If you had seen me a year ago, before I began taking LydiaE.-lMntctiani’s Vegetable Compound, and had noticed the sunken eyes, sallow complexion, and general emaciated condition, and coniSared that person with me as I am toay, robust, hearty *and well, you would not wonder that I feel thankful to you and your wonderful medicine, which restored me to new life and health in five months, and saved me from an awful operation.”—Miss Irene HAPaooD, 1023 Sandwich St Windsor, Ont. fbOOO forfeit If original of above letter proving g'eiHitfanefjßcannot bo produced.

DISPOSED OF GARBAGE.

How Two French Cities Manage to Keep the Streets Clean. In the clfy of Lyons, France, no special means have ever been employed for the disposition of garbage/, says the Municipal Journal and Engineer. The inhabitants of the. city generally live in apartments,. They dump their garbage into large tubs which are placed In the entrance to the building and which, when full, are lef torF'the curb of the street to be in carts that call dally J before o’clock a. m. The contractors,, wjjp carry off this garbage are, free : jto do what they please with, it. The work costs the city annually about $55,633. " The streets of Lyons are * swept three times a week with heavy hickory brooms. They are washed dally with water driven from hydrants through a long hose. The water Is thus squirt-' ed Into the cracks between the stones, and whatever refuse may remain after the sweeping Is thus drained off into the sewers. All the work of cleaning the streets is done by manual labor, no machines being used. The two rivers Rhone and Saone flow through the cify,’ arid the waste water from the apartments is carried off into one of them by sewers, according to the proximity to one or the other of the streams. , The exact cost per cubic foor 6r per ton of removing and destroying garbage is not knwn. In Paris, where-the garbage was burned, the entire oper-ation-removing, interest on plant at 2 per cent*—costs 48 cents a ton. The rubbish generally receives the careful attention of ragpickers and after it has been conveyed to the incinerator a number of ragpickers are authorized, TiSHa "special privilege, :to go through the mass of debrjs and appropriate what they find, such as, {fits of tin, sardine boxes, corks, pieces oCglasS arid bottles, scraps of pap'er, woo<J, etc. All the scraps thus rescued from the incinerator find ready purchasers—the tip. and solder remaining on the tin are used in the manufacture of. toys for children; the corks are ground up and'reconstructed into cork, bark or are serit to linoleum factories. The worlj of-jricking over the rubljlsh for salable .“things will hereafter be confined to employes of the city.

He explained that he had intended tri retire and make formal declaration to that effect on his sixtieth birthday, but had been-persuaded to stay at the helm until. after . the next presidential campaign. He" felt, he'said, that lie had performed sufficient service 'for tjie party to be released from 'further derive duty, and’ that it was .Irisj dnwre henceforth to devote more'time- J to his personal affairs and professional:-duties than, has been afforded through-his connection with politics. • -■-.

THE BIGGEST MAJORITY.

Ifolitical Race in Which’Pennsylvania at Present Leads Texas. In 1868, at the first national election after die close of the Civil War, the Republicans carried' Pennsylvania by 28,000 'majority, and’ Kentucky, then the strongest of the Democratic .States, gave a majority of 713,000. Texas had not been readmitted to the Union, its reconstruction not being complete. In tho succeeding presidential election, tiiat of 1872, .Pennsylvania rolled up a majority monumental for that ,of t 135,000 for the Republicans, and Texas went Democratic by 16,000. In 1876 Texas gave 60,000 Democratic majority; Pennsylvania went Republican by 18,000. In 1880 the Republican majority in Pennsylvania M was ’3’7,000; ‘ the Democratic majo/ity in Texas was 98,000, Texas leading all oijier States in majority. - " In 1884 Pennsylvania gave 81,000 Republican majority and Texas 132,000 Democratic —Texas still further ahead. In 1888 Pennsylvania gave 80,000 Republican majority and Texas 146,000 Democratic —Texas still further ahead. In 1892 Pennsylvania gave 63,000 Republican and Texas 140,000 Democratic majority. In 1896 Pennsylvania shot ahead with 295,000 Republican majority, but Texas was not very, far behind with 202,000 majority for the Democrats. In 1900 the Republicans carried Pennsylvania by 288,000 and the. Democrats carried Texas by 146,01|p —Pennsylvania far in the lead. Of these two States, one Intensely Republican arid the other overwhelmingly Democratic, the two parties are likely to depend this year for their banner majorities; and under existing conditions it Is not thought probable that the Democratic majority in Texas will fall below 200,000, whatever may be the’ result in Pennsylvania-.

NAVY NEEDS MEN.

Not Enough Officers and Sailors to Man American War Vessels. Secretary Paul Morton will require all of the genius with which he 4s accredited if h'>,is to dispose of all of the serious problems that will come up within the,next few months without any essentia) decrease Jj} the effiepey of the navy. Because of the rate at which the navy le growing the old question of a shortage pt officers has presented itself in much more aggravated form than ever before. With it is the new problem of a abortage of-men, which is complicated by the danger, due to a ruling from the Comptroller of the Treasury, that it may be impossible to recruit the enlisted force up to the number required to man the ships. _ . - - . . There Is a grave danger that within the next three or four months several warships which are in no need of repairs., may have to be put out of commission, for no other reason than that officers and men capnot be provided for them. There is not a ship in the American nnvy that is not short of officers Que of the first messages the President will send to Congress will be an urgent request that the limit of the enlisted force in the navy be increased, mid that new regulation; tor the enlistment of men be provide!. -

Put His Foot In It.

He came in late, stepped in without ringing, and, striding softly into the parlor,, dropped into an arm chair with the easy grace of a young man who Is accustomed to the program. “By Jove!” ho said to the figure Bitting In the dim obscurity on the sofa. “By Jove! I thought I was never going to see you alone, again.
