NO WOMAN IS EXEMPT.

Rcgularityis matter OF importance
In every wonan's life. Much pain Is,
however, endured in the belief that it
Is necessary and not alarming, when
in truth 1t Is all wrong and indicates
arrangement that may cause serious
trouble.
Excessive monthly pain itself will
unsettle the nerves and make women
old before their time.
The foundation OF woman's health Is
perfectly normal and regular per-
formance Of natures function. The
statement we priut from Miss GER

In every city, town ana hamlet in this
country. Read what she says:

new person since following your nd
vice, and think it is my duty TO let the
public know the good your remedies
have done me. My troubles were pain
full ncustruatiou and leucorrhea. I
was nervous and had spells OF being
confused. Before using your remedies
] never had any faith in patent medi-
cines. Inow wish to say that never
had anything do me SO much good for
painful nenstruation as Lydia f. Pinlt-

1ScAsE OF FIRE.
Precautions That Should be Taken
And How 10 Escape.


The proverbial ounce OF prevention Is
worth several pounds of cure in case
OF fire. and IT Is well to cultivate pres
ence OF mind in ourselves and our chill
dren: II Is better still 10 take care. for
one thing. that the clothing is made OF
slow burning fabrics
For example haBnelette which Is u.s.

ments. especially those worn by emf
dren, could be treated in this way, we
should not hear OF SO many deaths from
the ignition OF clothing.
When fire occurs. by splnshing ana
spraying Burning articles with solu-
ton OF sal; and nitrate of ammonia, an
incombustiblc coating Is at once formed.
This Is u preparation which should be
kept on hand. and is easily home
made at a triiling cost. Dissolve tweh-
ty pounds OF common salt and ten
pounds of nitrate OF ammonia In seven
gallons of water. Pour this into quart
bottles OF thin glass and you have nrc
grenatles at hand in case OF fires. Inc
bottles should be tightly c0rked and
sealed TO prevent evaporation, ana
when there Is u fire they must be
thrown In or near the flames. so aS TO
break and thus lIberate the gas con-
tained. to effect the desired result. Al
least two dozen OF these bottles should
be ready In case OF need.
II Is well to remember that water
poured on burning oil Is only fuel to
the flame. Scatter flour over the oil
and the blaze will be speedily eXtin-
guished.
Salt thrown upon a Hre--for instance,
II the chimney Is on ilre-will help TO
deaden the blaze If chimney ilues

Should the smoke fill the room be-

ago!
And now we are told that this elegant
new car in which we are sailing down
SeIby avenue is but the first Of those cars
which are to entirely replace the older
patterns now In use. The Twin Cities are
to be supplied with these fine new cars
to the almost total exclusion OF all others
of inferior make. And the few old rick
ETY. tracks that were laid in our streets
for the old horse car of twenty years
ago have now grown to the magnificent
proportions of $40 miles Of rails for the
two cities.
And yet we are forced to the conclusion
that we are still but at the beginning of
the magnificent system of electric cars
which is to be ours in the not distant
future. The. Twin Cities already stand
far in advance Of all other cities In the
growth. management and excellence of
their street railway system. Even the
cable car is now obsolete with us. 1t is
thing of the past, laid reverently to
rest beside the old worn-out horse that
served us so long and faithfully. Elec-

difficult to obtain. It was true that Tom

Henry Jackson and P. X. Johnson with
a syndicate behind them, had selected
Mankato, and think there was settler
