I A man seeking to purchase a new
hat visited a haberdashery shop the
other day with the proprietor of which
he was on very intimate terms. After
trying on several of the latest fashions
he casually inquired the price of the
hat. He was informed that it was
sold at $3.
"isn't that rather steep?" remarked
the customer. "Isn't it possible for
you to make a reduction for me? I
have been dealing With you for the
past ten years, and it seems to me
that the price is a trifle high."
"It is impossible for me to lower my
price," curtly replied the proprietor
"Now, my dear man," the other
again asked, "can't you make some
concessions for an old friend?"
"Because of our friendship you want
me to make a reduction," said the
owner, dismissing the subject. "Don't
you know that I depend upon the sup-
port of my friends, because my ene-
mies don't patronize me?"

Finger Prints Identify.
Talking of the finger print system
for the identification of criminals, a
Scotland Yard detective remarked the
other day that, although no system is
infallible, the police, given a finger
print of a man who has been through
their bands, will tell you who he is in
nine hundred and ninety-nine cases
out of a thousand. Furthermore, it
is a matter of Indifference to the Kng-
lish police by which finger or thumb
'he print is made; it can be easily
traced. It was pointed out that in
France the police depend to a great
extent on physical measurement for
identification, but while measure-
ments are always taken by Scotland
^ ard, they are only regarded as of
secondary importance.

FRIENDLY TIP.
Restored Hope and Confidence.
After several years of indigestion
and Us attendant evil influence on the
mind, it is not very surprising that
one finally loses faith in things gen-
erally. "
A N. Y. woman writes an interesting
letter. She says:
"Three years ago I suffered from an
attack of peritonitis which left me in
a most miserable condition. For over
two years I suffered from nervousness
weak heart, shortness of breath, could
not sleep, etc.
"My appetite was ravenous but I
felt starved all the time. I had plenty
of food but it did not nourish me be-
cause of intestinal indigestion. Medi-
cal treatment did not seem to help. I
got discouraged, stopped medicine and
did not care much whether I lived or
died.
One day a friend asked me why 1
didn't try Grape-Nuts food, stop drink-
ing coffee and use Postum. I had lost
faith In everything, but to please my
friend I began to use both and soon
became very fond of them.
"It wasn't long before I got some
strength, felt a decided change in my
system, hope sprang up in my heart
and slowly but surely I got better I
could sleep very well, the constant
craving for food ceased and I have
better health now than before the at-
tack of peritonitis.
"My husband and I are still using
Grape-Nuts and Postum."

of the time. Lydia

An Honest Dependable Medicine
It must be admitted by every fair-
minded, intelligent person, that a medi-
cine could not live and grow in popularity
for nearly forty years, and to-day hold
a record for thousands upon thousands
of actual cures, as has Lydia E. Pink-
ham's Vegetable Compound, without
possessing great virtue and actual
worth. Such medicines must be looked
upon and termed both standard and
dependable by every thinking person.
If you have the slightest doubt
that Lydia K. Pinkham's Vegeta-
ble Compound will help you, write
to Lydia E.I'ink ham IVIedieine Co.
(confidential) Lynn, Mass.,for ad-
vice. Your letter will be opened,
read and answered by a woman,
and held in strict confidence.
