bone marrow has something to do with
the production of corpuscles and that
spleenless men can live in perfect
health more operations are being per

Stopping an Epidemic
An epidemic in Kambum Japan was
traced to a certain stream of water
but as the natives who drank the
water could neither see nor smell the
germs of the disease they continued
to drink from the stream Then the
police allowed kerosene oil to trickle
into the water and this evidence of
pollution proved convincing and ended
the epidemic

some trouble arising from a derange
ment of the female organism which
manifests itself in headaches back
aches nervousness that bearing down
feeling painful or irregular menstrua
tion leucorrhoca displacement of the
uterus ovarian trouble indigestion or
sleeplessness There is a tried and
true remedy for all these ailments
Lydia E Pinkhams Vegetable Com
pound has restored more American
women to health than all other reme
dies in the world It regulates
strengthens and cures diseases of the
female organism as nothing else can
For thirty years it has been curing
the worst forms of female com
plaints
Such testimony as the following
should bo convincing
Mrs T C Willadsen of Manning
la writes
Dear Mrs Pinkham

words For two years I spent lots of money
in doctoring without any benefit for men
