Second.—The medicine that holds the record for the largest number of absolute cures of female ills is Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. It regulates, strengthens and cures diseases of the female organism as nothing else can. For thirty years it has been helping women to be strong, curing backache, nervousness, kidney troubles, inflam mation of the female organs, weak ness and displacements, regulating the periods perfectly and overcoming their pains. It has also proved itself invaluable in preparing women for childbirth and the change of life. Third.—The great volume of unso licited and grateful testimonials on file at the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn, Mass., many of which are from time to time published by permission, give ab solute evidence of the value of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and Mrs. Pinkham’s advice. Mrs.Pinkham’s Standing Invitation to Women.—Womensuffering from any form of female weakness are invited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pink- ham, at Lynn, Mass. All letters are received, opened, read and answered by women only. From symptoms given, your trouble may be located and the quickest and surest way of recovery advised. Mrs. Pinkham is daughter- in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham and for twenty-five years under her direction and since her decease she has been ad- visingsickwomenfreeofcharge. Outof the vast volume of experience in treat ing female ills Mrs Pinkham probably has the very knowledge that will help your case. Surely, any woman, rich or poor, is very foolish if she doesnot take advantage of this generous offer of assistance. CHICAGO SKYSCRAPERS STOPPED 8Y STRIKE Delay Also In Store For New Courthouse. HUNDREDS OF MEN ARE 01 Millions of Dollars’ Worth of Improve ments Unable to Proceed In the “Windy City”—Carpenters on Strike In Brooklyn, N. Y. Chicago, May 2.—Jusl as the wreck era started the demolition of old struc tures on Wednesday to make room for 000,000 worth of new buildings iu the loop, a strike was called, which promises to tie up the building indus try of Chicago. One hundred structural iron work ers will drop their work and their Idle ness will entail the Idleness of sever al hundreds other workers. The strike promises to be of a large character. Contractors of several large buildings under way down town will especially receive a set-back. Delay is also in store for the new courthouse where the contractors were preparing to begin work next week. The $6,000,000 figure on buildings h only for improvements, the whole fig ures netting up about $15,000,000. The iron workers insist on a wage of $5 a day for 8 hours’ work. The contractors’ offer of $4.60 for four months and $1.80 for the rest of the coming year, was rejected. Aside from affecting directly four iifths of the mchanics engaged in the steel and iron construction work, the strike will throw out of employm mt several thousand other building work ers, such as carpenters, brick layers, hod carriers and stone cutters. * £ m The Oliver NOTICE OF SALE.
