Mrs- Pinkham for free
advice about their health.
Mrs. Pinkham Is a wo
man,
If you have painful
periods, backaches or
any of the more serious
Ills of women, write to
Mrs. Pinkham; she has
helped multitudes. Your
loiter will be saoredly
confidential.
Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Oompound Is
known wherever the Eng
lish language Is spoken.
Nothing else can possi
bly be so sure to help suf
fering women. No other
medk»ire has helped so
many.
Remember this when
somei..'ng else is sug
gested.
Mrs. Pinkham's ad
dress Is Lynn, Mass.
Her helping hand Is
always outstretohed to
suffering women.
Pekin lends itself to nickname anil
alliteration. Au English minister de
scribed it as the place of “dirt, dust,
aud disdain.” Others have found it,
like Lord Amherst, a city of despair.
Henry Norman says that the two mo
ments when one appreciates It are the
first sight of its frowniug gates aud the
last. Whatever it is or is not to the
"men of long views,” It must always
be one of the nerve centers of human
interest and iutematioual relations.
During the dynasty of those Mings,
whose name was the warcry of the
Taipings, and is to-day in the mouths
of many of the secret societies that
form the great difficulty of Chinese rule
and management, It was a city of but
second-rate importance.
Their attention was given to the em
bellishment of the now half-wasted
city of Nankin, often called “the na
tional capital,” but Pekin has been the
imperial capital since the Ta-Tsings
seized the throne, and those who are
qualified to speak are of opinion that
any notion of degrading it from its
pride of place, to suit the convenience
of European diplomacy, is foredoomed
to failure. It is not ouly the capital
of the Manebus, It is the capital of the
mandarins. The official word is of the
Pekinese stamp, and the Pekinese is
the official language, the tongue of the
graduate aud educated man. To the
ear it lias a pleasanter and softer sound
than the rough dialects of the prov
inces. and it has been developed and
molded to the elaborate and ornate
phrases of polite society. 'The “sb” is
often heard instead of harder and more
uncouth conjunctions.—Loudon Tele
