A HEALTHY OLD AGE OFTEN THE BEST PART OF MFE ■ "" r*l Help for Women Passing Through Change of Life Providence ha§ allotted us each at least seventy years in which to fulfill our mission in life, and it is generally our own fanlt if we die prematurely. Nervous exhaustion invites disease. This statement is the positive truth When everything becomes a burden and you cannot walk a few blocks with' out excessive fatigue, and you break out into perspiration easily, and your face flushes, and you grow excited and shaky at the least provocation, and you cannot bear to be crossed in anything, you are in danger ; your , nerves have given out; von need building up at once! To build up woman’s nervous system and during the period of change of life we know of no better medicine than Lydia.E. Pinkham’s Veg--etable Compound. Here is an illustration. Mrs, Mary L. Koehne, 371 Garfield Avenue, Chicago. Ill;, writes: ’ ’ “I have used Lydia E. Pinkham’sVegetable Compound for years m mv family and it never disappoints; so when I felt that I was nearing the change of life I commenced treatment with it. I took in all alxttfc six bottles and it did me a great deal of go 11. It stopped my dizzy spells, pains in my Lack and the headaches with which I had suffered for months before taking the Compound. I feel that if it had not been for this great medicine for women that I shcnfid not have been alive to-day.

BIG BANK WRECKED.

A PHILADELPHIA CONCERN IN $7,000,000 FAILURE. Real Estate and Trust Company Goes Down with a Crash—Millions Are Gone; President a Suicide—Mach The,Real Estate Trust Company, the second largest concern of its kind in Philadelphia, suspended business shortly after 2 o’clock Tuesday afternoon becanse of inability to meet obligations to the amount of $7,000,000. THereaTe Teportg of gross misuses of the institution’s millions and criminal prosecutions ure-possible. The hank is the depository for more than $1,000,000 of the funds of the Presbyterian church, $380,000 in tax receipts of the city of Philadelphia and $175,000 of cash of the State of Pennsylvania. The" failure, which is reekonedMEiJe'' greatest in the history of Philadelphia, was due primarily to the suicide Friday of -tiie president of the trust company, Frank H. Hippie. Mr. Hippie, according to the diagnosis made at the time by his physician arid the coroner of Norristown, died of hemorrhage of the brain, but it lias sincte been authoritatively stated that he had taken a dose of laudanum and then gotten Into a filled bath tub, where he w;rs found, apparently drowned. Mr.' Hippie whs one of the best known financiers of the city, was identified also with many charitable and religious institations and was regarded as most conservative. lie was treasurer of the board of trustees of the general assembly of the Presbyterian church, treasurer of the sustenation committee of the synod of Pennsylvania, treasurer of the Presbyterian hospital there and American treasurer of the western section of the Alliance of Reformed Churches holding the Presbyterian system. .Large sums belonging to these: bodies will be tied up or entirely lost in the failure. Mr. Hippie’s financial downfall was due largely to his advancing of money of the bank in aid of enterprises of Adolph Segal, owner of the Majestic 'hotel and a promoter known for the boldness of his operations. Friends of the dead banker express the belief that Sfcgal exercised a hypnotic influence over him. Deficit May Be Million*. The liabilities of the trust company are placed at $10,000,000, against which ■there are quick assets of about $3,500,000 and collateral of about $8,000,000, which is not negotiable or readily cbnvertible. The doubtful collateral is held as security for loans of about $5,300,000 made to Segal. In addition there are loans*of $2,000,000 made to others by Hippie and hidden from the ■directors.

The announcement of the suspension of the trust company followed a meeting of the representatives of the banks and trust companies forming the clearing house association, at which unsuccessful efforts were made to obtain pledges of money enough to help the Real Estate Trust Company ov.er its difficulties, j

There had 1 been rumors that the Hippie estate was badly tangled. Until al most the hour of the failure, however, the fact that the trust company held large amounts of paper of doubtful value was kept a secret, in the hope that the local financiers would agree to underwrite notes and securities belonging to the concern anfi its directors, so as to cover the $7,000,000 needed. Those who attended the clearinghouse meeting, however, subscribed only half of this foreseeing no other source of rflff for the present, the officers of the company immediately applied for the appointment of a receiver. The application was heard by Judge Audenreid, and he appointed George H. Earle, Jr., president of the Finance Company of Philadelphia, as temporary receiver, fixing his bond at sl,000,000. Immediately after the closing of the bank’s doors a crowd of 300 depositors blocked the entrance and clamored for admission. It was necessary to call a squad of policemen to calm them, but there was no attempt at violence. A run had been In progress since the bank opened in the morning, due to rumors ns to the stability of the institution, which were circulated persistently nfter the death of Mr. Hippie. The demands of the depositors did not cause alarm, however, until after noon, when they became so clamorous ns to hasten the suspension of the bank. * The board of publication of the Fresbyterlan church, which had between SIB,OOO and $20,000 on deposit with the trust company, made an effort to withdraw the money, but failed by three minutes. Hearing rumors of tbe unstable condition of the company, members of tbe board notified tbe officials of their Intention to transfer the account to_ the Philadelphia National Bank. A representative of the latter Institution made all haste to the ofik-e of the trust company *nnd arrived thre* minutes after the doors had closed.

r ~— Persistent Anaemia Cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills After Other 1 Remedies Had Felled. " When I began taking Dr. Williams’ .Pink Pills,” say* Mrs. Nathaniel Field, of St. Albans, Somerset county, Maine, “I was the palest, most bloodless person you could imagine. My tongue and gums were colorless and nay fingers and Tike wax. 1 hail 1 ttfiFtKo&JH ’ Iliad spells of vomiting, could not eat, in fact, did not dare to, I had such distress after eating. My stomach was filled with gas which caused me awful agony. The backache I suffered was at times almost unbearable and the least exertion made my heart beat so fast that I could hardly breathe. Bat the worst of all was the splitting neuralgia headache which never left me for seven weeks. About this time I had had several numb spells. My limbs would be cold and without any feeling and-the most deathly sensations would come over me. r “Nothing had helped me until I began fact, I had grown worse every day. After I had taken the pills a short time I could see tlmt they were benefiting mo and one morning I awoke entirely free from pain. The distress after eating disappeared and in three weeks I could eat anything I wanted and suffer no incon--YMriance. I also slept soundly. I have taken several boxes of the pills and have gained in weight from 120 to 154 pounds and am perfectly well now.” Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills cure anaemia because they actually make new blood. For rheumatism, indigestion, nervous headaches and many forms of weakness they are recoin in ended even if ordinary medicines have failed. They are sold by all-druggists, or will be sent postpaid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per box, six boxes for $2.50, ,by the Dr. Williams Mediciuo Company, Schenectady, N. Y.

The Tenacity of Life.

The astounding tenacity with which life clings to the human body is a good thing to remember In these summer days when the bathing resorts are taking their annual toll of human life. The case of Robert Mooney, reported by the life-saving service of the Third ijivi/fe ion, is a good illustration of this fact. He was brought to terra firrna after being under water for twenty-three minutes. Tbe life savers worked over him for an hour and three-quarters before the first sign of returning life was obtained, and "be did not regain consciousness until the next day. If his body had been recovered by ordinary Untrained men there is little question that he never would have regained consciousness at all. After fifteen or twenty minutes of artificial respiration hope would have been given up and the faint little spark of life which evidently re- • paaincd allowed to die out for lack of perseverance. After the removal of water from the lungs artificial respiration should be resorted to and continued for several hours if necessary, a physician of course being summoned at once. —New York Globe.

The Worry Habit.

It Is strange how we borrow trouble. From the first day that we speak a piece at school until the doctor shakes his head and asks us If we’ve got our win made, we are dreading something. If nothing else we worry about our neighbors having more than we’ve got. The fellow courting worries because he is afraid his gal won’t say yes, and when he’s got her he worries because It costs so much to keep her. We worry ourselves old and wrinkled and gray, and more than all this world worry about the next. If there Is anything I like it is a person with a cheerful nature, that won’t worry and borrow trouble.

GOOD AND HARD

Results of Excessive CofTee Drinking;. It is remarkable what suffering some persons put. up with just to satisfy an appetite for something. A Michigan woman says: “I had been using coffee since I was old enough to have a cup of my own at the table, and from It I have suffered agony hundreds of times in the years past “My trouble first began in the form of bilious colic, coming on every few weeks and almost ending my life. At every attack for 8 years I suffered la this way. I used to pray for death to relieve me from my suffering.! I had also attacks of sick headache, and bogau to sufft I* from catarrh of the stomach. and of course awful dyspepsia. “For about a yenr I lived off crackers and*water. Believing that coffee was the cause of all this suffering, I flnnlly quit It and began to use l’ostma Food Coffee. It agreed with my stomach, my troubles huve left me and I am fast gaining my health ueder Its use. “No wonde" I condemn coffee and tea. No one could be in a much more critical condition than I was from the Use of coffee. Some doctors pronounced tr Qlhejrg.Jilceration, Jfrut noue gave me any relief. But since I stopped coffee and began Postum I am getting well so fast I can Irihirtlly recommend it for all who suffer as I did." Name given by Postum Co:, Battle Creek, Mich.

WORST FORM OF ECZEMA.

Black Splotches All Over Face —Affected Parts Now Clear as Ever—Cure'd by the Cuticura Remedies. “"About four years ago I was afflicted with black-splotches all over my face and a few covering my body, which produced a severe iiehing irritation, and which caused me a-greari deal of annoyance and suffering, to such an extent that I was forced to call in two of the leading physicians of my town. After a thorough examination of the dreaded complaint they announced it to be skin eczema in its "worst form. They treated me for the same for the length of one year, but the treatment did me do good. Finally my husband purchased a set of the Cuticura Remedies, and after using the** contents of the first bottle of Cuticura Resolvent In connection with the Cutlenra Soap and Ointment, the breaking out entirely stopped. I continued the use of the Cuticbra Remedies for six months, and after that ’every splotch was entirely gone and the affected parts were left as clear as ever. The Cuticura Remedies not only cured me of that dreadful disease, eczema, but other complicated troubles as well. Lizzie E. Sledge, 540 Jones Ave., Selma, Aid., Oct. 28, 1905.” To awake in man and to raise the sense of worth, to educate his feeltug and judgment so that he shall scorn himself for a bad action, that is the only aim.—Emerson.
