Many physicians in Germany and England, as well as in the United States and Canada, are referring their Hav-Fever and Asthma patients to Dr. P. Harold Hayes, of Buffalo, N. Y., whose success in curing these diseases has attracted their attention. A man should always be supplied with just enough work and trouble to keep his mind off the pimple on his nose.—Atchison Globe. YOUNQ AT SIXTY. Serene comfort and happiness in advanced years are realized by compara* tively few women. Their hard lives, their liability to aerioas troubles on account of their peculiar organism and their profound ignorance concerning themselves, all combine to shorten the period of usefulness and fill their later years with suffering. Mrs. Pink ham has done much to make women strong. She has given advice to many that has shown them how to guard against disease and retain vigorous health in old age. From every corner of the earth there is constantly coming the most convincing statements from women, showing the efficacy of Lydia E. Pink ham’s Vegetable Compound in overcoming female ilia Here is a letter from Mrs. J. C. Orzns, of 220 Horner St., Johnstown, Pa., which is earnest and straight to the point: 41 D&r Mrs. Pinkuam:—I feel it my •duty to tell all suffering women that I think your remedies are wonderful. I had trouble with my head, dizzy spells and hot flashes. Feet and hands were cold, was very nervous, could not sleep well, had kidney trouble, pain in ovaries and congestion of the womb. 8ince taking your remedies 1 am better every way My head trouble is all gone, have no pain in ovaries, and am cured of womb trouble. I can eat and aleep well and am gaining in flesh. I ' consider your medicine the best to be had for female troubles.” The present Mrs. Pinkham’s experience in treating female ills is unparallel led, for years she worked side by aide with Mrs. Lydia E. Pink ham, and for sometime past has had sole charge of the correspondence department of her great business, treating by letter aa many aa a hundred thousand alllag women during a single year. _ SHOOT “Winchester imped' Anor Gun Shells

THE WORLD’S LAUNDRIES, j The Japanese rip apart their gar- ' merits before washing them and, in- j stead of ironing them, they lay them while wet on a fiat board and stand this up against the house to dry. The method is quite satisfactory, for not only are there no wrinkles left, but some of the materials have quite a luster. In Egypt washing is done mostly by men. who stand naked on the banks of the Nile and pound the wet clothes on the smooth stones at the river’s brink till the dirt is removed from them. French women pound the nlotheswith paddles in the same way as the Egyptians upon the stones beside a rtV,er. flfiamest women wear their gowns while bathing and wash them in the river while enjoying their bath. When they have finished they go up the steps of their fioating houses and. having wrapped a sheet round themselves, they wring the water out of their wet clothing and hang them up to dTy. The hardest worked laundresses in the world are, no doubt, the Coreans. As their husbands generally give them about a dozen dresses to wash and every man wears hugely baggy pantaloons, which come up to his neck like those of a clown, they have plenty to do. Generally the washing is done in cold water and very often in a stream or river. FOR THE CYCLIST. ( A wheel with a rigid frame is the cyclist’s firm friend.

...—- Wbat Will Become of Chine f None can foresee the outcome of the quarrel between foreign powers over the division of China. It is interesting to watch the going to pieces of this ancient but unprogressive race. Many people in America are also going to pieces because of dyspepsia, con etipation, plood, liver and stomach diseases. »te living too fast, but strength, vigor and good health can be retained if we keep off and cure the above diseases with Hostetter's Stomach Bittern.

There is a powder to be shaken into the shoes called Alien's Foot-Ease, invented by Allen 8. Olmstead, Le Roy, N. Y.. which druggists and shoe dealers say is the best thing they have ever sold to cure swollen, burning, sore and tender or aching feet. Some dealers claim that it makes tight or new shoes feel easy. It certainly will cure cornsand bunions and relieve instantly sweating, hot or smarting feel:. Allen's Foot-Ease costs only a quarter, and the inventor will send a sample free to any address.
