In connection with the matter Of
coast defences, a curious fact has ccnF
to light concerning the little city Of
Eastport, Me, which is the easternmost
settlement Of amy size in the country.
Eastport is on an island I'D Passama-
quoddy bay aud is hedged SO closely
about by islands owned by Great Brit
ain that it would BE impossible for any
vessel to attack the place without COINS
into British waters or firing over Brit.

serted Eastport would be the best forti-
fed place in the United States in case

The door of health stands open to every
woman who will enter All that she needs
is the key and a little knowledge. The
knowledge that she needs is concerning her
own nature, her own physical makeup and
the principal cause of ill-health in women.
When a woman suffers from headaches
and pains in the back and sides, and burn
ing and dragging sensations and the weak
ness, nervousness and dependency that
are caused by diseases peculiar to her sex,
she cannot enj oy good general health. The
key to the door of health-the cure for all
disorders of this description-isD Dr.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. 1t is a medicine
specially devised for disorders of this ua-
ture and no other. 1t is the invention of
an eminent and skillful specialist, DR.. r. V.
Pierce, for thirty years chief consulting
physician to the Invalids Hotel and Surgi-
cal Institute, at Buffalo, N. Y. When a
woman writes to DR.. Pierce she consults
a physician who has practiced for thirty
years right in one place, and who was some
years ago honored by his own townspeople
by All election to the National Congress.
He will answer letters from women free of
charge. All professional correspondence is
regarded as sacred1y confidential.

NOT SO GREEN
The MotCrman Recognized the COndi-
tions That Called for Care.


tions That Called for Care.
The uptown bound cable car appar-
emily was in the hands of green motor
man, says the New York Sun. At least
that was the way the crowd of passen-
gers accepted it, when, after each stop,
it started up again with a violent jerk,
which threw big men around like skit-
ties. Straps were of no value.
At Prince street a little old man got
die of the car. He lost something of his
mildness of expression when he was
thrown suddenly and forcibly against
a young woman, knocking off her hat,
but he said nothing. Next a big man
made a parabolic swing, landed, and
nearly knocked him through the win
dow. Then the face of the little man
grew very red. He pushed his way to
the front door and shaking his finger
In the motorman's surly visage,
threatened to throw him off the car and
run the thing himself. The motorman
"sassed'' back, but the excited little
passenger talked fast and dared him
to do it again. Then he shut the doof
and waited; and every one held his
breath when the bell rang
But the fight did not come off. The
car started as gently as molasses, and
never once from Prince street, where
that one little man stood on his rights,
up to Fiftieth street did the car start
in any but the smoothest way.
That motorman was not so green.

MONEY SHIPPED BY MAIL.
A State of Affairs That Makes Bills
Scarce just Now in the Northwest.

A State of Affairs That Makes Bills
Scarce just Now in the Northwest.
A curious state of affairs prevails at
present in the banks of the northwest.
Go to a bank with d check, ask the teller
to cash it, and he will pay you in gold.
Ask him for bills and he will tell you
that he cannot accommodate you. Cur
rency is so scarce in Minneapolis, st.
Paul and other northwestern cities
that the banks are compelled 10 pay in
gold. The reason for this state of af-
fairs is that the bills are being shipped
to the east in mail sacks. The cashier
of Minneapolis bank gave the follow
ing explanation:
''The reason why we refuse to pay out
currency is that we are sending remit
tances east through the mails, instead
Of by express, as in the past, and, of
course, owing to the expense, we send
nothing but paper money. Just 1t pres
ent the balance of trade is against us
and the money is flowing out. This
causes the scarcity of currency, and It
is a fact that Minneapolis and st. Paul
are practically drained of all bills of
large denominations. In former days
we were accustomed to ship money by
express, and when we did that bullion
was sent.
'Some time ago the companies raised
the charges somewhat, and the banks
refused to accede to the increased rate
Then the present scheme was devised.
The money is sent by registered mail,
and the cost between here and Chicago
is 20 cents per $1,000. BY paying an ad-
ditional 10 cents upon each thousand
the shipment is insured by London
institution. The express companies
were charging US so cents per thou
sand, but have recently reduced their
charge to 65 cents. Of course, we
should prefer to ship by the express
companies and are willing to pay them
a higher price than the cost by mail,
but lot the present difference.
