Mrs. Sarah NJ. Black of Seneca,
Mo-, during the past two years has
been affected with Neuralgia of the
Head, Stomach and Womb, and
writes: MY food did not seem to
strengthen me at all and my appe-
tite was very variable. My face
was yellow, my head dull, and had
such pains in my left side. In the
morning when I got up I would
have flow of mucus in the mouth,
and a bad, bitter taste. Sometimes
my breath became short, and I had
such queer, tumbling, FACILITATING
sensations around the heart. Iached
all day under the shoulder blades,
in the left side, and down the back
of my limbs. 1t seemed to be worse
in the wet, cold weather of Winter
and Spring; and whenever the spells
came on, my feet and hands would
turn cold, and I could get no sleep
at all. 1 tried everywhere, and got
no relief before using August Flower

GOOD SKATING ICE.
What Kind Is the Best, Where 1t Is Found
and Which is Safest.

and Which is Safest.
"What is the best kind to skate on?"
was asked of Champion Figure Skater
Bacon the other day.
"As nearly as l can describe it, was
the reply, 1t is the kind which appears
to be blaclish green in color, and yet is
very clear. This ice is always intensely
hard and solid, and is as smooth as
glass. This kind of ice is only pro-
duced, have noticed, after very Sc
we're frost, when there has been no snow
or wind. We don't get much of this
right around here, but it is common in
Maine ! consider this ice to be the
very best for the use of expert skaters,
but kind less smooth and hard is bet
ter for beginner who has not yet Sc
cured full command over his skates"
"What other kind is there which the
skaters like?"
There is kind known as greasy
ice, which is frozen at a comparatively
higher temperature than the other L
mentioned. This is very good for skat-
ing. Then there is snow ice, which is
full of flakes, hollows and air bubbles.

fore it may be considered safe for sllat-
ing, and Their only while the process of
freezing is still going on. What makes
this especially dangerous is that it
breaks up without giving any warning,
as the clear, dar1-colored ice always
does. The air bubbles are to blame for
this.
"How can you tell when the ice is
dangerous; that is, about to break up?'
"pure ice, unmiXed with snow, al
ways gives plain warning before it
breaks up. Bending ice is not danger

of considerable length. But when these
principal cracks begin to be joined by
others which interSect and biSect, then
look out. Water will bubble up through
these cracks, small pieces will rush
through, and Wheeling, creaking noises
will be heard, caused by the broken
edges grating together. That is the
final warning of breaking up, and the
danger is imminent. Snow ice is vastly
more treacherous, notwithstanding the
fact that it may be considerably thicker
than the hard, clear ice

VERY EFFECTIVE ACTING.

The Heavy Villain Saluted With IA Shower
of Bullets in IA Theater.
1--WE were playing in Il small town
back in the seventies" said theatrical
man. when our leading heavy man had
rather "A tough experience. All the
miners were in the theater. Well, the
heavy man had been prosecuting poor
maiden through two acts. In the third
act he came to the powerful scene OF
the play. At last he said: Il have you
in my power and nothing ON earth can
save you. l, who was the slave, am now
the MASTER So saying, he advanced to-
ward his trembling victim.
Mercy she moaned.
'Mercy?' he retorted. You had no
mercy for me, and l will have none for
you
AT that moment gruff voice was
heard from the gallery, You blamed
varmint, I'll settle with you" There
was the crack of pistol and bullet
whizzed near the heavy man. Plug the
son of a gun, boys continued the voice
and shower of bullets saluted the
stage villain. He didn't stop long.
"In the wing he met the stage mana
ger, who was white with anger.
You have broken up the scene he
said.
Well?'

THAT was serious. TO be stranded
in that fo-saken town was calculated to
make the heavy man apprehensive.
"'I'll go back he said.
"IIe tore off his wig just before going
on, and stepping down to the footlights
with an injured expression Of counte-

"Ladies and gentlemen There were

Couldn't stand the Odor.

A very amusing story was told about
Chancellor Bismarck by Earl Russell.
The incident occurred at Versailles
during the war of 1870. Lord Russell
was to have an audience. and he was
waiting for Count Won Arnim to leave
Bismarck study. Presently Won Arnim
came out tanning himself furiously with
his handkerchief.
~ really can not understand" he said,
'.how Bismarck can live in such an at
mosphere; he is continually smoking,
and the strongest cigars, too. l had to
ask him to open the window, for could
not stand it."
Then he took leave of Lord Russell
and went his way. As soon as Lord
Russell entered the room Bismarck said
to him:
what strange tastes some people
have! There is Won Arnlm, now, who
has Just gone out of the room; it is fad
of his to scent himself up to an unbear'
able degree, and to-day the perfume was

Calculation on a Potato.

Did you ever calculate the value of a
single potato on the basis that that sin
gle tuber was the only one left in the
world? That one would, of course, con-
tain within itself the possibility of re-
stocking the world with valuable ar
ticle of food. If one potato would pro-
duce, when planted, but ten potatoes in
one years, the total product of that one
potato would be 10000, O,OcO, which
would stock the whole world with
seed. If the world were reduced to one
single potato, it would be better that
London or Chicago be blotted from the
earth than for that one tuber to be lost.

Take Care of the Brain.

The brain stands most abuse of any
organ in the body. It's best tonic and
stimulation is success. The worst and
most depressing thing to it is failure.
The most injurious effects come by
using stimulants in early life. Young
people should never use liquor, tea or
coffee. The latter two may not exactly
do harm, but they are conducive of no
good. They act mostly on the brain
and .iniure it's growth very materially.
Abundance of sleep is necessary. Eight
hours is not more than enough. Sleep
is the time of relatively lowered ex-
penditure and increased rcpair.-Ladies'

ADVICE TO GIRLS.

Come all ye girls who hope to wed,
And hear q friends advice;
Before you leave your fathers home,
Think twice, think twice, think twice.
For AZ he is before yon tie
That sacred mystic knot.
So he will be in years to come,
When the honeymoon's forgot.
Some one said truly long ago:
LAS a young man treats his mother,
He will be suro to treat his wife
When the wedding day is over"
For as he is before you tie
That sacred mystic knot.
So he will BE- IN years to come,
When the honeymOon's forgot.
Then il your lover has a home,
And in that home mother,
And if for her no love he shows,
just love him as brother.
For as he is before you tie
That sacred mystic knot,
So he will be in years to come,
When the honeymoon's forgot
And If he is little wild,
His pledge he does not keep,
Sowing wild oats, perhaps he'll say,
but 40 NOT pelp nun reap.
For as he is before you tie
That sacred mystic knot,
So he will be i'll years to come.
When the honeymoon's forgot.
Trust not his promise that he'll be
An angel for your sake;
For promises are like pie crust,
And very apt to break.
And rs he is before you tie
That sacred mystic knot
So he will be in years to come,
When the honeymoon's forgot.
Evolution may create
Great things from rough and rude;
But a model husband you'll not get
From cross grained, stuckup dude.
For as he = before you tie

AMERICAN TITLE HUNTING.
The Insane Desire for genealogical Splurg'
and SplcndOr.

The Insane Desire for Genealogical Splurge
and SplcndOr.
Our professional genealogistS have
found out that it is far easier to eStab-
lish a connection with some foreign
family of repute and to appropriate
their honors and insignia than to manu-
facture outright. Thus our Muggins
has been successfully spliced on to the
English family Of De MOgyn, our Tay
lors to the Taylcures, our Scamers to
SeymourS and st. Maurs, and our Null
Inns to DeMoulins. In general these
transformations and affiliations have
been effected without exciting com
ment or criticism, but not always An
American family bearing a name famous
in English history and exalted in one
branch by Il ducal title, concluded that
similarity of surname gave them an
equal right to the heraldic belongings
of the family, and assumed the escutch-
con. supporters and all. If their pride
had been satisfied with the display of
the insignia on their carriage panels no
one would have objected, but when it
tempted them to assert publicly their
right to the ducal title, which was then
in allegiance, it aroused the curiosity of
some prowling genealcgists - those
pests of society - who set about in
quiries which, they asserted, proved
that the American family was only of
yeoman origin and of no possible con-
motion with the ducal house. Thus did
their vaulting ambition overlap itself,
and to avoid ridiculc they were obliged
to suppress Il magnificent table-service
of china and silver, on which they had dis
played, at considerable expense, the
ducal crest and coronet.-Forum.

DEAR BRO, JAS. A.: Yours of
oh! so long ago, I will at last en-
deavor to answer, but / must tell
you of my long silence. You know
how remote our lives and ideas used
to be. We did not then let our
minds run out upon the the shores
of happy or aggregated future.
We were satisfied with our sur
roundings-hard work and poor pay.
We occasionally heard of better and
worse surroundings than ours. We
thought we had no time, and in fact
we did not have time to investigate
our future condition. A miracu-
lous change came over me. About
that time l began to think, and read
at every opportunity. People be-
gan to notice my honest ambition.
They came to me for advice. They
began to- have confidence in my
honest convictions, imposing trusts
upon me. They asked me to serve
them, first, in small Office | ac-.
cepted and served them faithfully,
recognizing the fact that | was
their servant, elected to do their
will. From the small Office was
elected to a higher and more res
ponsible one. Temptations assailed
me from all directions, but | never
swerved from duty. | had studied
some of the New Testament's doc
trines. | remembered how Christ,
the Redeemer of the world, had
chosen his help from the common
people. / had studied the history
of the nations of the world, and a
history of all the great men OF the
world, and found that they all
sprung from the common people. J
learned, also, the history of all the
pride and pomp of the world, the
high-handed kings and rulers, the
proud and wealthy aristocrats, and
how they oppressed the common
people, until at last they could not
endure this oppression any longer,
and they raised up in mighty body
and overthrow kings, rulers and
empires. Yes, and / came down
the line of time to 1916, and made
careful study of that great event
when the blood of our forefathers
was so freely shed that we might
be free and independent people
YES, ] studied that Declaration of
independence, and thought of the
true and noble spirit embraced
therein, of fraternal principles and
brotherhood of men, of the brave
and answering minds that fixed

and glorious men that have stood

find this people, as a rule, hard
working class, from the father OF
the family, the good wife and moth
er, down to the little children.
They put in long hours of faithful
service; they see or get very little
of the Injuries of life ; they furnish
the products of life for the rest of
world, and yet they cannot set a
price on their own productions, and
are often compelled to sell at loss.
Their products are in the hands of
combinations and trusts. In the
sweat Of their faces they supply the
world with food, which, through
trusts, combinations and class leg
islation, they are compelled to pro-
duce at starvation prices. How
can | wonder at them wanting to
better their condition? In this
district | have visited them in sa-
cred service, held in the country
school house. There ! found them
so poorly attired that if they enter
ed the churches in our cities, they
would be laughed to scorn-the lit
tie boys and girls in their bare, sun
burnt feet, the mother in her calico
dress, the father in his jeans-and |
am told these people should stay at
home and plow and work their
fields, and not be dabbling in poll
tics but let us stop and ask to what
end why to the end that the arls-
tocrats of the country can continue
to pile up their millions-to the end
that the rich will continue to grow
richer, and that the poor will grow
poorer.
From the farming districts took
a trip over the railroads of our
country. I did not go over the
roads in a special train with bag
gage car loaded with high wines
and champagnes at that, at the rate
of fifty miles per hour, as do the
most of our public officers, in charge
of representatives of the railway
corporations. No sir, did not do
this. | went from station to station
investigating the wants of the com
mon people-the laborer--the
wealth producers-mechanics, en-
gineers, firemen, conductors, brake
men, station agents, section men
in fact, all the wage-workers. l

at starvation wages; that they have
no rights as American citizens !;
that their labor results in a vast i'm
