Dyspepsia of Women
Caused by Female Disorders and Cured by
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound
A great many women suffer with a
form of indigestion or dyspepsia which
does not seem to yield toordinary treat
ment. While the symptoms seem to be
similar to those of ordinary indiges
tion, yet the medicines universally pre
scribed do not seem to restore the pa
tient's normal condition.
Mrs. Pinkham claims that there is a
hind of dyspepsia that is caused by a
derangement of the female organism,
and which, while it causes a disturb
ance similar to ordinary indigestion,
cannot be relieved without a medicine
which not only acts as a stomach tonic,
but has a peculiar tonic effect on the fe
male organism.
As proof of this theory we call at
tention to the case of Mrs. Maggie
Wright, Brooklyn, N. Y., who was
completely cured by Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound after every
thing else had failed. !She writes:
“ For two years T suffered with dyspepsia
which so degenerated the entire system that I
was unable to attend to my daily duties. I
felt weak and nervous, and nothingthat I ate
lasted good and it caused a disturbance in my
stomach. I tried different dyspepsia cures,
but nothing seemed to help me. 1 was ad
vised to give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound a trial, and was happily surprised
to find that it acted like a flue tonic, and in a
fewdavs I began to enjoy and properly digest
my food. My recovery wins rapid, and in
Five weeks I was a well woman. I have rec
ommended it to many suffering women.”
No other medicine in the world has
received such widespread and unquali
fied endorsement or has such a record
of cures of female troubles, as has Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
CHURCH PEW HIS BED.
Tramp Finds Rest for His We ary
Bones in House of Worship.
The janitor of one of Portsmouth's
largest churches was given a big sur
prise Sunday morning as he stepped
Into tlie auditorium after opening the
big front doors to allow of the usual
airing out. He came face to face with
a strange and tough-looking man. At
first the janitor feared a touch of the
chills, but he finally brought himself
together and inquired of the man what
he had been doing.
The fellow said that he had been en
joying a night’s rest on the cushions
of a pew away down front. Saturday
night he was attracted to the church
by the singing of the choir during re
hearsal. He found the door open,
walked in and sat down.
The music had that soothing efTect
and the wanderer fell asleep. He knew
nothing more until daylight, when he
awoke wondering where he was at. He
Baid that in all his life he had never
found a more comforable bed.
The janitor looked about, saw that
aicthing was disturbed and then al
lowed the stranger to go.—Portsmouth,

In appointing his son. Lord Bruce,
as his private secretary the earl of

when he became prime minister in
1889. appointed Herbert Gladstone,
then a young man of 20, to a similar
position.

FORTUNE IN ISLAND.
Disappointment at End of Fighting In
tense Among the Foreign Legion
—New Yorker Angry at Fate.
The greatest old boy of the Foreign
ljegion in Cuba, says the correspond
ent for Harper’s Weekly, is Capt. E.
B. Webster, an elderly Yankee from
Litchfield, Conn., the country of ro
bust onions and stil more robust men.
The cap'll would rather eat than
light, but, as it is often necessai'r to
eat—well, pshaw! a man has to have
the price, even if he has to fight for it.
And fighting in Cuba just now is al
most the best paying profession. He
who lives by it can eat terrapin and
canvasback—if there are still such
things beyond this troubled land of
garbanzos and papas frituras.
There is nothing of the fire eater
about. Webster. On the day after Col.
Avalos had driven Pino Guerra’s men
out of Consolacion, the cap’n and I
were chatting when a cheerful lieu
tenant came along and remarked,
“We’re going after ’em.’’
“Dern it all! I hope not,” said the
cap’n, in his slow New England drawl.
“Here we’ve been cooped up in that
blamed hot train for thirty-six hours,
fighting day and night, with mighty
little to eat, and the rebels giving us
no time to eat it. I’m tired of fight
ing. What I want is a long sleep
and a few good meals. But, say, you
ought to have been there when I got
those charging rebels right, on the
transverse. When the gun got going
I tell ye they tumbled down off their
horses like a pack o’ cards. Here,
lieutenant, how soon do we start?”
Cap’n Webster was a coasting skip
per sailing out of Yankee ports for
many years. He is a heavy, stoop
shouldered and "sot in his ways.”
He brought a few filibuster cargoes
into Cuba during the war of inde
pendence, and at the age when most
men take to golf he grew so fond of
fighting that he has never been able
to shake off the fascinations of the
game. He was Fnited States consul
at Cardenas for a while, but as soon
as this rebellion started he began to
help organize the Foreign Legion.
Capt. George Reno is a New Yorker,
tall, slim, pale and bashful. He came
down here as a free lance war cor
respondent ten years ago and acquired
the fighting habit. He hasn’t got his
company recruited yet, but when they
do take the field the Azaldos had bet
ter look out.
Lieut. Adolph Fittig was a gentle
real estate dealer in Havana until the
war began. Then he remembered with
joy the fine times he had during his
military service in Germany a few
years ago. Away to the winds went
the real estate business, and the Herr
Ober-Lieulenant burst into bloom in
his uniform.
Lieut. Herbert Shockley is a small
and very cheerful fighting man from
Philadelphia. When they organized
the Foreign Legion he smiled and said
he believed he’d take a commission.
When he was firing a machine gun
on the roof of the armored car and a
rebel Mauser bullet went through his
leg he smiled and said he believed
lightning never struck twice in the
same place. I wanted to photograph
him as soon as he had a little leisure
after the battle. He smiled.
"Better wait till I can stand up
straight,” he advised. “A fellow hates
to lpok sickly in a picture.”
The angriest soldier of fortune I
ever saw is Gilbert H. Carr, who came
in great haste all the way from West
115th street, New York, the Morning
side Heights district, to take part in
the game. Gen. Loynaz del Castillo
made him a captain in the rebel forces
—and then this truce was declared.
“Wouldn't that irritate you?” Carr
asked me. "How, would you like to
come all the way down here to have
a little fun, and then find them giv
ing out rain checks?”
It does seem a trifle rough on Carr.
He is a slender, fair-skinned, blue
eyed youngster who belongs in the
second company of the Twelfth Regi
ment, New York National Guard, when
he’s home. He has fought in South
Africa and in a few South American
revolutions.
Two Meanings to Sign.
English actors now in London, after
touring "the states,” say that they
have been surprised at the rise in
prices in this country. One was
struck by the high cost of hair cuts in
the hotels. The story goes: “Tired of
paying 50 cents to be clipped, and
seeing a sign exhibited to the effect,
'First-class hair cut, 25 cents,’ he en
tered and was attended to. At the
close he casually asked: ’How much?’
and was surprised to be asked for 50
cents. He reminded the barber of
his si£n outside. ‘Yes, siree,’ said the
latter, ‘the sign’s all right, but say,
you haven’t got first-class hair!”
Long Stop, Now.

Miss Tersleep—I should have im
agined just the opposite. How you

Fame.
“Why don't you try to do something
that will make your name go down in
history?”
“Too much of a job,” answered the
inert man. “It’s as much as I can
manage to keep my name from being
uosted in my club.”

Honey From Spain and Germany.
There are 1,690,000 beehives, pro

Catarrh and Headache.
Mrs. Z. E. Goforth, 2119 Holly St,
Kansas City, writes: “After using a
sample bottle and two 25c bottles of
Hunt's Lightning Oil 1 am almost well
of Catarrh. It stops my headaches.
It is the bt>st medicine I ever saw
and I just can't keep house without
it.” She is right.
Earnings of Novelists.
Authors earn much less in France
than in England. The late Sir Walter
Besant ten years ago estimated that
there were 50 novelists in England
who earned upward of a thousand a
year. There are now probably nearer
a hundred and fifty; while in France
there are almost certainly not more
than 50 who make a living at all. An
English novelist of standing will re
ceive eighteer.pence on every copy of
a book sold. Some novelists receive
two shillings. Emile Zola, who touched
high water mark in France, got a
franc, which is rather less than ten
pence. Seven pence halfpenny is
considered excellent pay, and four
pence and fivepence are common.
Each to His Own Trade.
A story is told of a Scotch minister
who gave the rural joiner an order to
make a small wooden cupboard.
When the pastor received the ac
count he complained to the joiner
about the amount, and said he could
have got a second-hand cupboard,
which would have answered his pur
pose equally well, at much less cost.
"Yes," retorted the joiner; “and I
could buy a guid sermon for three
pence; but e'e wadna' care aboot
preaching them at that price!”—Stray
Stories.
It Will Stay There.
"In my family medicine chest no
remedy is permitted to remain unless
it proves beyond doubt the best to bo

"For treating all manner of skin
troubles, such as Eczema, Tetter.
Ringworm, etc., Hunt's Cure has held
its place for many years. 1 have

The Laxative *
Known Quality
\
There are two classes of remedies; those of known qual
ity and which are permanently beneficial in effect, acting
gently, in harmony with nature, when nature needs assist
ance; and another class, composed of preparations of
unknown, uncertain and inferior character, acting tempo
rarily, but injuriously, as a result of forcing the natural
functions unnecessarily. One of the most exceptional of
the remedies of known quality and excellence is the ever
pleasant Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California
Fig Syrup Co., which represents the active principles of
plants, known to act most beneficially, in a pleasant syrup,
in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are used to con
tribute their rich, yet delicate, fruity flavor. It is the remedy
of all remedies to sweeten and refresh and cleanse the system
gently and naturally, and to assist one in overcoming consti
pation and the many ills resulting therefrom. Its active princi
ples and quality are known to physicians generally, and the
remedy has therefore met with their approval, as well as with
the favor of many millions of well informed persons who know
of their own personal knowledge and from actual experience
that it is a most excellent laxative remedy. We do not claim that
it will cure all manner of ills, but recommend it for what it really
represents, a laxative remedy of known quality and excellence,
fr containing nothing of an objectionable or injurious character.
There are two classes of purchasers; those who are informed
as to the quality of what they buy and the reasons for the excellence
of articles of exceptional merit, and who do not lack courage to go
elsewhere w'hen a dealer offers an imitation of any well known
article; but, unfortunately, there are some people who do not know,
and who allow themselves to be imposed upon. They cannot expect
its beneficial effects if they do not get the genuine remedy.
To the credit of the druggists of the United States be it said
that nearly all of them value their reputation for professional
integrity and the good will of their customers too highly to offer
imitations of the
