WOMAN'S NERVES

By Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.
Winona, Minn.-" I suffered for more
than a year from nervousness, and was

mend Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound to make weak nerves
strong."-- Mrs. ALBERT SULTZE, 608
Olmstead St., Winona, Minn.
How often do we hear the expression
amonglwomen, "I am so nervous, I can
not sleep," or "it seems as though I
should fly." Such women should profit
by Mrs. Sultze's experience and givo

dard remedy for such ailments.
ly and that even in the sale of strict
ly fresh meat it takes some time for
the money to return to the company's
coffers after the actual sale is made.
"The commission says that the
Packers' profit of one-quarter of a
cent per pound on beef amounts to $5
a ton as compared to only 25 cents
per ton profit on coal. As a matter of
f.ct an average q'glity ton of beef is
worth at wholesale at present about
$400, whereas a ton of anthracite coal
at tidewater is worth only about $7.
Compare a $5 profit on a $400 sale
with a 25 cent profit on a $7 sale. The
beef profit is only about 1 1-4 per
cent, coal profit over 3 1-2 per cent.
"In 1917 Swift & Co. filled over
30,000,000 w)ders of all products with
a total of about 200,000,000 items, a
large part of which had to be weighed
and wrapped separately, while coal is
delivered in car lots or ton lots."
Answering the charge that packers
have agreed among themselves upon
division of livestock receipts, company
gives the maximum and minimum
weekly percentages of cattle purchas
