your Vegetable Compound has done for me. It has helped me
more than anything else. I suffered for a long time with ner
vousness, pains in back and limbs and falling of the womb;
also had neuralgia in my head and could not sleep. I told
my husband that some
thing must be done, for ;
I was nearly frantic with !
pain. Having read of j
the wonderful cures;
LydiaE. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound had ;
performed, I determined
to try it. I have taken
it and am happy to say I
am cured. I recommend it
to all my friends and never
tire of telling the benefit I
have derived from Its use. I
have you alone to thank for
my recovery."

"Tust hold up your umbrella, sir, arc"
sho'll stop nt once," was the chceiy
response given an Inquiry as to the
possibility of boarding nn npproachlng
fraln on Us way from Wadcbrldgo to
lloilwln, two queer old towns In Corn
wall, Cngland. Up went the umbrella,
and sure enough the driver shut off
steam nnd 'pulled up Just In front of
the would be passenger. And what a
sight It was!
The cngliu tns constructed In
George Stcphoson'A time nnd, I be
lieve, under his pcnmtiaJ supervision.
But the enrrlngofc. There tTe two of
them, first nnd third clais, respective
ly. The first class accommodation
consisted of an open truck, such as one
cob dnlly In New York carting cottou
bales or other merchandise but pro
vided with some benches. Kude nnd
uncomfortable its It Hcemed, however,
it was luxurious compared to the thin)
class carriage, which was neither moro
nor less than a common closed au,
such as cattle or furniture arc con
veyed In, and boasted neither seats,
buffers nor pprlngs. Third class fnra
was but 14 cents, but the first class
passengers were mulcted In the sum
of 25 cents for a Journey of barely
seven miles.
The engine driver, who ofllclnttd In
cidentally as conductor, brnketnnn.
guard nnil porter, came nround collect
lug the tariff.
A little conversation elicited somo
surprising facts In connection with
this nbsurd out of date Hue. Formerly
It had been the custom to sell tickets at
tho termln, little triangular bide nnd
white bits of pasteboard, with a hole
! the middle, so that tho tlc'-cct col
lector (also engine driver, stoker, etc.)
could file them nway on a string. But,
alas, the ravages of time spare not
even railway tickets, and cvc'ntually
they were all worn out! Sa now tho
fnrcs arc collected on board. The rate
of speed was strictly limited to ten
miles an hour, but Incidental delays,
such as picking up passengers, chasing
stray hats, removing cattle or sheep
from tho track, took up so much time
that not Infrequently nn hour and a
half or moro was consumed In cover
ing the short dlstnnce. I mny mention
that passengers picked up on the way
Bldo paid no regular fare, but merely
tipped tho engineer.
Tho need of tlrno tables was un
known, for the train ran but one way
each day, nnd arranged the time of de
parture to suit Intending travelers. It
Is related with much gusto in those
parts that two commercial travelers
once arrived at Bodwln Just In thno to
sec the train round a curve some quar
ter of n mile off. Turning to the nged
station master, Mr. Worth, 0110 of
them Inquired nt what hour the next
train would leave. "Day after tomor
row," laconically answered that offi
cial. Tho astonished drummer looked at
hi in pityingly nud, nudging his com
panion, whispered, "Poor fellow; ho'a
crazy." But they were soon unde
ceived and, learning tho truo state of
the case, hired a cart at some expense
la accomplish their Journey. What was
their mortltlcatlon, after proceeding a
couple of miles, to so the train put
back to Bodwln, because, us they sub
sequently discovered, tho engineer bad
forgotten to bring ills pipe alongl
An Interesting function nlwnys took
i!aco whenever an Incline wan renehed.
The driver, having regtilnted the speed
of his Iron horse, would climb out on
the front ot the engine, and, sltMns
.bstween the bnffers, strew sand on tho
rails; occasionally It has happened
that, the supply of sand proving Insuf
ficient, the engine would stenm nway
to the depot lu search of more.
The country through which the little
railway passes Is of a high order of
bea"ty and affords many picturesque
glimpses. Bodwln Itself Is n quaint lit
t'.o town that dates back to the days of
the Phoenicians and In later times was
of much Importance. This mny bo
Judged from the fact that It supported
a cathedral and no less than 13 other
churches. The retrains of an old bper
Douse nro still to be seen, commemora
tive of tho terrible scourge that In 1350
ravaged the whole country around. But,

CANCER
Surgical operations and flesh destroying plasters are useless, painful and dangerous, and besides, never cure Cancer.
No matter how often a cancerous sore is removed, another comes at or near the same point, and always in a worse form.
Docs not this prove conclusively that Cancer Is a blood disease, and that it is folly to attempt to cure this deep-seated, dangerous
blood trouble by cutting or burning out the sore, which, after all, is only an outward sign of the diseose-a nlace of exit for
thepoiion? r
Cancer runs in families through many generations, and those whose ancestors have been afflicted with it are liable at any
time to be stricken with the deadly malady. J
Only Blood Diseases can be Transmitted from One Generation to Another
