The demand for sites for club houses has becomo so pronounced that a whole section of the Schenley Farms Company's property in Oakland has been set apart for such purposes. The University club has a site fronting opposite the Eastern view of the Memorial hall site and the Knights of Columbus have closed a deal for a site fronting opposite tho western view of the Memorial hall building. Two other club organisations are completing transactions whereby they will acquire sites in that immediate vicinity.

The property, two squares west of the Grant boulevard, and between Fifth avenue and Bayard street, will be held for sites for similar organizations. The deal for the Knights of Columbus site was made through E. C. Brainerd. The lot fronts 75 feet in Bayard street at the corner of Natalie avene, and the consideration was $16,200.

The 60 feet nearest the corner were sold for $220 a front foot, and as that was not large enough the adjoining 15 feet were sold at the rate of $200 a front foot. The buyers were the Pittsburgh and Duquesne councils of the Knightn of Columbus, but the club will be a rlace to entertain all members of the order of this city, as well as visitors.

Increasing Working Force. Railroads in the Pittsburgh district are beginning to increase the force of workmen at the repair shops and in the yards.

Usually the additional workmen are not placed on the payroll until the latter part of October, but the repair work this fall Is unusually heavy and the officials are putting forth all efforts to have the roll ing stock in first-class condition to handle the increased freight traffic when the winter rush begins. Officials of the Baltimore Ohio, the Pittsburgh Lake Erie and the Pennsylvania, said yester A Few Notes on Harness day that the number of men employed in the yards and repair shops this summer Good News For the Travelers was much larger than during the sum mer months in the last several years.

My backached nreadfullyallthetime, and I suffered so with that bearing-down feeling I could hardly walk across the room. Idid not get any better, so decided to stop doctoring with my physician and take Lydia E.

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and I am thankful to say it has entirely cured me. 1 do all my own work, have no more backache and all tho bad symptoms have disappeared. I cannot praise your medicine enough, and would advise all women suffering with kidney trouble to try it. Mrs. J.

W. Lang, of 626 Third Avenue, New York, writes Dear Mrs. Pinkham: I have been a great sufferer with kidney trouble. My back ached all the time and I was discouraged. I heard that Lydia E.

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound would cure kidney disease, and I began to take it and it has cured me when everything else had failed. 1 have recommended it to lots of people and they all praise it very highly. Mr. Piakliam'a Standing Invitation. Women suffering from kidney trouble, or any form of female weakness, are invited to promptly communicate with Mrs.

Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. The present Mrs. Pinkham is the daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham, her assistant before her decease, and for twenty-five years since her advice has been freely given to sick women. Out of the great volume of ex- Jerience which she has to draw from, is more than likely she has the very knowledge that will help your case.

Her advice is free and always helpful. Of all the diseases known, with which women are afflicted, chronic kidney disease is the most fatal. In fact, unless early and correct treatment is applied, the weary patient seldom survives. Being- fully aware of this, Lydia E. Pinkham, early in her career, gave exhausive study to the subject, and in producing- her great remedy for woman's ills Lydia E.

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound was careful to see that it contained the correct combination of herbs which was sure to control that fatal disease, woman's kidney troubles. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is the only one especially prepared for women, and thousands have been cured of serious kidney derangements by it. Derangements of the feminine organs quickly affect the kidneys, and when a woman has such symptoms as pain or weight in the loins, backache, bearing-down pains, scalding or burning sensations or deposits in the urine, unusual thirst, swelling of hands and feet, swelling under the eyes or sharp pains in the back, running through the groin, she may infer that her kidneys are affected and should lose no time in combating the disease with Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, the woman's remedy for woman's ills.

The following letters show how marvelously successful it is. Mrs. Samuel Prake, of Prospect Plains, N. writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham: I cannot thank you enough for what Lydia Sizes.
