WORKING WOMEN ' 1 Their Hard Struggle Made Easier Interesting State ments by a Young Lady in Boston and One in Nashville, Tenn. All women work ; soma in their homea, tome in' church; And some In the whirl of society. And in stores, mills and shops tens of thousand are oa the nerer-ceaaing treadmill, earning their dally bread. All are subject to the same physical , laws ; all suiter alike from the same physical disturbance, and the nature of their duties, in many eases, quickly , drifts them into the horrors of all ; kinds of female complaints, tumors, , ulceration, falling and . displace ments or perhaps - Irregularity or suppression, causing backache, ner vousness, irritability and lassitude. They especially require an invigorat ing, sustaining medicine which will strengthen the female organism and enable them to bear easily the fatigues Of the day, to sleep well at night, and to rise refreshed and cheerful. Bow distressing to see a woman struggling to earn a livelihood or per form her household duties when her back and head are aching, she is so tired she can hardly drag about or Stand up, and every movement causes pain, the origin of which is due to some derangement of the female or ganism. Miss IT. Orser, of 14 Warren ton Street. Boston, tells women how to avoid such suffering ; she writes : Dear Mrs. Pinkham: ' I sufficed misery for several yesrs with female irregularities.

Said by Their Representative Coun trymen to Be Capable and Industrious. Signer Pietro Isola has a project to supply American farmers with Italian help, reports the Boston Globe. Ita lians," he said, "were never appreciat ed in this country. Illiteracy is not ig norance; if it were, there would be little of it among Italians. "They are expert farmers in respect to the climate of their own country. They understand all grains well, and in fruit culture -they" are far "ahead o most Americans, especially in graftlnr, I know one who has acclimated the fig? tree, not with the purpose, at first, ol making, the fig tree a commercial suc cess here, although it is comlns to that. "These Italian farmers are asking if there is not something for them to do in America besides digging in the streets and sewers. At a recent meet ing of grangers I unfolded this suDjec", and it was taken up with enthusiasm, with a promise to do all possible to induce the farmers of New England to employ the sons of Italy. They arc not drunkards; they are intelligent ami they are faithful. "The farmers fear the difficulty of language; but they employoAer- for? eieners Poles. French and others " without trouble, and the Italians learn more readily than either, and besides they understand the language of ges tures better than any others. "As the Chinese were excluded, the farmers of California began to look about for the next best, and they found them In Italians, and now they are scattered half over the state, more than one?tialf the inhabitants of So mona county being of that race. "There is no better farmer on earth than the Italian intelligent, industri ous and faithful to the last degree. . If he comes into New England the benefit will be not so much to him as to the farmer. "Anyone, whether he be a farmer, a fcommon laborer or ' anything else, makes a mistake if he opposes the Ita lian farmer. He would restore the idle farms, as no one else can. "If ever there was an undiscovered country of farm lands in the world, that country is Massachusetts. People pre struggling in their crude way with hay and corn to get a yield or ?5 to an acre, while the Italian would coas from the willing soil a fortune." MOVEMENT OF A GLACIER, One a Kile Long in Southern Sock; ies Shifted. Twenty-Seven y Feet in a Year. It had long been supposed that no true glaciers remain in the Rockies south of Wyoming, a supposition now known to be incorrect, says Junius Henderson, in Harper's Magazine. North of Long's Peak two ice fields have been described and referred to as glaciers by men whose determinations are entitled ..o consideraole weight, though on the whole they parta,ke more of the nature of neve and are so considered by some geologists.- This difference of opinion is entirely ex cusable on the ground that the divid ing line between neve and glacier is indistinct, "t'ie one passing Into the other by inse.-sible gradation." How ever, explorations carried on in the last five years have brought to ligh, an ice stream which is so distinctly a glacier as to leave no chance for q dispute as to its character. It has been visited by experienced geologists, mapped, photographed and thoroughly, studied. Arapahoe glacier is about a mile long and is situated amid scenery as inspiring as any in the southern Rock ies. It occupies an amphitheater or glacial cirque upon the east side of the Arapahoe Peaks, the peaks and their thin, sharp, serrated connecting ridge forming the semi-circular rim of the cirque, the ridges running eastward from the north and south peaks form ing the walls of the ancient glacial valley, The highest point on the rim of the cirque is 13,700 feet above sea level. - No measurements were necessary to convince our first exploring party that the ice was moving. To the student of glacial phenomena the evidence on every hand was easily read as a print ed page and as convincing as a mathe matical demonstration, but it remained, to determine the rate of movement; Consequently, on a later visit, we set. up the instruments on the granitic north wall and placed a line of zinc tablets across the face of the ice. Re-j turning exactly one year later, we found that the tablets had moved in bmounts varying from 11.15 feet at a point 300 feet from the edge, to '27.7 feet at a point near the center. Mountain Invades Town. Faith or something else is removing it least one mountain in the Rhymney valley, ulamorgansu.re, Wales, which Is slowly advancing towards the vil lage of Troedyrhiew. Although the harden of the village inn has been kompletely swept away, the inn itself, fcvhich is between the mountain and the gajden, is intact. The explanation is that it was practically rebuilt some time ago on a solid bed of rock. Near the inn is a belt of woodland in which all the trees have developed a pro nounced droop. Many opinions are ex pressed as to the cause of the slide Mining operations, some say, are re sponsible, while others attribute it to quicksand. Mammoth Stork. . The adjutant, or marabout, a tall bird of India, of the stork species, will swallow a hare or a cat whole. It stands five feet high, and the expanse of Wlng3 la nearly 15 feet. ' CAN'T STRAIGHTEN UP. Kidney Trouble Causes Weak Backs and a Multitude of Pains and Aches. Col...R. S. Harrison, Deputy Mar shal, 71S Common St., Lake Charles, La., says: "A kick from a horse first weakened my back and affected my kid neys. I became very bad, and had to go about on crutches. The doctors told me I 1 had a case of chronic rheuma tism, but I could not believe them, and finally began using Doan's Kid- ney Pills for my kidneys. First the kidney secretions came more fr.ely, tlien the pain left my back. I went and got another box, and that com pleted a cure. I have been well for two years." Sold by all dealers,' 50 cents a box. Foster-Mllbarn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. A Feminine Jab. - "I'm told," said Miss Knox, "that your husband, under the Influence of wine at the dinner the other night, de clared he had 'married beauty and brain.", v "Well, well!" , exclaimed Mrs. Bridey; "how nice!" - - "Nice? Aren't you going 'to investi gate? Evidently he's a bigamist." RUNNING SORES ON LIMBS. Little Girl's Obstinate Case of Eczema , -Mother Says: "Cuticura Rente , 1 dies a Household Standby." Y . "Last year, after having my little girl treated by a very prominent physician, for sn obstinate case of eczema, I resorted to the Cuticura Remedies, and was so well pleased with the almost instantaneous relief afforded that we discarded the physi cian's prescription and relied entirely on the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint ment, and Cuticura Pills. When we commenced with the Cuticura Reme dies her feet and limbs were cover ed with running sores. In about six weeks we had her completely well, and there has been no recurrence of the trouble. We find that the Cuti cura Remedies are a valuable house hold standby, living as we do, twelve miles from a doctor, and where it costs from twenty to twenty-five dol lars to come up on the mountain. Mrs. Lizzie Vincent Thomas, Fair mount, Walden's Ridge, Tenn., Oct. 13. 1905." " A Calliope in Church. In a small village in Iowa the con gregation of one - of the churches de cided to purchase a pipe organ. There upon one venerable - member raised terrifie opposition. He became excited. He denounced the scheme as unholy and monstrous. ' "But, Undo John," said one young lady, "how do you know so much about pipe organs? I didn't know you had ever seen one. "Well, perhaps I hadn't ought to talk so knowingly," admitted the ob jecting member, - "seeing as how I never saw but one myself." "And where was that?" was asked. "Down to Council Bluffs in a circus parade." Arbitration doesn't always work. Sometimes the dove of peace is mis taken for a clay pigeon. Mr. Saphedde "I aw really cawnt believe the things I cawn't understand, don't you know." Miss Pert "What a terrible skeptic you must be." warn IUiAilaSvine. Ky.' ot every How She Always Knew. AH alone on the hilltops lived Han nah Jane Sprigglns, and a lonely life she led, this ancient maid. Much to the wonder of the good people of the village of Medbybemps, she- was never at a loss for news, and when neigh bors called with stray bits of informa tion, Hannah Jane always knew it long before it had been spread broad cast through the tows. "Say, did ye know Sam Whitten's Anne had a shock?" volunteered an excited female, dropping in on Hannah Jane early one evening, just as that peaceful soul was sipping her nightly brew of lea. "Taken at 2 o'clock this afternoon," calmly replied that lady, serenely; "had to send for that know-nothing crittur of a Dr. Smith, 'cause Dr. Brown wasn't home. Got Sam Ketch urn's Tabitfaa for a nurse." "For the land's sakes, Hannah, how'd ye know it?" gasped the as tounded caller. "You ain't had time to go down to the village and back Since it happened." Hannah Jane shook her head in mysterious fashion. "You do beat all for getting the news first," continued the neighbor, with an injured air. "How in time's sake do ye manage." Hannah Jane meditated a moment, then beckoned to her guest, who was one of her " oldest friends. and led her in solemn silence up the winding stairs that ; led to a turret chamber at the top of the house. This room had been made for her father, and old sea captain of the town, so that h, could , watch the vessels as they sailed into the harbor. From an ancient bureau in the cor ner of the room Hannah drew forth something wrapped carefully in tissue paper. "Opery glasses," she explained briefly, as she took out her treasure from the numerous wrappings. "Niece Ellen sent 'em to me five years ago; and a great comfort they have been. too," she added feelingly. "There's not -many a place In-- town but what I can make out with these oppcrry glasses, and there's not much going on that I don't know," finished this original being triumphantly, who in this novel fashion kept herself well In touch with the rest of the world. Comforting Advice. First Friend "Hello, Jinks! got a bad cold, I see. Bathe your feet in hot water,- and drink a pint of hot lem-" onade." Second Friend "Inhale ammonia, or menthol." Third Friend "Take four hours' ac tive exercise in the open air." Fourth Friend "Sponge with salt water, and remain in a warm room." : Fifth Friend "Put on all the winter things you've got, and spend half a day sawing wood." Sixth Friend "The best cure I know for a cold is to get drunk." Jinks with emotion -"A friend in need is a friend indeed. Let's take a drink." Lots more people would try to get to heaven if they were sure there were no Sunday schools and dry sermons there.
