Just a woman's story.


Not strange because it happens every day,
not romantic or thrilling, but Just story Of
misery and suffering such as only women
now.
For eighteen years, Sara E. Bowen, Of
Peru, Indiana, carried burden Of pain.
Night and day, without respite, she suf-
erred the most dreadful experience that ever
Tell to the lot Of woman.
That she did not die is almost beyond
5elief.
That she is well to-day is miracle.
Mrs. Bowen's trouble requires no descrio-
ion beyond the symptom, which every
voman will instantly recognize.
Ia describing them Mrs. Bowen says:
FOR eighteen years l suffered with
weakness peculiar to my sex.
II was broken down piece Of human
~; shadow OF a woman.
"My brain was tortured until could re-
member bat little. could not sleep or eat
md was reduced in weight to mere skele-
on. What little | did eat could not Re d.
yested in my weakened state, and caused
ne untold misery.
MY skin was muddy, my eyes were
eavy. l was dizzy alt the time and To-
ally uafit for even ordinary housework.
Doctors prescribed for me without avail.
ledicine was recommended and taken in
ga otity but it did no good.

CRANBERRYING.
How the Crop is Gathered on Cane Co,
Marshes.

HOW the Crop is Gathered on Cape Cod
Marshes.
| One hundred barrels to an acre ia a
| good yield, though, like all others, the
cranberry crop Is very uncertain, and
while many fall below this figure, boys
have been known to produce one barrel
to rod, or 100 to an acre. One bog of
thirty acres produced, in 1896, 300
barrels.
The harvest begins about the LIST of
september, and is the most busy time
of all the year to the people living in
the vicinity of the boys. To live out
of-doors at this beautiful season is
very pleasant, and when it means
health, pleasure and profit, it calls all
ages and conditions, from the baby in
arms to the octogenarian with cane
and spectacles; rich and poor, black
and white, all are there; even the be-
lated summer visitor is not left behind.
AT an early hour in the morning the
plckers are astir; everybody Is in a
hurry; and although preparations were
begun days before, there are many last
things to be done before the start is
made. The boys have been lined off"
in rows, and are all ready when the
pickers arrive, SO the work begins at
once. The berries are gathered in four
and six quart measures, for each of
which the picker receives ticket
when 1t is filled; or some of the larger
Dogs employ tally-keeper. Who will
get the first ticket? Each picker keeps
one eye on his neighbor, and picks
with all his might. 1t is an exciting
race, with something in it for every
one. The overseer (for this important
parsonage is found on every bog) keeps
sharp watch that no berries are left
N the hurry and that the measures are
1lled. He tells them when to begin
and when to leave off, and is authority
On all subjects connected with the
work. No order is obeyed more
promptly than Leave off for dinner"
There are groves adjoining nearly all
the boys, and here in the shade of the
trees the dinner is eaten; and how
good it tastes! The hour seems a short
one when the call to work is heard.
but the tickets have been counted, and
it is an honor to be high" which all
covet, SO they are soon at work again.
1t is jolly company. They talk, they
laugh, they sing, they entertain visit
ors, but they pick all the time. But
the day is drawing to it's end the sun
sinks behind the trees, the dew begins
10 fall, and "homeward they plod their
weary way" and the village, which
turing the day has seemed almost de-
serted, is again all life and hustle.
After the berries are picked they
are screened and the dirt and imper-
'ect fruit removed The small growers
10 this all by hand, but on the large
Dogs blowers and separaters are used,
which greatly facilitates the work.
They are then packed in boxes and
barrels, stamped, and shipped to mar
iet.

A KLONDlKE ROMANCE.
Why the Dake of Dawson's Daughter r.,
jected the Count.

why the Ddke of Dawson's Daughter Re
jected the Count.
Lady Clara Klondike, the golden.
naired daughter Of the first duke OF
Dawson, stood within the grand old
oaken hall of her fathers palace, over
looking the frozen river and the snow

She was clothed heavily in rich and ell
egant furs, for the winter had been
long and cold and the end was not yet.
She shivered as the seneschal an
bounced the arrival Of the count OF st.
Michael. Full well she knew the In
tent OF the counts visit, and she steeled
herself for the encounter which she
knew must follow quick upon their
meeting.
Seeing the fair being standing by the
wide fireplace of the drawing room,
looking more lovely than he had ever
seen her, he approached her side in a
whirl of emotion.
AT last!" he calculated in suppress.
I'd tones.
"Why?" she inquired in tone OF
voice which made the Klondike winter
seem like tropical dream.
| 20 sweet Claire!" he murmured, "so
.ong have l yearned for this moment.
Day unto day uttereth speech and night
into night showeth knowledge, but all
lays were dumb to me and all nights
black in ignorance while l have been
waiting to come thus into your pres
snce and offer you my heart, my hand,
md my fortune"
Thus speaking he flung himself at
aer feet, the meanwhile ten large and
soiled Indians from the headwaters of
he river came forward, rolling into the
beautiful reception room, ten barrels OF
pure, unadulterated gold dust, worth
1888 an ounce at any mint in the
and.
At first Lady Claire's fair face took
IN a kindly look, and there was in It
Utmost rosy flush of hope. She
watched the barrels eagerly, for they
ooked so much like the barrels her
ather was wont to pack hams in ere
he had come hither from Chicago so
many years agone.
However it was but a moment until
'he detected nothing in the barrels

The count, still at her feet, took no
iotice, for he had not spent the winter

shing upon her, she drew back and
ouched him with her foot as a token
hat he might rise.
Take back your gold, count" she

he Indians to withdraw as they had

Before the ice broke up in the river
