View of Happiness.
I have been trying to figure out a
general condition cf happiness, and I
reach the conclusion that It consists
mainly in the ability to march with
one's own generation, neither deplor?
ing the progress the generation makes
nor grumbling because it doesn't make
more, says Frank Putnam in the Na?
tional Magazine. We can understand
best the men and women of our own
age, or near it. Dr. Osier spoke truth
when he said that most men cease to
be receptive to new ideas after 40;
hence our elders in the 50s and 60s
and 70s, say, who have ably guided
the affairs of the wo"-'d during the
decades immediately ab^ad of us will
often seem to us to mave less rapidly
than we think they ghould, toward
new industrial condition?. And the
generation immediately behind us?
th? restless chaps in their 20s, are
putting more pressure upon us from
the rear than we are able to believe
is wholly Justified.

her husband at the time, and she gave

the wound and removed the source of
danger. Mrs. Scotl said she >aw the

?nmcrcial tendencies arc still in
the direction of improvement, although
prop hampered by some infla?
tion of prices for the raw materrak oi
textile and footwear industries. Con?
fidence expands as the crops are se?
cured, each day putting a lar?e quantity
oi grain beyond danger, and making
tatioaml rnmun of loss less effec?

vorable for retail distribution, reduced
slocks in the hands of dealers being
reflected in enlarged wholesale and job?
bing demands. Evidences of faith in
the future are increasing, more dispo?

Scott and the Simple Life.
Sir Walter Scott was an out-of
doors man, as he had been a tramp?
ing boy, says McClure's. It is impos?
sible to think of him without his
horses and dogs. His duties as sher?
iff took him across country contin?
ually, and he always had more months
out of Edinburgh that In it, notwith?
standing his court clerkship. He was
thus in constant contact with Scotch
life and country, and he never 1c '
or relaxed his first, impulse to know
and see with hia eyas, so far as eyes
could see it, all the local history. He
was also in love with the genius of
Scotland as It was stamped in the
people of all sorts and conditions. Hu?
man nature, the rough, hard article
free from Its alloy of the town, was
treasure trove to him. On those an?
nual "raids into Liddesdale." and on
many another journey, he made him?
self master of this book of truth out
of which came so much of the char?
acter, anecdote and phrase that arc
most sterling, real and humorsonie in
his books.

Coffee Act? the Jonah and Will Come Cp
A clergyman who puruies bis noble
calling In a country parish in Iowa
tells of his coffee experience:
"My wife and I used coffee regularly
for breakfast, frequently for dinner
and occasionally for supper?always
the very best quality?package coffee
never could find a place on our table.
"In the spring of 18M my wife was
taken with violent vomiting, which
we had great difficulty in stopping.
"It seemed to come from coffee drink?
ing, but we could not decide.
"In the following July, however, she
was attacked a second time by the
vomiting. I was away from home till?
ing an appointment at the time, and on
my return I found her very low; she
had literally vomited herself almost to
death, and it took some days to quiet
the trouble and restore her stomach.
"I had also experienced the same
trouble, but not so violently, and had
relieved it each time by a resort to
medicine.
"But my wife's second attack satis
fled me that the use of coffee was at
the bottom of our troubles, and so we
stopped it forthwith and took on Pos?
tum Food Coffee. The old symptoms
of disease disappeared, and during the
9 years that we have been using Pos?
tum Instead of coffee we have never
had a recurrence of the vomiting. We
never weary of Postum, to which we
know we owe our good health. This is
a simple statement of facts." Name

Thousands of Women
ARE MADE WELL AND STRONG
8aooeee af Lydia E. PlakhasVs Vegetable
Csmpound Reals Upea the Faot that It
Really Dee? Make Slot Weetea Well
Thousands upon thousands of Ameri?
can women have been restored to
health by Lydia K. Pinkham s Vegeta?
ble Compound. Their letters ara on file
in Mrs. Pinkham's office, and prove this
statement to be a faot. and cot a mere
boast.
Overshadowing indeed is the success
of this great medicine, and compared
with it ali other medicines and treat?
ment for women are experiments.
Why has Lydia E. Pink ham's Vege?
table Compound accomplished its wide?
spread results for good ?
Why has it lived and thrived and
done its glorious work for a quarter of
a century ?
Simply and surely because of Its ster?
ling worth. The reason no other med?
icine has even approached its success
is plainly and positively because there
is no other medicine in the world so
good for women's ills.
The wonderful power of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound over
the diseases of womankind is not be?
cause it is astimulunt?not because it is
a palliative, but simply because it is
the most wonderful tonic and recon?
structor ever discovered to act directly
upon the uterine system, positively
CUR1NO disease and displacements and
restoring health and vigor.
Marvelous cures are reported from
all parts of the country by women who
have been cured, trained nurses who
have witnessed cures, and physicians
who bave recognized the virtue in
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com?
pound, and are fair enough to give
credit where it is due. If physicians
dared to be frank and open, hundreds
of them would acknowledge that they
constantly prescribe Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound in severe
cases of female ills, as they know by
experience that it will effect a cure.
Women who are troubled with painful
or irregular menstruation, backsche.
bloating (or flatulence), leucorrhoea,
falling, inflammation or ulc?ration of
the uterus, ovarian troubles, that
"bearing-down" feeling, dizziness,
faintness, indigestion, nervous pros?
tration, or the blues, should take im?
mediate action to ward off the serious
consequences nnd be restored to health
and strength by taking Lydia E. Pink?
ham's Vegetable Compound. Anyway,
write to Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn. Mass.,
for advice. It's free and always helpful.
