WHY MRS. PINKHAM
Able to Help Siek Women
When Doctors Fail.
How gladly would men fly to wo
man's aid did they, but understand a
woman’s feelings, trials, sensibilities;
and peculiar organic disturbances.
Those things are known only tc
women, and the aid a man would give
is not at his command.
To treat a case properly it is neces
sary to know all about it, and full
information, many times, cannot be
given by a woman to her family plr,
Mrs. G. H. Chappell.
siclan. She cannot bring herself io
tell everything, and the physician is
at a constant disadvantage. This is
why, for the past twenty-five years,
thousands of women have been con
fiding their troubles to Mrs. Pinkham,
and whose advice has brought happi
ness and health to countless women in
the United States.
Mrs. Chappell, of Grant Park, 111.,
whose portrait we publish, advises all
suffering women to seek Mrs. Pink
ham's advice and use Lydia E. Pink
ham’s Vegetable Compound, as they
cured her of inflammation of the ovaries
and womb ; she, therefore, speaks from
knowledge, and her experience ought
to give others confidence. Mrs. Pink
ham’s address is Lynn, Mass., and her
advice is absolutely free.

ened cuticle, CUTICURA OINTMENT to instantly
allay itching, irritation, and inflammation, and
soothe and heal, and CUTICURA RESOLVENT
to cod and cleanse the blood, and expel humour
germs. A SINGLE SET is often sufficient to cure
the most torturing, disfiguring skin, scalp, and
blood humours, rashes, itchings, and irritations,
with loss of hair, when the best physicians,

MILLIONS USE CUTICURA SOAP
Assisted by Cuticura Ointment, for preserving, purify

crusts, scales, and dandruff, and the stopping of falling
hair, for softening, whitening, and soothing red, rough,,
and sore hands, for baby rashes, itchings, and chafings,
and for all the purposes of the toilet, bath, and nursery.
Millions of Women use Cuticura Soap in the form of
baths for annoying irritations, inflammations, and excori
ations, for too free or offensive perspiration, in the form
of washes for ulcerative weaknesses, and for many sana
tive, antiseptic purposes which readily suggest themselves
to women and mothers. No amount of persuasion can
induce those who have once used these great skin purifiers
and beautifiers to use any others. Cuticura Soap com
bines delicate emollient properties derived from Cuticima,
the great skin cure, with the purest of cleansing ingre
dients and the most refreshing of flower odours. No other
medicated soap is to be compared with it for preserving,
purifying, and beautifying the skin, scalp, hair and hands.
No other foreign or domestic toilet soap, however expen

WATER TANK DRAINAGE.
A Simple anil Effective Method oi
Conducting; Avvny Water llclore
It Can Cauae Mud.
The thorough drainage of a water
tank is an important matter. The
mud which forms underneath the
tank, caused by the overflow and leak
age, not only shortens the life of a
wooden tank where it comes in con
tact with the bottom, but sometimes
reaches out for some distance around
the tank and becomes very disagree
able. Many times in the case of a low
tank at which stock is watered, when
the mnd becomes objectionable, ashes
or dirt are thrown around it to ab
sorb mud. This to a certain extent
may prevent the disagreeable effect
of the saturated oil outside the pre
scribed circle or square of tank, but
DRAINAGE FOR WATER TANIC
causes the leakage or overflow to
gravitate back under the tank, where
it remains to rot out the wood or ren
der the foundation insecure. A sim
ple method of conducting away the
water before it can cause mud is
shown in the cut, which is a sectional
drawing of a tank and the system of
drainage to be described. In most
surface earth formations, there are
first thin strata of soil and clay and
then a stratum of sand or gravel, or
both. The leakage water does not
readily percolate through this clay
stratum, but remains on top to com
bine it with the soil in the form of
mud. Directly under tank dig a hole
three to four feet square, deep enough
to reach the sand and gravel layer.
Fill up the hole with small round
stone or broken brick. The water
which flows to center of tank is now
permitted by this stonework con
ductor to enter the porous formation.
If the close clay stratum is very thick
or it is not desirable to dig so deep,
run a stone drain from the bottom of
the hole, which hole in this case need
not be very deep, to a lower level; or
have a system of tile drains radiating
from the hole to a low point or more
porous formation.—J. G. Allshouse,
in Ohio Farmer.
OATS FOR THE COLTS
fto Other Peed or Grain Will Develop
Young. Animals More Quickly or
More Economically,
In determining whether you will
Bell oats this fall, please interview the
well-bred colt. Whether he will pay
you better than the lamb, the calf
or the pig we are not prepared to say,
but if he is well bred we have no hes
itancy in saying that he will pay you
more for the portion of the oats that
he can consume to advantage, not
less than four quarts a day, than the
buyer on the local market.
In his deal with you the colt has
the advantage. You can either sell a
portion of your oats to him or do
worse. The colt needs a flesh-form
ing diet, and will never carry out the
original plan of his creation as laid
in the breeding unless you give him
material to do it with. The best you
have on the farm for the colt is a
good blue grass pasture, second crop
clover, with oats until it is too cold
for him to graze in the held, then
corn fodder with his oats, or if you
have plenty of good clover hay you
may give him less oats and more corn,
especially as the weather gets colder.
Bear in mind that a flesh-former he
must have, if he is to develop his
frame properly. Clover hay and oats
will give him the material for bones
and muscle, and corn fodder will keep
up the heat.
The advantage the colt has over
you is this: If you do not feed him
in such a way as to develop him he
will not develop, and your pocket
book will have to pay for the lack of
it. He has you; recognize the fact
and tote fair.—Wallace’s Farmer.
Fences on Stock Parma.
It is very necessary to have good
fences for all our stock, ana the fence
question is a very important one in
regard to expense, but it does not
make any difference how expensive it
is, it is one of the important items in
successfully raising young stock.
You cannot give them the proper care
n they run everywhere, especially^ in
the yard around the house, or, worse
still, the neighbor's house or prem
ises. It is very necessary to have
your stock just where and when you
want it. It is very necessary to have
numerous yards and fields so as to
separate young and old stock and fat
tening cattle and the weaker ones
from the stronger, says the Kansas
Farmer.
The time has now come when the
successful farmer must study crop
statistics gathered from all parts of
the world. The world’s supplies, sur
plus or deficiency and crop prospects
of coming harvests must be taken in
to consideration. No Kip Van Winkle
methods will serve the progressive
farmer of to-dav,—Farm and Fire

AMBROSEM’KAY ’ S CASE.
Rockbridge, Mo., June 24th:—The
neighborhood and particularly the
members of Rockbridge Lodge, No.
435, A. F. & A. M., are feeling very
much pleased over the recovery of Mr.
Ambrose McKay, a prominent citizen
and an honored member of the Ma
sonic Fraternity.
Mr. McKay had been suffering for
years with Diabetes and Rheumatism,
which recently threatened to end his
days. His limbs were so filled with
pain that he could not sleep. He was
very bad.
Just then, someone suggested a new
remedy—Dodd’s Kidney Pills—which
has been much advertised recently, as
a cure for Bright’s Disease, Diabetes,
Dropsy, Rheumatism and Kidney'
Trouble.
After Mr. McKay had used a few
doses, he commenced to improve. His
pain all left him, and he is almost as
well as ever. He says Dodd's Kidney'
Pills are worth much more than they'
cost. They are certainly getting a
great reputation in Missouri, and
many very' startling cures are being
reported.

Wetmore’s Best
I
/believe that the most men chew
tobacco for the good of the tobac
co and not for the sake of a pre
mium. They are putting the
value of the premiums all in the
quality of the tobacco. The man
who chews Wet more's Best gets
his money's worth in good tobac
co. He notices the difference in
flavor; in lasting quality; {n satis
faction, and finds that all this
goodness costs him less than cheap
tobacco. Try a piece of Wet

that it's "all in the quality."

He thinks he lives, but he's a dead
one. No person is really alive whose
liver is dead. During the winter
most people spend nearly all their time
in warm, stuffy houses or offices or
workshops. Many don't get as much
exercise as they ought, and everybody
knows that people gain weight in
winter. As a rule it is not sound
weight, but means a lot of flabby fat
rand useless, rotting matter staying in
the body when it ought to have been
driven out. But the liver was over
burdened, deadened—stopped work. There
you are, wim a aeaa uver, ana rigni now is
the time for resurrection. Wake up the dead!
Get all the filth out of your system, and get
ready for the summer's trials with clean, clear blood, body, brain free from bile. Force
