"I had been in my usual health, but
had worked quite hard. When my
monthly period came on, I flowed very
badly. The doctor gave me medicine,
but it did me no good. He said the
flow must be stopped If possible, and
he must find the cause of my trouble.
"Upon examination, he found there
was fbroid tumor in my womb, and
gave me treatment without any benefit
whatever. About that time a lady
called on me, and recommended Lydia

flow became more natural and regular.

for some time. Then the doctor made an
examination agaip, and found every
thing all right. The tumor had passed

"The liar is a much abused person, 4"
said a well known local physician to a
reporter last week. 1.-THE liar is not al
ways to blame, and if you have any
friends who are addicted to false repre-
sentation of things advise them to con-
suit their doctors. There is hope for at
least one class of liars. Medicine and
medical methods are applicable to those
who suddenly develop an adherence for
the truth and lie on all occasions even
though the truth might better suit their
purpose. This has come to be thought
of only as a species of dementia that is
ofttimes successfully treated.
"The malicious liar is difficult prob
lem, for he knows that he is telling a
lie and there is no hope for him. But
there are lots of people who just lie
naturally, without knowing what they
are saying or why they say it. The in
dividual often has nothing whatever to
accomplish by lying. but does so just as
some people SHUTTER. But, as l said be-
fore, he should not be blamed and frown-
ed upon. His mind is unhealthy and his
nervous system is out of order. Rest,
tonic and good nursing often restore
these people to their normal self, and
then the love of rectitude returns, and
they are effectually cured of very en-
barrassing habit w Washington Post.

Color Photography.

At a recent meeting of the Royal
Photographic society in London Profess
or Gabriel Lippman described his sys-
tenn of color photography, whereby
photograph showing the colors of nature
is obtained by direct process and with
one exposure of the plate. The film,
which might be of any sensitive sub
stance, he explained, was exposed, de-
veloped and fixed i'll the usual way.
Two conditions, however, must be OBJ
served-the film must i'll the first place
be transparent and grantees and in the
second it must be in contact with me-
tallic mirror during exposure. The eff
feet of the mirror, which was formed
by running q layer of mercury in be-
hind the plate, was to reflect back the
incident colored rays and thus make the
incident light waves stationary. These
stationary vibrations falling in The in
terror of the sensitive film, impressed
their own structure upon it, and by vir-
tue of the structure thus inn arted to it
the brown deposit of silver, when viewed
by reflected white light, appeared clothed
with the same col0rs as were possessed
by the image in the camera. The colors
were produced by interference" in the
same way as those of the soap bubble
or mother of pearl. That this was their
cause, M. Lippman said, was proved
by the fact that the tints of negative
changed if 1T were damped in conse-
quence of the gelatin swelling slightly
and thus altering the structure of the
silver deposit. The colors produced by
this process were true and bright pro-
vided that exposure and development
had been properly conducted. They
were, moreover, completely fixed and
resisted the action of light and time.
He had not yet succeeded in taking
prints from his negatives, but was CON
WINGED that to do so would be found
possible.

Chamberlain and the "purltan Mald.-

Cham pertain ana the puritan MalOs"
A Baltimore woman, in The Sun Of
that city, tells this story of Joseph
Chamberlain when he was in Washing
ton in 1887:
"He was big, burly man, caring so
little for his appearance that at one Of
the most fashionable dinners of the sea-
son his cravat got turned to almost I'M
der his ear and his shirt stud became
unfastened, and he sat calmly oblivious
to either incident His brains and charm
in conversation won him friends wher-
ever he went. One day he called ON a
lady who happened to be giving girls
luncheon. She went out at once t0see
him, and laughingly said if he did not
mind being the only man present she
would be delighted if he would come
in the dining room and take the vacant
place of one of her young friends who
had not come.
"He was not afraid to face lot of
American beauties, so he accepted
gayly, and the vacant place happened
to be next that of Miss Endicott, daugh-
ter of Secretary of War William Q. En-
dicott of Massachusetts,, a dovelike,
slender girl, one of the greatest bellies
of the day. The outcome of this was
the marriage Of the English statesman
and the Puritan maid, as she was
often called, his neighbor at an enter
tainment to which he had only been
hidden by that fate which shapes our
ends, rough hew them as we will. ;"
