1 Give Warning of Approach of Hore Serious Trouble. Do yon experience fits of depression with restlessness, alternating with extreme irritability, bordering upon hysteria? Are your spirits easily affected so that one minute you laugh, and the next fall into con vulsive weeping? Do you feel something like a ball rising in your throat and threaten ing to choke you; all the senses perverted, morbidly sensitive to light and sound; pain in the ovaries, ami especially between the shoulders; sometimes loss of voice; nervous dyspepsia, and almost continually cross and snappy, with a tendency to cry at the least provocation ? If so, your nerves are in a shattered, condition, and you are threat ened with nervous prostration. Undoubtedly you do not know it, but in nine cases out of ten this is caused by some uterine disorder,and the nerves centering in and about tl» organs which make you a woman influence your entire nervous system. Something must be done at once to restore their natural condition or you will be prostrated for weeks and months perhaps, and suffer untold misery. Proof is monumental that nothing in the world is better for this purpose than Lydia E. Pink ham’s Vegetable Compound; thou sands and thousands of women have written us so. How rirs. Holland, of Philadelphia, suffered among the finest physicians in the country, none of whom could help her — finally cured by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. “Dear Mrs. Pinkham : — For over two years I was a constant suf ferer from extreme nervousness, indigestion, and dizziness. Menst mat ion was irregular, had backache and a feeling of great lassitude and weak ness. I w'as so bad that I was not able to do my own work or go far in the street. I could not sleep nights. “I tried several splendid doctors, but they gave me no relief. After taking Lydia E. PinklianiN Vegetable Compound I soon began to feel better, and was able to go out and not feel as if I would fall at every step. I continued to take the medicine until cured. “I cannot say enough in behalf of Lydia E. Pinkham’s medicine, and heartily recommend all sutieiing women to try it and ttnd the relief I did.” — Mrs. Florence Holland, 622 S. Clifton t?t., Phila delphia, Pa. (Jan. 6, 1902.) Another case of severe female trouble cured by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, after the doctors had failed. “Dear Mrs. Pinkham: — I was in poor health for several years. I had female trouble and was not able to do my housework alone. I felt, tired, very nervous, and could not sleep. 1 doctored with several doctors. They doctored me for my stomach, but did not relieve me. I read in your book about your medicine, and thought I would try it. I did so, and am now cured and able to do my work alone, and leel good. I was always very poor, but now weigh one hundred and fifty pounds. “ I thank you for the relief I have obtained, and I hope that every woman troubled with female weakness will give Lydia E. Plnkliam’s Vegetable Compound a trial. I have recommended it to many of my friends.” — Mrs. Maria Bowers, Millersville, Ohio. (Aug. 15,1901.) Will not the volumes of letters from women made strong by Lydia E. Pinkliani’s S’egetuble Compound convince all of the virtues of this medicine? How shall the fact that it will help them be made plain ? Surely you cannot wish to remain weak, and sick, and discor/ aged, exhausted with each day’s work. You have some derange ment of the feminine organism, and Lydia E. Pinkhanj’s Vegetable Compound will help you just as surely as it has others.

Mass >14 Columbus Are, : : I LOVER BECAME VICTIM OF HIS OWN SVCCESSFVL TRICK : A Boston man came across the fol owirg Incident in the life of the late 3en. Butler the other day, and it seems such an example of the truth jf that old saying, ‘ The boy is father )f the man,” that it is worth repeat mg. In his youth, so the story goes, Ben, with two other unfortunates, sought !he hand of a maiden in northern Maine. The race was very even, and for a long time the issue was in doubt. But one day the maiden told the Ihrce rivals that, if they would all come on a certain evening, she would give them her answer. The future lawyer, fearing that he did not stand so mgh in the maiden's graces as the others, saw a chance for the exercise of his wit. Strategy j alone would win the day. On one side of a river lived the ! damsel, ar.d about opposite on the other side boarded the anxious lov ers. The river was bridged at but one point, and that was In the center of the village, nearly a mile from these houses. But some workmen had fell- j ed a log and thrown it across the ; stream, and on this Bridge of Sighs the lovers were wont to wend, their1 [way. Ben started a little early on the j I fateful evening, and took w ith him a ; pail of soft soap. Crossing the log j backward, he carefully greased it We- I hind him, and then triumphantly Mi tered the fair one's abode. Hardly had the conversation be gun, when through the open window steps were heard on the opposite, bank, then a creaking, as if someone had stepped upon the log, and then a splash, accompanied by muffled epi thets of rage and vexation. Ben smiled and winked contem platively at his brand new !a\ender trousers, while the young lady looked surprised, but said nothing. 'tune passed, ami no one came. Presently (here was the sound of an other approach, and the previous process was repeated, saving this time the "blanket.v-blanks" were of a more vigorous character and longer continued. Ben winked the other eye, and gazed complacently at the gay white vest which completed bis careful “get-up.” As to what followed in the parlor we ate not definitely Informed, but suffice to say at a late hour Ben issued forth happy and eluted at his success, bearing tho promise of his fair one’s hand. So happy was he that all recollec tion of the log’s slippery condition had escaped his mind, and. oblivious to all else save his good fortune, he sallie i out upon the log. But. alas, "pride gooth before des truction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.” I«to tho river he went, new Uvue*re, vest and all. and tradition talh- us that tho atmosphere, alieauy murky, on Ben’s issue from the riv er’s depths was of such a character as to rival Daate’s ’’Inferno."—Bos ton Herald. r. i i! PATHOS IN CAREERS OF j I HORACE GREELEY AND FATHER ! t t Are we so soon forgot when we ire gone-? The Tribune on Saturday cave prominence to a telegram from Corry. Pa., which ran thus: "Fire arly to-day destroyed the old Horace 3reo!cy homestead, six miles from here. In this house Mr. Greeley ^pent ttie early years of his life." All the years of Horace Greeley's life up lo the twentieth were spent in New Hampshire and Vermont. After ho had tal.cn to the road r.s a ".tour" printer lie visited his father, who had removed to the place near Corry. Pa., and worked on the farm there, a little, in the intervals of hit* typographical tasks. Not only was the place in no sense Greeley's early home, but he never really lived there. It was so little associated with his name that his friends and admirers, who knew his Yankee beginnings well, never connected him with it at all. It was. however, long the home of that sturdy but unsuccessful and pa thetic laborer and citizen. Zacchcus Greeley, his father. If there ever was a man hopelessly of the can t get along class, it was this unfortun ate descendant of the New Hamp shire Scotch-Irishman. Industrious and willing, but a failure in every thing he undertook. Zaocheus was hounded for debt from place to pla"e and would doubtlessly have been turned into a hopeless tramp if it had not been for his innate virtue and patience. Of course, the worst of his troubles ended when his son Ho race came to man's estate; although the boy. with one unsuccessful news paper venture following another, long promised to duplicate his father's career. Naturally. Horace managed to ease his father's declining years. He was ever a dutiful sou. Perhaps ills own career instanced, as much as his father's, the helpless ness of that thistleblow, man. before the winds of late, in some ways bril liantly successful, in other and im portant ways dismally unsuccessful, possessing characteristics and abili ties that made him feared as well as loved, rising almost to the pinnacle of earthly honor for an American. Greeley feit himself at last scorned hy his countrymen, and died of a broken heart. In Horace Greeley there was a good deal of his badly buffeted father after all. The farm place near Corry may be remembered for Zaeeheus Gree ley’s sake; and of course, poor Zae < heus would never have been remem bered at all but for his gifted and nobie son.—New York Mail and Kx prcrs. j QUEER PROPOSALS MADE BY • VICTIM OF CUPID’S DART i-0 • • # ♦ ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ ♦♦ Charles Kruger's proposal in mid air s, perhaps, unique. He was a trapeze performer, and his act with the lady :o whose hand he aspired was nightly vociferously applauded. One night, while he held the fair artist swinging above a eea of upturned tares, after she had made her flying leap, he whis kered a hurried offer of marriage. This he lady acrepted, and they finished their performance an engaged couple. Very novel was the method em ployed by a young Australian of mak ing known his aspirations to the girl of his choice, whom he had met on a visit to the old country. On his return to the antipodes he procured a parrot, which, having been thoroughly coached in its role, was dispatched as a present to the young lady. "Will you marry Dick?” asked Polly, insinuating ly. "Will you marry Dick?’ Its fair jwner wired but one word to the in genious donor. “Yes.” The Rev. J. M. Mather of Manches ;er tells an amusing story of an under taker who, falling in love with a lady whose husband he had burled, pro posed to her after a decent interval. V only to find that he had been fore Mailed by a luckier man. in due course, however, he buried husband No. 2, and this lime, having allowed but a week to elapse, again made an offer of his hand and heart. Alas! he was once more too late; but not cast down he bided his time, and when capricious fate deprived the lady of her third mate, made his position siire by proposing immediately after the funeral. Not alone in comic opera has a pro posal been made from the bench. Strongly reminiscent of the judge in Trial by Jury" was the Arkansas func tionary who not long since presided over a court of justice where a man was being tried for assault. The pros ecutrix. a lady of considerable per sonal charms, detailed her woes, and concluded by saying that she went in bodily fear of the prisoner, who was her brother. Whereupon the judge re marked that lie would, if she accept him. afford her such protection as a husband might. The lady thanked him and gladly closed with his offer.—Tit Bits. NOTHING POETIC ABOUT MAN. How the Fond Dream of a Devoted Wife Was Rudely Dispelled. Some men are never poetic; others lose their poetic sense with the en croachment of years. At least that is the opinion of a matron now past middle life. ‘ The only trouble with a man is that he loses the poetic side bf his nature as the years roll by,” she remarked. “Now, only yesterday my husband took on the far-away look. I must confess it mailed the delightful days when he. put all his talents into telling me how charming I was and how all his life was wrap ped tip in me, saying it as constantly and with aa many enchanting varia tions aa even a woman could desire. For a long time I watched him in silence. Then at last, urable longer ( to bear the suspense, I softly asked: ‘What are you thinking about dear?’ ‘I was wondering,' he answered, 'if I shouldn’t be quite safe in leaving off my winter underwear.’ Now, wasn’t that poetic! Yet that same iconoclastic man is brave enough to complain at times that I have changed.” He Doesn’t Worry. Duffy—Meeker’s a philosophic a) son of <hap, isn't he? Guffy—in what respect? Dufly—Why, he is the husband of a famous woman, you know, but his ob scurity doesn't seem to trouble him in the least. American Dentists in Demand.

Robert Jlreder ick, who resides at 1915 Vir ginia st.. in San Antonio, Tex., tells an e x p e r ienre that will in terest every reader; It shows as well that Doan's cures are lasting cures. She says: “Up to the early part of the year 1902 l had been a sufferer from Kidney troubles for many years. The pain In my bark became worse and worse until it was a daily burden that Interfered with every duty. I was much afflicted with headaches and dizzy spells and was unable to rest well nights. In May, 1902, after using Doan's Kidney Pills I made a state ment for publication, declaring that they had entirely relieved me of the pain In my 1 t < k. I have since then had a year’s time in which to study the effects of the medicine, sml while 1 have had slight tenches of the trou ble since, the use of the pills has al ways driven away all signs of the dis order end I hate become convinced of the fact that ihe first treatment was practically permanent in its ef fects. and I know that a box of Doan's Kidney Pills kept on hand are a suffi cient guarantee against any suffering from the kidneys or back. I should advise every sufferer to take Doan's Kidney Pills and 1 know that they will be surprised and pleased with the re sult."

It is an old golfing joke about the clergyman who was ready to give up the ministry for the game, but how about giving up the prime ministry? To that pitch of devotion Mr. Halfour came very near pledging himself the other day. Addressing the Sundridge Park Golf club, he said that he could only trust in being granied the leis ure—"I won't say by what means” (evidently, we infer, leaving office)— "to take full advantage of the oppor tunity" the club has afforded him In making him an honorary life member. Many can play the game as well as Mr. Balfour, but few can philosophize about it so satisfactorily. It “leads to no abuse,” he maintained in the address referred to, and then, mount ing with his theme, he added: "It is capable of no excess!” That earnest golfer whom his wife caught at 2 a. m. practicing putting on the billiard taule will thank the author of the "Foundations of Belief” for stating the truth, without a particle of excess. Eskimos’ Sealskin Church. The Eskimos possess the most re markable place of worship in the world, it was a sealskin church. Forty sealskins were stretched over a little framework, and in this tent, 18 feet by 12 feet, services were held every Sunday. But the church came to an untimely end. One hard winter the Eskimos’ dogs, being half famish ed. dined on the sealskins, and only the frame was left. The Eskimos have now erected a dog-proof taber nacle. Saved Hit Life. Whitehall. III., June 8th.—Mr. Lon Manley had Bright's Disease and after his home doctor had treated him for some time he finally told him that he could do nothing more for him and that he would Burely die. A friend who had heard of what Dodd s Kidney Pills had done in cases of Kidney Trouble, advised Mr. Manley to try a treatment of this remedy. He did so and everyone was sur prised and delighted to see an Im provement in a very short time. This improvement gradually kept on as the treatment proceeded, till now Mr. Manley is well. He says: "The doctor said he had done all he could for me. He gave me up. A friend advised me to take Dodd's Kidney Pills, and in a few weeks I was nearly all right again. "I am not dead, and can truthfully say that I feel better to-day than I have for years. Dodd’s Kidney Pills are a wonderful remedy and I will always praise them and recommend them to everyone suffering as I did.” Mr. Manley's recovery has caused a profound sensation, as no one ever thought he would recover.
