WOMEN IN BUSINESS.
(From the Free PresR, Detroit. Mich.)
A prominent business man recently ex
pressed the opinion that there Is one thing
that will prevent women from completely
filling man's place in the business, world—
they can't he depended upon becaute they
ore sick too often. This is refuted by Mrs.
C. W. Mansfield, a business woman of 58
Farrar St., Detroit, Mich., who says:
“A complication of femalu ailments kept
me n wake nights and wore me out. I could
get no relief from medicine and hope was
slipping away from me. A young lady in
my employ gave me a box of Dr. Williams
Pink Pills for Pule People. I took them
ami was able to rest at night for the first
time in months. I bought more and took
them and they cured me as they also cured
icveral other people to my knowledge. I
think that if you should ask any of the
druggists of Detroit who are the best buyers
of l)r. Williams’ Pink Pills they would’sey
the young women. These pills cortainly
build up the tioi’vnus system and many a
young woman ow es her life to them.

A FAMILY* FAILING.
The struggle with Heredity.
The Right Side of the Color Line.
Br ' To heredity, to the transmission of |
traits from sire to sou. we owe most of the
ro»sibilities of growth and development,
f each newlvborn being started outauew,
|& without the'force of heredity the level
roHV of life might be expected to be that of the
digger Indian or Bushman. Naturally bad
I traits descend like the good. Peculiarities
V. * of feature, excentricitiea of speech and
manner, birth mnrks, etc., are handed
down just as surely as manual dexterity,
,kv • physical beauty, 'mathematical ability.
and the mental and moral qualities in
b'1 general. A curious example of this de
’ • acent of family traits is furnished by Mrs.
i Maggie Pickett. Canton. Oa , in whose
* family gray hair was hereditary, bhc
‘ writes:
HSH* "Gray hair is hereditary in our family,
fe.i As long as 1 can recollect.my mother's hair
'.t bas been gray. About twelve years ago,
I ay hair bega'u to show signs of turning.
pK I resolved to try Ayer's Hair Vigor, and
* after using it only a few times my hair
V‘?l was restored to ita natural color I still !
» use thia dressing occasionally, a bottle
; lasting me quite a while; aud though over
i'glj. forty years of age, my hair retains its1
youthful color and fullness. To all who
nave faded aud gray hair. I would heartily
recommend l>r Ayer s Hair Vigor."—Mrs.
Ifsuuia I'utsTT, Canton. Ga.
There is no shame in grav hair, but there
may be some sadness, because it is un
timely, and out of season. Gray hairs are
a crown of honor to the aged, but to the
young they are a stigma. There is no need
to be gray in youth. Grayness comes from
a deficiency of the coloring matter which
gives the hair its natural tint. This color
ing matter can be supplied artificially
and is so supplied by Dr. J. C. Ayer's Hair
Vigor. It is by supplying the lacking
pigment that Dr. Ayer’s Hair Vigor re
stores gray or faded hair to its original
color. Beyond this, it makes the hair
f;row, gives it gloss and softness, stops
t from falling, removes dandruff, and
cleanses the scalp. Mrs. C. M. Ayres,
Mount Airy, Ga., writes:
“About three years ago. my head became
full of dandruff, which cuused great an
noyance; after a time the hair began
farting out. The use of Dr. J- C. Aver'a
Hair Vigor stopped the hair from falling
out. and made the scalp clean sod healthy.
—Mrs. C. M. A \ ueh, Mount Airy, Ga.

RETURN OF MASTER.
A man of middle height, with an old
fashioned goatee beard and a perplex
ed, wondering air. He attracted less
attention in the Chantrey room by rea
son of the fact that most of the visitors
were young couples absorbed in the
study of each other. He looked at
these young pairs with twinkling eyes,
and nodded approvingly.
"No change there!” he said with a
sigh of relief.
He went into the Foster room and
looked with interest at his own por
trait on the walls. One of the engaged
couples came up and looked over his
shoulder.
"Who’s he seeposed to be, George?”
asked the lady carelessly.
"Chap o’ the name of Dickens,” re
plied George, with the readiness of one
for whom the world has no secrets,
"Charles Dickens.”
"I've ’eard the name,” said the young
woman. “What was he eelebrited for?”
"Writing chap,” said George.
"Ever read any of his works?” asked
the lady persistently. The man with
the old-fashioned beard put his hand
to bis ear.
"Know some of the titles of ’em,”
answered George evasively.
At the glass-covered cases was some
thing more flattering. These, spelling
out the blue-inked manuscript of
"Dombey and Son,” and reading with
greater ease the bolder handwriting
of "Oliver Twist,” a party of Ameri
cans talked excitedly. In their en
thusiasm they desired to buy the
books; they summoned a thoughtful
policeman and asked him how many
thousand dollars bis people would re
quire for one of them, anyway. The
thoughtful policeman shook his head
slowly and said, with respect, that the
tUUUU/ WUU1U Uttve IU UC I/Kuuua
hard up before It parted with one of
them. This only increased the Ameri
can’s admiration.
‘‘They’ve forgiven me for ‘Martin
Chuzzlewit,’ ” said the master himself.
"I'm glad."
He went out of the museum presently
into Brompton road, and stepped into
a ‘bus that carried him to Piccadilly
Circus. He seemed dazed at the white
glow of light that met him there; at
the high buildings bordering the tri
angular space.
"This is not much like London,” he
said. "Not Hire my London.”
Leicester Square gave him more as
tonishment, and he hurried into a
court and tried to think. Two matron
ly women were bragging of their chil
dren; the eldest boy of one was doing
something heroic in the sixth standard
at the board school; the other, a pale
woman, had a boy who was being look
ed after by the poor law guardians,
and, the mother declared, was as heal
thy as healthy, and about to go to
Kneller Hall. "You'd never believe he
was a son o’ mine,” said the white
faced woman.
"I wonder," said the master, "I won
der now whether I helped in that!"
An idea occurred to him. "Drury
Lane!”
He knew the way quite well. Past
the Garrick Club and along the south
"GO FRY YOUR FACE!’’
side of Covent Garden, and eventually
Into Drury Lane.
"Now,” he said, "I shall be remind
ed of the old days. Where Is the
yard In which Jo-?”
It seemed that Drury Lane had. In a
sense, been to a dentist to have itself
put right, and that the dentist had ad
vised Drury Lane to have them all out
on one side and to buy a new sot, for
there were huge gaps where buildings
bad been pulled down, gaps hidden by
Joyful boardings. The old graveyard
had become a clean, neat asphalted
playground for children.
"Changes!” he Mid, with only a
touch of sadness, for he was not really
sorry. "Changes!”
He watted and listened, as had al
ways been bis manner, to tbs talk of
the people. It waa some time before
he could understand them, for they
were talking the new Cockney langu
age, and when he asked civilly what
county they were from they counseled
him to go home and fry his face. The
advice might have been well Inten
tioned. but It was not. In view of all
Ihe circumstance*, practical, and he
•trolled up lo Holborn and across In
Uloumsbury. Kseept that this district
wore *n accentuated lodging-house air,
tksru was Utile of change. A book

him neatly and bowled him on to the ,
pavement.
"Not hurt, sir. I hope.” said one.
"Not hurt, thank you,” he replied,
panting, "but somewhat startled. Lon
don la In a greater hurry than It waa In
my day.”
"We all have to push." said the other
young fellow, "nowadays. Can we
give you any further assistance, sir?"
"Gentlemen,” he said courteously, "I
cannot trespass on your goodness.”
“You look tired,” said the first youth.
"I am tired.”
"Come Into our club and rest for a
bit. We are literary men—or think
we are—and there will be some others
there.”
It was 11:30 now. They escorted
him to the club and took him up the
broad stairway into the smoking room.
The room was filled ^th the scent of
cigars and the sound ? voices, and ev
eryone seemed to be talking about
books. The master, comfortable In an
armchair near the fire, listened anxi
ously. The members were all young
ish men—mpn who were probably in
their bassinettes at the time that his
spirit flew away from Gad’s Hill and
from this earth. His two hosts left
him with an excuse to Join the heated
debate. Current reputations formed
the subject of the conference, and. In
order to save time, everybody spoke at
once. Many were talking about them
selves.
•‘They’ve forgotten me,” said the
master, regretfully.
Indeed, this did at first appear to be
the case. Presently, however, he
caught his name, and he half rose In
the rhair. No infant author waiting
for his first notice could have been
more nervous than he was at that mo
ment.
wen," a loud-voiced man at the fire
place had said In speaking of a modern
writer, 'Tv* heard him referred to as
a modern Dickens."
For a moment there was a hush, but
only for a moment. Then there rained
down upon the loud-voiced man a
swift, deafening torrent of genuine re
proof. Eagerly the master listened.
How dared any one (the young mem
bers said excitedly) compare the man
with Dickens? There was no one
nowadays high enough or broad enough
or strong enough to justify comparison
with him. Dickens stood alone! Dick
ens always would stand alone! Dick
ens was the master of them all!
"Gentlemen!” cried one of the young
men earnestly, "I give you ‘Charles
Dickens!* God bless his memory and
keep it always green!”
The clock struck 12. A happy-faced
old-fashioned man stole quietly out of
the room.—Illustrated London News.
A BROKEN FRIENDSHIP.
The Feud Will ll»» ■■ Long as Do the
Former Friends.
Mickel and Prindy had been close
friends for years. This closeness re
fers to their tastes and fraternal rela
tions, not to their local habitations.
Their friendship grew and strength
ened with years, says the Detroit Free
Press. They thought it a sacrifice of
many pleasures and advantages that
they did not live in the same vicinity.
After talking the matter over together
they concluded to buy two large lots
side by side, build two houses alike
and so live that they could enjoy each
other by running back and forth, talk
ing from one front porch to the other,
or exchanging thoughts over the back
fence. They looked forward to an ideal
existence that would have Its vitality
and perpetuity assured in their mu
tual admiration. For three months
their pretty dream was realized. Then
came bickerings, recriminations,
threats, a complete severance of do
mestic relations and a law suit. Then
both sold out at a sacrifice, and they
are as far apart as the size of the city
will permit. "What in the world was
the matter that two such sensible old
gentlemen should have an Irreconcil
able difference?” "Mickel’s fad was to
have a fine garden. Prindy devoted
his spare time to the raising of chick
ens.” “Oh, I see. The feud will live
as long as they do.”
Why We Forget Name*.
Many persons are especially forget
ful with regard to names—as of ac
quaintances or some familiar object.
I>r. Bastlan, In discussing such effects
recently, quoted with approval this
explanation: "The more concrete the
Idea the more readily is the word used
to designate It forgotten when the
memory falls. We easily represent per
sons and things to ourselves without
their names. More abstract concep
tions, on the contrary, are attained
only with the aid of words, which
alone give them their exact shape In
our minds.” Hence verbs, adjectives,
pronouns, adverbs, prepositions and
conjunctions are more Intimately re
lated to thought than nouns are, and
ran be remembered when nouns, or
names, slip from the mind.
