■ A severe case of Ovarian ■
Trouble and a terrible operation
avoided. Mrs. Emmons tells
bow she was saved by the use
of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound.
“ Dear Mrs. Pinkiiam:— I am so
pleased with the results obtained from
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
* ompdlilid that I feel R a duty and
a privilege to write you about it.
I suffered for more than five years
with ovarian troubles, causing an
unpleasant discharge, a great weak
ness, and at times a faintness would
come over me which no amount of
medicine, diet, or exercise seemed to
correct. Your Vegetable Compound
found the weak spot, however, within
a few weeks — and saved me from
an operation — all m3* troubles had
disappeared, and I found nwsclf onco
more healthy and well. Words fail to
describe the real, true, grateful feeling
that is in my heart, and 1 want to tell
every sick and suffering sister. Don’t
dally with medicines you know noth
ing about, but take Lydia K. Pink
ham’s Vegetable Compound, and
take m3’ word for it. you will be a dif
ferent woman in a short time.”— Mrs.
Lauba Emmons, Walkerville. Ont. —

A BICYCLE PROPOSAL
BY JOHN WICKLIFFE GRAY.
Until that summer I had never be
lieved that I was a timid man. But the
happenings of a few weeks led me to
the conclusion that I had my share and
more.
A girl with blue eyes did it. As in
most cases where a man has found him
self face to face with himself, it was a
woman who held the mirror.
It was the old story of scouting at love
until I met the one girl, and then 1 want
ed to propose. But what with the doubts
that assailed me as to the probable re
ception of a proposal, and my new-born
timidity, I could never gather together
sufficient courage at the proper time to
give expression to the thoughts that kept
me awake at night. I carefully formu
lated plan after plan to rid my mind of
its burden, but one after another they
came to naught through my disgusting
shyness—cowardice, if you will. I am
I half inclined to believe that Beatrice
knew my condition all the time. But
she had a keen sense of humor, and I
breach d that, silvery laughter more than
a whole regiment of regulars. She could
J grow serious in a moment, and it was
this mood I liked best. But. until that
sunny day, when my bicycle helped me
through. I had always missed the point.
It lacked but four days of my departure
from the springs, and I knew to deiay
i might mean to fail altogether.
Delay and defeat were the words that
hummed through my brain like a sprock
et wheel as we spun down the lane that
morning. We were out after an early
! breakfast, and on that short journey
! a-wheel I had determined to throw all
my chances'in the balance and find their
j Intrinsic worth. .Just, how I was going
to begin I had not determined, and I
thought that for once I would leave the
matter open for the seizure of the first
1 opportunity.
The morning air was crisp and cool.
The roadside flowers seemed nodding us
a cheery good morning in the light
breeze. Now and then from the trees
came the call of a bird, and, making a
shiny lilac!-: streak in the air, a crow
would bend his flight to a lonely tree
in the fields, calling to his mate.
Bee and I had said little until we
reached the broad pike.
“Want to race?” she called back to
me from her point of vantage a few
lengths ahead. Now I knew what that
meant. Bee was the better rider, for
instead of taking a course of indoor
physical culture she had adopted golf,
tennis and a bicycle as the most enjoy
able method of obtaining exercise and
! health.
“Trying to tease,” I said. “But go
ahead. I ll do my best. Want to bet
anything?”
“No, not when I am certain of the re
i suit,” she laughed.
I grinned appreciation and asked:
“How far?"
“The two mile post,” she cried, and
we were off.
Bee sprinted, and so did L But the
distance between us remained about the
same, and precluded conversation, even
harl not the pace attained the same end.
Soon the sprockets were singing a
steady song to pebbles that spun back
ward from the rubber tires. We were
running at 20 miles an hour down the
best piec e of road in the section.
I settled to a steady speed, not quite
my best, and Bee did the same, saving
strength for the last half mile. The
wind whistled a merry tune to the time
we kept with our pedals. A covey of
partridges fled with sharp chirps at our
whirlwind advance. I felt and noticed
little else beside the trim figure, with
flying wisps of brown hair, just ahead
j of me.
Of a sudden B"e began to draw ahead
of me.
“Put your heart into the game,” she
called back to me, with her head half
turned as she spoke. She was laughing
out of pure enjoyment or the exercise,
and perhaps my probable discomfiture.
My pride was nettled, and it must have
increased my strength to a considerable
degree. Soon I was close behind her,
and with the wheels buzzing like mad
things, 1 was even. One more spurt, and
by a tremendous effort I was ahead!
“Get your hand in the game,” I called
! back, paraphrasing htr own slang. “My
I heart and your hand.” I added by the
1 force of an inspiration, “a match race!”
The second mile post was not more
than a hundred yards ahead, and I was
beginning to believe I should win. I
had no time to look back, fearing a loss
i of my little gain
But neither was to have the victory.
Bee's front wheel advanced slowly,
but surely, until it was even with my
handle-bars, and as we arrived oppo
site the post, we were side by side.
It was a tie!
“You got your hand in.” I laughed
later under the trees where we were
| seated.
"Yes,” she agreed.
“And niv whole heart was in it,” I
added, cautiously.
The blue eyes looked into mine and
; seemed to read what was there. And
then in the fear that my shyness would
return, I said quickly, incoherently:
“Your hand, my heart, a‘match, the
tic—Bee—” and—
^ ell, our bicycle will accompany us
on the honeymoon, even though it be as
excess baggage.

Miss Amanda Johnson, Fairchild, Wis., writes:
“ I write to tell you liow mucli Pemna benefited me.
For a number of years I had pain in my head around my
eyes, and I thought it was because my eyes needed treat
ment, so I went to an oculist and had glasses fitted to rav
eyes and wore them for some time, but felt no relief
whatever. In fact, 1 felt worse than before, and came to
the conclusion that the trouble was not with my eyes, but
with my head a nd that it must bo catarrh. As so many
of my friends had used Peruna with benefit for this
trouble, I thought I would try it. 1 was not sorry that
I did so, for in a short time 1 began to improve, and in
four weeks my eyes were in splendid condition, ray
general health was much improved and all the catarrh
of the head was gone. 1 was glad to get rid of this
trouble and am glad to endorse such a good medicine as
Peruna.”—Miss Amanda Johnson.

Hundreds of Women Cured byPe-ru-na
of Annoying Catarrh.
DR. HARTMAN lias probably done
more than any other physician
toward popularizing a means of
escape from the facial deformities, such
as watery eyes, twisted nose, offensive
breath, dry cracked lips, due to the
| ravaging effects of catarrh.
He has made chronic catarrh a life
long study. Ills remedy, popularly
known as Peruna, is the most famous
remedy for catarrh in existence.
Probably there is not a man or woman,
boy or girl, within the bounds of the
United States that has not heard of Pe
runa. IJy far the largest majority have
used Peruna.
The multitude of people that have
been cured of chronic catarrh by using
Peruna can never be known.

Many a girl has regained her faded
beauty, many a matron has lengthened
the days of her comely appearance by
using i’eruna.
Peruna produces clean mucous mem
branes. the basis of facial symmetry
and a perfect complexion.
Tbe women have not been slow to dis
cover that a course of Peruna will do
more toward restoring yout hful beauty
titan till the devices known to science.
While it is true that Peruna cures ca
tarrh wherever located, yet it is advisa
ble for everyone to use Peruna as a
I preventive and not wait until catarrh
has fastened itself in some part of the
system.
Peruna acts quickly and beneficially
on the inflamed mucous membranes
lining' the different organs of the body.
Thus it will cure catarrh wherever
located.
If you do not derive prompt and satis
factory results from the use of Peruna,
