Pintham's Vegetable Compound* “Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—Life looks dark indeed when a woman feels that her strength is fading away and she has no hopes of ever being restored. Such was my feeling a few months ago when I was advised that my poor health was caused by prolapsus or falling of the womb. The words sounded like a knell to me, 1 felt that my sun had set; but Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound came to me as an elixir of life; it restored the lost forces and built me up until my Sood health returned to me. For four months I took the medicine aily and each dose added health and strength. lam so thankful for the help I obtained through its use.” —Mbs. Florence Danforth, 1007 Miles Ave., St. Joseph, Mich. A medicine that has restored so many women to health and can produce proof of the fact must be regarded with respect. This Is the repord of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, which cannot be equalled by any other medicine the world has ever produced. Here is another case: “ Dear Mrs. Pinkham : For years I was troubled with falling of the womb, irregular painful menstruation, leucorrhcea, bearingdown pains, backache, headache, dizzy and 'Sasa fainting spells, and stomach trouble.

THE MAN BEHIND THE GUN

Is our name for the patent Separating Grate and Check Plate in the famous RED RIVER SPECIAL THRESHER. It has the Big Cylinder, with lots of concave and open grate service. It has the Man Behind the Gun, that does most of the separating right at the cylinder. Besides these, it has all the separating of other machines. The average old-style small cylinder thresher wastes enough grain and time to pay your thresh bill. Why not eave the grain ordinarily put into the straw stack? Why not save the time which the ordinary threshing outfit wastes for you. This can be done by employing the RED RIVER SPECIAL. It runs right along, saving your grain and saving time, regardless of conditions.

As the modern self-binder is ahead of the old reaper of forty years ago, so is the Big Cylinder and Alan Behind the Gun ahead of the small cylinder old style thresher. The old-style thresher with its small cylinder and limited separating capacity, has stood for years without much improvement. The RED RIVER SPECIAL is the crowning improvement in threshing machinery. It is built for modern, up-to-date work; to thresh well: to thresh fast; to aavfc. time and grain and money for the thresherman and farmer. It does it. There are reasons why.

COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL

~ Dun’s weekly review of ClllCap. Chicago trade says: Agri- — cultural advices generally have shown agreement that crop conditions improved very satisfactorily and the outlook thereby lost much of its uncertainty. This has induced a more confident feeling and stimulated activity throughout the interior, where merchandising had been sluggish. Local developments were somewhat mixed. The tie-up of lake commerce and x partly suspended building operations, both due to labor controversies, occasioned some interruption. Shipments of grain, 2,019,456 bushels, are the largest in the past three weeks, but are only one-half the total at this time last year. Demand improved for flour without changing price, and, although export needs were light, there was better demand for the coarse grains. Compared with the closings a week ago oats gained seveneighths of a cent per bushel. Wheat on liberal offerings declined 1% cents, and corn lost one-fourth of a cent. Live stock receipts, 239,345 head, compare with 248,381 head a year ago. Trade in choice sheep showed moderate recovery and an advance of 10 cents a hundredweight. Heavy cattle were in lessened request and declined 10 cents. Hogs suffered a fractional loss, although the supply was diminished. Failures reported in the Chicago district number thirty, against twentyone in the previous week and eighteen in the corresponding week of 1903.

"7 „ , Special dispatches td N6V IOFK. the International Mercantile Agency indicate that general trade is picking up throughout the West and South. Eastern business also has been stimulated except in the New England States, where depression incident to the general closing of cotton mills is having marked effect. Most of the improvement is ascribed to more seasonable weather and the belief that underlying conditions are sound, with prospects of good fall orders. Territory adjacent to Omaha shows strong jobbing trade, with good restocking orders and excellent demand for spring goods. Although mindful of the possible setbacks of a Presidential election year, merchants are buying with confidence, wholesalers reporting a normal gain compared with last season. Farmers are generally encouraged over the outlook. Receipts of lumber at St. Louis have been large and railroads at that center report improved business during the week. Winter wheat in the Southwest has been helped by more favorable weather. Too much rain in the Northwest has retarded the planting of spring wheat and conditions east of the Mississippi reflect serious damage in the Ohio Valley district, where only half the average yield is expected. Loss of acreage, shown in the government report, is not surprising. It may still be reclaimed if the weather continues good. The St. Paul district reports a larger spring wheat acreage than usual. ...... The outlook in the iron industry is still modified by the attitude of the railroads, which will not buy • under present conditions. One Western system is said to have held back an order for 10,000 cars until after election.

SOCIETY WRECKED HER LIFE.

In Society.

A woman in society is obliged to keep late hours. She must attend receptions and balls. She seldom allows herself a quiet evening at home. Her whole time is taken up in keeping engagements or entertaining in her own home. Her system becomes completely run down as a consequence. She soon finds herself in a condition known as systemic catarrh. This has also been called catarrhal nervousness. If every society woman could know the value of Peruna at such a time, if they could realize the invigorating, strengthening effect that Peruna would have, how much misery could be avoided. Letters from society women all over the United States testify to the fact that Peruna is the tonic for a run down, depleted nervous system.

In one part • 'all the Russias,” the province of Ukraine, it is always leap year as far as the female privilege of proposing? is concerned. It is said to be customary? there, tvhen a young woman falls in love with a man, for her to go to his father’s house, and in the most tender and pathetic manner plead with the young man to take her as his wife. She promises the most submissive obedience to his will if he will but accept her. If the young man says: “I beg that you will excuse me from this,” she tells him that she is resolved not to depart until he shall promise to take her for better or worse. She accordingly takes up tier abode there and remains until he is wooed and won or until he ends the siege by fleeing to parts unknown.
