aud some
times I would get so blind, I could not
see for several minutes.
I could not stand very long without
feeling sick and vomiting. I could not
breathe a long breath without scream

I also had female weakness, inflam
mation of ovaries, painful menstrua
tion, displacement of tho womb, itch

tion of the womb. I have had all these
complaints.
The pains I had to stand wea-e some

to try a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham’s

THE FIELD OF ADVENTURE.
THRILLING INCIDENTS AND DAR
ING DEEDS ON LAND AND SEA.
In the Clutches of an Anaconda—A
Fight With a Ljax^-A Tiger at
Close Quarters.
o N the in one the the sloop of 215th North the Papua of Lad January, Pacific, ones left Seypan, islands, bound 1804,
for Sydney, with a load of eighty-five copra or
dried cocoanut. She was
tons and had a orew of five men, of all
nationalities. One was a Kanaka, the
others English, Italian, Finlander and
an American, Charles Sammy, while
the captain, Held, was a Swedo.
February 1 they were caught in a
typhoon, lost their head sails and were
driven hundreds of miles off their
course to tbe eastward, and finally
came in sight of land, which they be
lieved to be one of the Philippines.
The sloop had struck on the north
side of Ionian! Bay, in the island of
Celebes, and about forty miles from
Fort Amsterdam, a Dutch Government
station on tho coast. Tbe natives were
very civil and agreed to pilot the crew
to that place.
The road was a mere cattle track
through woods so thick that a dog
could scarcely make his way, and
nothing was seen the first day but
droves of monkeys. The heat was
fearful and tho attacks of numberless
insects kept them from sleeping. They
started by daybreak the next morn
ing. ^About 10 o’clock they were com
ing suddenly to an open place in the woods, when
the monkeys began a demon
stration. They howled and chattered,
swinging from tree to tree and casting
branches and nuts into the road.
The natives hung back, explaining
that there was a snake ahead and tbe
monkeys had detected him and were
giving warning. After some hesitation
the Ameiican, Snmmy, a powerful,
reckless fellow, declared that he would
go ahead, snake or no snake. The
guide advised him, but he started and
in a moment was lost to sight. Hud
don ly a curious sound was heard, al
most like a blast of wind, and then a
fearful scream. “The snake has got
him,” said the native. “Quick! Let’s
go away at once."
Captain Held was armed with a
.heavy musket loaded with heavy
spot, and he rushed forward, one of the
natives following. Twining the trunk
of a lingo tree they saw an appalling
Bight. j?he open space was about one
hundred yards square, of pure white
sand, glowing in the sun and bordered
by the rich tropic vegetation. In the
centre was the body of the wretche 1
American in the coils of a monstrous
snake fifty feet long, and almost as
thick os a ship mast. Sammy’s hands
and arms were froe, but his body was
fairly in the black Jand waving yellow coils.
The snake’s head was from
side to side before striking. Although
horror-stricken the captain retained
his grit, and, aiming for the head
about seventy yards away, fired. With
a tremendous hiss and convulsive
spring tho monster uncoiled and en
tered the brush, fold after fold being
seen until it vanished.
For an hour they watched the body
of their shipmate until the monkeys
began to gather around it—a sign that
the snake wa« gone. body They went for
ward,picked up the and brought
it to tho road. The face was horribly
distorted, and every bone in the body
broken by the crushing coils. Al
though a large mau, weighing ITO.the
hips could be spanned by two hands.
Death must have been instantaneous.
A Fight With a Lynx.
The ugliest appearing animal that
ever walked a log, killed a rabbit or
fought a trap is the lynx, whioh is just
as ugly as it looks ten months in the
year and somewhat uglier during tho
other two. Not only will the lynx
fight anything that walks the woods,
but it will also tackle a visitor from
the clearings, be he mau or dog or
half-grown calf, if the occasion offers.
Jim Berry was hunting np in Maine,
about forty miles north of Greenville,
When he and his friend suddenly came
upon the carcass of a caribou which a
bear was eating. The bear made it
self scarce, much to Jim’s regret, as
he wanted to kill the bear. Without
saying anything to his friend he left
camp the next day and started for the
carcass of the caribou, feeling certain
that the bear would return, I le
waited and watched until about three
o’clock in the afternoon, when he be
gan to think of returning to the comp.
A soft footfall back in the woods, the
crafty step of some wild animal, just
then sounded in his ears. Pretty soon
the animal was chewing the caribou
meat, and Jim could see it plainly.
He leveled his bnokshot gun and
pulled the trigger when the wabbling
muzzle was pointed in what he thought
was the right direction. The beast
went down and Jim started for it.
Then he stopped with his mouth open.
The beast had leaped to his feet and
jumped sideways with its back up.
Jim knew the yell, and be also recog
nized the humped back, It was a
wounded lynx spoiling far a iigbv.
Not having time to level hie gua to
shoot, the man dubbed it, and the
blow stunned the cat a little, but the
beast got in a take on the man’s leg
and tore his trousers and hide, too.
Another frantio sweep of the’gun bar
rel laid the beast flat, and then a re
volver bullet killed the animal. The
buckshot had torn the top of the lynx
bead—enough to make it angry.
A Tiger at Close Quarters.
Colonel H. Ward tells in the Bad
minton Magazine about a tiger that he
shot in India:
“We were after a tiger on an old
trail,” he says, “when the men began
to consult as to what would best be
done. While they talked I wandered
away alone up a small stream, on
either side of which the grass had
been bnrnecl, leaving a fine gray ash
spread over the ground. In this I
found the perfectly fresh footprints
of a largo tiger, which we had evi
dently disturbed. Following cau
tiously, I presently saw the tiger
about fifty yards in front of me, walk
ing slowly along the bamboos; lie
neither saw nor heard me, and seemed
to snspoot nothing. I followed him
till ho dipped into a rav'ne; then I
ran back and sent the men round to
drive him toward me. There was no
large tree available, so I lay down on
a flat rock, with a sloping bank to my
left, and on the right a clear space
about eight yards wide to the side of
the hill, which rose in a perfectly
straight scarp. I hoped the tiger
would come to my left, below me, but
he didn’t. Instead, he came headed
go that bad I left him alone he would
have passed within about eight six feet yards Of off me. I
When he was
fired, and as the smoke cleared away I
saw the brute’s jaws close to the muz
zle of the rifle. I pulled the the trigger rifle,
of the other barrel, dropped
rolled over the bank and leaped into a
Bmall tree during the next few seoonds.
But the tiger was dead, shot through
the heart. His whiskers were burned
by the second charge.”
His Dogs Dug Him From the Snotv.
Frank Andreas has been saved from
an untimely death by his two noble
dogs. He was on his way to the black
smith stop, some distance from the
mine, when he was caught by a big
snowslido, which started about 200
feet up the mountain. Ho was carried
quite a distance and lodged against
the gulch and covered over with four
feet of hard-packed snow. His two
dogs, which are quarter St. Bernard,
escaped the avalanche. They soon
located their master and began to dig
away the snow. By the faithful work
of the dogs and the use of his left arm,
which was fortunately in an upright
position, Mr. Andreas soon gained a
small opening whioh enabled him to
breathe. He declared that a few
minutes more and he would have been
dead. One hour and a half of hard
struggling, and by picking away the
hard snow from his body and throwing
it ont of the opening made by the
dogs, brought tjiat a most welcome relief,
and one will not soon be forgot
ten. The gulch proper was filled with
snow ten feet deep for a distance of
seventy-five feet. — Mountanhome
(Idaho") Bepnblican.
Struggle With a Wildcat,
Joe Benkamp, a hunter, living in
the Bamapo Mountains, had an ad
venture one day recently in the letter. foot
hills, says a Haverstraw (N. Y.)
There was snow on the ground, and
Benkamp had not prooeeded far when
he came across some peculiar traoks.
They were unlike anything he remem
bered and he followed them up.
Ho had followed the tracks about
half a mile when he came across the
maker of them. It was a wildcat. The
animal was crouched on tbe limb of a
tree. He sprang behind a tree and
fired at tho animal.
TBe shot only wounded it, and be
fore Benkamp could reload the mad
dened wildcat was at him. He quiokly
grasped his knife, and then there was
a fierce struggle. The hunter con
quered, but not beforo ho had been
considerably bitten and scratched.
Benkamp declares that ho had a
narrow escape. He says that when
the wildcat first sprang at him he
thought ho was a ‘'goner.” He got
hold of its throat and then stabbed it
to death.
Benkamp has been noted for the
great strength of his hands. '{Tie
wildcat was four feet in length and
weighed fifty-three pounds. A wildoat
has not been caught in the Bamapo
regions for a great many years and it
was thought that they were extinot,
Japanese Gardening.
The Japanese have tlia apt of dwarf
ing trees to mere shrubs, and of
cultivating plants in a similar way,
The people take great delight in their
miniature gardens, whioh require a
special gardener to keep them down
to desired limits. The author of “On
Short Leave to Japan” writes: “A
Japanese garden is generally about
ten yards square, and in this small
space is found a park end demesne,
with lake, summer house, temples,
trees, all complete, aud all in keeping
with the dimensions available. The
lake is four feet long, and full of small
goldfish. On the border stands a
pine tree, exactly eighteen inches
high and fifty years old; beneath its
shade is a temple carved out of one
piece of stone the size of a brick. On
a lofty orag of some two and a half
feet stands a fine maple tree, perfect
in form and shape, fifteen years old
and twelve inches high. We bought
three of these miniature trees later—
a maple, aping and a bamboo olump
—each about fifteen years old and
eighteen inches to two feet high,
growing in shallow dishes. Wo were
told of a complete garden contained in
a shallow two-dozen wine case. Every
thing was complete, down to the fish
in the lake, a sheet cf water only a
fevr inches square, ped ths fort
bridges over the watercourses, Tea
houses there were, aad numerous
trees pf various kinds, each about eix
inches high, (lid as the hills these,
but full of vitality, ana yet never
growing bigger.”
liouey-Ants,
It is well known that in Sarawak as
well as Colorado aud Mexico, there
are honey-ants of the genus Myrme
coeystns.' Another which genus of ants
(Camuonotus), to our common
large black ant belongs, has three
species which have this singular
honey-storing habit. Two of them
live in Australia, but though their
abdomens are considerably swollen,
they seem to be able to move about
slowly, unlike those of the genus
myrmecoeystus. — New York Indepen

The Most Valuable Spots On Earth.
Probably the most valuable spot on
the face of the earth (as the burial sites
in Westminster Abbey cannot be
bought with gold) are the four corners
where Wall street touches Broad, and
the two where it meets Broadway. I
cannot guess howlarge a pfice any one
of these might bring in the market
now, but a million dollars and a half
a million dollars more were recently
paid for five lots on Broadway, oppo
site Bowling Green. This was the
value of the laud alone, as the old
buildings it bore were at once torn
down; yet, says Philip Hone, a lot in
just this place sold in 1829 for only
§19,500. As late as 1840 lots on Cort
landt street could be had for $1,000,
or even for $700. But a year or two
ago the corner of Liberty street and
Nassau, measuring 79 feet along the
one, 112 along the other, and about
l00 feet in depth, brought $1,250,

Pill Clothes.
The good pill has a good coat. The pill coat
serves two purposes; it protects the pill, en
abling it to retain all its remedial value, and it
disguises the taste for the palate. Some pill
coats are too heavy; they will not dissolve in
the stomach, and the pills they cover pass
through the system as harmless as a bread
pellet. Other coats are too light, and permit the
speedy deterioration of the pill. After 30 years
exposure, Ayer’s Sugar Coated Pills have been
found as effective as if just fresh from the labor
