Mrs. Baker So Weak—Could
Not Do Her Work—Found
Relief In Novel Way.
Adrian, Mich. — " I suffered terribly
with female weakness anil backache and
got so weak that I
could hardly do ray
work. When I
washed my dishes I
had to sit down and
when I would sweep
the floor I would get
bo weak that I would
have to get a drink
every few minutes,
and before I did my
dusting 1 would have
to lie down. I got
so poorly that my folks thought I was
going into consumption. One day I
found a piece of paper blowing around
the yard and I picked it up and read it.
It said ‘Saved from the Grave,’ and
told what Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegeta
ble Compound has done for women. I
showed it to my husband and he said,
• Why don’t you try it ? ’ So I did, and
after I had taken two bottles I felt
better and I said to my husband, ‘I don’t
need any more,’ and he said ‘You had
better take it a little longer anyway.’
So I took it for three months and got
well and strong. ” — Mrs. Alonzo E.
Baker, 9 Tecumseh St., Adrian, Mich.
Not "Well Enough to Work.
In these words is hidden the tragedy
of many a woman, housekeeper or wage
earner who supports herself and is often
helping to support a family, on meagre
wages. Whether in house, office, fac
tory, shop, store or kitchen, woman
should remember that there is one tried
and true remedy for the ills to which all
women are prone, and that is Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. It
promotes that vigor which makes work
easy. The Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine

Letter
;; But There Was a Clew
In It
By EVERETT P. CLARKE
Wnlter Borland nt twenty-two was n
very ngreenble chap, ne wns not espe
cially handsome, and since he paid
very little attention to girls the girls
paid very little attention to him. Such
being the ease, he had a very poor oplu-
Ion of his powers of charming the fair
sex. True, he thought little about the
matter; lie simply regarded himself as
not a ladles’ man.
One day the postman handed Walter
a letter that brought the surprise ol
his life. It was postmarked and dated
at the city of Cincinnati and signed by
one of whom he had never heard, nt
least not by the name given. The writ
er said that she was a girl nineteen
years old. She had mot him and had
fallen In love with him. She would
not be so unmaidenly ns to reveal her
Identity, but she Just couldn’t help let
ting him know that there was a girl
who loved him and would never love
any one else.
There would be no chance of his dis
covering who she was because she had
taken every pains to prevent bis doing
so. Without this she would he Inex
cusable in revealing her love for him.
Possibly he might meet her again. If
so he would be at liberty to woo her,
If, Indeed, he felt drawn to her, with
out knowing that he had already made
a conquest
Now, If Walter Borland were con
scious of being a heart smasher, doubt
less he would not have been seriously
affected by this letter. As it was, he
was very much moved by it. What
any girl saw in him to enuse her to
give him her heart without even the
slightest courtship—for he had never
preferred any one girl to others—he
couldn’t imagine. His Judgment told
him that some one was putting up a
Job on him, but bis amour propre said
that It hoped the letter was genuine.
Then he fell to thinking out the prob
lem as to wbo that lass might be. He
had never lived in Cincinnati and, so
far as he remembered, had never met
a girl who was a resident of that city.
Quite likely she had posted the letter
while there temporarily or had Bent It
there to be posted. It seemed to him
that she had been successful In her In
tention to conceal her identity, for he
could see ns possible clew. And yet it
would be Just like a girl to give a clew
—that Is. a clew that It would be next
to Impossible for him to hit upon.
He thought of all the girls he had
ever known, trying to call up some
mark of favor shown him by any one
of the number. Not a girl of Ills ac
quaintance had ever Indicated that she
coveted his attentions.
All living beings are hunters, and
man Is the chief hunter of them all,
though man’s weapons are either Intel
lectual or the result of lutellectual ac
tion. Borland found himself facing a
problem. A girl had confessed that she
loved him, and he could never be satis
fied until he had found her. His first
move wns to study the girls of his ac
quaintance. When he met one of them
he would scrutinize her countenance
with a view to seeing some telltale ex
pression In It. If lie failed to meet
any one of them casually he called
upon her. Not one received him with
the slightest sign of embarrassment.
Being completely blocked in Ills ef
forts, he consulted his chum. Bob Car
ter, a young man who was supposed
to understand women. Carter put him
through an examination with a view
to bringing out some Indication that
had been shown by one of his girl ac
quaintances. Borland mentioned a
girl who had taken umbrage at some
unintended slight he hnd given her.
Carter pounced upon the lady as the
writer of the letter. When a girl takes
offense at a man's treatment of her It
Indicates that she Is sensitive to his
treatment But unfortunately this
young lady was not less than twenty-
one years old. whereas the writer hnd
described herself ns nineteen. Never
theless Borland applied certain tests,
all of which failed to show any unusu
al Interest In him.
Having failed to get nny available
counsel from a man, the young hunts
man or, rather, the young detective—
for this Is a detective story without
the pale of criminality—concluded to
try a woman. He consulted his friend
Mrs. Cheltenham, a bride of three
months.
"No girl." said the lady, ‘‘would write
such a confession to a man without
placing It within the bounds of possi
bility that he should discover her
identity. She has given a clew, but If
you discover It you will still be a long
way from discovering the girk I
would advise you to examine her let
ter with a microscope. If that falls
try chemicals. She may be a college
girl up In chemistry.”
It was evening whan Borland receiv
ed this advice, and. going to his home,
be took out the letter, procured a hand
glass of strong magnifying power and,
taking both to a gas Jet, brought the
glass to bear on the letter. In order to
get the best light he held the paper
within a few inches of the flame.
Brvwnlsb letters came out written
across the face of the letter, ‘‘Month
of roses, 12—’12.”
Borland would have been very stupid

Bottled by CHERO-COLA BOTTLING CO. Newnan, Ga
as June J2, 1912. Mrs. Cheltenham
had hit the nail squnrely on the head.
“Get a woman to catch a woman.”
said Borland. “But she wns also right
In predicting that If 1 found a clew in
the letter I would still be fnr from the
girl. However, whoever she Is, she Is
educated or she would not have known
thnt citric acid becomes brown when
heated. June 12, 1912— where was 1
on that day? It was nearly a year ago.
and 1 doubt tf 1 can determine Just
where I was.”
But Borland sat himself down to
think, and It wns not long liefore be
remembered that on .iune, 1912, he at
tended the graduating exercises of a
women’s college, where he hnd been In
troduced to more than a dozeu young
ladles and hnd seen and Ijpon seen by
several hundred more. Surely his friend
Mrs. Cheltenham must have the pow
er of divining the humnn female mind,
for he was not only fnr from discov-
Ing the writer of the letter, but ninong
so many It would be impossible to pick
out the culprit.
The graduating exercise* of the wom
en’s college were approaching, and
Borland considered the expediency of
going there to look for a needle In a
haystack. He called upon the Indy
wbo hnd put him on the track and told
her that he now believed the letter to
be a college prank and In thnt event
he would take no further interest In It.
His counselor replied that the age of
the writer. If given correctly, rather
Indicated thnt she belonged to ooe of
the lower classes or wns not a college
girl at all, since girls did not usually
enter college before they were eight
een. Mrs. Cheltenham was rather In
clined to believe that the writer of the
letter was a visitor to the college, be
cause she would not be likely to put
him in possession of her location.
Borland attended the commencement
exercises of the women’s college, but
he might as well have gone to Green
land for all the benefit his visit was to
his search, and when he returned to Ills
home he felt that If he ever found the
letter writer It would be because she
would give him au additional clew.
His adviser told him that the girl hnd
doubtless been at the college com
mencement and had seen him there.
She therefore knew Hint he wns hunt
ing her. Better drop the matter. The
girl doubtless was observing him, and
If she saw that lie find given up the
chase she would very likely do some
thing to urge him on.
Borland adopted the Fabian policy;
but, as for not thinking about the mat
ter, that wns impossible. Toward the
end of August he went into the coun
try with his friend Carter to spend
his vacatiou canoeing. One evening he
went with Carter to a summer hotel
for supper. While passing through the
hall to the dining room they passed
several young ladles. When they were
seated at the table Carter said.
"Walter. I've found your girl!”
“Which? When? Where?” was the
hurried response.
“Corning through the hall. One of
the girls we met, the moment she saw
you, started. Then the color all went
out of her face and came buck red as
a Jack rose.”
"Pretty or homely?"
“A peach."
“Good! I must go and find her.”
He was rising from his seat, but
Carter held him down.
"Sit still. I)o you want to spoil your
romance? ICat your supper and keep
cool, i’our gume Is to preteud not to
recognize the girl ns the writer of the
letter. Make her acquaintance, get
spoons with her and at the proper time
tell her you’re going to turn turtle In
your canoe because you're dying of love
for her uud have uo hope of winning
her.”
“Is that the way It's done?”
"Of course It Is. It you ever let her
know that you ure oa to her secret
she’ll fieo from you as from the wrath
to come."
“By Jove, Bob, where did you learn
so much about women?"
“Any fool would know that”
“I’ve no doubt you’re right. In due
time get an Introduction to her and In
troduce me.”
"It won’t do to hurry.”
"But nre you sure she's the girl?"
“She must be. No girl at meeting a
man would start and go red and
white bv turns unless there was some
