Just wonan's story.
Not strange because it happens every day,
not romantic or thrilling, but Just story Of
misery and suffering such as only women
know.
For eighteen years, Sara E. Bowen, Of
Peru, Indiana, carried burden Of pain.
Night and day, without respite, she suf-
tered the most dreadful experience that ever
tell to the lot Of woman.
That she did not die is almost beyond
beEef.
That she is well to-day is a miracle.
Mrs. Bowen's trouble requires no descrip-
lion beyond the symptom, which every
woman will instantly recognize.
In describing them Mrs. Bowen says:
For eighteen years suffered with weak

by the Red Gross, and large stores of

their consulting room is crowded, by the

ROUTE TO TIE OCEAN
GREAT DEEP WATERWAY FROM
CHICAGO TO THE SEA.
Plans and Purposes of the United
States Deep Waterways Commission
Most Stupendous Work of Internal
Improvement Ever Attempted.

Chicago is to become the headQuar
tiers for a great ocean-carrying trade.
Vessels of the largest size are to be
loaded there for foreign ports, and car
goes will be received direct from all
parts of the world without breaking
bulk at the seacoast. Ocean-going
steamers will take on loads of grain
from Chicago elevators and convey
them to European cities without tran
shipment, and people who wish to cross
the Atlantic on pleasure or business
may sail from the Windy City instead
of from New York, Boston or Philadel-
phia. 1t will be possible for vessels
to make the trip from Liverpool to New
Orleans via Chicago and st. Louis by
using the great lakes, the drainage
canal and the Mississippi river. To
secure this result will necessitate the
expenditure of probably $30O,0OO,0O0.
This is not the idle dream of an en-
thusiast. It is the project of the United
States deep waterways commission, in
dorsed by act Of congress, fathered by
engineers Of international reputation,
and surveys for which are now being
made. 1t is mammoth enterprise, one
that involves years of hard labor and
the expenditure of hundreds Of millions
of dollars, the largest and most stu
pendous work of internal improvement
ever attempted by any country in the
world, but the men interested say it
will be carried through to success with
in a reasonable length Of time. The
plan, in brief, is to unite the waters
Of the great lakes with those of the
Atlantic ocean by means of canals deep
enough to float the largest ocean-g going
vessels. 1t sounds easy, but when the
physical obstacles to be overcome are
understood the herculean character of
the task becomes apparent.
So far back as February 8, 1895, Sen
ator Villas, of Wisconsin, introduced in
to the United States senate a joint reso-
luton providing for the appointment of
commission to investigate the practi-
cability of connecting the lakes with
the ocean, with the understanding that
the Canadian government was to CO.

The amount thus far expended py the
United States upon lake naylgatlon Is
about S12,OO0,0OO, and marine history
contains no parallel to the rapid de-
yelopment that has been maze posslOie
by this assistance.
Lake freights on grain from chicago
to Buffalo are about ~ cents Dusnei.
Ocean freights are from to oA Genus
making the rate for the deep water car
riage of 1000 miles from AZ to 4a4
cents a bushel The whole cost OF senu-
ing a bushel of grain from chicago 10
E,1rope is nearly 10 cents, the difference
being made up of elevator charges at
Buffalo and the seaboard, freights on
the Erie canal, commissions, etc. IL
costs twice as much to carry a Dusnel
of grain from Chicago to New YORK as
it does to send the same grain from
New York of Europe, though the latter
distance is mere than twice as great as
the former. If an ocean steamer could
clear from Chicago or Duluth or any
other upper lake port for Europe 1t
would save the time and expense now
required in breaking bulk at two inter-
mediate points and the cost Of carriage
would be reduced by one-half. Thls
same reduction would give the grain
raisers and handlers of the west bet
ter opportunity of competing with the
cheap-grown grains of Russia and In
dia and South America.
"The same argument holds good OF
iron and lumber, in both of which an
immense business is done on the lakes
and for which a larger foreign market
might be found if carrying charges
could be cut down. There is not farm
er, merchant, manufacturer or laborer
in the west who would not be imme-
diately benefited by the opening OF
such a waterway as that now being
surveyed"

Human Writing Table.

The Earl of Clanmoyle, famed alike
for his generosity and eccentricity, was,
during the declining years of his life,
very fond of startling his visitors by
suddenly presenting to their view the
immense skeleton of a man, which,
when first seen, was artistically ar
ranged as a writing table. This uncan-
ny piece Of furniture was located in
the Earl's library, and he boasted that
he had written thousands of letters up
on the back of the skeleton, which
stood on all tours, a baize-covered
board, to which was attached a flowing
valance, being laid on the top. The
Earl always made a point of showing
