WATERBURY CENTER, VT.--Ths is a small
town, but often interesting happenings
take place, even in small town. This will
be found interesting news.
Mrs. G. G. Town, well.known resident
of this place, tells the following story:
81 was suffering terribly from nervous
ness" she says, "caused by female weak
ness, kidney troubles and backache, and
was so weak / could not walk across the
room without help. The nerves of my eyes
were so affected that feared that would
lose my sight.
ct saw Dr. Greenes Nervura blood and
nerve remedy recommended so highly that
l thought / would try it. had not taken
but one bottle OF this wonderful medicine
before my eyes were cleared of their dull
aching and all other pains and aches left
me.
81 grew stronger every day until 1 am
now well and able to do my own work.
can not do half justice in the praise of this
medicine, and I give these facts for the ben
eft of others who are ailing."

The American Woman.

If the American Union is today one of the
first countries in the world. it owes the fact
to large extent to the American woman,
who was and still is an important factor in
its astonishing prosperity. The United
States owes it to her that it has preserved
the religious faith, the principle of vitality,
imported by the pilgrim fathers to the
American shores.
She has been the eificacious artisan OF
the work. She has maintained it, extend
ed and enlarged it in the church and the
school. IN the hours Of difficulty, as dur
ing the war of independence and the war
of secession, the patriotism of the woman
sustained the courage Of the man. Under
all circumstances She was his companion
and his equal, AS such he respected her,
and that respect which she inspired in him
by her self denial and her courage in the
beginning, by her Intelligence and good
breeding afterward by her charms and
her confidence in his protection, has fash
Toned American manners and has strongly
impregnated them with the idea that re-
spect for his companion was for the man
one of the prime conditions of moral life.
This moral life is her own work. She
created and she maintains it. In the cult
of which she is the object, in the homage
which man renders to her, there is more
than the mysterious attraction which sex
inspires; there is the instructive recogni-
ton of great and salutary influence nobly
exercised -Rerue des DeUr MondeS.

The Nursery Card.

1 A lady recently returned from n long resi-
dence in England brings with her "nur-
sery card, " which might well be introduced
into this country. 1t is about 3 feet long by
2 wide, printed like wall map and is in
tended to hang in the nursery. At the top
of the card is blank space in which are
written the name and address of the nearest
doctor or the one you would wish to have
called in case of an accident Then follows
n list of accidents most common with chill
dren and the remedies to he applied-bites,
broken limbs, bruises and sprans, burns,
sonvulsions Group. cuts, drowning, faint
ing, falls, fits, nose bleeding, poisons,
scalds, stings, substances in the eyes, ears,
nose, swallowing coins, buttons, etc, and
wounds. Accompanying this card, which
is headed "What to do and how to do it" is
small box containing the remedies some
court plaster, absorbent cotton and lint.
The idea is admirable, for, when the
mother is at home, she is frequently so
frightened by an accident that her wits de-
sert her. and she is as helpless as the most
ignorant of servants. ~ have kept this
nursery card hanging on my nursery door
for four years" said the owner, land | am
beginning to believe it is preventive of
accidents. One thing | have been careful
to observe, and that is not to allow the ar
MICA or the camphor to he taken out of the
box except for an accident"

Who Are the People {!

A notable change has taken place in tho
political Specification of the word people"
in this country 1t meant only adult white
men at the time of the Declaration of In
dependence in l116 1t came to include
black men at the end of the civil war.
Now in one of the states of the Union at
all events, it comprehends adult men and
women, white or black. In Wyoming
women no less than men are entitled to
vote for their representatives in the gov
eminent of the country.
And why should woman not have this
right? She counts in every enumeration
of the census; her name is on every tax
roll; she is the nurser and instructor Of
youth; she forms more than man he habits,
tastes and manners of all the living; she is
as deeply interested as man in good laws
well administered; she suffers as much
from bad administration and profits as
much by good one. repeat, why should
she not vote as well as men? Certainly it
is not because she is not as capable to rule.
In modern times three of the greatest
rulers of the world have been women: Ma
ria Theresa of Austria, Catherine of Rus
STA and Victoria of England. 1t does not
become a man to say that any of these great
personages was not at least his equal in the
capacity and art Of governing. And in
these states, who will pretend that it is
just and decorous to give the right of vot-
ing to ignorant blacks when it is refused to
intelligent women?-D aUid Dudley Field.

In the land of the Moslem, the country
of the followers of Mohammed, the true
prophet, Moslem grave, when once filled
in, is never to be reopened on any account
With view to remove the faintest chance
of any grave being thus defiled the Mos
lens plant a cypress tree on every grave
Immediately after the interment, which
makes the Moslem cemeteries resemble
forests. Two hundred millions, or II per
cent of the human race, profess Moham-
mechanism. A year or two ago some mis-
sionaries were sent to this country in order
to seek its conversion to the true faith"
Turkey is the only portion of Europe occu-
pied in force by Moslems, but they abound
in many parts of Asia. In the island of
Timor burials are much delayed owing to
the necessity of gathering funds for the
burial feast, which in most cases means
ruin to the family. After the feast comes
the burial. AS soon as the grave is filled
in young cocoanut palm is planted upon
it.-ChicdgO Tribune.

SEARCHED Linen.

The manager of big New York laundry
says: Anything that needs to be stiffened
and polished should be washed perfectly
clean and allowed to dry thoroughly be
fore it is starched. Let it soak before
washing in lukewarm water long enough
to thoroughly soften the old starch. Take
care not to bend the stiff parts sharply
back or forth until gentle rubbing has
made them pliable, for stiff starched linen
is almost as frangible as cardboard, even
when new and sound of fiber Especially
is it so with fine qualities used for dress
shirts. When shirts are ready for the line,
be sure to hang them on it properly-that
is, with the shoulders lightly laid over it,
the bosom hanging smooth and straight be
tween. If a short bosom dries dragging
slantwise, the several thicknesses pulling
about, no after effort will achieve quite
the proper smoothness and solidity With
cuffs and collars it is much the same. Snap
them out straight and hang them so that

Appearances at Home.

Don't say that it doesn't matter how you
look around the house, for it does matter a
great deal. 1t matters for the general credit
of the establishment, of which the feminine
head is the creditable or questionable rep
resentative; it matters in its example to
the children and to the help; it matters to
the husband and father who usually, if he
is half a man, feels IA sense of pride in the
appearance of his family. 1t is poor en-
enlargement to him to find confusion and
carelessncss in dress and waste and de.
struction running riot about his dwelling
1t is one of the important duties of every
woman to keep herself and her house in a
condition as presentable as possible, consid-
ering her circumstances.

Why japanese Women Look Happy.

1.-THE secret perhaps" says n traveller, "of
the sweet expression and habitual serenity
of the japanese women can be found in
their freedom from small worries. The
fashion of dress never varying saves the
wear of mind on that subject and the bare
ness of houses aud simplicity o. diet make
housekeeping q mere bagatelle.
Everything is eXquistely clean and
easily kept so. There is no paint, no dra-
perry, no crowd of little ornaments, no com
ing into the houses with the footgear worn
in the dusty streets.
And there is the peaceful feeling of liv-
ing in rooms that can be turned into bal
comics and verandas at moments notice,
of having walls that slide away rs freely as
do the scenes on the stage and let in all out
of doors, or change tie suits of rooms to the
shape and size that the whim of the day or
the hour requires"

81 have the most unbounded' confidence
in the curative powers OF DR.. Greene's
Nervura blood and nerve remedy"
Take this medicine now if you are not
feeling just right, if you are weak, nervous,
run down in health and strength; if you do
not sleep well nights, and if you wake morn
ings tired and unrefreshed, with little or no
appetite for breakfast. Take il for head
ache, backache, constipation stomach, liver
or kidney complaints. 1t is purely VI getable
and harmless. Druggists sell it for 81.
1t should not be cassed with ordinary
patent medicines, for it is the discovery and
prescription of DR.. Greene of "a Temple
Place, Boston, Mass. the well-known and
successful specialist in curing nervous and
chronic diseases. The doctor can be con-
suited free in any case, personally or by
letter.

About Frogs.

remarkable thing about these creatures
is that the larger part of the breathing is
done through the skin In fact, it is said
that this supply of air is n necessary addi-
ton to that taken in by ordinary breath
ing, as the latter does not supply sufficient
air to support life in a frog. Another pecu-
liar thing about the skin of a frog is its
powerful absorption of water. This is due
of course to the numberless minute pores
with which their skin is provided. 1t has
been proved that frog can thus soak up
half its weight of water in an hour. The
soaking of water is what gives the frog
skin such cold, clammy and uncanny feel
ing when handled, and it eXplains a strange
thing.
Though bullfrog were poked with a red
hot iron it would not feel it enough to
move out of its tracks, for the moisture on
the skin forms kind of film of vapor be-
tween it and the iron, which it takes time
to heat through, and so the frog would not
feel pain from the heat Yet if hot water
is dropped upon him he will instantly jump
from pain, as this heat at once strikes into
the skin A frog has another safeguard
against drying up-that is, kind of in
terror sack for storing water Like the
camel, it thus keeps "A supply which carries
it over many dry place, when it would
otherwise lose all its moisture and die.
The water is as pure and tasteless as that of
any spring.
