Loose clothes and downy cushions
bring only negative sort of comfort
to the woman who is suffering with
some disease or arrangement of the
organs distinctly feminine. Some
clothes and some positions make
the pain and the discomfort seem
less. Perhaps the nerves are most
affected and this in turn disturb the
digestion. Nothing will ever COM
pletely relieve but radical cure.

Eternity.

Here is a schoolboy's definition OF
eternity: "When our ships all come
in; when the sea gives up the dead I;
when Father Time hangs up his
scythe; when the heavens are rolled
up like scroll; when Gabriel blows
the rams horn; when the solar sys-
tenn collapse; when we find the lost
Charlie Ross and the man who struck
Billy Patterson; when Johnny gets
bis gun; when society becomes pure,
