** OhJ Dear Pm so Tirer, ”..

WM' 1 '! \ H) Ilf \F i x BSq oJI h L l //' i The ordinary every-day life of most of our women is a ceaseless treadmill of work. » How much harder the daily tasks become when some derangement of the female organs makes every movement painful and keeps the nervous system all unstrung ! One day she is wretched and utterly miserable; in a day of two she is better and laughs at her fears, thinking there is nothing much the matter after all; but before night the deadly backache reappears, the limbs tremble, the lips twitch —it seems as though all the imps of Satan were clutching her vitals; she goes to pieces and is flat on her back. No woman ought to arrive at this terrible state of misery, because these symptoms are a sure forerunner of womb troubles.- She must remember that Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is almost an infallible cure for all female ills, such as irregularity of periods, which cause weak stomach, sick headache, etc., displacements and inflammation of the womb, or any of the multitudes of illnesses which beset the female organism. Mrs. Gooden wrote to Mrs. Pinkham when she was In great trouble. Her letter tells the result. “ Dear Mrs. Pinkham:--! am very grateful to you for your kindness and the interest you have taken in me, ana truly believe that your medicines I"" "" -Wirr'i": - " doctors in the world. My troubles began with inflammation and hemorrhages from the kidneys, then inflammation, congestion and falling of the womb, inflammation of the ovaries. I underwent local 'w -Jwl treatment every day for some time; then, after nearly flEggy nigS? two months, the doctor gave me permission to go z \ f back to work. I went back, but in less than a week ig* / was compelled to give up and go to bed. On break■EI / ing down the second time, I decided to let doctors flgS J and medicines alone and try your remedies. Before the first bottle was gone I felt the effects of it. Three bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable — Compound and a package of Sanative Wash did me more good than all the doctors’ treatments and Ihi ' '"' u ' medicine. I have gained twelve pounds during the last two months and am better in every ’fray. Thanking you for your kind advice and attention, I remain. Yours gratefully, “ MRS. E. J.

Danes Return to the Farms.

The Howard association has published an Interesting leaflet entitled “Back to the Land—Denmark’s Example.” In that country there is an exodus of the population of the towns back to the land. Partly by state aid and partly by private enterprise 2,000 square miles of waste lands have been reclaimed, and five eighths of the national territory is possessed by small freeholders and peasants. Above a hundred people's high schools have been established, where peasantry and working classes of ages from 18 to 25 get board and education for 10 shillings per week. The Danish farmers have formed co-operative societies for the collection, sale and export of their produce. Danish university and college students have instituted throughout the rural districts free lectures, evening lessons and committees for promoting popular amusements. In almost evey village a,public hall has been erected for recreation aud social gatherings. In villages where the high school has obtained Influence neither drinking, gambling nor gross breaches of morals are to be met with; yet the villages are foud of games, dancing, sports and other recreations. And what is the result? Denmark has become the second country in the world in regard to average wealth pethead, although there are very few rich men. She annually supplies the British market with more than 1,000,000 hundredweight of buttons and the same amount of bacon, about 200,000,000 eggs and scores of thousands of pigs, cattle and horses. London Truth.

Good Reason.

“Well, little chap,” said the stranger tn the family, picking up one of the children, “what are you going to be when you are a man?” “Nufiln,” said the child. “Nothing? Why?” asked the stranger. “Because,” said the child, “I am a little girl.”—Tit-Bits.

Busy Girl.

“Penelope .Tones Is an active club member, isn’t she?” “Active? I think »o. She has already this month resigned from three clubs and started four new ones.”—lndianapolis Journal.

Mudies of the Gutter.

A particularly satisfactory feature of tfiTe growth of free libraries in London is the gradual suppression of soiqe curious circulating libraries, which for many years have been doing great harm. These circulating libraries Were carried on—and some are stiil from stalls in the East-end. The books were all of the blood-and-thuuder variety, in which ihe Hooligan and criminal are |»otlieosized, and the police are the hrfftral enemies of the hero. The stall chargii^ u 4 out these noxious volumes, reading aikpence for the privilege of the free libraPNiee for deposit. Now, ed the trade— practically ruin-

The Twentieth C.

We now' stand at the thres... twentieth century, and the nin<- so f the a thing of. the past. It will, , s known as the century of inventnz. discovery, and among somi of the gl,j est of these, we cap truthfully mention Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, the cele- ; brated remedy for all ailments arising front a weak or disordered stomach, such as dyspepsia, indigestion, flatulency, constipation and biliousness.

Stedman’s "Offense.”

Edmund Clarence Stedmfln was the “man of the year’’ at the Authors' the other night, when several nice things were said of the poet-banker. Richard Henry Stoddard, -who used to be an apprentice in an iron foundry and probably regrets entering the literary shop, arose. on the him “boy.” Edmund Clarence Stoddard told of the day when Bayard'Wytor, in the. Tribune office, whence have been graduated so many shining lights, called him over to took at a poem in' manuscript. “It strikes me as being pretty good,” remarked the great traveler, passing it along. “What do you think of it? Worth printing?” For a time the discerning editorial mind lingered in doubt, but the final verdict was in favor of acceptance. The author was one of Yale’s bad boys—Edmund . Clarence Stedman—and the poem, if I mistake not, was “The Diamond Wedding” or “The Ballad of Lager Bier.”—Victor Smith in the New York Press.

A Hitch Mark.

The New York Almanac for 1901, issued by Chas. H. Fletcher of New York City, has set a high mark for similar publications during the new century, and shows remarkable enterprise on the part of the publisher when we consider that it is intended solely for free distribution. The uuhierous publications of this character are usually gotten up with the single idea of cheapness, while the thought of expense has certainly been set aside in the case of the New York Almanac. Tbe artistic colorings of the cover, the accuracy of its calendars and its fund of information all go to make its well worthy of perusal and preservation. It has innumerable hints for mothers as to the care of children. A unique page is the “Baby’s Record” page, which is in blank, to be filled in with baby’s name, date of birth, cut first tooth, etc. The whole is a very creditable piece of work and may be procured .at any drug stare or direct on request, free.

No Real Dislike.

“You announced that, you had no dislike for the young man who threatened to dominate your party .and depose you from your leadership.” “I did,” answered the professional boss. “And you really meant every word of it?” “Every word. Those was no reason in the world why I should dislike him. I knew I could keep him from winning if he seemed to be getting dangerous.”—Washington Star.

It is made of pure selected grain and is healthful, nourishing and appetising It has none of the bad effects <f coffee, yet it is just as pleasant to the taste, and when proi>erly prepared can’t ► e told from the finest coffees.

Moderat ton in Exercise.

I Too much is said in extolling the virtues of exercise. In moderation it I is beneficial, but many of the public have strange ideas of moderation in such matters. A clerk will work all day with his head and work with his legs all night. He thinks the tong walk is good for him. The fresh air is, but in the exercise he is not conserving his energy as he should do to’make his life tong. Mental and bodily energy come to the same thing at the finish. Having freely drawn upon the stock of one you must not then tap the other with the idea that it is beneficial, for it is not. They have a common source. Mr. Chamberlain, who. it will be admitted, lives as wearing a life as most people, mentally, takes no exercise whatever, and thrives upon abstinence

from it, says the London Mail. It is palpable that he dot's. The colonial secretary is rarely indisposed. Therefore, the multitude regard him as a <Menie phenomenon. He Is nothing that -kind. It is extremely probable he wofKoxercised himself very much according of be so well. By living is conserving e system he adopts he extent. Siergy to the fullest Moderation is a g

and should be practice, rule in life tail, and especially in tliv.^ ve ry de . eating. A majority of pers<^‘ er O f years off their lives through > much, while all the time they are unL , i the impression that they are indeed be-'' ing strictly moderate. At the end of the nineteenth century the public does hot know' when it has eaten enough.

What Do the children Drink?

Don’t give them tea or'- -aqffp ( .; Have you tried the new food ’ druk Pq ii P a GRAIN-0? It is delicious and nourish ing and takes the place of coffee. The more Grain-0 you give the children the more health you distribute through their systems. Grain-0 is made of pure grains, and when properly prepared tastes like the choice grades of coffee, but costs about 14 as much. All grocers sell it. 15c and 25c.
