WOMAN SO ILL WASHED DISHES SITTING DOWN Mrs. Ashcroft’s Remarkable Recovery After Taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound Covinjrton, Ky.—“I was so weak and nervous I could hardly do mv housework 00 1 CUUIU nut LSI 1(2 because of the bear ing-down pains in my back and abdomen. 1 sat down most of the time anddidwhat I could do in that way—as washing dishes, etc. One day a book describing Lydia E. Pinkham’s medicines was put in my mail-box. I saw now the Veers table Compound had helped others so I Sve it a trial. I had to take about a zen bottles before I gained my strength but I certainly praise this medicine. Then I took Lydia E. Pink ham's Blood medicine for poor blood. I was cold all the time. I would be so cold I could hardly sit still and in the palms of my hands there would be drops of sweat. 1 also used the Sanative Wash and I recommend it alto.

Flamm recently attracted world wide attention through the announce ment of his designs for the world’s largest underwater cruiser, and h* has been one' of the submarine’s greatest champions for many years. Former obstacles, hindering the construction of giant submarines, have now been overcome by the adoption of a new hull ensuring per fect stability, Flaram states. This new hull conduces to steadiness of trim and enables relatively enormous weights to be carried on the upper part of the hull. Previously monster submarines, such as the latest United States and English types, had to bo heavily weighted with ballast dis tributed over various parts of the bottom of the boat, and it is claimed by Flamm that this decreases under water running speed and gives the boat a great tendency to roll. The new hull is Flamm’s inven tion, and he states that he is already considering the plans for a diving cruiser of 7,067 tons, double the ton- ' nage of any submarine at present In commission, which would carry defensive armor weighing 614 tons, and an armament of turret guns, quick-firers and torpedo tubes, with a weight of slightly more than 600 tons. He Is also discussing the pro ject for a submarine mine-layer, of 7,734 tons displacement, which would carry a thousand mines, each weigh ing a ton. Flamm th:nks that the mine-layer would be one of the most dangerojs and formidable ships of war. Discussing the tactical value of Ihese giants, Flamm, although he says that he thinks battleships and either surface men of war are still indispensable, claims that the sub marine will have a much higher place In future naval warfare than it did \n the World war. He characterizes the Washington conferences’ attempt and agreement to reduce the size of submarines as a display of "Anglo-American cant,” Flamm says that hit new vessel, mounting one or more heavy guns In deck turrets and having its sides plated with armor, could rise to the surface, and, with only Its upper works showing, shoot with deadly ef fect at the sides of n dreadnought. The submarine would present an al most invisible target, and could only be hit by chance. The proposed new mine-layer would be able to keep at sea for months and would have a very high speed .end wide radius of action. It would be almost independent of bas es, or of mother ships. Flamm emphasizes that the whole problem of submarine building is stability, and that the more this prob lem is successfully overcome the larger submarines will become. Berlin Bad Man Jailed By Wife and Best Pal Berlin.—Sent to prison by his own wife, so she could live undisturbed with his best pal—that is the'mis adventure of Johann Schreiber, one of the best-known members of Ber lin’s underworld. Schreiber and his pal, Bruno Ka suske, were both in jail. Kasuske was to leave first. Said Johann to his pal Bruno: "Give my regards to my wife.” Said Bruno to his pal Johann: "Sure.” Bruno did. He came, saw, con quered. When Schreiber came home, he found his pal Bruno in his place. At once, Schreiber ran to the po lice and made one confession after another about misdeeds and crimes which he said he had committed with the aid of his wife and Bruno. Thereupon, the wife and Bruno ac cused Schreiber of many misdeedsc in which they weren't' involved. Schreiber wasn't able to prove Ids "confessions.” His wife and Bruno were able to prove thrir charges. So Schreiber is back in Jail for four years, and his wife and Bruno are nesting cosily in his home. MinUters* Sons Are j Really Not Bad Chicago,—If your father was a minister your chances of gaining em inence are 2,400 to 1 better than those of the laborer’s son. The time worn tradition that the clergy-man’s son was more frequently a inmate of prison than a sucessful business man has been knocked In the head. This was the assertion of Frank E. Hand , Supreme Vice Chief Hanger of the Independant Order of Foresters, in an address here before a child welfare ronference.

Christmas Trees By Robert Frost (A Christmas Circular Letter) The city had withdrawn itself And left nt last the country to the country; When between the whirls of snow not come to lie And whirls of foliage not yet laid, there drove A stranger to our yard who looked the city Yet did in country fashion in that there He sat and waited till be drew us out k-buttoning coats to ask him who he was. He proved to be the city come again r To look for something it had left behind And could not do without and keep Us Christmas. He asked If I would sell my Christ mas trees; My woods—the young fir balsam* like a place Where houses all are churches and have spires. I hadn’t thought of them as Christ mas trees. I doubt if I was tempted for a mo ment To sell them off their feet to go In cars And leave the slope behind the house all bare Where the sun shines now no warm er than the moon. I’d hate to have them know it if I was. Yet more I’d hate to hold my tree* except As others hold theirs or refuse for them, Beyond the time of profitable growth, The trial by market everything must come to. I dallied so much with the thought of selling. Then whether from mistaken cour tesy And fear of seeming short of speech or whether From hope of hearing good of what was mine, I said, “There aren’t enough to be worth while.” “I could soon tell how many they would cut, You let mo look them over.” “You could look. But don’t expect I’m going to let you have them.” Pasture they spring in, some in clumps too close That lop each other of boughs, but not a few Quite solitary and having equal boughs All round and round. The latter -he nodded “Yes” to. Or paused to say beneath somt lovelier one, / With a buyer's moderation, "That Would do.” I thought so too but wasn’t there to say so. We climbed the pasture on the south, crossed over And came down on the north. He said, “A thousand.” “A thousand Christmas trees!—at what apiece?” He felt some need of softening that to me: "A thousand trees would come to thirty dollars.” Then I was certain that I had never meant To let him have them. Never show surprise! But thirty dollars seemed so small, beslds The extent of pasture I should strip, three cents (For that was all they figured out apiece) Three cents so small beaide tha dollar friends I should be writing to within the hour Would pay In cities for good trees like those. Regular vestry-trees whole Sunday schools Could hang enough oa to pick a enough. A thousand Christmas trees I didn’t know I had! Worth three cents more to give away than sell, As may be shown by a simple cal culation. Too bad I couldn’t lay on* In a letter. I can’t help wishing I could send you one. In wishing you herewith a Merry Christmas. He Wat Used te Jolts. From the Youth’s Companion.

PLANES MENACE TO GAME LIFE Sportsmen Asked to Report Violations of Law Against Plane Hunting Washington.,—The terrifying effect of airplanes on wild fowl is to great 'that if any general uae should be made of them In hunting, the result would be exceedingly disastrous, ac cording to the Biological Survey of the Department of Agriculture. Prob ably no ofher single method of pur suit of wild ducks and other game birds could parallel their deadly ef fect In reducing the number of wild fowl. j It Is for this reason that the Bio logical Survey has called upon all sportsmen and conservationists In terested In the maintenance of this country’s supply of wild fowl to gather and forward to It In Wash ington accurate Information con cerning such violations of law. greatest practical value In helping "This co-operation will be of the greaaest practical value In helping to conserve our wlld-fowl supply, and, owing to the small number of game wardens, who must cover a vast territory, Is much needed,’’ said E. W. Nelsort, chief biologist of the Department of Agriculture. Since the Federal law against air plane hunting became effective 19 cases have been reported, 6 of them having been reported during the past year. There have been 8 convictions In all and 8 cases remain undisposed of. In 2 cases true bills were not re turned and one case only was dis missed. CHICAGO DEPOT LIKE TEMPLE Monster Structure, Opening Feb. 15, Hasn’t Delayed Single Train in Building Chicago,—A new epoch In rail way terminal development will mark the opening of the sixty-mllllon-dol lar Chicago Union Station on or about February 15. Spreading out over a larger and larger area, the gray-limestone ter minal has continued to grow until, In Us massive style of architecture, It resembles an imposing temple of antiquity. From atop the bridge span ning the Chicago river it stands out like a new city. When the completed terminal swings open under auspicious cere monies, the ancient terminal building will be quickly demolished- The whole transformation, Including all work on the new terminal, will have been carried out without interference with a single train. This is just one phase of the unusual engineering skill. Three baseball diamonds could he laid out upon the great floor of the main waiting room. The concourse huiliding will have a fifteen-acre roof of glass, extending 1,400 feet beyond the main structu.p, to form the train shed. Steel umbrella train sheds, extending over several blocks, are almost finished. Several months ago most of the exterior, made of blocks from Indiana’s quarries, had been virtually completed. Parts of the terminal are now in operation, and other sections are be ing put into use as rapidly as pos sible. It had been hoped to climax the ten-year undertaking by opening the station Christmas day as a "Santa Claus gift to the city." But the date was foui.d to be premature.
