^^9?H ^HBkmH Jy Jg ^$Sj Op&urfiOIVb / When a woman suffering from some form of feminine I disorder is told that an operation is necessary, it of course frightens her. The very thought of the hospital operating table and the surgeon's knife strikes terror to her heart, and no wonder. It is quite true that some of these troubles may reach a stage where an operation is the only resource, but thousands of women have avoided the necessity of an operation by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. This fact is 7. attested by the grateful letters they write to us after their i. s health has been restored. These Two Women Prove Our Claim. Cary, Maine.?"I feel it a datv I all my own work for a family of owe to all suffering- women to tell four. I shall always feel that I owe what Lydia E.

Since Helen, the beautiful, was fooled bv a stranger and carried off to Troy dreamy girls have been lo< king for counts, earls and all sorts of nobility in every tramp and adventurer who came along. In New York recently "Count Angelo Suglia," a full fleged scion of nobility from Italy, had many beautiful girls bowing in admiration to him. St. Joseph's Catholic Club of the Bronx took him in charge aud introduced mm to attractive young ladies of their S3t. They fell down over each other in winning bis smiles and attention. He had more invitations to dinners and entertainments than he could accept. After this had been going on a week or two the ciub gave a dance and the announcement that the count would attend was made. A very' large crowd of pretty pirls was attracted. While stretching their necks and peering around for the count, the president of the club mounted the stage and said that he was sorry to disappoint them by announcing that the count would not attend. He was across the street in a little shoe shop mending shoes and if any one desired to see Lim they could walk across and see him at his work. He told the girls that thoy had been fooled and that the club desired to seo if fkotr r.r.niri frci wild over a cobbler KUUjr ? c - rigged up as a count Ever so long ago that no one remembers the incident, a stranger on horseback passed through this county. He stopped (or the night at a home on the road. Next day he concluded to resc before he resumed his* journey, de rested a week or two and married a young woman. He has never been heard cf to this day Let girls learn never to be fooled by strangers, however agreeable they may be. They will always lied better aud more worthy young men in the range of their acquaintance. Keep shy of smart, good-looking strangers. Died Grieving for Girl Who Forgot. Jackson, Ga., a party of hnnters, who returned here today, reported the | finding of the body of an unidentified man south of here, 'mere was no means of identification, as there were no papers or letters, except a note, beginning with the sentence, "To the little girl who forgot." Held in his hand was half a locket with a picture of a yonng girl. * The path to the poor house is paved with gold brick. i berofthe j <3S. ^ I I/qi?# rra i WC&BS& B illVBll I' iey WAGONS. 1 - BUGGIES SOMETHING. | je Co.* I 3g" I HOW TO BESiST Chronic Coughs and Colds. j Strong vigorous men and women. ? hardly ever catch cold; it's only when i the system is. run down and vitality low that colds and coughs get a foothold. 1 g Now isn't it reasonable that the right way to cure a cough is to build ^ ; up your strength again? I Mrs. Olivia Parham, of East Dur- ^ ham, N. C., says: "I took Vinol for a v chronic cough which had lasted two C years, and the cough not only disap- \{ peared, but it built up my strength. . as well." * The reason Vinol is so efficacious in ... p such cases is because it contains in a delicious concentrated form all the 1! medicinal curative elements of cod. c liver oil, with tonic, blood-building c Iron added. 1 Chronic roughs and colds yield to t Vinol because it builds up the weakened, run-down system. E Ton can get your money back any l time If Vinol does not do all we say. y HARMON DRUG COMPANY. t _ t The Editor's Advantages. e t Did you ever stop to think of how r many more whacks the editor gets at i his yictim than any other business j. man in town does? With the editor the whacking pro- y cess lasts from the cradle to the grave. When a person is born, even before c the preacher gets a chance to baptize t him, the editor has congratulated the happy parents and has specified in ex- j travagant phrases, the weight, sex c and pedigree of the new arrival. At .k the christening: the editor often manS ages to squeeze out a personal item of interest, to his readers which is far f better than the preacher can do for , he has to charge up his labors to the Lord, who is far harder to get cash out of than a subscriber. When the | victim graduates from the town 1 I school the editor generally expects to * reap about a column of good reading matter and sometimes prints a picture. Then if the victim gets mar- . ried, the preacher gets five dollars and the editor gets twenty-five dollars worth of surprise for his readers. When Mr. Victim gets sick the doc- . tor gets a faint chance of some day j collecting a bill against him, but the ' editor has some cash news every day, telling the patients "many friends" ' how the patient is getting along. And when he di2s the editor gets the most valuable news of all, not that he is ever glad of the misfortue, but the news is worth money to him just the same. Maybe the undertaker gets a i little more than the editor, but it is the onlv chance he hn* had a>. hie victim daring his entire career, while tbe editor has been pniling something 1 oot of him all along the line.
