Miss Nettie Blackmore , Min

woman may be permanently
cured of monthly pains by tak
ing Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound.
"YouTfo WOMEN : I had frequent
ieadachcs of a severe nature , dark
spots before my eyes , and at my men-
ctrual periods I suffered untold agony.
A member of the lodje advised me to
try T ydia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound , but I only scorned
good advice and felt that my case was
hopeless , but , ae kept at me until I
' "bought a bottle and started taking1
it. I soon had the bast r3ason in the
world to change my opinion of the
medicine , as each day my health im
proved , and fiually Iwas entirely with
out pain at my menstruation periods.
'I ' am most grateful. " NETTIE BLACK-

FRAUDS IN A BALE OF HAY.
Frnurts in Watch Case * .
According to an article In the Cincinnati
Commercial , a fifty-one pound stone was
recently found In that Hty secreted In a
bale of hay of eighty pounds.
This Is not as bad as finding a lump of
lead of nearly one-half the weight of the
solid gold watch case secreted In the cen
ter of the case.
Gold watch cases are sold by weight , and
no one can see where this lead Is secreted
until the springs of the case are taken ont
and the lead will be found secreted behind
them.
These cases are made by companies who
profess to be honest but furnish the means
to the dishonest to rob the public. It Is
not pleasant for anyone to find that he has
lugged a lump of lead In his watch case.
Another trick the makers of spurious
solid gold watch cases Is to stamp the case
"U. S. Assay. " The United States docs
not stamp any article made out of gold
and silver except coin , and the fakir , by
rslng this s-tainp , wants to make the pub
lic be'ie\e that the go\ eminent had some
thing to do with the stamping or guaran
teeing the fineness of watch cases.
Another trick of the watch fakir Is to
.idvertls > e a warch described as a solid o"d
filled watch with a twenty or twenty-live
year guarantee. These watches are gen
ially sent C. 0. U. , and if the purchaser
has paid for the watch he finds that the
Company which guaranteed the watch to
xxear Is not in existence.
The Diieber-Ilampden Watch Company ,
nf Canton , Ohio , who are constantly ex-
. oslng these frauds , will furnish the
i aines of the manufacturers who are in
this questionable business.
