 Nothing was in sight.
 Looking again at the window, the youth ran his fingers swiftly across the strings, and then, lifting up his head and opening his mouth until the moonlight glittered on his teeth, he began in a shrill tenor:
 "0h, don't you remember"
 But he got no further.
 The window above suddenly opened and a large, hcavilv-framed engraving of the hattlesAiR Maine was dropped from within and fell sauarely en the singers head
 "Oh, We remember all right" shouted a hoarse voice from above.
 And the startled singer gathered himself together and s1ily and painfully went his way-Cleycland Plain Dealer.

SINGULAR STATEMENT.
From Mrs. Rank to Mrs. Pinkham

The following letter to Mrs. Pink ham from Mrs. NJ. RANK, No. 2,354 East Susquehanna Ave, Philadelphia, Pa, is a remarkable statement of re- lief from utter diseoGrageIaent. She says.
 never can find words with which to thank you for what Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound has done for me.
 Some years ago Ihad womb trouble and doctored for long time, not see ing any improvement. At times I would feel well enough, and other times was miserable. So it went on until last October, I felt something terrible creeping over me, 1 knew not what, but kept getting worse. I can hardly explain my feelings at that time l was so depressed in spirits that l did not wish to live, although I had everything to live for. Had hys- teria, was very nervous; could not sleep and was not safe to be left alone.
 !" Indeed, I thought would lose my mind. No one knows what I endured.
 continued this way until the last of February, when I saw in paper a testimonial of lady whose case was similar to mine, and who had been cured by Lydia E. Pinkhams yegeta- bIe Compound. l determined to try it. and felt better after the first dose. continued taking it, and to-day am a well woman, and can say from my heart. Thank God for such medi. cine. :"
