▲ Prominent Cincinnati Woman Tells
How Lydia & Plnkham's Vegetable
Compound Completely Cured Her.
The great good Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound is doing among
the women of America is attracting
the attention of many of our leading
■oientieta. and thinking people gener-
ally.
Atrj. Sara Wit son
The following letter is only one of
Inany thousands which are on file in
the Pinkham office, and go to prove
beyond question that Lydia E. Pink-
ham's Vegetable Compound must be a
remedy of great merit, otherwise it
eould not produce such marvelous re-
sults among sick and ailing women.
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—
“ About nine months ago I was a great suf-
ferer with womb trouble, which caused ms
severe pain extreme nervousness and fre-
quent headaches, from which the doctor
failed to relievo me. 1 tried Lydia E. Pink-
ham’s Vegetable Compound, and within a
short time felt better, and after taking five
bottles of it I was entirely cured. I therefore
heartily recommend your Compound as a
splendid uterine tonic. It makes the monthly
periods regular and without pain ; and what
a blessing it is to find such a remedy after so
many doctors fail to help you. I am pleased
to recommend it to all suffering women."—
Mrs. Sara Wilson, 31 East 3d Street, Cincin-
nati, Ohio.
If you have suppressed or painful

“ want-to-be-left-alone ” feeling, ex-
citability, backache or the blues, these
art sure indications of female weak-
ness, some derangement of the uterus
qr ovarian trouble. In such cases there
is one tried and true remedy—Lydia

FEARFUL DECLINE OF STRENGTH
COMPLETELY ARRESTED.
HEALTH CAMP FOR CONSUMPTIVES
CARPENTER BOSSED THE SHOW.
Worthy Enterprise Established in Southern Cal-
ifornia—So Arranged That Patients May
Be Self-Supporting.
A New York paper publishes an ac-
count of a successful effort recently
made by Mr. N. O. Nelson, in South-
ern California, to provide for the poor-
er classes. Mr. Nelson has established
at Indio, in Southern California, what
he calls a health camp for consump-
tives. We quote the following de-
scription of this worthy enterprise
with the hope that it may encourage
others to do likewise; for certainly
no more beneficent work can be under-
taken by anyone:
‘The camp is located in a desert
valley, cut off from the ocean by
the mountains. There is no rain, no
fog, no clouds. The winter days are
all warm, the nights comparatively
cold.
‘‘The camp was established in De-
cember, 1902, to provide in part for
the large number of consumptives and
other invalids who go to Southern
California. Most of the invalids have
little moans; they can not afford ex-
pensive sanitariums, and are not want-
ed by hotels and boarding houses.
“To meet the requirements of such
patients, Mr. Nelson bought one hun-
dred and twenty-five acres of land ad-
joining the Indio depot. This tract
he has improved by sinking artesian
wells, and by putting most of the land
under cultivation, in order to give con-
valescents something to do.
“Tents, with all necessary equip-
ment for sleeping and taking meals,
have been set up. Land and water
are free to those who have their own
outfit. A small rental for tents is
made to those who can not pay, and
.where necessary, board is given them.
All expenses reed not be more than
from $2.50 to $4.00 a week.
“Work is provided for those who are
able to do it, so that their care does
not become a burden on the camp.
“The camp is situated in the midst
of a sandy valley one hundred miles
long and three to ten miles wide.
The mountains on each side rise by
degrees to four thousand and five
thousand feet high. In some places in
the foothills there are springs ar.d
vegetation.
“In the valleys most of the land
has been taken up in the past few
years. The crops of melons and vege-
tables are early and bring high prices.
From $100 to $200 an acre is an
ordinary yield. Alfalfa hay is cut ten
times a year, giving twelve to fifteen
tons an acre.
“When the campers get well enough
to work, they buy or lease a few
acres. They can either buy the land
on the instalment plan, or lease it on
shares for such length of time as de-
sired.”
pations where the worker is much ex-
posed to the inhalation of various
kinds of dust, have rendered them
particularly liable to consumption.”
Let every one take courage and live
above tuberculosis. If you are already
suffering from it strive to rise above
it. Avoid alcoholic beverages, condi-
ments. pastries, tea and coffee. Live
out of doors, provide fresh air for
your bed room, study the laws of your
body and return to the natural way
of living.
Food for Brain Workers.
Mental work requires much less
food than does physical labor. Re-
cent careful experiments which have
been made, show that men engaged
in active mental labor and abstaining
from muscular exertion, require prac-
tically no more food than men at rest.
This is a fact of very great import-
ance for students, ministers, and oth-
er professional men whose occupation
does not requiro any considerable
amount of effort, since the taking,of
food in excess of that which is re-
quired results in the filling of the
blood with poisons, and in conse-
quence crowding of the tissues with
tissue wastes and poisonous matters
which interfere with all the bodily
functions, and especially with the
functions of the brain and nerves.
Mental activity is clouded, sleep may
be prevented, and all the effects of
nervous exhaustion produced by a
comparatively slight, expenditure of
energy, giving rise to languor, some-
times depression, and at other times
irritability, confusion, and indecision
of mind, even moroseness and melan-
choly.
Une Case Where Richard Mansfield
Yielded His Authority.
Another tale of the urbanity of Mr.
Mansfield, the actor, is going around
the theaters.
With his company is a stage car-
penter whom Mr. Mansfield considers
the acme of perfection in his line,
just as Richard himself is in his. Now,
this carpenter, whom Mr. Mansfield
would not lose for the best leading
lady in the land, has his own eccen-
tricities, even as Mr. Mansfield has
| his.
I One afternoon during the time of
| rehearsal the carpenter was heard
I pounding with his hammer in the
wings. Mr. Mansfield sent a messen-
! ger to tell the carpenter to desist, but
; the pounding went right on vigor-
' ously.
Finally Richard in high dudgeon
i strode into the wi'ngs himself, and
| above the noise of the poundings Mr.
! Mansfield’s objections could be heard.
One actress, bolder than the rest,
; crept near the scene in the wings.
| She beheld Richard bending over ‘be
1 carpenter, who was on his knees
! pounding away,
“What do you mean?" cried Mr.
: Mansfield. “Why don’t you stop
I when I tell you to?”
“Sh—sh—” said the carpenter, not
j ceasing to lot his hammer fall.
“You—you—’’ cried the enraged
master. "Don't you know who’s talk-
ing to you, you blockhead of an old
fool?"
The carpenter looked'up a minute,
“Speak piano. Richard.” he said, “you
will disgrace yourself with the peo-
ple on the stage.” And he resumed
his good hearty strokes.
Mr. Mansfield walked off. “The car-
I penter runs this show,” he com-
i plained.
j Some of the company think Rich-
ard's right.
Honesty is its own reward,
sometimes its only reward.

That Tired Feeling.
The condition of lethargy produced
by excessive eating or habitual drunk-
enness must be distinguished from fa-
tigue due to work. Persons in this
condition often decline to exercise be-
cause they “feel so tired.” This state
of lassitude and enervation cannot be
overcome by rest. Carefully graduat-
ed exercises and regulation of the di-
etary are the proper remedies. There
are many chronic invalids whose suf-
ferings and disability are wholly due
to this cause, and who may be read-
ily restored to usefulness by a spare
and simple dietary combined with out-
I uoor exercises, gradually increased in
vigor and duration as the strength im-
proves.
Medical Skill Had Almost Exhausted Itself
la Vain Attempts to Relieve Her—A
Remarkable Result.
1 The recovery of Miss Gertrude L. Bull
is of great interest to the medical world.
A very bad cough followed a severe at-
tack of pneumonia. It seemed impossi-
ble to break it np or to restore her
strength, which had been sadly under-
mined. In spite of the best efforts of
the doctors and the nse of several adver-
tised modes of treatment her condition
daily grew more .sepioas. She Anally
discontinued all medicine and gave her-
self np to despair.
41 What was yonr condition at this
time?” she was asked.
“ My stomach was so weak I conld not
keep food down. I suffered from con-
stant nausea. My kidneys were in ter-
rible condition. My feet and ankles were
swollen so badly that it pained me even
to stand ou them. I was very bilious.
My heart was in bad sbapo so I could
not go np and down stairs or stand any
exertion or sloep in a natural position.”
“ It seems a wonder that you should
ever have recovered. How did it
happen?”
“Yon.may well call it a marvel, but
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills wrought it.
None of my friends thought I conld live
many months longer. My parents had
no hope. Just then a pamphlet adver-
tising Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale
People was thrown in our door. It was
a great event for me. These pills saved
me from the grave. Within a week from
the time I began to take them I felt bet-
ter, and in three mouths I was entirely
well. I cannot praise Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills too highly and I dearly hope
that my experience may bring good to
some other sufferers.”
Miss Bull, who was so remarkably
cured, resides at Union Grove, Illinois.
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills act immediately
on the blood, purifying and enriching it.
In all debilitating diseases, such as
lotpt. troubles, grip, fevers, and in all
cases in which the system is thoroughly
run down, these pills perform wonders.
They are sold by all druggists through-
out the world. A valuable booklet on
diseases of the blood, will be sent free
to any oue who applies for it to Dr Wil-
liams Medicine Co., Scheuectudy, N. Y.
Alcohol and Tuberculosis.
Dr. S. A. Knopf, the eminent New
York physician who has given a great
deal of attention to the subject of
tuberculosis, took occasion not long
since in a scientific paper to condemn
the popular notion that alcohol is a
remedy for consumption. He says:
“There Is an idea that alcohol is a
remedy or even a specific remedy for
consumption. There has never been
a greater mistake made. Alcohol has
never cured and never will cure
tuberculosis. It will either prevent or
retard recovery. It is like a two-
edged weapon; on one side it poi-
sons £he system, and on the other side
it 'ruins the stomach and thus prevents
this organ from properly digesting the
necessary food. Truly pathetic are
the results of this erroneous doctrine
in the families of the poor, where, in-
stead of procuring good nourishment
for the invalid, liquor has been bought
in far too large quantities, so that
often there was not enough money left
for food for the sufferer nor for the
other members of the family.”
Predisposition to Tuberculosis.
The abnormal fear of tuberculosis
which haunts so many minds is bred
of ignorance. The awful results of
the “white terror” have Impressed
themselves upon all, but as with the
aborigine, when he first encountered
the gun-bearing explorer, the reason
why is hidden. The native heard the
gun speak and saw his brother fall.
The sudden death terrified him. He
did not stop to inquire the cause. He
fled in abject fear.
To-day the ravages of tuberculosis
are stupendous. Are you inquiring
into the why, or are you trembling
lest it seize you? Are you trying to
dodge an\inscrutable foe, or are you
studying to give intelligent battle?
The tenement dweller says, “I can not
escape the plague, I will await my
turn." The son or brother of a con-
sumptive says: “If Is in the family,
I must suffer the same death.” The
weakened victim of intemperance or
neglect of vital laws says: “My con-
stitution is wrecked—I am no match
for this relentless foe.”
Dr. Knopf asks and answers the
following pertinent query: "Who are
the individuals who must lie particu-
larly careful so as not to lie attacked
by the almost ever present tubercle
bacillus.
“There are four classes: First, those
who have a hereditary predisposition
to consumption: secondly, those who
have weakened their system and finis
predisposed themselves to consump-
tion by the intemperate use of alco-
holic beverages, by a dissipated life,
by excesses of all kinds, etc.; thirdly,
those whose constitution has been
weakened through disease; fourthly,
those whose occupations, trades or
professions, such as printing, hat mak-
ing, tailoring, weaving, and all oceu-
Water Purification.
A physician connected with the
United States Agricultural department
has called attention to the fact that
an extremely small quantity of sufc
phate of copper will .prevent the
growtlwof iilgae in lakes, ponds and
storage reservoirs, and will destroy
typhoid arid cholera germs. The ques-
tion at once arises whether this meth-
od can he considered thoroughly hy-
gienic. The probability is that the
small amount of copper thus em-
ployed would be neutralized by com-
bining with vegetable substances so
that the water will be left practically
pure; nevertheless, the addition of
chemical substances to water cannot
be considered the most desirable
method of purification. Boiling and
filtering through a Pasteur filter are
really the best methods. Filters are
cheap, and boiling is an easy ami sim-
ple process. ' The old-fashioned char-
coal and gravel filters cannot be re-
lied upon.
JUDGE HAD TO FOLLOW.
Listened to Chauncey, But Would
Willingly Have Quit.
One of the first cases which Chaun-
cey Depew had after being admitted
to the liar was a civil suit involving
a somewhat complicated question of
inheritance.
In no way daunted young Chaun-
cey tackled it, looked up authorities
all the way hack to Julius Caesar,
and prepared an argument of a few
hundred pages which seemed to him
more than unanswerable. His only
fear was that it might be oeyond the
comprehension of the court..
When the time came the young man
rose and plunged in boldly. The judge
seemed interested, and Chauncey took
further courage. But at the end of
an hour and a half, in the midst of
the most intricate part of his plea,
he was pained to see what he thought
wag a lack of attention on the part of
the court. It was just as he had ex-
pected; the judge was unable to ap-
preciate the nice points ot his argu-
ment.
He paused, hesitated and then said:
“Your honor, I beg pardon, but do you
follow me.”
“I havg_so far,” answered the judge,
shifting.about in his chair; “but I’ll
say frankly that if I thought I could
find my way back I’d quit right here.”

Warning Against Tight Corsets.
Nature abhors a vacuum. There is
no unoccupied space in the body; and
to render any part of it smaller than
nature designed, is to cause the or-
gans occupying that part to diminish
in size, or to crowd together, one upon
another. In either case, nature's proc-
esses are sadly interrupted.—C. E.

SOME SIMPLE DISHES.
Breakfast Toast.—Cut rather thin
slices of bread into two or three
pieces. Put these into the oven and
let them bake very slowly for two or
three hours, or until of a golden color
and crisp throughout. This is an ex-
cellent substitute for breads and much
more wholesome. It is delicious served
with cocoanut or dairy cream or but-
ter.
Cocoanut Cream.—Cut fresh epeoa-
i nut into thin slices and grind the nut
very fine in a chopper or some strong
hand mill. If nothing of this sort is
available, the cocoanut may be grated.
To each cup of the prepared nut add
one cup of hot water, stirring and
heating with a spoon to extract as
much of the juice as possible. Drain
off the liquid and add a similar quan-
tity of hot water, and, after beating
again very thoroughly, strain through
a cloth or very fine sieve, pressing
out all the liquid possible. This may
be used at once as a substitute for
milk, to be eaten with rice or other
giains, or to prepare puddings or
sauces. It is excellent served with
granose flakes or eaten with zwie-
back. If placed on the ice for a few
hours, the cream will rise to the top
and may be taken off, making a pure
coeoanut butter.
Strawberry Egg-nog.—Beat the yolk
and white of one egg separately, and
to each add one teaspoonful of sugar.
To the yolk add one teaspoonful of
lemon juice and two tablespoonfuls
of strawberry juice. Stir in the white,
leaving enough to serve as a meringue
tor the top.
Why He Speared the Pickerel.
“Game wardens lead a strenuous ex-
istence. it is said, and I know that
some of them have to be pretty
shrewd to carry out the work for
which they are appointed,” said M. L.
Ferguson.
“I was told a story in a little town
cut on the other edge of the state the
other day which bears ©lit this state-
ment.
“A game warden found a man spear-
ing pickerel through the ice. At the
side of the little shanty in which the
fishing was done lay a large pickerel.
The game warden stole to the hut ant
threw open the door.
"’Did you spear this pickerel?’ he
asked.
“ ’I did that.’
“ ‘Did you know it is against the
law?”
“‘Well, you see that the fish isn’t
dead,’ was the assured response. ‘I
have been spearing catfish, and that
pickerel keeps getting in the way. I
had to jab it lightly and lay it on the
ice until I finish fishing. Then I will
put it back.’
“The game warden walked off.”—•
