PAGE TWELV™ THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG, SATURDAY, APRIL 10, 1909. dl When thousahds of women say that they have been cured of their ailments by a certain remedy, does this not prove the merit of that remedy ? I'housands of women have written the story of their suffering, and have told how they were freed from it by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable €dmpound -- for thirty years these reports have been published all over America. Without great merit this medicine could 'never have gained the largest sale of any remedy for woman's ills-- never could have become known and priz=d in nearly every country in the world. n Can any woman let prejudice stand between her and that which will restore her health? If you believe those who have tried it you know this medicine does cure. Read this letter from a grateful woman, then make up your mind to give Mrs, Pinkham's medicine a chance to cure you. Caniften, Ont.-- "I had heen a great sufferer for five years One doctor told me it was ulcers of the uterus and another told me it was a fibroid tumor. No one knows what I suffered I would always be worse at certain periods, and never was reg- ular, and the bearing-down pains were terrible. I was very ill in bed, and the doctor told me I would have to have an opera~- ° tion, and that I might die during the operation. {1 wrote to m sister about it and she advised me to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Through personal experience I have found it the best medicine in the world for female troubkes; Tor it has cured me, and I did not have to have the operation after all. The Compound also helped me while passing through Change of Life." --Mrs. Letitia Blair, Canifton, Ontario. JF or 30 year's Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has been the standard remedy for female ills. No sick woman does justice to herself who will not try this famous medicine, Made exclusively from roots and herbs, and has thousands of cures to its credit. Mrs. Pinkham invites all sick wainen to write her for advice. She has guided thousands to health free of charge.

In the case of horses which are performing unusually {hard work through long hours a general exception might be made to this rule, due to the fact that the animals are re- quired to eat and digest larger quantities of concentrated food in order to perform the work and maintain their weight.

Con- | finement in-doors in over-heated and | nearly always badly ventilated rooms | --in the home, the office, the shop and {the school--taxes the vitality of even | the strongest. The blood becomes thin {and watery or clogged with impuri- |ties. Sometimes you get up in the | morning just as tired as when you {went to bed.

Johnson, Loch Broom, N.B., says: "Some two years ago I began to feel that my constitution was weakening. 1 could not stand any exposure or knocking about. I finally sought the aid of a doctor who said my system was very much run down, and that the trouble might end in nervous prostra- tion. As his medicine did not help me I decided, on the advice of a fgiend, to give Tv. Williams' Pink Pills a trial. I ha. used less than a half dozen boxes when my health was fully re stored, and I think no other medicine can equal these Pills when one is run down and out of health."

At a Ladies' Evening of the Union Society in Lincoln's Inn, London, Ar- thur Forbes moved the following reso- lution: "That this House would wel- come the imposition of a special in- come tax upon bachelors ahove the age | of twenty-five," and proceeded to recom. mend it on the ground that the bachelor was better able to bear additional bur- dens than the married man, who, more- over, ought to be encouraged in every possible way. Hg looked forward to the day when. lpthelorhood would be regarded with contempt in all civilized countries, and also in Ireland. : Miss Woods of the Pioneer Club, who announced -herself as speaking from the point of view of the surplus woman, opposed, the motion. In her experience of bachelors, as a rule they had no income to tax; at any rate, that is what they told her when she asked them why they did not marry. As there were a million more women than men in the United Kingdom it was impos- sible for all women to be married un- . the | for | Medicine | | gratulated upon the obviously sincere less widowers were compelled to marry ¥nt that they became cramped and selfish, and in many ways objection- able. She spoke," she said, from sad experience, for she had followed many men fo the altar in the capacity of bridesmaid, and she invariably noted that whereas theé® bride improved after marriage, in nearly every instance, the bridegroom went steadily dowh hill. So she preferred them to remain bache- lors. . One married man expressed the opin- ion that the country is far;more in peril from the cold-blooded, calétlating, com- | mercial spinster who would not marry | on a small income than from the bache- | lor. An unmarried lady thought that | twenty-five was too young; thirty-five | was quite soon enough for a man to | marry, and from that age she would impose a cumulative tax, so that if a | man was not married at fifty he would | be faxed out of -existence. She said frankly that she preferred married men to bachelors, who seemed to be under the impression that if an unmarried woman asked them to tea she was going to turn the gas down and get him to propose. -- Notes And Comment.
