Tited, Netvous Mothers O- M MaKe Unhappy Homes-Their Condition Irritates Both Husband and Children—How Thousands of Mothers Have Been Saved From Nervous Prostration and Made Strong and Well | ■ V» I" "■ iWMk h -x<9' & —~>h| /p | |j |

A nervous, irritable mother, often on the verge of hysterics, is unfit to care for children ; it ruins a child's disposition and reacts upon herself. The trouble between children and their mothers too often is due to the fact that the mother has some female weakness, and she is entirely nnfit to bear the strain upon her nerves that governing children involves; it is impossible for her to do anything calmly. The ills of women act like a firebrand upon the nerves, consequently ninetenths of the nervous prostration, nervous despondency, “the blues,” sleeplessness, and nervous irritability of’ women arise from some derangement of the female organism. Do you experience fits of depression with restlessness, alternating with extreme irritability? Are your spirits easily affected, so that one minute you laugh, and the next minute you feel like crying ? Do you feel something like a ball rising in your throat and threatening to choke you; all the senses perverted, morbidly sensitive to light and sound ; pain in the ovaries, and especially between the shoulders; bearing down pains; nervous dyspepsia, and almost continually cross and snappy ? If so, your nerves are in a shattered condition, and you are threatened with nervous prostration. Proof is monumental that nothing in the world is better for nervous prostr# tion than Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound; thousands and thousands of women testify to this fact.

STRENGTHEN THE STOMACH

Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills Really Cure Indigestion Instead of Merely Relieving Symptoms. There are plenty of remedies by which yon can relieve for the time heartburn, pain and gas on the stomach and can smother nervous sensations and induce artificial sleep. You can humor your stomach by giving it predigested food. But when you take your next meal all your trouble begins afresh. There is only one sensible thing to do. Strengthen the stomach and do away with the necessity for drugs and artificial foods. The best remedy ever found for this purpose is the one that was used by E. E. Strong, of Capleville, Shelby county, Tenn. “For years,” he states, "I suffered greatly from indigestion. I tried many different remedies and some of them would relieve me for a time, but the trouble always came back. About six mouths ago I had an unusually severe attack, and while I tried everything I had ever heard of, I found that none of the ordinary remedies would reach the difficulty this time. “ One day I read in a Memphis paper how Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills bad cured a Michigan woman, a sufferer from chronic dyspepsia of a most stubborn type. I then tried the same remedy and ft proved just as successful in my case. I took only three boxes, and was cured. I have not had the slightest symptoms of indigestion since.” The tonic treatment has a sound principle as its basis, and abundant success in actual use. Multitudes of cases that had defied all other remedies have been cured by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. The pills actually make new blood and strikeat the root of all diseases caused by bad blood. They contain no harmful stimulants or opiates. Every dyspeptic should read, “ What to Eat and How to Eat.” Write the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N.Y., for a free copy,

Mischievous Legislation Threatened.

Legislation Is threatened In many States during this coming winter for the suppression of the so-called “patent” medicines. The success of such legislation would mean the abolition of the home medicine chest and would force persons, no matter how remote their homes from a physician, to call In a doctor for every minor ailment. The legislation as proposed would mean frequent long delays awaiting the arrival of a physician, when a simple remedy administered by a member of the household would accomplish the result desired, or at least give temporary relief.

Mrs. Chester Curry, Leader of the Ladies’ Symphony Orchestra, 42 Saratoga Street, East Boston, Mass., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— “For eight years I was troubled with extreme nervousness and hysteria, brought on by irregularities. I could neither enjoy life nor sleep nights; I was very irritable, nervous and despondent. “Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound was recommended and proved to be the only remedy that helped me. I have daily improved in health until I am now strong and well, and all nervousness has disappeared.” Mrs. Charles F. Brown, Vice-Presi-dent of the Mothers’ Club, 21 Cedar Terrace, Hot Springs, Ark., writes : Dear Mrs. Pinkham: — “ I dragged through nine years of miserable existence, worn out with pain and nervousness, until it seemed as though I should fly. I then noticed a statement of a woman troubled as I was, and the wonderful results she derived from Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, I decided to try it. I did so, and at the end of three months I was a different woman. My nervousness was all gone. I was no longer irritable, and my husband fell in love with me all over again.” Women should remember that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is the medicine that holds the record for the greatest number of actual cures of female ills, and take no substitute. Free Advice to Women. Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass., invites all sick women to write to her for advice. Mrs. Pinkham's vast experience with female troubles enables her to tell you just what is best for you, and she will charge you nothing for her advice.

It led to the epistolatory battle between President Ramsey and Mr. Delano which precipitated the fight for the control, of the Wabash system.

Mrs. Ella Rawls Reader, who addressed a letter to Secretary Root demanding that the United States gov?

ernment call off the influences it is exerting in the affairs of Santo Domingo, and declaring she will pay the millions Santo Domingo ewes to foreigners, is reputed to to have conducted a number of deals by which South American

governments were supplied with ready money in return for railway and other concessions. She claims to have made a “treaty” with the President of Santo Domingo by which a syndicate she represented was to have liquidated the Dominican debt in return for commercial concessions. These plans, she says, can still be carried out if the United States will withdraw its gunboats from Dominican waters.

The Rev. M. W. Stryker, president of Hamilton College, in a sermon at Binghamton, N. ¥., made the sensa-

tional statement that there are too many churches in this country and that it would be better if many of them were burned. Five thousand churches, he said, might be disposed of in that way. He declared the

cause of religion would be better conserved If the people of a community were gathered Into one large church and the money expended in erecting unnecessary churches used in carrying on religious work.

Business Pleasure. “Every morning Mrs. A. used to remain at home and do her churning. Now she spins past here in her automobile.” “You don’t say! Has she given up her dairy business?” “Oh, no. Instead of turning the clumsy old churn she just places the milk cans in the automobile and by the time she has run twenty miles the cream has been shaken into butter.”

Ravages of Time. “Even the hairs of our heads are numbered,” quoted the good old deacon with the bald pate. , “Well, uncle,” rejoined his irreverent nephew, “in your case the count doesn’t take up much of the enumerating angel’s time.” Many Know This—Do You? The following very interesting conversation between Mr. White, banker, and Mr. Walter Wellman, retired, two prominent citizens of the town, was recently overheard: “I never buy patent medicine,” said Mr. White. “When I feel the need of medical assistance I call our physician. I don’t believe in taking a lot of stuff that I know nothing about. I know, however, that a great many do use it, and apparently with good results, but I am for getting a doctor every time.” “Your circumstances render this possible,” replied Mr. Wellman, “but the majority of people must consider the expense. My experience is that some patent medicines frequently cure when the doctor’s skill is battled. Take, for Instance, an affliction; say like constipation and stomach trouble. Did you ever hear of your faiblly physician curing a case like that? If constipated, he gives you a physic: but a physic cannot cure constipation, and he will tell you so. It is a temporary relief and before long you need more physic or pills. The doctor charges you $2 every time you call on him and you have to pay sOc or 75c to have his prescription filled. Pretty soon you have the ‘l’lll’ or ‘Physic’ habit and your doctor has a steady customer. You cannot read the doctor's prescriptions. You know no more about what he gives you than you do about the Ingredients of a patent medicine. No reliable company will put a lot of money Into a patent medicine unless they are convinced that it will do all that Is claimed for It. Usually It Is the prescription of some specialist who has devoted his life to the study of a certain disease and has mastered it. I mention constipation and stomach trouble because I suffered from that affliction for years. It Is the beginning of nearly all diseases. Once it gets a grip on you, it Is serious, stubborn and hard to overcome. I never knew a case that was cured by an ordinary practicing physician, but I do know of a number of bad cases that were permanently cured by a remedy called Mull's Grape Tonic. I have used it In my family with satisfactory results. It cured me, and I know ■ a great many more persons It has cured. It costs 50 cents for a small bottle or SI.OO for a large bottle. ,1 don't know exactly all that Is in it, but i I do know it cures constipation and stomach trouble and that Is more than my family doctor could do for me. I was first attracted to the remedy by the company's offer to give the first bottle free to any one who would write to them giving their druggist's name. I am thankful for the benefit It has given and advise every sufferer from constipation to write to the Mull's Grape Tonic Co., 21 4th Ave., Rock Island, IM., giving them their druggist's address, so that they can procure a bottle free of expense.” The largest flour mill in the British empire is in Montreal.
