“Dear Mrs. Pi.nkham ;— I write to
tell you of the good Lydia E. I'ink

me. I was sick in bed about five weeks.
The right side of my abdomen pained
me and was so swollen and sore that I
could not walk. The mr***wm
doctor told my hus- §|fK
band I would have to
undergo an operation. {Zv

“ Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—I was sick for
two years with falling of the womb, and
in 11 animal ion of the ovaries and bladder.
I was bloated very badly. My left limb
would swell so I could not step on my
foot. 1 had such bearing down pains 1
could not straighten up or walk across
the room and such ahootingpains would
go through me that 1 thought I could
not stand it. My mother got me a bottle
of Lydia E. Pinkliam's Vegetable Com¬
pound and told me to try it. - I took six
bottles and now, thanks to your won
deriful me-dfcine, I am a well woman.”

Exit the Lady.
Wo have nil met people whose pride
In their own possessions is so great
that they can see no charms in those of
others.
A young botanist was showing a
jiarty of ladles and gentlemen through
a conservatory, and explaining ta
them the properties of some of the
choicest plants.
Among the visitors was a would-be
young-looking midle-aged lady who, at
every description, volunteered the
statement that the plants and (lowers
eho had at home were quite equal to
onythlng exhibited here, or. Indeed,
anywhere. Just-as they were passing
a giant cactus she was heard to ex¬
claim :
“Well, this is nothing extraordinary.
I have a cactus at home that is still
larger. I planted and reared it my¬
self."
“Reared It yourself?” the botanist
gently observed. “How remarkable!
This specimen is sixty-three years old,
find lf yours is still larger-”
The lady did Hot stay to hear any
£nore, but executed a strategic move¬
ment to the rear.—Tit Bits.

FACTS AS TO WINKS.
s.....*. *«« «.« «», w« Do * <..
Mystery,
No satisfactory determination has
been made of the reason we wink,
Some suppose that the descent and re
turn of the „ d over , he eve serves to
8Wee P or wash “ off „ ’ others . that cover '
!ng of the eye, gives It a rest from the
labor of vl8ion - lf only for flD luappre
rinblo instant. This view borrows
force from the fact that the rec
ord of winking is considerably used
by experimental physologists to help
measure the fatigue which the eye suf
S '
In another line of investigation Herr
S. Garten has attempted to measure the
length of time occupied by the fliffer
cut phases of a wink. He used a spe
chilly arranged photographic apparatus,
and affixed a piece of white paper to
the edge of the eyelid for a mark. He
found that the lid descends quickly,
and rests a little at the bottom of its
movement, after , which ...... it- rises, but
more slowly than it fell. The mean
duration of the downward movement
was from 75 to 91 thousandths of a
second; the rest with the eye shut last¬
ed variously, the shortest durations be¬
ing 15 hundredths of a second with one
subject and 17 hundredths of a second
with another; and the third phase of
the wink, the rising of the lid, took 17
hundredths of a second fore, making
the entire duration of the wink about
40 hundredths, or four-tenths of a sec¬
ond. The interruption is not long
enough to interfere with distinct vision.
M. V. Henri says, in, L’Annee Psy
chologigue, that different persons wink
differently—some often, others rarely;
some in groups of 10. or so at a time,
when they rest a while; and others
regularly, once only at a time. The
movement is modified by the degree 6f
attention. Periods of close interest,
when we wink hardly at all, may be
followed by a speedy making up for
lost time by rapid winking when the
tension is relieved.—Popular Science
Monthly.
Infantry In Battle.
In battle it is not the number of men
who are disabled in a day’s fighting
that tells upon the morale of troops,
but It Is the losses which may be in¬
curred within a comparatively short
time that tend to demoralize anil un¬
nerve thorn. For example, a corps of
20,000 men may lose in a day’s fight
10,000—one-half of its number—with¬
out being demoralized, but should they
lose oue-llftli of their number—say 3,
000 or 4,000 men—In the course of half
an hour, their morale, would surely bo
destroyed.
The British military operations, espe¬
cially their battle tactics, have been
freely and even virulently criticised by
the military experts of other European
nations—especially the Germans. It is
not, however, at nl) assured that they
would not have suffered at first from
the Indulgence in the same faulty
“shock” tactics by delivering frontal
attacks upon entrenched troops.—Inter¬
national Monthly.
A Curious Accident.
At Sheffield, England, recently, a cu¬
rious accident occurred. A jiassenger
was riding on a double dock electrical
car, and a single deck car passed in tho
opposite direction. The rope of the
trolley boom of tlie latter was flying
in the wind, and It wound Itself around
the passengers’ neck. Fortunately ho
had the presence of mind to seize the
rope with both hands and release him¬
self, or he would probably have been
pulled from the ear.
The Trust Problem.
To a thoughtful mind, the trust problem is
one of serious for import. It must society bo firmly ho
grappled with, It of creeps existence, upon in this
foro you are aware its re¬
spect much resembling tlie various disorders
which attack the stomach, such us constipa¬

ailments. Be sure to give it u trial.

A Crop of Volcanos.
Not far from Laytonville, Cal., a six
acre patch of ground has raised a crop
of little volcanoes. A few nights ago
a tremendous rumbling and roaring
drew attention to the fact that twenty
five spouters had broken loose on the
side of the mountain, each resembling
a volcano in shape, with the charneter
istic crater, and from each crater
gushed mud and warm vapor. Each
“volcano” was about five feet high,
and the liquid mud. steaming and spuU
tering, was thrown to a height of
twenty-five feet, and ran down the
sides of tho little hills like streams of
lava. Great crowds of people hurried
to the place and for hours sat on the
mountain side and watched the pheno¬
menon.
FOR CHILLS MALARIA, AND
FEVER.
The Best Prescription Is Grove's
Tasteless Chill Tonic.
The Formula Is Plainly Printed on Every Bottle
So That the People May Know Just
What They Are Taking.
Imitators do not advertise their formula
knowing that you would not buy their medi
cine if you knew what it contained. Grove’s
contains Iron and Quinine put up in correct
proportions and is in a Tasteless form. The
Iron acts as a tonic while the Quinine drives
the malaria out of the system. Any reliable
druggist will tell you that Grove’s is the
Original and that all other so-called “Taste¬
less” chill tonics are imitations. An analysis
of other chill tonics shows that Grove’s is
superior to all others in every respect. You are
not experimenting when you take Grove’s—its
superiority and excellence hdving long been
established. Grove’s is the only Chill Cure sold
throughout the entire malarial sections of the
United States. No Cure, No Pay. Price,
