TO MRS. PINKHAM
Letters Proving Positively that
there is No Medicine for Woman's
t
j Ills Equal to Lydia E. Pinkham's
i Vegetable Compound.
& .
MRS. ANNIE THOMPSON :
( AM. BETTERS ARE PUBLISHED BY SPECIAL PERMISSION. )
" "I cannot say enough in regard to Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Comp ound.
It has done me more good than all the doctors. I have been troubled with
female weakness in its worst form for about ten years. I had leucorrhoea
and was BO weak that I could not do my housework.
I also had falling of the womb and inflammation of the womb and ovaries ,
and at menstrual periods I suffered terribly. At times my back would ache
very hard. I could not lift anything or do any heavy work ; was not able to
stand on my feet long at a time. Jly husband spent hundreds of dollars for
doctors but they did me no good. Sly husband's sister wrote what the Vege
table Compound had done for her , and wanted me to try it , but I did not then
think it would do me any good. After a time , I concluded to try it , and I can
truly say it does all that is claimed for it. Ten bottles of the Vegetable Com-
and seven packages of Sanative Wash have made a new woman of me , I have
had no womb trouble since taking the fifth bottle. I weigh more than I have
in years ; can do all my own housework , sleep well , have a peed appetite , and
now feel that life is worth living. I owe all to iLydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound. I feel that it has saved my life and would not be with
out it for anything. I am always glad to recommend it to all my sex , for 1
know if they will follow Mrs. Pinkham's directions , they will be cured. "
\ ! Gratefully yours , MRS. ANNIE THOMPSON , South Hot Springs , Ark.
CHANGE OF LIFE.
111 was taken sick
five years ago with
' The Grippe , ' and
had a relapse and
was given up by
the doctor and my
friends. Change
of Life began to
work on me. I
flowed very badly
until a year ago ,
then my stomach
and lungs got so
bad , I suffered terribly ; the blood
went up in my lungs and stomach , and
I vomited it up. I could not eat
scarcely anything. I cannot tell what
I suffered with , my head. My hus
band got me a bottle of Lydia E. Pink-
ham's Vegetable Compound , and before
I had taken half of it I began to im
prove , and to-day I am another woman.
Mrs. Pinkham's medicine has saved my
life. I cannot praise it enough. "
M. A. DENSON , Millport , N.Y.
PROFUSE PERIODS.
"I commenced
taking Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vege
table Compound
about 3 months
ago , and cannot
express the won
derful good it has
done me. Men
struations were so
profuse as to leave
me very weak for
some time after.
Was also troubled with leucorrhoea ,
tired feeling , bearing down sensation ,
pain across the back and thighs. I
felt as though there was a heavy
weight in my stomach all the time.
I have taken two bottles of the medi
cine , and now have better health than
I have Lad for four years. "

ceiver Ills Reason * for the Snspcoalon
of Itusineas Other Matters In Nebras
ka Hero uuil There.
HASTINGS , Neb. , Feb. 16. The Ne
braska Loan and Trust company ,
which has been doing business in
Hastings for over twenty years , has
gone out of business , and J. N. Clarke ,
who was president , has been appointed
receiver. The amount of capital in
volved amounts to over ? 1,500,000 , and
there are 100 stockholders , who are
capitalists In various parts of the Unit
ed States. Mr. Clarke gives these rea
sons for the suspension of business :
"The company has , I think , wisely
decided to go out of business. The low
rates and limited demands for loans in
Nebraska has made the business of
this company at least unprofitable ,
"
maintaining Interest "upon what re
mains of the unfortunate loans made
early in the history of the company
in western Kansas , eastern Colorado
and western Nebraska. The expenses
attending it handicaps the earning ca
pacity of the company seriously. In
order that all parties interested may
be protected , it was thought best to
have liquidation made through a re
ceiver. "
Mr. Clarke has been president of the
company for ten years and he says the
affairs of the company are in the best
of condition , but that it may take four
to five years -before all the business
connected with the company will be
entirely cleared up.
The Nebraska Loan and Trust com
pany was "one of the largest and sound
est institutions of its kind in the west
and has loans throughout the north ,
west and south , but as the margin of
interest has been so greatly reduced
the last three years the company could
not see its way clear to continue doing
business at practically a loss.
LINCOLN , Neb. , Feb. 16 Judge
Munger of the federal court acted fav
orably on an application made by J.
W. Coffin and other stockholders of the

Hastings , Neb. , for a receivership for
the company. James M. Clarke of
Hastings , a former president of the
company , was named receiver and his
bond fixed at ? 30,000.
The company has a capital stock of
$500,000 and has advertised for some
time a surplus of $135,000. The liabil
ities of the company are unknown.

the " 9 o'clock tree" shades the dining
room , while as the sunlight changes
the " 10 o'clock tree" s.iades the room
adjoining It , and so on through the
day. On a sunny day this "tree clock"
insures a succession of shady places
around the house. ,

HALF DEAD SOLDIER.

In Soiltli Dakota.
Bristol , So. Dak. , Feb. 18th , 1901.
( Special. ) Peter Behres says : "When
I returned from the war I found that
I was in a very critical condition. My
system was all run down , and I gradu
ally became worse , until I was hair
dead with Kidney and Bladder Trou
ble. My family wanted me to consult
a physician , but as I had learned
through several of my comrades of the
wonderful cures of Dodd's Kidney
Pills I determined to give them a trial
first. "
Mr. Behres , or Capt. Behres as he
should be called , because he. was cap
tain of the 1st Minnesota Cavalry , and
in 1862 was for fourteen months in
continual service in warfare with the
Indians , is now an honored member or
the G. A. R. , who has reached the ripe
old age of three score years and ten.
He continues : "I am now an old sol
dier , seventy years of age , and enjoy
ing almost perfect health , and all
thanks for this is due to Dodd's Kidney
Pills. I found after having used the
first few boxes that my faith was not
misplaced in them , and in a very short
while my kidneys were doing the work
required of them and the bladder trou
ble was soon eliminated. It wag al
most a year before I was myself , bift
during that time I used Dodd's Kidney
Pills faithfully and with the very beat
results that anyone could wish for. I
would not have been without them for
a king's ransom. I am now well as
any man of my age.
