JOYS OF iVjATERKITY It WOlilN'S BEST HOPES REALIZED Mrs. Potts Tolls How 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 ag"e. Many a wife has found herself inca pable of motherhood owing- to a dis placement of the womb or lack of strength in the generative organs. Airs. 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 bow can a woman who has some fe male trouble bear healthy children? Mrs. Anna Potts, of 510 Park Avenue, Ilot Springs, Ark., writes: My Dear Mrs. Pinkham: " During the earlv jwrt of my married life I was delicate in health : loth my husband and I were verv anxious firachild to bless our home, but I b:td two miscarriages, and could not carry a child to maturity. A neiubor Yihohadbeeneurvd by Lydia E. PitiUiarn'a Vegetable Conitioutid advised me to try it. I did so and soon felt that I was growirg tronjier, my headaches and backaches left me, I had no more lustring-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. I'ink 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's Vegetable Compound and write to Mrs. Pinkham. Lynn. Mass. Her advice is free to expectant or would-be mothers.

It costs $1.7fi a word to send a mes sage to Japan; and. with war raging in the far East, the cable tolls for war news are Fometliing 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 wholojme 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 Poston had before him a couple of girls charged with stealing ribbons fiom 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.

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 S50, and subsequently a batless old man, a lunatic, who was wandering aimless through the streets was found to be the owner. In Days of Old. "I guess I'm an old sorehead," re marked the Manayunk philosopher, "but I can't for the life of me imagine Abraham Lincoln at the age of 1G go in' round with football hair, an his britches turned up over a pair of low quarter shoes an' openwork socks." 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 tions, accompanied by bands, which serenaded the industrious hen. No Use for Beef.

In Paris even the poor man stops on his way to work to have his shoes shined. It costs him only 2 cents, and he might lose his job if he did not. The Professor. "Tn the midst of iife'." said the pro fessor, reflecting on the general un certainty of things, "there is always an 'if'." Insist on Getting It Some grocers say they don't keep Defiance Starch. This is because they 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. Do you want 16 oz. instead of 12 oz. for same money? Then buy Defiance Starch. Requires no cooking. Why is it that girls who go to cook ing school never learn to bake any thing but cake?

Williams' Pink Pills. "In tbe lead mines I was at work on my knees with my elbows pressed against rock walls, in dampness and extremes of cold," said Mr. J. G. Meukel, of 2975 Jackson aveiide, Dubuque, Iowa, iu 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 would 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 Rile People, the remedy he had used. In three or four weeks after beginning to use the pills, I was much better and in three mouths I was well. The swelling of the joints and the tenderness disappeared, I could work steadily and for eight years I have bad no rntnrii of the trouble. My whole 'family believe iu Dr. Williams' Pink Puis. Both my sons uso tnem. we consider them a household remedy that we are sure about. What Dr. Williams' Pink Pills did for Mr. Meukel they are doiug 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 your druggists' or direct from the Dr. Williams 3Icdi cine Co., Sdicuuctauy, K. Y. Victor Emanuel Monument. Giuseppe Saconi 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. Sure Thing.

Daly, passenger traffic mana ger of the New York Central lines west of Buffalo, and Warren Lynch, general passenger agent of the Big Four, were called to New York recent ly for conference with President New man. A plan is said to be on foot to transfer Mr. Daly to New York as passenger traffic manager of the New York Central, to give Mr. Lynch the Chicago post, to retire George Daniels, general passenger agent of the New York Central, and to make H. J. Rheln, now general passenger agent of the Lake Erie and Western, general pas senger agent of the Big Four. Mr. Daniels has confirmed the report as to his retirement.

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, Umbundu, 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 in 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 It 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 lic 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 heard 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. Suzannah. When de dew on de grass am a-fallln. An de stahs am a-twinklln. too. O.

"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 close her chatelaine bag. New York ress. The Parson's Explanation. A Scots minister had forgotten u bring his manuscript to the church and on going into the pulpit gave his congregation this explanation: "I am very sorry, my friends, to have to tell you that I have mislaid my manu script 1 must, therefore, this morn ing just say to you what the Lord has put into my mouth, but I trust I shall come out this afternoon better pro vided." The Tatler. 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." Ha 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. Call for Artificial Teeth. An advertiser in a British magazine says: "Old artificial teeth bought. Call, or if forwarded by post, utmost value per return. Messrs. Smith, manufacturing dentists, Oxford street, London. Established 100 years." 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 food. 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 ?i -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 "16 ozs." Demand De fiance and save much time and money and the annoyance of the iron stick ing. Defiance never sticks. Men work best at 3 in the afternoon and worst at 9 in the morning. CITC permanently cured. Nofnornervonne?iarter rl IO ttrtlv"iiseof hr.KlliieXireKtNtrielUtcr er.

Are You Tired, Nervous and Sleepless? Nervousness and sleeplessness are 'us ually due to the fact that the norvc aro not fed on properly nourishing blood; they are starved nerves. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery makes pure, rich hlnod, and thereby the nerves are properly nourished and all the oreans of the body are run as smoothly as machin ery which runs in oil. In this way you feel clean, strong and strenuous you aro toned up and invigorated, and you aro 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, hut the Golden Seal root used in its compound ing is greatly enhanced in its curative ac tion by other ingredients such as Stone root.
