Why should this Be the case t Because they have neglected themselves. Every one of these patients in the hospital beds had plenty of warning in that bearing-down feeling, pain at the left or right of the womb, nervous exhaustion, pain in the small of the back. All of these things are indications of -an unhealthy condition of the ovaries or womb. What a terrifying thought ! these-poor souls are lying there on those hospital beds awaiting a fearful operation. Do not drag along at home, or in your place of employ ment until you are obliged to go. to the hospital and submit to an examination and possible operation. Build up the female system, cure the derangements which have signified them selves by danger signals, and remember that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has saved thousands of women from the hospital. Bead the letter here published with the full consent of -the writer, and see how she escaped the knife by a faithful reliance on Mrs. Pinkham's advice and the consistent treatment of her medicines. Mrs. Knapp tells of her Great Gratitude. ' Dear Mcs. Pixkiiax : I hare received much benefit from using yonr Vegetable Compound and Sanative Wash.

Indiana was the first state to en. gage headquarters at Cleveland for the next encampment- of the Grand Army. Captain W. H. Armstrong, who Is; a member of the executive committee. of the national council of administration, returned to Indianapolis the other day from the meeting of the committee In Cleveland. Department Commander Beem and Adjutant-General Smock of the Indiana department went with the committee, and as soon as the national arrangements were completed they made the arrangements for this de partment The officers were met by committees from all organizations in Cleveland, who asked them to desig nate what will be required. Cleveland had anticipated entertaining about 200,000 people, but the committee said a conservative estimate will be 300,000. The city will raise 175.000 for enter tainment, and the parade will be about two miles long, along Euclid avenue, from Case avenue to Erie street, which is that portion of the famous avenue not traversed by cars, and on which are the most palatial residences. AH halls will be engaged by the city and the national headquarters will be at the Hollenden, where seventeen rooms have been engaged. The Indiana head quarters for the W. R. C. of Indiana will also be at the Hollenden and the rooms have been engaged. All the schoolhouses in the city have been tendered, and the school council he'd a special meeting, at which formal ac tion to that end was taken. One of the committee of Cleveland men to make arrangements Is Captain Kendal, who was a member of Captain Armstrong's regiment, and whom he had not sean since 1S66. Neither recognized the oth er. Indianapolis News. Shocked the Guerrillas. In McClure's Magazine there is an interesting account, from the recol lections of Stephen Mallory, of the way in which Jefferson Davis received the report of Lincoln's assassination. This reminds a former resident of a southern state of the following remi niscence given to him by a veteran of the famous Morgan's guerrillas. John Hunt Morgan, the organizer and in spiring personality of the corps, had been killed long before Lee had sur rendered, and only a handful of the once redoubtable raiders was keeping up a semblance of resistance to the Union. A group of these was bivou acked in the woods not far from a small town In the interior of Ken tucky, waiting for much-needed sup plies and such information as might be brought by one of the number who had gone unarmed into the town on a combined scouting and foraging expe dition. It was late when the forager's signal was heard, and one of the party around the smoky fire made haste to meet him. When the two men ap pearcd the others at once saw that they had grave news to tell. The guer illa captain asked, "Well, what has happened?" "Abe Lincoln has been shot" "Dead?" "Yes. Night before last" There was an interval of si lence, and then the leader groaned, rather than said: "Good God! What will become of the south now?" The ex-guerilla who told the story said that not even himself and he was the youngest and most thoughtless of the party could find an answer to that question, which was more disquieting than anything he had thought of since the death of Morgan. Cuban Boy Gets Sew Home. Cecil Benjamin, a diminutice Cuban boy who came into frequent contact with Colonel Roosevelt and General Shatter during the Cuban campaign and reached Chicago as the mascot of the returning Eighth regiment of Illi nois volunteers, amused Judge Tuthill and the officers and spectators of the juvenile court yesterday afternoon, says the Chicago Chronicle. The little boy, who is so black that his complex ion has a blue tinge, stood on the wit ness stand close beside the judge and' with numerous nods and. long-drawn "Yes. sahs," told why the northern climate does not agree with him. He speaks both English and Spanish. During the war in Cuba he was picked up by Stephen Crane and for a time was valet to the war correspondent After coming to Chicago he was sent to the John Worthy school for stealing a watch. Later some ladies saw him there and secured his transfer to the school at Glenwood. During the recent conference of juvenile charities at Evanston Dr. Murry, pastor of the Bethel Methodist church, became in terested in the boy and gave him a home at the parsonage., He ran away from there last month because Mrs. Murry would not allow him to wear a pair of new gloves while sweeping the snow from the sidewalk. B. B. Lewis of 156 Twenty-second street was in court ready to take, the boy if the court would permit him to. Judge Tuthill said the young Cuban was the brightest boy who had been in the Juyenile court for several months. He was sent home with Lewis in charge of Probation Officer Bonner of South Chicago. The Birth of "Fply. The new words arising from the mix ture of American and Spanish' in our mew possessions may call, shortly, for new editions of our dictionaries. The story of one such word, "splgoty." has been traced by a writer in the Boston Transcript. Splgoty, according to one version, was the nickname given by troopsoT in the Second cavalry sta tioned at Fort Riley. Kansas, in 1896 to a saUow-complexioned company man who admired an Italian girl called "Spaghetti.? At the outbreak of the war these soldiers, fqgether with their comrade "Splgoty," were transferred to Company A of the signal corpa. After a stay at Chickamauga this company was sent to Porto Rico with General Miles' expedition, landed at Ponce and encamped later at Guayama. Here the men discovered that the natives them selves were of the same hue a3 "Splgo ty," and in the course of time they therefore dubbed them "Splgoties." Soon the nickname spread, not only in Guayama, but throughout the province, and at last to every town on the is land,' till now the word has become a common means both of designating residents of Spanish or Porto Rican blood and describing everything char acteristic of them, such as a "spig!" hat, a "splgoty" dollar or a "splgoty" trick. Indeed, the Americans now ask one another: "Do you talk spigoty?" or "Can you dance spigoty?" Road builders order, "Shqyel in more dirt there, Spigoty"; housewives say, "Some more bread, please, Spigoty," and even the natives themselves, when in need of an expression of contempt fora fel low being, now cry "Spigoty." Ran for the "Grand FrUe." "There wasn't much hazing at the naval academy when I was there," said Captain Carpenter of the marine corps, "although once in awhile some funny thing was done. I remember one night when all the men in our dormitory were called out into an upper corridor to see what the announcer said was to be 'the grand prize.' Four big plebes were led out, on their hands and knees and stark naked except for towels laid across their backs for saddles. They were the thoroughbred horses," quotes the New York World. "Then came four small plebes, dressed in un dershirts, drawers and caps, and wear ing bright ribbon sashes. These were the jockeys. Each had a hairbrush for a whip. Then came four upper class men as owners and four more as train ers. The little plebes were mounted on the big plebes and all the prelim inaries of a running horse race were gone through. The owners instructed the jockeys to use the whips liberally and go out to win, and the trainers forced the horses to act up at the post. Finally the race was started and the four big plebes scrambled down the corridor, the little plebe jockeys enter ing into the spirit of the thing and whaling away for dear life with the hairbrushes. A big chap from Arkan saswon, and he was afterward known as 'The Thoroughbred.' " Curiosities of Courage. One of the most interesting articles in Everybody's Magazine is "Curiosi ties of Courage," by Richard Harding Davis. It is a subject this clever writer has thought much about and his experiences in five campaigns have furnished him material of no common order to draw upon for instances and examples. "In the five campaigns I have watched," he says, "I have seen but one man who was obviously terri fied, so terrified that he did not even endeavor to conceal the fact I have seen men skulk and hang back, but I have only seen this one man show that he was a coward. Of course, to say that all men are brave is not saying that the degrees of bravery are many and various. All men can talk, but seme men can talk better than others, and they are called orators. The ora tors among brave men are those who by some individual exhibition of cour age, coolness or nerve, illuminate an entire battlefield, or at least inspire and set an example to a regiment" Captain Didn't Scare Saltan. Captain S. E. Smiley, who was cred ited with the story that General Bates used a phonograph to scare the sultan of Sulu into signing a treaty with the United States, writes to the Army and Navy Journal to say that he never made any such statement Negotia tions looking to an agreement, Captain Smiley states, were conducted at the governor's house in Jolo and the sul tan's house in Maibun, not on board the cruiser Charleston. When the sul tan visited the Charleston a phono graph was shown him, and he was greatly delighted with it but his lis tening to the phonograph and his talk ing into it had no relation whatever to the signing of the agreement between General Bates and himself. Captain Smiley says it is unfair to General Bates and to the government to ascribe the signing of the agreement to any .trick, artifice or device, because all the negotiations were fair, square, open and above board. Chicago Inter Ocean. rrlTate and Public Courage. "In bestowing praise for Individual acts of courage," says Richard Hard ing Davis in Everybody's Magazine, "one should also differentiate between the man who has an audience and the man who has none; the general who has such enormous responsibilities that he cannot afford the luxury of fear and the private soldier who feels that among 15,000 he Is not going to count for much, and wonders why he should not drop out behind a rock, and also between the man with imagination which terrifies him with possible evils, arid the other with no mind to con ceive of any danger that is not immedi ately before him." Oil for Warship FaeL In spite of the fact .that the experi ments made in the American navy with oil as fuel have been entirely unsatis factory, some of the French and Ger man vessels on the China station are having complete success with it. The advantages of petroleum if it can be properly utilized are very great At Singapore, for example, coal now costs about $14 a ton, while oil costs but S6 a ton and has a steam-raising poVer of 20 per cent greater than that of coal. . Qwtttloa of Graduating Time. Statement has recently been made that there was a possibility of the first class at the naval academy graduating earlier than -June, 1901. Of course, there Is a "possibility," but it is so remote that it is not worth serious dis cussion at present That the navy is sadly in need of officers is an admitted fact, but neither the department nor the authorities at the academy look with favor upon graduating classes at Annapolis ahead of their time, except under pressure of extreme necessity. .. The Michigan soldiers' home at Grand Rapids Is overcrowded and there Is talk of considerable enlargement The Worldw Cosm Crop. The United States department of agriculture has just issued a statement of the world's corn crop for 1899. By continents it is as follows: North America, 210.500,000; South America, 90,0M.0M; Europe, S389.332.000; Af rica, 33,158,000; Australia, 10,025.000; total, 2.733,015,000. In details the yields follow: United States 2,078. 144,000; Canada (Ontario), 22,358,000; Mexico, 110.000.000; Chile, 9.000.000; Argentina, 75,000,000; Uruguay, 6,000, 000; France, 30,000,000; Spain, 24,667, 000; Portugal. 16.000,000; Italy, 88.536. 000; Austria, 14,583,000; Hungary, 113. 807,000; Croatia Slavonica,' 14.106.000; Roumania, 27.721.000; Bulgaria, 14. 000,000; Servia, 15,000,000; Russia, 30. 912,000; Algeria, 300,000; Egypt. 30, 000.000; Cape Colony. 2,858.000; Aus tralasia, 10,025,000. The statistics are Incomplete, as a good many countries raise maize that are not reported in the above. For instance, the figures from Canada com prise only the statistics of corn raised in Ontario. Central America is omitted- altogether. Some corn is being raised in Asia, but none is reported. The government report further says: Useful official figures from the prin cipal corn-producing countries are now for the first time available for mak ing an estimate of the quantity of corn produced in the world In the cal endar year, 1S99. From a company tive statement giving the world's crop from 1895 to 1899, it is apparent that the aggregate for the last-named year was 2.723,015,000 bushels, an increase of 67,522,000 bushels over the crop of 1898 and of 150,421,000 bushels over that of 1897, but a decrease of 231.420. 000 bushels from the crop of 1896 and 101.330.000 bushels from that of 1895. The strikingly characteristic feature of the corn crop of the western hemis phere, and to. an almost equal extent of the corn crop of the world, is the large proportion of the crop produced In the United States. The average production of this republic during the five years 1895 to 1899 has consti tuted about 90 per cent of the average product of the western hemisphere and almost exactly 75 per cent of the av erage crop of the world. The corn crop of the United States has within the last quarter of a century attained a magnitude which makes it more than double in quantity any other single cereal crop of this or any other nation of the world. The average annual production of corn in the world for the five yean enumerated in the tabulated statement was 2,756,057,000' bushels; and the pre eminence of the western hemisphere as a corn producer is excellently il lustrated by the fact that its average production for the same period was over 82 per cent of the world's average production or, stated in full, 2,269.380, 000 bushels. Second in importance as a corn pro ducer, but rather in an absolute than in a relative sense, is the continent of Europe. Confined by climatic lim itations to the southern part of the continent, principally to countries and portions of countries lying between the forty-eighth parallel of north lati tude and the coastal boundary on the south, the crop has within these lim its become of notable importance. In Austria-Hungary, the second corn producing country of the world, and In Roumania, it is the principal cereal crop. In portions of southern France, in Spain, Portugal, Italy, Servia, Bul garia, and in the southern part of Russia, it has become an integral part of agriculture. The average annual crop of the European continent for the five years ending with 1S99 was 441,426,000 bushels, about 10 per cent of the average crop of the world. There is an obvious lack of abso lute completeness in corn statistics of the western hemisphere, due to an In ability to obtain either official or com mercial figures from Central America, and from some countries of South America, in which countries corn is known to be the chief article in the dietary of the masses; but the omis sion is unavoidable. Live Stock Items. Consignments to the sheep pens at the Chicago stock yards last Saturday included a band of 504 seventy-pound Angora goats that sold for 33.30 per hundred. The demand for sheep in the Chi cago live stock market is well sus tained, especially for choice mutton sheep suitable for the export trade. There is also a call for iambs but at prices 31.00 to 31.25 lower than last year at this season. Lambs are selling fairly well at Chi cago. The closing prices for the week ending January 19 were .10 cents higher than the previous week. Prime native lambs and lots from the alfalfa sections of Colorado brought 35.60. This, however, Is 65 cents below last year's best price at this period. Feed ing lambs are not going off very rapid ly, at prices ranging from 34.00 to 34.50. It is Interesting to note that Colorado's first shipment of lambs ar rived this year three weeks earlier in the season than last year. The crop from that state is said to be of a qual ity that has never been excelled. Otto Franc, a prominent cattleman of Meeteetse, Wyo., Is quoted by the Omaha Journal as saying: "Ours used to be a great cattle country, but it is mostly sheep now.and they are driv ing out the cattle. On my range there used to be 20,000 head of cattle, but I can only keep now 1500 breeding cows and ship the increase when they are yearlings. We cattlemen have got into the habit of raising alfalfa and timo thy hay and feeding our stock through the winter, allowing the sheepmen to have the winter range. There are now probably a million sheep on the range which my neighbors and .myself form erly used for 40,000 cattle. As we have less cattle we are breeding them up rapidly and Improving the quality." Coachers of Iligk Quality la Demand. There is said to be at the present time a very good demand for high priced coachers both for home and foreign markets. In fact this demand has been quite brisk for a year past There are a large number of good sized cities In the United States and in each city are people that can afford to have a team, of high quality coach ers. This makes the volume of home demand considerable. There'is an es pecially strong demand for well-matched teams, and men that have such to sell can get a good deal more than the going market price for them. Not being able to get this the buyers will take the cross-matched teams at a pretty fair price, if the quality be good. Here comes in the value of color. It shows that a prepotent stallion In a locality is of even greater value than ordinarily if he can throw the same color in his colts. This fact should discourage nap-hazard breeding. Wild cobblers mate later in the sea son, and the wild hens lay later than domestic turkeys. The flesh of the wild birds is of a better flavor and is more delicate and tender.

I have used it in my family, and they all join me in recommending it as an excellent remedy." George H. White. Hon. J. P. Megrew, Superintendent U. S. Capital Police Force, of Wash ington, D. C, says: "Having, suffered from the grip, I was advised by a friend to use your Peruna. I also used it for my catarrh, and I can now cheerfully recommend your remedy to anyone who is suffer ing from the grip and catarrh." J. P. Megrew. Miss Anna Russell, Past Worthy Counselor, Loyal Mystic Legion,. 293 Endicott Bldg., St Paul, Minn., writes: "For years I have unfortunately found my system in a peculiarly recep tive condition for catarrh when I was exposed- in any way to inclement weather. At tiiose times I would be severely afflicted with la grippe and its unpleasant consequences. "Now for the past .year and a half I have used peruna in sucn cases and have found that it not only cures me quickly, but it also cleanses my blood and renders me less liable to catch cold. It is. the finest preventative of colds that 'I know of and a very su perior tonic." Anna Russell. The talkative. bore is the worst kind of a pneumatic tire. Howells Reads His Speeches. Since William D. Howells became a New Yorker he has frequently been a guest of speechmaking dinners, but on very few of these occasions has he been pursuaded to say anything him self, and when he has spoken be read his speech. Very few of the well known after-dinner speechmakers trust to the inspiration of the moment for the substance of their remarks. Mr. How ells, however, never commits his speech to memory. He reads it, with no attempt at oratorical effects, and usually with the air of a man who has a distasteful task. Hope is the froth on a man's imagi nation. An Irishman says a soldier makes his living by dying for his country. - A - A INCHESTE FACTORY LOADED "NewRival," " Leader," mm"Repmmter IssUt spoa having them, take no others and you will get the best abells that laoaey can buy.

In the fall I caught a cold after getting my feet wet and attending a lecture in a cold hall, and I suffered a relapse. An un pleasant catarrh of the head and throat followed, and as I wag In a weak condition physically previous to this, it took but little to break mo down completely. "One of my college friends who was visiting me, asked me to try Peruna, and I did so and found it all and moro than I had expected. It not only cured me of the catarrh, but restored me to perfect health, built up the entire sys tem, and brought a happy feeling of buoyancy which I had not known for years." Miss Alice Dressier.
