Miss M. Cartledge gives some
helpful advice to young girls.
Her letter is but one of thou
sands which prove that nothing
is so helpful to young girls who
are just arriving at the period ot
womanhood as Lydia E. Pink
ham’s Vegetable Compound.
" Dear Mbs. Pinkjtam : — I cannot
praise Lydia E. Pink ham's Vege
table Compound too highly, for it
is the only medicine I ever tried which
cured me. I suffered much from my
first menstrual period, I felt so weak
and dizzy at times 1 could not pursue
my studies with tho usual interest.
My thoughts became sluggish, 1 had
headaches, backaches and sinking
spells, alsopainb in the back and lower
limbs. In fact, I was sick all over.
“ Finally, after many other remedies
had been tried, we were advised to get
Lydia E. Pink ham’s Vegetable
Compound, and I am pleased to say
that after taking it only two weeks, a
wonderful change for the better took
place, and in a short time I was in
perfect health.- I felt buoyant, full of
life, and found all work a pastime. I
am Indeed glad to tell my experience
with Lydia E. Plnkham’s 'Vege
table Compound, for it made a dif
ferent girl of me. Youra very truly.

Art of Tempering Copper.
I During the last week some Interest
ing experiments were made by D. L*e
' mon, who recently rediscovered the
lost art of tempering copper. These
experiments show that copper has a
strength at least five or six times
that of steel. Another curious fea
ture about the process Is that copper.
Instead of bursting, as does steel,
when put to the test of an enormous
pressure, will simply draw apart. This
I quality, tboso acquainted with tho
metal say. will make It of extraordi
nary value for use In steam boilers
and other similar machinery, since it
will minimize the danger of explo
i slons. Arrangements are also being
i made to show some of the tempered
■ copper at the St. Louis exposition. It
Is proposed to manufacture from the
, metal small boilers, guns and other ar
tides, to show the uses to which It
may be put.
Negotiations are also pending tot
the purchase of a site upon which It
is proposed to at once erect an ex
perimenting station. According to
plans the proposed station will bn In
operation before thd middle of tbe
summer.—Denver News.
