HUSBAND SAVED
HIS WIFE
Stopped Most Terrible Suf-
fering by Getting Her Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegeta-
ble Compound.
Denison, Texas. — "After my little
girl was born two years ago I began suf-
fering with female
trouble and could
hardly do my work.
I was very nervous
but just kept drag-
ging on until 1 a s t
sunlrner when I got
where I could not do
my work. I would
have a chill every
day and hot flashes
and dizzy spells and
my head would al-
most burst. I got where I was almost
a walking slceleton and life was a burden
to me until one day my husband's step-
sister told my husband if he did not do
something for mo I would not last long
and told him to get your medicine. So he
got Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com-
pound for me, and after taking the first
three doses I began to improve. I con-
tinued its use, and I have never had any
female trouble since. I feel that I owe
my life to you and your remedies. They
did for me what doctors could not do
and I will always prides it wherever I
go."—Mrs. G. 0. LOWERY, 419 W.Mon-
terey Street, Denison, Texas.
If you are suffering from any form of
female ills, get a bottle of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and
commence the treatment without delay.

THE CULTURE OF R EMO

One who is fond of flgwers and of
wo king among them has the source
of one of the deepest, purest pleasures
in the world. Can we enter into the
feeling of this writer' She says—
"The dandelions carpeted the three
lawns—they used to be lawns, but
laevo long since blossomed out into
meadows filled with every sort of
pretty weed—an,) ander and among
the groups of leafless oaks and beeches
were blue hepaticas, white anemones,
violets and ceh1udines in sheets.

absolutely happy and blest and thank-

There is great pleasure to be found
in the cultivation of flower's and ex-
ercise for body, soul and mind. Most
of ns who are housekeepers think we
have bodily exercise enough, but that
which we get in 111e cultivation of
flowers is different from any other.
In it we are taken ant of ourselves
and we go back to our other work ee-
11021100 and helped. Some may say
they have no time for the planting
and cluing for at least a fele shrubs
and vides and flowers are busy indeed
—arid their homes are bare indeed.
Just here I'd like t1(• quote, wnrd for
worth, from one of the books of a well
known lady doctor, "I knew a

sate a plant of this that has beet
under cultivation for three or fou
years and itwas fully six feet high
and vied in beauty with any Otte
plant in the large garden. 11 you
want to spend a little Money on your
border a few roots of different colored
Paeonies and a few Irish bulbs would
be a good investment and the Fall Is
the time to plant them. If you can
get strong little plants of perennials
grown from seed this Summer, you
might put them in now also.
For early Spring bloom you will
need bulbs— tulips, daffodils, liya-
cintlls, crocuses, snowdrops and scilla
—as many as your conscience will al-
low you. They do not cost very
much, a dozen tulips Por 30 cts. ; daf-
fodils about the same and hyacinths
about 00 ate. a doz. ; crocuses, snow-
drops and scilla 0.1)001, 10 cls. a doz. I
would advise getting at least half a
doz. of the same color and kind in the
case of tulips and daffodils and plant-
ing in groups rather than in lines.
A group of a dozen of the one color of
Darwin tulips (the aristocrats of the
tulip 9am117)17)11 give you a picture
on a bright May morning that you
will stand in awe before. A good rule
to follow in planting flowers as well
as arranging cut flower's is to follow
matur0 as neatly (10 possible. Difto.r-
01(1 sized bulbs require to be planted
at different depths, four limes the

Bulbs should be planted in time to

large bulbs deep asp is to prevent vett bhe frost
from getting at the bulb and heaving
it away from its roots. Plant rock
