It a person la ill and needs a medi
cine ia it not wise to get oae that haa
stood the test of time and haa hun
dreds of thousanda of curea to iU
credit? :
A great many women who are ill try
' jeverythinff they hear of in the way of
'medicine, and this experimenting with
unknown drags ia a constant menace
to their already impaired health.
This set ma to us very unwise, for
there are remedies which are no ex
periments and have been known yeara
and yeara to be doing only good.
Take for instance Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound; for thirty
yeara its record haa been one un
'broken chain of success. No medicine
for female ills the world haa ever
known haa such a record for cures.
It seems so strange that some people
will take medicines about which they
really know nothing, some of which
might be, and are, really harmful ;
while on the other hand It ia easily
proved that over one million women
' have been restored to health by Lydia
E. Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound.
We hare 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
spirit of confidence in the hearts 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'a Vegetable Com
pound, which has been tried, and
never found wanting, whose reliability
ts established far beyond the experi
mental stage."
We have thousanda of letters like the
following addressed to Mrs. Pink ham,
showing that

"I suffered untold agony every
month and could get no relief until I
tried your medicine ; your letter of ad
vice and a few bottles of Lydia .
Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound have
made me the happiest woman alive. I
shall bless you as long as 1 live," Miss
Jok Saul, Dover, Mich.
" Four yeara ago I had almost given
np hope of ever being well again. I
was afflicted with those dreadful head
ache spells which would sometimes
last three or four days. Also had
backache, bearing-down pains, leucor
rhuea. 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. Pinkham'a Vegetable
Compound in the highest terms to all
sick women." Miss Rosa Heldzk,

Two Letters which Provm
that lydia Em Pinkham'a

Other Female Weakneaam
" Two years ago I waa a great
lufferer from womb trouble and pro
fuse flowing each month, and tumors
would form in the womb. I had four
tumors in two yeara. I went through
treatment with doctors, but they did
me no good, and I thought 1 would
have to resort to morphine.
" The doctor said that all that cfiuld
help me was to have an operation and
have the womb removed, but I had
heard of Mrs. Pinkham'a medicine and
decided to try it, and wrote for her
advice, and after taking her Vegetable
Compound the tumors were expelled
and I began to get stronger right
along, and am aa well aa ever before.
Can truly say that I would never had
Sotten well had it not been for Lydia
1. Pinkham'a Compound." Mabt A.
Btabx, Wataontown, Pa.
"After following the directions
given in your kind letter for the treat
ment of leucorrhea, I can say that I
have been entirely cured by the use
of Lydia E. Pinkham'a remedies, and
will gladly recommend them to my
friends." A. B, Davids, Binghamton,

Another Case of Womb,

Trouble Cured by Lydia

Compound
" Dxab Fkikxb Two years ago I had
child-bed fever and womb trouble in
its worst form. For eigh t months after
birth of babe I was not able to sit up.
Doctors treated me, but with no help.
I had bearing-down pains, burning in
stomach, kidney and bladder trouble
and my back waa stiff and sore, the
right ovary was badly affected and
everything I ate distressed me, and
there was a bad discharge.
" I was confined to my bed when I
wrote to you for advice and followed
your directions faithfully, taking
Lydia E. Pinkham'a Vegetable Com
pound, Liver Pills and using the Wash,
and am now able to do the most of my
housework. I believe I should have
died if it had not been for your Com
pound. I hope this letter may, be the

Government Wilt Attempt to Indue the
Adoption of Conservative Meth
ods of Lumbering;,
The attempt of the government to
Induce the adoption of conservative
methods of lumbering in order to pre
aeive the national resources, and the
responsive interest taken by timber
owners, have brought np many interest
ing legal questions, and the division of
forestry haa found it necessary to make
extensive researches in this direction.
As a result, a circular dealing with the
laws which affect forests is in course
of preparation and will be sent free to
persona interested. One of the most
important points brought out is the
recognition by law of the prospective
value of growing timber. The possi
bility of profitably carrying on lumber
ing with systematic provision for future
cutting depends upon this point. It
has usually been held that when, by
tresspass, or by unscrupulous cutting
by contractors, timber has been re
moved contrary to the owner's wish,
he could recover only its atumpage
value. Aa forestry usually requires
that a certain number of trees of cer
tain sitae be left, it follows that an un
scrupulous contractor could easily upset
the plana of years with little fear of
punishment. The supreme com t, how
ever, haa recently ruled that the differ
ence in value between logged and tin
logged land depends not .only on the
value of the timber removed, but on
its probable increase had it been left
untouched.
Improvements In Alaska."
Captain W. R. Aben-rombie, head of
the government exploration party,
which last season did much work, in
the Copper river country and began
opening up a military road from Port
Valdes to Fort Egbert on the Yukon,
arrived in Seattle, en route north to
continue his work. It is the purpose
of the government, he says, to con
struct 2,400 miles of telegraph line in
Alaska, and complete the military
road. He returns this year with in
creased responsibilities. The road, he
nays, will be completed during this
season from its present terminus, 80
miles inland, to Tanana, about two
thirds of the distance to the Yukon.
The telegraph line will be built from
Port Valdes along the road to Fort
Egbert and thence down the Yukon to
St. Michael.
Among other northern improvements,
he says, a large government wbaif at
Valdes has been decided upon.
An Eastern syndicate, headed by
Henry Villard, he says, ia now having
surveys made along the general course
of the military road with a view oi
building a line.

matter.
It ia reported by a gentleman resid
ing in Ashland that instead of rebuild
ing the woolen mill at that place it is
likely that the company will build a
woolen mill at Klamath Falls, says
the Klamath Falls Republican. It is
argued that such a mill here would, on
account of the long and mountainous
road intervening, be far easier of
access for the wool growers of Klamath

lack of snow in grain-growing regions
is heard no widespread damage from
cold weather is yet noted. In fact,
unseasonably mild weather has been an
appreciable effect on several industries,
notably those engaged in the manufac
ture of footwear, in discouraging sales
of the came actually cauaiun the shut
down of some rubber manufactories,
and also iu the lumber and ice busi

Northwest will unquestionably affect
the log cutting season, and a firmer

A man who walks circumspectly has
his eyes open and his wits about him.
If you ask him where he is going he
can tell you instantly. He has a rule
of conduct, and a distinct object iu
view, and carries with him a certain
sense of danger that some one or some
thing will interfere with the object he
has in view. Such a man will be more
likely to accomplish his purpose than a
mere wanderer. If it is worth while
to walk circumspectly, for the sake of
success in business and the accomplish
