The Kind You Have Always Bought.
THIS is the caution applied to the public announcement of Castoria that
has been manufactured under the supervision of Chaa. H. Fletcher for
over 80 yearn—the genuine Castoria. We respectfully call the attention
of fathers and mothers when purchasing Castoria to see that the wrapper bears
his signature in black. When the wrapper is removed the same signature ap-
pears on both sides of the bottle in red. Parent^ who have used Castoria for
their little ones in the past years need no warning against counterfeits and
imitations, but our present duty is to call the attention of the vounger gener-
ation to tho great danger of introducing into their families spurious medicines.
It ifl to l>o regretted that there aro people who are now engaged in tba
nefarious business of putting up and selling all eorts of substitutes, or what
should more properly be termed counterfeits, for medicinal preparations not
only for adults, but worse yet, for children's medicines. It therefore devolves
on the mother to scrutinize closely what she gives her child. Adults can do
t i tat for themselves, but the child has to rely on
the mother's watchfulness. l

a Good Deal to Learn About
Photography.
Young Bilkins is an enthusiastic de-
votee of amateur photography. He al-
ways insists upon "taking" his family
and friends posed in more or less ar-
tistic attitudes.
Not long ago there was an exhibi-
tion of the work of a local photograph-
ic club to which the young fellow be-
longs, and where were displayed the
results of certain of his efforts to im-
mortalize his family and friends. In
one corner hung a group of figures
twisted into the most extraordinary
positions, the general effect being that
of persons in various stages of par-
[ alysis.
| "Who in the world are those queer-
looking people?'' asked someone.
"Oh, those are some of Bilkins'
strained relations," said a bystander.
Enterprising White.
A writer gives a little sketch of
biack and white in Natal. He tells
how ke came across a white boy, some
fourteen years old, and a group of raw
natives playing a game. They were
(mooting with an old muzzle-loading
shotgun at a bottle on the top of a
case. Wheu the youngster smashed
a bottle lie received a "ticlcey" (a
threepenny bit I from the natives.
When a native lilt it he received three-
pence from the boy.
' That seems a funny sort of game,''
remarked the witness to the boy.
"Oh, the game's all right, sir," re-
plied the lad "You see, I load the
gun."

of the state board of agriculture, At
torney General S. P. Freellng an-
nounced that, following a conference,
his department would render an opin-

Unofficially the attorney general
said that the fund is one that annually
is placed in the hands of the treasurer
of the state by the federal govern-
ment to be delivered by him to the
treasurer of the state agricultural
board, or to be checked upon by the
latter. "The question arises," he add-
ed, "is there a treasurer of the state
agricultural board?"
The same question was propounded
by State Treasurer Alexander, who
exhibited a record showing that F. M.
Gault had been elected treasurer of
the state agricultural board, at a meet-
iip; of that board held Muskogee,
October 9, 3911!, accompanied by a
surety bond of $20,000.

One on Rufus Choate. '
Judge Parry, in a recent article on
"Rufus Choate, Advocate," says on oc-
casion Choate would meet with his
Sam Weller. Defending a prisoner
for theft of money from a ship, a wit
negs was called who had turned states
evidence and whose testimony went to
prove that Choate's cliewfc had insti-
gated the theft.
"Well," asked Choate, "what did he
say? Tell us how and what he spoke
to you."
"Why," said the witness, "he told us
there was a man in Boston named
Choate and he'd get us off if they
caught us with the money iu our
boots."

Is it possible there is a woman in this country who con-
tinues to suffer without giving Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound a trial after all the evidence that is con-
tinually being published, which proves beyond contradic-
tion that this grand old medicine has relieved more suffer-
ing among women than any other one medicine in the world ?
We have published in the newspapers of the United States
more genuine testimonial letters than have ever been pub-
lished in the interest of any other medicine for women—
and every year we publish many ne\* testimonials, all gen-
uine and true. Here are three never before published:
From Mrs. S. T. Richmond, Providence, R. I.
Providence, R. I.—"For the benefit of women who suffer as I have
done I wish to state what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
has done for me. I did some heavy lifting and the doctor said it
caused a displacement. I have always been weak and I overworked
after my baby was born and inflammation set in, then nervous pros-
tration, from which I did not recover until I had taken Lydia E. Pink-
ham's Vegetable Compound. The Compound is my best friend and
when I hear of a woman with troubles like mine I try to induce her
to take your mediaine."—Mrs. S. T. Richmond, 84 Progress Avenue,
Providence, R.L
From Mrs. Maria Irwin, Peru, N.Y.
Peru, N.Y.—" Before I took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com-
pound I was very irregular and had much pain. I had lost three
children, and felt worn out all the time. This splendid medicine
helped me as nothing else had done, and I am thankful every day
that I took it."—Mrs. Maria Irwin, RF.D. 1, Peru, N.Y.
From Mrs. Jane D. Duncan, W. Quincy, Mass.
South Quincy, Mass.—"The doctor Baid that I had organic trouble
and he doctored me for a long time and I did not get any relief. I
saw Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound ad- -
vertised and I tried it and found relief before I had
finished the first bottle. I continued taking it all
through middle life and am now a strong, healthy
woman and earn my own living."—Mrs. Jane D.
