ROPE SUPERIOR TO LEATHER SPECIAL MEDAL FOR THIS DOG
Fibrous Material Rapidly Supplanting
Belting in American and Euro-
pean Mills and Factories.
For 20 years there has been an in-
creasing use in $his country of manila
rope for power transmission in mills
and factories in place of leather belt-
ing. In English factories ropes super-
seded belting long ago, and their use
is nearly universal. In the United
States the qhange that has taken place
began with the acquisition of the Phil-
ippine islands, where, as everybody
knows, the manila lieinp flourishes.
The fiber of this hemp varies in length
from 6 to 12 feet, and occasionally at-
tains a length of 18 feet. It is said
to possess greater tensile strength
than any other fiber known, exceed-
ing 50,000 pounds per square inch.
Rope drives, as transmission ropes are
called, possess the advantage of nolse-
lessness, owing to their flexibility and
to the existence of an air passage in
the' grooves between the rope and the
sheath.
Comfort.
"You children would-rather go to a
moving picture than to Sunday
school ?"
"Yes," answered the small girl. "It's
darker in the picture theater and we
don't have to have our faces washed."

you behind your back. He will talk

St. Bernard Forgot EternalFeud With
Cat Family and Braved Flames
v to Save Pussy.
The supply of Carnegie hero medals
would soon give out if all the brave
and thoughtful dogs were remembered.
A St. Bernard in the town of Everett,
Mass., mindful of the traditions of
snowbound travelers and his Alpine
monastery, has just effected a triple
rescue that entitles him to whatever
dogdom can offer in the way of canon-
ization, to match the name of the saint
that his devoted breed already bears.
First he woke up the families in two
apartments by his loud barking when
a fire broke out, and then, having
started the human beings on their hur-
ried exodus to safety, he darted bacfc
through the smoke, got the family cat,
which had been forgotten in the ex-
citement, and reappeared with his
tribal enemy in his mouth. Would all
human beings have been so magnani-
mous?—Philadelphia Ledger.

HOW WOMEN AVOID
SURGICAL OPERATIONS
Some Are Extremely Necessary, OthercMay Net Be
Every Woman Should Give Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound a Trial First
Chicago,111. —"I was in
bed with a female trouble and
intlammation and had four
doctors but none of them did
me any good. They all said i
would have to have an oper-
ation. A druggist's wife told
me to take Lydia E. Pink-
ham's Vegetable Compound
and I took 22 bottles, never
missing a dose and at the end
of that time I was perfectly
well. I have never nad occa-
sion to take it again as 1
have been so well. 1 have a
six room flat and do all my
work. My two sisters are
taking the Compound upon
my recommendation and you
may publish my letter. It ia
the gospel truth and I will
write to any one who wanta
a personal fetter."—Mrs. E.
H. Haydock, 6824 SL Law-
rence Ave., Chicago, 111.
A Vermont woman
adds her testimony to
the long line of those
fortunate women who
have been restored to
health by Lydia 12.
Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, after it had been decided an operation was necessary:
Burlington, Vt.—"I suffered with female trouble, and had a number of
doctors who said that I would never be any better until I had an operation.
1 was so bad I could hardly walk across the floor and could not do a thing.
My sister-in-law induced me to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
and it certainly has helped me wonderfully. I keep house and do my work
and have a small child. 1 have recommended Vegetable Compound to a num-
ber of my friends and you may publish my testimonial. "—Mrs. H. R. Sharon,
Apple Tree Point Farm, Burlington, Vt
In hospitals are many women whoare there for surgical operations,and there
is nothing a woman dreads more than the thought of an operation^ and the
long weary months of recovery and restoration to strength if it is successful.
It is very true that female troubles may through neglect reach a stage
where an operation is the only resource, but most of the commoner ailmenta
of women are not the surgical ones : they are not caused by serious displace-
ments, tumors or growths, although the symptoms may appear the same.
When disturbing ailments first appear take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound to relieve the present distress and prevent more serious troubles.
In fact, many letters have been received from women who have been restored
to health by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound after operations hava
been advised by attending physicians.

liar to Women" will be sent to you free upon request. Write

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cuied
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
Catarrhal Deafness requires constitu-
tional treatment. HALL'S CATARKH
MEDICINE is a constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an In-
flamed condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entire-
ly closed, Deafness Is the result. Unless
the inflammation can be reduced, your
hearing may be destroyed forever.
HALL'S CATARRH MEDICINE acts
through the blood on the mucous sur-
faces of the system, thus reducing the in-
flammation and restoring normal condi-
tions.
