LITERAL OBEDIENCE.
The spick-and-span young officer,
who calmly takes command ovor vet
erans grown “gray in battle and vic
tory ” is sometimes au amusing person,
particularly If a Reuse of his own Im
portance Is unduly developed.
Quite recently, says the Youth's
Companion, word was received In var
ious South Afrlcun camps that on such
and such a morning every man In Of
ficer — 1! s army muat change his
shirt.
The Imperial Light Horse, who
formed part of tho command, liRd only
one shirt apiece, and that was on their
backs. So a messenger was despat :h-
ed to explain. But the lionornblo and
gallant onicer, fresh from Sandhurst,
know his business:
“If the men of the Imperial Light
Horse have not got a second shirt,”
said he, firmly, “let them chango shirts
with each other. My orders are Im
perative.”
Quite Essential.

Tho ordinary every-day life of most of our women is a
ceaseless treadmill of wort.
How much harder the daily tasks become when some
derangement of tbo female organs makes every movement
painful and keeps tho nervous system all unstrung I
One day she is wretched and utterly miserable; in a day
or two she is better and laughs at her fears, thinking there
is nothing much tho matter after all; but before night the
deadly backache reappears, the limbs tremble, the lips twitch
—it seems as though all tho imps of Satan were clutching
her vitals; she goos to pieces and is flat on her back.
No woman ought to arrive at this terrible state of
misery, because these symptoms are a sure forerunner of
womb troubles. She must remember that Lydia E. Pink-
ham’s Vegetable Compound is almost an infallible cure
for all female ills, such as irregularity of periods, which cause
weak stomach, sick headache, etc., displacements and in
flammation of tho womb, or any of the multitudes of ill
nesses which beset the female organism.
Mrs. Gooden wrote to Mrs.PInkham when oho
was In great trouble. Her letter tells the resuH*
41 Deah Mbs. Pinkiiam:—I am very grateful to you for your kindness
and the interest you have taken in mo, ana truly believe that your medicines
and advico are worth more to a woman than all tho
doctors in the world. My troubles began with inflam
mation and hemorrhages from the kidneys, then
inflammation, congestion and falling of the womb,
and inflammation of the ovaries. I underwent local
treatment every day for some time; then, after nearly
two months, the doctor gave me permission to go
back to work. I went back, but in less than a week
was compelled to give up and go to bed. On break
ing down the second time, I decided to let doctors
ana medicines alone and try your remedies. Before
the first bottle was gone I felt the effects of it.
Three bottles of Lydia E. Pink ham’s Vegetable
Compound and a packago of Sanative Wash did
me more good than all the doctors' treatments and
medicine. I have gained twelve pounds during tho
lost two months and am better in every way. Thanking you for your
kind advice and attention, I remain. Yours gratefully;

WOES OF WORKERS.
Tho American roan or woman is industrious. Our loisure class is small,
our working world very largo. Many of our leading citizens of great wealth
are hard workers. Our laboring classes
aro found in liordB nnd hordes in tho
“hlvesof industry.” What is all this work
for? In most cases it is for dally bread,
In many for maintenance of others. Great
numbers also work to acquire wealth.
Somo for great commercial prominence.
Some to pveservo intact a splendid Inheri
tance. Necessity, generosity and ambition
arc tho inspiration of all classes of* indus
try, and tho object of every one falls to tho
ground when ill-health attacks him.
Maintaining health is tho most vital
thing in the world for workers of every
olass, and tho usefulness of Dr. Greene’s
Ncrvura blood and nerve remedy, as n
strengthonor of tho constitutional and
vital powers, is beyond all question. This
great remedy enters into partnership
with Nature and helps human beings do
their work without giving up to prema
ture decay. The strain of work is on tho
minds of some,' on tho bodies of others,
but tho nourishing of either, or both, Is
In the nerves and blood. Ncrvura aots
directly on the fountains of health and
its strengthening power is wonderful.
Dr. Greene’s
NERVURA
for the Blood and Nerves,
What docs tho worker do when some chronlo
trouble manifests itself ? He takes some stimulant or
something which is designed for temporary effect, and
simply weakens his already overworked system, now
different from this is the work of Ncrvurai How
beautiful its support to tho natural powersl With
out shock of any kind its purely vegetable elements
seek out tho weak spots and build them up. Imme
diately tho circulation of the blood improves and tho sluggish
elements are expelled. Tho nerves arc quieted, the quality of
the blood is enriched and tho new and strengthening tide communicates itself
to every muscle of the body.
Mr. JOHN D. SMITH, Electrician for the Thomson-Houston
Electric Co., of Lynn, Mass., says:
“ When a man has boon sick and is cured, it is his duty to tell others about it, that they.
my stomach. I was in a terrible condition, and was much alarmed.
“ I wont to doctors, but they did mo no good. Learning of tho wondorful good done by
Pr. Greene's Norvura blood ana nerve remedy, I determined to try it. It cured mo com
pletely of all my complaints. I eat heartily and sleep well, thanks to this splendid medicine.
I believe it to bo the best remedy in existence.”

GREEN NOT RESTFUL.
It seems a* though cherished no
tion* are no sooner on an apparently
firm foundation than somo inconsid
erate iconoclast comes along and
throw* them down. People have for
many year* supposed that the color
green waa restful to human eyes, and
have been referred to the green grnss
and green foliage that nature has been
so prodigal with for the benefit of
wearied vision.
Now, according to a German profes
sor of Berlin, nature wasn’t thinking
of human eyes when she made her
profuse verdant display, and that her
color scheme was carried out absolute
ly regardless of the visual needs of
humanity. He say* that green does not
protect tho eye, and be denies that it
hns any beneficial effect whatever.
He declares that green paper, green
shades, green glasses, green decora
tions and green umbrellas are all a
mistake, and that by Increasing tho
green light we are simply provoking a
nervous disturbance.
He says that each of the colors tires
a different set of nerves of vision, and,
therefore, looking at one particular
color saves one set of nerves at the
expense of another. The best method,
he says, Is to dim all of tho rays of
light by smoked or gray glasses, which
rest all of tho optic nerves.
HIS MOTHER WAS "ON TO” HIM.
“"An old woman, plainly dressed, went
Into the men’s hat department of a big
store the other dny and said to a
salesman: “Here is $2. My son will
come here tomorrow, and you will
please fit him out with a $2 hat His
name Is so-and-so.” The salesman
asked why the purchase of the hat was
to be made in this strange way, and
the old woman answered; “If I should
give my son the money he would
spend It for rum and got no bat.” Then
she departed, and the next day the son
appeared. He was a tough man of 88
or 40. He gave his name, and then he
said: “Say, how much did de old lady
give ye.fer de sky-piece?” “Two dol
lars,” the salesman answered. “Ghee,
Is dat all? Say, she’s glttln’ mean In
her old age, ain’t she? Well, trot out
a dollar sky-piece, an* gimme de
change, see.” The salesman would not
do that, however, and the promising
son had to take a $2 hat The first
one that was shown to him suited. He
did net appear to be particular. He
clapped the new hat down over Ida
ears, and swaggered out with ths re
mark: “You kin keep de old one, cul
ly.”—Philadelphia Record.
