Bailey, of Atlanta,

inflammation of the ovaries, and escaped
the surgeon’s knife, by the use of
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.
The universal indications of the approach of woman's great enemy, inflam*

a souse of tenderness and beat low down in the side, with occasional
shooting pains. On examination it may be found thAt the region of pain will

“Deak Mbs. Pinkiiah:—I wish to express my gratitude for the
restored health and happiness I.y.1 la 1'. Pink hum's Vegetable Com

“I had suffered for tlireo years with terrible pains at the time of
menstruation, and did not know what the tnmhlo was until the doctor
pronounced it influninintlon of the ovaries, and promised oil operation.
“ 1 felt so weak and sick that I felt sure that I could not survive the
ordeal, and so I told him that I would not undergo it. The following
week I read an advertisement in the mjior of your Vegetable Comisnind
In such ail emergency, and bo I decided to try it. Great was my joy to
find that I actually improved after taking two 1 Kittles, so I kept taking
it for ten weeks, and at thoeml of that time I was cured. I bud gained
eighteen pounds and was in excellent health, and an. now.

A MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE.
.Six years ago the Britiah schoon
er Ethel mysteriously disappeared
en route from Bombay to Port Said.
Iler o wners, Bark foot & Co. of the
latter port, gave her up for lost, and
since that time until last month
her fate remained a mystery to the
world.
It was an empty and tightly cork
ed wine bottle that brought the sto
-tv of her fate and that of Captain
'Lee and his crew to land. The bot’
tie was discovered by Captain Lom
bard on the beach of island of
Fukave, situated in the soul', seas,
and the note it contained reads
follows:
“Will the finder of this inform
Messrs. Barkfoot & Co. of Port Said
that their schooner Ethtf founder
ed about 1,000 miles from Bombay?
This note is written by the sole sur
vivors, Captain I^ee and Seaman
Thomas, who are in their last hopes
Signed, J. T. Lee, Jan. 26 or 27,

Curious Properties of Radium.
The properties of radium ure ex
tremely curious. This body emits
with great intensity all of the dif
ferent rays that are produced in a
vacuum tube. The radiation, meas
ured by means of an electroscope, is
at least a million times more power
ful than t. at from an equal quan
tity of ura.iium. A charged elec
troscope placed at a distance of sev
eral meters can be discharged by a
few centigrams of a radium salt.
One can also discliarge an electro
scope through a screen of glass or
lead five or six centimeters thick.
Photographic plates placed in the
vicinity of radium are almost in
stantly afTected if no screen inter
cepts the rays. With screens the
action is slower, but it still takes
place through very thick ones if the
exposure is sufficiently long. Radi
um can therefore be used in the pro
duction of radiographs.—Mine. Cu

AFFLICTED BY BLOOD POISON
CURED BY
FOERG’S REMEDY
Physicians marvel and praise.
8ufferers wonder and rejoice.
A remarkable remedy for blood poison
Is an absolute, unfailing remedy for Blood Poison entitled to rank among the
Great Discoveries of the Age ?
We say no, unless it is a complete and perfect remedy, effecting a cure In every
eatv of bleed poisoning, whether constitutional or acquired. We did not aim at mere
relief. There are other means of relief. We want to provide a permanent cure.
There is no other means.
In Foerg's Remedy, have we a certain permanent cure ? Physicians say we have,
sufferers say we have. We have a countless mass of letters from them. They speak of
many cures, but not of & single failure. Read this letter, one of an endless number:
“ I have used *lx bottles of Foerg's Remedy for a case of blood disease of Ion* stand in*. I
*a?e most everythin* recommended a trial, but without success, and by luck heard of Foerg’a
Remedy, so I decided to *ive it a trial, which I did. and I am *iad to say It completely cured
me. I am an acrobat, and recommended it to many of my profession, and bear of *ood revolts
from ail who take my advice. Wish you success and hoi>e Foerg's Remedy will be standard
amonxst men of the future."
The writer of this letter is a well known athlete, whose name we withhold
because all eorrsspondsncu with our patrons Is strictly confidential. We stake our com
mercial honor and standing on the statement that the letter is here faithfully reproduced.
For many years we worked upon this problem. Other diseases, we reasoned, are
curable. Why not this one? And so we continued our work until our efforts found
tne highest success, when we were ready to guarantao a cure In avary case.
Foerg's Remedy is for sale at your druggist's, or by us upon receipt of $1 for
one bottle or >.» for six bottles.

Sleeping Car Porkers.
E. H. Harriman intends to sub
stitute white porters for negroes on
sleeping and parlor ears on the Un
ion Pacific road. This change is to
he made gradually and is of an ex
? erimental character. The Union
’acific passenger department has
received complaints for nearly a year
that negro porters were impudent
and inattentive to their duties ex
cept when in receipt of liberal tips.
In fact, in some instances aggressive
insistence upon tips has become a
crying nuisance. Orders have gone
out on some divisions of the Union
Pacific system to dispense with ne
gro porters and employ in their
stead white men at an advance oi
$12.50 per month in wages. The
reason assigned is “for the good of
the service.” If white porters prove
effective and acceptable the change
will probably be made general on all
Harriman transcontinental lines.
Hew Bahia* Cry Whan Thay Ara III.
Mothers are often worried us tc
what ths cries of their infants mean
when the}' stem to be sick or in pain
and frequently arc apt to diagnose
the caso wrongfully. As a mutter
of fact, when an infant is danger
ously ill it seldom cries, so that
when it begins to cry a great deal
during a severe illness it is usually
sign of amendment.
When a ..child suffers from inflam
mation of the lungs, it moans, lmt
rarely cries. When suffering from
bronchitis, the erv is gruff and rat
tling. When suffering from croup,
the cry is sharp and fretful. When
liungrv, it is fretful and wailing.

Ironing Shoos.
Shoes of nearly every description
are ironed with a hot or warm iron.
A short time ago it would have been
thought peculiar to iron men’s shoes
l with a warm iron instead of treeir;
il.em, but it is being done with tl- *
bo--1 results in some factories. Tiis i
! >es not include wax or other greasy

Tho Hippopotamus. ^
It seems that the hippopotamus
i? > be exterminated. It is hardly,
probable that the hippopotamus will
enjoy thi- bur it will be a good
thing for mankind, according to the
London Globe. The intelligent an
imal constantly attaeks boats, fields
and gardens, and “what he does not
eat,” says an authority, “he sits ou.”
Now he is himself to be sat on. We
trust that those in charge of the
campaign will remember Uie advice
of one of our foremost naturalists
and “shoot the hippopotamus with
bullets ma.L- of platinum,” for if
they use the other kind his hide will
surely flatten ’em.
For Falling Hair.
Kerosene is good for the hair and
scalp and is not so greasy as vase
line, being more quickly absorbed.
Brush the hair well.before using
and rub on the scalp with the finger
tips. Plain gin is also a good scalp
tonic. While the hair is in n weak
ened condition ii shi-uid not be
brushed hard, c-trled with hot irons
or elaborately dre sed. Try to give
it a rest. Shampoo it only once in
six weeks until it is in better condi
tion. Uf? shell hairpins and be I
‘-artful that your hatpins do not
scratch the :. nip and tear the hair.
