THE CHARM OF MOTHERHOOD Enhanced By Perfect Physi cal Health. The experience of Motherhood ip a try ing one to most women nnil movies dis tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one woman in a hundred is prepared or un derstands how to properly care for her self. Of course nearly every woman nowadays has medical treatment atsuch times, but many approach the experi ence with an organism unfitted for the trial of strength, and when it is over her system has received a shock from which it is hard to recover. Following right upon this comes the nervous strain of caring for the child, and a distinct change in the mother results. There is nothing more charming than a happy and healthy mother of children, and indeed child-birth under the right conditions need be no hazard to health or beauty. The unexplainable thing is that, with all the evidence of shattered nerves and broken health resulting from an unprepared condition, and with am ple time in which to prepare, women will persist in going blindly to the trial. Every woman at this time should rely upon Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, a most valuable tonic and invigorator of the female organism. In many homes once childless there are now children be cause of the fact that Lydia E. Pink- ham’s V egetable Compound makes women normal, healthy and strong.

A THREAT AND A SURPRISE. The Venezuelan Despot to Whom Uncle Sam's Official Had Issued a Comic Opera Ultimatum First Go,t on His High Horse and Then Stepped Down. A great many years ago Phil Hanna was consul at Ln c!mi.via. Yonczuelu, when a little revolution broke out. A military martinet in eommuiid of the town iimiouueed himself dictator and. needing money t<> eurry on his activi ties. seized n bunch of American, Eng lish and German residents in the place and locked them in the town Jail. They were informed that they would bo released when they had made cer tain cash contributions to the revolu tionary war chest. llauna was notified of the situation, and. looking up the consulate and leav ing an extra sized American ilag fly ing. he marched up to Die headquar ters of the dictator. "Mr. Dictator," said Hanna. "1 note that you have locked up a number of Americans. Permit me to introduce myself as the American consul.” The dictator asked what, interest that fact: had for him. "It. signifies that, I inn here in the name of my government to demand that these Americans be released in stantly." replied Ilanua. “Can’t do a thing for you." replied the general. “They’ve been told that when they cough up they'll tie turned loose.” "They'll lie turned loose without coughing and without delay," retorted Hanna. "1 desire, in the name of my government, to say that if the Ameri cans and nil the European citizens whom you have locked up are uot re leased by ti o'clock this afternoon I shall proceed to shell the town.” “To shell—what’ll you shell it with?” snorted the dictator. "Why. yon haven't an American ship within a thousand miles, and you know it.” “What 1 said.” replied Ilanua with frozen faced dignity, "was that if those people are not released by C o'clock I'll shell the town." And be marched out again. Hanna knew perfectly well that (here wasn't an American ship nearer than New Orleans, and he knew the dictator knew it. But he hud something up his sleeve. He went back to his ofilee and waited patiently, meanwhile sending a clerk down to the water front to watch tilings. The day wore on to midafternoon. Hanna was getting nervous. He must make good somehow. At last his mes senger returned. “Two British cruisers are coming inf. the harbor, sir." lie reported. “1 knew they were due today," re plied Hanna. “Now, you get word to the commander about what we've dom' here and tell him it's very important for him to come and see me." At 5 o'clock that afternoon three very impressive officers in the uniform of the British navy came ashore and marched straight to the American con ku late. Hanna slouched out of his chair, shook hands all round and explained his scrape. The naval man wanted to know how he could best serve the necessities of the moment. “Just go back on shipboard and begin clearing those vessels for action in the most ostentatious way you can replied Hanna. “I’ll do the rest.” As soon ns the necessary time had elapsed to assure that these facts would have duly Impressed themselves on his dictatorship Hanna started for the palace again. He didn't have to wait for admittance. “Have the American and European prisoners been released?” be asked. “They have not yet.” replied the die tator. "Then permit me to say that at G o’clock sharp, ns I mentioned this mom ing. I begin shelling this town!” "Where’s your American ships?” per sisted the dictator. "The two British cruisers that have entered the harbor today are under my orders.” replied the American consul “and we’ll blow you and your town off tills coast before morning if you don’t perform. Do you get it?” The dictator didn’t know whether it was bluff or not. hut at 0:59 o'clock the prisoners were turned loose. Hanna got a promotion for the job.— New York Sun. Court Calendar.

A ratMewimke dues nut coil up like a ship's cable, as it Is so often pictured, blit In a more Irregular fashion, with tile rattle hearing tail free In the tuid die aud the neck bent hack upon itself so us to he qulekly filing forward In striking. A snake when alarmed or ir ritated often opens its mouth and pro trudes Its longue. Many think that the poison lin ks here. As a manor of fact, the tongue is a delicate sense or guu. corresponding to our car*, and a snake may ho said to hear w'itli Its tongue. The teeth of an ordinary harmless water snake are like little needles, and. i It hough such a snake may, strike ami bite viciously, tile wound amounts to nothing. On (tie other baud. In a rat tlesnake or other venomous serpent there is a pair of long curved hollow fangs in the fore pact of the mouth that are very different from the other teeth. These connect with the poison duels, and when the snake strikes and closes Its jaws the apparatus works like a hypodermic syringe, the pressure of the closing jaws squeezing the ve nom from the poison sac through the hollow fang into the wound. Some snakes have only grooved fangs instead of hollow ones, hut the effect is the sn me. Treatment for the bite of a rattle snake should he prompt and drastic. The time honored whisky treatment is useless. The poison works in tile blood, and the first move should he to tie a ligature between the wound and the heart, so as to keep it oat of the cir culation. The next step should he to cut open tlie wound and hy squeezing and sucking get rid of the venom as quickly as possible. The wound should he thoroughly washed out with a solu tion of permanganate of potash and kept moist with an antiseptic dressing Travelers who are apt to be exposed to bites of poisonous serpents should carry a hypodermic syringe and as soon as bitten Inject a permanganate solution liberally all about the wound. Tills requires nerve, but people with out nerve should avoid tile vicinity of rattlesnakes.—St- Louis Republic. ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE. Action of the Air When an Electrio Bulb Explodes. if a small lump of ice is placed on a plate and light allowed to fall on it through an ordinary reading glass so that the burning focus comes within tlie ice a very interesting thing may be seen. The Ice will begin to melt inside at the point of focus. As ice shrinks on melting, a space will tic left oh ncount of the melted Ice not taking up so mndi room as it did when it was ice. This space is almost a vaeu um and is filled with water vapor of very small pressure. I f the piece of ice be left in the sun to mult from the outside in. as it usually does, the walls of the previously made hole get thinner and thinner. As the pressure of the atmosphere is fifteen pounds to the square inch and as the pressure inside the hole is very slight, there will come a time when the out side air pressure will collapse the lee with an explosive sound. The name phenomenon is apparent when an electric bulb is broken. Peo ple say it explodes, but as a matter of fact it Is crushed Inward on all sides hy the atmospheric pressure. But it is known b.v every one that pieces of glass fly to every corner of tlie room when a bulb explodes, and the fact of its being crushed is not so easily seen The only explanation ns to why glass flies everywhere instead of nicely col lapsing into a closely packed rnaSR of cracked glass at the center of the de funct bulb is that as two pieces on opposite sides are burled inward to ward the center they do not always exactly strike each other and may miss each other altogether. When they do this of course they keep on as they were going—right into different parts of the room. So if a person holds a bulb painted on one side only, with the painted side away from his face and with the clear side directly in front of his face and breaks it, he will find that most of the glass strlk Ing him will he painted and that In the room opposite him will not be. Right at his feet should he pieces of both.— A. L. Hodges in Chicago Herald. Naturally. “Yes." said the Roman Candle, "it was very distressing.
