SO SMITH DIDN'T GET IT
Debtor Was Perfectly Willing to Pay
Bill, and the Arrangement Satis
fied All Parties.
A very angry client entered a New
York lawyer’s office. He had called
upon a debtor and asked him politely
to pay a bill of $2.50, and had been
abused for his pains. Now he wanted
the lawyer to collect it.
The lawyer demurred. The bill was
so small that it would cost the whole
amount to collect it.
No matter, said the angry one. I
don t care if I don't get a cent as long
as that fellow has to pay it.”
So the lawyer wrote the debtor a let
ter. and in a day or two the latter ap
peared in high dudgeon. He did not
owe any $2.50, and he would not pay.
"Very well,” said the lawyer; "then
my Instructions are to sue. But 1
should hardly think it would pay you
to stand suit for so small a sum.”
"Who will get the money if 1 pay
it?” asked the man.
The lawyer was obliged to confess
that he should
“Very well,” said the debtor; "that's

Austria.
This note, it is understood, treats
the subject on a purely legal basis ]
and relies largely upon the precedents
laid down by the United States in the
civil war It Is said the allies assume
that the United States government
dors not contend that it has the right
to ship goods without restrictions in- i
to Germany or Austria through con
tiguous neutral countries such as Hoi- ;
land. Sweden and Denmark. The con- j
cession of the right to blockade an '

These Three Women Tell How They
Escaped the Dreadful Ordea! of
Surgical Operations.
Hospitals are great and necessary institutions, but they
should be the last resort for women who suffer with ills
peculiar to their sex. Many letters on file in the Pinkham
Laboratory at Lynn, Mass., prove that a great number of
women after they have been recommended to submit to an
operation have been made well by Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound. Here are three such letters. All
sick women should read them.
Marinette, \\ is.—■ 1 went to the doctor ana
he told me I must have an operation for a femalo
trouble, and I hated to have it done as I had been
married only a short time. I would have tern bio
pains and my hands and feet were cold all the
time. I took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and was cured, and I feel better in every,
way. I give you permission to publish my name
because I am so thankful that 1 feel well again.”

Detroit. Mica.— w ben 1 nrst toot Lyoia
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound I was so run down
with female troubles that I could not do anything, and our doctor
said I would have to undergo an operation. I could hardly walk
without help so when I read about the Vegetable Compound and what
it had done for others I thought I would try it I got a bottle of
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and a package of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Sanative Wash and used them according to directions.
They helped me and today I am able to do all my work and I am well”
—Mrs. Thos. Dwyer, 989 ^Milwaukee Ave., East, Detroit, Mich.
Bellevue, Pa.—“ I suffered more than tongue can tell with terrible
bearing down pains and inflammation. I tried several doctors and
they all told me the same story"? that I never could get well without
an operation and I just dreaded the thought of that. I also tried a
good many other medicines that were recommended to me and none
of them helped me until a friend advised me .to give Lydia E. Pink
ham’s Vegetable Compound a trial The first bottle helped, I kept
taking it and now I don’t know what it is to be sick any more and I
am picking up in weight. I am 20 years old and weigh 145 pounds.
It will be the greatest pleasure to me if I can have the oppor
tunity to recommend it to any other suffering woman.”—Miss Irenb
Froklicher, 1923 Manhattan St., North Side, Bellevue, Pa.

Gas in Photography.
Photography by gaslight—not only
the work of the camera itself, but the
printing of the picture—has been given
an interesting demonstration by the
Photographers' Association of Amer
ica.
George Graham Holloway of Terr*
Haute, lnd., has been using gaslight
in his studio for two years and reports
enthusiastically of its success. With it
a photographer can work as well in a
ground-floor room as anywhere else;
he i9 net hindered by gloomy days or

and the incandescent mantles give him
a light that resembles sunshine more
nearly than any other. It Is not so
