Dyspepsia Makes more people miserable than any other disease. It takes the pleasure all out of life. The gratitude of those who have been cured of dyspepsia by Hood’s Sarsa parilla is therefore natural.

Love may be blind, but lovers are often spectacles for other people. A husband’s love is on the wane when he begins to stop kicking his wife’s pet dog. When a man marries a girl for her i beauty, he ought not to be surprised ! or disappointed, either, if he doesn’t I get much else. He’d lots of hair upon his chin, But none upon his head— He always spoke before he thought, So many people said. An Indiana woman was made to pay damages to the extent of $126 for say ing that her neighbor’s beauty was ar tificial.

She is illogical, unhappy and frequently hysterical. The condition of the mind known as the blues,” nearly always, with wo men, results from diseased organs of generation. It is a source of wonder tliat In thia age of advanced medical science, any person should still believe that mere force of will and determination will overcome depressed spirits and nerv ousness in women. These troubles aro indications of disease. Every woman who doesn’t under stand her condition should write to Lynn, Mass., to Mrs. I’inkham for her advice. Her advice is thorough com mon sense, and is the counsel of a learned woman of great experience. Read the story of Mrs. F. S. B ennett , Westphalia, Kansas, as told in the fol lowing letter: “ D ear M rs . P inkham :—I have suf fered for over two years with falling, enlargement and ulceration of the womb, and this spring, being in such a weakened condition, caused me to flow for nearly six months. Some time ago, urged by friends, I wrote to you for advice. After using the treatment which you advised for a short time, that terrible flow stopped. “I am now gaining strength and flesh, and have better health than I have had for the past ten years. I wish to say to all distressed, suffer ing women, do not suffer longer, when there Is one so kind and willing to aid you.” Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound is a woman s remedy for wo man's ills. More than a million wo men have been benefited by it. CONSUMPTION j j | BABY'S EDISON'S CRADLE.
