IN SUCH PAIN WOMAN TORE HER CLOTHES Testifies She W as Restored to Health by Lydia E. Pinkham’s V egetable Compound. Malone, N . Y .,— " Lydia E. Pink- liam’a Vegetable Compound has cer tainly done me a lot of good. I first heard of it when I was a girl and I always said that if I ever had fe male trouble I would take it. " I suffered from o r g a n ic inflamma tion and would have spells when I would be in such pain that I would t e a r my clothes. One day my husband got the neighbors in to see what the matter was but they could not help me. My first thought was for Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and I sent my hus band out for it and took it until I was en tirely cured. I am a woman o f perfect health and my health and happiness came from Lydia E. Pinkham’s medi cine. You may rest assured that I do all I can to recommend your wonderful medicine to my fr :ends.” — M r î . F red S t o n e , Route No. 3, Malone, N. Y. The success of Lydia E.

London—Three hundred million dol lars in addition to the $625,000,000 al ready expended was the estimate giv en by Augustine Birrell, chief secre tary for Ireland, o f the sum necessary to complete the operation o f land pur chase in Ireland in accordance with the provisions o f the land purchase acts o f 1903 and 1909. These acts make it compulsory for a landlord to permit his tenant to purchase the land he cultivates. Of the $300,000,000 Mr. Birrell said it would be necessary to borrow only $120,000,000 through the public issue o f land stock. The rest will be finan ced by the National debt commission ers under a new bill, which will give compulsory powers to the government to make the vendors receive half the purchase price in 3 per cent stock. APPLE GROWERS ORGANIZE Will Establish Agencies in All I.arge Business Centers. Spokane, Wash.—Out o f a confer ence of apple growers in Spokane last November has been evolved a coopera tive marketing organization which will be launched immediately on a continent-wide basis, having exclusive agencies in 150 leading centers of North America, extending from Mon treal to Texas, and from Florida to Eastern Montana. Through these agencies most of the great apple crop of the states of Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Mon tana will be marketed cooperatively under one central selling agency. The organization of Pacific North west fruit growers is considered by bankers and business men to be the most important economic development of the present decade, and they are freely asserting that this cooperative movement will mean the salvation of the apple industry o f these states, which last year produced 16,000 car loads. Carload shipments will commence next week under direction of General Manager J. H. Robbins at the Spokane headquarters of the distributors. While apples perhaps will constitute the bulk of the corporation’s shipments, all de ciduous fruits of the four states will be distributed. In addition to 150 exclusive agents, the North Pacific Fruit Distributors will have representatives covering the Middle Western gateways at Omaha and Minneapolis, as well as at Chicago and New York headquarters, two in the territory of Montana and the Da kotas and three in the provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. H. F. Davidson, a large grower of Hood River, Or., president of the dis tributors, will go to New York August 1, and H. E. Smith, sales manager from Southern Idaho, to Chicago, to perfect organizations at these head quarters. $5,000,000 Melon Is Divided. New York—The directors of the American Express company have de cided to distribute among the stock holders of the company 45,000 shares of stock of Wells-Fargo & Co., with a market value o f nearly $5,000,000, which has been held by the company for several years. As there are 180,- 000 shares of American Express stock, one share of Wells-Fargo will be al- loted for each four shares of the American company’s stock. The American Express company ob tained the stock several years ago when it was bought as a result of an agreement whereby it contracted with the Union Pacific railroad for exten sion o f its service over that line. The purchase was made, the directors said, with the intention ultimately o f dis tributing the Wells-Fargo stock thus obtained. Will Allow Mail Deposits. Washington, D. C. — Banking by mail is the latest innovation entered into by the government in connection with the postal savings system. Here after deposits may be made by mail and withdrawals likewise effected through the same agency. When the postal savings system was first put into operation, postmasters were forbidden to permit deposits by such persons as were not patrons of the postoffice in which they sought to bank. This was found to work a real hardship on a certain class o f would- be depositors, and Postmaster General Burleson accordingly abrogated the rule. Roumanians Are Near Sofia. London — Roumanian troops are at Plevna and Mesedra, the latter town within 30 miles of Sofia, and King Ferdinand o f Bulgaria is suppliant to King Charles, of Roumania, for terms of peace. It is understood that the powers are striving to induce Rou mania not to occupy Sofia and are urg ing Bulgaria to appoint a delegate to confer with the Servian and Greek pre miers. The facts o f the situation are just becoming known in Sofia and are causing dismay among the people. M. Malinoff’s efforts to form a cabinet appear to have failed. Chinese Rebels Defeated.

His dramatic 3000-mile dash across the continent from Silver City, N. M ., to Providence, R. I., where Dr. Fried mann was then holding his only New England clinic, was sensational.
