Under date of January 10, 1897, Dr. Kartman received the following letter: “My wife has been a sufferer from a complication of diseases for the past twenty-five years. Iler case has baffled the skill of some of the most noted physicians. One of her worst troubles was chronic constipation of several years’ standing. She was also passing through that most critical period in the life of a woman—change of life. “In June, 1895, I wrote to you about her case. You advised a course of Peruna and Manalin, which we at onee commenced, and have to say it completely cured her. “About, the same time I wrote you about my own case of catarrh, which had been of twenty-five years’ standing. At times I was almost past going. 1 commenced to use Peruna according to your instructions, and continued its use for about a year, and it has completely cured me.”—John O. Atkinson.

Conviction Follows Trial When buying loose coflfee or anything your grocer happens to have in his bin, how do you know what you are getting ? Some queer stories about coffee that is sold in bulk, could be told, if the people who handle it (grocers), cared to speak out. * Could any amount of mere talk have persuaded millions of • housekeepers to use Lion Coffee, the leader of all packajje coffees for over a quarter of a century, if they had not found it superior to all other brands in Purity, Strength, Flavor and Uniformity? This popular success of LION COFFEE can be due only to Inherent merit. There Is no stronger proof of merit than continned and Increasing popularity. If the verdict of MILLIONS OF HOUSEKEEPERS does not convince yon of the merits of LION COFFEE, it costs you but a trifle to buy a package.

COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL

The weekly review of Chicago trade, published by R. G. Dun &.Co., says:

Chicago. |

Business activity derived some stimulus from the improved weather in the last few days, and a closer approach to normal conditions has brought recovery in distributive lines; but the adverse effects of recent storms and unusually low temperattires-are seen in further lessened marketing of farm products and coal famine at various interior points. Grain and live stock receipts make an unfavorable exhibit, and, though there was much general freight and passenger carrying, railroad earnings present a smaller percentage of gain. These drawbacks, however, now are being rapidly remedied, and it is reassuring that the snowfall provided ample protection to growing crops, the position of wheat and rye being reported good. Leading retail trade quickly revived, and the buying was sharply increased in foodstuffs, apparel and household needs. Visiting merchants arrived in fair numbers, considering the discouragements of travel, and satisfactory progress was made in the jobbing lines, the bookings in dry goods, millinery, clothing and footwear indicating that country requirements for spring deliv-_ ery will be large. Frequent reorders appeared for urgent shipments to several points where winter stocks had fallen low and replenishment was imperative. The demand for groceries and collateral lines was steady, and hardware forwardings for farm use were large. The strike of teamsters having been settled and deliveries assured, trade at the lumber yards again became brisk, material for building purposes here and on the outside being in strong demand. *. Manufacturers had no trouble in getting necessary raw material and fuel, and plants were run steadily, some of them employing more hands. Pig iron sales remained quiet, but there was strengthened demand for rails and other finished forms. Some of the principal factories gradually are working into enlarged productions, and these have bought more freely of supplies. Grain dealings were largely speculative, spot transactions being limited, and aside from a manipulated rise in wheat valuees closed but slightly higher than a week ago. Receipts of grain, 3,059,003 bushels, compared with 4,345,378 bushels for the same week last year, and the shipments aggregated 1,740,748 bushels, against 2,101.679 bushels, the total movement exhibiting a surprising shrinkage. Failures reported in the Chicago district numbered 30, against 24 last week and 33 a year ago.

the most severe and widely distributed In some respects of the winter, has had a depressing effect on the trade at wholesale and retail and has disorganized railroad transportation in some sections, interfering with vhrious lines of Industry, such as coal mining,, coke and iron manufacturing and shipping, heretofore active. Relatively theyvorst effects on opening spring trade are noted in the Northwest and West. The result is a curtailment of the activities of salesmen over a wide area which, taken in conjunction with the occurrence of a holiday in ipany States, has reduced the week's trade to very small proportions.

Napoleon’s Idea of Journalist.

The worst recommendation that any •man could have in Napoleon’s eyes was to be a newspaper writer. Shortly after the 18th Brumalre, Table de I’Arade, who was always a favorite with the Emperor, solicited an appointment for one,of his acquaintances. “What has he done?” asked Napoleon. “He has been a journalist, a censurer, a giver of advice, a regent of sovereigns, a tutor of nations. The Bicetre is the fittest place for people of that stamp.” Suppose Napoleon Lived to-day, with his every thought anticipated in the newspapers! Some good newspaper advice might have saved him in the Russian campaign and' later at Waterloo.—New York Press.

Doan’s Kidney Pills Brought Strength and Health to the Sufferer, Making Him Feel Twenty-five Years Younger.

from the ground, the phin was so severe. This was my condition when I began using Doan's Kidney Pills. They quickly relieved me, and now I am never troubled as I was. My back is strong and I can walk or ride a long distance and feel just as strong as I did twenty-five years ago. I think so much of Doan’s Kidney Pills that I have given a supply of the remedy to some of my neighbors, and they have also found good results.

How Chicago Is Spelled.

In sorting over the letters for Chicago a man In the general Chicago office has kept an account of the number of different ways the word Chicago is spelled. Recently the record showed 197 different ways. Some ripe scholar in Finland sent a letter to his brother and spelled the name of the Garden City, Zizzazo. Still another foreigner, possibly with a sinister motive, spelled the word Jagjago. Hipaho, Jajijo, Scheechacho, Hizage, and Chachicho are also prime favorites.

Health of American Women

A Subject Much Discussed at Women’s Clubs-* The JTuture of a Country Depends on the Health of Its Women.

Mr"' Airs. T.C. Wiffadsen Miss Mott

At the New York State Assembly of Mothers, a prominent New York doctor told the 500 women presentthathealthy American women were so rare gs to be almost extinct. ■ e* . This seems to be a sweeping statement of the condition of American women. Yet how many do you know who are perfectly well and do not have some trouble arising from a derangement of the female organism which manifests itself in headaches, backaches, nervousness, that bearing-down feeling, painful or irregular menstruation, leucorrhcea, displacement of the uterus, ovarian trouble, indigestion or Bleeplessness ? There is a tried and true remedy for all these ailments. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has restored more American women to health than all other remedies in the world. It regulates, strengthens and cures diseases of the female organism as nothing else can. For thirty years it has been curing the worst forms of female complaints. Such testimony as the following should be convincing. Mrs. T. C. Willadsen, of Manning, la., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— “1 can truly say that you have saved my life and I cannot express my gratitude to you in words. For two.years I spent lots of money in doctoring without any benefit for menstrual irregularities and I had given up all hopes of ever being well again, but I was persuaded to try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and three bottles have restored me to perfect health. Had it not been for you I. would have been in my grave to-day.”
