ALMOST CAME TO BLOWS.

An Incident Illustrative of Chicago Lam
guagc and Theatrical Tempers.
The other morning there dropped in
to the gallery Of photographers who
has 6ng made speciality Of taking the
pictures of theatrical celebrities big
strapping western man who came to see
his friend, the photographer. The young
woman behind the counter, who knew
the caller, had just been reading in q
newspaper a savage "roast" Of his ma
tive city Of Chicago. She handed the
paper to the westerner to read. expect
ing to get some amusement out OF his
comments. The Chicagoan was in the
midst Of his reading, bristling with
wrath, when the husband of we'll
known actress entered the room. A
framed portrait of the actress, taken
several years ago, stood on an easel in a
corner. The husband walked up to the
picture, and after contemplating it for
few minutes said:
''My wife is certainly remarkable
woman. That picture was taken all Of
five years ago, yet she is younger look.
ing and handsomer today than it is
Just then the westerner finished the
Chicago story.
"Well, / don't think, - he exclaimed
loudly and emphatically, throwing the
paper down upon the counter.
"What right have you, sir, to think
anything about it?' demanded the ac-
tress' husband angrily.
"Who gave you control over my
thinker" retorted the astonished west
erner.
"Think what you please to yourself,
but you shan't insult my wife, sir, !"
shouted the husband.
"Your wife? Where is she? Are you
a lunatic?''
"No, sir, but you are big bully, !"
cried the husband, dancing with wrath.
The little woman behind the counter,
who had been convulsed with laughter,
tried to explain the mistake, but the in
dignant husband refused to listen.
Nothing but an apology would satisfy
him, and he made dramatic exit from
the gallery, saying that the westerner
would "hear from him again" He
went home and wrote letter to the
photographer saying that he had been
insulted and threatening to withdraw
his wife's custom if the apology was
not Forthcoming. The photographer was
obliged to write several letters before
he could calm the troubled waters
Meantime the Chicagoan went home,
firm in the conviction that he had mar
rowly escaped hitting crazy man.

great Frenchman who cast his fortunes
with America when the battle for inde-
pendence was at it's height, is in the

Peary, the Explorer, on Baking Pow
ders.

Those going to the Klondike must re-
member that reliable baking powder is
an absolute necessity. If, after long
and expensive trip and the great cost OF
transportation, the baking powder proves
inferior or has lost it's strength, the
miner will be practically helpless. 1t is
no time or place to experiment. What
is required is baking powder that has
actually stood the test of the arctic
climate.
The wellknown explorer, Lieut.. Peary,
u. s. n, says of Cleveland's baking pow
der, which he used on his Arctic Expe-
ditions:
"Cleveland's stood the tests of use in
those high latitudes and severe temper
atures perfectly and gave entire satisfac-
ton. Mrs. Peary considers that there is
no better baking powder made than
Cleveland's. / shall take it again on my
next Expedition"

We all know what toothache. is, with the
nagging, jumping, throbbing of single
nerve in a single tooth. Now when we
come to reflect that system ofnerves con-
centrated in some part of the body are all
aching at once, with their throbs and pull
sations of pain, we know what the worst
form of Neuralgia is. 1t is very common,
very violent, simply because tits very often,
like toothache, allowed to take its own
course. Now it is known as a fact that
when st. Jacobs Oil is used on the parts
affected, with patient application, the pain
will succumb and relief fwillcertainly follow.
This is true of acuteor chronic cases found

INVITATION.

Women suffering from any form Of
female weakness are invited opromptly
communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at
Lynn, Mass. ALI letters are re-,
ceived, opened, read, and answered by
women only. A woman can freely
talk of her private illness to a woman.
Thus has been established the eternal
confidence between Mrs. Pinkham and
the women of America which has never
been broken. Out of the vast volume
of experience which she has to draw
from, it is more than possible Chat she
has gained the very knowledge that
will help your case. She asks nothing
In return except your good will, and
her advice has relieved thousands.
Surely any woman, rich or poor, isvery
foolish if she does not take advantage
of this generous offer of assistance.

And consider that in addressing Mrs.
Pinkham you are confding your private
Ills to a woman-a woman whose ex-
perience in treating woman's diseases
is greater than that of any living ply
sician, male or female.
You can talk freely to a woman when
it is revolving to relate your private
troubles to man; besides, a man does
not understand, simply because he isa
