Women who aro well often ask "Ar«
the letters which the Lydia E. Pinkham
Medicine Co. are continually publishing,
genuine?” ’ “Are.they truthful?”
" Why do women write such letters? ”
In answer we say that never have wo
published a fictitious letter or name.
Never, knowingly, have we published
an untruthful letter, prone without the
full and written consent of the woman
who wrote it
The reason that thousands ot women
from all ports of the country write such
grateful letters to tho Lydia E. i’ink-
ham Medicine Co. is that Lydia E. Pink-
ham’s Vegetable Compound has brought
health and happiness into their lives,
once burdened with pain and suffering.^
It has relieved women from some of
the worst forms of female ills, from dis-
placements inflammation, ulceration,
irregularities, nervousness, weakness,
stomach troubles and from the blues.
It is impossible for any woman who
Is well and who
has never suffered
to realize how these
poor, suffering wo-
men £eel when re-
stored to health;
their keen desire to
help other women
who are suffering as 0
they did.
The average lazy man gets along so
well in Ills old world Hint he encour-
ages Idleness. In others.

Oklahoma City.—A call for between
700 and 800 recruits, the number
necessary to bring the First regiment
of the Oklahoma National Guard up to
normal maximum strength, was issued
by Governor Williams as commander-
in-chief of the guard.
Tlie organization of the Second reg-
iment of Oklahoma guards, which has
been urged since the issuance of the
mobilization order, will not likely to
be permitted by the war department
until the present regiment is recruited
to full strength, according to the gov-
ernor.
He points out that those desiring to
enter the Second regiment, can lay the
predicate fop such an organization by
assisting in bringing the present regi-
ment up tp the strengtti required by
the war department.
Following is the governor’s call:
“The First regiment of Oklahoma
National Guard has .now mobilized at
Fort Sill, Okla., with all of its units
organized or in process of organiza-
tion, but it is necessary to raise be-
tween 700 and S00 recruits in order t.«
get the regiment up to its normal max-
imum strength. I appeal to the citi-
zenship of the state to aid and help
facilitate this recruiting.
“It is likely that the war depart-
ment will not permit the organization
of a second regiment until this regi-
ment Is recruited to its normal maxi-
mum strength and those who desire to
participate in the organization of a
second regiment can lay the predicate
for such organization by joining hands
and working to organize the First reg-
iment to the desired strength.
“Under tlie direction from the. war
department -all of the national guard
recruiting officers are called in. Those
desiring to join the Oklahoma National
Guards as recruits should report to
one of the following federal recruiting
stations, or at Fort Sill: Chickasha,
