1t does not lie in the painters fancy to
imagine prettier picture than that of a
young girl, with lips luscious with the
promise of love, half parted in the smiles

maidenhood is clear and polished mirror,

ghostland of dreams, reflects the impress
s1ons of waking hours. If those impress
sions are pleasant and painless and happ
she will smile i'll her sleep. If the impress
sions are those of a suffering woman, tor
tured with the special ailments to which
the feminine organism is liable the picture
is spoiled by the lines of suffering and de-
spondency. Maladies of this nature unfit a
woman for joyous naidenhood and for ca
pable motherhood. They incapacitate her
to bear the burdens of life in any sphere
of action Household, marital and social
duties alike are burden to the woman who
is constantly suffering from headaches,
backaches, dragging sensations and weak
ening drains. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre-

of starvation. One young woman, with a
puny baby in her arms and another tug
ging at her skirts, said that her husband
owned small plantation four leagues
| away. They were in comfortable circum-
stances, but it happened that her hus-
band was ill with fever when the soldiers
came and ordered them to instantly leave
the place, preparing to fire the house at
once. She begged for time to remove the
sick man and collect some of their clothes:
and the soldiers told her with oaths and
jeers to be quick about it.
She fastened to obey. The very sick
man was carried out and laid on the grass
by the roadside; but when she ran back
to bring away few necessary articles,
the house was already in flames and en-
trance was impossible. So all was lost
The oldest child was then but week old
and the family were thrown almost naked
upon the world to subsist upon charity as
best they could. The boy in her hus-
band S employ was killed with the machete
before her eyes, for what reason she did
not know. We saw many children with
out a living relative; and in one house a
number of feeble old women covering in
the corner like frightened animals, their
husbands and sons having all been killed
We intended to take a coach from Arroyo

had appropriated all the horses and there
was no alternative but to walk As we
were starting, the Spanish Commandante
met us-a young fellow who happened to
be a gentleman-and courteously rendered
us an escort of soldiers. When we declin-
ed the honor, saying that we felt no fear;
he politely out firmly forbade us to go
without the escort. Said he: "Y GU dom t

When the great floods in the Ohio and
Mississippi valleys occurred and it was
ascertained that widespread suffering
existed, Miss Barton sent a notice to the
associated press that she would go to the
rescue. Immediately Supplies and money
by the thousands poured in. Boats we're
chartered and loaded with every descrip-
ton of supplies, including forage for CATTLE
Down the long rivers they steamed, stop
ping at all the towns and villages along
the way where want was known to prevail
Quickly the citizens were called together
and committee organized to distribute
supplies; then the boat steamed on. The
first intimation that the inhabitants had
that relief was coming was when the
boat with the magical red Cross emblem
upon it, drew up to their shores, and Miss
Barton, with the same blazon on her arm,
stepped over the gang plank and began to
assemble the stricken people. Truly she
must have seemed like an angel from a
better world.
The vital idea of the Red Cross is not
charity, it scorns the word but helpful
ness friendlness. Its privilege to do
for those in trouble, for in the Good
Samaritan sense, they are neighbors. HUI

ked Cross " ork in Cuba. 4 Few Devoted
Men and Women Stemning the Tide of
Starvation. Pest HouseS Transform into
sanitary Hospitals. The New Orphanage
in Havana.
HAVANA, CUBA, March TO- i is be-
yond the power of pen to portray the
change which the Red Cross has wrought
among the sufferers in Cuba. Not only
in the capital have disease and starvation
been checked in their wild career, but all
over the island its beneficent arm has ex-
tended. A fortnight ago 60 tons of food
was sent by boat from the Havana ware
houses to Cienfuegos. Twenty five tons
will come this week direct from New
ork to Matanzas also twenty five tons
to Santiago, a large amount to Cardenas
and fair proportion to other places. AL
ready the destitute in forty towns and viii
lagos are regularly in receipt of rations
and still the good work goes on, from
province to province, as fast as lists can
be made out and supplies dispatched I'M
der the regulations necessary to prevent
frauds. Fully IA, 900 people are being fed
in Havana, $1,000 in Matanzas, 5000 in
Jaruco, and SO on in like proportion; yet
the demand is as great as ever, and should
the supplies cease, even for one week,
starvation and death would resume their
awful carnival Indefatigable Miss Bar
ton, ably seconded by her aids, is work
ing with tireless energy, going from town
to town, investigating cases and establish
ing new stations for the distribution of re-
lief; while her corps of physicians and
nurses have their hearts and hands full
with the cares of the sick. Let no one
imagine that the tide of suffering is
stayed. All that has been accom-
plished is but drop in an ocean
of misery. Day by day new walls
come up from yet unvisited districts and
fresh cases of appalling destitution are
brought to light. For example: Yester-
day | visited, lin unofficial capacity, as l
am not member of the Red Cross, two
villages in the province of Havana. The
first little town, called Arroyo de Naranjo
is about 20 miles by railway from the
capital-a most picturesque place, but
now terribly poor. The 1000 Reconcen-
trados, detained within it's borders by
half as many soldiers, have as yet receiv-
ed no aid. The second village, Calaba-
Ear, is even smaller and poorer, but with
800 RecOncentrados corralled within it,
and large number of Spanish soldiers to
prey upon the impoverished country like
grasshOppers on Kansas field. Such
narrowing tales that were told us-such
pitiful sights as we saw! 1t was always
the familiar story-of people driven by
Weyler's orders from comfortable homes
in the country to herd within the FORTH
cations, where there was nothing to eat
and no work to do. One middle-aged
man, with tears streaming down his fur
rowed cheek S, said that his wife and four
children had died of hunger and "misi-
rie;;" and his own fearfully swollen feet
and emaciated frame told a pitiful tale

Aside from the pleasant effect such a

gain prestige among Catholic nations

achieve for the president a reputation for
