Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade says: Although the shortest month of the year was further curtailed by two holidays and handicapped by the most severe storms ot the winter, industrial and trade results were most satisfactory.

ANOTHER GRAND REPORT FROM HIS MAJESTY’S DOCKYARD. AT PORTSMOUTH, ENGLAND. Wh.r* Upwards ot 10.000 Mea An Coa•tautly KtnjtloyeU. Sometime ago the Portsmouth Time* and Naval Gazette published a most thrilling andsremarkeble experience ot the wife of Mr. Frederick Payne, himself connected with the Portsmouth Dockyard tor many yean. The report produced a great scums tion, not only in Portsmouth, but throughout the country, being considered ft sufficient importance for reproduction and ed 1 tor ml comment by the leading Metropolitan and Provincial Press of England, as •bowing the marvelous powers which 6t.

We hart now further evidence of its in trios ic value aa a Pain Conqueror. Our readers will do well to follow the in tell i gent and highly interesting detail* as given in Mrs Rabbets' own words: To the Proprietors St. Jacobs Oil: Gentlemen—My husband, who is a ship wright in Hia Majesty's Dockyard, met with an accident to hi* ankle 1 spraining both so badly tl

A few days after the accident I had a book left at .the door teUing about St. Jacobs 03, *0 I procured a bottle from out chemist, Mr. Arthur Creswell, 370 Com mercial Road. I began Jacob* Oil, and you may guess mj surprise, when, in about another week from that date, my husband could not stand, but could even walk about in three weeks from the time I first used the Oil my husband was back at work, and everybody talking about hu wonderful recovery. This is not all. See ing what St. Jacobs 03 could do gave me faith in your Vogeler's Curative Compound also favourably mentioned in the book left at my house. I determined to try the compound on my little girl, who was suf fering from a dreadful skin disease, th« treatment of which has cost me large tumi of money in going from one doctor to another with ber all to no purpose. She has taken two bottle* of Vogeler’s Curative Compound, and one would nohardly take ber for th^aame child, he skin baa got such a ngre healthy colon after the tallow look the hat always had.

Mrs. L. A. Harris, a Prominent Member of a Chicago Woman’s Political Club, tells how Ovarian Troubles may be Cured without a Surgical Operation. She says: " Doctors have a perfect craze for operations. The minute there is any trouble, nothing but an operation will do them; one hundred dollars and costs, and included in the costs arc pain, and agony, and often death. “ I suffered for eight years with ovarian troubles ; spent huhdredg of dollars for relief, until two doctors agreed that an operation was my only chance of life. My sister had been using Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound fbr her troubles, and been cured, and she strongly urged me to let the doctors go and try the Compound. I did so' as a last resort; used it faithfully with the Sanative Wash for five months, and was rejoiced to find that my troubles were over and my health restored. If women would only try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound first, fewer surgical operations would occur.”—Mrs. L. A. Harris, 278 East 31st St., Chicago, 111. •6000 FORFEIT IF THE ABOVE LETTER IS NOT GENUINE.
