REMARKABLE
CASE of Mrs. HAM
Declares Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound
Saved Her Life
and Sanity.
Shamrock, Mo.— “I feel it my duty
to tell the public the condition of my
T health before using
your medicine. I had
falling, inflamma
tion and congestion,
female weakness,
pains in both sides,
backaches and bear
ing down pains, was
short of memory,
nervous, impatient,
passed sleepless
nights, and had
neither strength nor
energy. There was always a fear and
dread in my mind, I had cold, nervous,
weak spells, hot flashes over my body.
1 had a place in my right side that was
so sore that I could hardly bear the
■weight of my clothes. I tried medicines
and doctors, but they did me little good,
and I never expected to get out again.
1 got Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound and Blood Purifier, and I cer
tainly would have been in grave or in an
asylum if your medicines had not saved
me. But now I can work all day, sleep
well at night, eat anything I want, have
no hot flashes or weak, nervous spells.
All pains, aches, fears and dreads are
gone, my house, children and husband
are no longer neglected, as I am almost
entirely free of the bad symptoms IJiad
before taking your remedies, and all is
pleasure and happiness in my home. ”—
Mrs. Josie Ham, R. F. D. 1, Box 22,

• Ami All It Meant to Two 1
Girls
By CLARISSA MACKIE
...
I
"An express package for you, Nell,"
cried Grace Lane as she met her friend
at the door of the room they occupied
together. "Do hurry and open It. I'm
dying to see what it contains. It must
be precious," she rattled on, "because J
It's registered and stamped with all
sorts of odd foreign characters."
Nellie II1 Iyer laughed as she tossed
her hat and jacket on the bed ami car
ried the interesting package to the win- j
dow.
“It's from m.v Uncle Pnn. You re
member, Grace. I've told you about
him—how he has lived for many years
in China and is as rich as rich can be."
Miss Lane nodded her golden head
and frowned. "Yes; I’ve heard all
about your rich Uncle Daniel, and I
think he's a stingy old thing, Noll—so
there! If he wasn't lie wouldn't per
mit his niece to wither away la this
perfectly respectable lint terribly
gloomy boarding house or to continue
the nerve racking occupation of teach
ing grimy youngsters their A B C’s."
"What would you have him do,
Grace V" smiled Nell.
"I would have him send you a per
fectly enormous draft on New York, |
enough to enable you to buy a rose
bowered cottage in the country and to j
raise chickens for the market. And.
Nell, I could go and live with you j
and be your right hand man. Wouldn’t
it he great?-'
Nellie sighed profoundly.
“It would be lovely, Grace, but I'm
afraid lie won't do a thing. You see,
he quarreled with my mother years
ago because she married my father,
and we never heard a word from him
for years and years. Then mother
died, and still never a word from Un
cle Dan. After father’s death, a year
ago, you know 1 Was left entirely
alone and quite pool-—those long ill
nesses simply devoured the money—
and now it seems Uncle Dan has re
membered my birthday after all.” She
looked dreamily down into the grubby
back yard of the city block.
Grace jumped up and pulled down
the yellow window shades and lighted
the gas jet.
"Now that he has remembered, dear,
suppose you open it and see what it
contains,” she urged. "Perhaps he has
sent you the rose bowered cottage aft
er all."
Nellie untied the heavy cord that
bound the package and broke the red
seals that splotched it here uud there.
When the outer paper was removed
she found that there was layer after
layer of oiled yellow paper, and at last
there was revealed a flat box covered
with brocaded silk. The silk covered
box was tied with golden cords, and
when these were removed the lifted
cover brought to light a most wonder
ful garment of green satin, stiff with
embroidery and glistening with gold
thread.
Nellie held it up for her friend to see.
“A mandarin's coat." she said with a
little choke iu her voice. “Isn't it won
derful?”
Grace was examining the coat with
critical eyes. On the broad back of
the garment was embroidered a garden
scene, and the fronts were equally
splendid. On either flowing sleeve
there blazed a golden sun. and as she
twitched one of the sieeveB aside there
sounded a faint crackle from its vo
luminous folds.
She plunged her hand into the poek-
et-like cavity and drew out a rice paper
envelope addressed to "Miss Nellie
Hilj-er."
Nellie opened the envelope and took
out a thin sheet of rice paper. Across
the top of the sheet her uncle Dan
had written a few words: "To Nellie,
on her twenty-second birthday, from
Uncle Dan.” Then he had added: “Be
low is a fairly good sample of Chinese
poetry. Are you fond of poetry?”
Grace read the poem aloud:
"The dny is fair, like other days.
I stroll In my garden.
Through rose bordered paths I Btray,
Seeking always for happiness and peace
of mind.
At last I walk straight Into the heart of
the sun dragon—
I am swallowed up and turned Into a
glowing Jewel of delight!”
“IIow odd!" commented Grace when
she had finished. “It is without rime
or meter, and"—
“But not without meaning!” inter
rupted Nellie excitedly. "Look. Grace!"
She pointed at the outspread man
darin's coat that was on the bed be
fore them. "I've been looking at that.
I really think the poem applies to this
garden scene ou the back of the coat!"
"Fiddle-de-dee!" scoffed Miss Lane
ns she knelt beside her friend before
the green satin coat. “I never yet saw
the Chinese poem that ever appeared
to express anything save the utter
topsyturvy ness of that upside down
land.”
"Bead the poem again while I trace
out the story." urged Nellie, her finger
on the beginning of the embroidered
brown path that trickled over the
green satin garden.
Grace laughed and obeyed. It was
rather fun to indulge in these pretty
fancies after a hard day’s work in the
schoolroom.
“•The day is fair, like other days,’”
she began.
"See. Grace? The snn is shining.
That shows that the day is fair." in
terrupted Nellie engerly. “Strolling up
this brown path—see. my finger travels
through the rose bordered paths—seek
ing for happiness and peace of mind.
Those are represented Jjy the lotus
blossoms away off on another path,
lie misses the turning and goes on, on,
straight toward the sun dragon. The
brown path goes right into the heart of
the san, and my stroller Is swallowed
up In the heart of the sun. Greedy
fellow! lie must have a hard heart,
Grace." She laughed as her pretty
finger prodded the gold embroidered
planet.
"That's because you’re turned into a
glowing jewel of delight," retorted her
friend gnyl.v.
"I wish it were a glowing Jewel of
delight instead of a very ordinary
suu.” sighed Nellie as she arose amt
folded up the gorgeous coat. "There's
the supper hell, and 1 am so untidy!
Do let's hurry or wo won’t get a bite to
eat."
After supper It was a long, dull even
ing. Though both of the girls were ap
parently reading, each one of them
was thinking of the beautiful green
satin coat and how utterly useless it
all was under the present elrcuni-
stnnces.
Nellie carried her sober thoughts to
bod with her, and for many hours she
lay awake, wondering why Uncle Dan
had sent her such an absurd gift when
he knew that she was obliged to work
for lief living ami that the mandarin’s
coat must be an extravagant accessory
to her simple wardrobe.
“I can't understand it," she mur
mured sleepily. "Mother always said
that Uncle Dan was eccentric, but she
said he was hard beaded, practical and
scorned useless extravagance, so— Oh,
I wonder, 1 wonder!”
Now she was wide awake and sitting
up in bed. In a second her feet wore
on the floor mid she was pulling the
mandarin’s coat from its place in her
dresser. She pulled down the shades
and lighted the gas. Grace sat up in
bed and stared dazedly at her friend.
“What is the matter?" she deumuded
drowsily. "Are you crazy. Nellie 1111-
yer?"
Nellie turned her head away from
the blazing sun. at which she was
daintily snipping with her embroidery
scissors. Her face was pink with ex
citement, and her eyes shone.
“Grace Lane, 1 believe there really is
a jewel hidden under this embroidery,"
she cried eagerly.
Miss Lane opened her blue eyes wide
and yawned. Then she hopped out of
bed and sat down on the floor beside
Nellie.
Out of the raised interior of the em
broidered sun there rolled a large
stone tbnt caught the sordid gaslight
and reflected it In javelin points of
flame. Now it glowed redly, palpitat
ing; now it was a still, crimson pool
of flame. It was as large as a hazel
nut
"It is a ruby!" gasped Grace faintly.
"It certainly isn't glass," admitted
Nellie. “So the poem did have a mean
ing after all, Grace. Isn't it wonder
ful? Uncle Dan was trying to see if I
was clever enough to read the story on
the back of the coat. Grace, do you
know what this ruby represents?"
Grace nodded cheerfully.
“Vine wreathed cottage—chickens—
pony cart — everything that we've
dreamed about and never really ex
pected to come true!”
Nellie was looking thoughtfully at
the mandarin's coat She turned it
over nnd examined the blazing suns on
the sleeves and on either front of the
garment.
“Grace," she said quietly, “there are
four smaller reproductions of the gar
den of roses, and in each blazing sun I
believe we will find another jewel!"
“Let us get to work, then," cried
Grnee. fetching her own scissors.
The hands of the little alarm clock
on the bureau pointed to 3 a. m. when
the last blazing sun was despoiled of
its jeweled heart.
The sleeves had given up two enor
mous pearls of great luster, and the
fronts had contributed two blazing dia
monds.
“I take back everything I ever said
about your Uncle Dan.” quavered
Grace Lane as she went to bed with
the gems hidden under the pillow.
“He's a dear!”
“I think I'll say a prayer for him,"
murmured Nellie from the depths of a
grateful heart
Without a word Grace slipped from
the bed and knelt beside her.
• ••••••
In faraway China an elderly man
was dreaming of his home country,
from wtjleh he had alienated himself
for many years.
lie was thinking of the secret con
tained in the green satin mandarin
coat which he had sent to his unseen
niece In New York.
“If she's clever enough to read the
secret she will write me a letter of
thanks, and if the letter is the sort of
letter that shows her to be my sister
Eve’s daughter in disposition, why. I’m
going home to spend the rest of my
days with her."
One day the letter came, nnd it was
the right kind of letter, for Daniel
Drake severed his connections in the
orient nnd took the first steamer for
home, and when he arrived there be
found the rose covered cottage and ills
niece, as well ns another glowing
young specimen of young womanhood,
who was also willing to be adopted
into Ids family. The green satin coat
has been made into a beautiful screen,
nnd It Is one of Nellie’s most precious
possessions.
“It not only lifted us from poverty."
she told her adopted cousin. Grace,
“but it really brought Uncle Dan to
us. And while one can get ulong with
out a whole lot of money It's nice to
have some own folks belonging to
you."

PROMPTLY JSAPPEAR
Chronic, Crippled-up Sufferers
Find Relief After Few Doses
of New Remedy are
Taken
It is needless to suffer any longer
with rheumatism, and be all crippled
up, and bent out of shape with its
heart-wrenching pains, when you can
surely avoid it.
Rheumatism comes from weak, in
active kidneys, that fail to filter from
the blood, the poisonous waste mat
ter and uric acid; and it is useless to
rub on liniments or take ordinary
remedies to relieve the pain. This
only prolongs the misery and can't
possibly cure you.
, The only way to cure rheumatism
is to remove the cause. The new dis
covery, Croxone, does this because it
neutralizes and dissolves all the poi
sonous substances and uric acid that
lodge in the joints and muscles, to
scratch and irritate and cause rheu
matism, and cleans out and strength
ens the stopped-up, inactive kidneys,
so they can filter all the poisons from
the blood and drive it on and out of
the system.
Croxone is the most wonderful
medicine ever made for curing chron
ic rheumatism, kidney troubles, and
bladder, disorders. You will find it
different from all other remedies.
There is nothing else on earth like it.
It matters not how old you are, or
how long you have suffered, it is
practically impossible to take it into
the humar system without results.
You will find relief from the first few
doses, and you will be surprised how
quickly all your misery and suffering
will end.
An original package of Croxone
costs but a trifle at any first-class
drug store. All druggists are au
thorized to sell it on a positive money-
back guarantee. Three doses a day
for a few days is often all that is
ever needed to cure the worst back
ache or overcome urinary disorders.
