Thousands of American women
in our homes are daily sacrificing
their lives to duty.
In order to keep the home neat
and pretty, the children well dressed
and tidy, women overdo. A female
weakness or displacement is often
brought on and they suffer in silence,
drifting along from bad to worse,
knowing well that they ought to
have help to overcome the pains and
aches which daily make life a burden.
It is to these faithful women that
LYDIA E.PINKHABVTS
VEGETABLE COMPOUND
comes as a boon and a blessing,
as it did to Mrs. F. Ellsworth, of
Mayville, N. Y., and to Mrs. W. P.
Boyd, of Beaver Falls, Pa., who say:
“ I was not able to do my own work,
owing to the female trouble from which
I suffered. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege
table Compound helped me wonderfully,
and I am so wet that I can do as big a
day’s work a'1 I ever did. I wish every
sick woman vouid try it.
FACTS FOR SICK WOMEN.
For thirty years Lydia E. Pink
ham’s Vegetable Compound, made

tion, fibroid tumors, irregularities,

ing-down feeling, flatulency, indiges
tion,dizziness,or nervous prostration.
"Why don’t you try it ?
Mrs. Pinkham invites all sick
women to write her for advice.
She lias guided thousands to
health. Address, Lynn, Mass.
Instrumental Music.
That a word may convey vastly dif
ferent meanings when differently used
is amusingly illustrated by a story
from the Brooklyn Life.
"Have ye heard me daughter Mona
sing lately?” asked Mr. Dugan.
"Roth lately and early,” said Mr.
Hogan. “'Tis the fine insthrumental
music she do make.”
“Ye ignoramus! Sure, singing ain't
insthrumental music!” indignantly re
plied Mr. Dugan.
"Keegan told me it was insthrumen
tal in causing him to move two blocks
away from yer house.”—Youth's Com
panion.
His Elusive Memory.
Employer—William, did that mar.
who called to see me while I was out
leave his name?
Shaggy-Haired Office Boy—Yes, sir;
his name is—is—well, the last part of
It is “shaw.”
Employer—What’s the first part of
It?
Office Boy (making a strenuous ef
fort to recall it)—Well, sir, it’s either
Grim, or Hawk, or Hen, or Brad, or
fc'an. or Ker, or Rick, but to save my
bloomin’ life, Mr. Townsend, I can’t
.^member which.
In the Free Vaccination Ward.
A Lithuanian woman was getting
her fifth baby vaccinated the other
day.
"I am glad,” said the young surgeon,
“that you recognize the importance of
vaccination.”
“Oh, yes,” she said, “I often won
der,” she added pensively, "what it’s
done for, though. It's to show you're
a free citizen, the same as naturaliza
tion papers, ain't it?”
FIT THE GROCER
Wife Made the Suggestion.
A grocer has excellent opportunity
to know the effects of special foods
on his customers. A Cleveland
grocer has a long list of customers
that have been helped in health by
leaving off coffee and using Postum
Food Coffee.
He says, regarding his own expe
rience; "Two years ago I had been
drinking coffee, and must say that I
was almost wrecked in my nerves.
"Particularly in the morning I was
so irritable and upset that I could
hardly wait until the coffee was
served, and then I had no appetite for
breakfast, and did not feel like at
tending to my store duties.
“One day my wife suggested that
inasmuch as I was selling so much
Postum there must be some merit in
it and suggested that we try it. I
took home a package and she pre
pared it according to directions. The
result was a very happy' one. My
nervousness gradually disappeared,and
today I am all right. I would advise
everyone afflicted in any way with
nervousness or stomach troubles, to
leave off coffee and use Postum Food
Coffee.” "There's a Reason.” Read
"The Road to Wellville," in pkgs.

CUTS OFF LITTLE HOIK BOARD
Continuous Quotations No Longer Re
ceived Fom the Cotton Exchange—
Other Places Affected by Action.
Little Rock. Ark.—For the present,
at least, the Little Rock Board of
Trade will not receive continuous quo
tations from the New York Cotton Ex
change. This service has been stopped
by the New Ybrk exchange, and is ef
fective in all the Southern states which
have anti-bucket shop laws.
The Board of Trade wiil continue to
receive continuous quotations from
New Orleans, Liverpool and Chicago.
The definite reason for New York’s ac
tion in this regard is not known in
Little Rock. It is beliveed, however,
the action is a retaliation for the laws
considered objectionable. Just as soon
as the Board of Trade learns the real
reason for the action taken by the
New York exchange, a meeting of the
Board of Directors will be held. If the
service can be re-established the di
rectors will do it.
When the Arkansas act forbidding
the practice of dealing in futures was
app^ved the Little Rock Board of
Trade did not receive quotations at all
for several days. It was finally arrang
ed to get the quotations daily from
the big cotton exchanges under spe
cial contracts. The quotations are
for the sole use of members of the
Board of Trade, no one except a mem
her of the organization having the priv
ilege of obtaining the quotations.
The receiving of quotations in this
state simply gives the cotton trade a
“line"' on the market. It is not law
ful to deal in futures. Just how much
it costs to get the quotations has never
been made public by the Little Rock
Board of Trade.
George R. Brown, secretary of the
organization, stated he was not sur
prised at the action of the New York
Cotton Exchange, although he did not
know the exact reasons for the action.
The Board of Trade and the New
York Cotton Exchange have always
been on friendly terms, and this is not
a direct move against the Little Rock
organization.
Treasure In Blind Chimney.
Georgetown, Del.—Finding a small
box, said to contain gold, Henry Wil
ley, who is employed in tearing down
one of the oldest buildings in George
town, refuses to divulge its secret. He
discovered the box in a blind chimney
and took it home. Some of his neigh
bors claim to have seen him counting
gold pieces and one man declares that
there were several glittering stones.
The “treasure” is supposed to have
been hidden in the chimney by Dage
worthy Jones, an eccentric character,
who inhabited the house about 1821,
and who was reputed to have been
wealthy.
Arrest Both Teams.
Mobile, Ala.—Deputy Sheriff Nugent
Sunday afternoon arrested the IS ball
players and Umpire Pfenniger, wno
participated in the game between
Montgomery and Mobile Sunday, on
charges of playing ball on Sunday.
Bond was immediately provided and
the game proceeded without interfer
ence.
This arrest is the second for alleged
violations of Sunday baseball law this
month and the local association an
nounced that another game will be
played next Sunday between Ttlanta
and Mobile.
Mercury For Consumptives.
Washington.—Recent advices from
the new naval hospital at Fort L,yon.
Colo., confirm the promising report
made by Surgeon B. L. Wright, on du
ty at that sanitarium, regarding the
results of treating tuberculosis by the
use of mercury. Naval surgeons at the
hospital have been closely observing
the thirty cases subjected to this treat
ment, and the progress, it is said, has
been such as to add to the confidence
that they have made an important dis
covery.
Texan Shoots Man.
Detroit. Mich.—A man known as Si
las Treese, who is said to have wealthy
parents at San Antonio, Tex., is under
arrest as a result of the shooting of
William Murphy of 2S1 Second street
Saturday night. Murphy is at Emer
gency hospital in a critical condition.
The two men were neighbors, and it is
charged that Treese became enrrjged
by Murphy charging him with being
drunk.
Bandits Slay 2. Hurt 3.
Talcahuano, Chile.—An alarming in
crease here of armed robbery is evi
dent. Saturday four armed bandits
murdered two well-known residents in
the center of the town and wounded
three others. The police declare that
they are unable to prevent these out
breaks owing to their Insufficient num
bers.
Patrolman Ward Dies.
Memphis.—Patrolman J. A. Ward,
shot Saturday night by W. W. Brown,
his next door neighbor, as the result
of a family quarrel over some chickens
and ducks, died at (i:30 o’clock Sun
day evening. Brown was released on
a $5,000 bond.,
Memphis.—New'S reached here late
Sunday night of the rescue of the tow
boat Pittsburg with 43 barges of coal
of the estimated value of $200,000 by
the Ferd Herold, near Tiptonville,
Tenn. The Pittsburg is the property
of the Pittsburg Coal Company, and
was disabled and drifting down stream
in a help'ess condition. Capt. Flanni
gan of ihe Ferd Herold immediately
ordered his boat to the rescue and with
both crews saved cargo and boats prob
ably from total loss. The Pittsburg
was anchored safely on the Tennessee
ban!:.

When you rend in this newspaper

convince you that it is to your interest
to buy his goods, and you go to a
dealer where such articles are usually
handled for sale, do not let the dealer
or any one of his clerks sell you some

The
General Demand
of the Well-Informed of the World ha9
always been for a simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; a laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its com

wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex
cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for its remark

That is one of many reasons why

the preference by the Well-Informed.

MARK TWAIN ON MONEY.
Humorist Points Out What He Consid
ers Some Wrong Conceptions.
Mark Twain said that the financial
panic has caused a wrong idea of the
use and value of money.
“The spendthrift says that money,
being round, was made to roll. The
miser says that, being flat, it was
made to stack up. Roth are wrong.
“Strangely wrong, too, in their ideas
about money are the veteran Aus
tralian gold diggers. These simple
old fellows, though worth perhaps a
half million or more, live in the sim
ple dug-outs and shanties of their lean
early days.
“Once, lecturing, I landed at an Aus
tralian port. There was no porter in
sight to carry my luggage. Seeing a
rough-looking old fellow leaning
against a post with his hands in his
pockets, I beckoned to him and said:
“ 'See here, if you carry these bags
up to the hotel I’ll give you half a
crown.’
"The man scowled at me. He took
three or four gold sovereigns from his
pocket, threw them into the sea,
scowled at me again, and walked away
without a word.”

De Organ's Busted.
In a little church in Maryland, not
far from Washington, the motive pow
er for the organ comes from the strong
arm of an industrious Irishman.
During a recent service there the
choir got into trouble and, to cap the
climax, during the confusion that en
sued. the organ suddenly stopped.
The situation was not greatly re

into the auditorium a hoarse whisper:
"Sing, all youse! Sing like the divil!
