SSj Women are Like FlftO/DrC Healthy andstrong I IUWCI 5t they blossom and bloom. Sickly, they wither and die. Every woman ought to look well and feel well. It’s her right and duty, buffshe might as well try to put out a , fire with oil as to be healthy and attractive with disease corroding the organs that make her a woman. Upon their health depends her health. If there is Inflammation or weakening drains or suffering at the monthly ', period, attend to it at once. Don’t i delay. You're one step nearer the grave every day you put it off. Women can stand a great deal, but they cannot live forever with disease dragging at the most delicate and , vital organs in their body. Y.ou may have be»n deceived in so-called cures. 1 We don’t see how you could help it—there is so much worthless stuff on the market. But you won’t be dts--1 appointed in Bradfield's Female Reg- ' ulator. We believe it is the one medi--1 cmeon earth for womanlv ills. There is as much difference between it and 1 other so-called remedies as th-re is betweenright and wronv. Biedfield's Female Regulator soothes the pain, stops the drains, promotes regularity, strengthens, purines and cleanses. It 1 does all this quickly and easily and naturally. Itis for women alone todecide whether they will be healthy or sick. Bradfield’s Regulator lies at hand. $ I per bottle at drug store. Send tor our tree booklet. * TH! BRADHtIi) RIGHATOR CO., Atlanta. 6a. A Rabelais Haas. Rabelais, being out of money, once tricked the police into taking him from Marseilles to Paris on a charge of treason. He made up some packages of brick dust and labeled them “Poison for the royal family.” The officers took Rabelais "00 miles, only to be told at the end of their journey that it was April 1 and the affair was a hoax. Os course, as Rabelais was the privileged wit of the royal family, he was forgiven. trail What She Wanted. Papa There, there! You needn’t kiss mi any more. Tell me what you want.

Me., John McLeod, a lumber sealer, was obliged to take out his jackknife and cut off his leg. The trap was too heavy to move and was sprung in such away that he could not reach over and release it He was far from any human being, and the only nay out of it seemed tv be to cut off the leg. That was done easily. t>ecause the leg upon which Be operated was of wood. Hut when he stumped buck to camp .t made him mad to hear the jeers of the I'rcnili-Canadlan cook of the lumber crew. •’Why you no take off you whole wood laig. ah? You get out um thrap and no spile you wood laig 'tall, ah?” Such away out of bis difficulty had not occurred to McLeod before. Skill In Throwing Off Mull Baas. The busiest clerk in any crew or car is the one who is detailed to receive and throw off the sacks and pouches. To lift a heavy mail sack and throw it from a cur moving at the rate of a mile a minute is a matter of good target shooting. "Looks easy enough,” com mented one of the veteran clerks at the letter case, "and it does seem as if a man should be able to hit a station platform without much difficulty, but you see that station is passed and gone in about one second. Then, the auction of a train running at this speed is something terrific, and until the knack of throwing a pouch is learned a man is liable to feed the wheels with a few letters.’'— Saturday Evening Post. Alrlgln of the Word Sterling. The origin of the word “sterling" la very curious. Among the early mintera of coin In northern Europe were the dwellers of eastern Germany. They were so skillful in their calling that numbers cf them were invited to England to manufacture the metal money of the kingdom. The strangers were known ns "eusterllngs.” After a time the word became "sterling," and in this abbreviated form it has come to imply what is genuine in money, plate or character. Italia.

PREPARING TO DEPART Withdrawal of Troops From Pekin Now Under Discussion. Pekin. April 30.—The generals of the powers held a conference yesterday to consider the question of the withdrawal of troops and decided to address a note to the ministers informing them that wheu the ministers are able to announce the lump sum demanded as indemnity, and the Chinese have agreed to the principles of payment, arrangements will be possible for withdrawal. The other matters diseussisl were the handing over of the administration of Pekin to native officials and the plan for the command of legation guards as to whether this command should be centered In one officer or each detachment should be Independents Regarding the government of Pekin, it was decided to allow the Chinese gradually to assume more control until the civil government was entirely in their hands, tlie military only exercising passive supervision. The Germans were virtually caught in a trap near the Ku Kwan pass. A detachment of 80 had 45 casualties, while the Chinese losses are said to have been nominal. The German ex liedltlou is returning, leaving the country greatly disaffected. owing to the hardships Inflicted upon the [>opula tion Altogether the expedition appears to have produced a very bad effect I'he current Chinese gossip is that the Germans were driven back with heavy losses, and it is implicitly believed by the bulk of the people. FIVE BURNED TO DEATH An Entire Family Perished In an Incendiary Blaze at Houston. Houston, Tex.. April 29.—1 n a tire which destroyed a livery stable and three residences at an early hour Suu day morning live persons were burned to death. Job Copping, a florist, his wile and three children. A negro has Iteen arrested on-the charge of having started the tire to get revenge on his employer for having discharged him. In the ruins were found the bodies of the victims, among them being an In fant who had been born to Mrs. Copping during the progress of the fire. Its laxly was found with its mother’s. Mr. and Mrs. Jeff Hopi>er jumped from the burning building and both were badly injured, perhaps fatally. The tire started in a livery stable over which several families lived. The building was a mere shell, and was a mass of flames when the firemen ar rived. A crippled widow. Mrs. Thompson. escaped trotn the building and says she saw the Copping family run back into their room from the ballway. and that was the last seen of them alive. W u Will Receive Contributions. Washington, April 30.—1 n connection with an organized effort in New York to contribute funds for the famine suf ferers in China. Mr Wu is receiving inquiries from persons outside of New York as to where subscriptions can lx- sent. He is ready to accept any such donations and will give proper receipts for the same. His belief is that much of the suffering exists in the interior, particularly in Shan Si province, from famine and drouth and from the paralysis of all industries owing to the recent disorders. Clothing Trust the Next. Chicago. April 26.—Chicago manufacturers of clothing repres' ntiug an aggregate capital of from $15.uu0,000 to S2O.IIOO,(JPG met yesterday and decided to form an association which will combine with similar bodies throughout the United States. The stop was taken as the result of a visit of Eastern delegates, who for years have been trying to effect a combina tion of all the large manufacturing houses in the business. Fatal How At a Dance. Gilman. Ills., April 29.—At a country dance three miles south of Gilman Saturday night the three Morris broth ers. Walter. James and Philip, from this city, wore shot. Walter died, the other two will recover, though James was seriously wounded. The shooting followed a tight between the brothers and three or four other guests at the dance. George Morrison did the shooting. Ha gave himself up to the sheriff and claims he fired in self-defense. A Ghastly Keene Clayton. N. M..

The headless trunk pitched forward toward the spectators, and blood scattered upon those nearest the scaffold. Two Miners Killed.

SHIP. (treat H»i»r Was the Ceuntry's Premier Fighting Mlacbine. Os the first ship, property speaking, of the British navy, known as the Groat Harry, the following particulars are given in an old number of the Mechanic's Magazine, dated Oct. 25, 1823: The Great Harry was built by King Henry VII at a cost of £14.000, and was burned at Woolwich, through accident. in 1553. Though King Henry, as well as other princes, hired many ships, exclusive of those which the different seaports were obliged to furnish, be seems thus to have been the first king who thought of avoiding this inconvenience by raising such a force as might lie at all times sufficient for the service of the state. Historians tell us that be caused his navy, which had been neglected in the preceding reign, to be put in a condition to protect the British coasts against all foreign invasions. and that lu the midst of profound peace he always kept up a fleet ready to act. In August. 1512. the Regent, a ship of 1,000 tons, which was at that time the largest vessel in the British navy, was burned, and to replace it the Great Harry, or, as it was also known, the Henry Grace de Dleu, was built in 1515. The vessel, of about 1.000 tons bur den. was manned by 319 soldiers. 301 marines and 50 gunners. She had four masts and portholes on both decks and In other parts. Before the time of her construction the cannon were placed above deck and on the prow and poop. One Decbarges, a French builder at Brest, is said to Lave invented portholes. In a list of the British navy, as it stood on Jan. 5, 1548, the Great Harry is said to have carried 19 brass and 103 iron pieces of ordnance. The name of the ship is supposed to have been changed in the reign of Edward VI to Edward, which, on Aug. 26, 1552. was reported to be still “in good case to serve,” and was ordered “to be grounded and calked once a year to keep it tight.”—Cassler's Magazine. BILLIARD CUES. Hew They Are Made—America Fnralihet the Best. “Most billiard cues," said a New York manufacturer the other day, "are made in two pieces—the cue proper and the handle. The cue is made generally of maple, and the butt, which is wedge shaped, is Inserted into a handle of rosewood, snakewood, ebony, mahogany. walnut or some other fancy dark wood, which is cut to dovetail with the long part. “The maple wood used In making the handles is sawed into suitable lengths and seasoned. The logs are then split into pieces from which the bandies are made. These pieces are called bolts. The bolts are sawed approximately to the shape of the handle to be finally made, and in this shape they are handle blocks. The handle block is turned to the shape of the handle In a lathe, and when the butt has been fitted it is finished ami polished. "The finest and best cues are fitted to the handle or butt by means of a double wedge. At the top of the cue is a ferrule nf |v or y, of born or bone, in which the leather tip is fitted. While the ivory ferrule is the most expensive, of course it is less durable than the born or bone ferrules, which are less liable to crack. The extra workmanship on cues is put in on the batts, some of which are elaborately inlaid and carved in beautiful patterns. "There are a number of billiard players who will not permit another person to use their cues, and for the use of these particular players cues are turned out from which the tips may be unscrewed. leaving the cue with unfinished points and useless. “American billiard cues are the lightest. strongest and neatest made anywhere in the world. They are made in all weights and lengths and rank in price from 30 cents to $25 and more each, according to the quality and finish of tbe article.—Washington Star. The Leeson He Wanted. In his autobiography. "Ep From Slavery,” Booker T. Washington tells an amusing anecdote of an old colored man who during tbe days of slavery wanted to learn bow to play on the guitar. In bls desire to take guitar lessons be applied to one of bis young masters to teach him. But the young man. not having much faith in tbe ability of tbe slave to master the guitar at bls age. sought to discourage him by tilling him: "Uncle Jake. I will give you guitar lessons. But. Jake, I will have to charge you $3 for the first lesson, $2 for the second lesson and $1 for tbe third lesson. But I will charge you only 25 cents for tbe last lesson.” Uncle Jake answered: “AU right, boss, I hires you on dem terms. But, boss. I wants yer to be sure an give me dat las' lesson first.” A Startler. A gentleman whose hearing Is defective Is the owner of a dog that Is the terror of the neighborhood in which be lives. Tbe other day he was accosted by a friend, who said: "Good morning. Mr. H. Your wife made a very pleasant call on us last evening.” “I'm very sorry,” came the startling reply. “I'll see that it don't occur again, for I'm going to chain her up in future.”—London Telegraph. Why She Wore It. He (to the young widow)—Why do you wear such a heavy veil? 1 thought that you had an objection to ostentatious mourning. She—Oh. It Is only to hide ay smiles.—New York Bun.

POWER OF IMAGINATION. A Drn««i»t's Story ot How It Work<s In One Case. “The power of imagination,” said a New York druggist, "is past comprehension. Not long since a domestic in the employ of a prominent family came Into tbe store In great haste with a prescription which called tor two grains of morphine in two ounces of I aqua pure—that Is. distilled water—the ticcoripanylng direction rending, A teaspoonful every hour until the pain U allayed.' The patient for whom It was intended was tbe head of the family, who was suffering from a severe attack of nervous neuralgia. "Now, it so happened that the family physician who had written tbe prescription was behind tbe counter when the messenger arrived, having dropped in, as was his wont, on the way to his office. While I was putting up the prescription we chatted and laughed and joked and passed the time of day as only professional men are capable of doing. 1 filled the bottle, corked it carefully and labeled It properly, and when the retreating form of the domestic had disappeared out of the store door returned to my companionable physician visitor. As I did so I saw to rny amazement the two grains of morphine reposing upon the prescription scales. “ ‘Doctor,’ I ejaculated, ‘l've given . that girl nothing but distilled water. The morphine is here; look at it. What shall I do?’ “ 'Do?' be replied, with admirable sang froid. 'Do? Why. nothing at all. I'll wager you that the aqua pura will work as well without tbe opiate as with it.’ “ 'Agreed,' said I. And do you know,” concluded the pharmacist, "the doctor was right, and tbe patient with the nervous neuralgia—an exceptionally Intelligent and college bred man—was sleeping as peacefully as a babe after tbe second dose of the ‘mixture.’ Faith is everything where medicine is Concerned.”—Exchange. STALKED BY VULTURES. While a Man Wm Tralllug a Back the Birds Followed the Man. I met with a curious and not altogether pleasant experience, writes an Anglo-Indian correspondent who has done a good deal of large and small game sbootiug In India, when I was one day stalking a black buck. Between me and my quarry lay a large flat field of black cotton soil bordered by a vary low, straggling and thinly growing hedge of small babul trees. My only way so get a shot was to cross this, keeping the bushiest tree between me aud slie buck, who had not much to browse on aud was therefore seldom motionless. I proceeded to do the hundred yards on tbe flat of my stomach. This on loose, hard baked black eotton soil was no joke. I pushed my rifle on ahead: then, wriggling past It until the muzzle was near my knee. 1 would pass it on in front again, and so on. Progress was slow, and I was so absorbed that I failed to observe shadows crossing and recrossing my path and circling round until I had gone some 50 yards. Then the whirring of wings attracted my ears, and almost at tbe same moment a vulture landed ou the ground not 20 yards away. I looked up. The air was alive with these repulsive looking birds. Then It flashed across me that I was being stalked! Doubtless these birds were attracted by my extraordinary method of procedure and mistook me for a wounded or dying man making a flnal effort to reach some shady spot This was especially possible, as tbe experience occurred in a famine district where deaths by the wayside were not infrequent By looking up I bad evidently shown myself to the buck, for be was now off at full tilt I therefore took pot shot at the vulture at 20 yards, but did not allow for tbe sighting sufficiently and missed him. The thought of being waited for by a flock of vultures while very much alive and well was. to say tbe least, uncanny.—PaU Mall Gazette.

Burden Bearers of the East. In the east the camel today, as In the days of Solomon, Is the principal beast of burden in peace and In war. Across the pitiless desert he strides, his great pack nodding as be swings along. Down the old, old trail that winds through the bills of Lebanon, blinking, they come In pairs, bringing cedars to the sea. But the most remarkable of all freighters Is the eastern hamal, the human burden bearer. All or nearly ail the freight of Constantinople is handled by the hamal. He wears on his back a regular pack saddle, thin at the.top, where It rests on his shoulders, and thick at the bottom, where It ends at bis hips. A broad baud circles bis forehead, and when be leans forward the saddle presents a flat, level surface.—Munsey's Magazine. Cheap. Lover— You are getting prettier every day. Sweet Girl—Just now I am living on brown bread and water to improve my complexion. "How long can you keep that up?" "Oh Indefinitely." "Then let's get married."—Exchange. Comparing Notes.

FRIGHTENED HIS WIFE. Forty Ceata Almost the Cause of a Catastrophe. Before Mrs. Browley was married she scoffed at the misguided girls and women who kept personal accounts. Her argument was that If you know how much money you had and It was ail gone what was the use of piling on the anguish by having your folly and extravagance in black and white to stare you in the face, especially as you had no more money at tbe end of the month than you bad without an account book? But since she hns been running a house she has achieved not one but nearly a dozen account books. There is one devoted to the grocery man. another to the butcher, personal accounts take a third, and so on till she spends nearly all her glad young life balancing sums. It is a matter of pride with her that they shall come out even, and so there was woe last month when 40 cents refused to be accounted for. She and Mr. Browley had a grave and lengthy discussion over the missing 40. Each accused tbe other of frivollng the sum away and neglecting to enter It on tlie proper book. "Sundries.” Mr. Browley insisted strenuously be was not guilty. Mrs. Browley looked pained and urged him to confess. He left for down town vowing vengeance. It was late that afternoon when Mrs. Browley was entertaining a roomful of aristocratic callers that a telegraph boy appeared. The maid brought in tbe fatal yellow envelope, and at once the bride knew her busband had been fatally injured and was sending for her. Some one revived her with smelling salis. a lady in purple velvet fanned her with a hastily snatched lamp shade, and a third visitor with more presence of mind than tbe rest opened tlie telegram. Tbe message read: “Honest, now, what did you do with that 40 cents?”—Chicago News. The Breton Peasant. If there Is a country where the tradition of hatred of "tbe Englishman” as a hereditary enemy still holds it is in Catholic Brittany. In the eyes of the Breton peasants and fishermen tbe Englishman is the enemy with whom they have fought battles and will tight them again. That is to say, tbe Englishman stands for the typical sailor of a man-of-war or torpedo boat, whom they will fight when the time comes for the attack, but no one thinks of him as a man. The enemy is a unit of war, something outside ordinary life, a being in uniform whom It is glorious to kill. He is "the enemy”—something which will do great mischief to France if one does not take care, something which must be much more terrible and dangerous than they can imagine, since all the men of France lose the best years of their youth in learning to kill this eventual adversary. If ever the peasants come clearly to realize that the only use of war is to kill people like themselves; if ever each soldier becomes capable of imagining what the shock of two armies is and by what complicated series of lies and intrigues peoples are brought to the point of killing each other, tbe work of peace congresses will be wonderfully simplified.—Contemporary Review.

Readlna *■ a Care. The practice of reading aloud at reg ular intervals is of great benefit to any one affected with a chest complaint. In all cases of lung trouble it is important to indulge in those exercises by which the chest is in part filled or emptied of air. and reading aloud, singing and whistling are three of those exercises. There are many who cannot sing, and we do not expect the fair sex to whistle, but reading aloud can be practiced by all. Care must be taken not to overdo it, of course, and the body should be In such a position as to allow the chest to have free play. Reading aloud, if we pay attention to what we are doing, will not only be beneficial from the standpoint of health, but will also have the effect of making us better speakers by teaching us proper modulations of the voice and by increasing our knowledge. This Is where It has the advantage over whistling and singing. Altogether Different. Suitor—l have come to ask you for your daughter’s hand.
