YOUNG AT SIXTY.

Serene comfort and happiness in ad.
vanced years are realized by compare.
lively few women.
Their hard lives, their liability to Sc
rious troubles on account of their pecu-
liar organism and their profound igno-
rance concerning themselves, all COM
bine to shorten the period of usefulness
and fill their later years with suffering.
Mrs. Pinkham has done much to make
women strong. She has given advice
to many that has shown them how to
guard against disease and retain vigor.
Gus health in old age. From every cor
ner of the earth there is constantly COM
ing the most convincing statements
from women, showing the efficacy of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound in overcoming female ills. Here
is a letter from Mrs. j. G. Orms, of 900
Homer St., Johnstown, Pa, which is
earnest and straight to the point:
"DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM:-I feel it nv
duty to tell all suffering women that I
think your remedies are wonderful. I
had trouble with my head, dizzy spells
and hot flashes. Feet and hands were
cold, was very nervous, could not sleep

ovaries and congestion of. the womb.
Since taking your remedies 1 am better

gone, have no pain in ovarics, and nm

consider your medicine the best to be
had for female troubles"

lelled, for years she worked side by

How to Keep an Alligator.

To those who may think of keeping
an alligator n brief description of the
best way to house him may be useful.
Procure a good-sized box, say two or
three feet square, and a baking pan
about half the size of the box, to hold
the water (Which should be changed
every day or two), then cover the floor
of the box with sand. Put glass or
wire netting on two of the sides and on
the top of the box. Glass is better, be-
cause it retains the heat in the box, but
you must be sure to freely admit the
air.
For food, raw meat given on a straw,
to seem alive; flies and worms an small
live fish form an alligator's favorite diet.
But as he is not demonstrative his air of
content is apt to lead one to neglect him
unless special care is taken. Remember
that the alligator is accustomed to the
heat of Florida and keep him in a warm
room during the winter.
/ an sure that aliigators are more in
telligent than they are generally
thought to be. Indeed, l have heard Of
one in a South American country which
having been caught when very young
and patiently trained, would follow its
master like a dog and was perfectly
docile.-St. Nicholas.

TRYING A HORSE

And now we will suppose that an an
NAL answering this description has
finally been selected, and certified by
the vet to be sound and of proper age
that is, not under five. There remains
for him and for paterfamilias only the
ordeal of the family. When the new
purchase-harnessed we will assume,
to a two-seatcd wagons brought
around for the first drive, he is received
in gloomy silence, the young ladies be-
ing disguised with his color. They ex-
pected n strawberry roam, or ut least u
rich bay, whereas he is Of "a shade which
they stigmatize at once as yellow
ocher." The eldest son, who by contin-
ually frequeniing the nearest livery
stable has acquired some reputation in
the family rs n horseman, would be
glad to suggest curb, or quartcr-crack,
or weakness in the of knee; but being
oyerawed by the superior authority q
the vet, he contents himself with "a crit
zeal examination of the animals eye, IL
which he processes to discover n spirit
of devilish malignity that bodies i'll for

Eke their seats, paterfamilias firmly
grasping the reins, and prepared for
the worst. The first drive with n new
horse is commonly one of silent and
resolute anticipation. That the animal
will behave well no one expects. 'RhC
only doubt is rs 10 whether he viii
stand still and kick. run away, or sud,
denly develop some iucurable disease
but as mile after mile is slowly hui
steadily reeled off without accident, the
horse exhibiting no special depravity
and no signs of lameness, the spirits o
paterfamilias rise. He touches the new
steed with his whip, cuts out an ex
press wagon in grand style, and. finally
brings up with n flourish at the home
curbstone.
Already the new horse has passe,
from the awful region of the mysteriou
to hat of the homely and familiar, an,
now presents himself to the imagination
Of his owners, not rs an unknown brute
but as a faithful Dobbin, destined, 10
us hope, to a long and useful career

Hoods pills cure nausea, indigestion
Echoes of the War.

Minneapolis Tribune: BY the way,
what has become of the Cuban junta?
Has it taken to the woods with Gen
u Gomez?
Des Moines Leader: Dewey was the
first hero of the war, and, reversing
the usual order, it looks as if he were
going to be the best.
st. Paul Dispatch: The records show
that Spain has lost twenty-one naval
vessels during this war. The newspa-
pers beat the record by some $4,000.
Brooklyn Citizen: The queen re-
gent had better get Toral's troops
back to Spain as soon as possible. She
may need them to give Don Carlos the
spanking he is aching for.
Cedar Rapids Gazette: The Span
iards are now justified i'm the assertion
that at least n small part of Cuba has
been pacified and there are other por-
tons whose turns will soon come.
Cleveland Leader: Admiral Dewey
has put in a requisition for 10000
pounds of soap and there is sure to
be a lively exodus of Dons from Ma
Mia as o o as they hear hat he has
got it.
. Chicago Journal: The Spanish plan
to send a fleet to Puerto Rico is a good
one compared with the plan to send a
fleet to Manila. 1t would have just the
same result, and there would be no ca
nal tolls to pay.
Minneapolis Journal: The Spanish
senoras and senoritas averted their
faces when the Americans entered
Santiago, but their husbands and
sweethearts lost 10 time in dctcrmin-
eddy confronting the free lunches
served ON the docks.
Dcs Moines State Register: Aud
now comes the news that the people
of the Canary islands are about to re-
volt and throw off the rule of Spain.
Poor old Spain seems to be getting il
in the neck from all sides this year,
and even her own children are fight
ing her.
Chicago Tribune: The German
kaiser has not yet ventured to say
whether he thought the destruction of
Cervera's fleet and the capture of San
tiago an 'amateurish" performance or
not, rs he pronounced the sinking of
Aontejo's feet in Manila a couple Of
months ago.
Chicago News: The yellow and red
banner of Spain no longer floats over

has made quick, neat, clean work Of
the Spaniards where it has first met
them and proved itself Il worthy part
ncr Of the gallant victorious navy.
Philadelphia Record: admiral
Simpsons official report of the naval
battle of July 3 was mailed at Guam
tanamo on Saturday last. and it is eN-
pectcd to arrive at Washington t0mor-
row.. Then the public may discern
how little truth there has been In the
idle rumors Of a lack of harmony be-
tween the commander of the fleet and
his subordinate officers.
st. Louis Republic: Dewey's repu-
tation as a diplomatist promises to
equal his ability as a sea captain.
While we are i'm the imperial business,
1t would save much agitation among
the great thinkers at Washington To
appoint Dewey king of the philippines
and let him rustic. And we would
bank ON Dewey outlasting Alfonso as
a throne holder.

A Chcnn Silver Poli,h.

Chicago Record: Unless one is for
tunate to have trained servants the
polishing of the silverware, If kept
properly bright, must be superintend-
ed, if not actually done, by the mis-
tress. The dining room silver is iowa
days but q small part of that in use by
the average household, for my lady's
dressing table, and for hat matter
also that of her liege lord, is bravely
dccked out with this ware. Cleaning
with powder is very laborious, but a
good liquid polish almost makes play
of this important work. A big bottle
of the following should be always kept
on hand: A pound of whiting is the
first requisite, and 5 cents will buy
this if the slight extra trouble is token
of buying it at a painters supply es-
Establishments; that sold for four times
this amount at the grocer's is no bet
ter, and il will be a satisfaction to
some of our readers to learn hat a
well known jeweler declares that ordi-
nary whiting is preferred by him and
others of his line of business to any
other material for cleaning their
goods.
Sift the whiting into a big bowl;
add four unces eight tablespoonfuls)
of spirits of terpentine, two ounces Of
spirits of wine, N of spirits Of cam
phor and half an ounce of spirits of
hartshorn; mix thoroughly, and when
creamy pour into big-mouthed bottle;
shake before using, pour a little into
a saucer, apply literally with a soft
cloth, and after allowing the articles
to stand until dry polish with a dry
cloth and finish with a chamois skin.
This liquid is of itself eficacious IN
cleaning, and thus violent rubbing is
not required.

Captain Tredennick, sir-when her own
dear mamma was living"
And Of course you are very fond of
herr" He uttered the words rs he stood,
holding her hand still in his, looking down
from his five feet eleven of masculine
height and strength ON the slender little
womanly figure, looking so oddly old
fashioned and young and helpless in the
ridiculously long trailing dress and shawl
ON the anxious white brow, the sad little
mouth, the downcast eyelids, and the rich
beauty of her luXuriant hair, at variance
in its wealth OF loneliness with that quiet
grave face, Boosting Of no fairness save its
intelligence, gentlcness, and womanly
purity. "Poor little girlr' he said, pity
ingly TO himself-'poor dear little girlN
Asst answering his thoughts, Mrs. Grose,
the worthy, rotund cook, responded affec-
tionately to his question
Indeed, Captain Stephen, sir, there's
not many who could help being fond of
my poor little Miss Winnie"
And on the spot n queer idea fitted
through Captain Tredennick's mind-that
if this poor little girl belonged to him in
any way, how fond of her he should be
it would be such a pleasure TO take cara Of
a meek, gentle little creature like her!
A full hour and a half af, crwards that
is, at twenty minutes TO twelve-Captain
Stephen ~Tredennick, who had quilted
Madam Vivian's society at hulf-past nine
o'clock, fatigued and unsocial in humor,
was sitting before the study-tire, smoking,
with as little notion of, or desire for, re-
firing to rest as he had had at dinner
time. Madam Vivian did not know it,,
fortunately.
Busily and dreamily rs the minutes
slipped by and heightened into half hours,
Captain T~redennick's mind went over u
variety of subjects, whilst the odorous
clouds of tobacco-smoke wove wreaths Of
misty fancies around him, and the soft
rustic of n falling cinder from the red fire
alone broke the hushed silence.

Life and the Liver,

Success in life depends upon the liver
is the way Chas. Lamb, the poet and pun
ster, put it. Medical science has proven
that nine-tenths Of the ailments OF living
have their origin in the liver, and in con-
stipation caused by its arrangements.
Keep the liver lively and all will be well.
Modern science points out Cascarets as
the only perfect, gentle, positive liver reg
ulator fit to be used in the delicate human
organism. All druggists sell Cascarets
10c, 25c, 50c, and we recommend them
most heartily.
