A KENTUCKY WOMAN
How She Gained Fifteen Pounds in
Weight and Became Well by Taking
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills.
Women afc forty, or thereabouts, have
their future in their own hands. There
will be a change for the better or worse,
for the better if the system is purified by
such a tonic.as Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills.
Mrs. D. (J. Wedding, of Hartford, Ky.,
writes as follows concerning the diffi-
culties which afflicted her:
“ I was seriously ill and was confined
to my bed for six or eight mouths in all,
during two years. I had chills, fever,
rheumatism. My stomach seemed al-
ways too full, my kidneys did not act
freely, my liver was inactive, mv heart
beat was very weak and I had dizziness
or swimming in my head and nervous
troubles.
“I was under the treatment of several
different physicians Imt they all failed
to do me any good. After suffering for
two years I learned from an Arkansas
friend about the merits of Dr.Williams’
Pink Pills and I decided that I would
try them. The very first box I took
made me feel better and when I had
taken four boxes more I was entirely well,
weighed fifteen pounds more than when
I began, resumed my household duties,
and have since continued in the best of
health. I have recommended Dr. Wil-
liams’ Pink Pills to many people on ac-
couutof what they did for me, and I feel
that I cannot praise them too strongly.”
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills restored Mrs.
Wedding to health because they actually
make new blood and when the blood is
in full vigor every function of the body
is restored, because the''blood carries to
every organ, every muscle, every nerve,
the necessary nourishment. Any woman
who is interested in the cure of Mrs. Wed-
ding will want our book, “Plain Talks to
Women,” which is free on request.
All druggists sell Dr. Williams’ Pink
Pills, or they will be sent by mail post-
paid, on receipt of price, .r)0 cents per box,
six boxes for $2.f>0, by the Dr. Williams
Medicine Co., Schenectady, N.Y.

JAMES S. HARLAN APPOINTED TO
INTERSTATE COMMISSION.
Former Attorney General to Porto
Rico Honored by President—New
Member Comes from a Dis-
tinguished Family.
Oyster Bay. N. Y.—President Roose-
velt has appointed Janies S. Harlan of
Chicago a member of the interstate
commerce commission. Mr. Harlan is
a son of John M. Harlan, associate
justice of the supreme court of the
United States. He held for some time
the position of attorney general of
Porto Rico.
In the appointment of Harlan as a
member of the commission, President
Roosevelt has honored Chicago and
Illinois and the nation as much as the
man who is to sit r.s a representative
of the people in the difficult task of
adjusting railway rates and framing

(New Member of the Interstate Com-
merce Commission.)
rules that shall be just to shippers
ami carriers alike. In the prime of
his young manhood, Mr. Harlan has
been chosen to fill a place of the great-
est importance to the business and
transportation interests of the coun-
try. That he is prepared to accept
the responsibility with confidence is
not altogether due to himself alone,
for back of James S. Harlan is an an-
cestral line whose blood is as good as
the coutnry boasts.
His forebears were patriots who, in
legislative halls and on the field of
battle, fought for the liberties of the
nation. His father, soldier and jurist,
is now a member of the most distin-
guished trlbuanl of the world; his
brothers stand preeminent in the com-
munity. There is no taint in the Har-
lan blood.
In the time of Henry Clay, one of
the closest friends and political confi-
dants of the great statesman was
James Harlan, member of congress
from Kentucky. Clay Harlan, uncle
to James, answered the call to arms
during the war with Mexico, wounds
and exposures received in that con-
flict ending his life. Silas Harlan,
great uncle, was a pioneer of old Vir-
ginia, and gave his life at the battle
of Blue Licks, while fighting shoulder
to shoulder with Daniel Boone.
James S. Harlan is a hoosier. He
was horn at Evansville, Ind., Novem-
ber 24, 18G1, but the foundations of
his education were laid in Kentucky,
his early schooling being at Louis-
ville. In 1883 he graduated from
Princeton university, and then studied
in the law school of Columbia univer-
sity. From 1884 until 1888 he was in
the offices of Melville W. Fuller, now
chief justice of the supreme court of
the United States, while that distin-
guished lawyer was practicing in Chi-
cago. He was admitted to the Illinois
bar in 1886. In 1897 he married Miss
Maud Noble at Washington, D. C.
Physically, James Harlan has the
characteristics of his family. They
are all big men, are the Harlans, and
James is more than six feet tall,
weighs beyond 200 and carries his
pounds with the ease and grace which
tells the athlete whose muscles are
in magnificently fit condition.
James S. Harlan is of the breed that
produced the chivalry of the south.
The male line represents the old-time
plantation owners; the old homestead
still stands at Winchester, Va., and
one of the schools of that place has
had a Harlan for a teacher since the
time when the memory of man run-
neth not to the contrary.
The father of the new interstate
commerce commissioner, John Mar-
shall Harlan, is associate justice of
the supreme court of the United
States, a member of that distinguished
tribunal since November 29, 1877. He
is a native of Kentucky, and from the
outbreak of the war until 1863 com-
mauded the Tenth Kentucky regimefit
of the union army, serving with Thom-
as and Sherman. Rev. Richard Dav-
enport Harlan, another brother, is
president of Lake Forest university.
John Maynard Harlan, another bro-
ther, is one of the best-known men in
Chicago and as an orator has few
equals.
INVENTS CLOCK THAT TALKS
Ingenious Mechanism Is the Creation
of a St. Louis Man.
St. Louis.—This city has a clock
that talks. Instead of striking the
hours, it speaks them. It is one of
the most unique electrical novelties
that has yet been invented and it is
the creation of a St. Louis man, who
confidently believes that it will put
the clock with chimes, and the Ger-
man cuckoo clock out of business.
According to its inventor. Mr. Charles
C. Bishop, the clock can be put to a
large variety of uses. As an alarm
clock, Mr. Bishop and those interested
with him believe that their invention
is absolutely certain to make a hit.
Think of being awakened in the morn-
ing by a clock that says to you: “Get
up, you sleepyhead; it’s time to go to
work.” Then if the sleeper fails to
heed the admonition, the clock re-
peats the order in a voice that re-
sembles a foghorn. The clock speaks
the hours, half hours and quarter-
hours, just as a human voice speaks
them. It is set the same as an ordi-
nary timepiece. In fact, the only dif-
ference between this talking clock and
the ordinaly clock is that the former
is supplied with a graphophone in-
geniously attached to its mechanism,
and which takes the ordinary recoids.
At any time the clock record may be
removed and other records put in,
making a graphophone out of the
clock. As an advertising novelt/ in
stores, Mr. Bishop thinks it will also
become popular. You may walk into
DESIGNS FOR TALKING CLOCKS.
a grocery store, for instance, and the
clock tells you to buy “Sykes’ soap,”
or “Hipp’s hominy,” or “Olsen’s oats.”
Mr. Bishop, the inventor of the talk-
ing clock, is the inventor of many
other successful patents. Out of nine
claims filed with the United States
patent office in behalf of the clock, he
has been allowed six.

BABY’S TORTURING HUMOR,
Ears Looked as If They Would Drop
Off—Face Mass of Sores—Cured
by Cuticura in Two Weeks
for 75c.
“I feel it my duty to parents ot
other poor suffering babies to tell
you what Cuticura has done for my
little daughter. She broke out all
over her body with a humor, and we
used everything recommended, but
without results. I called in three doc-
tors, they all claimed they could help
her, but she continued to grow worse
Her body was a mass of sores, and
her little face was being eaten away;
her ears looked as if they would drop
off. Neighbors advised me to £et
Cuticura Soap and Ointment, and
before I had used half of the cake
of Soap and box of Ointment the
sores had all healed, and my little
one’s face and body were as clear
as a new-born babe’s. I would not
be without it again if it cost five dol-
lars, instead of seventy-five cents.

St., Akron, Ohio.”
Scorpions Cause Disaster.
Scorpions were to a great extent re-
sponsible for the recent bursting of
the Kamalapuram tank in India.
There had been very heavy rains,
but when an attempt was made to
preserve the hank of the tank scorpi-
ons issued from crevices in the earth-
work in such numbers that the at-
tempt had to be abandoned. Over 30
laborers were stung.—Shanghai Mer-

Cure For_The Blues
ONE MEDICINE THAT HAS NEVER FAILED
Health Fully Restored and the Joy of
Life Regained.
When aclieerful, brave, light-hearted
woman is suddenly plunged into that
perfection of misei*y, the BLUES, it is
a sad picture. It is usually this way :
Sh£ has been feeling “out of sorts’’
JArs. Rosa yidam,
for some time; head has ached and
back also; lias slept poorly, been quite
nervous, and nearly fainted once or
twice; head dizzy, and heart beats very
fast; then that bearing-down feeling,
and during her periods she is exceed-
ingly despondent. Nothing pleases
her. Her doctor says : ‘ ‘ Cheer up: you
have dyspepsia; you will be all right
soon.’’
But she doesn’t get “ all right,” and
hope vanishes; then come the brood-
ing, morbid, melancholy, everlasting
BLUES.
Don t wait until your sufferings have
driven you to despair, with your nerves
all shattered and your courage gone,
but take Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege-
table Compound. See what it did for
Mrs. Rosa Adams, of 819 12th Street,
Louisville, Ky., niece of the late Gen-
eral Roger Hanson, C.S.A. She writes:
Dear M-rs. Pinkhain;
“ I cannot tell you with pen and ink what
Lydia E. Pinkbam’s Vegetable Compound
has done for me I suffered with female
troubles, extreme lassitude, 4 the blues,’
nervousness and that all-gone feeling. I was
advised to try Lydia E. Pinkhain’s Vegetable
Compound, and it not only cured my female
derangement, but it has restored me to perfect
health and strength. The buoyancy of my
younger days has returned, and I do not suf-
fer any longer with despondenev, as I did be-
fore. I consider Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege-
table Compound a boon to sick and suffering
women. ”
If you have some derangement of
the female organism write Mrs.
Plnkham, Lynn, Mass., for advice*
