense will aggregate about $2,000,

Lunar Body May Have Bfren Bora of
Oar Earth Millions ot
Years Ag-o.
Looking back ti rough t he mists of
time we see the moon ever drawing
nearer and nearer to the earth. Our
satellite now revolves at a distance
of 240,000 miles, but there wa a time
when that distance was no more than
200,000 miles. There was a time, mil
lions of years ago, no doubt, when
the moon was but 100,000 miles away ;
and as we look further and further back
we see the moon ever drawing closer
and closer to the earth, until at last
we discern the critical period in earth
moon history when our globe was spin
ning round in a period of about five
or six hours, writes Sir Robert Ball, in
Booklovers' Magazine. The moon, in
stead of revolving where we now find
it, was then actually close to the
earth; earlier still it was, in fact,
touching our globe, and the moon and
the earth were revolving each around
the other, like a football and a tennis
ball actually fastened together.
It is impossible to resist taking one
step further. We know ih?.t the earth
was, at that early period, a soft molten
mass of matter, spinning roTind rapid
ly. The speed seems to have been so
great that a rupture took place, a por
tion of the molten matter broke away
from the parent globe, and the frag
ments coalesced into a small globe.
That the moon was thus born of our
earth uncounted millions of years ago
is the lesson which mathematics de
clares it learns from the murmur of
the tides.

ENGLISH PRONUNCIATION.
Th Orthographic Chaos la Which th
Sag-Uah LanKoat I Involved
Some Notable Illustration.
We are weltering in an orthographic
chaoa in which a multitude of signs are
represented by the same Bound and a
multitude of sounds bj the same sign,
says Harper's Magazine. Our race as
a race has in consequence lost the
phonetic sense. What can we hope for
the orthoepy of a tonguen which, for
ilustration, the short sound of e, found
in let, is represented by ea in head, by
eo in leopard, by ay in says, by ai in said,
by ei in heifer, and by a in many? Or of
the correspondingly long sound given by
us to the same vowel, which is repre
sented by e In mete (to measure), by ea
in meat (an article of food), or by ee in
the verb to meet; and furthermore by i
in machine, by ie in believe, by ei in re
ceive, by eo in people, and by ae in aegis?
Or take the sound denoted by the digraph
sh, seen in ship. It is represented by
ce in ocean, by ci in suspicion, by ti in
nation, by xi in anxious, by sci in con
science, and by s followed by u in sure.
There is no object in heaping up further
harrowing details, which, indeed, could
be multiplied indefinitely. They have
been Introduced merely to show how
hopeless is the prospect of attaining
under such conditions a uniform stand
ard of pronunciation which all will rec
ognize at once, and to which all will un
questioningly bow.
WHAT A COOL SUMMER DOES.
Ill B fleet a to th Bntlr Boiinew Com
mnnlty, Farmers Included Kaapa
Money from Circulating.
A well known business man says that
the ordinary observer did not stop to
consider what a cool summer meant to
the entire business community, accord
ins: to the Philadelnhia Record. Said he:
Tt affpeta evprvthlnir that dpnpnd linnn
u anecis everytning tnai aepenas upon
trade for life. I have no doubt that the
present slump in stocks is due in part
to the cool summer, which has made the
crops so uncertain. Let us start with the
farmer. He has had poor luck with his
corn, melons and all kinds of truck. The
merchants -who sell summer clothing
and all kinds of seasonable wear have
hardly paid expenses; every seashore re
sort has been running light. This means
so much money lost from circulation,
and all the mechanical trades and in
dustries must suffer. Of course, no one
is to blame, and the only thing to do is
to live and let live until a real hot sum
mer comes to push things along again."
CHARITY FOR CRIPPLES.
Unfortunate Aided by Society Curi
ously Namod "Th Guild of the
Brave Poor Thlnva."
"The Guild of the Brave Poor Things"
ts the curious name adopted by a com
pany of English charity workers, whose
womanly efforts are being directed to
ward the amelioration of the condition
of cripples, young and old.
The guild has recently acquired a
country holiday home at North Com
mon, Chailey, Sussex. It is called the
Heritage, and was formally opened in
June by the duchess of Bedford. The
home is picturesquely situated and will
accommodate 50 guild members men,
women and children some of whom
will become permanent residents and
others will be taken from the various
branches of the guild for short vacation
periods. As soon as may be it is in
tended to start a school of art and
crafts for the crippled and deformed in
mates, and the work will be sold for
their benefit
WOMEN I1C HIGH POSITIONS.
Htnr A Fors-lnafto the Frout In
Various LlaM of Dusluess
mad Labor,
One of the largeat railroad corpora
tions in this country has decided that
the female stenographers in its employ
will not be allowed to qualify for pro
motion, nor shall they be eligible for
its pension list. This is a sweeping de
cision, and probably represents senti
ment other than that of the corporation.
says the Baltimore American.
fty
years ago no one Imagined that a woman
could be a stenographer, and the idea
of their entering the ranks of men to
compete in heavier brain work would
have been regarded as ridiculous. It
cannot be said that they have conquered
every branch of endeavor, but they have
done wonders in the third of a century,
and they may even dissipate the preju
dice of this western railway corporation
before the half of the present century Is
reacd.
The reason for their exclusion may
come from the employes. The aggress
iveness of women has in a number of In
stances led to combinations of their fel
low male workers against them a kind
of self-defense movement which can
scarcely be criticised severely, for the
women have pushed the men out of some
occupations which formerly belonged
to them exclusively. The majority of
clerical railroad positions can hardly be
said to be byrrd the c? parity of brijrht.
brainy wnirT; the management, how
ever, may have irf:rrpd that those se
lected for th highor offices are often
drawn from those clerical departments,
and there have been notable instances of
such oases.
