troduced at two of tho recent weddings at
Now York. At the first tho maids, gowned
In Ivory mull with renaissance appllquo,
woro largo picture hats of violet molro
velvet shado with ostrich plumes. They
carried bouquets of raauvo astors and
orchids. At tho second bridal tho maids
woro in whlto china silk with laco inser

and fichu of laco and mauvo satin finished
tho bodice. With these fetching gowns
wero worn large black picture hats.
Tho bouquets wcro of Parma violets. An
other set of bridesmaids looked llko huge

decorated with velvet and popples. The
flowers carried wero red dablles nnd the
frocks wero of whlto oriental satin with

SUB TAMI3S FltANTIC MEN.
You ii or Woman Wliu Serves ns
Dcntul Assistant.
Dontlstry lb ono of the professions which
has for years been a Held of success for
women. But it has remained for o New
York dentist to discover a department of
dentistry for which women alono aro avail
able. This Ingenious practltlonor Is of the
class which creates dental cavities, as dis
tinct from tho class which fills them. In
othor words his specialty Is extracting
teeth, and he Is considered to be at the top
of his particular line. Like all tooth
pullers he has an assistant to glvo tho gas
to the patient, until recently his assist
ants have all been men. Invariably they
havo had trouble with timid Bnfferers,
whoso fear of gas has olther made them
violent 'or necessitated violent measures to
control them. Ono of them was discharged
for pouring gas Into a patient who nearly
choked to death boforo be could explain
that he didn't want to take the anaesthetic;
another resigned after un athletic victim
had thrown him through a convenient win
dow, and a third removed the gas tube
prematurely, whereupon the subject arose
in a fit of gas-intoxication and wrecked the
office, the assistant and the dentist before
they got him under eontrol.
Then the dentist hired a young woman.
Sho was a distinct addition to his office,
ornamentally considered. Also, sho was
a proficient admlnlatrant of nitrous oxide.
But her chief value was purely psychologi
cal. Tbo stormiest patients, men who had
left a record of cyclonic terror and deatruo-
tlon behind them, came, saw, gasped, sub
mitted, and woro deprived of tholr molars
, without tha slightest trouble. They did not
oven oeem to bo terrified, or, if they wore,
she took pains to conceal their qualms.
In tho three months since tho dentist ao
quired tho services of the young woman
ho hasn't had ono rcolly troublesomo case.
To a fellow member of his profession who
expressed surprise that hu should have a
woman assistant to administer gas, tt
originator of the schenio explained it as fol
lows: "Nluo out of ten men aro deadly afraid of
taking gas. They aro still moro afraid to
havo tho tooth pulled without It. Between
tho two fears and the pain of tho tooth
they como hero in n condition of temper
which an unfed tiger would blush to own.
They would mako excuses nnd they would
invent objection and they would try to tear
loose and escape. It got on my nerves till
I was ready to go out of the business, Thon
I had my brilliant notion. I got a girl, a
good-looking girl with pluck, who had
BODICES.
studied dentistry. Sho wasn't easy to find,
but I got her. That ended tho trouble.
Don't sco why, eh? You don't know much
about mankind. There's one thing that no
man will do who's got nny grip of himself
at all, and that's to show himself a coward
beforo a woman. This Is particularly truo
If she's young nnd good-looking. It was
pitiful to see 'em, though, when they came
In and saw what thoy woro up against.
Somo of 'om wero for trying tho window, If
I hadn't headed them off. Once sho got hold
of them, though, they wcro llko lambs.
Sho's worth thousands of dollars a year to
me, but I don't tell her so."
"But how about jour woman patients?"
asked tho other dontlst. "They aren't
afraid to show their feelings beforo an
other woman, I suppose."
"Pshaw," said tho first. "Don't yon know
that women never mako any fuss, anyway?"

MISUNDERSTOOD WOMEN
lly MA It HAH
(ALL HiailTS
My licnrt goes out to tho woman who, Impressed with tlio necessity for
looking well tiftcr Lor health, becomes tlio victim of her own nuxlcty nnd
of tho medical theories advanced by hor physicians.
Tlio woman I mean Is always solng lo tho, doctor nnd Is never well. Sho
liiiK n now trouble every day and her family and friends think her diseases aro
Imaginary. Now she has a pnln In her chest, which sho Is suro Is pleurisy;'
again sho will hnvo it backache that can bo traced to nothing but kidney
trouble. Auothur day her legs will acho and swell, nnd so on. Thero never
Ih a dny that shu hasn't some complaint' and usually It Is different ftv t
anything she over had beforo. After n llttlo no ono sympathizes with her.
They make light of her complaints nnd tho poor wouuui, who is really suffer
ing nud Ut, leads n llfo of hopelessness nud misery. Sho gets uo help
from her doctor because the actuul troubles tho womnn has nro tho kind thnt
doctors never euro, Vet sho Is forced to go to tho doctor coustnntly for tlio
aid sho never gets. Tho doctors' bills aro heavy, tho husband doesn't bo
Hcvo In her slckuess nnd after n whllo complains ut tho heavy expense.
How dreary Indeed Is llfo to this poor womnul
Of course the new troubles that como to hor every dny aro really mani
festations of the samo old trouble. They nro merely symptoms. She lias
falling of tho womb, nnd all her nervousness, her headaches, her bearlug
down sensations and her endless pain aro caused by this ono thing. Sho
has n sensitive organism, which rellccts through tlio nerves tho womb de
rangement. This makes It seem as though sho had so many different diseases.
In the beginning tho medlcluu that would havo saved her all tho mlsory
Is Lydla 10. I'lnkham's Vegetable Compound. It Is tho ono medicine now that
will help her. As soon as the strengthening luflueucu of this famous woman's
remedy Is felt thu nervous teuslotr will relax and tho distressing sensation
will disappear.
It will take longer to euro this woman than If sho hadn't gouo so many
years without tho right treatment, but sho can be cured by the samu medi
cine that has helped so many thousnuds of women. Whoever knows such
it poor, misunderstood suffered will do her a good turn by cnlllug her atten
tion to Mrs. Ulnkhiiui's medicine.
With all Its ningnlllceuf record In tho euro of tliesc troubles, nud the
widespread knowledge of Its eillcloucy, It Is slugular that any woman will
permit herself to disregard It and waste her llfo In this way. Perhaps tho
greatest cruelty of all Is for tho lmmedlato family to say sho Is not sick, I
know a caso of this kind nnd It Is pitiful to seo how tho mother Is misun
derstood by her children und her husband. No doubt a good many things
that appear real to hor aro Imaginary; tho doctor tells Ui. fnuilly that It Is
nervousness and Imagination, and so they, without nny Intention of being
unkind, ignore tho complaints of suffering, thinking In this way she will
get over her troubles. It Is hard, too, for tho family; they are willing to do
what they cun, but they think her mind unbalanced on this subject. In
tlmo definite disease declares Itself and probably by this tlmo such head
way has been niudo that a hospital operation seems the only resource.
Some way must be found to mako these conscientious women who
wnnt to be well, and aro taking so much trouble to bo well, see that they
need Lydla K. IMnkham's Vegetable Compound. I will venture to say that
every women who Is being treated today for a great variety of troubles,
will Und them all disappear if sho will get Mrs. IMnkham's advice and
follow It. The declaration of health Is unmistakable; Imagining all kinds
of diseases Is a nervous state produced In woman Invariably by female
complaints. Doctors do not expect women to be well and their treatment
encourages tho belief In woman's heritage of pnln. This Is absolute error
und utterly contrary to nature's plan. Xo woman knows this so thoroughly
us .Mrs. I'lnkluini and no advice Is so kindly aud convincing us hers.
Let tho woman who has the complicated troubles and tho woman who
