NERVOUS DEPRESSION.
IA TALK WITH MRS. PIsKlIAn,l

A woman with the blues II q very un-
comfortable person, She is illogical,
unhappy and frequently hysterical.
The condition OF the mind known aa
"the blues,0 nearly always, with wo-
men, results from diseased organs OF
generation.
IL Is n source Of wonder that In this
age OF advanced medical science, any
person should still believe that mere
force OF will and determination win
overcome depressed spirits and nerv-
business in women. These troubles are
Indications OF disease.
Every woman who doesn't under
stand her condition should write 10
Lynn, Mass, TO Mrs Pinkhnm for her
advice. Her advice Is thorough COM
mon sense, and Is the counsel Of
learned woman Of great experience.
Read the story Of Mrs Il. s. BENNETT,
Westphnlia, Kansas, us told In the fol.
lowing letter;
"DEAR MRs. PNKHAM;--I have suf.
fered for over two years with falling,
enlargement and liberation OF the
womb, and this spring, being in such
weakened condition, caused me to
ilow for nearly six months. Some time
ago, urged by friends, / wrote TO you
for advice, After using the treatment
which you advised for n short time,
that terrible flow stopped.
~ am now gaining strength and
flesh, and have better health than
have had for the past ten years, I
wish TO say TO all distressed, suffer-
ing women, do not suffer longer, when
there Is one SO kind and willing 10
aid YOU"

Dupis stopS n Stampede.


A stampede Of 800 cavalry horses
through the streets of San An
tonic the other day caused a panic,
and sent the blood Of the frontlersmen
jumping through their veins as 1t has
not jumped since the days when Texas
was a republic, The mounts of the
First Texas cavalry broke away from
corral at Fort Sam Houston, on Gov
eminent hill, about three miles from
the Alamo. Some Of the horses had
been in service for years, but the ma
jorlty OF them were Cow ponies" that
had never been drilled. Across the
prairie ground they dashed, following
dun mare with flowing name. Two
cavalrymen attempted to round up the
herd. On went the flying steeds across
the parade and into the drill ground
they galloped, when suddenly there
came from the direction Of the OFF,
GERS houses a bugle call. Chargers
which had often responded to this call
insensibly slackened their speed. Again
rang out a call.
The dun mare and one-third Of the
stampeded horses continued their
flight, while the other two-thirds
turned sQuarely at right angles. The
bugler repeated columns right" and
the two-thirds again turned at right
angles, and galloped back In the direc-
ton from which they came. Once
more the bugle rang out. The plung-
ing mass took form and steadled Its
gait. Again the bugle sounded. The
battalion broke the gallop, went into
O trot, and wheeled into the parade
ground. The bugler sounded Halt"
and that part Of the stampede was
over.
But the dun pony and her followers
from the ranges continued their mad
flight through San Antonio. Every
thing movable in the way Of the
horses was overturned and demol-
ished. Pedestrians fed In every direc-
ton, while many carriage horses
Joined the horses OF the plains. Over
the bridge flew the wild steeds. One
horse dashed It's head against a tele-
graph pole, and the dun mare lost q
follower. Another's fore legs went
through q basement hole In the side
walk and the unfortunate horse was
quickly trampled to death. A saloon
was reached, and one Of the COW
ponies was forced through It's doors
by the pushing horses as they contin-
ued A railroad train came rushing
along. With a bound the dun mare
cleared the track in front OF the loco
motive, but several Of her companions
were hurled to death in an endeavor to
follow.
The horses were divided only to
come togeth again when the train
dashed by, and resumed their flight
toward the prairies. Out into the mes
quite and sagebrush the dun mare led
them, and soon nothing was seen but
a cloud Of dust.
The trail Of the stampede was as
plain as the path Of a cyclone. No
lives were lost, but property damage
was very heavy. Squads Of cavalry
men started out and succeeded In rop-
ing in all but thirty OF the cow ponies.

The widespread public interest In
the contest for the fast mail contract
between Chicago and Omaha has
caused one temporarily to overlook
the similar achievement Of the Great
Northern railway In establishing
quick mail communication from New
York, via Chicago and st. Paul, to
Seattle, and thence to the Orient. The
fast Pacific mail service by way OF
st. Paul to the Puget Sound country
Is now quite as remarkable as that via
Omaha to San Francisco. On January
the Great Northern placed In serv-
Ice q fast through mail and passen-
ger train from Chicago to Seattle, on
which the mail pouches never once
leave the car after the transfer at
st. Paul.
From New York to Seattle the time
by this Northern route is just four
days. East of st. Paul the malls are
carried on several roads, but west OF
that city--on run exceeding the
eastern portion by 500 miles-the
mail goes through without change
across five great States on the tracks
Of the Great Northern. Forty-nve
minutes are consumed In transferring
the mails In Chicago, and thirty min
utes in st. Paul. After that the
Northern Oriental flyer does the rest
without a pause until the Asiatic
mails go on board the steamers OF
the Japan Mail Steamship Company.
Both the Importance Of Seattle as an
Oriental shipping point and the speed
OF the Great Northern transconti-
mental mail service make the achieve
ment a noteworthy feature Of Amer
lean railway progress.
The Puget Sound cities have al
ready become formidable rivals OF
San Francisco as regards the freight
and passenger traffic for Japan, China
and Asiatic ports. The steamer route
from Seattle to the Orient seems to
be more free from storms than that
from San Francisco, and as large
proportion Of the Oriental exports are
products OF the Northwest the freight
trafflc has naturally taken this course.
The fact that the full capacity OF the
Japan Mail Steamship Company's
boats is engaged as far ahead as next
August is in Itself striking proof OF
the growing Importance Of the
Oriental trade that has Its outlet at
Seattle.

the shooting that seemed 70 us necen-
sary, and my own notion was that any
OF us who got out whole would be
mighty lucky. The Spanish aim may
be bad, but there were many OF .us,
who wished II worse.
Bullets were dropping all around,
and go were men, and had spotted
one .spaniard who seemed TO be re-
sponslble for lot Of II. Well, was
Just getting a good bead on him when
II happened.
There was sudden shock that
didn't seem to strike any place In par
ticular on my head, but all over II.
My teeth ground together and my
eyes tried to get out OF their sockets
and escape, and no wonder, for my
head was full OF flames. Then every
thing went black. and l felt myself
falling.
That's the end OF me-" thought TO
myself before l lapsed into total
blankness; and. as remember 1t, /
didn't care a snap.
After that rolled down the hill,
II might have been any length OF time
for all l knew, when consciousness be-
gan to return. wondered what world
was In, and reckoned that / ought
to have pair OF wings OF ono kind or
another on my shoulders. II was some
thing OF a surprise to me to flnd they
were not there, but had felt that
bullet 90 through my head, and /
couldn't figure what right / had to be
alive.
AS soon as ! found l could move l
felt around for the bullet hole, but
couldn't find II. While I was search
ing and getting pretty mad about IT
not being able to find an escaped col
lar button is nothing to not being able
to find a mortal wound In your head
a couple OF fellows came along, picked
me up, and poured some water over
me.
Look out" / said; lt'll get into my
BRAIN" and l explained about the
wound.
They explored, and they couldn't
find any hole, either, and that made
me madder than ever, for bullet
that goes clean through a man with
out leaving any opening to show for
II is robblng him Of the glory OF dy-
Ing for his country.
All the time my head was feeling
like the inside Of mince pie, but
finally crawled back to the firing line,
and there they told me what had hap
pened.
The chap on my left, in rising to
fire, got Mauser bullet through his
heart, and in falling swung his gun
with great force over In my direction.
The butt caught me just behind the
ear and knocked me completely out. ]
have lump there now like the end OF
squash.
But it's q great thing TO have had
the experience OF being shot dead
without compelling your family to 80
into mourning.

The thermopile is an instrument
which instantly detects any emanatIon
or absorption Of ether waves or Of
radiant heat. The approach of any
body which is Of different temperature
from the air affects 1t. 1t Is proposed
TO try It for use at sea to indicate
the approach Of a vessel. A ship Is a
source Of ether waves and would af-
feet the modern almost inconcelvably
delicate thermoplle at some distance,

raphy may prove available for com.
munication between ships so as to
avoid or lessen the danger Of collision.

How 1t feels to be shot dead is the
subject OF some curious observations
on the part Of a trooper in Col. Roose-
velt's regiment, which was intended to
be made up Of rough riders, but from
force Of circumstance, was trans
formed, while in Cuba, into an organi-
cation OF rough walkers, This partic-
ular trooper was in the thick of the
fighting, and the New York Sun quotes
his story.
1t was the second day at San Juan,
and my troop was stretched out at full
length on its very much attenuated
stomach, shooting over the top Of the
hill. The Spanish were also doing all

More than to any other monarch We
owe to Charlemagne (76S-814) the fact
that the precious literary inheritance
OF Greece and Rome was not lost.
Himself imperfectly educated, he val
ued education in others and furth ,red
It with all his might. The impulse he
gave to classical studies resulted in
some Of the best manuscripts; In his
reign, too, the clear "minuscule" Of
the Irish scribes was substituted for
the uncouth Langobardic characters.
He also paid special attention to the
careful editing OF the prayer books.
His establishment Of an academy in
his palace is well known; what is not
30 we'll known is the fact that this fol-
lowed by schools under his patronage
at Wurzburg, Fulda, Utrecht, Tours,
and elsewhere. He also began to COM
pose grammar Of his native speech.

Old Ago Penslons.

The laboratory Of social and polit-
lcal experiments, New Zealand, has
this week definitely adopted scheme
Of old-age pensions. Already one mem
ber OF the Imperial Parliament has
slgni6ed his intention Of going to the
antipodes to study the operation OF the
act. Although, OF course, the condi-
tions which obtain In thinly popu-
lated, slxty-year-old colony must be
very different from those which exist
In an old and crowded country like
Great Britain, the experiment will be
watched with immense interest In
future the New Zealand working man
Of 65 years OF age, who has lived O life
OF honest toll, will be assured an In
come Of Fl q week. The New Zealand
government, accepting labor as the ba-
sis Of national prosperity, does not
see why the worker should not be
quite as fully entitled to some state
provision against poverty In old age
as q civil servant or other employe.
Last week Sir Michael Hicks-Beach
ridlculed the idea that we should be
called upon to provide old-age pen
