A Woman's Mistake It Is a well-known fact that Lydia E. Plnkham's Vegetable Compound has cured more women than any other remedy. It therefore must be the best possible medicine for female ills. But some women make the mistake of thinking that they will try some thing' else, simply because it is new. That mistake is often a fatal one fatal to the health and happiness of the experimenter. Is it not foolish to risk the possible results of such experiments? Is it not better to depend upon a medicine which has been tried successfully for thirty years, and which has never been found wanting? Do not therefore let any one persuade you to try some thing which they say is just as good. It cannot be just as good. Mrs. Pink ham's Compound is the best, and there can be only one best. This is not a mere assertion, but is a positive fact, admitted by hundreds of regular physicians. Rely on your own common sense, and Mrs. Pinkham's life-long experi ence, and you will make no mistake. Lkn"t experiment with your health, but take a medicine that you know is good, and is backed by such letters as these to Mrs. Pinkham : Ovarian Troubles Always Yield to Lydla E. Pink ham's Vegetable Com" pound. "I had been in poor health for twenty vears, having inflammation of ovaries and womb trouble. Although treated by physicians, I could not gain strength nor do my work, and was so low-spirited and tired of life. A friend advised me to take Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound. The first bottle strengthened me, and I wrote to you. After taking six bottles can say that I am well and can even do my own washing." Mks. M. V. Miller, No. 1033 Canal Street, New Orleans, La. " For ihree years I suffered with ovarian trouble, having inflammation and an abscess on right ovary. Had such pain in my back and head, and at times was unable to walk. Had sev eral doctors, but they did not do me much good. One doctor said that I would have to have an operation and have the ovary removed. I became discouraged and gave up all hopes of getting well. I began taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I wrote to Mrs. Pinkham and followed her directions faithfully, and am bet ter than I have been for three years. I have taken ten bottles, and my friends are surprised at my rapid im provement." Mas. W. H. Walters, Cold Spring Harbor, L. L, N.Y. Suppressed and Painful Periods Cured by Lydla Em Plnkham's Vegetable Compoundm " I was thin, sallow and nervous. I had not had my menses for over a year and a half. Doctored with several physicians in town and one specialist, but did not get any better. I finally decided to try your medicine, and wrote to you. After I had taken three bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and three of Blood Purifier, my menses returned, and I feel as well and strong as I ever did, and am gaining flesh." Miss Lena Gaines, Visalia, Tulare Co., Cal. "Before taking the Vegetable Com pound I was troubled with irregular menstruation, and suffered grat agony. My physician gave me p-'or-phine, and I remained in bea. I doc tored eight years and got no relief, and he doctors told me there was no relief for my trouble. Finally I tried Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. While taking the first bottle I felt that I was improving. I have taken seven or eight bottles, and never had anything to do me so much good. Every month my troubles have grown less and less, and now at this time I am cured." Ella Quinney, No. 22 Stage Street, Haverhill. Mass. Backache and Womb Troubles Succumb to lydla Em Plnkham's Vege table Compoundm l nave been for ten years an in valid with female weakness, and the torture and pain I suffered no tongue can tell. I never spent one week in the ten years that I was free from pain. My trouble was inflammation and congestion of womb. When I commenced to take your remedy I had been bedfast for some time under the treatment of two of our best physi cians without receiving any benefit You can imagine the benefit I de rived from Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege table Compound when I tell you that I have gained forty pounds and am well a thing I never dared to expect." Mrs. C. E. Foland, Monett, Mo. "For a number of years I was troubled with backache and lencor rhosa. I became so weak and miser able that I could not attend to my work or studies. The least effort would completely exhaust me. Physi cians failed to help me. I felt that my youth was blighted, and the life before me would be one of suffering and misery. Then a friend insisted on me taking your medicine. Before I had used one bottle I was greatly relieved. I had not known a well day for four years, but now I feel better than I have since a child, and it is all due to Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound." Miss May B. Stevenson, Alliance, O. Mrsm Pinkham has Fifty Thousand suoh Letters. TAKE IT TODAY. Don't put off tak ing the k !' j i rfiiiiuent.

It is the freqnenoy of discoveries of gold in all the leading silver producing camps of the state that gives continued new impetus to the development of the mines and adds no inconsiderable part to the mineral wealth of Colorado. Under such conditions the silver question naturally cuts very little fig ure politically, although Mr. Bryan, against the counsel of the wise and conservative element of his party, stub bornly insisted that the silver plank of the Chicago platform should be reaf firmed in its entirety as a "para mount" condition of his accepting the Domination. In the mining states, however, "sixteen-to-one" has been weighed in the balance of common sense and found wnnting. Whilom silver leaders seem to be disappearing from Colorado, or returning to the Re publican fold, and even the repeal of the Sheraum act is a blessing in dis guise. In the beginning that measure undoubtedly had -bad effect on the mining industry. Bot, while driviug the men out of employment and clos ing mines, it also impelled prospectors to the search for gold and copper, and as a striking result. Colorado possesses now one of the greatest gold -producing areas in the world. Millions of dol lars have poured into the state for in vestment.. New industries have sprung np. Old plants have increased their capacity. More men are employed and at better wages than ever before. City treasuries are full and public improve ments are progressing on every side. What is true of Colorado, applies with equal force to other mining states. Prosperity is visible everywhere and little attention is paid to silver as a live political issue. "Sixteen-to-one" will doubtless be left to take care of itself in miniDg sections during this campaign. The honest miner knows a good thing when he has it. He is not seek ing a change. And as natural causes are promoting the great mining indus try of the country, he is not liable to support any movement which relies upon extraneous or moribund theories to bring about legitimate industrial and financial results. JOHN VV. TOSTGATE. BRYAN CLAUSES ARE HERE. Manufacturers Look for Disaster if He Is Elected. Manufacturers and their immediate customers are beginning to get them selves in shape for the dull times that they know would ensue in the event ot the election of Mr. Bryan. Reports fiom all over the country indicate that "Bryan" clauses are soon to be the rule in signing new contracts. The latest is a contract entered into between the New'Ilaveu Carriage Company and the J. Curley Company, of Brooklyn. The contract specilies that the New Haven Company shall furnish the Curley Company with a certain number of car riages at a certain price until Novem ber 15, 1901. With the contract re ceived by the Curley Company was the following letter from the New Haven Company: "We enclose herein agreements signed. You will notice that we have made an indorsement at the bottom. Will you please indoise this yourself? It is just as good policy for you to in dorse it as it is for us, for you do not wish to be bound down by anything in case of such adverse circumstances as would occur in the event of Bryan's election." The indorsement reads: "This agreement to be null and void in case William J. Bryan is elected president of the United States in No vember, 1900.'' Other large concerns are indorsing important contracts in this way, their managers well knowing that a long season of business depression would follow the success of the Democratic ticket. A large Philadelphia dry goods house in placing contracts abroad in sists that the contracts be similarly in dorsed . Tne business men know what four years of Rryanism would mean to them, and the working people are equally aware of the fact. If these classes are not prosperous, they will be unable to consume as much of the products of the farm as they would in the event of Republican success, and the farmer knews the value of having an era of prosperity among those who eat and wear his products. Polling Favors McKinley. Judging by the results of the polls being taken in the big office buildings in Chicago, an immense vote will be piled up for McKinley and Roosevelt in the Republican wards of the city. That this will be true has become evi dent by the result of the poll in Mar shall Field & Co.'s big store, in the Marquette building, where the vote is five to one, and in the Monadnock building where it is six to one in favor of the administration. The Rookery, one of the largest office buildings, shows a still larger McKinley percent age, the ratio being nine to one. The vote of the Rookery in detail is as fol lows: McKinley, 1,128; Bryan. 121;' Woolley, 9; non-committal, 20; unde cided, 26; total, 1,804. This class of voters is largely the same as supported Cleveland in 1892, and indicates to a certainty how the business men of the city feel toward continuing the present good times. Croker'i Share of the Spoils. I am pleased with the outlook in New York. Things are looking much better there than a month ago. What J have said about Bryan promising jCroker a cabinet position has been sub stantiated. I know that Bryan has promised to let Croker distiibute the federal patrongae in New York, and jif Bryan is elected Croker can put former Senator Murphy in Bryan's cabinet. Chairman M. A. Hanna. Travelers Do Not Bite. Bryan managers have dropped the scheme to catch the commercial trav elers. The knights of the grip have declined to believe themselves unpros perous. The latest polls among them are: McKinley, 85; Bryan, 9; Prohi bition, 2; undecided, 5. Colorado had 1,293,058 sheep valued at $2,396,295, or $1,85 per bead in 1894. That was free trade. Colorado today has 2,185.327 sheep, valued at $6,250,036, or $2.86 per head. That is protection. Bryau said: "I am in fa vor of f;ee wool." The Sew Star Spangled Banner. On the 13th day of September, 1814, during the bombardment of Fort Mc Henry, Francis Scott Key composed the "Star Spangled Banner.' The British fleet has attacked the fort, and the peo ple were anxiously waiting tor the dawn, to see whether the fort bad sur rendered. This situation gave to Mr. Key his motive. Today our flag is floating over the Philippines. The Bryanites want to pull it down. All the patriotic citi zens of the country are waiting to see whether it floats there after the next election. The rebels who are firing on the flag shall be conquered, the Bryanites shall be defeated, and on November 7 the people of the country, with one voice shall sing: "Let the Star Spangled Banner in trimuph be waved. O'er the lands we have freed, and the peoples we've saved. The situation has inspired the "New Star Spangled Bannex" which is as follows: Oh, say, can yon see, by the far east ern lighf, What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars, after many a fight, In lauds near and far is so gallantly streaming? And the thanks in our prayer, rising high in the air Give proof to the woi Id that our nag is still there; Oh say, let that Star Spangled Banner be waved, O'er the lands we have freed, and the peoples we've saved. Oh, thus be it always, whenever we stand Between the oppressed and king's deso lation. Blest with victory and peace, may the heaven rescued land Praise the power that hath made us a powerful nation. j And onward me must, for our cause it is just; And this be our motto "In God is our Trust;" Let the Star Spangled Banner in triumph be waved, O'er the lands we have freed, and the peoples we've saved. The Mandate of Party. Could we have brought Dewey away without universal condemnation at any time from the 1st of May, the day of his brilliant victory which thrilled the world with its boldness and heroism? Was it right to order Dewey to go to Manila and capture or destroy the Spanish fleet, and despatch Merritt and his army to reinforce him? If it was duty to send them there, and duty required them to remain there, it w as their clear duty to annihilate the fleet, take the city of Manila and de stroy the Spanish sovereignty in the acihipelago. Having done all that in the line of duty, is there any less duty to remain there and give to the inhab itants protection and also our guidance to a oetter government, which will se cure them peace and order and security in their life and property and in the pursuit of happiness? Are we nnable to do this? Are we to sit down in onr isolation and recognize no obligation to a struggling people whose present conditions we have contributed to make? W i Ilium MoKinley. Do You Want This to Return. From K. G. Dun & Co.'s Review, Dec. 15, 1893. Mills are stopping in every direction and the army of unemployed is larger than its has been for many years. The j struggle of the Pittsburg region for I business drives prices to the lowest ! point ever known. $11 for Bessemer 1 iron, $16.75 lor steel billets, and takes away nearly all new work from the East and West, where depression in- i creases. Wheat prices delivered 1 cent. The price of corn yielded one half cent. Prices of hogs drop in spite of reports that they are proving of poor quality. The list of the week's fail ures include seven banks, an agricul tural machinery establishment for $1,000,000, an iron works for $500,000, a heavy tobacco dealer for $500,000, a lumber concern for $100,000 and a dry goods concern for $150,003. Who Is Responsible. Whatever show ot resistance to our anthority there is at the present time in the Philippines will be kept up un til after our. election in November. The insurrection is kept alive by the leaders who hold out to the soldiers the hope of Bryan's election. George Dewey. Snch a statement from so responsible ; an authority as Admiral Dewey con ' stitntes an indictment against the , Democrtaic leaders so terrible in ita j significance, that the country, for the ! sake of charitable justice, has time am) ! again asked the Democratic leaders to state the case in their own defense. Patriotism No Monopoly. Patriotism is not a monopoly of the Bry anarchists. It is safe to assume that y our next door neighbor is as pa triotic as yoo. Hence the theory that the republic is unsafe with the Repub lican party is a myth. It has too of ten proved its patriotism in times of stress and peril. Gont is rarely known among the working classes of Ireland. Their im munity from this complaint is thought to be due " to the fact that their food consists largely of potatoes. The Issues Boiled Down.- w I do not know of any stronger appeal that can be made for Republican votes then a recital of the last fonr years as compared with the previous fonr years. Boiled down the issues are McKinley ism and Bryanism. Boiled down it is free silver and free tra".e on Bryan's side and prosperity and development on ours. Out West the argument of "imperialism" is played out. Mr. Biyan will not talk free silver in the Empire state unless you force him to. and I want yon to force him to. I have frequently expressed publicly that the Republicans in this state and country are feeling too sanguine as to the re sult. The Republican national committee does not take any chances. The issues in this campaign are greater than in any other. A defeat wonld put us ten years behind. Chairman M. A. Han na, at New York.

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 man v vears doctors pro nounced it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable.

The idea is that, as one attack of ty phoid gives immunity from a second, temporarily, if not lasting, immunity might be acquired by inoculation with an attenuated dose of the poison. But one attack of typhoid does not give immunity from a second, says Dr. T. J. Maclagan in the British Medical Journal. Second attacks of typhoid are as common as iy the "ordinary doc trine of chances, they ought to be; more common, fur; instance, than sec ond attack of pneuomnia, in about the same proportion that first attacks are more common. If one attack of the fully developed disease does not give immunity . he concludes, inoculation with an attenuated dose of the poison can scarcely be expected to do so.

Should the heat be lower, the crop will be longer in maturing. Four times as much hay can be taken from a meadow than when the meadow is pastured, for the reason that the grass must approach maturity to be mowed, while the cattle will keep the pasture grass close. One advantage with the pasture, however, is that the cattle harvest the grass for themselves.

A new adornment is finding favor among milliners. This consists of skeleton leaves preserved exactly as they fall from the tiee and retaining their natural color. The leaves of the walnut, chestnut and platane trees are preferred for the purpose; large ivy leaves and oak leaves are also used. The longest leaves are formed into a large paillette, one side being composed of a stiff painted feather, the other of the skeleton leaf, thus forming a broad garniture. A fine invisible wire fixed to the edge of the leaf prevents its crumpling. The smaller leaves are made into garlands mounted onanaiti ficial or natural branch. The leaves have to be perfectly preserved as their beauty naturally lies in the delicacy and transparency of the fiber. St. Louis Republic Pickled Peppers.
