Inflammation of the Ovaries by Lydia E
Pinkhams Vegetable Compound
Dear Mrs Pinkjiam Eighteen months ago I was a pretty
sick woman I had felt for some months that I gradually grew
weaker but finally I had such severe pains I could hardly stand it
I had taken cold during menstruation and this developed into conges
tion of the ovaries and inflammation and I could not bear to walk or
stand on my feet The doctor recommended an operation which I
would not hear of One of my friends advised me to try Lydia E
Pinkhams Vegetable Compound so I gave it a trial Can
you imagine my feeling when within two months I felt considerably
Detter my general health was improved and my pains had entirely
disappeared I kept taking it six weeks more and am now enjoying
the best of health thanks to you Yours truly Mrs Sophie Binns

Not In the Trnsfc
This is a favorite expression with
persons who have goods on hand that
they wish to sell to the public But
their goods are not always good Neith
er have they a right at all times
to claim that they are not in the
trust As a matter of fact they gen
erally are in the trust Trusts know
the advantage of advertising their
goods as not in the trust It helps
them to sell an inferior article that
they may pay dividends on watered
stock The Defiance Starch company
has no false stock on which to pay
dividends They simply manufacture
the best starch that is made anywhere
in the world and sell 1G ounces for

LAKE HAS NO OUTLET
Remarkable Natural Phenomenon Reported by an American
Traveler
riijmvjM urvvJvrTTTnr
A resident of New York fetches back
with him from a visit in Australia
the story of a most startling lake
Lake George the largest lake of New
South Wales Australia has no out
let except evaporation For a series
of years the brooks that tumble down
the mountains which edge the lake
may steadily contribute to it a larger
quantity of water than is evaporated
from its surface
Then the lake steadily rises The
water pushes north and south until the
lake Is twenty one miles or more in
length with a width of seven or eight
miles
For another series of years the water
brought by the brooks may be sieadily
smaller than the quantity evaporated
Then the lake begins to fall shrink
ing in a few years to half its former
dimensions this process going on
sometimes till Lake George entirely
disappears except for a few water
holes in the lowest parts of its bed
The lake was in flood during 1891 ex
tending north and south for twenty
one miles with a depth of twelve feet
Twice In the last century thousands
of sheep and cattle were pastured on
large areas now covered with water
They were the most numerous repre
sentatives there of the larger forms of
animal life just as fish and water fowl
are to day
The cabins of the stock raisers or
squatters as they were called were
scattered over the meadows Veg
etables were raised and patches of
wheat So little was known of Lake
George in those days that the herders
really had a feeling of security and
permanency but the day came when
the rising water swished around the
cabins drowned some of the stock and
drove the squatters to the highlands
Everybody knows now that the bed
of Lake George offers a very uncertain
tenure to settlers When it comes in
PATHETIC TALE OF WOE
Young Mans Dignity Sorely Hurt by His Trials in a Dentists Office
J K L Carter is a young man of
considerable personal dignity He is
also extremely careful of his personal
appearance and therefore he has been
cf late spending sometime in the den
tists chair Mr Carter admits that the
man who sits in a tilting chair with
a towel tied round his neck and his
mouth pried open by a couple of
corks does not present a dignified ap
pearance but he contends that the re
sults justify the means employed
Last Thursday young Mr Carter
went over to the dentists office to see
about having one of his front teeth
fitted with a crown As a preliminary
step it was necessary for the dentist
to take a plaster cast of Mr Carters
mouth
Mr Carter leaned back in the chair
and the dentist and his assistant came
in the latter bringing with him the
hot and liquid plaster The plaster
was inserted and Mr Carter was told
to shut his teeth down hard
Itll take five minutes the den
tist said for the cast to harden
Then Ill come in and relieve you
The dentist and his assistant went
out of the operating room leaving the
young man in the chair Just as they
left the room the telephone bell rang
and the dentists wife asked him to
meet her on the ground floor
Ive got somebody here I want you
to meet she said Ill only keep you
a moment
The dentist went down the eleva
tor saw his wife and started to re-
to view again perhaps no attempt will
be made to utilize it on so largo a
scale as was one in the 30s and 40s of
the last century
The lake lies at the lower end of a
basin so walled in by mountains and
hills that the drainage into it has no
chance to escape to the sea It was
long before this fact was discovered
Some early maps show Lake George
as the probable source of a small river
known on the coast but a careful sur
vey finally revealed the fact that not
a drop of water escapes from the basin
except to the clouds
The native blacks have always re
garded it with superstitious dread
When they piloted the first exploring
party to the lake in 1820 the first
reports of Its existence came from the
blacks in 1818 a splendid sheet of
water was found
The whites were first perplexed and
then amused by the stories the natives
told them It was years before it was
discovered that the natives had been
trying to tell in their imperfect way
of phenomena that mystified them It
all seemed very uncanny to the poor
blacks who feared the lake and usually
avoided it
Since 1849 the lake has never been
wholly dry It varies much in size
sometimes being only eight to ten
miles long and four to six feet deep
and then swelling again to its largest
proportions At times one may drive
on dry land across a part of the lake
where a few years later there are ten
or twelve feet of water
For nine years after 1855 a farmer
used the narrow northern part of the
lake as a cattle run cultivating at the
same time about ten acres of wheat a
year fifteen feet of water covered this
part of the lake in 1876
A little money -therefore is a dan
gerous thing
turn but he was met at the elevator
door by the starter who gave him
startling news
Im sorry sir but there is some
thing the matter with the elevators
and they are all shut down Theyll
be running again in 10 minutes
The dentistss office was on the 17th
floor and he Knew it wonld take him
half an hour to climb up even if he
survived the trip So he sat down
and waited
Meanwhile young Mr Carter in the
dentist chair sat and felt the plastei
harden into a rocklike grip on his
bicuspids and molars Soon he found
himself unable to move his jaws He
went out into the reception room but
the dentists assistant was out in the
hall trying to find what was the mat
ter with the elevators Tbe waiting
patients in the reception room looked
at him as if he were crazy
Half an hour later the dentist got
back to his office He found Carter
speechless but purple in the face with
rage It took the joint and long-continued
efforts of the dentist his assist
ant a cold chisel a couple of drills and
a gimlet to separate Mr Carter and the
cast The first thing he said when he
recovered the power of speech was not
at all fit for publication
Mr Carter is now patronizing an
other dentist and the dentist whom he
deserted has absolutely forbidden his
wife to call him up on the telephone

Outlaws Rocky Stronghold
Soon To Be Demolished
ose8saoa3SsG POesessQ8Qss
The notorious Hole-in-the-wall in
former years a rendezvous for cattle
rustlers murderers and train and
bank robbers is soon to be a thing of
the past The county commissioners
have called for bids for blasting out
a section of the high wall of red sand
stone through which a small stream
now flows and along which there is a
narrow trail leading through the wall
of rock to the fertile valleys within
It is proposed to widen this trail
which was used by outlaws for many
years and which guarded by a few
men made the hole a veritable fort
ress so that freight teams and or
dinary vehicles can pass in and out
of the hole-in-the-wall country
Several hundred pounds of dynamite
and giant powder will be used in the
work In many places hundreds of
tons of rock will be blasted away from
the walls while at other spots only
a few feet of rock will be removed
An old tumbledown log house was
for many years the headquarters of
the outlaw band It was only a mile
from the entrance to the hole and
here with a guard at the entrance the
thieves lived in perfect safety It was
here that the stolen horses and cattle
were corralled and their brands
changed
Back of this ranch and extending for
a distance of forty or fifty miles is a
fertile valley broken here and there
by small rolling hills Springs of
sparkling water located in numerous
rpots in the valley feed a small stream j
in which there are millions or trout
Along the valley of this stream and its
tributaries there are beautiful mead
ows furnishing an abundance of grass
for thousands of cattle and horses and
it is no wonder that the outlaws chose
this romantic and virgin spot for their
hiding place
In early days the hole-in-the-wall
country was settled by ranchmen says
a Casper Wyo special to the New
York World but the depredations oi
the outlaws soon drove the rancher
out With the passing of the central
Wyoming outlaw however the rich
country is again becoming settled by
peaceable and law abiding citizens and
evil doers will never again find a safe
hiding place there

For over twenty five years 1
suffered from catarrh and for
over ten years I suffered from
catarrh of the stomach terribly
I have taken alt kinds of medi
cines and have been treated by
all kinds of doctors as thousands
of my acquaintances are aware
In different parts of the United
States where I have traveled but
my relief was only temporary
until a little over a year ago 1
started to take Peruna and at the
present time I am better than I
have been for twenty years
The soreness has left my stom
ach entirely and I am free from
Indigestion and dispepsla and will
say to all who arc troubled with
catarrh or stomach trouble of any
kind dont put it off and suffer
but begin to take Peruna right
away and keep it up until you
are cured as you surely will be if
you persevere
My wife as many in the southwest enn
say was troubled with a bad cough und
bronchial troublo and doctors all over tho
country gave her up to die as they could
do nothing more for her Klio began taking
Peruna with tho result that bho is better
now than she has leen in years and her

soreness has left her lunijs and she isas well
