THE DAILY WHIG, WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER 15 Miss Gannon, Sec'y Detroit Amateur Art Association, tells young women what to do to avoid pain and suffering caused by female troubles. "I can conscientiously recommend Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound to those of my sisters suffering with female weakness and the troubles which sa often befall women. I suffered for months with general weakness and felt so weary that I had hard work to keep up. I had shooting pains and was utterly miserable. Yo my distress I was ad= vised to use Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and it was a red letter day to me when I took the first dose, for at that time my restora- tion began. In six weeks I wis a changed woman, perfectly well in every respect. I felt so elated and happy that I want all women who suffer to get well as I did." -- Miss GUILA GANNON, & Jones St., Detroit, Corresponding Sec'y Mich. Amateur Art Association. -- $5000 forfeit if original cf above letter proving genuineness cannot be produced. It is clearly shown in this young lady's letter that Lydia E. *inkham's Vegetable Compound will surely cure the sufferings of women ; and when one considers that Miss Gannon's letter is only one of hundreds which we have, the great virtue of Mrs. Pinkham's medi- cine must be admitted by all.

Many causes were advanced of thankfulness of the the churches. Brock Street church was conoratulated upon the kindlv act of General Conference in assumine hall of its depressing building debt, and the efforts of the congregation toward raisinoe the other half would, it was felt, be seconded by substantial aid from members of other churches and communions.

He savs he intended to keep it ouict about his going to New York, buc the fact leaked out, and there was quite a crowd at the New! York station to sree him.

However, he was hungry id quietly took a cab from 1 and Central for the Waldori-As- torin. Next day the leading makers placed their beit-boats at his disposal and told him not" to be afraid to ex- press any criticism he felt justified in making, because they were always ready to improve their constructions. "Tom" quietly picked up the best points in each and then placed an or- der for a craft, which will be a com- bination of the best,twith a few ideas of his own. . From remarks dropped, his friends would not be surprised to sce a boat diiven by liquid air power, supplied from shore, received hy wireless Mar- coni system. There might be a olass bottom to see rTocks, but there cer tainly will be a good towing post, to take disabled boats of others ashore. There may be a long distance ol to see those followi while an lidison record will take the comments of those he passes on his way. It is quite pos sible the construction of the boat will permit of pneumatic skates being ar vanged for ice racing.

Asked what chance Kingston would have of getting coal were the strike settled this week or next, W. G. Craig said : » "There are eleven coal dealers in Kingston and [I have no doubt but what a number of them will be able to get some cargoes within a month We have contracts filed with the firms on the Sther side since last spring. and, of course, these have not been filled. There will be navigation for two months vet, so 1 have every rea son for saving that if the strike is soon settléd, we will be selling hard coal as usual at & a ton, and' per haps cheaper. At any rate | do nct think it-will be higher than that." Capt. Crawford said that in his opinion there would be little chance 1 coal coming to Kingston this ) even were the strike settled now. James "Swift : 1 certainly think hard coal will come to Kingston be fore December 1st if the strike is set tled next week. Will the price be low cred 7 Well, we never charged over $7 a ton for all the hard coal we had, and it is likely that we will-he- able to sell the new coal at the same figure." eet. Important To.Our Festival. The importance of, the Thanksgiving festival lies!in the fact that on this day. the people of Canada are called upon to attribute their happiness, peace 'and prosperity, not to the ge nius of Washington or: Brock, nor to the victories of Wolfe or the astute statesmanship "of this or that oredt president or politician, but to the love and mercy and "power of Almighty God. "We regard" the" yearly appoint 1 of a dav _of national thanksgiv ing as the happiest, the most dignifi ed, the best method that a country could resort to in vindicating itself from the charge of irreligion and plac ing itself on the same plane with oth er Christian nationalities.
