I suffered misery for several years, being troubled with menorrhagia. My back ached, I had bearing-down pains and frequent headaches. I would often wake from restful sleep, and in such pain that I suffered for hours beforo I OOuM go to sleep again. I dreaded the long nights as much as the weary days. I eonsulted two different physicians, hoping to get relief, but, finding that their medicine did not seem to cure me, I tried your Vegetable Compound OA the recommendation of a friend from the East who was visiting me, "I am glad that I followed her advice, for every ache and pain is gon6, and not only this, but my general health is much improved. I have a fine appetite and have gained in flesh. My earnest advice to suffering women is to put away all other medicines and to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege­ table Compound."--Miss Nellie Holmes, 540 No. Division St., Buffalo, N.Y. Hiss Irene Crosby, prominent in Social Life In Savanah, Ga., adds her testimonial to the \z.Z of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Dbab Mbs. Potkbaii :--" It always gives me pleasure to find an article of real value and unquestioned merit. I have found Lydia £. Pinkliam's Vegetable Com­ pound well calculated to relieve and euro the yarious troubles arising from Irregulari­ ties and menstrual pains. " Much suffering could be spared if wa only paid more attention to proper living and diet, but as long as women do not do this, your Vegetable Compound has come to the front as & true friend in need. I have been very pleased indeed with the relief it has brought me. I find that I have perfect health now, and that my mind is also more clear and active since I used your Vege­ table Compound. It has been of great benefit to me, and I gladly recommend it. Very sincerely yours, Miss I rene Cbosby, 813 East Charlton St., East Savannah, Ga."

J In the growth of all plants that form farm crops there seem to be two processes that govern' the increase; and ~ the understanding of the prin­ ciples of these will, I think, help any farmer and every farmer to form ro­ tations for himself that will be ex­ ceedingly valuable; whilst without an understanding of these principles he will be always groping in the dark af­ ter the best methoas, says Prof. J. 3. Robertson of Canada. In the growth of plants one set of conditions make for increase in the size of the roots and the stems and the leaves. These are the vegetative part--the part of a plant that perishes utterly when the plant dies. There Is another part of the plant that does not perish when the growth ends, viz., the seed that carries the life over to the next crop. The conditions which make for the enlargement of the roots and the stems and the leaves, do not make for Increased production of seeds. That is to say, the conditions most favor­ able to the vegetable processes of the plant are not favorable to the matur­ ing processes, but are almost the oppo­ site. If you will allow me a parenthe­ sis: The understanding of that prin­ ciple, ^ith the selection of seeds, will do more to improve farming than any­ thing else I know of in regard to agri­ culture. The set of conditions favor­ able for continued Increase in size of root and size of stem and size of leaf do not make for increase in the quan­ tity of seeds, but rather for the oppo­ site. The extension of the vegetative stages of development--the formation of roots, stems and leaves--is at the expense of the development of the productive parts--the seeds. Take the instance of a bunch of oats growing in a dung hill; what happens? A very large root, a grossly large stem, broad long leaves, and very, very, very few seeds in the head. That is to say, the conditions that make for the con­ tinued enlargement of the root, the increase of the stem, and extension of the leaf do not make for an Increase in number and weight of the seeds. That is an extreme case, but it re­ veals a principle. Now, take another set of extreme conditions, where a plant can grow only with difficulty, either in root or stem or leaf. Look on a bare roadside, where a small grass plant tries to form seeds when only three or four inches high; then count the percentage of weight of the whole plant made up of the seeds; and you have a revelation on the other side. The conditions that make it dif­ ficult for a plant to grow a larger root and a larger stem and larger leaves after the time of ripening has come, make for the increase of the number of, seeds and the increase of the pro­ portion of weight they bear to that of the whole plant Of course, the con­ ditions that make for the Increase of ^|ze of root and size of stalk and size ' aT3'-r-f up's certain point, also make ...i the increase of seeds; because the seeds are formed out of what the plant takes in, through its leaves and roots. But when there is an excess of available plant food in the soil, only late In the growing and maturing pe­ riod of the plant, that may prevent seeds from forming plentifully and ripening thoroughly. That is what happens frequently when farmyard manure is .ploughed In, In the spring, for a grain crop. Notes on English Farming. President Mills of the Ontario Agri­ cultural College recently made a tour of observation through Great Britain. Comparing those countries with Can­ ada he says: For the most part, the country dis­ tricts of Great Britain and Ireland have an orderly, finished look, due, no doubt, in large measure to the lack of stumps, stones and wooden fences. The fields, generally BinaU in Ireland, and rather large in England and Scot­ land are separated from one another and from the highways, usually by green hedges, but not infrequently by neatly-built dikes, or stone fences. A Canadian who has taken note of this feature of the old country landscape cannot but feel ashamed of the un­ sightly, crooked, tumble-down fences to be seen in so many parts of this province, and it Is to be hoped that the coming generation of farmers In this country will make an effort to improve the appearance and increase the value of their farms by straight­ ening and improving their fenceB and removing all stones from cultivated fields, especially the piles which have been ploughed aroun<f, harrowed around, mowed around and reaped around for thirty or forty years. Let the owners haul them away in win­ ter, or some other slack time, and put them together in a neat pile in the woods or some other out-of-the-way place. As a rule, the land in these old countries is well tilled, and there arp npt nearly so many weeds as in most parts of this country. There are, of course, evidences of neglect to be ob­ served here and there, but not luxuriant crops of wild mustard and other pests, such are to he seen near our college and elsewhere in well- known sections of Ontario. No doubt, the rapid spread of weeds in this and other provinces of the Dominion is due, not only to poor cultivation and carelessness in the selecting of seed, but to the fact that so many devote their attention almost wholly to grain- growing, with but little stock-raising, and only occasional seeding with clover. It is now generally admitted that stock-feeding and frequent seed­ ing with red clover are essential, not only to keep land in good heart and enable it to withstand drought, but to keep it clean as well. A small boy was asked by his teach­ er to spell the word "though." After spelling it correctly, she asked why he did not pronounce the last three letters. He thought a moment and then re­ plied: "Because they are deaf and dumb.'* The Turks are but one-sixth of the population of European Turkey. What Marriage Means. Marriage, says John Strange Win­ ter. means the gaining of freedom, tho direction of a household, the spending of an income, the mainte- nance of a position, the life of en* Joyment, the change from a position of comparative insignificance to one of authority; aye, and more than that. It Is the fruition of life, and not; unti^ the plant has reached maturity should there be blossom and fruit. The time in the home, the growth and development at the school and In society--these are the prepara­ tion. /Then oomes the blossom--when, from being a learner, one becomes an actor; when one takes up life for himself and realizes the responsibili­ ties of existence. This is the period before which one should not marry, but after which, it she so wishes, she may do so safely and happily. For what is marriage? A linking of two lives for good or evil, a conscious and continuous ex­ ercise of influence upwards or down­ wards, and, If the heritage of children is theirs, the instilling of principles and the formation of characters which will bear fruit in the ages to come. ..The Most Common Diaease. Yorktown, Ark., Feb. 29th.--Leland Williamson, M. D., a successful and clever local physician, says: "There is scarcely another form of disease a physician is called upon So often to treat as Kidney Disease. I invariabily prescribe Dodd's Kidney Pills and am not disappointed in their effect for they are always reliable. I could mention many cases in which I have used this medicine with splen­ did success, for example, I might re­ fer to the case of Mr. A. H. Cole. "Age 31, greatly emaciated, some fever, great pain and pressure over region of Kidneys, urine filled with pus or corruption and very foul smell­ ing and passed some blood. Directed to drink a great deal of water, gave brisk purgative and Dodd's Kidney Pills. The pills were continued regu­ larly for three weeks and then a few doses every week, especially if patient felt any pain in region of Kidneys. Cared completely and patient per­ formed his duties as farm laborer in four weeks." "Dr. Williamson has been a regular practitioner for over twenty years and his unqualified indorsement of Dodd's Kidney Pills is certainly a wonderful tribute to this remedy.

It protects me from the evil ef­ fects of sudden chauses; it keeps me in Rood appetite; it gives me strength; it keeps my blood in good circulation. I have come to rely upon it almost entirely for the many Iittle.things for which I need medicine. "When epidemics of la grippe first be­ gan to make their appearance in this country I was a sufferer from this dis­ ease. '.'I had several long sieges with the grip. At first I did not know that Pe­ runa was a remedy for this disease.
