All manner of extravagant expressions are possible when
ft woman's nerves are overwrought
The spasm at the top of the wind pipe or bronchial tubes,
"ball rising in the throat," violent beating of the heart,
laughing and crying by turns, muscular spasms (throwing
the arms about), frightened by the most insignificant occur
rencesare all symptoms of a hysterical condition and se
rious derangement of the female organs.
Any female complaint may produce hysterics, which
must be regarded as a symptom only. The cause, however,
yields quickly to Lydla . IMnkham's Vegetable Com
pound, which acts at once upon the organ afflicted and the
nerve centers, dispelling effectually all those distressing
symptoms.
Mrs. Lewis Says: ! Feel Like a New Person,
Physically and rienUlly."
" Dear Mrs. Pinkham : I wish to speak a good word for Lydla E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. For years I had ovarian trouble
and suffered everything from nervousness, severe headache, and pain in
back and abdomen. I had consulted different physicians, but decided to
try your medicine, and I noon found it was giving me much relief. I con
tinued its use and now am feeling like a new person, physically and mentally,
and am glad to add one more testimonial to the value of your remedy."
Mas. IL H. Lewis, 2108 Valentine Ave., Tremont, Now York, N. Y.
Writing to Mrs. Pinkham is the quickest and surest way
to get the right advice about all female troubles. Her ad
dress is Lynn, Mass. She advises women free. Following
is an instance :
Mrs. Haven's First Letter to Mrs. Pinkham.
"Dear Mrs. Pinkham : I would like your advice in regard to my
troubles. I suffer every month at tirao of menstruation, and ilow so much
and for so long that I become very weak, also get very dizzy. I am troubled
with a discharge before and after menses, have pains in ovaries ro bad novae
times that I can hardly get around, have sore feeling in lower part of bowels,
pain in back, bearing-down feeling, a desire to pass urine frequently, with
pains in passing it; have loucorrhoea, headache, fainting Brails, ami some
times have hysteria. My blood is not in good condition. Hoping to hear
from you. I am," Mrs. Emma Haven, 2508 South Ave. , Council bluffs, Iowa.
(JuneS, 189.)
Mrs. Haven's Second Letter.
" Dear Mrs. Piskuam : I wish to express my gratitude for what your
medicine has done for me. I suffered for four years with womb trouble.
Every month I flowed very badly. I got so bad that I could hardly do my
work. Was obliged to sit or lie down the most of the time. I doctored for
a long time, but obtained no relief. I began using your remedies I.ylia
E. Plakham's Vegetable Compound, Blood Purifier, Sanative Wash
and Liver Pills and now feel like a new woman." Mas. Euua Haven,
1308 Booth Ave., Council Bluffs, Iowa. (Feb. 1, 1900.)

Navlag 1,2150.000 la Gold from tstoaan
ahlp St. I'au.
When the big American line steam
ship St. Paul ran agrojnd In a dense
fog on the Jersey beach, near the lower
end of liOng Branch, before daylight
oo January 25, 1896, in the cargo was
$l,2r,0,000 in gold, consigned to a Arm
in New York. It was essential that
this should be landed. Arrangements
were made with the Merritt-Chapman
Wrecking company to have the strand
ed liner hauled off. She and her cargo,
including the gold, were heavily In
sured. After it was found that It was
going to be very difficult to float the
big ship the consignees of the gold,
who needed It in their business, ap
pealed to Captain Clark as Llyod's New
York agent to have It landed. It re
mained aboard the vessel three days;
the fact of It being there rendered the
underwriters liable for a heavier tax
in the event of the vessel being float
ed. Naturally the American line dil
not make any strenuous efforts to have
the bullion discharged, and Just as
naturally Lloyds were anxious to get
it off as quickly as possible, for in the
event of a storm arising and causing
tre destruction of the ship the gold
would have added so much more to the
loss of the underwriters. Captain
Clark chartered a steamer and offered
to take charge of the gold and land it.
Thereupon the captain obtained a
promise that the gold would be landed
immediately. Thus the underwriters
were relieved of the further risk and
expense of floating the stranded ship.
The gold was transferred to the lighter
Haggerty down a sagging chute-suggestive
stretch of canvas in bags, kegs
and boxes. Twelve men armed with
revolvers guarded the treasure as It
was transferred from a pier to a truck
and taken to a vault in Wall street.

JAMES MADISON IN YOUTH.
Scotch School master Named Donalilaon
Gave Him Ilia Hart.
James Madison, fourth president of
the United States, was born at Port
Conway, Va., March 16, 1751. His fa
ther was a planter in moderate circum
stances, and James was the eldest of
a family of twelve. The boy's first
education was received at a school
kept by a worthy Scotchman, named
Donaldson. His progress was remark
able and encouraged his father to give
his son a college education. Young
Zvladlsou entered Princeton college and
was graduated iu 1772, remaining a
year after to make a study of Hebrew.
On his return home he devoted himself
to teaching his brothers and sisters,
all the time pushing his own studies.
In history and constitutional law he
was especially well versed, and these
acquirements served him well in his
public career. Early In 1776 he was
appointed a delegate to the state con
vention which met In May, at Wil
liamsburg. This convention's duly was
to Instruct the Virginia delegation to
the continental congress in regard to
the declaration of independence. Three
years later young Madison was a dele
gate to congress, and from that time
he held many important public offices.
In 1809 he was elected president of
the United States. He served during
one of the most critical periods In thu
history of the country while the sec
ond war with Great Britain was in
progress. At the close of his second
term as chief executive Madison re
tired to his estate at Montpelier, Va.,
where he peacefully passed the last
twenty years of his life with his be
loved books and friends. He died there
June 28, 1836.
Hloomera for Housework.
A recent advocate of dress reform
for women says that her advice, If fol
lowed, will rob house cleaning of much
of Its horror. Bloomers and blouses
are, she contends, the only rational
dress for a woman who Intends to
tacklo tho house-cleaning problem.
Long swishing petticoats and feminina
fripperies have their timo and place;
but If a woman wants to climb ladders
and wrestle with carpets and wield
broom and dust cloth effectively, lot
her take off her corsets and skirts and
don a bloomer costume of washablo
material. Dcnlm, says the oracle,
makes serviceable and effective bloom
ers; and, if this material Is too heavy
for a blouse, a thinner material, har
monizing in color with the denim, may
be used. The blouse should be finished
with a soft rolling collar, which will
leave the neck muscles free. It is ad
visable, too, to end the sleeves just be
low the elbow with a turned-back cuff,
so that tho wrists shall be left free.
This Is also recommended as a prac
tical morning costume for servant
obliged to do rough work. One can
fancy a maid or mistress, trim, slen
der and attractive, who would be a Joy
both to herself and to the beholder,

This is the address given in an order
for Dodd's Kidney Pills received and
filled by the Dodd's Medicine Company
of Buffalo, on April 16th. This unique
direction means that to reach the sick
people of Iceland, the parcel must
travel to New York, then to London,
Eng., then northwest to Greenland, to
be landed Anally, on the lonely Island
at the edge of the Arctic Circle. This
is a pointed illustration of how United
States goods find their way to
the remotest corners of the earth.
America today, produces better medi
