in the dress circle. The curtain had
just gone up for the second act, the first
scene showing the heroine in street cos
tune AS Bilkins rested his gaze upon
the woman his face wore a puzzled ex-
preston. Several times he took hurried
chances at the programme he had in his
hand. He became so deeply interested
that.he attracted the attention of his
wife.
"What do you see that interests you
so?" inquired his wife. ''She isn't
pretty"
"May, isn't that the same hat that
woman wore in the last act?' exclaim-
ed Bilkins, seemingly ignoring his

on Thursday morning, and that after

were collected by two or three of the
students, who constituted a sort Of
finance committee. Every Friday morn
ing the professor gave lecture to the
students in the amphitheater The sub
Ject for the lecture that week was 'The

petticoat, nursing bottle lying in a
graduated glass, pair of little blue kid
shoes and other things too numerous to
mention. After the first shock of sur

THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.
Daughters Should be Carefully
Guided in Early Womanhood.

What suffering frequently results
from a mothers ignorance; or more
frequently from a mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughter! i.
Tradition says woman must suffer, !"
and young women are SO taught.
There is little truth and great deal
of exaggeration in this. If young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment and her mother should see
that she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to a physician for examlna-
ton; but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure
the most efficient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address ID
Lynn, Mass.
The following letter from Miss MARIE
F. JOHNSON, Centralia, Pa, shows what
neglect will do, and tells how MRS.
Pinkham helped her:
"My health became SO poor that 1
had to leave school. Twas tired all the
time, and had dreadful pains in my
side and back. I was also troubled
with irregularity of menses. l was
very weak, and lost so much flesh that
nv friends became alarmed. My
mother, who is firm believer in your
remedies from experience, thought per-
haps they might benefit me, and wrote
you for advice. followed the advice
you gave, and used Lydia E. Pinkhams
Vegetable Compound and Liver Pills as
you directed, and am now as well as
ever was. l have gained flesh and have
a good color. am completely cured OF
irregularity."

directed to get to the stage door by the
entrance from Bank street and then
carry the cruel into the greenroom.

The Ohio River railroad did the
graceful thing when it declared
that as far as possible it's employees
should have a Saturday half-holiday
every week. This is progressive
philantrophy in the direction of

problem which will be practical.
When the employer strives to bet
ter the condition of the employe
there is little danger of strikes OF
riots.
