My appe tite was fitful, and I would lie awake for hoursj and could not sleep, until I seemed more weary in the morning than when I retired. After reading one of your advertisements I decided to try the merits of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and I am so glad I did. No one can describe the good it did me. I took three bottles faithfully, and besides building up my general health, it drove all disease and poison out of my body, and made me feel as spry and active as a young girl. Mrs. Pinkham’s medicines are certainly all they are claimed to be.’ — Mrs. M. E. Hughson, 347 East Ohio St., Chicago, 111. Mrs. Pinkliam Tells How Ordinary Tasks Produce Displacements. Apparently trilling incidents in woman’s daily life frequently produce displacements of tlie womb. A slip on the stairs, lifting during menstruation, Standing at a counter, running a sewing machine, or attending to the most ordinary tasks may result in displacement, and atrainof seriousevils is started. The first indication of such trouble should be the signal for quick action. Don’t let the condition become chronic through neglect or a mistaken idea that you can overcome it by exercise or leaving it alone. _ More than a million women have regained health1 by the use of Lydia L. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. If the slightest trouble appears which you do not understand write to Mrs. Pinkliam, at Lynn, Mass., for l>,er advice, and a tew timely words from her will show you the right tiling to do. Inis Advice costs you nothing, but it may mean life or happiness or both. Mrs. Lelah Stowell, 177 Wellington St., Kingston, Ont., writes: “Dear Mrs. Pinkham: — You are indeed a f godsend to women, and if they all knew what t you could do for them, there would he no need A of their dragging out miserable lives in agony. _ ^ “I suffered for years with bearing-down pains, womb trouble, nervousness, and excruciating head ache, but a few bottles of Lydia 13. Pinkliam’s Vegetable Compound made life look lr^\ new and promising to me. I am light and 31 \ happy, and I do not know what sickness v u 1 is, aiid I now enjoy the best of health.” nffi cay** " liyaia J,. t-mnnam s wegeuium W Compound can always be relied upon to restore W health to women who thus suffer.

Ross. ■ (Copyright. 1904. by W. R. Hcarst.) | Lilian shook her head. “I am sorry. Sir George," she said, Sorrier than I can Bay, because. I'm afraid, I must unconsciously have given | Fou cause to believe that I cared for you.*’ | "No, no, indeed! Miss Carruthers, you j have not—at least—I hoped I had made jrou love me—but it was not your fault. It wras, and is, impossible for me to expect anything else." "I’m afraid you must." "Most things have gone well with me all my life. It makes it harder to believe that what 1 want most of all Is to be denied me. 1 fear I’m a spoilt person and can’t give up my own way easily. I dare not look forward to a life without you, it is worth nothing to me. Why may i not hope to win you some day, Lilian?" "Because I do not love you." "Is that all?" "No, there is Jack." Sir George turned pale under his tan. "Who is Jack?" he asked gravely. "Jack Trevelyan is our nearest neigh bor in Devonshire. We have alw'uys been great friends." "Friends, or something more?" Lillian blushed and played with a paper knife which was in a book by her side. "I think we wTere something more. At least I always thought Jack the only man in the wrorld for me, but he was poor and proud, and he never told me of his love. He would not, you know; because, if he became engaged to me before he made any money of his own. people would say it was for my fortune." "That is false pride." "Yes, I think so, too. but the Trevelyans are horridly, absurdly proud." "How long Is that ago?" "I haven’t seen Jack for a year, not since I came to auntie." "You wrere very young. Lillian, I love you so much that in time you must learn to love me. I can risk it, dear, if only you will marry me." "No. I can’t do that with a clear con science.’’ "Then, at least, defer your answer. Think it over. Wait a day before you de cide. Tomorrow at this time I w'lll come for your reply." He looked so tenderly and kindly at the girl as ho left her that ehe smiled back at him, and ho felt reassured. He was always so good to her, Lillian remembered, so considerate and kind. Binco she had known him her life ha*! been much more interesting, much fuller —they had so many tastes and hobbles in common. As Lilian turned to the book she had been reading when he came in, ehe real ized that unless she married him she would no longer have some one to choose her books and guide the reading she so much enjoyed. Then her thoughts wan dered to all the good times, Intellectual and otherwise, they could have together, and the pleasure it would give her parents I and aunt if she married Sir Georbe Hen i don. She awoke next morning to the con sciousness of a crisis in her life, and her lover’s pleadings of the day before sound ed in her ear. Presently the maid brought her morn ing tea and her letters. She opened the one in her mother’s handwriting as being the mosV interesting of the budget. “Just the same excltments,” she mur mured as she read It. “Jupiter has hurt his back—that idiot John must have been I careless with the saddle again. Tne fruit trees promise wonders, especially the old plum near the tennis court, because War- \ ren burled some cats under It—horrid— and what’s this?—Jack Trevelyan had a horrible accident with his motorcar—con cussion of the brain and broken arm. They think he will pull through now, but It was a narrow escape. Good heavens!” With this exclamation the girl Jumped up and rang for her maid. “Quick, Esther, pack me a bag and my dressing case. I must catch the early train home. No, you needn’t come with me. What shall you tell my aunt? Say I'll be back In a day or two, that Jupiter —no, that won’t do—that mother wants me.” Before the household had breakfast, Lil ian had started on her journey to the bed side of the lover whom she had nearly lost twice over. Without a moment’s hesitation she fol lowed the dictates of her heart. Her Im mediate thought had been to go to him In his trial and sickness. Bhe wood heal his sorrow with her love, and break down his false pride. She realized in time all that her old comrade was to her, and she, at least, had no pride to keep them apart. The long journey seemed longer than usual to her anxious mind, but during the afternoon she arrived at her destination. With a face beaming with Joy at the thought of seeing Jack so soon, she walked Into her mother’s drawing room. ”Lil, my darling,” and she had her mother’s arms round her. “Why, what are you doing here? Where have you come from?” Lilian laughed, and seeing her mother _ was not alone, turned to Bpeak to her guests. “Mrs. Trevelyan,” she cried, kissing that lady after greeting the others, “how Is Jack?” She waited breathlessly for the reply, though she knew that her absence from her son meant good progress. “Doing famously, iny dear,” was the laughing answer. Mrs. Carruthers took her daughter's hand and gently drew her to a seat beside her. “We have great news about Jack,” she said, quietly. “He has been made very happy through fils accident.” She kept her hand in Lilian’s in her wish to help her bear what, with her mother’s Instinct, she knew would be a shock. Mrs. Trevelyan Interposed. “Yes, Indeed, my dear. As soon as ever his accident was known, Dolly Marsh mont drove over, and, taking the fort by storm, insisted on seeing Jack. They made it up somehow', and it appears that she had refused him six month ago. And now they are both radiant.” “How delightful!” exclaimed Lilian, clapping her hands gayly, “and now I must tell my news, though It seems a shame to tell you all before I warned my parents. Mother, dear, I’ve come to tell you of my engagement to Sir George Hen don.” The congratulations of her old friends were sincere, but hard to bear. Lilian, however, felt rewarded by the look of re lief on her mother’s face. Sir George received the answer which gave him so much happiness by w ire that evening.” How a Starfish Feeds.

Made by the Women From the Skint of Northern Animals. American Tailor and Cutter—The chief | material of the clothing of the Esquimo ts the skin of the reindeer, which Is used j In various stages of pelage or tanning. Fine, short-haired summer skins, espe cially those of does and fawns, are used for making dress garments and under clothes. The heaviest winter skins fur nish extra warm Jackets for cold weath er. The white spotted skins of the tame Stbenan reindeer are especially valued for full dress Jackets. The skins of the white mountain sheep, white and blue fox, wolf, dog, ermine anil lynx are sometimes made Into clothing Underjackets of elder duck skins are often pressed Into service. Sealskin dressed with the hair on Is used only for breeches nnd boots, and for those rarely. Of late years drilling and calico have been Introduced Into the make-up of some of the minor garments. The dress of the men consists of a loose hooded frock, without opening except at the neck and wrists. This reaches Just over the hips, and very rarely to mld thlgh, where H la cut off square and usual ly confined by a girdle at the waist. Un der this garment Is worn a similar one of lighter skin and sometimes without a hood. The thighs are clad In one Or two pairs <ft tlght-flttlng knee breeches, rath er loose, but fitted to the shape of the leg. They are very low In front, but are much higher behind, sometimes as high as the small of the back. They are held In place ( by a girdle or thong around the waist, > and are usually fastened below the knee, aver the boots, with a draw-string. On the legs and feet are worn, first, a pair of long deerskin stockings with the hulr inside, then slippers of tanned seal- . skin. In the bottom of which *s spread n layer of whalebone shavings, and outside a pair of close-fitting boots, held In place by a string around the ankle, which reaches auove the knee and ends with a rough edge covered by the breeches. Dress 1 boots often end In an ornamental border , with draw-string Just below the knee. The boots are of reindeer skin, with white sealskin soles for winter and dry weath er; but In summer waterproof boots of white whaleskln are worrw Overshoes of the same material, reaching Just above the ankles, are sometimes worn over the winter boots. The women wear tlght-flttlng deerskin pantaloone with the hair next the skin, j and outside of these a similar pair, made I of the skins from deer legs, with the hair ! out, and having soles of sealskin, but no ankle strings. The women's pantaloonB, like those of the men, are fastened with a girdle Just above the hips. It appears that they do not stay up very well, us the women are continually hitching them up and tightening their girdles, like some old ; sailor. Until they reach manhood the boys wear ' pantaloons like the women, but their Jack- i els are cut Just like those of the men. The well-to-do Esquimo generally own several complete suits of clothes, and pre sent a neat appearance when not engaged In dirty work. The poorer class wear one suit for all occasions until It becomes shabby. New clothes are seldom put on till winter. The outer frock Is not often worn In the lglu, or hut home, being usually taken off before entering the room. At present there is no such thing as an Esqulino tailor, for the women of each Esquimo household usually make the gar ments of all the members of the family. Not only this, but the Esquimo are ex tremely conservative In the matter of changes In the style of their raiment, and respond very slowly to the modernizing Influences in this particular which have , reached their neighborhood. Women Break Down. Sometimes women drift into a condition of “half invalid.” Contin ual languor, all tired out, run down, back ache, nerves shattered, headache, terrible pain, no appetite, poor diges tion. In nine cases out of ten it's because the kidneys fall to cio their work of filtering the poi sonous system waste from the blood. The kidneys are weak and need the strengthening help of Doan's Kidney Pills. Read how these pins repair a weaaeueu puysnui uvuu* tion when this condition Is caused by sick kidneys: Mrs. Sadie Mettles of 394 W. Fourth avenue, Columbus, Ohio, says: “Frior to the year 1898 I suffered considerably fiotn backache, pain In the head, lan guor and depression and weakness of the action of the kidneys. The pain was always worse in the morning and I felt miserable. I was Induced to pro cure a box of Doan’s Kidney Fills and I began their use. They proved prompt and effective. They cured me and there has been no return of the trouble since taking them. I owe atl the credit to Doan’s Kidney Pills.” A FREE TRIAL of this great kid ney medicine which Cured Mrs. Mettles will be mailed on application to any part of the United States.
