LIFE WAS ft
MISERY TO HER
Says this Woman Until Re*
tiered by Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound.
Carrollton, Ky.—“I suffered almost
two years with female weakness. I
* could not walk any
distance, ride or
take any exercise at
all without resting.
If I swept the flpor
or did any kind of
work it would bring
my sickness on. I
was weak and lang
uid. had no energy,
,and life was a misery
to me. I was under
the care of a good
_physician for sev
eral months and tried other remedies.
I had read of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege
table Compound and decided to try it.
After taking twelve bottles I found
myself much improved and I took six
more I have never had any more
trouble in that respect since. I have
done all1 kinds of work and at present
am an attendant at a State Hospital

recommend it.’’-.Lillian Tuarp, 824

Hay £6ver—Causes—Cures.
"iXam subject to yearly attacks of
h*H? fever," A. B. writes. "What can I
<U> to prevent them?”
Every year it becomes easier to an
swer questions similar to this. Hay
fever is of two types—that which comes
In the spring and the regular August
autumn kind. As a rule spring hay
fever is due to grass pollen, while that
of the August-autumn type is due in
the main to ragweed.
A sufferer can discover which pollen
causes his trouble by having skin tests
made. The pollen vaccines prepared for
making these tests are put out by the
drug manufacturing concerns, and any
physician can get therft. The method
of testing is so simple that any physi
cian can carry it out.
The time to make these tests is now,
months in advance of the hay fever sea
son. In fact, it is already rather late to
begin a campaign to ward off spring
hay fever this spring.
Having established which pollens are
responsible, the next step Is to test to
see how sensitive tho patient Is. Testa
are made with pollen extracts diluted
as little as 1 to 100, with other dilutions
of 1 to 100,000, and with still other dilu
tions in between.
Having determined the smallest dose
which will cause a reaction fealment
to decrease sensitiveness Is begun. The
treatment consists In getting the patient
used to this pollen by Injecting him hy
podermically with very small doses of
It—doses too small to cause any reac
tion. If time is pressing the Injections
should be given at four day intervals.
If there Is plenty of time the interval
Bhould be one week. The amount in
jected should be increased slightly each
week. After mar.y treatments the pa
tient becomes so accustomed to pol
lens that he no longer reacts to them.
If a case comer? on at the hay fever
season and has the typical symptoms
of hay fever It cAn usually he presumed
that the case is one of hay fever and
the only testing (hat need be done is for
sensitiveness to pollen.
The number of hay fever sufferers
who chase the climate cure runs into
the thousands, the amount of money
they spend annually Into the millions.

Shoes 30 Cents Pair.
From the New York Sun.
Men's shoes, showy fashionable shoes,
for $1.20 a pair, and a good pair of
women's shoes for 30 cents; a good cloak
for a man or woman for $1.80, and $3
for one of extra fine material, cut by a
fashionable tailor. Twelve and one-half
cents for a meal for three children, and
two and one-half cents for a meal for
an old man.
These are some of the prices paid In
ancient Athens about the time of De
mosthenes, 350 years before Christ. They
are given in "Studies in History, Econ
omy of Athens,” by George Bancroft,
the American historian. He tells us that
the whole expense of building was in
considerable. The price of houses varied^,
from $45 to $1,800, according t<l
situation and Quality. The l»*ter price
was unttsually high'; half ulc sum would
purchase a good duelling house.
Under SolgP'^a bushel of wheat was
worth Brents, from 390 to 380 years
before'Christ it cost about 30 cents, and
ill ^Fie age of Demosthenes 60 cents was
considered a fair price.
It did not cost much for some men to
live in those days, even famous men.
Socrates, "wisest of mortals," is sup
posed to have lived on an Income of $76
a year, but then, the historian tells us,
his manner of living was inferior to
that of the slaves. His coat was old
and shabby and he wore the same gar
ment both winter and summer; he went
barefoot; his chief food was bread and
water; and "as he engaged in no kind
of business to mend his estate and in
crease his fortune It is not wonderful
his wife, the famous antlppe, scolded
often.”
Of course there is a fly in all this oint
ment of ancient low prices. They were
exceedingly moderate but so were
wages. The great number of slaves who
came into competition with the free
labor reduced the price exceedingly.
Mere manual labor could be procured
for 10 cents a day. That seems to have
been the lowest rate "and is not lower
than the present price of labor In many
parts of Europe,” says Bancroft, writing
in 1855.
What Will Bryan Do?
Under the caption, "We Have With
Us Again”—! the Omaha World-Herald
editorially treats of the election of Wil
liam Jennings Bryan as delegate at large
to the democratic national convention:
On the face and according to the indi
cation of partial returns from Tues
day’s democratic primary election, W. J.
Bryan has won one of the most notable
personal triumphs of his long career.
The World-Herald is frank to recognize
it and to attach proper importance to its
significance.
Mr. Bryan failed utterly in his effort
to induce Nebraska democrats to deny
to Senator Hitchcock their indorsement
for the presidential nomination. But, in
the face of the known fact that tits own
candidacy for delegate-at-large was
hostile to the democratic national ad
ministration, and to the administration's
policy on the League of Nations, and In
the face of his reputation of the primary
law, he has succeeded, apparently. In
accomplishing his own election and the
election of several if not most of the
candidates on his slate for delegates to
the national convention. He has pos
sibly succeeded, also, in accomplishing
the defeat of National Committeeman
Mullen, a strong administration sup
porter and ono of the ablest national
leaders of his party.
This means, if the final returns bear
out present Indications, that William J.
Bryan is commissioned by the democ
racy of this state to go to the San Fran
cisco convention as a free lance dele
gate. with full opportunity to devote
his power and talents to either guerilla
or open warfare upon the leadership of
President Wilson and the policies for
which he stands. It means, unless we
entirely miss our guess and misread his
purposes, that there will be "hell-a-pop
ping” at San Francisco with Mr. Bryan
the chief fireman and trouble maker.
• • • » • • • •
And the most significant development
of that result Is that the shining dome
of Old Doctor Bryan, his face beaming
with renewed ambition and strengthened
determination, appears once more above
the democratic horizon after a long per
iod spent in the basement.
May a kind heaven have mercy en our
beloved but distracted country.

"Of course,” rejoined the true fishes

of a hay fever resort is a skin test

The question In not whether Jones gets
relief at SaltaJ.r, but whether this par
ticular Individual will. The only way
to know that Is for the person Interested
to have himself tested and then to go
somewhere where his pet aversion does
not abound.
Some hay fever subjects develop bron
chial asthma toward the latter part
of the hay fever season, some still earl
ier in the course of the complaint. These
cases fall Into two groups. In one
group there In so much pollen and the
patient is so sensitive that the pollen
gets into his tubes and sets up a condi
tion there similar to the well known
condition in the nose and eyes.
There is nothing for persons in this
group to do but stay in rooms, the open
windows of which are covered by damp
cheese cloth, and to wear veils. As
soon as the season is over they should
begin vaccination, so as to be ready
for the next season.
The second group develop bronchial
asthma, because they are highly sus
ceptible to the poisons from certain
bronchial tube bacteria, as well as to
pollens. Therefore, all hay fever sub
jects who are accustomed to develop
ing bronchial asthma before the season
is over should have skin tests made for

Baby Specialists. 1
yHAf there are Physicians who specialize on Infant ailments you blow. All
Physicians understand Infant troubles: all Physicians treat them. It is his
profession, his duty, to know human ills from the Stork to the Great Beyond.
But in serious cases he calls in the Specialist. Why? He knows as every
Mother knows, or ought to know, that Baby Is just a baby, needing special treat
ment, special remedies.
Can a Mother be less thoughtful ? Can a Mother try to relieve Baby with
a remedy that she would use for herself? Ask yourself; and answer honestly!
Always remember that Baby is just a baby. And remembering this you
will remember that Fletcher's Castoria is made especially for Infants and
