MRS. EMMA FLEISSiHSli Suffered Over Two Tears—Health WaM /» a. Precarious Condition—Caused By Pelvic Catarrh. HEALTH AND STRENGTH RESTORED BY PE-RU-NA. Mrs. 'Emma Fleissner, 1413 Sixth Ave., Seattle, Wash., Worthy Treasurer Sons of Temperance, writes: “I suffered over two years with Ir regular and painful periods. My health was in a very precarious condition ana I was anxious to find something to re store my health and strength. •‘I was very glad to try Peruna and delighted to find that it was doing me good. 1 continued to use it a little over three months and found my troubles removed. “/ consider It a splendid medicine and shall never be without it, taking a dose occasionally when lfee! run-dowc. and tired.” Our files contain thousands of testi monials which Dr. Hartman has re ceived from grateful, happy women who have been restored to health by his remedy, Peruna.

Then again because Defiance Starch is free from all injurious chem icals. If your grocer tries to sell you • 12-oz. package it is because he has a stock on band which he wishes to dispose of before he puts in Defiance. He knows that Defiance Starch has printed on every package in large let ters and figures “16 ozs.” Demand De fiance and save much time and money and the annoyance of the iron stick ing. Defiance never sticks. Livery for Housemaids. Housemaids in livery are the latest Innovation in “smart" London houses.

HAD ALL HER FATHER'S SPIRIT Daughter of John Knox Inherited Sturdy Independence. "Of nature I am churlish, and in condition different from many,” wrote John Knox in 1543, but the churlish side of his character the great re former kept mainly for people of high rank, accustomed to deference, and in different or hostile to his aims. To others, writes Mr. Andrew Lang in "John Knox and the Reformation,” es pecially to women whom he liked, he was considerate and courteous, but , any assertion of social superiority aroused his wakeful independence. Rev. Henry Cowan, in his biography of Knox, says that the descendants of the great preacher inherited his inde pendent spir t, and gives this story of his daughter Elizabeth. The youngest. Elizabeth, married in 1594 the famous John Welsh, minister of Ayr, who was imprisoned and exiled on account of his opposition to the ec clesiastical policy of James VI. In 1621, when physicians recommended him to visit Scotland on account of his failing health, his wife personally applied to the king for permission. James ashed her who her father was. “John Knox.” she replied. “Knox and Welsh!” exclaimed the king. “The devil never made such a match as that!” “Maybe.” was the smart rejoinder, “for we never asked his leave.” The king said that her husband might return to Scotland if he would submit to the bishops. “Please, your Majesty,” replied the high-spirited daughter of Knox, ex tending her apron. “I would rather catch his head there.” English House Gardens. American children learn that Lon don is a center of trade with a dense population, and they grow up with the idea that it is a mart perpetually over hung with fog and smoke, says the London Telegraph. To have a private residence in New York city is a lux ury possible only to the rich, and none but a multimillionaire could live in a house with a garden. When the American -girl, therefore went to have tea with some friends iD moderate circumstances, she was as tonished to find them living in a large house with a little garden in front and a spacious one in the rear. Tea was served in the garden. Her mind reverted to a suburban house at home that had about as much land as this English one. The “back yard” was used as a drying place for clothes. The front yard was a smoothly clipped, flower-bedded lawn kept for show, so open to the street that it was of no use to the family. “No. it is not like home,” said the American girl wondering if everything in London had a garden or a terrace or a park. An Unimportant Detail. “How's Mary Ellen getting on?" asked one of the neighbors, when Mrs Austin returned from a visit to the house of a former resident of the vil lage. She fixed a keen gaze on Mrs. Aus tin. for rumors of Mary Ellen's domes tic troubles had reached the village some time before. “Why she’s got everything fixed up real nice," said Mrs. Austin, slowly “She has a good house and a garden and a cow, and some o’ the likeliest nens, and a couple o’ pigs, and-’ “Is it true that her husband has reg 'lar tantrums every little while?" per sisted the neighbor, who had small patience with Mrs. Austin’s point of view. “Well, well,” said Mrs. Austin, with some discomposure. “1 don’t see any need of dwelling on that. When folks have a good deal of livestock some o’ the critters is liable to be ailing now and then.”—Weekly Scotsman. Love Song. Love's for youth, and not for age. E'en though age should wear a crown; For the poet, not the sage; Not the monarch, hut the clown. Love's for peace, and not for war. E’en though war bring all renown; For the violet, not the star; For the meadow, not the town. Love's for lads and love's for maids, Courts a smile and flies a frown; Love s for love, and saucy jades Love love most when love has flown. Love a cruel tyrant Is; Slays his victims with a glance. Straight recovers with a kiss. But to slay again, perchance. Wouidst thou know where love doth bide? Whence his sharpest arrows fly? In a dimple love may hide. Or the ambush of an eye. Wert thou clad In triple mail, In a desert far apart. Not a whit would this avail: Love would find and pierce thv heart. —Thomas Nelson Page, in Scribner's Photographs Kite Birds. The kite, according to the ornitho logical authorities, is declared to be extinct and it is practically so. But a vigilance committee has neverthe less been formed in Wales for the protection of the bird. A photograph er recently traced one of the only pair of kites known to exist in South Wales to a cave in the mountains and with a lucky snapshot secured a photo graph. The home of the pair is being kept a secret. P.eturns to Ancestors’ Faith. Miss Grace Stephens, an American missionary iu Madras. India, writes home that Sooboonagam Animal, daughter of a. wealthy Hindoo prince, has abandoned Christianity, which she embraced ten years ago, and re turned to the faith of her fathers. Her conversion attracted much attention in the religious world, she being one of the few converts from among the high caste Hindoos. Beans Hold Bag Captive. When a Dover (N.

MEET END WITH JEST PATIENTS IN CONSUMPTION CAMP LAUGH AT DEATH. Inmate Cured by the Treatment De clares His Associates Were the Most Hilarious Crowd He Ever Mixed With. At Liberty Falls, in Sullivan county, is an outdoor station for “lungers,” which is patronized by several hun dred persons. The patients, when un der cover at all, are beneath canvas, and each one has a small tent to which he retreats in case of rain or snow, or when, as more frequently happens, his condition renders it im possible for him to arise. When this stage arrives they go to bed in the tent awaiting death. A racing writer of international reputation has been a patient there for nearly a year. He went at a time that consumption had not fully devel oped in his ease, and the other day he returned to the city on a visit, looking like an Indian, the sun hav ing burned his skin to a deep cop per color. He said the community was the most hilarious he had ever associated with, and that while more than fifty per cent of the people there were marked for death, having come too late to receive any benefit for the outdoor treatment they were the happiest body of men and women in the world. They find cause for laugh ter in everything, and the ludicrous side of any subject always appeals to them first, and their appreciation of it is hung on a hair trigger. “Even death itself furnishes the subject for a pathetic jest,” said the returned patient. “The reason is that the outdoor life awakens their spirits, even when it cannot restore the health that is wrecked beyond all help. A case happened the other day. A fellow died in his tent, which was the last one in the row. In accord ance with custom, the body was left till night, so that its removal might not be witnessed by the community. In the opposite tent was another poor fellow in the last stages of the dis ease. When the attendants came to remove the body of the dead man they entered the wrong tent and be gan to dispose of the living. “‘Wait a little,’ he whispered; ‘it doesn't matter much—only a few hours. First come, first served. The chap across the way is the dead one Lay him out—then come back. I'll be ready for you. Good joke on you! Good night.’ "When they came in the morning he, too. was dead, with a smile on his lips, and the whole colony was finding mirth in the gruesome story. What He Meant. Mn Griggsfield was a man who meant well, but was unfortunately ad dicted to the habit of saying the wrong thing at all times and in all circumstances. An acquaintance of his had suffered severe injuries in a railway wreck, including a broken nose, the loss of three or four teeth, and a gash across one of his cheeks: but his hurts were not serious, and he was soon on the street again, some what disfigured, but in good working order. One of the first men to greet him after his recovery was Mr. Griges field. who grasped him cordially by the hand and exclaimed: “Hello. Williams! I understand you have been pretty badly hurt. I am glad to see you so much improved.” Later, when he reflected upon he understood why Mr. Williams respond ed to this greeting with such a queer smile.—Youth’s Companion. Some of John Bull's Expenses. An idea of the cost of running a great nation may be gained from the statement that England's balance sheet for the last fiscal year shows an expenditure of considerably more than three-quarters of a billion dol lars. The exact amount was £151, 769,000. To meet this revenues were raised amounting to £153,707,000, leaving a surplus on hand of £1,938, 000. Of this vast expenditure £66, 200,000 went to the army and navy, £924,000 for dispensing justice and £15.161.000 was spent on education. There is one entry under expenditures which reveals the magnitude of the empire’s business. It is that for “sta tionery and printing,” and shows that three-quarters of a million pounds was expended on this item alone dur ing the past year.—Leslie’s Weekly. Death.

Old-time hunters in Great Britain complain that fox hunting is no long er the sport it was because the foxes are treated too artificially.

ALCOHOL IN MOST MEDICINES. indispensable Requisite in Compoundi ing of Some Prescriptions. It is of course true that some pro prietary medicines contain alcohol and nearly all liquid medicines prescribed by physicians contain it No honest man will defend the sale of intoxi cants under the guise of medicine; but every honest man should protest against a system of wholesale denun ciation born of malice, or ignorance of pharmaceutical principles, and fos tered by selfish interests. It is as sumed that alcohol is the cause of in temperance; but there is a great dif ference between alcohol and whisky. If a substitute for alcohol could be found for use in the manufacture o: medicines, its discoverer would render a great service to the profession o? pharmacy and the science of medi cine, for alcohol is a very expensive ingredient and a cheaper substitute would be gladly accepted. Unfortun ately the word alcohol, in the minds of many people is associated exclu sively with bar-rooms, drunkenness and all forms of degradation and vice. This is due to a lack of knowledge by the general public of the fact that alcohol is an indispensable requisite in drugs, tinctures and fluid extracts. All fluid extracts and tinctures on the druggists’ shelves contain from 20 to 90 per cent of alcohol; and of all liquid medicines prescribed by phy sicians more than 75 per cent contain it in large proportions. Alcohol is required to preserve or ganic substances from deterioration and from freezing, and it is also re quired to dissolve substances not solu ble in water, while it contributes to their preservation when dissolved. Diluted alcohol is largely employed in fluid extracts; and whenever a greater strength of alcohol is required as a solvent (for extracting medicinal prin ciples) the medicine is of such a char acter as to preclude a large dosage; and for this reason preparations, even if containing 50 per cent or more of alcohol, are practically less intoxicat ing than beer. In such cases the character of the medicinal constituents is such as to absolutely forbid the taking of the medicine in any wa7 except in very small doses and at stated intervals only. To assume that any great number of proprietary med icines are used as beverages is the veriest absurdity.—Exchange. Famous Bow Bells.

STRENGTHEN THE STOMACH Or. Williams’ Pink Pills Real'y Cura Indigestion Instead of Merely Relieving Symptoms. There are plenty of remedies by which you can relieve for the time heartburn, pain and gas on the stomach and can smother nervous sensations and induce artificial sleep. You can humor your stomach by giving it predigested food. But when you take vonr next meal all /our trouble begins afresh. There is only one sensible thing to do. Strengthen the stomaeh and do away with the necessity for drugs and arti ficial foods. The best remedy ever found for this purpose is the one that was used by E. E. Stroug, of Capleville, Shelby county, Tenu. * “For years,'' he states, “ I suffered greatly from indigestion. I tried many different remedies and some of them would relieve me for a time, but the trouble always came back. About six mouths ago I had an unusually severe attack, and while I tried everything I had ever heard of, I found that none of the ordinary remedies would reach the iifficulty this time. “ One day I read in a Memphis paper how Dr. Williams’Pink Pills had cured a Michigan woman, a sufferer from chronic dyspepsia of a most stubborn type. I then tried the same remedy and it proved just as successful in my case. I took oulv three boxes, and was cured. I have not had the slightest symptoms of indigestion since.” The tonic treatment has a sound prin ciple as its basis, and abundant success in actual use. Multitudesof casesthat had defied all other remedies have been cured by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. The pills actually make new blood and strike at the root of all diseases caused by bad blood. They contain no harmful stimulants or opiates. Every dyspeptic should read, “ What to Eat and How to Eat.” Write the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenec tady, N.Y., for a free copy. Eighty Per Ceut.
