- ; Mrs. Janssen's experience of interest to childless wives.
Millstor, Wis.—"l want to give you a word of praise for your wonderful
medicine. We are fond of children, and for a considerable time after we
were married I feared I would not have any. I began taking Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound, and it strengthened me so I now have a nice,
strong, h'salthy baby girl. I suffered very little at? childbirth, and I give all
the credit to your medicine, and shall always recommend ithiehly. —Mrs
H. J>NSSEN, Millston, Wis. .
ltfrs. Held of Marinette, Wig., adds her testimonial for Lydia E.
Vegetable Compound. She says:
/' Marinette, Wis.—" I was in a nervous condition and very irregular. My
doctor advised an operation. My husband brought me one of your booklets
and asked me to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. It overcame
ihy weakness so that I now have a healthy baby girl after having been mar
ried nine years. lam glad to recommend your medicine, and you may use my
utter as a testimonial?'—Mrs. H. B. HELD, 33ft.Jefferson St, Marinette,Wis.
There are many, many such homes that were once childless, and are now
blessed with healthy, happy children because Lydia ,E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound has restored the mother to a strong and healthy condition, as it
sets as a natural restorative for ailments as indicated by backache, irregu
larities, displacements, weakness and nervousness.
Women everywhere should remember that most of the commoner ailments
of women are not the surgical ones—they are not caused by serious displace
ments or growths, although the symptoms may be the same, and that is why
BO many apparently serious ailments readily yield to Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, as it acts as a natural restorative. It can be taken
with perfect safety and often prevents serious troubles.
Therefore if you know of any woman who is suffering and has been unable
to secure relief and is regretfully looking forward to a childless old age, ask
her to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, as it has brought health
and happiness into so many homes once darkened by illness and despair.

TIIE SAUCY CLOUDS.
ONE night as Mr. Moon-man looked
over the tops of the trees and
mountains he saw a number of fleecy
Uttle clouds scudding about.
"O dear!" sighed Mr. Moon-man. "I
am afraid I shall have trouble tonight
with those saucy little clouds. I was
hoping as I came up that, they would

of right in the place where I want to

Mr. Moon-man was right; he was to
have trouble with the saucy, fleecy lit
the clouds, and Just as his bright face
peeped over the treetops all the little
fleecy clouds scudded right Into his
face.
Mr. Moon-man ducked and dodged

CATS CONFINED TO "RANGE"
Chicago Man Reports Succes* in Novel
Plan for Keeping Pete From
Straying Far Afield.
Another western Idea was adapted
to city uses the other day when a
south-elder, who once rode the range
on the Colorado plateaus, staked out
his cats to keep them at home. The
plan worked fine and now the feline
animals get the air every day at the
ends of tether ropes.
The cat owner found that every
time he opened the cellar door the
pets made a break for the open, fre
quently staying away for days and
returning with blackened eyes arid
xcn»lched hides. He thought of the j
tethi i plan, but the first trial was not
a success, as the cuts siipi>ed the
nooses from their necks. He then j
evolved a semi-hobble plan and tied j
the heavy string to one of the cat's I
hind legs, attaching the other end of
the string to a stake driven In the j
back yard.
This system proved effective and j
now every day three of the cats take !
their exercise around o their tether
stakes.—Chicago Journal.

At last the old man lost his patience

old Sky Witch. "Tell her to hurry,"
he told the little messenger, "for I
have lost a great deal of time now."
Old Sky Witch came hurrying along
on her broomstick, her long black cape
