?j;'9-V?;g3Sf?-V-:'w -.-. "d ... -i --. -.,, Wf i THE ST. LOUIS EEPUBLIC: FRIDAY. ftPRIL 29. 1904. EEJu.n.W&a i-i A Cordial Invitation to Every Sick and Ailing Working Girl. It is to these girls that Mrs. Pinkham holds out a helping: hand, and extends a cordial invitation to correspond with her. Her long record of success in treating -woman's ills makes her letters of advice of untold value to every ailing working girl, and from hcrwide experience and f-kill she nnieklv points the way to health. Iler advice is free, and all letters are held by her in tlie strictest confidence. Address, Sirs. Pinkham. Lynn, Mass. Don't put off writing her until your health is wrecked. Girls who work are particularly susceptible to female ills, especially when obliged to stand on their feet from morning until night. Day in and day out, month in and month out, the year through, the working girl toils ; sue Ls often the bread winnerof the family, and must work that others may live; whether t.he is sick or well, whether it rains or shines, whether it is warm or cold she must get to her place of employment and perform the duties exacted from her. Among this class the symptomsof female diseases are early manifest by weak and aching backs, pain in the lower limbs and lower part of the stomach; in consequence of frequent wettingof the feet monthly periods become painful and irregular, and frequently there are faint and dizzy spells, with loss of appetite, until life Ls a burden and it is hard work to drag about. All these symptoms point to a derangement of the female organism, and if taken in time can be easily and permanently cured. g)i A .-A 4 V &to -1 ni i jOtfl bfl i i v j e r :l !

Mimine From the Palace of Asricnltnre. A mystery which would be well worth the effort of a Sherlock Holmes to solve Is Interesting the World's Fair attaches in the Palace of Agriculture, and agitat ing to a high degree the minds of the Portuguese Commissioners. Portugal has an exhibit in the Palace of Agr'culture and included in this exhibit are fifty bottles of the rarest wine that was ever s:nt to St. Lou's. This wine, it ls said authorita lively, is so old that the eg of it has been forgotten, even by the owners, snd In price it is the most costly wine ever imported to America. It is contained in quart bottles, and the cctual value of the wine is $30 per quart. It is a worderful wine, so the Portuguese Commissioners say. and one drink of it will place a man on the borders of the happy hunting grounds!. Two drinks of the wine will make the imbiber believe that he Is a part owner of the earth, and three drh kj will make him feel greater and wealthier than J. Pierpont Morgan before tl.e slump In United States Steel. Someone In the Palace of Agriculture has been unable to resist the temptation offered by this rare old wine. Having heard of its wonderful properties, an at tache in the Palace of Agriculture has defied the law and quaffed several times from a. bottle containing the remarkable Portuguese liquor. Who tho miscreant is. the Portuguese Commissioners have not the remotest idea. They know that one ot the bottles was opened, probably in the still hours of tho early morning, and that part of its con tents was drained. They are highly Indignant. They could excuse almost any crime save this th'ft of tho rare wine, valued at $S0 per quart bottle. Knowing that the thief will advertise the marvelous properties of the old wine and substantiate in full all that the Portu guese have claimed for it. the Commis sioners are fearful of more pilfering, and xs a safeguard they have applied to the World's Fair management for a special guard to stand duty at night over the Portuguese exhibit. It is also asked that the guard be a man of most temperate habits: one who is capable of coping with temptation, and who will do his duty, even to the sacrifico of satisfying hilarity. The management of the World's Fair has the Portugese application under con sideration and promises to make a thor ough investigation. Colonel Klngsburv says that all Jeffer son Guard", assigned to duty at tho Palace of Agriculture, have reported for roll call, eo that it could hardly have been a World's Fair policeman. One of the London Bobbies who is a sleuth of acknowledged ability and a wearer of gum shoes, with double soles, has suggested the possibility of the miss ing wine having evaporated from old age.
