Many Women in this Condition Re
gain Health by Taking Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Convincing Proof of This Fact.
* Itidgway, Penn. — "I suffered from female
trouble with backache and pain in my side for over
seven months so I could not do any of my work. I
was treated by three different doctors and was
getting discouraged when my sister-in-law told me
how Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound had
helped her. I decided to try it, and it restored my
health, so I now do all of my housework which is
not light as I have a little boy three years old.
— Mrs. O. M. Hiiines, Ridgway, Penn.
Mr». Lindsey Now Keeps House For Seven.
Tennille, G a. —"I want to tell you how much I have been benefited
by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. About eight years ago I
rot in such a low state of health I was unable to keep house for three in
the family. I had dull, tired,dizzy feelings, cold feet and hands nearly
all the time and could scarcely sleep at all. The doctor said I had a
severe case of ulceration and without an operation I would always
be an invalid, but I told him I wanted to wait awhile. Our druggist
advised my husband to get Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
and it has entirely cured me. Now I keep house for seven and work
in the garden some, too. I am so thankful I got this meaicme. I fee
as though it saved my life and have recommended it to others and
they have been benefited".—Mrs. W. E. Lindsey, R. R. 3, Tennille, Ga.

Sore corns, hard corns, soft corns or

For little cost one can get a small

which will positively rid one's feet of
every corn or callus without pain.
This simple drug dries the moment
it is applied and does not even irri

BAD HABIT OF UNTIDINESS
Cities Spend Much Money on Parks
and Then Tolerate Junkheaps I
and Refuse-Piled Alleys.
The other day we walked by a par
ticularly attractive suburban resi
dence. The house was g<»»l and tint
broad lawn showed both taste ami
care. Like a pretty little girl in a be
coming Sunday school dress, with her
hair curled, the premises made you
think pleasantly that somebody s ai
fection was centered upon it. It was
so attractive that we turned into the
cross street in order to walk along ;
that side of the grounds. A garage 1
stood at the corner of the grounds
abutting on an alley; and fairly in the ;
mouth of the alley, unavoidably catch
ing the eye of whoever passed down
.the cross street, lay a heap of junk
and offal, evidently thrown out from
the garage and the house. The alley
itself looked as though it might lead
to a pigsty.
That is strictly typical. The alley,
of course, did not belong to the house
bolder. and he did not care a rap how
It looked ; so, with one hand he offered
the passer-by a rose, while with the
other he hit him In the eye with an old
tin can.
We do litter up the landscape abom
inably. It Is a national habit that
ought to lie broken. Cities and towns
should not only have ordinances for
bidding unnecessary litter, but enforce
them. Anvwhere you will find a city
spending $100.000 or $1.000.000 to
make a beautiful park, and then toler
ating all sorts of needless ugliness.
Any woman will tell you there is
no u*m in wearing a fine dross along
with a hat that has been fished <>ut of
a garbage can; for the dress simply
emphasizes the hat. The more we
spend on parks and front jards the
less tolerable junkheaps and refuse
piled alleys become. What cities and
towns are insisting upon reasonable
sightliness?—Saturday livening Post.

STUCCO IS IN FOUR CLASSES
-.
It May Be Used to Overcoat Old
Frame, Brick or Stone Structures
or to Cover New Buildings.
- , !
Stucco is used In four general
classes of construction. First, the over
coating of old frame structures; sec-;
ond, application to new structures by
the use of wooden or steel framework
with wooden or metal lath; third, its
application to old brick or stone struc
tures; fourth, its application to con
crete block buildings.
The first and second classes of work
require little description. In the third
class the mortar joints of the brick or
stone work are raked out to a depth <'f
about one inch, to form a key !<>r the
new stucco. The surface of the brick
<>r stone is thoroughly cleaned and wet
before applying the stucco, which
should be forced into the joints to
their full depth.
The fourth class is the application of
stucco to Portland cement concrete
I block building. This is a very attrac
tive and satisfactory method of con
I struction. The concrete block, when
I intended to be covered with stucco,
may he made with plain faces and no
special attention is required to secure
a smooth surface.

Public Fruit Trees.
Fruit trees in place of shade trees
in our parks, is the suggestion of a
reader. "Would not apple, pear, cherry
or other fruit trees make a finer dis
play in the spring," he asks, "than the
shade trees commonly used, besides
furnishing fruit later in the season?" j
"Formerly." he adds, "there wore plen- j
ty of apples on the market; now only ,
a* few are to he had. These are so j
high in price that only the rich man 1
can afford them; similar conditions;
exist in regard to other fruit. lho >
suggestion is worthy of consideration, j
and has been carried out in Germany, j
we believe, although if we hark back
to boyhood days, the memory of the
zest with which we enjoyed pilfered
fruit may suggest practical difficulties
in the way of the plan for America.—
Los Angeles Times.
Traffic Problems Adjusted.
An efficient traffic department can
save the individual shipper hundreds,
possibly thousands, of dollars each
yoxr. The traffic department of tho
present day-chamber of commerce acts
as eyes and ears for every shipper.
The maze of regulations, tariffs and
service conditions on railroads is so
intricate that one man cannot keep up
with all the changes. It is costly for
every business house to maintain a
traffic division of its own. So all of
them can go in co-operatively and get
all the service their business demands
at an insignificant cost.
Street Tree Roots Near Surface.
Nearly all street tree roots art
found within two feet of the surface.
Seldom are conditions favorable for
deeper delving. Soils should be pre
pared so that roots may penetrate to
any depth, but conditions mu-t fie in
viting. Air must freely penetrate be
yond the root zone, and there dyna
mite and wash sand down into the
rent and cracked soli that it may not
again cljse up solid.

HE PLANTED "RARE FLOWER"
«mateur Gardener Discovered The
the Brassica Campestri Was ,
Known to Others as Turnips.
"I am a victim of the 'every-man-his

in a space no larger than a tablecloth,
I have planted seeds of a dozen kinds
of vegetables and will soon be entirely
independent of the greengrocer. L
the city ordinance were not adverse to
practical economy I should finish the
meat dealer by keeping a couple of

"While I was putting in my garden a
friend of mine came by and asked why
I did not put in something b> beautiful
the front yard. 'Here,' he said, 'are
some seeds of the brassiea campes tris.
When these come up you'll have some
thing.'
"•What colored flower has it?' 1 (
asked.
"'Yellow,' was the answer.
"So I planted the seeds and they
came up promptly.
"A neighbor passing by asked what
I had in the bed. I laid written the
name brassiea campestris in my note
book, and spelled it out to him. 1 told
lam it was a rare flower with a beau
tiful yellow blossom.
" 'All right,' lie said, T have some.

mighty rotten ones. Today is Memorial
day. They are making a big noise in
