For Sick Women
To Consider
Frp.ST.—That almost every operation
in our hospitals performed upon women
becomes necessary through neglect of
such symptoms as backache, irregular
and painful periods, displacements
of the female organs, pain in the side,
burning sensation in the stomach,
bearing-down pains, nervousness, diz
ziness and sleeplessness.
Second.—The medicine that holds
the record for the largest number of
absolute cures of female ills is Lydia
E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.
|3t regulates, strengthens and cures
diseases of the female organism as
nothing else can.
For thirty years it has been helping
women to be strong, curing backache,
nervousness, kidney troubles, inflam
mation of the female organs, weak
ness and displacements, regulating
the periods perfectly and overcoming
their pains. It has also proved itself
invaluable in preparing women for
childbirth and the change of life.
Third.—The great volume of unso
licited and grateful testimonials on file
at the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass., many of which are from time tc
time published by permission, give ab
solute evidence of the value of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
Mrs. Pinkham's advice.
Mrs.Pinkfiam’s Standing Invitation
t® Women.—Women suffering from any
form of female weakness are invited tc
promptly communicate with Mrs. Pink
ham. at Lynn, Mass. All letters are
received, opened, read and answered
by women only. From symptoms given,
you r trouble may be located and the
quickest and surest way of recovery
advised. Mrs. Pinkham is daughter
in-law- of Lydia E. Pinkham and foi
twenty-five years under her directioE
and since her decease she has been ad
visingsickwomenfrceofcharge. OutoJ
the vast volume of experience in treat
ing female ills Mrs. Pinkham probably
has the very knowledge that will help
your case. Surely, any' woman, rich oi
poor, is very foolish if she does not take
advantage of this generous offer oi
assistance.
ft SPELLING REFORM
ANDREW TO HAVE A HAND IN
THIS TOO.
The New Movement for Simplification
of the English Language—For
eigner's Difficulties—English
a Universal Tongue.
When one reads that the indefat
able Andy was up and at another phil
anthropy—or public benefit, or what
ever you may please to call it—one
laughed at this new form of Carnegie
energy, this new means of getting rid
of Carnegie superfluous wealth. And
then a little questioning into the man
ner, and one thought that after all it
was not so ridiculous, that the new
movement was pretty carefully studied
out, had some very authoritative folk
backing it.
It seems that several year3 ago Mr.
Carnegie remarked to somebody that
he believed the English language was
destined to become a world language,
that world peace would be furthered
thereby; and the Scotchman with the
interests of the world occupying his
horizon, added he thought if our lan
guage were simplified the time might
be hastened for its use as a universal
'tongue. Several of those interested in
fiimnlifientinn heard of this remark of
Mr. Carnegie’s and sought opportunity
to discuss the matter fully. Mr. Car
negie promised to assist in a simplifi
cation movement if the persons inter
ested could secure the signatures of a
score of recognized authorities on
English to an agreement to use the
12 simplified words adopted in 1S98 by
the National Educational association.
Seven hundred names were secured,
and a list of ri0 was sent to Mr. Car
negie. He concluded to make the of
fer of $15,000 a year for five years to
carry on a campaign for simplified
spelling. It is thought more money
will be forthcoming at the expiration
of this period if the experiment shall
have proven a success.
Various efforts have been made
from time to time to reform English
spelling, which really is the abomina
tion of complexity and inconsistency;
but ever the reformers were regarded
by the public as cranks or as those
attempting the palp-oly impossible.
The movement is of different char
acter; as Prof. Brander Matthews, of
Columbia university, puts it: Those
now working for a change in the way
of simplicity are "accelerators” rather
than “innovators.” The changes sug
gested but in line with those that have
been slowly making ever since our
"inconsistent and unscientific orth
ography,” was inflicted. Prof. Mat
thews tells us English spelling as it
exists to-day, is a compromise ar
rived at by the printers and publishers
of London early in the eighteenth cen
tury, men ordinarily ignorant of the
history of the language.” And then
Dr. Johnson comes in for a tremendous
THE "UBIKWITrST ANDREW.
share of the blame, Dr. Johnson with
his misleading dictionary.
So the reformers make declaration
of independence of printer and dic
tionary maker, and they bid all schol
ars and all sensible, hard headed bus
iness men join hands with them to do
away with our time-wasting and im
possible word architecture. Statistics
are gathered to show the waste of time
of school boy and girl, of the waste in
business life, and this appeal is of the
kind to influence a large number of
people. If the proposed reforms car
ry there will be an enormous saving
in precs work, the price of bcoks
very considerably reduced.
The words adopted by the National
Educational association in 1898 we
have become more or less familiar
With; they are program, tho, altho,
thoro thorofare, thru, thruout, cata
log, prolog, decalog, demagog and ped
agog. These have lost their strange
ness to many of us, and are blessedly
easy to write.
If the reformers succeed with the
English spelling, assuredly the Eng
lish school children shall rise up
and call them blessed, the English
business man find his letter files
less bulky, the “outlander” look
with more favor on the English
language.

RELIGIOUS RUMOR.
The New York federation of church
es, which has been in existence for ten
years, is out of debt for the first time
in its history. It is spending more
than $16,000 a year in its work.
Indianapolis will have the interna
tional meeting of Young Men's Chris
tian association societies, which brings
together between 800 and 1,000 workers
from the United States, Canada and
Mexico, next May.
Native Protestant Christians in In
dia have formed a national home mis
sionary society to evangelize their own
country. The society will be adminis
tered wholly by Indian natives, in har
mony with existing Christian churches
in that land.
The Congregationalists are raising
now about $200,000 a year for church
extension, but not satisfied with that
are starting a movement to insure
$500,000 being raised. There are 500
congregations of their denomination in
this country.
There are more than 2,000,000 negro
Baptists in this country, with 50 insti
tutions of learning and 45 denomina
tional papers. They have a national
organization, with boards for missions, 1
home and foreign, education, publica- '
tion and the young people’s societies.
The Salvation Army is m iking much
progress in Germany under the leader
ship of Commander Oliphant, who the
Frankfurter Zeitung declares is almost
as interesting a character as Gen.
Booth. He is tall and lean, has a very
high forehead, bushy eyebrows and a
long black beard. Though an English
man, he speaks German fluently and
his citations evince thorough familiari
ty with German literature.
AMONG ARTISTS.
Ten eminent Japanese artists were
busy for months devising a seal for the j
young crown prince of their country, j
this is now put on everything he
wears or uses.
A recent exposition in Amsterdam
of 20 new paintings by Josef Israels j
bore witness to the fact that this emi- |
lent Jewish artist, at the age of 80,
preserves the best traits of his man
hood powers.
Heinrich V *gel, a well-known Ger
man portrait painter, who, however,
has not done any work for three dec
sides, has left his whole property, val
ued at $250,000, for the founding of a
rharitable institution for artists.
Japanese postage stamps are rated !
as the most artistic in the world;
there is a great demand for them in
London at present. The first stamps
were issued in 1871. There are few
rare ones, the highest price ever
known to have been paid for one be
ing $50.

AMAZING RESULTS
Followed the treatment of Mrs.
Maggie Smith, Bonair, Tenn.,
who regarded herself a hope
less invalid—but we give her
own enthusiastic portrayal :
“I was afflicted with whites,
weak back, nervous spells and
swimming of the head for sev
eral years, and was in a truly
miserable state of health. I be
came so discouraged that 1
quit taking medicines because
they did no good, until I saw in
a St. Joseph’s Almanac what
G.F.P
GERSTLE’S
FEMALE PANACEA
was doing for other women, so
I wrote for instructions, which
I received and followed, with
amazing results. The G. F. P.
has done wonders for me. .It
has made me stronger and in
better health than I had known
for years. It is a remarkable
remedy and ought to be in ev
ery home, for it makes sick
women well and removes all
their pains and aches.”
