H EALTH and beauty are the glories of perfect woman¬ hood. Women who suffer constantly with weakness peculiar to their sex cannot retain their beauty. Preservation of pretty features and rounded form is a duty women owe to themselves. The mark of excessive monthly suf ering is a familiar one in the faces of young American women. Don’t wait, young women, until your good looks are gone past recall. Consult Mrs. Pinkham at the out to her at Lynn, Mass. Miss Edna Ellis, Higginsport, Ohio, writes: “Dear Mrs. Pinkham _I am a school teacher and had suffered untold agony during my menstrual periods for ten years. My nervous sys¬ tem was almost a wreck. I suffered with pain in my side and -—— --- had almost every ill human flesh is heir to. I had taken treatment from a number of physicians who gave me ■ c no relief.

I followed the advice given i me and now I suffer no more during menses. If anyone cares to know more about my case, I will cheerfully answer all letters." Miss Kate Cook, 16 Ad dison St., Mt. Jackson, Ind., writes: “Dear Mrs. Pinkham— I am by occupation a school teacher, and for a long Avhile suf¬ fered with painful menstruation and nervousness. I have re¬ ceived more benefit from Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com¬ pound than from all remedies that I have ever tried." The Englishman’s Experience. He was an American citizen, an:l a bit vainglorious, and be was talking to an Englishman, who had a Avit of his own, despite reports to the contrary. The recent achievements of Uncle Sam In various localities constituted the subject of conversationh, and the Yan¬ kee fairly bulged out with pride. “I am a free American, I am,” he said, slapping his manly bosom, though there was no especial occasion for such a demonstration. “I fancy not,” responded the English¬ man in a tone that sounded as if he knew what he was talking about. The Yankee resented it with prompt¬ ness and dispatnfa. f “I’d like to know, sir, why I am not?” he exclaimed, with the color of wrath rising to his face. “You are married, aren't you?” “Yes.” “And to an American?” “Yes.” “Well, that settles it in my mind, I’ve got an American woman for a Avife myself.” The Yankee smiled, stuck out bi;l hand and said he thought it was aboul time for them to organize an Anglo American alliance not entirely for com¬ mercial purposes.—Washington Star. § I \R **■ £ ft ^ ImitatS 114 m T m THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIOS is due not only to the originality and simplicity of the combination, but also to the care and skill Avith Avliieh it is manufactured by scientific processes knoAvn to the California Fig Syrup Co. only, and we wish to impress upon all the importance of purchasing the true and original remedy.

When the dirigible balloon is a com¬ plete success its use in the operations of war may be practical. Until then— and possibly afterAvard—the balloon promises to be far more dangerous to the army supplied with it than to the one against which it is proposed to use it. It has been shown that it Is possible to make a long voyage at a high rate of speed, three German army officers having traveled 421 miles at a speed of seA'enty miles an hour. But this experiment proves very little as to the practical usefulness of the balloon for military service. It is not likely that these officers could have discovered any important information during this hurried trip, and even if they had they would have descended in the enemy’s lines, where they Avould have been cap¬ tured. In Cuba during the late war the cap¬ tive balloon that was expected to serve as a lookout for our officers above the Spanish lines caused, it was reported, the loss of many lives in our own ranks, because it located our po¬ sition exactly. Even if it Avere possible to steer the balloon in any desired direction, it might not be of much value in Avar, for it would merely transfer to the air a certain amount of the, fighting that now takes place on terra firma. But until our knowledge of air navigation is greatly enlarged we cannot hope for very desirable results from balloons.— Chicago Record. Don't Tobacco Spit and Smoke Your Life lira;.

Crows communicate with each other, as their various notes show; let one give the “look-out" call from a tree while the others are feeding on the ground and see the result. A crow not only knows the language of its kindred but it also knows all the talk of the woods. A squirrel may rustle leaves or give its cheepy call and the crow pays no attention, but let little bushy tail begin to cough and bark at some¬ thing which he regards as an intru¬ sion, and the crow takes a position where he can observe operations with safety to himself. * Let some black¬ birds have an owl at bay in a bush, in daylight, and the crow knows their language and is wise enough to keep out of that scrapping match, for he has knoAvn blackbirds to persecute a poor crow for just taking a few eggs, when there was no evidence- that one egg belonged to the persecutors. The crow is a wise fellow. He has lived in his native land, where the hand of every boy and man has been against him, and where the so-called game birds have been killed off. Crow is not a marketable bird; men are said to have eaten it, but “not to hankei after it;” but if- the bird -was edible and considered “game" he would not be exterminated in settled places as the grouse has been—he knows more than the grouse.
