The Uses of Fruit.

OF all the classes Of natures edible
productions that of fruit is most pleas
ing to the senses. That fruit alone will
not sustain life for a prolonged period
is true but that the organic salts and
acids Of fruit are necessary to the main
tenance Of perfect health is equally COR
rest. Professor A. r. Elliott, in the
Dietetic and Hygienic Gazette, sum-
marizes the uses Of fruit as follows:
!. To furnish variety to the diet.
2. To relieve thirst and introduce
water into the system.
g. To furnish nutriment
4, To supply organic salts essential to
proper nutrition.
5. To stimulate the kidneys, increase
the flow Of urine, and lower its acidity.
g. To act as laxatiVes.
T. To stimulate and improve appetite
and digestion.
g. To act as anti-scorbutics.
Concerning the mode Of preparation,
ripe fruits as a rule do not need to be
cooked, and are much more palatable
and equally nutritious in the uncooked
state. The proper time to eat fruits is
either at the beginning Of the meal or
between meals, when they aid diges-
tiOn and exert the greater laxative ef-
feet. Taken at the completion of the
meal, they dilute the gastric juice and
tend to embarrass digestion.

The fact that several dollars spent for the
right madeleine has effected a cure where a
skilled and expensive physician aided by
the latest and most ingenious instrument Of
science, had failed, Is a matter Of much
importance.
Important because Il opens to downcaSt
sufferers new, inexpCnSive and sure
avenue TO the restoration Of health and the
full enjoyment Of the pleasures Of life.
Such was the experience Of Mrs. Ada
N. Herr, Of 439 North ChafIotte Street,
Lancaster, Pa
From weak, nervous, dcspOndinR per-
son, she was made strong, active woman
and a cheerful, helpful wife.
Hsr story Is interesting.
Mrs. Hcer suffered terribly from female
disorder. Her nerves became unStrung,
cramps gripcd her and caused the most
intense pain.
So weak and physically demoralized
was abe, that the slightest labor wearied
her and household duties were burden.
The most alarming symptoms Of her
maladY were the frequent fainting spells
that afflicted her.
In the midst Of her work, or In con-
versation, dizziness would come upon her
and she would fall PROSTATE in a swoon.
She consulted a reputable physician. He
diagnosed her cass and prescribed the uSual
remedies.
Instead Of improving, she continued 10
grow worse the ailment that was robbing
her life Of the Joys Of young womaOhood
became more pronounced

1t seemed impossible 10 correct or even "a
check the disorders.
Il had become greatly weakened, J" said
lAfS. Herr, In telling her story to a re porter,
"and the awful cramps and the frequency
and nature Of the fainting spells alarmed
mt beyond belief and Shattesed my system.

Hted. After taking SIX more boxes I waS

People had done what all the prevlons

NOdiseovery Of modem times has proved
Such boon 10 women as Dr.. WilliamS' Pink
Pills for Pale People, Acting directly on
the blood and nerves, invigorating the body,
regulating the functions, they Festore the
strength and health to the exhausted woman
when every effort Of the physician proves
Unavailing.
These pills are recognized everywhere
as a specific for diseases Of the blood and
nerves. For paralysis, lOeomotOr ataxia,
and other diseases long supposed ineurable,
they have proved their efficacy 10 thousands
Of cases. Truly they are one Of the greatest
blessings ever bestowed upon rnankind,

HER ANSWER.

And you really have made up your mind, Jack,
That I shall in time be your wifeH
Why, 'tis two long years since we parted,
And the years with changes are rife.
And 80 seems like dream, that far morning
When watched you In sorrow depart
And Sancied perhaps for n moment
You had taken with you my heart.
But doubt crept in when your letters
Dropped from thirteen n week to two,
And found that my thoughts, to be quito
frank,
We're not always wholly Of you.
And then you wrote should always be true,
Though you held yourself quite free,
And pair of gray eyes appeared In my dreams
Where your eyes OF brown used TO be.
And / really cannot become your WIFE,
This romance Of yOurs--ib must end,
For wllilO yOH wer0 making up your mind
I fmGrried the colonel, your friend
-CAllio Bonney Marble.

Charities Review.

Charities Review
From Philadelphia, Chicago, Dayton
(0hiO), Providence (RhOde Island) and
Kansas City the reports of the past
season are those of the first year. All
have profted by the experience else
where, and all report most encouraging
results. In Chicago forty acres were
under cultivation In 148 allotments.
Thirteen natiOnalities were represented
among the gardeners, though Americans
predominated. Sixteen different kinds
Of vegetables were raised, An out
growth Of the summers work has been
tho formation among the gardeners and
their friends Of regular society called
the Peoples Friendly club, which meets
every Saturday night to enjoy u pro-
gram given mainly by the members
themselves, and including a discussion
Of social questions At Dayton, o., the
work was undertaken by the associated
charities and the single tax club. About
forty acres were planted, and 167 fam
dlies, representing about $50 persons,
took lots Of about quarter of an acre
each. The reports indicate q financial
success, and plans are being made to
make an early start in 1898 on very
much larger scale than last year. AT
Kansas City the work was begun in
1897 by the agricultural commission.
One hundred and ten allOtments were
made. 1t Is interesting to notice the
variety OF crops in this report: Pota-
tOcs, turnips, onions, beets, beans, to-
matoes cabbage, corn, melons, squash
es, peas, radlshes, lettuce, cucumbers,
sweet potatoes, mustard green's, okra,
navy shelled peas. At Duluth, Minn.,
the work was carried on during the past
season, as indeed 1t had been for two
years previous by Bishop McGolrlck,
OF the pro-cathedral, to whom land was
freely offered for the purpose The
bishop says that 12O families were as
sisted. and that the results indicate to
him that with organization the plan
could be made very effective means OF
furnishing temporary relief in cases of
need. AZ Reading, Pa, citizens COM
mittee was organized In pursuance of O
resolution passed IN April, 1896 About
sixteen acres of land were secured and
divided up in lots OF about one-sixth of
an acre each; LOG applications were re-
ceived and allotments made to ninety

senting four nationalities, namely:

The kindergarten.

The first American kindergarten
school was founded by Miss Caroline
Louise Frankenberg at Columbus, O.,
In 1858. Ten years thereafter Miss Eliza
beth Peabody, of Boston, went to Ger
many to study the system Of kindergar-
ten schools under Froebel, and Miss
Peabody is generally regarded as the
founder Of this system of teaching in
this country. This system has grown SO
rapidly and become so popular and use

Cheapest Railroad In the World.

Probably the cheapest railroad In the
world was built in Oregon in 1892 Dur
ing the preceding year the Northern
Pacific Railroad Company surveyed It's
line between Portland and Olympia, ter
tninating at the latter place, but only
Tor q short time; then 1t was moved
away to Tacoma, thirty-fve miles fur
ther north.
AT that the people Of Olympia arose in
Indignation, called a meeting, and, after
vigorously discussing the ways and
means, resolved that, although the rail-
road had been both given and taken
away, they were not bound to submit
az unto the Lord, but would build one
for themselves, and build 1t with vol
nIitaTy subscriptions of labor and mate

One bright morning in April the
Olympia brass band halted at the cor
n0T OF Maine and Fourth streets, Charlie
Changers bay mule Betty fell in behind,
then came tho officials of both city and
county, led by the Governor and fol-
lowed by the citizens, until the whole
procession was half a mile In length.
They marched to a high bluff above the
capitol building, and there the Mayor of
the city and the Governor both made
speeches, and q prayer was offered. The
first sod was turned and the grading OF
the road began in earnest. One day in
every week was set apart as field day,
when the city and county officials came
out as at first, the merchants closed their
stores, and mechanics shut their shops,
and young men and old men, boys and
Indians. piled the spade with hearty
will, while the women spread the ta-
bles with all things needed for mid

Week after week the work went on,
