I PQOPOOOOCOOOOOOOOOOOU LUMBAGO AND I SCIATICA The chief secret of comfort lies in not suffering trifles to vex us, and in cultivating our undergrowth of small pleasures.—M. Gerald. Purely Experimental. “Why in the world did you order a Welsh rabbit in this French place?” they asked her. “Of course, the cheese is about the same as you get every where, but how can you tell what a French Welsh rabbit will do to you afterward?” “I’m not afraid,” she informed them, ♦ placidly. “1 just want to see what sort of ragtime nightmare French it will speak.” Laundry work at home would b6 much more satisfactory if the right Starch were used. In order to get the desired stiffness, it is usually neces sary to use so much starch that the beauty and fineness of the fabric is hidden behind a paste of varying thickness, which not only destroys the appearance, but also affects the wear ing quality of the goods. This trouble can be entirely overcome by using De fiance Starch, as it can be applied much more thinly because of its great er strength than other makes. Tin Used in United States. The total consumption of tin in the United States for 1906 was 42,800 tons, with 2.132 tons in stock at the close of the year. The shipments from Bolivia show an increase of 3,000 tons, from Cornwall an increase of from 700 to 1,000 tons and from Australia an increase of 1,000 tons, making the total European and Amer ican supply for the year about 93,550 tons. _ WILLING TO LET HIM DIE. Stinging Message Sent by Farmer Worsted in Business Deal. In the old colony town of Scituate, Mass., once lived Deacon J-. who had a yoke of oxen he desired to sell. The news reached the ears of Farmer T-, who lived in another portion of the town, who was in want of a pair. So he visited the deacon, who met him writh a gracious smile and led him to the oxen, which were chewing their cuds and to all appear ances ready for any amount of toil. After some bargaining a difference of five dollars remained. Finally the deacon said: "I am old and feeble, and shall not live long, and five dol lars will be of no account," so the bargain was made. Farmer T— took the oxen home. They proved worthless, could not work, and had been heated. He felt provoked at being sold, and, seeing a person the next day who was going to the part of the town where the deacon lived, said: "You tell Deacon J- he need not live another d—d minute longer on my account.’’ SCIATIC JORTURE A Locomotive Engineer Tells Hov He Was Cured by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. Pain that seems almost unbearable Is a characteristic of sciatic rheuma tism. In some cases the pain is knife-like, sharp or shooting; in oth ers it is dull and aching. Sciatic* is stubborn in resisting treatment and the patient frequently suffers for years. This was the case with Mr Herbert E. Spaulding, a locomotive engineer on th© Cincinnati, New Or leans & Texas Pacific Railway, whose home is at Longview, Texas. ■’While running an engine some years ago," he says, “I fell off and A hurt my knee and spine and I have always considered this to be the cause of my illness. The sciatica took hold of me from my heel to the back of my head. The pain was the worst I ever suffered in my life and my leg and back were twisted out of shape. I was under a physician’s care for several months and for six months could not get out of bed. I also went to Hot Springs but came back In a worse condition than when 1 went. “It was when I was down in bed that I heard of the ease of a Mr. Allison, a much older man than my self. who had been cured of sciatica by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. I began taking the pills and soon was able to get out of bed. When I had taken six boxes I was able to work about the house and yard. I kept right on with the pills until I was cured and I have never had any return of the trouble. I have been running an engine ever since.” Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are sold by all druggists, or sent postpaid, on re ceipt of price, 50 cents per box. six boxes for $2.50, by the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y. RFADFDC of this paper de Ill/ni/bUO siring to buy any thing advertised in _ its columns should insist upon haring A what they ask for, refusing ail substi i tutes or imitations.

When did you leave home?” “Thursday.morning. 1 came straight I through. You're looking well.” “Yes. I'm feeling first rate. And you left Thursday morning! It seems an age since 1 came away.” "How long have you been here, now ?" "It'll be five years’the 16th of next month.” “As long as that? How time flics. Let s see—you've never been buck at all, have you?" "No. I've been expecting every summer to be able to get away for a few weeks, but something has always happened to upset my plans. How is everybody, anyhow?” "Oh, about the same. I suppose you know that Dave Simmons and his wife have parted?” "No! Is that so? Well! What was the trouble?" "Got tired of each other, I guess. Have and Abbie Uraniwell are to be married soon.” "Abbie Rramwell? Why, she mar ried Jim Hewlett." "Yes, but they were divorced over a year ago." "The dickens you say!" "Tom Decker's wife was mentioned as a corespondent in their case." "Fanny Deck—for heaven's sake! There wasn’t any truth in it, was there?” "I don't know. They kept it out of the papers. The Deckers are living apart, though.” . "By George! What next? Arthur Creston and Madge Burroughs were engaged to he married when 1 left. How are they getting along?” "They lived together about a year and a half. She's Frank Wentworth's wife now." "What! Well, I'm not so much sur prised at that. She and Arthur might have known that they’d never gef along together. What happened to Frank's first wife? Is she dead?” "No, she got a divorce and went on the stage. They say she's doing pretty well. Of course, you've heard about Billy Hemenway and his wife?” "They're not divorced, are they?” "I should say they were. She was married to Fred Reyburn last fall, and they say Billy and Fred's former wife, who. you remember, was Bertha Steele, are going to try their fortunes together." "Go on! You don't mean it? How is your—ah—how is Sam Davis get ting along? It seems to me that I heard somewhere not long ago that he had lost most of his money." "He's all right again. I guess he did drop a lot of it speculating, but he had investments that turned out very well, so he isn't hard up, hy any means. He married Abhie Willard after she and Joe were divorced." “Joe and Abhie Willard divorced? Whatever made them separate? They were the last people on earth that I'd have expected to have trouble." "I guess it was Joe's fault. He be came pretty gay after he got that money from his grandfather." “Who's he going to marry?” "He and Helen Bassett have been married for nearly a year." “Helen Bassett?" "Yes. Dick Bassett's wife, you know’. Dick let her get a divorce, and Joe Willard is said to have given him $20,000. I don't know how’ true it is." "Things seem to have been happen ing since I left. How is your—1 mean, how are the Spencers getting along?” "Do you mean Ed Spencer? He and his wife got divorced and she and Dick Bassett have since been married. They say Ed and Wallace Harper’s former wife are likely to pair ofT be fore long." "Is Wallace dead?" "Hardly. He's very much alive. He and Alice Carter were married three weeks ago.” "Who is Alice Carter?" "Why, you must know her. She was Johnny Booth's first wife. Re sumed her maiden name after their divorce.” "Great Scott! The Johnny Booths, too! How is your—ah—and so John ny's married again, too?” "Yes. He married Maud Rankin. There was a good deal of talk about him and her before Johnny and Alice separated.” "There was. eh? How is your—I— that Is—are you traveling alone?" "No. My wife's with me. How is your—ah—do you like it here?" "Yes, first rate. I didn't at the start, but I’ve become acquainted now, and things have been coming my way pretty regularly lately, so I'm very well satisfied. I'd like to have you and your wife come out to the house and see us. Can't you come thio eve ning?" it s mighty nice or you to ask us out. I'll be glad to go. and I think, my wife will appreciate it, too. Does voui wife like it here?” “Oh, yes; you couldn't get her to live anywhere else. She was born and reared here, you know. All her peo ple and her friends live here, and—” “Then you—that is—l hadn't heard “Yes. It was two years ago. Of course. I’d have felt differently about it if we d had any children, but—oh, well, that’s all past now. I'm glad you brought your wife with you. It'll be a pleasure to hear her cheery laugh again. You're here on business prin cipally, 1 suppose?" “No. we—i guess you don't qmte un del-stand. We are here on out wed ding trip.”—Chicago Record-Herald. Church Union in Canada. Forward steps are being taken by the Congregationalists, Presbyterians and Methodists in Canada toward church union.

The tree was 134 feet tall, measured five feet four inches on the stump, and at the height of 60 feet measured three feet in diameter. TACK THIS UP. Simple Advice Which May Prove ol Untold Value. At the first sign of Backache or pain in the region of the Kidneys, or weak ness and Urinary trouble, the follow ing simple prescription should be used: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Take a teaspoonful after each meal and at bedtime. Any good prescription pharmacy will supply these three ingredients at small cost, which can easily be mixed by shaking* well in a bottle. This is said to force the Kidneys to filter the sour acids and poisons from the blood, overcoming the worst cases of Rheu matism. Coldest European Winter. In the year 1814 the Thames froze and the English channel was for a time impassable because of icebergs. The coldest European winter on rec ord was that of 1708-1709. It began early in October. In 1740 also the cold was so intense that birds fell dead to the ground. THREE BOYS HAD ECZEMA, Were Treated at Dispensary—Did Not Improve—Suffered Five Months —Perfect Cure by Cuticura. “My three children had eczema for five months. A little sore would ap pear on the head and seemed very itchy, increasing day after day. The baby had had it about a week when the second boy took the disease and a few sores developed, then the third hoy took it. For the first three months i took them to the X— Dispensary, but they did not seem to improve. Then 1 used Cuticura Soap and Cuti cura Ointment and in a few weeks they had improved, and when their heads were well you could see nothing of the sores. Mrs. Kate Keim, 513 West 29th St..

It fur nishes a perfect background for all kinds of pictures, it throws them out in their correct proportions, and does not detract from their artistic value. The solid colored wall is also much better as a background for furniture, and harmonizes much more artistical ly with carpets and rugs than any other method of wall treatment. The less breaking up of color on a wall the more artistic it is. The most successful form of the solid colored wall is an alabastined wall. There is as much difference be tween tinted walls, as there is be tween shoddy and all-wool gowns. The shoddy gown holds its color for a few' days, while the all-wool keeps its color to the very last thread, so also in solid colored walls, there are shoddy walls and permanently colored walls which retain their color down to the very last particle. The ideal wall coating never rubs off. never flakes nor chips off and is always ready for a fresh coat. If there is wallpaper on the wall, soak it off with warm water, then go over the plaster after you have removed the paper with warm water to remove every trace of paste. Have the wall thoroughly clean for a clean wall cannot be built on an un clean foundation. If there are any particles of foreign matter adhering to the wall scrape them off with a putty knife. Then if there are any discolorations on the wall, size it with a material made from cheap varnish, thinned down with benzine and japan added for a drier, then cover your wall with your tinting material. Re sure your man uses a tinting ma terial mixed with cold water. If he comes to you and asks for warm wa ter, you can make up your mind that there is glue in the material which he proposes to put on your wall, and you can be certain that you are going to have a shoddy wall, for glue means shoddy. Glue means that it will hold its color long enough for the man to collect his bill and not much longer. Insist'on your tinting material being mixed with clear, cold water. Re sure that your wall is made from pure ma terials, then you will have a perma nent, artistic, sanitary wall. A wall that will be a “thing of beauty and a joy forever.” FOOLED THE PREACHER. A Doctor’s Brother Thought Postum Was Coffee. A wise doctor found out coffee was hurting him, so he quit drinking it. He was so busy with his practice, however, that his wife had to write how he fooled his brother, a clergy man, one day at dinner. She says: “Doctor found coffee was injuring him and decided to give Postum a trial, and we have used it now for four years, with continued benefit. In fact, he is now free from the long train of ills that follow cofTee drink ing. “To show how successful we are in making Postum properly I will re late an incident. At a dinner we gave. Doctor suggested we serve Postum instead of ordinary coffee. “Doctor's brother, a Clergy-man. sup posed it was old fashioned coffee and remarked, as he called for his sec ond cup: ’If you do preach against coffee, I see you haven't forgotten how to make it.’ ” This goes to show that well-made— fully boiled—Postum has much the flavor and richness of good coffee al though ii has an individuality all its own. A ten days’ trial will prove that it has none of the poisonous effect of ordinary cofTee, but will correct the troubles caused by coffee. “There's a reason.” Name furnished by Postum Co., Ltd., Battle Creek, Mich. FADED TO A SHADOW. Worn Down by^Five Years of Suffer ing from Kidney Complaint. Mrs. Remethe Myers, of 180 South Tenth St., lronton, O., says: "I have worked hard in ray time and have been exposed again and again to changes ,of weather. It is no jik wonder my kidneys fL gave out and I went <iOr a11 t0 pieces at last For five years I was fading away and finally so weak that for six months I couM not get out of the house. 1 was nervous, restless and sleepless at night, and lame and sore in the morning. Sometimes every thing would whirl and blur before me. I bloated so badly I could not wear tight clothing, and had to put on shoes two sizes larger than usual. The urine was disordered and passages were dreadfully fretiuent. I got help from the first box of Doan's Kidney Pills, however, and by the time I had taken four boxes the pain and Moating were gone. I have been in good health ever since." For sale by all dealers. 50 cents a box. Foster-Milburn Co.. Buffalo, N. Y. HE HAD TASTE IN VEILS. Unfortunate Admission That Made Trouble for George. She was standing by the mirror. He was buried deep in the sporting page. “George!” “Well, well! What is it now?” "IIow do you like my new veil?” “Oh. it is very pretty. Anything else?” "But how do you know it is pretty? Men don't know anything about veils.” 'You are very polite toward our sex. I would have you understand that I have a taste for veils.” “You have a taste for veils?” "Yes. I have tasted a dozen veils. That is—er—I mean I have—no, yes, I—what in thunderation do I mean? I—” “Stop! Not another falsehood, George Brown! You have been kiss ing some girl through her veil. You know the taste of veils, eh? You deceiver. I—” But poor George had fled. Stood the Test. Alleock's Plasters have successfully stood the test of sixty years’ use by he public; their virtues have never been equaled by the unscrupulous im itators who have sought to trade upon rheir reputation by making plasters with holes in them, and claiming them to bo "just as good as Allcock's.” Alkock's plasters stand to-day in dorsed by not only the highest medical authorities, but by millions of grateful patients who have proved their effi cacy as a household remedy. To Be Refilled. One of the suburbs of Chicago Is the site of a well-known school of theol ogy. from which go out each weekend many members of the senior class to try their voices as “supplies.” A passenger on a Monday morning train was surprised at the number of I hem who got off at the station.

WOMEN IN HOSPITALS Experiences of Mrs. Rcckwood and Miss Tierney MISS MARGARET TIERNEY MRS. CM AS. A. ROCK WOOD A large proport ion of the operations performed in our hospitals are upon women and girls for some organic trouble. Why should this be the case ? Because they have neglected them selves, as every one of these patients j in the hospital beds had plenty of warning in those dragging sensations, j pains at left or right of abdomen, backaches, nervous exhaustion, in flammation, ulceration, displace* ments,«and other organic weaknesses. . All of these symptoms are indica- j tions of an unhealthy condition of the j female system and if not heeded the penalty has to be paid by a dangerous operation. When these symptoms manifest themselves, do not drag j along until you are obliged to go to the hospital and submit to an opera tion—but remember that Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, made from native rootsand herbs, has saved hundreds of women from surgical operations. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compoundt has cured more cases of feminine ills than any other one rpmoilv. Snr»h lfvr.fom as t.hofoll mariner are constantly being received by Mrs. Piukham to prove oar claims.

A Knowledge of Forms, Knowledge of Functions and Knowl edge of Products are all of the utmost value and in questions of life and health when a true and wholesome remedy is desired it should be remembered that Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., is an ethical product which has met with the approval of the most eminent physicians and <£ gives universal satisfaction, because it is a remedy of Jy Known Quality, Known Excellence and Known Component Parts and has won the valuable patronage of millions of the Well Informed of the / world, who know of their own personal knowledge and from actual use that it is the first /' * and best of family laxatives, for which no extravagant or unreasonable claims are made. 1 his valuable remedy has been long and favorably known under the name of—Syrup of Figs—and has attained to world wide acceptance as the most excellent family laxative. As its pure laxative principles, obtained from Senna, are well known to physicians and the Well Informed of the world to be the best we have adopted the more elaborate name of—Syrup cf Figs and Elixir of Senna—as more fully descriptive of the remedy, but doubtless it will always be called for by the shorter name of — Syrup of Figs—and to get its beneficial effects, always note, when purchasing the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co. — printed on the front of every package, whether you call for — Syrup of Figs — or by the full name — Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna. . * ■ For Woman’s Eye Women’s troubles very often occur regularly at a certain time every month.
