DearLZ.Pinkham
"For five vears I
was troubledwith a
tumor, which kept
s. aral 1/og powing,eausing mt
iense agony arid
mental depression. I vas unabie to at
nd tomy house work. and ife became a bur
den to me. I was confined fcrdays to my bed,
lost my appetite ny courage and all hope.
I dould not bear to tin- of an operation.
and in my distress I tried every remedy whieb
I thoyght would be of any use to me. and
reading of the value of L-Aia E. Pinikham's
V egetable Compound to slck women decided
to give it a trial. I felt so discouraged tbati
had little hope of recv.(ery. and when I began
to feel better, after the second week, thoughL
it oily meant temporary relief: but to 1my
great surprise I found ihat I kept gainig
while the tumor lessened in size.
" The Compound continued to build up my
general health and the tumor seemed to be
abs-orbed, until, in seven nionths. the tumo:
was entirely gone and I a well woman. I an
so thankful for my recovery that I ask vou
to publjish my lett& in rewspapers, so other
womnen may kuon' of the wonderful curative
powers of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compund."

Resourceful Man.
The late James E. Martin, brother
of Bradley Martin, was a man of ol&
fashionecd Integ:ity and the. illegal
practices of many noted financiers
tnd corporations angered and shock
ed him.
In a discussion of a certain much
investigated .company Mr. Martin
said one day:
Th is concern seems always to have
found it easy to break the law. It has
been as ready and resourceful as a
tenant I once had!.
*My7 tenant was an enthusiastic pig

"'What are you doirng there?'
'"'etting ready to fly this pigeon,
said my tenant.
-'You can't fly- no pigons here;
said the policeman.
"'Why uct?' the tenaent' aeked.
"'It's against the law-that's why
not.' said the ponieemnan. 'If you try
!t I shall 1:e obireed to lock you up.'
"My tenant placed the pigeon or
the ground. strokeri it and said to it
grave-ty: 'I can't toss you up here,
for it's against theD 'gw, so von mnust

The Christian may be compared to "
the palm tree inc the following respects: (1
I. T1hce palnm tree is of humble wI
gr'owth. its stemc being thick in propor- ('h
tion to its height, and is not more coin- th
pliente~d in structure than that of the E
common butcher-broomi. Sometimes it st
produtces a series of adventitious roots. W
which thrust themselves into the soil i
and serve to steady it. On account '
of its weakness Pliny says, they willtc

great things of to-morrow. The Kcing- Cl

Its hea rt is soft an md tender, and is fed
by hidden sprinigs, that flow beneath 'l
the surface of tile ground. Its roots '
drin~k deep. and .are sustained, while

The pailm tree Christian grows in the C

DISFIGURING SKIN HUMOR.
Impossible to Get Employment, as Face
and Body 'Tere Covered With Sores
-Cured by Cuticura.
"Since the year 1894 1 have been trou.
bied with a very bad case of eczema which
I have spent hundreds of dollars trying to
cure, and I went to the hospital, but they
failed to cure me, and it was getting worse
all the time. Five wvecks ago my wife
bought a box of Cuticura Ointment and
one cake of Cuticura Soap, and I am
pleased to say that I am now completely
cured and well. It was impossible for me
to get employment, as my face, head and
body were covered with it. The eczema
first appeared on the top of my head,
and it had worked all the way around
down the back of my neck and around to!
my throat, down my body and around the
hips. It itched so I would be obliged to
scratch it, and the flesh was raw. 1 am
now all well, and 1 will be pleased to re
ommend the Cuticura Remedies to ail pa;
sons who wish a speedy and permanent
cure of skin diseases. Thomas M. Rossi
