Government to Parallel Canal
With Railroad to Control Land.

With President Taft and Secretary
of 8tate Knox English
Capital Sought Line.
Pnnnmn. Hy n contract signed the
other day Undo 8nm embnrks In tho
business of railroad building In Latin
America. American engineers nro to
undertake nt once the survey of the
'annninnlnn link In the Pan-American
rallrond, 300 miles from the city of

sembly meets next fnll tho govern
ment will hnvo ready to submit a
proposition for tho construction of tho
no ns nn extension of tho present
annum railroad, which Is tho proper
ty of the United States.
The nrgument with which I'nnnmn
has prevnllrd upon tho United States
to go outside tho limits of the cnnnl
zone nnd build railroads for tho Isth
mian republic Is In brief this:
"lilther tho American government
shnll build this link In tho Intornntlon
1 railroad system In ordor to control
the approaches by land to the Panuma
canal, or English. French or German
capital will do It, nnd America will
have Just so much more to do to for
tify tho wntor way."
Kngllsh capital wns bidding for the
line through W. Hnrcourt Palmer, nn
Australian engineer, who hns estab

ty oxploslvo. "Paltnerlto." which tho
cnnnl commission Is adopting as a sub

been tho Amcrlcnn government's fore
most competitor, nnd Panamanian of

that Palmer's bid has been used as n

This Fact that in addressing Mrs. Pinkham you are con
fiding your private ills to a woman a woman whose ex
perience with women's diseases covers twenty-five years.
' The present Mrs. Pinkham, daughter-in-law o Lydia E.
Pinkham, was for years under her direction, and has ever
since her decease continued to advise women.
Many women suffer in silence and drift along from bad
to worse, knowing well that they ought to have immediate
assistance, but a natural modesty causes them to shrink
from exposing themselves to the questions and probable
examinations of even their family physician. Such ques
tioning and examination is unnecessary. Without cost
you can consult a woman whose knowledge from actual
experience is great
MRS. PINKHAM'S STANDING INVITATION :
Women suffering from any form of female weakness are in
vited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn
Mass. All letters arc received, opened, read and answered by
women. A woman can freely talk of her private illness,
to a woman; thus has been established this confidence
between Mrs. Pinkham and the women of America which
has never been broken. Never has she published a testi
monial or used a letter without the written consent of the
writer, and never has the company allowed these confi
dential letters to get out of their possession, as the hun
dreds of thousands of them in their files will attest.
Out of the vast volume of experience which Mrs. Pink
ham has to draw from, it is more than possible that she
has gained the very knowledge needed in your case.
She asks nothing in return except your good will, and her
advice has helped thousands. Surely any woman, rich or
poor, should be glad to take advantage of this generous
offer of assistance. Address Mrs. Pinkham, care of Lydia
