Nature intended woman to be beauti-

tiplied miseries have prevented her from
properly performing her maternal mis-
sion, impaired her physical functions
and poisoned the sources of new life.

Of mankind are born sick. So the chief

ever onward.
In civilized life not one woman in five
hundred is fittedfor the Office Of mother
hood on account Of complaints common
to the sex This may seem a startling
statement, but it is amply attested by
those peculiarly qualified by extensive
professional experience to give an opin-

He Missed the Point.

Almost his first effort in a newspaper
Office was to condense an account of a
golden wedding. He did his best and
handed it in. His editor looked it over
and handed it back, remarking coldly:
'YOu seem to have got everything in
except the point. Try again."
Greatly abashed, he returned to his
desk and toiled for nearly an hour over
the thing, finally taking it falteringly a
second time to his chief. That function
airy read it through, and then with calm
contempt looked the young man over.
Don't you see that the striking thing
about this incident, and the only thing
which makes it worth our while to print
it at all, is that each of these individuals
now celebrating their golden wedding
has been married once before. Probably
an almost unprecedented thing. You
have carefully left the main point out
of both your condensations.
The newspaper man went on to say
that he never forgot that experience. He
thinks he owes his success to it, for he
has come to be one of the foremost ICON.

An Ex-oueen's Good Fortune.

The ex-queen of Naples, who has suf
fered all the pangs of genteel poverty

atfluent position. Her mother, the late
Duchess of Ludovica, of Bavaria, who
died some weeks ago, left fortune
yielding an income of about 800, 900 a
year. According to the will of the
duchess the property was to be shared
equally between three of the daughters
of the duchess, namely, the empress OF
Austria, the ex-queen of Naples and the
Duchess of Alencon.
The empress, however, is so wealthy

$500, 200 a year of her own. besides the
right of drawing upon her husbands

has abandoned her share of the beuuest

therefore now come in for about $50 .OOC

as the heroine in Daudet's kings in

Young Bridegroom's Awful Mistake
Few Hours Before the Wedding.
1t was under circumstances of peculiar
difficulty that Alfred c. became n
benedict the other day. AS the bride
elect lived out of town, in one of the
neighboring suburbs, he had arranged to
go to the house of a friend not far away
early in the forenoon. There he was to
dress for the ceremony, which was to
take place, English fashion, at the little
village church before 12 o'clock. Send
ing most of his luggage on ahead, he

ably, rather nervous on this occasion.
and having left his seat to speak to a
friend in the forward part Of the car lust
before reaching the station, he hurried
back as the brakeman called out the
name of his place of destination. and
selzing what he supposed was his bag as
1t lay IN an otherwise empty seat, he was
Off and away almost before the train had
come to standstill. Arriving at his
friends house, he found that there was
an hour ahead of him before it was time
to dress, so he consigned his bag to the
servant and followed his host into his
'den' to calm his mind with a good ci-
gar before the mOmentous event,
But he had hardly made himself COM
Portable before the butler entered with a
countenance that bespoke an extraordi-
nary effort to maintain his gravity.

mistake; will you please to see what har-

bewildered, c., together with his
friend, followed the man upstairs and
found neatly ranged on the bed what was
evidently the contents of a drummer's
bag of samples cotton ''unlon gar
ment," childs size; four different styles
OF braces, q patent seam corset, eight
samples Of collar buttons, half dozen
ties of fiaring colOrs stamped correct

OF course the explanation was obvious;
he had taken the wrong bag, and his own
wedding suit was en- route for Boston,
without either bride or bridegroom, on
a wedding tour of its own. Fortunately
his friend was man of about the same
size, and by borrowing an outfit he was
enabled to reach the church in time and
no ono was any the wiser. The story
leaked out, however, and on his return
from the honeymoon trip he had a lively
half hour at his club.-New York Trib-

JUST A BABY OWL

But It Mixed Up the Good and Bad
Boys ~Shockingly.
1t was an owl, not an old and wise one,
but young and religious. Ii was in time
for the Sunday School services at the
Grove street Baptist Church. 1t reached
the window and the sexton dislodged it.
1t flew to a neighporing tree. Soon there
were three hundred or more good little
boys just from the Sabbath School as
soclaGlng with as many more naughty
little boys who play craps and other
wicked worldly games.
1t was lucky for that owl that he was
little.
No one could discriminate between the
good and the wicked boys in the exciting
hunG thai followed with weapons of the
antediluvlan times. Sticks and stones
were the missiles. The energetic boys
kept up a lively ~tusillade. The owl
folded itself into the smallest possible
shape. II ceased to be a target
only when some venturesome
lad would climb up to cap
ture it. Then i5 turned It's head and
winked and blinked at 1t enemy until the
hand was extended to grasp IT.. Then
with a knowing wink, 1t few to the next
tree.
Thus from tree to tree it went until
Policemen Monohan and Cody arrived
and stopped the amusement. Monohan
concluded TO add the owl to Captain
Farrier's collection. He procured a
ladder and then instantly sent d boy up
after the bird.
When the boy arrived the owl was
resting on Il limb in the next tree and
there he remained undisturbed until
darkness.
He was there in the morning.
