    THE GOME AND SEE SIGN
This sign is permanently attached
to the front of the main building of
the Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine
Company, Lynn, Mass.
What Does This Sign Mean ?
It means that public inspection of
the Laboratory and methods of doing
business is honestly desired. Itmeans
that there is nothing about the bus
iness which is not “open and above
board.”
. It means that a permanent invita
tion is extended to anyone to come
and verify any and all statements
made in the advertisements of Lydia
E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.
Is it a purely vegetable compound
made from roots and herbs — with
out drugs?
Conic and See.
Do the women of America continu
ally use as much of it as we are told ?
Come and See.
Was there ever such a person as
Lydia E. Pinkham, and is there anv
Mrs. Pinkham now' to whom sick
woman are asked to write ?
Come and See.
Is the vast private correspondence
with sick women conducted by
women only, and are the letters kept
strictly confidential ?
Come and See.
Have they really got letters from
over one million, one hundred
thousand women correspondents ?
Come and See.
Have they proof that Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has
cured thousands of these women ?
Come and See.
This advertisement is only for
doubters. The great army of women
1 who know from their own personal
experience that no medicine in the
world equals Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound for female ills
will still go on using and being ben
efited by it; but the poor doubting,
suffering woman must, for her own
sake,be taught eonfidonce.forshealso
might just as well regain her health.
A Spiritualistic Mesalliance.
From the Philadelphia Ledger.
A spiritualist medium cams to a
bouse and claimed to be able to locate
lost friends. The residents had an old
lorse which they had sold years be
fore and the old lady of the house want
ad to know where he was. She began:
“We had a very good friend who
always did all our work. He passed
from us several years ago and the last
sre heard of him was that he was in
Los Angeles.” The medium made a
few mysterious motions, knocked on the
lable and then said:
“Your friend is in Los Angeles and is
married to a rich young woman.”

Had Lots of Business.
B. T. Jocelyn, of Wtehlta, was court
stenographer for Judge Pancoast, of
Oklahoma, for several years. One time
a case was bt-lng tried before Judge
I Pancoust and they were endeavoring
to find out through a witness wheth
er there had been any liquor sold.
“What is your business?" asked the
lawyer. “My business?” repeated the
witness laconically. “Oh, I have lots of
business.” Answer the question.” said
the lawyer. “What is your business?"
“Must I tell all my business?” Insisted
the witness again. “Answer the ques
tion,” interposed the judge severely.
"Well,” responded he cheerfully, "I'm
deputy sheriff and city marshal for
Gulner, janitor of the Methodist church
and bartender of the El Paso saloon.”

High Finance.
From July Llppincott's.
The excursion train was crowded, and
the man In the center of the car knew it
would be Impossible to get out through
the jam to get something 10 eat without
losing Ills seat and perhaps missing the
train. He looked longingly at the restau
rant across the tracks, and, seeing an
urchin sitting on the Iron pipe near by, he
called him over, saying, “Here, son, take
this quarter and run over to that res
taurant and get me a eandwlch. And get
yourself one,” he called after the boy.
“You are easy,” said the excursionist
beside the man. “You'll never see that
kid or your quarter again.”
And as the train whistled at the mo
ment he feared It would be true. Just
then, however, the boy came out of the
restaurant with a large, fat sandwich In
his hand. The train was moving as he
handed up the change and then, taking
a huge mouthful of the sandwich, he
called to the departing man with the hun
ger:
“They only had one left. Thanks!"

"Why, wasn’t the general a good

"Yessir,” he was a very good man."
“Well, then. If he was such a good

The Bight Car.
From Judge.
A traction company in a Tennessee
town is still using the cars bought for
their line when It was constructed—
some 15 years ago. Naturally the
shaky old cars cause much disgust to
those who have to ride In them.
A merchant of the town was particu
larly vexed recently when the motor
man ran his car half k block past him
before stopping. As he -an to catch It
he yelled out;
‘‘Can’t you even stop your blooming
old freight train on the corner?’’
’’That is no freight train,” replied
the conductor; "it's a cattle car.

Jumping at a Conclusion.
From Tit-Bits.
In the amiable way of villagers, they I
were discussing the matrimonial affairs
of a couple who, though recently wed,
had begun to find the yoke of Hymen
a burden.
•' ’Tts all along o’ these hasty mar
riages," opined one caustic old gentle
man, who had been much to the fore in
the discussion. "They did not under
stand each other; they’d nobbut
knowed each other for a matter o’ sev
en year.”
"Well, that seems long enough," said
an interested lady listener.
“Long eno’l Bah, ye're wrong! When
a body's coortin’ he canna be too care
ful. Why, my coortshlp lasted a mat
ter o' nineteen yeur!"
’"You certainly were careful,” agreed
the lady listener. "And did you find
your plan successful when you mar
ried?”
"Ye Jump to conclusions!” said the
old man impatiently. "I understood
her then so I dldna marry her!"
Railways Have No National Policy.
Herbert N. Casson In Broadway .Maga
zine for July.
American railroads have as yet no
national policy. They have few nation
al ideas of any kind. Each one has its
own local interests, and cares little for
anything else. They have never at any
time tried to organize and to unite upon
a policy that would protect the inter
ests of all railways alike. The truth
seems to be that the railroads are no
more united than the red Indians were,
when the white man came to deprive
them of their land. There are seven
great tribes of railroads, and about 600
little tribes, each one jealous of the
others and more enthusiastic for a fight
than for an agreement. This is a fact
of tremendous importance to the out
side public, as it dispels the common
opinion that the railroads are too strong
and united to be controlled.
“Let us alone!”—that is the new slo
gan of the railway presidents. It is
their political rallying cry—their plea—
their defiance. There are some railway
men who are so far behind the spirit of
today that they really believe “Let us
alone" is an argument. They do not
see that the towering fact of the whole
railway situation is this—that the rail
ways have been let alone too long. The
time has arrived when they must adopt
themselves to a higher conception of
the railway business.
FIVE MONTHS IN HOSPITAL.
Discharged Because Doctors Could
Not Cure.
Levi P. Brockway, S. Second Ave.,
Anoka. Minn., says: “After lying for
five months In a hos
pital I was discharg
ed as Incurable, and
given only six months
to live. My heart
was affected. I had
smothering spells and
sometimes fell uncon
scious. I got so I
eouldu’t use my arms,
my eyesight was Im
paired and the kidney
secretions were badly
disordered. I was completely worn out
and discouraged when I began using
Doan's Kidney Pills, but they went
right to the cause of the trouble and
did their work well. I have been feel
ing well ever since.”

WHIPPING POST AND STOCKS
Stood in the Raleigh Court House
Land Until End of the Rebellion.
Raleigh Correspondence Charlotte Ob
server.
Up until the end of the war and a
little while after the whipping post and
stocks stood not far from the north
west corper of the court house and be
tween that building and the present
postolflce, and there the last whipping
took place, though as it began It was
sought to be stopped by a federal of
ficer. The sheriff was, however, simply
carrying out the mandate of the old
court of pieas and quarter sessions.
In those days the stocks and the
whipping post, too, were special attrac
tions, notably to hoys. The latter were
allowed to ridicule people who sat In
the stocks, which held their hands and
feet, hut not to throw anything at
them.
Of course this deprived the boys of
some degree of pleasure, yet they con
trived to get a good deal of fun out of
the thing anyway. It seems odd now
even to think of such scenes as these
must have been. Figure to yourself
passing by the court house green at
Charlotte or Raleigh and seeing a
gentleman held by the ankles and
wrists by wooden bars, sitting there In
the sunshine for all the world to look
at.
Those were the days of the branding
iron, too. A set of gyves of iron, in
use for holding the ankles or wrists,
are on exhibition here, hut of branding
irons there are none. These were used
here in January, 1S65, for the last
time.
Cne-Armed Man’s Swim.
Niagara Falls Special to Washington
Post.
George Powell, a one armed man, swam
the Devil’s Hole rapids of the Lower
Niagara and landed safe at the bridge at
Lewiston, making the trip of two and a
half miles In 35 minutes.
Only two other men have lived through
the maelstrom. One was Carlisle Gra
ham and the other was J. W. Glover, of
Baltimore, who went through In 1906.
Powell wore nothing save a life pre
server to protect hint. He entered the
water just at the flat rock below the
whirlpool and paddled himself to the mid
dle of the river.
When he struck the Devil's Hole rapids
he disappeared under the wraves. and once
for a full minute he was submerged.
Trolley cars followed along the bank, and
hundreds saw the game man battle his
way with the stormy rapids. Just before
he struck the Pits Rock at I^ewlston he
was caught In an offshore eddy and was
whirled about like a cork for twenty min
utes. The buffeting took most all his
strength, but he landed ready to make
the trip again, and twice a week, he sold,
with the proper Inducements.
“And do you live In Chicago proper?”
we asked the self-satisfied individual.
"Well, a* nearly proper us It Is possible
to live In Chicago.”
THE STRATEGY OF
A CANINE FRIEND
Dr. Wm. Grenfell, Noted Lab
rador Explorer, Narrates
an Interesting Case.
From the Boston Transdript.
It happened that none of us knew the
right direction to follow to the village we
were heading for, and there were 20 miles
of rivers, thickets, marshes, and lakes.
My leading dog was the only member of
the party who had ever been there be
fore, and he had been once, a year be
fore, In bad weather, with Dr. Stewart
and a pilot. He seemed so confident, how
ever, that I decided to trust him.
There was no cut path through some of
the drogues of woods, not a single mark
on the ponds, not a pole on the marshes.
The dog was a large, rather short-haired
animal, striped gray and brown, like a
tiger, with an Intelligent face, that always
appeared to wear a grin. Wo called him
“Brin.” I have once before owned a roof
over my head at night to the sagacity
and endurance of this dog. lie was then
a pup, but already leading my team. My
, doctor colleague from Boston, Mass., was
! driving the team behind mine. The third
team was seldom less than a mile behind.
As we covered the first few miles wo
were delighted to find that my dog was
following a path that, we could drive
along, while here and there we found a
stray blaze, showing we were in the
track. The dog would sometimes cross a
pond at right angles to the track, through
the trees, and as It grew late we some
times feared that he wrould not find the
track again. The fascination of watching
the dog would, however, have amply com
pensated for a night in the woods on the
enow. Indeed, It became quite weird to
sit on the sledge and watch the confident
dog go on through the trackless country,
as if It were on a high road.
At last we brought up short. We had
crossed a large double pond, turned sharp
round an Island, and come to an Impene
trable hedge of virgin forest on the steep
side of a range of hills which faced the
lakes. Still the leader Went confidently
on, right into the trees, till all were tan
gled up. But it seemed as if he had no
doubt. We halted to get the dogs back
on the open, and we felt we had better
camp there than go farther and fare
worse. Our Implicit confidence in the dog
at that moment looked like sheer folly,
and I confess to getting off and conferring
with Dr. Little as to what should be done
next. It ended In my donning my snow
racquets and starting for a tour round the
lake, to see If the dog was even on a Lake
with any outlet at all.
Tying up the team I started, but on
passing the very first big tree, I found
the path, narrow’, clean-cut, and taking
the hillside at a sharp angle backward,
so that actually the dog had only gone
the wrong side of one tree and made a
short cut, which hid the narrow path
from us. Naturally we let him have his
own way after that, and once we took
the bay Ice, he brought us to the houses
at a full stretch gallop.
One reads many stories of animal In
telligence, but none of us could name the
sense that brought our brindle dog across
that country. It could not be smell. Not
a soul had crossed the year to leave a
foot scent. It could scarcely be sight,
for the snow and weather had been so
bad the only other time the dog had done
the journey that it had token three days
to cover w’hat we did in less than 12 hours.
It couldn't be hearing. The silence of
the woods is absolute. The dog does not
suggest the idea of much brain matter,
anyhow’. No man’s memory, at any rate,
would carry all the details of those twists
and turns for 12 months, especially w’hen
so many other similar tracts of country
W’ere being traveled dally.
The dog seemed to show a little par
donable pride as he stood up and put his
forepaws on my chest. But as I looked
down into his intelligent face, still wear
ing the everlasting grin, I hardly knew
whether to laugh over the new experi
ence he had afforded us, so finally settled
the conundrum by giving him a double
portion of w'hale for supper.
School for Animals.
"You never heard of schools for an
imals? Well, that shows your ignorance,”
said the professor.
At being found ignorant, so soon after
commencement day, the girl graduate
blushed.
‘'There is an elephants' school in Slam,”
said he. "Young elephants are taught in
it to take up and carry in their trunks
great teakwood logs—no easy task, for
the logs require delicate valanclng. They
are taught to kneel, to answer the various
strokes of the ankus, or goad, and like
saddle horses, they learn several gaits.
" ‘Pets’ schools abound the world over.
There are schools for white mice, for
monkeys, for song birds, not to mention
the famous Jacob Hope phonograph
school for teaching parrots to talk that
is the pride of Philadelphia.
"The big dealers in wild animals usual
ly run small schools where lions, tigers,
bears and leopards are taught simple
tricks. Such schools are very profitable.
Where an untamed lion, salable only to
zoos or menageries, fetches but $1*00 or
so, a broke none will easily fetch double.”
The Umpire.
There was a guy and he tried the game
(Even as you and I.)
At umpiring made a bid for fame,
Out in the field where he went clear lame,
All he knew of baseball was the name,
(Even as you and I.)
He couldn’t tell a strike from a ball
(Even as you and I.)
Most rotten decisions he would call,
Causing fans to wonder at the gall
He showed in making his awful stall
(Even as you and I.)
All fans were after this ump. so hard
(Even as you and I.)
To throw him from the baseball yard,
That he got a gun and a bodyguard,
To keep from b<Ing feathered and tarred
(By such as you and I.)
He kept it up at the shameful rate
(Even as you and I.)
Till the angry mob let lose Its hate
And there on the diamond he met bis fate
For they couldn’t stand his shameful gait
(Even as you and I.)
Oh, the game’s not lost, nor the game’s not
won
By the player who swings the club;
By the boss in the Held is the winning
done,
Be he expert, four-flush or dub.

Summer Styles.
From Hie.
Old fashioned stocks are coming In
again. The new styles were generally
discarded last fall, and. while still In
vogue to a limited extent, are not uni
versally sought after.
Girls are In all colors. They are still
worn on the arm coming down the
aisle. A pretty effect In girls Is seen
at the seashore, where they are gath
ered daintily around one young man.
Although girls are going out all the
time, enough come in to keep them
very popular.
Some of the popular colors are as
follows: In legal circles, black and
white: at Saratoga, long green; In
theatrical circles, red and pink; at the
mint, old gold. An effort to Intro
duce stripes into railroad circles has
completely failed.
Quiet colors In jokes prevail.
Motherslnlaw are scarcely ever seen,
even In barber shops. Insurance effects
have gone out. Punning designs are
seen In vaudeville and circus rings.

AMERICA'S WASTEFUL HABITS.
Many Excellent Materials for Paper
making Are Not Used.
The American nation lias the repu
tation of wasting almost as much of
Its resources as It uses. Facts are oft
en advanced to show that there Is
much truth In such a statement. The
Northwest annually produces a mil
lion and a half tons of (lax stalks
which are not now used for anything.
That amount of waste remains after
the twlnemakers take all they want.
It makes excellent paper. The farm
ers in tho South burn or plough under
13,000.000 tons of cotton stalks every
year. That which is ploughed under is
not wholly lost for It enriches the
soil to some extent, but not so with
what goes up In smoke. Five hun
dred thousand tons of fibre have been
adhering to cotton seed every year. It
has been fed to farm stock along with
the seed and has done the stock no
good. Cattle and sheep do not like the
fibre, and the seed cake is better with
out It. A machine has been Invented
which, it is claimed, will separate the
lint from the seed. Paper makers
think they can use it.
Nobody knows how many million
tons of cornstalks go to waste; but in
quality they are far ahead of cotton
stalks, and it Is believed they can be
made Into paper, although it has not
yet been done on a commercial scale.
The time has not yet come when it is
absolutely necessary that substitutes
for pulp wood be found, but It is com
ing. The forests are still able to fur
nish materials for paper, but they can
not continue to do so for a great many
years to come, at the present rate of
cutting and growth. Makers of paper
anticipate a scarcity of pulp wood and
It Is this which prompts the active
search now going on for substitutes.
Utilizing His Knowledge.
The Bookman tells a story about an
office boy whose share of the day’s
work is confined largely to sorting ex
changes. There was suddeen need of
information of a medical nature, and
the boy was sent for and asked if any
medical periodical came In. At first
he shook his head. Then after a mo
ment’s thought a light broke over his
face. "Yes,’’ he said, “there was one
medical publication. It was called the
Literary Digest.”

ALMOST A SHADOW.
Gained 220 lbn, on Grape-Nuta*
There's a wonderful difference be
tween a food which merely tastes good
and one which builds up strength and
good healthy flesh.
It makes no difference how much we
eat unless we can digest it. It is not
really food to the system until It is
absorbed. A Yorkstnte woman says:
"I had been a sufferer for ten years
with stomach and liver trouble, and
hud got so had that the least bit of
food such as 1 then knew, would give
me untold misery for hours after eat
ing.
"I lost flesh until I was almost a
shadow of my original self and uiy
friends were ijuite alarmed about me.
“Flint I dropped coffee and used
Postum, then began to use Grape-Nuts,
although I had little faith it would do
me any good.
“But 1 continued to use the food
and have gained twenty pounds in
weight and I l'eel like another persou
In every way. I feel as if life had
truly begun anew for me.
“I can eat anything 1 like now in
moderation, suffer uo ill effects, be ou
i my feet from morning until night.
Whereas a year ago they had to send
me away from home for rest while oth
ers denned house for me. this spring
I have been able to do it myself all
alone.
“Sly breakfast Is simply Grape-Nuts
with cream and a cup of Postum, with
i sometimes an egg and a piece of toast,
! but generally only Grape-Nuts an3
| Postum. And 1 can work until no >n
and not feel as tired as oue ho'.r’s
work would have made me a year ago.”

From the New York Press.
Small automatic pumps, very ingen- f
iously contrived, spirited air in be- |
tween the layers of the soles of each
finished pair of shoes.
"That beats me," said the visitor, “I I
never saw air put in shoe sole*
before. Pneumatic like that; are they
springy?"
"No, they’re noisy,” answered tha
foreman of the Lynn factory. “Thesa
shoes ore for the export trade. They
go to Africa. A native African judges
the white man's shoes by their squeak.
The louder they squeak the finer tha
article. In fact, the native won’t wear j;
a non-squeaking, silent shoe. It Is
wind between the soles that makes
shoes squeak. Put in enough and 1
your footwear will be as noisy as two
pigs under a fence. We, by addins
this cheap wind to our product. In- j
crease Its value more than hand-sew- i
ing throughout would.”
