I Mrs. Hughson, of Chicago, whose^ J letter follows, is another woman in high position who owes her health to the use of Lydia E* Pinkham's Vegetable Compound* “Dear Mr*. Pivkhah: — I suffered for several years with general weakness and tearing-down pains, caused by womb trouble. My appe tite was fitful, and I would lie awake for hours, and could not sleep, until I seemed more weary in the morning than when I retired. After roading one of your advertisements I decided to try the merits of Lydia 13. Piukham’s Vegetable Compound, and I am so glad I did. Mo one can doserite the good it did me. I took three bottles faithfully, and besidos building up my general health, it drove all disease and poison out of my body, and made me feel as spry and active as a young girl. Mrs. Pii chain’s medicines are certainly all they are claimed to be.” — Mrs. M. E. lliroinov, 347 East Ohio St., Chicago, 111. Mrs. Pinkham Tolls Ilmv Ordinary Tasks Produce Displacements. Apparently trilling incidents in women’s dnily life frequently produce displacements of tlie womb. A slip on the stairs, lifting during menstruation, standing at a couuter, running a sewing machine, or attending to the mo6t ordinary tasks may result in displacement, and a t rain of serious evils is started. Tile drst indication of such trouble should be the signal for quick action. Don’t let the condition become chronic through neglect or a mistaken idea ttiat you can overcome it by exercise or leaving it alone. More than a million women have regained health by the use of Lydia 13. Pink ham’s Vegetable Compound. If the slightest trouble appears which you do not understand write to Mrs. Pinkhuui, at Lynn, Mass., for her advice, and a few timely words from her will show yon the right thing to do. This advice costs you nothing, but it may mean life or happiness or both. Mrs. Lelah Stowell, 177 Wellington St., Kingston, Ont., writes: J l “Dear Mrs. Pixkitah: — You are indeed & :* godsend to women, and if they all knew what jl you could do for them, there would be no need M of their dragging out miserable lives in agony. . f “I suffered for years with bearing-down pains, womb trouble, nervousness, and exc ruciating head ache, but a few bottles of Lydia E. Plnkham’s — Vegetable Compound made life look new and promising to me. I am light and Jl \ happy, and I do not know what sickness V * I is, and I now’ enjoy the best of health.” 9 Lydia E. Pinkbam’s Vegetable mm *1 uompouna can always oe reuca upon to reetore health to women who thus suffer. It is a sovereign cure for the worst forms of female complaints.—that bearing-down feeling, weak back, falling and displacement or the womb, inflammation of the ovaries, and all troubles of the uterus or womb. It dissolves and expels tumors from the uterus in the early stage of development, and cheeks any tendency to cancer ous humors. It subdues excitability, nervous prostration, and tones up the entire female system. Its record of cures is the greatest in the world, and should be relied upou with eontidence.

NEBRASKA STATE NEWS CUT MADE CY GREAT WESTERN Materially Charges the Omaha Crain Rates. This statement was made by the Chicago Great Western: Tin* inevita ble result or the 2 cent reduction in the grain rates made by the North western railway December 28. last, has developed in the publication of new proportional rate from Omaha. Council bluffs. St. Joseph and Kansas City to Chicago. When the Northwestern railway re duced tre tnrouga rates trom Nebras ka and Southern Kansas points on grain its competitors at junction poin s were obliged to meet the reduc tion. The Northwestern touches rail way lines in Nebraska which only reach the Missouri river at St. Joseph; and at other paints it touches railway lines whose only Missouri river point is Kansas City. The through rates on grain from sta tions on the Kansas Nebraska bound ary line prior to the reduction by the Northwestern railway were the same through Kansas City. St. Joseph and Omaha to Chicago, the proportional cast of Omaha. Council Bluffs. St. Jo seph and Kausas City being 14 cents on wheat, and from 13 to 11 cents on corn, and the Chicago Great Western has announced these proportional rates to take effect on January 30. In the same tariffs is a proportional rate of 9 cents on wheat and 8 cents on corn from Omaha. St. Joseph, Kan sas City, and Leavenworth to Min neapolis. the through rates from Southern Nebraska and Northern Kan sas points to Minneapolis in effect now lining on a basis equal to 9 cents from Omaha and Kansas City. The local rales to Omaha and Kan sas City from Northern Kansas and Southern Nebraska points, added to the 14 cent rate on wheat and 13 cent rate on corn, the present propor tional rates of the Great Western make a 5 cent higher through rate than the rate that lias been in effect by other lines for tne past thirty days, and the Great Western has found it necessary to make a proportional rate of 9 cents on wheat and 8 cents on corn from Kansas City and Omaha to Minneapolis to meet the current rate-; of the other lines. TO FIGHT INSURANCE LAW. Foreign Companies Will Enjoin Omaha City Tax. OMAHA.—Foreign lire insurance companies doing business in Nebraska will attack the validity of the insur ance sections of the new revenue law, and Attorneys (Ireene, Breckenridge and Kinsler, attorneys for the com panies, will enjoin the Omaha city tax, which will be levied on February 2. The supreme court of Nebraska last month decided that the new revenue law, as a whole, ts valid, but intimated that single sections might be attacked, if deemed Inequitable. The ground for the attack upon the tax levy will be that section 58. tin dpr whicn the assessment and levy are made, is void because the tire in surance companies are dlscriminat against, contrary to the constitution, which requires property taxes to be by valuation, and uniform. Should this section be held consti tutional. the old law will not thereby ! be revived, but foreign fire insurant1" | companies will lie taxed under section | 12 of the new law which relates to j the assessment and taxation of per- j sonal property, and which provides that it shall be assessed at 20 per cent of its actual cash value.
