While nothing Was done In the matter, there Is a disposi tion to string out the meetings over a longer period so that all of the farmers in attendance can attend all of them. As It Is now the various associations are all In session at the same time and thereby thoe who come to Lincoln are denied the pleasure and profit of attending a large number of the meetings. ..

We hear everyday the same story over and overstrain. " I do not feel well I am so tired all the time !" More than likely you speak the same words yourself, and no doubt you feel far from well. The cause may be easily traced to some derangement of the fe male organs which manifests itself In depression of spirits, reluctance to (ro anywhere or do anything, backache, bearing-down pains, flatulency, nerv ousness, sleeplessness, or other fe male weakness. These symptoms are but warnings that there is danger ahead, and unless heeded a life of suffering or a serious operation is the inevitable result. The never-failing remedy for all these symptoms is Lydia E. Pinkham'S Veg etable Compound. Miss Kate McDonald of Woodbridge, N. J., writes : Dear Mrs. Plnkhsnv " Restored health has meant so much to me that I cannot help from telling about it for the sake of other suffering women. " For a long time I suffered untold SRony with a female trouble and irregularities, which marie me a physical wreck, and no one thought I would recover, but Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound has entirely cured me, and made me well and strcnn, and I feel it mv duty to tell other suffering women what a spfendiil medicine it is." For twenty-five years Mrs. Pinkham, daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham, has under her direction, and since her decease, been advising sick women free of charge. Her advice is f,ee and always helpful.
