Pinl:"ham's Vegetable Compound has proved very beneficial to me, for now I am well and have a sweet, healthy baby, and our home is happy. * "I was an invalid from nervous prostration, indigestion and female troubles. "I think I suffered every pain a woman could before I began taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and I think it saved this baby's life, as I lost my first one. "My health has been very good ever since, and I praise your medicine to all my friends." ?Mrs. Verna Wilkes, R. F. D. No. 1, Piattsburg, Miss. The darkest days of husband and wife are when they come to look forward to a childless and lonely old age. Many a wife has found herself incapable of motherhood owing to some derangement of the feminine system, often curable by the proper remedies. In many homes once childless there are now children because of the fact that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound makes women normal. If you want special advice write to Lydia E.Yinkham Medicine Co.

Experts declare that the reason stomach disorders are so common in this country is due to hasty and careless habits of eating. Stomach troubles and run-down conditions also usually go together. John Lind, of Oneonta, N. Y., says: "I have been troubled with a bad stomach trouble for fifteen years, and became so weak that I could hardly walk or do any work. My appetite was very poor, and it seemed impossible to get any relief. -Since taking two bottles of Vinol I find that it has already made a remarkable improvement in my health; my digestion is much- stronger, and I have gained in weight" Vinol makes weak stomachs strong because it strengthens and tones up the weakened, tired and overtaxed nerves of the digestive organs. Vinol is easily assimilated by the weakest stomachs, and is delicious to the taste. Try a bottle of Vinol with the understanding that your money will be returned if it does not help you.

"Are yon coining down?" he asked as he looked up and licked his chops. 'Wot very fast." "I don't complain of that," panted the Wolf, but what hurts my feelings is the fact that you didn't climb a tree at the start instead of giving me this useless chase.

"Naturally 1 do. and I ask the favor that you kill me with a club instead of slowly torturing me to death by singing 'Only a Pansy Blossom/" But the Hare determined to heap coals of tire on his head and prove her own forgiving spirit. She therefore brought him water and food and nursed him until he was quite able (o take care of himself. The very next day after they separated the Hare was ^crossing a field when she found horse if pursued by a Fox. After running a long distance she was overtaken, and as she was knocked over she recognized in her assailant the very Fox whose life she had saved.
