The turning point
in woman's life brings peculiar
weaknesses and ailments. DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription
brings relief and cure. It is a
powerful, invigorating, restorative
tonic and nervine. 1t imparts
strength to the whole system in
general, and to the uterine organs
and appendages in particular.
"Run-down," debilitated and deli
cate women need it. It's legiti-
mate medicine purely vegetable,
perfectly harmless. It's guaranteed
to give satisfaction in every case, or
money refunded. Nothing else does
as much. You only pay for the
good you get. Can you ask more2
As a regulator and promoter Of
functional action, at that critical
period of change from girlhood to
womanhood, "Favorite Prescrip-
ton" is a perfectly safe remedial
agent, and can produce only good
results. 1t is equally efficacious and
valuable in its effects when taken
for those disorders and derange-
ments incident to that later and
most critical period, known as "The
Change of Life"

Two foods CT an Emperor.

When he is in Berlin Emperor William
is as democratic us you could wish; he
drives, rides, and walks about as freely
as old Haroun Aliaschid ever did, and he
doesn't, at all mind stopping now and
again to chat with common folk. But
when he retircs to Potsdam, where his
private residence is, he is quite differ
ent person. At Potsdam he is as cxclu-
sive as a scared turtle. The doors of his
palace-yes, and the gates Of his park
are closed against everybody and he
shuns that recognition which he else
where invites. 1t is hard, however, to
keep the small boy out of what he ought
not to be in. Three or four urchins
made practice of climbing the wall in
closing the imperial park and of playing
at soldiers under the splendid trees. AS
luck would have it, the Emperor and
Empress rode one morning in that partic-
ular part of the park and suddenly came
upon the little ragamufiins. Instead Of
throwing away their broomsticks and
slSedaddling, the urchins wheeled into
line, presented arms. and saluted the i'm
perial couple. William was simply de-
lighted and he told the boys that he
would remember them. So he did,. As
certaining who they were and that they
were children of poor people, he has sent
them to Q military school and will have
them educated at his private cost.

A rouR-YEAnoLD SMOKER.
Began Using Tobacco When He Was
Seven Months Old.

Winfield Doran is known as the smok-
ing baby OF Trenton. He was 4 years
old last May, and he has been using
the weed for over three years and half.
He is bright boy, with big black eyes
and round rosy cheeks. His picture
could be used to adorn juvenile maya
zine as good specimen of a happy and
healthy American boy. His mother is
buxom, good-natured woman. The
father, W. I. Doran, is a small, thin man,
and for many years he has been an in
veterate smoker. The taste for tobacco
was impaired to the baby, Winfield, and
he began putting tobacco smoke when
only seven months old. The Dorans re-
side at 303 South Warren street, and keep
boarders. The baby was the pet of the
household and the pride of the bachelor
boarders, who devoted each evening to
nursing him. While listening to the
nursery songs he learned to smoke. The
men would allow him to puff on their
pipes and were astonished 70 find it did
not make him sick
When he was months old he smoked
rank pipe full of tobacco and never as
much as made face. At ten months he
was an accomplished smoker of the pipe.
His appetite for tobacco was found to be
normal one. He had every appearance
of thriving under it. The neighbors were
shocked and many of them indignant,
and DR.. Elmer Rogers was called. He
discovered no traces of nicotine poison
ing, and found that the tobacco had a
soothing effect on the child, who was
wcaned early, but never denied pipe
full of tobacco every day. Now he tips
the beam at forty-five pounds.
Both mother and father are proud of
this precocious youngster, and they never
tire reciting "reminiscences, of their boys
career as smoker. During the last two
years they have encouraged him to smoke
cigars in preference to the pipe. This
is precaution that they have taken at
the request of the physician, who thought
that the nicotine deposits in old pipes
might eventually be hurtful. The boy
evidently Graves the effect of the poison,
because the boy will not smoke new
clay pipe or new brier pipe, preferring
to get one that has been we'll saturated
with nicotine. He prefers strong cigars,
and is a fine judge Of them. He attracted
much attention when he was pushed
about in baby coach with a black pipe
in his mouth, smoking and putting like a
veteran. He can now be frequently seen
sitting on the steps of his fathers house
smoking cigar.
The baby smoker differs from the ma
jority of the prodigious smokers in so
much that he has never smoked cigar
ette. The odor of the paper is distaste-
full to him, and he has been constantly
instructed to avoid the cigarette as he
would so much poison.
The boy has never been known to be
sick, and Dr. e. Rogers is of the opinion
that it is only matter of few years
when he will have his appetite for tobacco
appeased and will give up smoking.
Since the boy has been smoking he has
watched him almost daily with a view
of discovering the first symptom of nico-
tine poisoning, and has found nothing.

the shadow Of this sleeping old man. But
this shadow was ever between them-it
was honor.
His eyes, as if lost in thought, were
fixed straight before him on the curtain
which was opposite the chimney.
All at once this curtain was noiselessly
raised, and Cora presented herself under
the pile of curtains, her brow surmounted
with her rich coiffure.
She threw rapid glance over the room,
and after moments pause let the curtain
fall gently, and advanced directly toward
Eugene, who stood stupefied and immov-
able.
She took both his hands, without
speaking, looked at him steadily, throw
ing q rapid glance on her husband, who
still slept, and, standing on tlptoe, offered
her lips to the young man.
Bewildered utterly, and forgetting all
else, he stopped down and imprinted Q
kiss on her lips. -.
At that very moment her husband made
sudden movement and walked up;
but the same instant she was standing
before him, her hands resting on little
card table, and smiling upon him, sh'
said:
HGood-morning, my dearl"
He murmured few words of apology,
but she laughingly pushed him back on
the divan.

Her husband obeyed.
She passed out through the hall. The
young man, pale as a specter, followed
her.
Passing under the outer curtain, she
turned toward him with wild liz hit burn
ing in her eyes. Then, before she was
lost in the crowd, she whispered, in a
low. thrilling voice:
There is the crime?"

Dragon-Tre

The vegetable and plant life on the
Canary Islands has not SO luxurious q
growth as that which is found on the
Madeiras; nevertheless there is a great
variety of interesting plants which will
repay the attention of botanists, and
some parts of the islands are like beauti
full gardens.
Of all the botanical wonders which
can be seen there, the one which il
perhaps most worthy of special mention
is the dragon tree. Alexander Won Hum
boldt was the first one to direct attention
to this gigantic tree.
The example of this kind of tree which
was measured by him was in the garden
region of Oratova, on the northern coast
of the island of Teneriffe, and had a
trunk circumference of seventy mine feet.
Humboldt reckoned its age to be ten
thousand years, but the latest critical re-
searches prove that he placed the age
much too high.
The next largest tree of this species,
which is known to-day, is the dragon
tree of Icod de los Binos, on the western
coast of Tcneriffc. This tree was care
fully measured in 1867, and again in 1884.
The first time the circumference of the
trunk, at the height of little less than
three metres from the ground, was found
to be nine and one-half metres; twenty
seven years later it was eleven metres,
seventy centimetres more than thirty
eight feet. The tree, therefore, has been
proved to increase in size much more
rapidly than Humboldt supposed. The
top of this tree is of clusters of sword
shaped leaves on rather soft, pliable
branches, and spreads out III very pic
