Mrs. Barbara Base, of Kingman, Kansas, writes to Mrs. Pinkham: 44 For eight years I suffered from the j most severe form of female troubles and was told that an operation was mv only hone of reeoverv. I wrote Mrs. Pinkham for advice, and took Lydia E. Pinkham*a n rnmniirnil. and it has saved j my jife and made me a well woman." j Mrs. Arthur E. House, of Church j Road, Moorestown. N.

I suffered from female troubles, and last March my physician decided that an operation was necessary. My husband objected, and urged me to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and to-dav I am well and strong." FACTS FOR SSCK WOMEN. For thirty years Lydia E.

For That Bull Feeling After Eating. kJ I have used Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets for some time, and can testify that they have done me more good than any tablets I haee ever used.

CI LaSJUU lilt; lir.M tciisua I as estimated by Director North, will ue $i2,bi>0,000. Tha director says that thi9 is bat $410,000 more than the. cost of the census of 1900, and says that this will be accomplished "in spite of the enormous growth in the population during the last decade, a growth largely contributed by foreign-born people, who do not speak English, a class which is very expensive and very difficuit to enumerate. If the work can be done for thi9 sum it will be the first time in the history of the nation that a census ha9 been taken and compiled at practically the same cost as the prior enumeration." The increase, he savs, heretofore from decade to decade ha9 been about 50 per cent. Coughs that are tight, or distressing tickling coughs, get quick and certain help from Dr. Shoop's Cough Remedy. On this account Druggists everywhere are favoring Dr. Shoop's Cough Remedy. And it is entirely free from Opium, Chloroform, or any other stupefying drug. The tender leaves of a harmless lung-healing mountainous shrub give to Dr. Shoop'9 Cough Remedy its curai xl. _ tive properties, mose leaves nave one power to calm the most distressing Cough, and to soothe, and heal the most sensitive bronchial membrane. Mothers should, for safety's sake alone, always demand Dr. Shoop's. It can with perfect freedom be given to even the youngest babes. Test it once yourself, and see!

They will be equally divided between the sun and moon. Three of the numbers, total eclipse of the sun, a total escapse of the moon, another eclipse of the moon, will be visible in here while the fourth, a partial esclipse of the sun, will not be visible in this country. A total eclipse of the sun, which will occur on June 17, will be visible * ~ TTrtJfnrl Ct-dfai: Tirith PY.

A total eclipse of the moon will appear, or rather disappear, June 3, which will also be visible in this part of the country. A total eclipse of the moon is scheduled for November 26 and 27 which will be in the nature of a Thanksgiving offering. This eclipse will be in plain view in Branchville and the smoked glass can be called into play on this occasion. A partial echpse of the sun, De~ ceaiber 12,i3, will not be visible to tae people of the United States. j The old-fashioned way of dosing a I weak stomach, or stimulating the heart j or Kidneys is all wrong. Dr. Shoop j first pointed out this error. This is I why his prescription?Dr. Shoop's Re- j storative?is directed entirely ro the cause of these ailments- the weak in- i side or controlling nerves. It isn't so dikir-ult. says Dr. Shoop, to strengthen a weak Stomach, Heart, or Kidneys, if one goes at it correctly. Each inside organ has its controlling or inside nerve. 1 ? t l-i A/>v_ \\ I It'll IIH.'SC UtiYCS lilix. I licix i UU.-'C v>igans must surely falter.
