THE TRADE IN OLD BOTTLES.
A New York Firm That Handle* Half •
Million a Day.
From New York Sun: Almost half
a million old bottles are handled every
day by a single firm In New York city.
Most of them are wine and beer bottles,
but there are also hundreds of bottles
used for catsup and other table sauces.
The mineral waters furnish a large
proportion of the fujl number. None
of these bottles Is washed or cleaned
by the firm that collects them, but
they must not be old and "gummy" or
they will not be accepted. They are
shipped all over this country, and a
good many of them are sent back to
Europe. Those reshipped across the
water are mostly ginger ale bottles
sent to Ireland, some beer or ale bot
tles sent to England, and whie and
liquor bottles sent to France. Of course
these are re-employed. The dealers
here say that the French bottles are
the best made. The English come next,
the American next, and then the Ger
man. Comparatively few bottles are
lost In transit, either on board cars
or In the collecting wagons. When a
wagon la loaded with cases of
“empties” the driver puts a straw
wrapper on each of the corner bottle#
at the end of the wagon. It doesn’t
seem as If this would be a very great
protection, but It does serve as A
slight buffer In case of passing rubs
and knocks. The bottle shops of New
York are not especially picturesque,
but in New Orleans there Is one which
has become noted. It Is visited by
most tourists, many of whom carry
away some squat, queer shaped liquor
bottle by way of aourvenlr. "The Bot
tle Man of Conti Street" owea his fame
to Mrs. M. E. M. Davis, one of New
Orleans’ literary women. Mrs. Davis
lives only a block or two from the
haunt of the bottle man, over in the
old French part of the city. When
ivugene r ieia vumea mere severiu
years ago Mrs. Daris took him around
to Conti street to see the bottle man
and bis treasures. Field and the bottle
man were mutually delighted over the
meeting. The shop Is a great high
sort of shed, reaching from the street
back 150 feet Into the block. It ia
piled with stack on stack of crates
full of empty wine bottles, while from
the celling hang rows of dusty demi
johns and jugs. There are shelves
occupied by a medley of quaint cor
dial bottles, blight green and blue, pot
bellied, flat-aided, eccentric, freakish
things. Field delighted In these
shelves, and used to poke around In
the dust and the shadows hunting up
new shapes, which he carried off to
add to the miscellaneous lot of stuff
he shipped home from there. But there
was one bottle with which he was es
pecially delighted. It was a brilliant
blue In color, wkh a very long, tbin
neck and a fat body, pressed Into a
four-sided shape. In tbe middle of
one side was a seal, stamped In tbo
glass. Every visitor in Conti street
nowadays hears about Field's visits,
and is permitted to gaze upon—or pur
chase—one of the Field bottles. After
his return to Chicago Mrs. Davis wrote
tbe poem, “The Bottle Man of Conti
Street,” and sent it to bim. Field re
plied in his usual happy vein, and
these autograph verses are among Mrs.
Davis’ treasures today.

fatally. Mrs. Nancy Flynu, wholivcs nsnr
Goshen, Indiana, survived such an attack
and her advice is worth hooding.
“In the fall of ’93,” she said, “I began to
to have trouble with my heart. There was
n sharp pain in my breast which Iwtine
rapidly worse. Tho doctor was puzzled and
put me under the influence of opiates.
Thenc sharp attacks followed one another at
Intervals, and I became weak and bail a
haggard look. I was constantly in pain,
seldom slept and bad no appetite.
“At tho end of two years I was confined
to my conch most of the time and the
doctors agreed that my death was only a
matter of a short time.
“One day 1 noticed in a newspaper an Item
A firrfow* 7/me, mv condition,
nnd when I had taken twelve boxes I wss
completely cared. ‘Those pills have done
for you what wa could not do,’ said ona of
mrjphyslrian*. ‘they have saved your life.’
‘Tbut was two years ago and my heart
has not troubled mo since. I believe I owe
; my life to Dr. Williams’ Pink Fill* for Fate
People, and 1 take pleasure in telling other*
about them.”
Among the many forms of neuralgia are
headache, nervousness, paralysis, apoplexy

THE ILLS OF 'WOMEN
And Hot7 I'm. Pinkham Helps
Overcome Them.
Mrs. Mary Boi.lihgkr, 1101 Marianna
St., Chicago, 111., to Mrs. Pinkham:
“ I have been troubled for the past
two years with falling of the womb,
leucorrhrett, pains over my body, sick
headaches, backache, nervousness and
weakness. I tried doctors and various
remedies without relief. After taking
two bottles of your Vegetable Com
pound, tlio relief I obtained was truly
wonderful. I have now taken several
more bottles of your famous medicine,
and can sny that I am entirely cured.”
Mrs. IIenby Dour, Mo. 8W Findley St.,
Cincinnati, Ohio, to Mrs. Tinkham :
“For a long time I suffered with
chronic inflammation of tho womb,
pain In abdomen end boaring-down
feeling. Was very nervous at times, and
so weak I was hardly able to do any
thing. Was subject to headaches, nlso
troubled with lcueorrhoca. After doc
toring for many months with different
physicians, and getting no relief, 1 had
given up all hope of being well
again when I read of the great good
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com
pound was doing. 1 decided Immedi
ately to give it a trial. The result was
simply pust belief. After taking four
bottles of Vegetable Compound and
using three packages of Sanative Wash
I can say I feel liko a new woman. 1
deem it my duty to announce the fact
to my fellow aufferers that Lydia
E. Pinkham’* Vegetable remedies have
entirely cured mb of all my pains and
suffering. I have her alona to thank
for my recovery, for which I am grate
ful. May heaven bless her for the
