Hia Modest LunCheOMg.

1.-THE ordering Of my luncheon used
to be great nuisance" said lawyer
yesterday 81 would go into a cafe,
perhaps pretty hungry, but two or
tree minutes study Of the huge menu
would put me in an uncertain, irrita-
BILE mood, and no matter what I'd order
wouldn't enjoy 1t on account Of the
thought that / might have ordered
something different and better. 1t was
like going into public library to read.
With so many books there, it is i'm
possible to sit down and read one book
contentedly, as you can at home. But
now have an arrangement that makes
my luncheon joy. l said to my wait
er one day:
"'What eat here at noon costs me,
on the average, $1.25, and my average
tip to you is 20 cents. Now you ought
to know what nice luncheon is better
than do, so make you this proposals.:
Serve me every day lunch Of my
usual number of courses, and whatever
under $1.25 it costs you can keep
"The waiter jumped at that. He
brings me every day now better, meal
than would think of ordering myself,
and he makes from 20 to 80 cents by
keeping down the price. 1t is splen-
did scheme, and wonder why l never
thought of it before.''-Philadelp

LOST HALF HIS EAR.
Two Very Grateful People Speak Up.


Mr.. A. B. Hill of Vacaville feels
that he owes his life to DR. Chamley.
He had large cancer in his ear and
had consulted a number of the best
physicians he could find He under
went in all nine separate treatments,
IN the course of which the cancer
not only became worse, but one-half
OF his ear had been removed He ap-
Dl1ed to DR.. Chamley, November. 10.
1897. and was treated by the latter for
only two weeks. AS "a result. the
cancer was completely eradicated, not
a vestige of his terrible disease re-
naming.
Mr.. Mattias Gartner of: 2O19 Fif-
teenth street is another .convalscent
full of gratitude and praise for DR..
Chamley. Like many inveterate
smokers, he contracted cancer Of the
lip, and though his disease constantly
grew worse he could find no way of
checking it's inroads. He finally OBJ
tanned a copy Of DR.. Chamley's 120-
page free book on the cure of cancer
without knife or pain. and as a result
placed himself under the latter's care
at No. rs Third street. With the ex-
ception Of a small scar no trace Of the
cancer is left.
Women especially should consult the
Doctor at the appearance Of any lump
in the breast, as such will always

The New Military Division of the
Pacific.

ington.-Secretary Root took a
step long contemplated in the admin
istration Of the Philippines by direct
ing the creation of an entirely new
military division to be known as 'The
division Of the Pacific embracing all
of the Philippine archipelago. The di-
vision, in turn, is to be divided into four
military departments as follows:
The department of Northern Luzon,
commanded by General McAuthur. The
department of Southern LuZon, COM
manded by General Bates, the depart
ment of the Viscayas, commanded by
General Hughes, and the department
or Mindannao, and Jolo, commanded
by General Kobbe.
Major General Otis will retain the su-
preme comand over these departments
as division commander, occupying to-
ward them a position corresponding
closely to that occupied by General
Miles toward the military departments
in the United States. 1t is said at the
war department that the purpose of
the new order of things is to free
General Otis of many minor details
incident to the administration of the
islands, leaving him at liberty to devote
more time to large questions of policy
and civil administration.

Did You Ever See a Horse Cry,

DID YOu Ever see q Horse Cryy
Many people believe that horses do
not weep, but those who have much to
do with these faithful creatures know
that on several occasions they will
shed tears as well as express sorrow In
the most heartbreaking manner. In
the west where the hardness Of the
ponies causes the riders to almost over.
look the necessity Of providing for their
needs, it is quite common when the
weather is extremely cold to leave an
nnblanketed pony tied up for two or
three hours when the temperature is
nearly zero and while it's owner is
transacting business or getting drunk.
In this case the suffering Is evidenced
by the cries, which are almost like
Bobs, and unmistakable tears freeze on
to the cheeks like icicles.
When a horse falls in the street and
gets injured, the shock generally numbs
the senses so much that it does not Ell
ther cry or groan, but under some con-
ditions an injured horse will solicit
sympathy in the most distinct manner.
l remember favorite horse of my own
which trod on a nail long enough to
pierce it's foot. The poor thing hob

thing can describe. The sight was a

Questions
for
Women

If you were offered sure aid in time
of trouble would you put it aside
and accept something of doubtful
efficiency?
If you saw before you a strong and
safe bridge leading to your goal, would
you ignore it to try some insecure and
tottering structure
The answer to these questions is
plain. You would, of course, choose
without hesitation what all evidence
showed to be the safe thing, and you
would risk nothing in useless expert
ments.
Why, then, do some women risk one
of their most precious possessions
their health-in trying medicines of
unknown value, which may even prove
hurtful to them?
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound has stood the test of years. It
has the largest sale of any remedy for
female ills in the world, and nothing
could have given it this sale except its
own merit.

what is known to be reliable. Mrs.
Pinkham's Compound can do all that
Is claimed for it, and all statements in
regard to it can be easily verified.

Tie Jew. In Frankfurt.

George Brandes thus describes tie
position of the Jews in Frankfurt, Ger
many, at the beginning of the nine
teenth century: "All Jews were forced
to live In the narrow, miserable, over
crowded Judengasse Jew street,, their
sole abode since the year 1862. At the
beginning of night all the inhabitants
Of the ghetto were locked in. They
were not allowed to use the sidewalk
while walking in the street in the day
time, but had to take the middle Of the
street. They had to remove their hats
before every passerby, who would call
out, Jew, make your bow!
'"To prevent too large an increase not
more than IA couples were permitted to
marry in any one year. On every fes-
tive occasion they were driven into the
ghetto. On Sunday the gates were
locked regularly at O'clock, and nc
one was allowed to pass by the guard
at the gate except when on an errand
with prescription to the drug store or
for the purpose Of mailing a letter.
