New England Women I ■■ Have an Abiding Faith in Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. After years of struggle to attain and merit public confidence, with a firm and steadfast belief that some day others would recognize in us the truth, good honesty of purpose which we know we possess, what a genuine satisfaction it is to succeed, and to realize the uplifting influence of the merited confidence of a vast army of our fellow beings. Thus stands the Pinkham name in New England, and all over America, and nowhere is the faith in Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound greater than in New England, its home. Merit, and merit alone, can gain this.

WAAUAA AAA XI V TV AUIAAVA, A AAVAAA-KZa MA-WSA <■ ORGANIC INFLAMMATION. “Deab Mbs. Pinkham: I was troubled very badly with inflammation of the bladder, was sick in bed with it. I had two doctors, but they did me no £ood. A friend gave me Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and it helped me. I have how taken three bottles of it, and I am entirely cired. Mis a God-send to any woman, and I would recommend it to any one suffering as I was. I think, • if most of the women would take more of your medicine instead of going to the doctors, .they would be better off. The Compound has, also cured my husband of kidney trouble.” ‘ Mbs. Mabel Gookin, Box 16). Mechanic Falls, Maine. NERVOUS PROSTRATION. “ For two years I suffered from nervous prostration, the result of female weakness. I had leucorrhoea very badly, and at time of menstruation would be obliged to go to bed. Also suffered with headaches, pain across back, and in lower part of abdomen. I was so discouraged. I had read of Lydia E. Pinkham’s ComFjund, and concluded to give it a trial, wrote to Mrs. Pinkhamrand received a very nioe letter in return. I began at once the use of her Vegetable Compound and Blood Purifier, and am now feeling splendid. I have no more pain at monthly periods, can do my own work, and have gained ten pounds. I would not be without your Vegetable Compound. It is a splendid medicine.. J very thankful for what ithas done for me." Mrs. J. W. J., 76 Carolina Ave., Jamaica Plain, Mass.

If Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound will cure these women why not you —you cannot tell until you try it. If you are ill, and really want to get well, commence its use at once, and do not let any drug clerk persuade you that he has something of his own which ia better, for that is absurd. Ask him r-nrtnp» t.ho evidence we do.

ENDEA VORERS MEET.

GREAT ANNUAL CONVENTION HELD IN CINCINNATI. If ... Twentieth International Gather!ng of Christian Young People la Attended, by Thousands Services in Many Halls and Churches. The twentieth annual convention of the Young People’s Christian Endeavor societies at Cincinnati was international as

REV. DR. CLARK.

gathering which is attended with more enthusiasm. *l__ After the business sessions of Saturday and the evangelist and other mass meetings of Sunday, the regular prbgrams of the convention of the Christian Endeavor were begun Monday. Several of the largest’churches in the central part of the city were used in addition to Odeoa Hall, and the three large auditoriums heretofore used for exposition purposes. No event of the year has greater significance in the religious world than the annual convention qf this society. Certainly no religious movement of modern times has so thoroughly enlisted the sympathy of those who, while having no denominational affiliations, recognize the ethical power and uplifting influence of Christianity. There are many reasons for this. Chief among them, no doubt, is the undenominational character of the organization. Its membership now embraces forty denominations of the evangelical church, reaching into all lands where Christianity has an organized following/ Some idea of the phenomenal growth of the organization may be gainel from the fact that it now has 61,427 societies with a total membership of nearly four million, while in 1891 at -the close of the first decade of Christian Endeavor there were only 16,274 societies with a membership of a million. Nothing comparable to this growth can be found in the history of religious movements. This great social-religious movement was started in Portland, Me., twenty years ago. The Rev. Francis E. Clark, then a yduU'g’ Congregational pastor in that city, was its originator, as Robert Raikes had been of the new Sunday school movement in Gloucester, England, just one hundred years before, and as Mr. ■George Williams, in London, was of the Young Men’s Christian Association just fifty years ago. Each one of these three distinct forms of religious association and organized effort for children and young people canie into being not because of any theory, but to ’meet what were felt to be the necessities of a condition. In neither case did the new organization have any kind of ecclesiastical origin. No form of popular evolution in its inception could have been more spontaneous, simpler, or less ostentatious. . . It iS a remarkable fact that over against the multiplication of sectarian independences and differing denominations in modern times there have sprung into power three great unsectarian and interdenominational forms' of Christian association, which are making so irresistibly for a new fellowship of the freest and broadest character.

The better element in. the modern phenomenal development of vast commercial and industrial combinations had already been anticipated in these young people’s Christian associations and societies, One year ago . the. .international Christian Endeavor convention was held in London. Exeter Hall, Albert Hall, and Alexandra palace were scarcely able to accommodate the large assemblies. There were officially, reported 59.172 different societies,.with a total membership of 3,500.000. Of these societies 43,262 were in the United States; in Enland, 7,000; Australia. 4,000; India, 439; China, 148; Japan, 73; Africa, 69; Germany, 168; Madagascar, 93; Turkey, (iff. Besides these nearly four millions of the so-called Christian Endeavorers were in fellowship with the United C. E. Society. Worthy of note is the spontaneity and freedom which characterize this immense organization. Nothing could be more democratic. The great conventjpns do not enact a particle of legislation; do not even adopt resolutions. The utterances, the discussions, the demonstrations go for what they are worth. The organizing principles of the society are clearly enough defined, and these are left to make their own headway. The United Society, of which Dr. Francis E. Clark is still the head, neither assumes nor exercises any authority' over the local societies. It gathers statistics, gives information, publishes a newspaper, and in these and other ways keeps alive the sense of universal fellowship. It manages and provides for the great annual conventions, and thus undoubtedly exerts an influence to prepare the younger men and women in all the churches for the larger and yet the closer federation which the new times are demanding. After this the international conventions of the society are to be held only once in two years.

An Exception.

“It makes me tired to see the manner in whieh these newspapers are run,” said the man in the smoking compartment as he took off his glasses and let his paper drop across his knees. The man who sat next to him had one lock of hair—an oasis in a desert of scalp—which.he spent most of the time In smoothing reflectively. “I s’pose,” he said, slowly, “that you could give ’em all points?” “I’m sure of it. Couldn’t you?” “No, I don’t think I could.” “Do you mean to say that you couldn’t tell the editor how* to run his paper?” exclaimed the. man who had spoken first, in a tone that had absolute dismay in It “I do, indeed,” replied the man with the oasis, earnestly. “Well, I must say there are not many like you.” “I know it. I used to be like you. But now I am trying to run a newspaper myself, and I tell you, my friend, I’m not sayin’ a word: not sayin’ a word.”

Worse Than the Dentist’s Tool.

At the Academy of Medicine In Paris a connivance was exhibited by a Paris dentiß, the object being to render the extraction and filling of teeth “both pleasant and painless.” At the moment that the dentist begins to get to work a phonograph is heard reproducing musical selections. By contrast, apparently, the dentist’s work becomes quite agreeable,. His instrument is the less painful.—London, Globe.

A Brother’s Love.

Lostant, 111., July B.—James Watt, of this place, by one little act, has given a splendid example of that never dying love which exists between brothers, no matter how far apart they may be. Mr. Watt was a great sufferer from Kidney Trouble and Nervousness. He was very much used up, and aFhough he had tried a great many things, he had found nothing that would in any way relieve him. Some one suggested Dodd’s Kidney Pills, and he used six boxes, and was completely cured. His first thought was for a brother in Belfast, Ireland, whom he knew to be afflicted in the same way that he had been. Mr: Watt immediately sent a supply of Dodd’s Kidney Pills to this far away brother, together with his recommendation based on his fortunate experience.

Married Life Exposed

Willie Boerum —Pa, why do some people call vegetables garden sass? Mr. Boreum (wearily)—Oh—ah—Why do some people call vegetables garden sass? “Why, because having a garden and raising vegetables is so conducive to the use of profanity. Now, run away, Willie, and, for goodness sake, don’t ask me what conducive means.”

A Financial Test.

Mr. Dykermeadows—Has young Jamaica any bank account? Mrs. Dykermeadow-s (naively)—l don't know whether he has now; but he has been able to pay me attention for six months. Landor, the poet, says in one of his sweet little sonnets: "We are what suns, and winds, and waters make us;” but unfortunately suns will scorch, winds will roughen, and waters will not remove the injurious effects of the other two upon the lovely complexion of the fairer sex. For ages chemists have tried to distil from herbs and minerals an elixir of beauty, but they have failed, and itjwas left to modern times to find a cosmetic which should remove every speck and blemish, and leave a soft and pearly lovelirfess upon she roughest skin Gouraud's Oriental Cream does this, and while so perfectly harmless that spring water is not more so, it has a magic influence upon the complexion which cannot be over Estimated or believed until realized. To oug lady readers we simply say, would you be as lovely as kindly Nature intended? Then use the Oriental Cream. Also from the noted star actress: Philadelphia, Nov. 22. 1883. “I cordially recommend Dr. T. Felix Gouraud's ‘Oriental Cream, or Magical Beautifier,’ as it is perfectly harmless.” Sincerely. LILLIE HINTON.

What Do the Children Drink?

Don’t give thesi ,|ea or coffee. Have you tried the ne'w food drink called GRAIN-O? It is delicious and nourishing and takes the place of coffee. The more Grgin-O yon give the children the more health you distribute through their systems. Grain-O is made of pure graiQs. and when properly prepared tastes like tbe choice grade* of coffee, but costs about % as much. AU grocers sell it. 15c and 25c.
