Remember
This
Fact
That in addressing' Mrs. Pinkham
you are communicating with a woman
a woman whose experience in treat
ing woman's ills is greater that, that
of any living person male or female.
A woman can talk freely to a wo
man when it is revolting to relate her
private troubles to a man.
Many women suffer in silence and
drift along from bad to worse, know
ing full well that they should have
immediate assistance, but a natural
modesty impels them to shrink from
exposing themselves to the questions
and probable examination of even
their family physician. It is unneces
sary. Without money or price you can
consult a woman, whose knowledge
from actual experience is unequaled.
Women suffering from any form of
female weakness are invited to freely
communicate with Mrs. l'inkham at
Lynn, Mass.
AH letters are received, opened,
read and answered by women only.
This is a positive fact not a mere
statement. It is certified to by the
mayor and postmaster of Lynn and
others whose letters, all in a 1 ittle book,
Mrs. Pinkham has just published.
Write for a copy, it is free. Thus
has been established the eternal con
fidence between Mrs. Pinkham and the
women of America which has never
been broken and has induced more
than 100,000 sufferers to write her for
advice during the last few months.
Out of the vast volume of experience
which she has to draw from, it is
more than possible that she has gained
the very knowledge that will help
your case. She asks nothing in re
Urn except your good-will, and her
Rvice has relieved thousands. Here

"Dear Mrs. Pinkham I feerthat it
is owing to Lydia E. Pinkham s Vege
table Compound that I am alive to
day. It has taken me out of a sick
bed where I had lain for six weeks
with a good doctor to tend me twice a
day. My trouble was change of life,
had frequent hemorrhages. Your medi
cine checked the flow right away. I
am now able to do all my work, and
backache is unknown. I am forty
three years of age and enjoying good
health." Mrs. Annie Foster, Cascade
Locks, Oregon.
" Dear Mrs. Pinkham When I first
wrote to you, I was in a very bad con
dition. I was passing through the
change of life, and the doctors said 1
had bladder and liver trouble. I had
suffered for nine years. Doctors failed
to do me any good. Since I have taken
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound my health has improved very
much. 1 will gladly recommend your
medicine to others and am sure that it
will prove as great a blessing to them
as it has to me." Mrs. Geo. H. June,
801 De Kalb Ave., Brooklyn, N. Y.
"Dear Mrs. Pinkham It was my
ardent desire to have a child. I had
Vp married three years and could
oiobecoiic a mother, so wrote to 3-ou
to find out the reason. After follow
jf ing your kind advice and taking Lydia
IS. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, I
" became the mother of a beautiful baby
boy, the joy of our home. He is a fat,
f healthy baby, thanks to your medi

in the right side of abdomen, hip. leg,
and back. If you can do me any good,
please write." Mrs. Nina Chase,
Fulton, N. Y., December 20, 1897.
"Dear Mrs. Pinkham I followed
your instructions, and now I want
every woman suffering from female
trouble to know how good your advice
and medicine is. The doctor advised
an operation. I could not bear to
think of that, so followed your advice.
I got better right off. I took six bottles
of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com

Sanative Wash ; also took your Liver
Pills, and am cured." Mrs. Nina
Chase, Fulton, N. Y., December 12.
1898.
"Dear Mrs. Pinkham Have been
suffering for over a year and had three
doctors. At time of menstiuation I
suffer terrible pains in back and
ovaries. I have headache nearly every
day, and feel tired all the time. The
doctor said my womb was out of place.
Would be so glad if you could help me."
Mrs. Carl Vobs, Sac City, Iowa,
August 1, 1898.
" Please accept my sincere thanks for
the good your advice and Lydia E.

WORLDS BEYOND NEPTUNE.
The Search Now Heine Made by Pro
fessor Lait of Denmark.
In 1840 Adams and Le Yeirier point-
j ed out that the motion of the planet
I Uranus was disturbed In a progressive
manner probably by an unknown plan-
et. The planet Neptune was discover
ed in that year in consequence of their
calculation, as every one knows.
The methods that they employed have
been perfected since that time aud the
theory of Neptune has been- critically
examined by Prof. Newcomb and
others to see if it yielded any evidence
i for the existence of unknown major
' planets revolving about the sun in or
bits exterior to those of Uranus and
; Neptune. Prof. Newcomb's conclusions
were that the evidence was not yet de
cisive either way The problem has
lately been attacked again by Hans
Lau of Copenhagen, who finds evidence
that two such planets exist. At least
if the major planets pointed out by him
do exist the observations of Uranus and
Neptune which he has used (1G90-1805)
would represent the theoretical mo
i Uons of these planets better than they
are represented, supposing his planets
not to exist. His two theoretical plan
ets have these elements:
First planet Distance from the sun,
forty-seven times the earth's distance;
mass, one-twelve thousand nine hun
dredths of the sun's mass.
Second planet Distance from the
sun, seventy-one times the earth's dis
tance; mass, one twenty-eight hun
dredths of the sun's mass.
Both of these planets are thus exte
rior to Neptune, whose distance from
the sun is thirty times the earth's dis
tance. The first planet has a mass
somewhat greater than that of Nep
tune, the second a mass somewhat
greater than that of Saturn. Their
stellar magnitude would be about tenth
aud hence they are easily photograph
ed. Prof. Pickering, director of the
Harvard college observatory, has Insti
tuted a search for them on the photo
graphic maps of the sky which are in
process of construction at Cambridge.
Such planets as these would have a
small, though appreciable, disk, anc
would therefore differ in appearance
from the fixed stars in their neighbor
hood. It is likely that if they veritably
exist they could be detected by their
appearance alone in the great tele
scopes of the Yerkes and Lick observa
tories. The researches undertaken by Mr.
Lau are very delicate and it is far from
certain that the data are sufficient for
the purpose. The method is adequate
and sooner or later will lead to a com
plete solution.
An Interesting Coincidence.
In 1884, just after Commodore Schley
reiurned from rescuing the survivors
of the Greely Arctic expedition, the
Massachusetts Humane Society pre
sented him with a handsome medal for
his achievement, and Benjamin W.
Crowninfield, one of the Bay State's
great orators, was sent to Washington
to make the presentation speech.
On the way to the capital Mr. Crown
Infiela fell in with an old and prominent
resident of Boston, who took the privi
lege of asking the orator what his mis
sion In Washington was. In reply the
old gentleman was shown the medal
and told what was to be done with it.
"Strange coincidence," mused the
venerable gentleman from the Hub.
"Forty-four years ago, In 1840, I rode
over this same line and me't Gen. Win
field Scott I was as inquisitive then
as now, and asked him where he was
going. He said, that a son of his friend.
Mr. Schley, had been named for him,
and that he was going to Maryland to
see the baby. Nearly half a century is
past, and now I find you going to
Washington to carry a medal to the
man that Gen. Scott visited when the
man was an infant,"
Tired Eyes.
Few persons, when traveling by
train, allow their eyes to rest If they
do not read they watch the scenery.
When reading you try to hold the book
or paper steady, but the types jiggle
Irregularly back and forth as the result
of the motion of the car and the shakl
; ness of your hand. Your eyes also do
a deal of dancing, not only in pursuit
' of the bobbing letters, but in addition
because you also are shaken about
more or less by the motion of the train.
Imagine the effect on the muscles of
the eye! First, the eye itself has an
! unsteady rest; second, it is trying to
fasten itself on that which is more un
i steady still. Reading is not the only ill.
! Fix your eye on things close to the car
I on flowers, fenceposts, culverts, tree
and the effect is as bad as would be
: brought on by reading. A headache i
. the first warning, but that becomes
common after a while, and is not heed
i ed any more than the headache that
I follows unwise eating. There is closer
I connection between the stomach and
I the eyes on one side and a headache on
the other than most people imagine.
The Great Towns of Europe.
While the population of Europe, esti

I nearly 370,000,000, there has been a still

The Human Brain.
A German biologist has calculated
that the human brain contains 300,000,

DURING THE GOLD FEVER.
Ninepins Were Played with Bottles of
Cnampaxue In Melbourne.
Gold threatened to become as com
mon as silver in the days of Solomon.
In one year 12,000,000, in eigbt years
95,000,000, were won. Some men at
Golden Point made as much as 400
each a day. Another exceptionally
lucky party unearthed thirty-four
pounds of gold in one day. No wonder
that such "pockets" were termed "jew
elers' shops!" Occasionally a nugget
worth 10,000 was unearthed. The re
sult of this sudden influx of wealth
almost without labor, aud with risks
whit-h are infinitesimal as compared
to Klondike, was the temporary demor
alization of the population. Melbourne,
in the height of the gold fever, has
been described by one who knew it
well as "a fevered, drunken, delirious
pandemonium.'' The lucky ones aud
there were thousands of them squan
dered their riches in the most reckless
fashion. Some of their fantastic tricks
would scarcely be credited were they
not attested by witnesses still living.
The game of ninepins, we are told, was
played with bottles of champagne, for
which he who broke least had to pay ;
dozens of the same costly wine were
emptied Into tubs, and drunk from tin
pannikins, spirits and beer being added
to give "body" to the beverage; one
man, in Imitation of Caligula, shod his
horse with gold; sandwiches made of
banknotes were devoured; silver wrap
ped up in banknotes was thrown to
popular actresses instead of flowers;
in fact, money was so plentiful that the
reckless diggers could not "knock it
down" fast enough. They thought they
only had to dig a few feet in the earth
to get plenty more, and for a time, it
almost seemed as if this were so. Such
were some of the characteristics of

How a Young Woman Saved Money
for a Wedding Tour.
A promising young lawyer who has
an office in the Girard Building has
just made the delightful discovery that
his fiancee, is also a financier. The
young man's sweetheart resides in Ger
mantown, and for several months past
he has called upon her regularly thrice
a week. When he first met the girl,
two years ago, he was, of course, ex
tremely anxious to make a good im
pression, and he lavished many pres
ents upon her. The girl's parents are
quite well to do, but she disapproves
of any sort of display or prodigality,
and when, in the natural course of
events, the young man proposed and
was acaepted, she felt it to be her privi
lege and her duty to read him a little
lecture on "Economy." She called his
attention to the fact that every time
he called he had been in the habit of
bringing flowers and candy to the value
o. a dollar or two. She suggested that
in the future he should discontinue the
presents, handing over a silver dollar
instead whenever he came to see her.
He laughed, for he thought she was
joking, but she speedily assured him
that she was much in earnest. So he
paid his dollar regularly, and finally
came to the conclusion that the money
was . being devoted to charity. The
wedding day was set for next month,
and an extended tour was contemplat
ed. Unfortunately, the young lawyer
recently took a "flyer" in stocks, and
dropped so much money that he had to
notify his fiancee that their wedding
trip must be dispensed with. The dear
girl laughed at him, and, leaving the
room for a moment, presently returned
with a satchel containing 256 silver
lollars. Their plans will not be changed.

Prisoner Tries Hia Voice and Ia Dis

A few years ago a young man dressed
in tattered clothes was locked up at the
Desplaines street police station charged
with disorderly conduct Though his
clothes were torn and his hair unkempt
made his appearance look like that of
a tramp, he was not 1 11 the eyes of the
policeman who arrested him for doing
nothing he looked like an ordinary beg
gar. He was taken to the police station re
gardless of his pleadings and put in a
dingy cell, where he spent nearly two
days, and had it not been for the police
captain he might have stayed there
longer.
It was while the other prisoners were
being tried in court and the police cap
tain was sitting in his private office
looking over reports that a sweet tenor
voice was heard singing "My, Old Ken
tucky Home." The moment the sweet
notes, which were coming from the
cellroom, struck the ears of the police
captain he listened a moment and drop
ped the reports he was reading on his
desk until the song sung was finished.
"When the song was finished the cap
tain ordered the prisoner to be brought
before him. When the singer, who was
the shabby-dressed young man, appear
ed before the police official, the latter
asked the young man to repeat the
song, which he did.
When he had finished the officer look;
ed at him a moment and said, "Young
man, you have a good voice." When
the captain asked him where he lived
and what he did he bowed his head as

When the police official learned under
what charge he was being held a pris

Many a woman, sick and
weary of life, dragged down by
weakening drains, painful ir
regularities, depression, and the
hundred and one ailments
which affect women only, has
found in Pe-ru-na a bright star
of hope, which has changed
her misery to joy, her suffer
ing to health.
No woman need suffer from
the derangements peculiar to
her sex, if she will give Pe-ru-na
a fair trial.
The majority of weaknesses
which make woman's life a
burden, spring from a simple
cause. The mucous membrane
which lines the pelvic organs
becomes weakened and in
flamed owing to strain, cold,
overwork, etc. This causes
catarrhal congestion, inflam
mation, painful irregularities,
depression of spirits, irritabil
ity, weakness and suffering. It
shows in the haggard lines of
the face, the dull eyes, the sallow
complexion and angular form.
For the prompt cure of such ail
ments try Pe-ru-na. It drives away
"the blues," clears the complexion,
brightens the eyes, changes thin
ness to plumpness, and cures pains,
aches and drains, because it imme
diately strikes at the root of such
troubles and removes the cause.

A Mechanical Resuscitation.
Professor Lanorde, of the Academy
of Medicine, Paris, and M. Augnste
Monchel have devised a little machine
for restoring persons in a state of sus
pended animation to life by the method
of "lingual traction," a method now
used with great success in cases of
drowning, lightning stroke, electric
shock and suffocation. The tongue is
drawn out rytbmioally, so as to stimu
late the breathing organs, and this
method has been effective in cases
given up as hopeless, but only after a
very long application. The friction
sometimes cesds to be kept up for
three hours before reanimation, and,
as the new machine is worked by an
electric motor and quite automatic, it
saves much laborious exertion, and can
save life where the uiual methods
would fail.
There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together,
and until the last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a constitu
tional disease, and therefore requires constitu
tional treatment. Rail's Catarrh Cure, man
ufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio,
is l he only constitutional cure on the market.
It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to

Eruptions
Dry, moist, scaly tetter, all forms of
eczema or salt rheum, pimples and
other cutaneous eruptions proceed from
humors, either inherited, or acquired
through defective digestion and as
similation. To treat these eruptions with drying
medicines is dangerous,
The thing to do is to help the sys
tem discharge the humors, and to
strengthen it against their return.
Hood's Sarsaparilla permanently cured J.
G. Hines, Franks. 111., of eczema, from which
he had suffered for some time; and Miss

her body, by which she had been greatly
troubled. There are more testimonials in
favor of this great medicine than can ba
published.

No External
Symptoms.
The blood may be in bad condition,
yet with no external signs, no skis
eruption or sores to indicate it. The
symptoms in such cases being a variable
appetite, poor digestion, an indescribable
weakness and nervousness, loss of flesh
and a general run-down condition of the
system clearly showing the blood ha!
lost its nutritive qualities, has become thin
and watery. It is in just such cases that
S. S. S. has done some of its quickest and
most effective work by building up the
blood and supplying the elements lackinf
to make it strong and vigorous.
