Many women and doctors do not recognize the real symptoms of derangement of the female organs until too late. “ I had terrible pains along my spinal cord for two years and suffered dreadfully. I was given different medicines, wore plasters; none of these things helped me. Beading of the cures that Lydia £2. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has brought about, I somehow felt that it was what I needed and bought a bottle to take. How glad I am that I did so; two bottles brought me immense relief, and after using three bottles more 1 felt new life and blood surging through my veins. It seemed as though there had been a regular house cleaning through my system, that all the sickness and poison had been taken out and new life given me Instead. I have advised dozens of my friends to use Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. Good health is indispensable to complete happiness, and s Lydia E.

TRIBUTE TO THE MORNING NAP.
Protest Against the Ancient Motion of Hieing Karljr. The time of rising in the morning has not, in fact, kept step with the progress of other events. The old custom of early rising and breakfasting by candle light during the season of short days still prevails, although the need has largely passed away. Forty years ago farm work began with the break of the day. .and laboring people were expected to be In shops and factories at 5 o’clock in the morning the year round.. The agitation for a shorter day first reduced the hours to ten and later to nine and eight. But it Is doubtful if the hours given to sleep have increased as much as the hours of work have ceased; And in particular the time of rising is still where it was when ten and twelve hours of labor were demanded. This is wrong. There is nothing more conducive to health, good morals and good temper than a nap in the morning. It rounds out the night’s sleep and imparts a satisfaction which is a considerable factor in the day’s work. There is nothing like sleep to tone up the nerves. It is better than the best tonic, and with the nerves in good condition the whole man or woman is prepared to meet the struggles and competition that modern life brings. Sociologists also contend that If people would sleep more there would be less crime. Another argument In favor of longer hours of rest Is the saving that would be made in light and fuel. Less coal would be burned and less gas or other illuminants would be consumed. And this Is an argument which will appeal at the present time to every housekeeper when the necessity for economy Is being enforced so sharply. There are early closing movements. Why not a late rising movement? All methods of work and business have been changed during the last two generations and they are still changing. A man with the help of modern machinery accomplishes many times more In a shorter time than his grandfather dkl. Why, then, should he get up In the morning at the same time Ills grandfather did and find his energies used up before noon hour? The morning nap will cure this and the effort to establish it can be helped along with a clear conscience.—Philadelphia Press.
Wonders.

Only a few centuries' ago a man l.ad to live to be 100 and read tine print without glasses in order to be-a wonder; but now a man of 40 who can digest his food without the help of drugs is a wonder. As the Sacred Writ has it, “Wonders never cease.”—Life.
“The Proof of the Padding Lies in the Eating."
The doctors are dumbfounded, the druggists astonished, and the people excited and Joyful over the wonderful cures nnd tremendous sales of the great Remedy, St. Jacobs Oil. Every case of Rheumatism—some of many years’ standing—has given way to this powerful remedy. Thousands of certificates like the following can be furnished as to its value: George Scleyer, Publisher of the Chilton. Wis. T “V-olkabote,” used St. Jacobs Oil for “almost unbearable pains in the back, which had completely prostrated him.” A few applications cured him entirely. Mrs. Fred Eberle, Bellaire, 0., was for a long time severely troubled with’Rheumatism. St Jacobs Oil instantly relieved and entirely cured her. Rev. Dr. B. Pick, of Rochester, N. Y., suffered so, intensely from Rheumatic pains that he was unable to preach. Several applications.from a bottle of St. Jacobs Oil “relieved him.” F. Radder, Cleveland, Ohio, says: “Two applications of St. Jacobs Oil cured me of great and long-continued puin in my foot.” Messrs. O. L. Brundage and Son, Druggists, Muskegon, Mich., write:—“St. Jacobs Oil has a wonderful sale. We sold eight bottles at retail yesterday. This will give you some idea of how well it is liked in this sectiou.” Mr. Louis Hinkel, of East Poesten, Kill, N. Y., says:—“l call St. Jacobs Oil the best liniment \ ever used. It cured me of Rheumatism and pain in the back.” Herman Rittuer, Manchester, N. H.: —“I hnve tried St. Jacobs Oil, and found It excellent. AJI those who have purchased it speak of It os ‘simply incomparable.' ” Geo. G. Erffle, Palestine, Ill.:—-“I was in bed suffering from a swollen leg. I used St. Jncohs Oil, its effect was wonderful. The following day I attended to my business again.” Dr. Otto Fuls, Rending, 0., writes:— “The sale of St. Jacobs Oil is constantly increasing; it is praised by every body,s and never fuils to give entire satisfaction.”
Food Experiment.
Mr. Wiley, the great governinent chemist, will conduct a novel experiment in Washington, in the shape of a restaurant where the effects of various styles of food will be tested. He will feed his guests on strictly pure food for n while and then will try them with adulterated eatables. He will weigh his subjects morning and night and hopes to discover which foods are most wholesome and to determine to what extent adulterated foods arc harmful.

Convincing Proof.
Case No. 41,206.—Capt Alfred G. Bigler of Hose Company No. 4, Canton, Ohio, says: “1 had a weak back ever since i* was a boy, and about blx years ago the cause developed into rather a bad case of kidney complaint. IT was not a little backache now and then, but backache which caused actual suffering day and night, and the harder I tried to get rid of it the worse it became. “When the attacks were in the acute stage it was difficult to sit down, and when down it was just as hard to regain an erect position, on account of the twinges of pain in the kidneys. I can only describe some of the pangs as similar to that received from a knife thrust. “In time, distressing and terribly inconvenient urinary weakness resulted, causing annoying embarrassment during the day and loss of sleep during the night. "I took everything which came to my notice from reading, from observation, and which my friends and acquaintances advised. I consulted physicians, but none of them were able to relieve the trouble, let alone stop it “It became so well known that I bad a pronounced case of kidney complaint that I often received circulars from medical companies offering to cure me, and one day eighteen letters were handed to me by the mall carrier. “When Doan’s Kidney Pills attracted my attention I wanted th try them, just as, I had tried everything else, and Mrs. Bigler went to Durban & Wright Co.’s drug store for a box. Belief followed. “I knew after a dose or two that the medicine was acting directly on the kidneys from the altered condition of the kidney secretions, and, encouraged, I continued the treatment. Finally, the backache and other complications stopped. “Let me sum up my opinion about Doan’s Kidney Pills by saying I would willingly pay one month’s wages for a box of them if I could not buy them for less. You can refer anyone to me about Doan’s Kidney Pills and I will convince them that they act just as represented.” Four Years After. “Lapse of time has strengthened my appreciation of Doan’s Kidney Pills. I gave this remedy my unqualified indorsement in the summer of 1890, because of the results I obtained from a course of the treatment. I can now adl to my original indorsement the experience of a number of others who are just as enthusiastic, when they express their opinion of Doan’s Kidney Pills, as I.” A FREE TBIAL of this great kidney medicine which cured Mr. Bigler will be mailed on application to any part of the United States.

In His "Weakes' Part,”
Bishop David Sessums, of New Orleans, tells a quaint story—the experience of a Southern clergyman. The clergyman, a Mr. Bobbett, had returned to a little town where he had been a minister many years before. To his amazement he found, as sexton of his old church, the same antebellum darky who had tilled that post during his Incumbency. “Well, Uncle Pete, are you still alive?” the minister asked. “Jes’ so-so, Mdrs’ Bobbett. I’m pow’ful troubled with the rlieumatiz, but thank the Lo’d I can still hold my bald up and my limbs ain’t gone back on me yit. But, Mars’ Bobbett, how is you? I don’ think you looking as peart as you used to do.” Bobbett shook his head, says the New York Times. He was suffering from the aftermath of a severe attack of nervous exhaustion, w'hich found proof of its presence in racking headaches. “I suffer a good deal with my head. Uncle Pete,” he answered. “Sometimes it feels like it would set me crazy.” Old Pete nodded his head in sympathy.’ “That’s Jes’ so. Mars’ Bobbett," he answered, “I always have said that illness takes a man in his weakes’ spot. ’Deed, Mars’ Bobbett, it’s a fac’.” The Rev. Mr. Bobbett always refers to his head as his “weakes’ part.”

1.000 YEARS OLD.”
Dlsoorerr of a Wooden Boat in Ireland at Depth of Sixteen Feet, " A discovery of great archaeological Importance was recently made by a laborer engaged in cutting turf from a bog near Knock Mulltown, County Galway, Ireland. At a depth of sixteen feet he came npon a boat hewn out of a single piece of oak and estimated to be at least 1,000 years old. Notwithstanding Its age, it Is singularly well preserved. In shape it very greatly resembles the present day canoe, only many times the size of that craft in use to-day. It is forty-eight feet long, about three feet wide, and two and onehalf feet deep. The boat looks as though two, or at moist three, men might lift ft, but when weighed shortly after its excavation It drew the beam down to something over two tons, Sir Thomas Esmonde, Bart., has purchased this valuable find for presentation to the Boyal Brttsh academy, where it will hold a place of honer as one of the most valuable of their pieces of antiquity. Archaeologists claim that this boat belongs to the time of the cavedwellers. Experts recognize five classes of craft in the evolution of ships. First comes the primitive raft of the aborigines. then the canoe, crudely hollowed out of a tree trunk; next came canoes of wood stitched together with sinews; then plank boats stiffened with ribs, and finally vessels in which the framework was first set up and the timbers added afterwards. The boat found in Ireland represents the second period. Sir Thomas says: “Some wooden plies were also found near the boat, which may have formed part of the platform or landing place alongside of which it was stored. In the distant ages, to which we may date, this boat, the Mulltown bog must have been a swamp inhabited by lake-dwellers. The country round about must have been comparatively thickly populated, judging from the number of Duns still to be seen on all sides, and judging also from the number of objects of stone and bronze which have been found in»*the locality from time to time. “A very beautiful bronze spearhead o i unusual form and finish was found near the place sometime since. It is now In the collection of Dr. Thomas Costello of Tuam. A bronze dish was also discovered there comparatively recently, but, unfortunately, It has since disapappeared and cannot be*traced. I mention these finds as evidence that the locality of the boat was at one time a populous center, whose people were not without skill as craftsmen.” —Philadelphia Times.

The Hansons are Happy.
Ashley, N. D., Dec. B.—Cured of that most dangerous of all diseases, Rheumatism of the Heart, J. H. Hanson of this place loses no opportunity of singing the praises of Dodd’s Kidney Pills. “I am able to work again,” says Mr. Hanson. “And am feeling better than I have for five years. Broken down and fairly used up and suffering from Rheumatism of .the Heart and Dropsy I was In very bad shape. “Then I started taking Dodd'c Kidney Pills and—well, you can see how I look and I feel as well as I look. My Rheumatism Is gone and the Dropsy with it. “I don’t think they’ll ever bother me again, but if they do I’ll just get some more of Dodd’s Kidney Pills. I know that will fix them.” Mrs. Hanson, too, whose health was far from good, took the same remedy and she Joins with her husband In recommending Dodd’s Kidney Pills.

Hartman, Columbus, Ohio: Dear Sin—“ The young girl who used the Peruna was suffering from laryngitis and loss of voice. The result Of the treatment was most satisfactory. She found great relief, and after further use of the medicine we hope to be able to say she Is entirely cured. ” —Sisters of Charity. The young girl was under the care of the Sisters of Charity and used Peruna for catarrh of the’ throat with good results as the above letter testifies.
