BOUTELLE IS DYING.
Maine Congressman to Withdraw
From the Race.

New York, May 2.-Word has been
received by personal friends of Charles
A. Boutelle, representative from the
Fourth Maine district, that he is fail
ing so rapidly in health that unless
there is a quick change for the better
it will be cruel to permit him to be a
candidate for reelection next fall. His
physicians assert that he is in grave
danger Of death.
Mr.. BoutelIe has been. very i'll for
many months, and experts on neurology
have told his family he can never
again be himself. Despite his condi-
ton, he was renominated by acclama-
ton. The belief is now strong here that
his name will be withdrawn.

NEW York. T

Some Figures that Will Amaze By
Their Enormous Size.
In 1882 the storage capacity from Gro
ton dam (Croton lake and reservoir),
the natural ponds Of the system, and
the old reservoirs was 9,500,O0O 900 gal
Ions, Crotou lake holding in reserve
but half a billion of this.
Now four new reservoirs, Sodom and
Bob brook, Titicus, Carmel anG Anna
walk, bold for future needs at any hour
$1,000, 900, 900 gallons more. The stor-
age reservoir in Central Park mas In
reserve over a billion, and Bronx sys-
tenn reservoirs 3,500,00 1000 more
stored up, not against a rainy day, but
against a succession of dry ones.
The new Croton dam, the Cornell
dam, as it is officially called, will store
marvelously in addition. A stone wall
294 feet high closes one end of a mar
row valley. The water will come
against this and back up the valley,
submerging lowland after lowland into
one gigantic lake, ingulfng old Croton
lake, covering over the old dam.
All the rivers of the Croton system
will flow into it, and both the old and
the new aqueducts will be its outlets.
1t will "back water up among the
hills sixteen miles from its dam, wip-
Ing out the sites of three old villages,
and will increase the storage capacity
two-thirds, bringing it to 20, coo, OO0, 1000
gallons, adding itself 10000, 900, 600.
With these and these great
ly increased opportunities of storing up
a huge reserve of water against evil
times of drought, it may be an occasion
of surprise that the near future will
certainly need additions on a larger
scale than eve before.
The explanation Is to be found In a
few illuminative figures. The demands
Of New York for water have increased
beyond all anticipation and calculation.
In 1890 the city was using 100, 5000
a day; in the winter of 1S99-19OO it
used, according to official records, 1885,
100000 gallons. The hour when New
York will call for 800, 10000 O gallons a
day is near at hand; In fact, 1t Is said
it will be reached in a year or a little
more.-Munsey's.

HIS JUDGMENT WAS WRONG.
Hound that Tried to Whip All the
Dogs in the Neighborhood.

Hound hat Tried to Whip All the
Dogs in the Ne~ighborhood.
Sooner was a waif, or, more correct
ly speaking, a soldier of fortune. No
one knew his ~antecedents. He had
dragged himself into Hogarth's yard
one day, worn out and exhausted after
a long run on the trail of a buck. There,
was no telling how far he had come, as
a fast hound will owe many miles in
a day, and keep it up for two or three
days. But he had driven the buck into
the lake, and the Hogarth boys had
killed it; therefore they treated the dog
well, and as he liked the place he re-
NAMED and became one of the house
hold.
The time Sooner discovered he had
lighting blood in his veins marked an
epoch in his life. He overestimated his
ability, it is true, and suffered in con-
sequence. A new settler moved into
that part of the country and estab-
lished himself about six or seven miles
from Hogarth's. Regarding the size
Of his family, he was far behind Ho-
garth, but when it came to dogs it was
simply a walkaway. Several breeds
were represented in his collection, but
the "yaller dog predominated.
Sooner undertook to clean out the
entire crowd alone and unaided. 1t
was something of an undertaking, and
he spent six out of seven days In the
hospital while the war was on.
"He doesn't seem to be much of a
fighter" l remarked to Hogarth one
day when the subject was under dis
cussion.
ooh, he kin fight all right" Hogarth
replied; "it's his Judgment what's
wrong. Sooner's a fust-rate fighter,
but he's a dern poor jedge of dorgs."
He was game though, and stuck at
1t until he had conquered each one of
the new dogs in turn, with the excep-
ton of a huge brindle bulldog. With
this dog he employed strategy. He
bowed down before him and addressed
him with smooth words and made
friends with him, and then one day he
enticed him over to his own home, and
all the dogs there pitched on the brin-
die bull and half killed him. Sooner
became more blase than Eve after this
achievement. 1t so plainly showed his
superiority to all the rest Of dog crea-
ton.
This fighting trait was unusual in a
hound, for as a rule they are peace
ably inclined. 1t served to accentuate
the fact that Sooner was not like other

A Memory of School Days.

Sometimes a feller's mind goes on an es-
capade that's wild
And frisks back DER the years when he
was nothin' MORN a child:
The days when with his spellin' book
McGuffy drove one sick.
An White gave bitter doses in his third
part 'rithmetic.
When dusk and dew's a fallin' and the
work that filed the day
I'm restin' from, my memory jes' travels
back that way,
An fingers longest with a vision time
can ne'er destroy
The freckle-faced divinity l w~orshiped
when a boy.
Her face was pure, each feature stamped
with innocence. forsooth.
An yet t call her pretty would be
stretchin' of the truth:
Though l dreamed all night full often of
her cheeks, s%un-tanned and brown,
Her starched-stiff ping sunbonnet and
her ruffled Bingham gown.
The little girls Of these days never have
such pansy eyes,
An lips have lost the way t frame such
soft an sweet replies
AS those l heard when rambling with, In
happy-hearted JOY,
The freckled-faced divinity / w~orshiped
when a boy.
I plucked the first wild roses of the
spring for her to wear,
An helped to braid the blossoms of the
orchard in her hair;
l stood her knight an s~ervitor through
boyhood days the span
An held her in my heart until I'd grown
to be a man!
But here's a truce to memory, since lat.
the hour grows,
Upstairs to bed | softly steal, to dreams
and sweet repose,
An kiss my wife goodnight, she who has
been life's dearest joy,
The freckle-faced divinity / worshiped
as a boy.

Second Attacks of Typhoid Fever.
The idea is that, as one attack of ty-
phoid gives immunity from a second,
temporarily, If not lasting, immunity
might be acquired by incubation with
an a~ttenuated dose of the poison. But
one attack of typhoid does no give
immunity from a second, says DR.. T.
j. Maclagan in the British Medical
Journal. Second attacks OF typhoid
are as common as by the ordinary doc
trine Of chances, they ought to be;
more common, for instance, than Sec
ond attack of pneuomnia, in about the
same proportion that first attacks are
more m If one attack of the
fully developed disease does not give
immunity. he concludes, incubation
with an ~attenuated dose of the poison
can scarcely be expected to do so.

Wo,,san,s
Mistake

1t is a well-known fact that Lydia
=. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
has cured more women than any other
remedy. 1t therefore must be the
best possible medicine for female ills.
But some women make the mistake
OF thinking that they will try some
thing else, simply because it is new.
That mistake is often a fatal one
fatal to the health and happiness Of
the experimenter.
Is 1t not foolish to risk the possible
results of such experiments? Is it not
better to depend upon a medicine
which has been tried successfully for
thirty years, and which has never
been found wanting? Do not therefore
let any one persuade you to try some
thing which they say is just as good.
1t cannot be just as good. Mrs. Pink
hams Compound is the best, and there
can be only one best. This is not a
mere assertion, but is a positive fact,
admitted by hundreds of regular
physicians.
Rely on your own common sense,
and Mrs. Pinkham's lifelong expert
ence, and you will make no mistake.
Don't experiment with your health,
but take a medicine that you know is
good, and is backed by such letters as
these to Mrs. Pinkham:
