One of the most perplexing position!"
in which u criminal jury ever finds
itself is when the jurymen believe
that the prisoner is guilty, but are not

No doubt of it; it will drive dogs out
of a tan yard; it will drive 11 splko

it will drive a negro away from a
chicken roost or a man Into Insan

will drive away ants and nlso uncles.

An Interesting matter, from u scien
tific point of view, in connection with
tho denth of Queen Victoria Is tho

Hamilton, BerniudnApril 30. There
Is considerable excitement at present
In Bermuda, over the expected arrival
of 1,700 liocr prisoners. The Hritlsh
government has leased Darrell's Is
land, one of the largest islands in the
sound, and within 11 quarter of a mile
of Warwick shore, for one year. The
army oilicials arc, an usual, very reti
cent, and nothing can be learned from
them on the subject, but as the
blacksmiths of Iho town have been
hounded as to their ability to con
struct several hundred yards of Iron
fence, very strong, close, high and
with spiked points, very little doubt
Is entertained as to the object In view
by the government. 15ennudans are.
not feeling very comfortable over tho
matter. It Is hoped that a very strong
force of European soldiers will be sent
with tho Doers, or matters, it is
feared, may be as uncomfortable as
they were recently at St. Helena.

tilro and inadvisable. No one enn

Wlion a cheerful, bravo and light-hearted woman is sud
denly plunged into that perfection of misery, tho blues, it is
a sad picture.
It is usually thi3 -way :
Sho has been feeling out of sorts for somo time, experi
encing severe headacho and backache ; sleeps very poorly
and is exceedingly nervous.
Sometimes sho is nearly overcome by faintness, dizzi
ness, and palpitation of tho heart j then that bearing-down
feeling is dreadfully wearing.
Her husband says, "Now, don't get the blues ! You will
bo all right after you have taken tho doctor's medicine."
But she does not get all right. She grows worse day by
day, until all at once sho realizes that a distressing female
complaint is established.
Her doctor has made a mistake.
She 1 loses faith ; hope vanishes: then comes the morbid,
melancholy, everlasting blues. Sho should have been told
;just what tho trouble was, but probably sho withheld somo
information from the doctor, who, therefore, is unablo to
accurately locate her particular illness.
i.MFs. PJ11111 ha9 rolieved thousands of women from
just this kind of trouble, and now retains their grateful
letters in her library as proof of the great assistance she has
rendered them. This samo assistance awaits every sick
woman in the land.

self and every one around me. I suffered terriblo
pain in my back, head, and. right side, was very
nervous, would cry for hours. Menses would appear
sometimes in two weeks, then again not for three
or four months. I was so tired nnd weak, could not
sleep nights, sharp pains would dart through my
heart that would almost causo mo to fall.
'My mother coaxed mo to try Lydia E. Pinkham's

much that I continued its use. I am now well and
