through the advice of Mrs. Pinkham of Lynn, Mass., which is given to sick women absolutely'free of charge. Mrs. Pinkham has for many years made a study of the ills of her sex ; she has consulted with and advised thousands of suffering women, who to-day owe not only their health but •ven life to her helpful advice. Mrs. Fannie D. Fox, of 7 Chestnut Street, Bradford, Pa., writes : Dear Mrs. Pinkham “I suffered for a long time with womb trouble, and finally was told by my physician that Lhad a tumor on the womb. I did jK>t want to submit to an operation, so wrote you for advice. I received vour tetter and did as you told me, and to-day I am completely cured. My doctor says the tumor has disappeared, and I am once more a well woman. I believe Lydia E. Pinkham s Vegetable Compound is the best medicine in the world for women.” The testimonials which we are con•tantlypublishingfrom grateful women establish beyond a doubt the power of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound to conquer female diseases. Women suffering from any. form of female weakness are Invited to promptly commuticate with Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. She asks nothing in return for her advice. It is absolutely free, and to thousands of women has proved to be more precious than gold.

BEEDING IN PROGRESS IN WESTERN CANADA.

Mild Weather le Bringing Thousand* of Settlers. The splendid yields of wheat oats and barley produced by the farmers of Western Canada and the excellent prices received ’for the same, have been the means of giving an increased interest throughout the United States. As a result the inquiries made of the agents of the Canadian Government have nearly doubled over those of the same period last year. Railroad companies are putting on increased carrying capacity to meet the demand made upon tfa.em for carrying passengers and freight. ,E very thing points to a most prosperous year. There is room for hundreds of thousands additional settlers, much new land having been opened up for settlement this year.* It is quite interesting to look through the letters received from the Americans who have settled in Western Canada during the past few years, and considering the large number, it is surprising how few there are who have not succeeded. An extract from a letter written by Mr. Geo. W. Gris wold, of Red Deer, Alta., formerly of Greber, Mont., written on the 2d of January, is aS follows: “I am located one and one-half miles from a beautiful lake ten miles long, where there is ehurch, school, three stores, creamery and two postofiices. The fine stock, both cattle (cows and steers), horses, hogs and sheep are roiling fat, grazing in pastures to-day, just a little snow, hardly enough for good sleighing, as we just had a Chinook which has melted the roads and laid bare the fields and pasture. There are fine wheat, oats, barley and flax raised here, also winter wheat and timothy hay for export to British Columbia. This is a mixed farming and dairy country. This is the right time to get a foothold in the Canadian West, as it was some years ago in the United States. We are free from wind gumbo and alkali here and have fine, clear, soft well and spring water at a depth of from five to twenty-five feet, and lots of open overflowing springs.” Telegraphic advices from Medicine Hat say that seeding has commenced at Medicine Hat, Lethbridge, and other points. At the former place the temperature moderated gradually until on the 19th the maximum was 45 and the minimum 26. Thermometer readings since then have been as follows: 20th, 47 and 38; 2’st, 54 and 34; 22d, 5G and 39; 23d, 48 and 40; 24th, 48 and 26. During the last few days in February considerable ploughing was done near Lethbridge. P. A. Pulley, a recent arrival from Montana, ploughed and harrowed fifteen acres and E. Laliborty about the same amount. Rev. Coulter White has also been harrowing his farm. All report the ground frost free and in excellent condition. Bricklaying has also begun in town. At Hartney, further east, on the 25th of February, the sun was warm and bright, wheeled carriages were in use and the plowed fields look as if they are ready for the press drills. There is every appearance that spring has arrived, but farmers do not wish to be deceived by appearances and consequently have not commenced to use their bluestone and seed wheat.

There Is more Catarrh in this section of ithe country than nil other diseases put togetheK4nd until the last few years was supposed trr-be Incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced It a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it Incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.. Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken Internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system.

COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL

PT ~ ,~~l Bradstreet’s weekly re|Ml xOfn. view of trade-says: 1 ~ The merchandise movement in practically all sections save a portion of the South has expanded considerably, the railways have begun to win out of their car congestion. troubles, and are handling a very large traffic, preparations for an active building season are reflected in the market for material, and the iron and steel and allied industries report a keen demand. unprecedented consumption for this season, the only complaint being that deliveries of crude and finished products are not up to consumers’ needs. Retail trade shows little expansion as yet. and the late Easter season favors some continued quietness, but no complaint conies from this source except in the metropolis, where the transportation strike .affects sales. Collections fag, except at a few Western points, which represent improvement. Money is phenomenally easy. Business failures in the United States for the week ending March 9 number 190, against 206 last week, 200 in the like week in 1904, 176 in 1903, 224 in 1902, and 207 in 1901. In Canada failures for the week number 40, as against 22 last week, and 27 in this week a year ago. Wheat, including flour, exports for the week ending March 9 are 1,285,956 bushels, against 907,936 last week, 1,834,632 this week last year, 3,366,796 in 1903, and 2,906,250 in 1902. From July 1 to date the exports are 44,698,362 bushels, against 110,324,313 last year, 116,043,930 in 1903, and 182,643,201 in 1902. Corn exports for the week are 1,756,706 bushels, against last week, 2,026,810 a year ago, 3,257,999 in 1903, and 183,414 in 1902. From July 1 to date the exports of corn are 48,229,938 bushels? against 41,967,091 in 1904, 37,750,103 in 1903, and 22,160,871 in 1902.

Dun’s Review, publishCbiCdQO. 6(1 by R ’ G ’ Dun & Co ’’ says: Business conditions were less handicapped, weather and transportation having improved, and the opportunity to advance operations is encouragingly reflected in the week’s results. These indicate increased deliveries of commodities, better demand for necessities and future factory output, afitl an enlarging use of bank accommodation. Money remained in ample supply, but the revived commercial borrowing imparted more firmness to the discount rate. The marketing of farm products was unusually heavy, and values suffered a slight impairment. The markets for general merchandise were well attended by outside buyers, and transactions exhibited larger volume than for the previous week. The buying has emphasized confidence in the approaching spring trade, and many purchases were made on a discount basis. Requests again were numerous for prompt forwarding to the interior of dry goods, footwear, clothing and groceries. Manufacturing branches have added to the'volume of production, and in most of the leading lines new business made further gain. Rails were more freely ordered, and other railroad requirements increased, notably in cars and locomotives. Furnace output has been augmented in response to heavier demand, and the tonnage booked exceeded last week’s. Specifications for structural steel were more promptly supplied and deliveries will be larger. • Bank clearings, $194,405,301, were 1.7 per cent over those of the corresponding week last year. Money ex-’ liToited more flrinnesA, although the rates for commercial paper remained quoted at 4 to 5 per cent. Failures reported in the Chicago district numbered 20, against 21 last week and 35 a year ago.
