BROUGHT OOVPT SWELLED HEAD
New Englander's Self-importance Giv
en Sever Shcck.
The discussion had turned upon the
subject of "swelled heads," and former
State Senator John. Ford told the
following:
"In a little town in New England
there was once a man who had a great
idea of his own importance. He had
the worst sort of a swelled head, and
thought the town could not eiist with
out him. He had held town offices and
sincerely believed that no one dis
charged the duties of those offices as
he had. He had also helped the town
materially by giving it money for
various purposes. But he was not
content with the r'nanirg of the towns
people for his services. He believed
that there should be some distinct rec
ognition of his worth to the commun
ity. So one day at a town meeting he
asked permission to be buriew in the
town plot in the center cf which the
town hall stood.
'The Town Councillors laughed and
the petition was tabled. The follow
ing year he petitioned for the same
thing, and again it was tabled. The
third year the same thing occurred.
"The fourth year the chairman of
the Petition Committee arose and
said: "I have here a petition from the
Han. Mr. 3 asking that he may
be buried in the town plot. I move,
gentlemen, that we gran this petition,
provided the petitioner is buried there
next week.' The moaon went throuzh
amid shouts of lauzhter and the peti
tion was never again presented."

VICTIM OF "CATCH QUESTION.
Apslicant's Veracity Evidently Was
Net His Strong Pcint.
John E. Vance, of the Civil Service
Commission of Little Rock, does not
behove m catch questions.
"Catch questions," he said the other
cay "are too crueL Furthermore, they
catch everybody, good and bad alike.
Hence they fail of their purpose.
"I once saw a very snarp examiner
examining some applicants for the po
I:ce force He tested them in arith
metic and m geozraphy and m free
nand drawing, and then he said he
would test their hearing.
"He took his watch from his pocket
and held it to the ear of a tall, hand
aome young man.
" 'Do you hear that tick?' he said.
" Yes . perfectly,' the young man
answered.
"He held it a foot from the appli
cant's ear.
" 'Still hear it?' he asked.
" 'Yes. sir '
" 'Now stand back three paces.'
"The young man did so.
" 'Now.' sa.d the examiner, 'do you
hear it rrom that distance?'
"The applicanr Lstened intently.
Then he smiled and nodded.
" 'I still hear it. sir.' he said.
" 'You have the most wonderful
heannz I ever came across." said the
examiner 'That watch has not been

?eaca Overtures.
There was blcod in the eyes of the
two suburban housewives as they
zlared dazzers at one another over
the whitewashed fence.
"As for you " hissed the one in the
red knit jacket. "I don t snow what
I could say that wouid b1 sufficiently
severe 1 hate you"
"And you."" retorted the one in the
blue shawl, "are really not worth
wastmz breath over So there!"
There was a painful pause and then
the one in the knit jacket continued.
l would say a great deal more were
it not for your sweet little baby."
"Dc do you really think he is
sweet?"
"I do. and I am not backward
about saymg it. although I despise
his mother He is the pretaest little

"Then then let's make up. Neigh

Then they kissed.

The man stammered painfully as he

! Ir -was very difficult for him to pro

Caught in His Own Tras.
Thomas A. Edison knows that he is
an inveterate smoker, but recently he
became convinced that his cigars
were being used by some person or
persons' other than himself, probably
his workmen. He asked his tobacco
nist what could be done about it and
the dealer offered to make ui some
fake cigars partially filled with horse
hair or rubber. Edison thought that
was a good plan and then he forgot all
about the matter In a week he re
called what the tobacconist had agreed
to do and called at the store to in
quire. "Tv"hy. I fixed up those cigars
for you some time ago." said the man.
"I put them in a fancy box and tied
them in the regulation yellow rib
bon." The inventor smiled in a sheep
ish way as he remarked: "Yes. and

WHO SHE WAS
SKETCH C? THE LIFE
And a True Story of How the Vegetable Compound
Had Its Birth and How the "Panic of To" Caused
it to be Offered for Public Sale in Drug Stores.
This remarkable tromar, whose
maiden name was Estea. was bora in
Lynn, Maas., February 9th. 1-1ij. com
imr from a rood Oui Quaker famiiv.
For some veara slie taucnt scnou., ana.
became known a a woman, of an aert
and investirarinc mind, an earnest
seeser after knowiedre. and above
all. possessed of a wonderfuy sympa
thetic nature.
In 1--43 she married Isaac Pinkham.
a builder and reaLeatate operator, and
their early married, life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. Ihey had
four children, three sons and a
daughter.
In tho-e cood old fashioned cava it
was common for mothera to matce
their own home medicines from roots
. and herbs, nature s own remedies
' caliinz in a pnysician oc'v in specially
urcent cases. Bv tradition and ex
perience many of them rramed a won
derful knwledze of tne curative prop
erties of various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinkham took a creat interest
in the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power over disease.
She maintained that just as nature so
bountifully pnvides in the harvest
nelds and orcnards vecretabie food. of
all kinds : so. if we but tace the pain
to find them, in the roots ami herbs
of the field there are remedies ex
pressly desnrned to care tne various
ills and weacneses of the cIy. and
it was her pleasure to search .ae-eonr.
and prepare aimple and eiieet.ve med.
cines for her own famiiv and fnenda.
Chief of these was a rare en tabula
tion of the choicest medi'-inat roots
and herbs found best adanted for the
cure of the ill.- and weakne -e- pocu-j
iiar to the female aex. and LvdiaE. Pink
ham's friends and ueichbor learned
that her comnoend rel.ved and cured
and it became quite popcar among
them.
All this so far was done freely, with
out money and without price, aa a
labor of love.
But in 1 ;73 the financial crisis struck
Lynm Its lenrrth and seventy were too
much for the larze, real estate interests
of the Pinkham family, as this ciass
of business suffered mot from
fearful depression, so when the Centen
nial year dawned it found tneir prop
erty swept away. Some other source
of income had to be found.
At this point Lydia E. Pinkham's
"Vegetable Compound was made known
to the world.

ao irood for their woman friends and
nefcrnbors was equally srood for tiia

The Pinkhama had no money, and
little credit. The.r nrst laboratory
was the kitchen, where roots and
herbs were steeped on the stove,
rracually nlimg a gross of bottles,
men came the quest.cn of aetiimr
it. ior aiwavs before thev had given
it away freely. They hired a job
printer to run off some pamphlets
setting forth the merits of tne medi
cine, now called Lvdia E. Pinkham's
vegetable Compound, and these wew
districuted by the Pinitham sons in
Boston, New York, and Brooklyn.
The wonderful curative properties ai
the ined.uine were to a rreat extent,
seif-advertisimr. for whoever used i
recommended it to others, and the de

In I5T7, by combined efforts the fam

to-day these records, tocether with
hundreds of thonsands made since are
available to sick women the world

treatment of woman'' ills, which :or
authenticity and accuracy can hardly
be equaled in any library in tna
