It may be interesting to note the fol
lowing statement of mileage o'f the
new York Central , leased and operated
lines , which shows the total miles cf
track east of Buffalo as 6,114.81.
It is , of course , generally known that
some of the western lines have a
greater mileage , but their tracks run
through a number of sparsely settled
states , while the trackage of the New
York Central and leased lines is all in
the densely populated States of New

passengers each year.

A woman in ; New Matamoras , Ohio ,
MRS. ISA BELL BRADFIELD , tells in the
following letter how she fought with
disease of the feminine organs until
finally forced to take to her bed. She
cays :
1 DEAR MRS. PINKHAM I feel it my duty to write to you to
tell you that I have taken Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and think there is no medicine in the world like it. I
suffered for nine years , and sometimes for twelve weeks at a
time I could not stand on my feet. I had female troubles of
all kinds : backache , and headache all the time.
Seven different doctors treated me. Some said
I would have to go to the hospital and
have an operation performed. But oh 1
how thankful I am that I did not , that
I tried your Vegetable Coin-
pound instead. I cannot say
too much in its praise , nor'
thank you enough fcr what it
has done for me. I want you
to publish this in all the papers
for the good of other
sufferers. "
The wives and
mothers of America
are given to over
work. Let them be
wise in time and at
the first indication
of female trouble
write to Mrs. Pink-
ham at Lynn , Mass. ,
forheradvice. This
advice is promptly given without charge.
The present Mrs. Pinkham's experience in treating female
ills is unparalleled ; lor years she worked side by side with
Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham , and for sometime past has had sole
charge of the correspondence department of her great busi
ness , advising and helping by letter as many as a hundred
thousand ailing women during a single year.
