THE FRIENDSHIPS OF WOMEN.
An English Essayist Makes Some Terrible
Statements About Them.


Statements About Them.
Take, again, the friendship Of one wom-
an for another when both stand upon the
same moral and social level 1t Is In nine
cases out Of ten devoid Of the obligations
of loyalty and honor which are inherent In
the friendship between one man and an
other There Is less reserve in 1t and also
less sincerity, for woman will reveal her
heart Of hearts to a friend and quarrel with
her the next day because she has pirated
her bonnet or alienated an admirer. Such
relations never become stable OF sacred be-
tween women, for they are apt to begin by
chance, proceed with passion and die at
a breath. Even H fever heat a woman
never gives as much to another as she
gives to her lightest lover, and at any mo-
ment she is ready to sacrifice her friend at
the behest Of any man in whom she Is
momentarily interested. For his enter
tainment she will betray any confidence
without O scruple or regret, even II she
refrains from denouncing her feminine
friend to the first conner as soon as q shad-
ow of misunderstanding has arisen be-
tween them
In the lives of most men there are only
one or two friendship bonds, riyeted by
years Of intercourse, which nothing but
undreamed Of treachery can sever. Wom-
en-, on the other hand, make and discard
friends with equal facility. If they are
seldom true to men, their fidelity to their
own sex is rarer far, for there are no Da-
vids and Jonathans among women, no
friendships founded on mutual faith and
held in honor Until woman learns to
conduct her relations with her own sex on
the same principle as that on which men
act the sisterhood Of woman will never
come within measurable distance Of the
possible. She has learned SO much from
man in this decade that it is not rnreason-
able to hope she may yet learn the true
character of friendship as well as the pol
Icy of combination. When woman stands
shoulder to shoulder with her sister In
public and in private life, she will stand
at the very gates Of her kingdom, abreast
of that "brave vibration, each way free"

The one in blue agreed and began call

the one in gray.

A few minutes later a lady entered and
ordered glass of soda water.

she asked as she paid for the soda water.
Two pairs of eyes shot indignant glances
at her, and she explained to the clerk that
1t was of no consequence and went out.
She evidently knew too much to wait
One or two others came in and went
out after noticing that the two women had
appropriated couple of seats and a large
section of the counter in front of the soda
fountain, and then boy entered.

One Fish Has Many Names.

There are few things SO variously named
as fishes. Almost every fish has many
names, according to localities, and some
fishes are known In one locality by as
many as five names. 1t Is said that there
is scarcely fish that has not different
name for every hundred miles along the
coast. The striped bass of these waters is,
for instance, in Baltimore, called a rock
fish, or rock. Our weakfish farther south
Is called sea trout, and SO on. There are
fishes that have as many as 25 names on
our Atlantic coast.-Chicago Times-Her-

AFTER THIRTY YEARS
THE BUCKEYE STATE CONTRIB
uTES A STORY.

How Fred Taylor, u Member OF the
Gallant 1seth N. ", v. l.. Finally
Found What He Has Sought Since
tho War Closed.
From the Ashtabula, Ohio, Beaoon.l
Mr.. Fred Taylor was born and
brought up near Elmira, N. y. and
from there enlisted in the 1S9th regi-
ment N. Y, v. L., with which he went
through the war and saw much hard
service.
Owing to exposure and hardships
during the service, Mr.. Taylor con-
tracted chronic diarrhoea from which
he has suffered now over thirty years.
with absolutely no help from physi-
clans BY nature he was wonderfully
vigorous man. Had he not been his
disease and the experiments Of the doc-
tors had killed him long ago. Lauda-
mum was the only thing which afforded
him relief. He had terrible headaches,
his nerves were shattered, he could not
sleep an hour day on an average, and
he was reduced to a skeleton. A year
ago he and his wife sought relief in a
change Of climate and removed to
Geneva, o.; but the change In health
came not Finally on the recommended
tion Of +. ]. Hoffner, the leading drug.
gist Of Geneva, who was cognizant OF
similar cases which Pink Pills had
cured, Mr.. Taylor was persuaded to
try box. "As a drowning man grasps
straw, so l took the pills." says Mr..
Taylor. 'but with no more hope Of res
cue. But after thirty years of suffering
and fruitless search for relief at last
found it in DIR. Williams Pink Pills.
The day after / took the first pill
commenced to feel better and when l
had taken the first box was in fact a
new man. That was two months
ago. Mr.. Taylor has since taken more
of the pills and his progress is steady
and he has the utmost confidence In
them. He has regained full control Of
his nerves and sleeps as well as in his
youth. Color is coming back to his
parched veins and he is gaining flesh
and strength rapidly. He is now able
to do considerable outdoor work.
AS he concluded narrating his suffer-
ings, experience and cure TO Beacon
reporter, Mrs. Taylor, who has been a
faithful helpmeet these many years,
said she wished to add her testimony
in favor of Pink Pills. ITO the pills
alone is due the credit Of raising Mr..
Taylor from helpless invalid TO the
man he is today" said Mrs. Taylor.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Taylor cannot find
words to express the gratitude they feel
or recommend too highly Pink Pills to
suffering humanity. ANY inquiries
addressed to them at Geneva, o., re.
garding Mr.. Taylor's case they will
cheerfully answer as they are anxious
that the whole world shall know what
Pink Pills have done for them and that
suffering humanity may be benefited
thereby.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills contain all
the elements necessary to give new life
and richness to the blood and restore
shattered nerves. They are for sale by
all druggists or may be had by mail
from DIR. Williams Medicine Com
pany, Schenectady. N. Y, for so cents
