 "Gee Whiz! I am Ordered to Bathe Twice Day. and there is no Water within Mile, except in the We'll Do l Bathe in the We'll?

A Birmingham Girl
 Prepares for Hospital Nurse

Miss Madge Parsons will leave in Osto- Der either for Chicago or New York where she will enter one of the hospitals in the capacity of a nurse Miss Parsons has not quite decided which offer she will accept but it is more than probable that she will go to New York. This decision of Miss Parsons has been known for some time among her intimate friends, and in the carrying out of her plans she has met with the greatest opposition from those who a e near and very dear to her. Like many southern girls, who have been reared In an atmosphere of the old school and whose environments are typical of the old south, she has had to contend with the usual opposition tha, confronts the amb.- tious of the younger women of the south. Her desire to enter hospital in the ca pacity of nurse has not been sudden de- cision. She has been thinking of it for some time, and has studied as far as pos sible all the demands and the duties that will fall upon her young shoulders.
 Tn taking up this work she said, yes terday, in discussing her plans. T have rot been influenced solely by the trend of the times, which for many young women seems to be hospital training. It is not any fad on my part, but a wish to take up cau=e of work and study that I hope l win do creditably. l realize that hospital work will be great tax my strength, and patience, but I am not going into hospi- tai with my eyes closed. There is no sen timent in work that requires ones time for twelve hours out of the day.
 "T'he authorities with whom have been corresponding have made me cosnizant ot the many duties that devolye upon hospital nurses, the hardships and the routine that characterize the life; but feel that every thing Is from ones own point of view, and l trust that I shall see it in the light that one always views a duty that is well per- formed
 Miss Parsons will probably leave early In October The absence of this charming young woman from the social life or BIT mingham will be greatly deplored Her gracious and cordial manner and her love liness and vivacty have made her one or the most popular and beloved young women in society Her sunny nature and thorough unselfishness, together with her broad and wholesome view of life, will stand her III great need for her new duties, for 1t IS not alone the illness of the body to Whlch she will administer, but the charm of her per sonality will be potent factor in bringing happiness to many sad hearts. TO those who are at all familiar with hospital train ing, the work is regarded as one or the broadest fields open to young women or .o- day, and hundreds of them are avail1ng themselves of the opportunity for deVeiop- ment along these lines of usefulness

INTENSE SUFFERING
From Dyspepsia and Stomach
 Trouble
Instantly Relieved and Permanently Cured
 by Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
New Discovery But Not a Patent
 Medicine,

Dr. Redwell relates an interesting ac- count of what he considers a remarkable cure of acute stomach trouble and chronic dyspepsia by the use of the new discovery, Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets.
 He says: The patient was a man who had suffered to my knowledge years with dyspepsia. Everything he ate seemed to sour and create acid and gases in the stom- ach; he had pains like rheumatism in the back, shoulder blades and limbs, fullness and distress after eating, poor appetite and loss of flesh; the heart became affected, causing palpitation and sleeplessness at night.
 I gave him powerful nerve tonics and blood remedies, but to no purpose. As an experiment I finally bought a 5-cent pack age of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets at a drug store and gave them to him. Almost im- mediate relief was given and after he had used four boxes he was to all appearances fully cured.
 There was no more acidity or sour watery risigs, no bloating after meals. the appetite was vigorous and he has gained between ten and twelve pounds in weight of solid, healthy flesh.
 Although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are advertised and sold in drug stores yet consider them most valuable addition to any physican's line of remedies, as they are perfectly harmless and can be given to children or invalids or in any condition Of the stomach with perfect safety, being harmless and containing nothing but vege- table and friut essences, pure pepsin and Golden Seal.
 Without any question they are the safest, most effective cure for indigestion, bilious ness, constipation and all Arrangements of the stomach, however slight or severe.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are made by the Stuart Co., of Marshall, Mich.. and sold Inv dr,Ppists everywhere at 50 cents per package.

Will Sell the Horses

Washington, September 15.-New Workers who wish to obtain a souvenir of the fa- nous Rough Riders will have an opportu- nity to do sS- The war department today ordered that all the horses which had been at Montauk Point, about 1000 in number, belonging to the First regiment of United States Volunteer Cavalry, by which is meant Colonel Roosevelts Rough Riders, be sold at public auction. The horses are already on the way to New York by water, and the auction will take place in that city at the earliest possible moment. Many of the animals are highly trained in the style peculiar to the western COW puncher, and it is likely that some of them will be bid in by their former riders.
 It is said at the department that there will be no cavalry march from Montauk to New York. The officials believe that the soldiers have had enough of hardship for the time being, and are disposed to give them every opportunity to enjoy thorough rest.

Some Characteristics of
 Martha Washington

Martha Howard writes thus interesting ly of the characteristics Of Martha Wash- ington which had an unhappy enect upon George Washington, and the notapies or the day.
 There are no names in the list of Ameri- can women that are regarded With more reverence than those of the mother ana wife Of George Washington. They nave been constantly held up as types or pure and noble womanhood. They were good wo1ae1a but many of their virtues are apocryphal and owe their faneied exiss- ences to the inventive genius of the scnool teacher weer1s, who, to spice hfs pfosrd- phies made out of whole cloth such anec- dotes as that of little George and the cher- ry tree, ana or frahcis haiioh anu 'He sweet potatoes.
 Various letters and memoirs that are eX- tant show that the first president was not entirely satisfied with either his wife or ms mother He frequently reproved his moth CT for her foolish extravaganza and shit less way of keeping house. She had a way of borrowing from the neighbors which Washington thought was wrong, and once he had to rebuke her for coming into a room en deshabille in the presence or strangers. She was quarrelsome, ana IL was her temper that led him to declare that he would never have two women liV- ing in the same house while he was there himself. He also complained that she Was frivolous and given to gossip.
 George himself had not temper WhieH he had great difficulty to control, ana, as Martha his wife, was also not sweet tempered, he often had difficulty in avoid ing tits with her. She was the wealthest woman in Virginia, and somewhat oloer than he but she was great belle peIore her marriage and rather frivolous Wash ington himself was not very well educated, but, his wife was an ignoramus. She could not spell at all, and Washington was so ashamed of her orthography that he made it a point to destroy all of her letters. Most of her letters which are in existence were written by Washington and copied by her, much as many of Washingtons state papers, including even the farewell address, were of other peoples authorship. Mrs. Martha Washington's ignorance was so ap- paling that Jefferson, Hamilton, Madison and all who came in contact with her were impressed.
 Oh, yes, but she was good housekeeper That would be the remark of the critic of the women of today and the defender Of those of the past She was not good housekeeper. She was a poor one, and she knew it so well she was greatly pleased when her husband engaged a woman to keep house. She herself was extravagent, and Washington had to enforce upon her the duty she owed in observing sinsple and economical habits in the household for the sake of the needed example to other women and to the country.

CAPT. EVAN P. HOWELL
Appointed to Position on Investigating
 Commission by the President.

Washington, September 15.-(Special.)- The appointment of Captain Evan P. How ell, formerly editor of the Atlanta Consti- tuition, to a place on the commission to investigate the conduct of the war has ex- cited much favorable comment among those who hope to see the matter thoroughly probed.
 While it was at first thought that the investigation would be farce, the appoint ment of such man as Captain Howell shows that President Mckinley is de- termined to get at the bottom of the trouble.
 Captain Howell has not yet signified whether or not he will accept the position.
