A FLORIDA WOMAN’S
EXPERIENCE
Fla.:—"My mother has always
i advocate of Dr. Pierce’a Favor
ite Prescription, as
it had served many
a good purpose in
her experience with
it. I, too. have
used it to tuo best
of advantage for
woman’s troubles,
and when my own
daughter reaches
womanhood I will
givo it to her, so
firm is my con
viction of its many
virtues. The purpose of my using it, was
for irregularity. My physical condition was
very much run-down—did not care much to
stir about or work. I took the medicino
right along without missing a dose until my
general troubles were all corrected. All
womon, ospeoially mothers, cannot make a
mistake in using the 'Favorite Prescrip
tion.’ ’’—MRS. LA VINA DEinbON, 1307

Prayed for Cure
Finds it After 10 Years
Food Would Sour and Boil
—Teeth Like Chalk
Mr. Herbert M. CesRner writes from his
home in Berlin, N. H.:
I had stomach trouble over ten years;
kept getting worse. I tried everything for
relief but it caine back worse than ever.
jLast fall I got awfully bad; could only eut
light louf bread and tea. In Januury I got
■o bad that what I would eat would sour
and boil; my teeth would be like chalk.
I suffered terribly. I prayed every day for
[ something to cure me. One day I read
about EATONIC and told my wife to get
mi} a bo^. at the drug store as I was going
to work at 4 p. in. I took one-third of it
and began to feel relief; when it was
three-fourths gone, T felt fine and when it
wap used up T had no pains. Wife got me
another box but I have felt the pain but
twice, a I used live tablets out of the now
box and I have no more Btomach trouble.
Now I write to tell you how thankful I
am that I heard of EATONIC. T feel like
a new man; I cat what I like, drink plenty
of water, and it. never hurts me at all.

Why That Backache?
Why be miserable witli a bad back?
You can't be happy if every bad day
brings lameness: sharp, shooting pains
and a dull, nagging ache. Likely the
cause is weak kidneys. You may have
headaches and dizzy spells, too, with a
weak, tired feeling. Don’t delay. Try
Doan's Kidney Pills. They have done
wonderB in thousands of such enses.

Among the girls of Manhattan Island
there Is a tradition, Immutable as the
laws of the Medes and the Persians,
that never yet save through the opera
tion of extreme ylolence and utterly
against her own will did one of the sis
terhood leave the city nnd go to the
country to live. Wherefore, when May
Dart, expert board operator in the Bry

Gladys Stein and Ethel Manning, that
she was quitting the job thnt night add
going to Stonyport, away off in the
wilds of Connecticut, to live, they si
multaneously gaped at her Incredu
lously, and with one voice cried:
"Going to the countree! To stay!
Gonnu live with the squirrels and be u
hick ! For gawdsuko. May, hnwdja get
that way?”
“Aw. I Just thought I’d like to do
something different,” replied May, non-
chnluntly. Which was not the whole
truth.
Doctor MncKintry, who had prac
ticed in the Ninth ward more years
than May was old, and who had known
her purents—eased their successive
tuberculous departures out of the
world. In fact—had cajoled, command
ed, bullied and finally thoroughly
frightened May Into getting away from
New York before, as he phrased it.
New York got her.
And so It came to pass that May.

Stonyport telephone central and had
been enthusiastically accepted. “You’re
going In time,” said MncKintry. “If
you come buck In less than a year I’ll
throw you off the dock.”
Stonyport fluttered between the con
dition of n big village nnd the status of
a small city. It called itself the lat

perienced a sense of obligation to look
upon Stonyport with amused tolerance;
attitude in which she persisted,
though she soon perceived that a tele
phone station was n telephone station,
whether in New York or New England,
nnd that the limousines on Slate street
looked about as costly as the ones on
^orty-second.
The Stonyport air, however, was
resher and cleaner than the carbon
ized mixture thnt serves New York,
nnd the big. airy rhree-wlndowed room
overlooking n vistn of gardens, of
which May was the exclusive mistress,
furnished n staggering contrast to the
tiny cell, smelling of gas. from which
she had looked out on the dreary rear
walls of Bank street.
Also, because there was no Gladys
nnd no Ethel and no Bryant Exchange
Dancing club, nnd no long list of the
aters and no Coney—no anything
seemed, May got more sleep, and
sounder, than she had ever known in
her twenty-four years. So she knew
Doctor MncKintry for the wise old owl
that lie was—hut she wasn’t having n
good time and again she voted Stony
port a Jay town.
It was Inevitable, of course, thnt the
coming of Fred Faxon Into the life of
the girl at this lonely stage of it
should he epochal. Logical enough in
any event, Inevitable when he was big
and go .d-looklng and had been through
Mie thick of the hell In France and had
come back to laugh over it and tell
funny stories about It by the hour.

to May. and his “wop” landlord would
only give him n miserly two years’

chances over there. If he didn’t learn
anything else.” Perhaps It w
a use the chances of success were not
less hazardous—his prospects In life

ing at her so wistfully every now and
then.
The Stonyport post of the American
Legion was giving a ball, for the en
hancement of Its building fund—a blj

"You look wonderful.” he exclaimed.
"Are you all ready? We’re not going

“As soon ns I put on my wrap.” Mai-

“Bangl K-f-r-r Bang! Kr-r-r—Bang!

Because It Is the New York habit
and not because she had the slightest

MAUSOLEUM TO BE SPLENDID
Beautiful Resting Place for the Dead
Will Soon Be Dedicated in San
Francisco.
One of the most beautiful homes of
the dead on the western continent will
be opened In San Francisco n few
months hence when the community’s
mausoleum at Holy Cross cemetery Is
(Heated to Its solemn purpose, says
the San Francisco Chronicle.
Every race and ei%ry epoch has had
its great mausoleums—temples to bold
the dust of the departed and stand us
monuments to the lasting memory of
the dend.
Back In the dawn of history the
greatest sculptors the world has ever
known were gathered nt Halicarnassus
by Queen Artemisia to adorn nnd
make Immortal tbe tomb of her hus
band, Mausolaus. the king. Hence
caine the name mausoleum, for the
house beautiful wherein Mausolaus
nnd Ills queen Artemisia slept, was
koned ns one of tbe seven wonders
of the world more thnn 2.000 years
ago.
Centuries Inter the mausoleum of
Augustus Caesar was built on the
Campus Martius, honoring the body .if
the emperor, emulating the glory und
beauty of tbe tomb of the Carina king.
)thor ages and other lands saw sim-
llnr great memorials—the mausoleum
of Theodric nt Ravenna, the five-tow-
red pagoda to the great emperors In
he Forbidden City of Peking, the
tomb of Mahmud at BJi.lapnr, tlie Taj
Mahal nt Agar—the dream palace
that the great Shall Johan raised over
nil that was left to him of his beloved
queen.
Tbe community mausoleum nt Holy
Cross cemetery, will be a severely
noble structure, 205 feet In length, 00
feet In width and a general height of
35 feet, the facade of which is sur
mounted by a central pylon rising to a
height of 05 feet.
Within its walls there will be 1,150
Individual crypts, with 18 private sec- j
tlons and four private rooms; open- |
lug from splendid corridors of marble i
nnd bronze that converge on the
clmpol, which occupy the central space
of tbe edifice.
The walks nre constructed of ee-
niont and steel. The Interior Is entire
ly of marble nnd bronze—brocadillo j
trimmed with olive over a verde an
tique base.
This marble alone cost more tlmn
$100,000. The building will cost $300.-
000. exclusive of the real estate value,
roads nnd landscape gardening that
covers the two-acre site.
For Air or Water.
A new type of airplane Is being ex
perimented with on Long Islnnd which
is adapted for use on the land, water
