A NURSE TAKES
DOCTOR’S ADVICE
And is Restored to Health by
Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound.
Euphemia, Ohio.—“Because of total
Ignorance of how to care for myself
when verging into womanhood, and from
taking cold when going to school, I suf
fered from a displacement, and each
month I had severe pains and nausea
which always meant a lay-off from work
for two to four days from the time I
was 16 years old.
4 ‘ I went to Kansas to live with my sis
ter And while there a doctor told me of
the Pinkham remedies but I did not use
them then as my faith in patent medi
cines was limited. After my sister died
I came home to Ohio to live and that
has been my home for the last 18 years.
“TheChange of Life came when I waa
47 years old and about this time I saw
my physical condition plainly described
in one of your advertisements. Then I
began using Lydia E. Pinkham’s Veg
etable Compound and I cannot tell you
or any one the relief it gave me in the
first three months. It put me right
where I need not lay off every month
and during the last 18 years I have not
paid out two dollars to a doctor, and have
been blest with excellenthealth forawo
woman of my age and I can thank Lydia
E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound for it
“Since the Change of Life is over 1
have been a maternity nur^e and being
wholly self-supporting I cannot over
estimate the valhe of good health. I
have now earned a comfortable little
home just by sewing and nursing. I
have recommended the Compound to
many with good results, as it is excel
lent to take before and after child
birth.”—Miss Evelyn Adelia Stew

The U. S. Navy’s Ammunition Base.
From the Popular Mechanics Magazine.
Close by the west bank of the Hud
son river in the lower passage to the
Highlands, and lying between Stony
Point and West Point, In a region made '
famous by the revolutionary war. Is
long Island, the ammunition base of
the United States navy.
At this little known place, a reserva
tion of slightly more than 100 acres,
Eevera! hundred men are employed In
the preparation of ammunition for the
guns of our warships. Back of the hills
which seclude most of the Island from
general view are magazines and store
houses holding approximately 3,000,000
pounds of smokeless powder, 1,000,000
pounds of black powder and tens of
thousands of shells.
Skirting the Island, Joining its lab
oratories and storage places and con
necting with the landing pier is a
small railroad, the locomotive of which
Is operated with compressed air. This
Is used In the transportation of deadly
cargoes from one building to another
and In carrying ammunition to the
dock, where it is received for the war
ships. The precaution of having a lo
comotive which will not throw sparks,
radiate heat nor require connection
with high voltage wires Is necessary
to avert the danger of an explosion.
Four separate fireproof walls sur
round each of the magazines, which
are divided into compartments In or
der to safeguard against the complete
destruction of the works in the event
of a fire or small explosion. Careful
inspection of all the cartridge stores
and powder buildings is made at fre
quent Intervals during both day and
night. After sundown every visit at
one of these places is recorded at the
administration building by electric In
struments.
Close attention is paid to the tem
peratures wherever explosives are kept,
the heat being regulated to remain be
tween 85 degress and 90 degrees at all
times. The Interior walls and floors of
the magazines are so made that not a
single piece of iron or steel Is exposed.
Upon entering one of the structures
inspectors and workmen wear a special
kind of clothing and soft shoes with
out nails, carrying absolutely nothing
composed of Iron nor anything which
In any possible manner might produce
a spark.
Similar precautions are taken in the
filling rooms, where the charges are
placed In the shells. Here everyone Is
dressed in white serge, and the tools,
such as measuring cups, scales and
funnels, are made of copper, which does
not give off sparks, even when struck
by stone. The supply of powder to be
used during the day Is brought to the
filling rooms each morning, where It
Is emptied into a long wooden trough.
More than half of the smokeless powder
used here Is manufactured at the navy
proving ground at Indian Head, Md.,
while the rest is supplied by privata
firms at the rate of 70 cents a pound.
“Whoso Misfortune?”
From the Kansas City Star.
An article on workmen’s compensation
in the September number of the Eagle
Magazine concludes:
"The question asked is not, "Whose
fault is it?' but rather, ‘Whose misfor
tune?’ ’’
That is an admirable epitome of the
principle of a good workmen’s compensa
tion law.
The right kind of a statute operates
automatically, determines the simple fact
of Injury and awards the relative com
pensation out of a fund already contrib
uted by the industry.
The elder doctrine that the fault, rather
than the misfortune, should be determined
by harsh, hair-splitting law suits results
in most cruel injustice. That older doc
trine places the man below the machine.
No one inquires whether a machine that
is broken was "at fault.’’ The injured
or scrapped machine is charged to the
cost of the industry. The same industry
should no longer "scrap" the worker,
leaving him penniless upon a cold in
quiry into his “assumption of risk," or
"contributory negligence," or some other
rule of the law suit game. Nor Is it
right to subject him to the delays of liti
gation. Nor is it right to leave the amount
of his compensation to the accidental abil
ities of his lawyers and the accidental
sympathies of juries.
"All that glitters Is not gold.’’ All that
Is called "workmen’s compensation" Is not
good. Some statutes so labeled-are so
defective as to be bad; like the one in
Kansas for example. But the principle
that industry should be charged with the
financial risk of injury is right. Proper
statutes, like those of Ohio and Califor
nia. can and do give it effect.

POLICE HAVE BARRED GAIETY IN
ANY SHAPE OR MANNER IN PARIS
The Lid In On So Tight In Gay Capital One Has To Give His
Family History Before Phoning, Wiring Or Eating.
By Herbert Corey.
Paris. Special.—"Let me know about
the train service to Paris,” said Sam
Blythe the day I left London. “Drop
me a wire.”
So, of course, I promised. Anyone
will promise to send a telegram to any
one. Only I didn’t know that persons
who send and receive telegrams are
j regarded with a certain withholding of
tpproval by the Paris police Just now.
j Spies often use the wire.
"Present yourself to me tomorrow
morning to receive your certificate of
■ domicile,” said the hotel manager the
night I reached Paris. “Then you shall
go to the police.”
He Went to the Police.
That had an odd sound, when you
come to think It over. But I got my
certificate of domicile—after the hotel
manager had read my passport and had
seen that the French consul In London
had properly vised It—and called on
the commissalre of police. Here I got
a document entitling me to stay in
Paris for six days. At the end of six
days I must get a new certificate, or
—pouf! as we say In France, I will be
putting some American official to a lot
of trouble getting me out. Then I went
to a telegraph office to send that tele
gram to Blythe.
"Where Is your passport?" asked the
clerk.
So I shoved him my passport and the
vlse3 on It, and my certificate of domi
cile, and my permit de secour, and my
watch with my wife’s picture In it, and
was Just going to show him the broken
blade in rav knife, when he asked to
read the telegram.
“Who,-" asked he, “Is Monsieur
Blythe?”
Well, I didn’t have time to tell him
who Blythe is. There’s too much of It.
Anyhow, he was not a polite clerk, and
yawned at me.
No Telegram for Mr. Blythe.
“Tou must have this telegram coun
tersigned by the commissalre of po
lice," said he.
So I didn’t do It. I felt like the tele
graph clerk. A lot of my enthusiasm
about Blythe had leaked out. I Just
tore that telegram up and threw the
pieces away—but I did It somewhat by
stealth. I didn’t want to arouse any un
just suspicions by tearing up an unsent
telegram on the public streets.
Because there Is no doubt that this
Is something of a ticklish city for for
eigners Just now. All are warned to
carry their pacers with them at all
times. Most of us have been stopped
by the police—some have been stopped
a number of times—but so long as
the papers are all right there Is no
danger. If the papers were musty, there
Is no precise telling what might hap
pen. Paris—with very good reason—
is worrying about German spies. The
managers of two of the large hotels of
the city have been arrested on the
charge of espionage. There have been
other arrests. However, the frequent
ly repeated story that there have been
capital military punishment seems not
to be true.
I have Just one friend In the city who
has a telephone. The hotel operator got
him on the wire for me the other day.
Before getting him I gave a fairly com
plete story of my complete blameless
life. Then I told the operator what a

From the Pictorial Review.
The young man or woman new In
the world f business, faces an ever
increasing number of problems. Most
of these come In the form of what
might be termed financial temptation.
In the average business concern
salaries are not made public. One man
can only guess shrewdly at what the
other man Is earning. False pride often
makes the newcomer hide the
smallness of the salary he Is receiving.
Certain of his fellow workers know this
weakness and play upon it. They clev
erly Insinuate that he Is drawing a
pretty big salary for a young fellow,
that he ought to buy cigars or take up i
the lunch check or treat. And he lacks
the courage to say “No, he can't afford
It.”
They come around with a subscrip
tion paper. The head of the depart
ment is to be married. The foreman’s
wife has died. They are getting up a
benefit for a fellow worker. The new
comer could spare 60 cents or 25 cents,
but the man who passes around the '
subscription paper—generally a self 1
seeking Individual—hints that the boss ;
will see the paper, and no one wants ]
the reputation of being a tightwad.
So the young worker, who could not
afford more than a quarter an easy
and Is Immediately stamped an easy
mark.
It is mighty hard to deny the Insinu
ation—the flattery that you have mon- |
ey to spend, in an age when success ]
Is the most gllterlng of golden calves
set up on the highest of pedestals.
Then to every young man of small 1
Income there is the girl question. ,
There is the girl down town working
at you elbow, who somehow or other
makes It seem almost discourteous not
to pay her car fare. Or she leaves
her lunch check where you can’t very
well Ignore It, or she lets you buy her
evening paper along with yours, or she
tells you about the dancing club she
Is organizing. You really don’t care
anything about her, and she doesn’t
care anything about you, but you hate
to let her spread the tale around the
office that you are stingy. And so she
gets more of your salary than you can
really spare. I
Then there’s the other girl—the girl
on whom you'd gladly spend all that .
you earn. If she’s the right kind of a i
girl, she doesn’t want you to do It. <
If she's the wrong kind of a girl, she 1
soon has you In debt to your tailor and 1
your landlady.
The best time to start saying ‘’No’’ j
Is the day that you start to work. You
will find that you can tear up a sal
ary envelope but you can’t stretch It.
Ten dollars will go no further next
week than this, so if you want a clear
head, keep out of debt.
Using Up Horses In War.
Fioni the Wall Street Journal.
It la one of the grim realities of war
that men are far cheaper than horses. 1
They can be more easily replaced. They
ire not so costly to feud; nor docs what
they cat Involve tho bulk of transport
lecessary to sustain a large cavalry force. 1
The horse la a commodity whose price
may be expected to advance In this coun
try most rapidly. No doubt the buying
will be through private agencies, but tho I
destination will be the field of battle, and
tho nation which commando the sea la
likely to have first pick.
When an advance Is checked, much Is
said about the exhaustion of the men. 1
Exhaustion of the horses Is a far more
serious matter, because the men can soon
rest or bo recruited, but the loet horses j
can only be replaced at a costly expendi
ture of time. No doubt the motor la re
sponsible for much of the transportation -

Talk French or Nothing.
"Hello, buddy!” I blatherd happily
over the telephone. "Say, New York
Just now-”
There was an agitated Gallic voice
upon the wire. 1 gathered that I was
being Invited to talk French or else dis
continue my remarks. So I discon
tinued. That, It appears, Is a police
order. And police orders go in this
town. That 1b definite, precise and final.
Also, everyone obeys police orders, so
far us I can discover, I became mildly
Indignant while at the Cafe Volsln—
where wartime prices have raged ever
since the proprietor heard of the Sal
vation Army battle against sin.
"I do not want bread," I said. "I
want rolls—nice, crisp, tender Uttlo
French rolls that are fattening, but
adorable."
There were no rolls. There are no
rolls In Paris. The moment that the po
lice began to take hold of the situation
they took hold of It copiously and firm
ly. All bread In Paris Is baked In
bakeries. No one bothers to bake bread
at home.
"Hereafter." the police announced to
the bakers, "you shnll not bake rolls,
but bread only. By this means we shall
economize flour against the day when
we may need It."
What the Police Say Goes.
And, as heretofore stated, what the
police say goes. There are no theaters
open. For one thing, the people are In
no humor to be amused. This Is a grim
situation and they are not trying to
“distrust their minds." For the other.
It may be that the police do not regard
with favor any gathering yf the people
Into crowds. Paris has had some bad
moments In her history. Three months
ago there "were countless moving pic
ture theaters open. In no other city In
the world were such high prices for
seats at cinemas obtained as In some
Paris houses. Today there Is but ono
cinema theater In operation.
The total proceeds from Its operation
are given to the Red Cross fund.
From the moment that war was de
clared the Eiffel tower had been feared.
Tills tower supports one of the highest
and most powerful wireless aerials In
the world. A bomb dropped on It might
derange France's plans for getting In
formation, or for communicating with
her allies. Every night searchlights cut
glowing tunnels of light through cloudy
skies are they weave to and fro over
the tower. Four mitrailleuses are sta
tioned at the four corners, each pointed
skyward and protected by movable tur
rets against bombs dropped from aloft.
The streets near these machine gun
stations are barricaded, and squads of
soldiers are on guard. Three of us
walked down to look at the barricades
one evening.
No Place for Foreigners.
"Come,” said one of the party, a man
who lived in France for 14 years as
the French representative of the larg
est Jewelry establishment west ot our
Atlantic seaboard. "Come. We have
been here long enough.”
"And why?" we asked. "Let us star
longer." '
"No/’ said he. "The reasons? W i

“I hope this 'good will,' ” said th«

"I never heard the story.”
"Here It is: The farmer was dying
and he sent for the notary to make oul

river bed.
Within the cars there was some
natural confusion. Men, women and
lunch boxes were thrown Into a heap,
and not an umbrella or a parcel was
left in the racks.
One by one the occupants of the
rear car extricated themselves from
the mass and sought for means of es
cape, while stanching various wounds
caused by broken glass. Every exit
was jammed tight. Just then, in the
midst of the doubt and confusion, rose
a woman’s voice in emphatic demand:
“Let me out! Let me out! If you
don’t let me out, I’ll break a window.”
Buzzard Carries Off Dog.
Eagles are said to be game enough
and strong enough to carry off almost
anything from a inan to cat, but
the first Instance known when a buz
zard carried off a dog was witnessed
on a recent afternoon. The incident
happened a few miles from Bessemer.
A very brave little fox terrier was
endeavoring to chase oft a large buz
zard that had alighted on the ground.
He only succeeded In making the
buzzard fly close to the ground for a
short distance. The buzzard stopped
on a short stump and waited for the
dog, which came barking around the
root of the stump.
The buzzard, seeing his chance,
jumped from the stump, seized the
dog in its mouth and claws, and flew
to a thicket near by.—Birmingham

Why He Objected.
A parson and a a leading parishioner
were not on good terms, and Uaaae
was much speculation in the Tillage
as to the reason.
■It’s all on account of parson iw
fusing to christen master’s youngtofe
child,” the housemaid confided to bar
friend of the dusting brush at tfe*
house across the way. “Master vast,
ed her to be named Dora Ruby Ina*
North Kathleen, but the parse*
wouldn’t do It.”
“It was like parson's cheek,” repJtoA
her friend, “even If he was asked to
give the child a hundred names—”
“Oh, it wasn’t the number of names
which bothered him,” returned ttoe
servant. “He objected to the initial*
that’s all. You see, master’s name to

The Cause Laid Bare
Tea an* coffee drinkers often Bctftn
backache, headache, rheumatic pain, dtn
slneu, drowsy, tired feelings, disturbed
urination and other signs of kidney wealfr»
ness. The constant use of narcotic or al
coholic drinks is very apt to Irritate tkt
kidneys, and weak kidneys need prompt
help to avert all danger of dropsy, grawsB
or fatal Bright’s disease. Avoid the tarn
of stimulants, drink more water, get more,
rest, fresh air and exercise. To tone and
strengthen the tired kidneys, use 2>oaa*o
Kidney Pills, the most successful and
highly recommended kidney remedy.
