PERIODS OF PAIN

MISS ADELAIDE. NICHOLS

While no woman is entirely free from periodic suffering-, it does not seem to be the plan of nature that women should suffer so severely. Irregularities and pain are positive evidence that something is wrong which should be set right or it will lead to feerious derangement of the feminine organism. Thousands of women, hare found relief from all periodic suffering' by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, which is made from native roots and herbs, as it is the most thorough female regulator known to medical science. It cures the condition which causes so much discomfort and robs

that period of it terrors. Women who are troubled with painful or irregular functions should take immediate action to ward off the serious consequences and be restored to health and strength by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Miss Adelaide Nichols of 324 West 22nd Street, New York City, writes: Dear Mrs, Pinkham:-"If women who suffer would only rely upon Lydia E. Finkhann's Vegetable Compound their troubles would be quickly alleviated. I feel greatly indebted for the relief and health which has been brought to me by your inestimable remedy." Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound cures Female Complaints such as Falling and Displacements, and Organic Diseases. Headache, General Debility, Indigestion, and invigorates the whole feminine system. For the derangements of the Kidneys of either sex Lydia B. Pink barn's Vegetable Compound! is excellent. Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation to Women Women suffering from any form of female weakness are invited to write Mrs.Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. From the symptoms given, the trouble may be located and the quickest and surest way of recovery advised.

TO START A FORESTRY

The Pennsylvania Railroad .Company

Will Begin to Raise Ties on Large Scale.

Philadelphia, Feb. 28. To meet the

continually growing demand for cross

ties, the Pennsylvania railroad has begun forestry operations on a large

scale. The company will raise as many ties for Its own use as the ex

tent of the land holdings will permit. From 300,000 to 500,000 trees will be set out every year. E. A. Sterling,

formerly in the government forestry

service, has been appointed forester of the Pennsylvania,

At the same time, the Pennsylvania

is going to lengthen the "lives" of Its

ties by treating them with creosote. The officials have studied European methods of preservation, and are convinced that by proper treatment ties can be made to last twice as long as at present. The London & Northwestern railroad, in England, gets twenty years' service out of its ties by the use of creosote. This can not be accomplished here because the traffic Is so much heavier, but it is calculated

tnat a tie wmch now serves seven years may be made to serve fourteen.

Learning of Indiana. Indianapolis, Feb. 2S H. F. Bain of Urbana, 111., state geologist of Illinois, nrrived In Indianapolis yesterday for the purpose of gathering data on the operations of the Indiana gas waste law and all oher laws pertaining to the oil and gas fields. The data Is being gathered for the benefit of the Illinois Legislature, now in session, which will probably pass a law prohibiting the waste of gas in the Illinois oil fields. . Mr. Bain, In company with llryce Kinney of Marion, State gas inppector, will leave this morning for a short trip through the oil fields of this State. "We have just discovered a new pas and oil field in southeastern Illinois," said Mr. Bain yesterday, "in the immediate vicinity of Robinson nnd Casey, and the gas waste question is already beginning to assume serious proportions. The oil men are fighting the proposed legislation and we want to get the benefit of Indiana's experience and see how things are worked out here."

ENDLESS PRAYER CHAIN

FAKE HAS REAPPEARED Many residents of Richmond have for the past few weeks been congratulating themsffvesT upon tthe- fact that they were free from the endless prayer chain fake, which has been worked overtime here, but the letters have again made their appearance, much to the disgust and chagrin of those who are thoroughly acquainted with their origin. The letters are supposed to have been written by Bishop Lawrenca of the Episcopal ehuurch, but as they became of general circulation, many inquiries were forwarded to him and he both personally and through the medium of the press denied having anything to do with them. The letters have flooded the "United States and many persons of Richmond have been requested to continue the chain time and time again. The most objectionable feature of the endless prayer chain is the fact that the letters carry with them a clause which threatens ill luck, in case they are not forwarded to nine of the recipient's friends. A prominent young man of the city Wednesday received a letter and after reading it decided he would have nothing to do with it, as it was a fake pure and simple, but after making his intentions known, he was obliged to lose a half day's work yesterday on account of grippe. He laughingly remarked that he supposed it was because he had not continued the prayer chain.

A constant stream of people has been puring into the1 store from 8 a. m. until 10 p. m, every day since the sale began, the crush at times necessitating temporary suspension of business in order to arrange stock and give proper attention to those already in the store. This great sale is the sensation of the day. Nothing approaching it has ever been seen in the Richmond shoe trade before. It's like will probably never be seen again. The people of Richmond have clearly demonstrated that they know the difference between sham "Sales" and the real thing. Our sale is an actual Closing Out Sale of $15,000 worth of fine shoes of the Curme shoe stock, regardless of cost or value. At the rate the stock is moving now, it will be cleaned up before the end of the sale period, and we urge every one who expects to take advantage of this opportunity, to lay in a supply of shoes at the unheard-of prices at which these are going, to CO ME FJOW ! The styles and sizes that you want may be here now, but gone next week.
