These Three Women Tell How The
Escaped the Dreadful Ordeal of
Escaped
Operations.
Hospitals are great and necessary institutions, but they
should be the last resort for women who suffer with ills
peculiar to their sex. Manyletters on file in the Pinkham
Laboratory at Lynn, Mass., prove that a great number of
women after they have been recommended to submit to an
operation have been made well by Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound. Here are three such letters. All
sick women should read them.
Marinette, Wis. "I went to the doctor and
he told me I must have an operation for a female
trouble and I hated to have it done as I had been
married only a short time. I would have terrible
pains and my hands and feet were cold all the
time. I took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com-
pound and was cured, and I feel better in every
way. I give you permission topublish my name
because I am so thankful that Ifeel well again."
-Mrs. FRED BEHNKE, Marinette, Wis.
Detroit, Mich.-" When I first took Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound I was so run down
with female troubles that I could not do anything, and our doctor
sailI g operation.Y o an would have to under I could hardl walk
ohelp so when I read about the Vegetable Compound d what
without e eCo an
it had done for others I thought I would, try it. I got a bottle of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and a package of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Sanative Wash and used them according to directions.
They "
.Phe helped me and today I am able to do all m work and I am well.
Y Y Y
p R 989 Milwaukee Ave. East, Taos. DwYn , e Detroit, Mich.
Bellevue, Pa.-" I suffered more than tongue can tell with terrible
bearing down pains and inflammation. I tried several doctors and
they all told me the same story, that I never could get well without
an operation and I just _dreaded the thought of that. I also tried a
good many other medicines that were recommended to me and none
of them helped me until a friend advised me to give Lydia E. Pink -
ham's Vegetable Compound a trial. The first bottle helped, I kept
taking it and now I don't know what it is to be sink any more and I
am picking up in weight. I am 20 years old and weigh 145 pounds.
It will be the greatest pleasure to me if I can have the opppor-
tunity to recommend jt to any other suffering woman." ---Mies IRtxs
FROELICHER, 1923 Manhattan St., North Side, Bellevue, Pa.

Inspector Mitchell, of 1Vinghatn,
Grown Attorney Seager appeared on
behalf of the 01'etvn, and the counsel
for the defence ryas L. L. Dancey,
The Oeown witness in the first case
was Louis Dalton, tvho testified that
he had purchased a bottle of liquor -
from McGee on 1(tle Day, the !titter
assuring him that lie could obtain it
on the grnunte. The price paid foe
the bottle was 31.50. AleGee did not

A DELICATE CHILD
Made Strong by Our Vino].
Fayetteville, N. 0. -"My little daugh-
ter was in poor health, delicate and
so weak it made us Very uneasy. I
heard about Vinol and decided to try it
and the results were marvelous, her
appetite improved, she gained in weight,
and is now one of the healthiest children
in town. Mothers of delicate children
should tryVinol."-Mre.GORDONJESSUP.
Vinol is a delicious red liver andiron
tonic without oil, a constitutional rem-,
edy which creates an appetite, aids di-
gestion and makes pure healthy blood.
All children love to take it.
F. R. SMITH, Druggist, Brussels
stated that he had procured the liquor
from Clare Swats, paying the latter
$1.50. Sweets, he said, had told him
earlier in the day that he had '-some-
tlliug" with him. Mr. Seager, in sum-
ming up the case strongly contended
that McGee was acting as agent for
Sweets and therefore was liable.
Lawyer Dancey, on the other hand,
maintained that McGee was acting as
agent for Dalton and was not guilty
of the offence The Magistrate, how-
ever, rendered judgment against Mc-
Gee and imposed a flee of 350.00 and
costs. As the second case in which
McGee war charged with selling
liquor later on in the day to Thos.
Joy, Louis Dalton and others, did not
differ materially from the first case, a
conviction was registered against the
defendant, who was again fined $50.00
and costs. Arising out of these cases
Glare Swarts was before Magistrate
Lockhart at the town hall in Goderich
on Tuesday on two charges of selling
liquor on the day of the Dungannon
fair. To one charge he pleaded guilty
and according utn his own n e
for and to
the evidence of \'Vol. Thompson, who
was with Clare Swarth at the time -of
the transactions (or one of them) both
bottles were bought at the same time,
$3 being the amount paid. The evi-
dence of John McGee, however, was
that he made two distinct purchases,
one when six or seven fellows allows. chipped
in and one when 1 h
w n le bought o bottle
b to
for Dalton, and the Magistrate im-
posed a fine of 350 in each case, with
costs. 0. Seeger for the Orown, L.

Hopeful 'letter from the West
DEAR EDITOR -Having a little time
at my disposaithis morning it struck
me I would write you a few lines. 1
left Ontario over a month ago and
have been in Manitoba for a shore
time. Have also been over quite a
large section of Saskatchewan and
now have reached Edmonton, Al-
berta, I had a run through the West
some 12 years ago and I can see a very
marked change during that period.
A person can scarcely realize the ex-
tent of this country unless he is here
and travels over it. To 1ne it is a
country with a great future, Owing
to the increased wheel crop here this
year(something sonlethiu over 800,000,000 bush-
els) and being g spreadtee
d over such a vast
area, the fat mem,
as a whole, are very
pfnepernus this year. 4V hen travel-
ling on a C. P. R. train lately I met a
gentleman, the road has employed
n
1 okimq after the handling of the
grain in connection with thatn
u nd.
He informed me that North of the
Main litre 50 percent of the wheat has
not been marketed yet. If I had not
the information 1 have received from
inert of such itilegt•ity and veracity I
could scarcely have believed the re-
turns per time. For wheat 40 to 50
bushels pe acre is quite common and
in some cases I have been told as high
as 60 bushels neatly all No. 1 and good
prices. The farmers are all right here
this year. Farm lands are good
value.
But on the other hand when we con-
sider the cities and towns it is alto-
gether different. Real estate is very
flat. Nearly every person of any
prominence the trine of the boom put
every dollar they had in real estate
and now the bottom has fallen out of
it and high taxes and other expenses
in connection with all the property
has to be met. Very many of those
parteis are not able to meet those de-
mands and eventually this property
will be sold for taxes. I am afraid

leading local and Outside Buyers In attendance
there will not be many buyers even
then,
I happened to be in one town a few
clays ago where there was 3300,000 of
this year's taxes still unpaid. It
struck me forcibly that town will be.
come insolvent unless the terrible con-
flict now waging in Europe should
terminate soon, Even then it will
take some tirne before there is any re-
action.
If it were not this great depression
at the present time I would be very
favorably impressed with the city
no doubt it will eventually benefit

good country tie the West in the

Yours Sincerely,
