In this workaday world few women

is not constantly demanded of them
in their daily life.
Mrs. Pinkham makesa special appeal
to mothers of large families w'hose

intelligent aid.
To women, young or old, rich or
poor, Mrs. Pinkham, of Lynn, Mass.,
extends her invitation of free adviee.

A NURSE'S STORY.
A Grmlntte of I.nkr«lila Ilonpltal, t*k«
Geneva, Telia an Interesting
Experience,
Teshtlgo, Wis., Jan. 26, 1901 -(Spe
cial.)—One of the most popular nurses
that ever graduated from the Lakeside
Hospital, I,ake Geneva, is Miss Lillian
Dreeee, of this place. Miss Dreese is
the Vice Templar of the Independent
Order of Good Templars, and organist
of the Rebeccas of Peshtigo. During her
twelve years' experience as a trained
nurse she has had many opportunities
for observation, and her opinion in all
medical health matters 13 held in very
high esteem by the thousands who
have learned to know and love her. In
speaking of her experience she says:
“'During my twelve years as a
trained nurse I have often observed
how many different physicians give
their patients Dodd's Kidney Pills in
cases of Diabetes and Kidney Trouble.
About three years ago I myself suffered
some months with a weakness and con
tinual congested condition, and I de
cided to try what the Pills would do for
me. I soon found that they built up
the affected parts and restored har
mony to the entire system, and al
though I often lose much sleep and
rest while attending severe cases, I
find that 1 was never in finer health
nor had more endurance than since I
have used these marvelous Pills.”
Clergymen say they are good, Sena
tors and Congressmen have added their
evidence as to the wonderful curative
properties of this Medicine, hundreds
of physicians recommend them and use
them in their daily practice. The most
skilled trained nurses advise their use
and use them themselves, while tens of
thousands of sick and suffering people
are being cured every day by Dodd's
Kidney Pills. They should cure you.
They will cure you. Try them.

TRAINS bicyclists.
O- I. Tlokurd's Method* of Handling
Track Itldcr*.
There ia probably no other cycle rid
er today who la so versatile aa ia O.
L. Pickard, trainer of Johnnie Nelson
and Johnnie Lake, now team mates.
Pickard rides in the races, trains h.s
men, attenus to the motors, and builds
training quarters or cycle tracks wuh
equal facility. In his positiun he at
tends to everything, from cutting down
a motor frame to wiring a motorcycle
complete, or building a new b.cycie. Ho
rides the motor, eiiuer on the front or
rear seat. He knows the cycle and
the motor tandem, as he knows every
thing else, thoroughly. Hus work was
responsible for much of the succiss of
Nelson during the past season, for he
attends to every detail, and allows
nothing to go undone. Many have culled
Nelson lucky in winning several hard
races, forgetting that it was the fact
that a second motor was always kept
ready and ■waiting to pick him up, or
that a second wheel was always un
der the hands of this trainer, and ready
to be rushed to him at any point
around the track. In live races Nel
son punctured, but be won all five
contests. His extra wheel was not in
the dressing room at 6uch times, un
der lock and key, but was waiting for
him at the point where he dismounted.
That was not good luck, certainly. The
extra motor for Nelson was not on the
stand, and cool, but was circling the
track, aud at all times the riders were
watching Pickard for a signal, under
instructions from him. The fact that
they picked up their men so quickly
and neatly, was not good luck. A
man of the caliber of Pickard is hard
to find, and when a rider has found
him he is certain that unless In the
hardest kind of luck he will have an
even break for the money.—Chicago

MISSION OF TONGUE.
Art In Literature and Ueautj of Ei
prennlon.
Literature is art. It is art whose
crude material is language, as the
sculptor’s material is marble, or as the
potter’s is clay. Its mission in the llist
place is so to shape its material that
form and beauty may emerge. The day
has not passed wherein the grace of
words fitly spoken has power to quick
en and inspire human life, nor has
Spencer’s dictum. "For pleasing words
are like the magic art,’’ lost in reality
any of its value, despitet the chroni
cler, the intelligencer and all the apos
tles of the matter of fact. It cannot be
denied, however, that a practical age
has had its effect. Men certainly do
hesitate frankly to confess that in their
own usage language is used as an
artistic material and subjected to ar
tistic treatment. There is apparently
a feeling that the confession would
involve something demeaning to the
content of thought. Rhetoric is in bad
odor—chiefly the name. In the schools
they try to hide it under the name of
"English.” There never was, however,
in all tho days of our civilization, a
more widespread and certain demand
for what is called "good English," or
a more perfect appreciation of what is
said to be “well written.” Rhetoric
as a name has fallen into discredit, be
cause it has come to be associated with
tinseled phrase and empty words. But
this is no rebuff to the art. Every ma
terial of the arts, from ivory to wood,
has 8omeetime been misused as tinsel.
The empty display of material is not
art; it is child's play.—Atlantic
Monthly.
PRESENCE OF MIND.
Ragman Milken Scene |n Detroit wit™
W»if«ii Afire.
The ragman blew a mighty blast and
then entered to see if there were any
old clothes for sale. After he had pur
chased $5 worth of goods for 50 cents,
he went to the front and there let out
a yell that turned the lady of the house
deathly pale and caused the hired girl
to fall down the cellar stairs. Explan
ation came later. The perambulating
merchant is troubled with cold feet.
To counteract this affliction he used an
old iron kettle for a stove with paving
blocks for fuel. He kept it in the front
end of his wagon, and when he came
out his whole cargo was afire. After
the yell he made a flying leap into the
rickety wagon, thrashed the dejected
looking horse into a semblance of ani
mation, and went up the street creating
a bigger sensation than Ben Hur’s
chariot race. Shouting boys and
barking dogs were In the train, and all
the elder heads coincided in a belief
that the man who was thrashing his
horse, shouting in a foreign tongue,
who fell through a broken seat as he
made the corner, his head and heels
being all of him in sight, was crazy.
But he was not. His presence of mind
was to be envied by many a states
man, for he pulled up in front of a
hose house and the laughing fire lad
dies soon conquered the conflagration.
Black, scorched, half-drowned and gaz

Tenrher* Commend the Geograph; Lit
erature of “Overland Monte.'*
As an evidence of the efficiency of th©
Union Paciflc management the princi
pals of public schools are constantly
applying to this road for maps, paibph
lets descriptive of the territory it trav
erses and data on the history and
building of this famous transcontinen
tal line.
Upon this phase of school work
many of the principals of the public
schools declare there is no text so
available as that of the Union Paciflc,
the principal artery of traltte and in
dustrial life in the great west.
The principal of one of the largest
public schools in the state of New
York writes: “These books are used
in all georgraphy classes from year to
year until worn out. The children
talk at home with their parents over
what they learn about the Union Pa
ciflc railroad and the country through
which it goes, and the publications
fill a dual role, viz.: that of advertis
ing mediums and that of educational
Instructors. ,
As a matter of fact, the mere build
ing of tho “Overland Route" was a
great engineering triumph in Rself,
but the war of the renelllon demon
strated the construction of the road
was a necessity. A United States his
tory which dealt with the great west
would be poor indeed If it did not re
count the historic efforts of many pm>
lic spirited men from Whitney to Abra
ham Lincoln (and others since) to or
ganize and carry through to comple
tion this great national highway.
Tho recent irrigation congress held
in Chicago illustrates the value of the
missionary work of this great road.
Until the Mormons conveyed the
waters from the mountain streams of
Utah and distributed them over tho
valleys and table lands thero was no
progress made in tho west In the mat
ter of irrigation. In fact it was hardly
thought of until the Union Paciflc took
the matter up and urged It upon set
tlers of the west.
Typographical maps anti reading
matter descriptive of the country and
a synopsis of irrigation laws are being
turned out In profusion for the en
lightenment of the public generally.
The Union Pacific’s history of the
nation’s new possessions (“Our New
Colonies”), descriptive of the Hawa
iian island became so popular that the
public schools of the country, appre
ciating the value as an adjunct to his
tories and geographies in use, made
great demands for this publication,
and It has been largely adopted as a
test book on this subject.
Other publications which have been
issued from the advertising department
of this road are descriptive of the re
sources of Nebraska, Kansas, Colorado,
Wyoming and Utah, and territory trib
utary to the Union Pacific. Thousands
of these have been printed and sent
broadcast over the United States and
Europe, used as advertising mediums
for inducing settlers to come west.
They have been effective in this, as
thousands of the business men and In
vestors have come solely on account of
descriptive matter contained in the lit
tle volumes, and the facta therein con
tained.
One book that has attracted particu
lar attention is “Some of Wyoming’*
Vertebrae Fossils.” This is descriptive
of the great burying ground of Wyom
ing, where lie the bones of the thou
sands of great animals that roamed
over the western hemisphere when it
was unfit for the habitation of man.
This publication has been read by men
of all classes and has formed the sub
ject for innumerable lectures by the
professors in the colleges of the east.
Instead of merely using bill hoards
and dead walls for calling attention to
the running of trains the advertising
department of the Union Pacific has
followed the plan of putting out at
tractive reading matter, thus getting
the books before the public and mak
ing them valuable additions to the li
brary and the household.—The Chicago
“Chronicle,” December 9th, 1900.
Share* Public Schools' Honors.
The Passenger Department of the
Union Pacific is in receipt of a letter
from Superintendent C. G. Pearse in
viting it to share in the honors be
stowed upon the Omaha public schools
at the Paris exposition. As is well
known, the Omaha schools wero award
ed a gold medal for excellence of tho
showing made by their method of
teaching geography. The most Im
portant part of the exhibit consisted
of a set of illustrated publications and
maps showing the sources from which
geographical material and Informatioh
are obtained. Superintendent Pearse
acknowledges that great credit Is due
to the Union Pacific Passenger Depart
ment, which furnished many of the
publications and maps for the Paris
exhibit.—Omaha “Bee," Dec. lltb, 1900.
Following is an extract from her
letter: "If you could only be here
this winter morning and see for your
self you would no longer doubt me.
Roses are blooming in our front yard
and all nature is as far advanced in
this lovely American summerland as
it will be in your cold eastern home
