Conditions in Saxony That Call Loudly
for Reform.
The cry of the children still goes
ay in Germany. The chamber oS
commerce in Plauen has issued a re-
markable report.
In Saxony, it states, of 604,600
school children, no fewer than 137,831,
or 23 per cent, are employed in trade.
More than half of these children—
namely, 74,508—are employed in the
textile industry.
In some industries even children
under 10 years of age are employed,
the majority of whom are puny, deli-
cate, little old men and women, sitting
all day in a vitiated atmosphere for
a few pence, and never knowing what
it is to play and be children.
They do not obtain proper food, for
their parents are so poor that they
can only afford to give them bread
and potatoes. A petition will shortly
be laid before the reichstag praying
for legislation on the matter.—London

Unless this is done the cold is almost
sure to end in the second stage of catarrh,
which is making so many lives miserable.
If Peruna was taken every time one has
a cold or cough, chronic catarrh would
be practically an unknown disease.

The first stage of catarrh is what is
rommonly known as “catching c^’i.” It
nay be in the head, nose, throat or lungs.
Its beginning is sometimes so severe as
:o cause a chill and considerable fever, or
it may be so slight as to not hinder a person
:rom his usual business. In perhaps a
majority of cases little or no attention is
Daid to’the first stage of catarrh, and hence
*t is that nearly one-half .of the people have
:hronic catarrh in some form.
To neglect a cold is to invite chronic
jatarrh. As soon as any one discovers

forth, of St. Joseph, Mich, tells how she
was cured of falling of the womb and
its accompanying pains and misery by
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
“Dear Mrs. Pinktiam:— Life looks dark indeed when a woman
feels that her strength is fading away and she has no hopes of ever
being restored. Such was my feeling a few months ago when I was
advised that my poor health was caused by prolapsus or falling of the
womb. The words sounded like a knell to me, I felt that my sun had
set; but Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound came to me as
an elixir of life; it restored the lost forces and built me up until my
good health returned to me. For four months I took the medicine
daily and each dose added health and strength. I am so thankful for
the- help I obtained through its use.”—Mrs. Florence Danforto,
1007 Miles Ave., St. Joseph, Mich.
A medicine that lias restored so many women to health and
can produce proof of tlie fact must be regarded with respect. This
is the record of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, which
cannot be equalled by any other medicine tlie world has ever pro-
duced. Here is another case: —
“ Dear Mrs. Pinkiiam : — For years I was
jflililpL troubled with falling of the womb, irregular
and painful menstruation, leucorrhcea, bearing-
down pains, backache, headache, dizzy and
fainting spells, and stomach trouble.

Rev. Adrian Hofmeyr of Pretoria,

is about to make a lecture tour of
the larger cities in this country. He
was the first prisoner taken for po-
litical reasons in the Boer war. In
1900 he traveled through Great Brit-
ain pleading as a Dutch Afrikander
for clemency and generosity to the
Boers when the war ended. It was
largely because of Mr. Hofmeyr’s rep-
resentations that the British govern-
ment took immediate steps to give the
south African farmers aid and to save
the farms for them.
