Documentary Proof of Idiocy.
“Look here, old chap, I'll give you
a valuable tip,” said the experienced

groom. “Don’t let your wife keep a
diary on the honeymen. My wife did
that, and now whenever we quarrel
she brings it out and reads some of
the idiotic things I said to her then.”

Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot reach the dl§
eased portion of the ear. There Is only one way to
cure deafness, and that Is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness Is caused by an Inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube Is Inflamed yon have a rumbling sound or Im
perfect hearing, and when it Is entirely closed. Deaf
ness Is the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal condi
tion, hearing win be destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten are caused by < atarrh. which Is nothing
hut an Inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for anv case of
Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured
by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars.fTee.

JOYS OF MATERNITY
A WUHAN'S BEST HOPES REALIZED
Mrs. Potts Tells Bow Women Should
Prepare for Motherhood
The darkest days of husband and
wife are when they come to look for
ward to childless and lonely old age.
Many a wife has found herself inca
pable of motherhood owing to a dis
placement of the womb or lack of
l strength in the generative organs.
Mrs. Anna Potts
Frequent backache and distressing
pains, accompanied by offensive dis
charges and generally by irregular
and scanty menstruation indicate a dis
placement or nerve degeneration of
the womb and surrounding organs.
The question that troubles women
Is how can a woman who has some fe
male trouble bear healthy children?
Mrs. Anna Potts, of 510 Park Avenue,
Hot Springs. Ark., writes :
Mv Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—
“ During the early part of my married life I
was delicate in health : both my husband and
I were verv anxious fur a child to bless our
home, but I had two miscarriages, and could
not carry a child to maturity. A. neighbor
who had been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham’s
A Vegetable Compound advised me to try it. I
[}. did so and soon felt that I was growirg
*S stronger, my headaches and backaches left
me, I had no more bearing-down pains, and
felt like a new woman. Within a year I
. became the mother of a strong, healthy
child, the joy of our home. Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound is certainly a
splendid remedy, and I wish every woman
who wants to become a mother would try it”
Actual sterility in woman is very
rare. If any woman thinks she is ster
ile, let her try Lydia E. Pinkham’u
Vegetable Compound and write to Mrs
Pinkham, Lynn, Mass. Her advice ia
free to expectant or would-be mothers.

The Diner's Pet Joke.
“I never do things by halves," re
marked Biffkins. and the waiter at ]
his elbow put on an expectant grin.
He had only expected a 50-cent tip—
maybe the gentleman would give him
more. “As I was saying,” said Biff
kins, pushing back his chair and ac
cepting his hat, “I never do things by
halves. Especially in tipping. I al
ways use quarters. Here you are.”—

Small Village; Small Pledge.
Here is an English story: A fac
tory foreman used to drink inordin
ately; afterwards he reformed, and
then there was a conspicuous relapse.
His employer rebuked him for not
sticking to his solemn agreement. But
the man, in good faith and with per
fect gravity, explained. “I only took
the pledge in a small village—quite a
small village, in Yorkshire.”

Cable Tolls to Japan.
It costs $1.76 a word to send a mes
sage to Japan; and, with war raging
in the far East, the cable tolls for war
news are something tremendous. But
as the people will have the war news
in connection with their morning dish
of Pillsbury’s Vitos, the cables are
kept busy day and night.
Drink Beer from Mugs.
Bavarians have long insisted that
beer is better and more wholeeyme
if drunk out of stone mugs than out
of glass. Dr. W. Schultze has now ex
amined the matter scientifically, and
has found that beer is made injurious
by a chemical process which dissolves
the oxide of lead in the glass.
Judge's Kind Admonition.
On one occasion Judge Dewey of
Boston had before him a couple of
girls charged with stealing ribbons
from wreaths on graves. As the evi
dence of their guilt was not satisfac
tory, he ordered their discharge, ac
companying it with this admonition:
“Girls, keep out of the cemeteries as
long as you can.”—Law Notes.
To Prevent Chapped Hands.
Many women who do their own work are
much annoyed in winter with chapped
hands. This may be avoided by using Ivory
Soap for dish washing and toilet purposes.
Dry the hands thoroughly each time after
they have been in water, and rub with a
little oatmeal-water or some good lotion.

Find Wealth in Bag.
Discovering a bag in the streets of
Sydney, Australia, a man took it to
the police station, where it was found
to contain gold and bank notes to the
value of £850, and subsequently a
hatless old man, a lunatic, who was
wandering aimless through the streets
was found to be the owner.

Honor the Laying Hen.
The Swiss village of Zodfingen, in
the Canton of Aargau, was decorated
with flags recently in honor of a hen
which had laid her thousandth egg.
Five adjacent villages sent deputa

serenaded the industrious hen.

Benefit of Iron in Water.
Bits of iron will prevent water from

Insist on Getting It
Some grocers say they don’t keep

have a stock on hand of other brands
containing only 12 oz. in a package,
which they won’t be able to sell first,
because Defiance contains 16 oz. for
the same money.

GOOD BLOOD FOR BAD
Rheumatism and Other Blood Dis*
eases are Cured by Dr. William*’
Pink Pill*.
•‘In the lead mines I was at work on my
knees with mv elbows pressed against
rock walls, in dampness and extremes of
cold,” said Mr. J. G. Meukel, of 2975
Jackson avenue, Dubuque, Iowa, in de
scribing his- experience to a reporter,
‘‘and it is not surprising that I con
tracted rheumatism. For three years 1
had attacks affecting the joints of my
ankles, knees and elbows. My ankles
and knees became so swollen I could
scarcely walk on uneven ground and a
little pressure from a stone under my
feet would cause me so much pain that I
wonld nearly sink down. I was often
obliged to lie in bed for several days at a
time. My friends who were similarly
troubled were getting no relief from
doctors and I did not feel encouraged to
throw money away for nothing. By
chance I read the story of Robert Yates,
of- the Klauer Manufacturing Co., of
Dubuque, who had a very bad case of
rheumatism. I decided to try Dr. Wil
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People, the
remedy he had used. In three or four
weeks after beginning to use the pills, I
was much better and in three months I
was well. The swelling of the joints
and the tenderness disappeared, I could
work steadily and for eight years I have
had no return of the trouble. My whole
family believe in Dr. "Williams’ Pink
Pills. Both my sous use them. We
consider them a household remedy that
we are sure about.”
What Dr.Williams’ Pink Pills did for
Mr. Meukel they are doing for hundreds
of others. Every dose sends galloping
through the veins, pure, strong, rich, red
blood that strikes straight at the cause of
all ill health. The new blood restores
regularity, and braces all the organs for
their special tasks. Get the genuine Dr.
Williams’ Pink Pills at yonr druggists’
or direct from the Dr. Williams Medi
cine Co., Schenectady, N.Y.
Victor Emanuel Monument.
Giuseppe Saeoni is dead, and the co
lossal Victor Emanuel monument in
Rome which was selected to build is
far from completed. ‘‘Petrified mega
lomania,” his enemies have called it.
It will probably be completed by G.
Koch, who. though a son of a German
painter, is himself an out-and-out Ital
ian. It was he who built the palace
of the Banca d’ltalia.
Storm in Swimming Bath.
In Munich, Germany, there is a
large bath where the sea is imitated
by means of sea salt added to fresh
water, and-an ingenious electrical con
trivance which beats the water at fre
quent intervals, causing big waves to
roll along the bath. The size of the
waves is regulated by the switch con
trolling the electric machine.
Satisfied With Seeing Smoke.
A smoker can do without dining and
wining, they say, but he cannot do
without smoking. A Swedish captain
during the seven years' war, deprived
of his beloved tobacco, filled his pipe
with straw, avowing that provided
only he could see the smoke rising
from his pipe beneath his nose he was
satisfied.
Facts and Proof.
Hulett, Wyo., Dec. 4th (Special)—
An ounce of fact is worth a ton of
theory and it is evidence founded on
facts that backs up every box of
Dodd’s Kidney Pills. The evidence of
people who know what they do. Mrs.
May Taber, highly esteemed resident
of Hulett, says:
“I know Dodd’s Kidney Pills are a
valuable medicine because I have
used them. I took seven boxes and
they cured me of a severe attack of
Kidney Trouble. They relieved me
from the first dose, and when I had
finished the last box I had no pain
and my Kidneys are now acting prop
erly.”
Dodd's Kidney Pills are now recog
nized all over the world as the great
est Kidney Remedy science has ever
produced. They cure Rheumatism,
Dropsy, Gout, Lumbago, Diabetes,
Urinary and Bladder Troubles,
Bright's Disease, and all disorders
arising from any form of Kidney Dis
ease. _

transfer Mr. Daly to New York as
passenger traffic manager of the New

Chicago post, to retire George Daniels,
general passenger agent of the New

TRACTS IN MANY LANGUAGES
Feats of Printing Done Here for Mis
sionary Work Abroad.
One of the most difficult of all pub
lishing tasks is accomplished by the
American Tract society, which prints
not Only tracts, but also books in na
tive African languages such as
’Mpongwe, Bulu, TJmbundu, Benga
and Fang. Inasmuch as these
tongues, though spoken by millions of
blacks, were not written—or, at all
events, were not written until recent
ly—the problem of rendering such
works as the “Pilgrim’s Progress” in
to their vernacular in printed form is
beset by many obstacles.
For the copy dependence must be
had upon the missionaries, who write
it out in typescript. It has to be sent
all the way to New York to be set up
ir, type, and, as a matter of course,
care must be taken that it shall be
as close to perfect accuracy as possi
ble.
The languages are not understood
either by the men who set the type
or by the proofreaders, and so the ed
itors, who are equally ignorant on the
subject, must follow copy slavishly.
As far as possible the typewritten
words represent phonetically the
spoken words as uttered by the na
tives.
Having thus translated their vocal
speech into print the missionaries
have taught the blacks to read their
own languages, an accomplishment
which has helped greatly in their
mental and moral elevation. They
have not only simple dictionaries, but
also primers illustrated with excellent
woodcuts.—New York Sun.
Too Thirsty to Stay Alive.
Some years ago, at the time Gen.
Wm. A. Bancroft was colonel of the
Fifth Massachusetts the regiment was
camped at South Farmingham. A pri
vate in one of the companies, named
Faught, was one day on guard. Be
fore going on post at 11 p. m. he
drank a number of glasses of rum
punch.
While on post he fell asleep, and
was found sleeping by the relief. He
was taken to the guard house, and in
the morning was brought before Col.
Bancroft.
The colonel said in a stern voice:
“Private Faught, do you realize that
it is a very serious offence to sleep
while on post? Why, if this were in
time of war,”. in his loudest tones,
"you would shot for sleeping on
post.”
“As I am very thirsty, sir, kindly
consider me shot.”
He then faced about and started to
leave. He was brought back, severe
ly reprimanded, and returned to the
guard house. It was very hard for the
officers present to hide their smiles
at the look on the colonel's face.
Cleveland and the Women.
When Grover Cleveland was presi
dent a young woman from Cleveland,
who had been a schoolmate of the
president's wife, was a guest at the
White House. A matter of large pub
lie moment was up for the president’s
decision, and Mrs. Cleveland and her
guest brought it up for discussion at
the breakfast table.
Their views were of the radical,
persuasive order, and were quite em
phatically expressed. Mr. Cleveland
listened with an amused smile behind
his newspaper. Finally the girl from
Ohio said to him:
“Now, Mr. President, you have
beard our views. Are you prepared to
indorse them?”
The president folded his paper and
arose.
“You girls,” he said, with a smile
“can beat me all to pieces in millinery
and dressmaking. But when it comes
to my end of the house, I feel under
obligations to do my own thinking.”—
New York Tribune.
War Novelty From Austria.
A simple, but effective method for
transporting infantry across rivers has
just been invented by Capt. Unger
mann, of the Austrian Technical Mil
itary Academy. The whole equipment
and clothing of the soldier is con
verted into a floating body, the out
ward covering of which is composed
of tent canvas and cloak. The rifle
is used as a connecting stay under
neath. A piece of thin cord, which
every Austrian soldier carries, serves
as a towing rope, and the soldiers
who can swim tow the bundles across
the river. The non-swimmers are also
towed over. Experiments carried out
at Ragusa and Trebinje under the su
pervision of the war office are reported
to have been entirely successful. The
new method costs nothing and in
volves only a small expenditure of
time and trouble.

Inconsistent Science.
“Did you like that scientific paper
on germs and baleful bacilli that I
read at the club?" said Ethel to her
companion as they entered a Lexing
ton avenue car.
“Indeed I did, dear. I was shocked
to know that almost every article is
covered with disease germs.”
“Well,” said the amateur scientist,
“every word I spoke about the danger
of infection is absolutely true.” She
fumbled in her pocketbook as she
spoke. “No, dear,” she added hastily;
“it’s my turn to pay the fares.” She
spoke rather Indistinctly because she
held a greasy, battered dime between
her teeth as she used her hands to
"lose her chatelaine bag.—New York

The Parson’* Explanation.
A Scots minister had forgotten to
bring his manuscript to the church

ing just say to you what the Lord has
put into my mouth, but I trust I shall
come out this afternoon better pro

South African Centenarians.
"A native centenarian died recently
in Natal,” says a South African news
paper. “He was Kwezi Mxixinyeki, of
the Nyalvosi clanship of the Celes,
under the chief Mshweshwe, and was
born when the Zulu potentate Chaka
was about five years old. in 1788. He
had served under Dingaan and Mpan
da. Kwezi was thus 117 years old.
His eldest sister is still living and her
age is given as 120.”
He Had Cause.
A Missouri man was arrested on the
charge of loud swearing. He proved
to the judge that he had used im
proper language because he had fallen
from the roof of a barn and been near
ly killed. The judge said this was a
valid excuse and dismissed the case.

Christian Science.
In the United States there are about
400 Christian Science churches, with
about 100,000 adherents. According to
Mrs. Eddy, its founder, the church is
making tremendous strides in popu
larity, in which respect it resembles
Pillsbury’s Vitos, the popular cereal

Qualified Simplicity.
The charm of the "simple life” no
doubt is great, but the first necessity
for its succes sis that it should be
made quite as comfortable as the com
plex life.—Ladies’ Field.
Every housekeeper should know
that if they will buy Defiance Cold
Water Starch for laundry use they
will save not only time, because it
never sticks to the iron, but because
each package contains 16 oz.—one full
pound—while all other Cold Water
Starches are put up in %-pound pack
ages, and the price is the same, 10
cents. Then again because Defiance
Starch is free from all injurious chem
icals. If your grocer tries to sell you
a 12-oz. package it is because he has
a stock on hand which he wishe= to
dispose of before he puts in Defiance.
He knows that Defiance Starch has
printed on every package in large let
ters and figures “36 ozs.” Demand De
fiance and save much time and money

Are You Tired, Nervous
and Sleepless?
Nervousness and sleeplessness are us
ually due to the fact that the nerves are
not fed on properly nourishing blood;
they are starved nerves. Dr. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery makes pure,
rich blood, and thereby the nerves are
properly nourished and all the organs of
the body are run as smoothly as machin
ery which runs in oil. In this way you
feel clean, strong and strenuous—you are
toned up and invigorated, and you are
good for a whole lot of physical or" mental
work. Best of all. the strength and in
crease in vitality and health are lasting.
The trouble with most tonics and med
icines which have a large, booming sale
for a short time, is that they are largely
composed of alcohol holding the drugs in
solution. This alcohol shrinks up the red
blood corpuscles, and in the long run
greatly injures the system. One may feel
exhilarated and better for the time being,
yet in the end weakened and with vitality
decreased. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical
Discovery contains no alcohol. Every
bottle of it bears upon its wrapper The
Badge of Honesty, in a full list of all its
several ingredients. For the druggist to
offer you something he claims is "just as
good ” is to insult your intelligence.
Every Ingredient entering into the
world-famed "Golden Medical Discovery"
has the unanimous approval and endorse
ment of the leading medical authorities
of all the several schools of practice. No
other medicine sold through druggists for
like purposes has any such endorsement.
The "Golden Medical Discovery" not
only produces all the good effects to be
obtained from the use of Golden Seal
root, in all stomach, liver and bowel
troubles, as in dyspepsia, biliousness, con
stipation, ulceration of stomach and
bowels and kindred ailments, but the
Golden Seal root used in its compound
ing is greatly enhanced in its curative ac
tion by other ingredients such as Stone
root. Black Cherrybark, Bloodroot, Man
drake root and chemically pure triple
refined glycerine.

CAPITOL BUILDINC
Peruna is known from the Atlantic
to the Pacific. Letters of congratula
tion and commendation testifying to
the merits of Peruna as a catarrh rem
edy are pouring in from every State in
the Union. Dr. Hartman is receiving
hundreds of such letters daily. AU
classes write these letters, from the
highest to the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor arti
san, the clerk, the editor, the statesman,
the preacher—all agree that Peruna is
the catarrh remedy of the age. The
stage and rostrum, recognizing catarrh
as their greatest enemy, are especially
enthusiastic in their praise and tes
timony.
Any man who wishes perfect health
must be entirely free from catarrh.
Catarrh is well-nigh universal. Peruna
is the best safeguard known.

A Letter from the Ex-Governor el
Oregon.
The Ex-Governor of Oregon is an
ardent admirer of Peruna. He keeps it
continually in the house. In a letter to
Dr. Hartman, he says:

The Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, O.:
Dear Sirs;—-I have had occasion to
use your Peruna medicine in my family
for colds, and it proved to be an excel
lent remedy. I have not had occasion
to use It for other ailments.
Yours very truly, VP. M. Lord.
It will be noticed that the Governor
says he has not had occasion to use
Peruna for other ailments. The reason
for this is, most other ailments begin
with a cold.
