Mrs. Pinl<ham in January, 1890, saying
her daughter had suffered for two
years with irregular menstruation -
had headache all the time. and pain in

miserable. Mrs. Pinlsham promptly
replied with advice, and under date of

that Lydia T.. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound cured her daughter of all
pains and irregularity.
Nothing in the world equals Mrs.

I,sxt.s Kindness Exsmplihed.

A young composer, being desirous OF
having his composition criticised by
Liszt called on the master by the ad-
vice of his friends. So as not to in
terfere with LISTS time he made his
visit at 7:s0 a. M, and explained his
errand to the old servant, who re-
marked that 1t was rather early. List
overheard the colloquy from the head
of the stairs, and demanded of the ser
want who was there. Hearing that the
caller was a poor artist, the great mu-
sician ran downstairs to the gate in
his shirt sleeves, called the visitor
hack, took him up to the piano, played
off his composition, criticised it. and
sent him away feeling like master
in counterpoint.

An electric mail coach, which will
seat eighteen persons, has produced
very favorable impression in auto
mobile circles in Germany. On fair
roads 1t can run with one charge over
forty-seven miles, at a speed of nine
miles an hour, or over thirty-seven
miles at speed of sixteen to nine
teen miles. The battery has> eighty
cells, and weighs 5000 pounds. The
coach, with battery, weighs 13,2OO
pounds. 1t is driven by twenty-seven

kneellng IN prayer there was tap on

window. and there was a raven that
the family had fed and trained, and 1t
had in its bill a ring all set with pre-
be a ring belonging to the royal fam
lily. 1t was taken up to the kings
residence, and for the honesty Of the
man in bringing it back he had a
house given to him and garden and
farm. Who was it that sent the
raven tapping on the window? The

in the hour of extremity!
A Grander Wedding.
The wedding scene is gone now The
wedding ring has been lost, the tank
ards have been broken, the house is
down, but Jesus invites us to grand
er wedding. You know the Bible says
that the church is the Lambs wife,
and the Lord will after awhile come
to fetch her home. There will be
cleaning of torches in the sky, and
the trumpets of God will ravish the
air with their music, and Jesus will
stretch out his hand, and the church,
robed in white, will put aside her veil
and look up into the face of her Lord
the King and the Bridegroom will say
to the bride: Thou hast been faith
full through all these years! The man
sion is ready! Come home! Thou
art fair, my love-" And then he will
put upon her brow the crown Of do
minion, and the table will be spread,
and it will reach across the skies, and
the mighty ones of heaven will come
in, garlanded with beauty and striking
their cymbals, and the Bridegroom
and bride will stand at the head Of
the table, and the banqueters, looking
up, will wonder and admire and say:
That is Jesus. the Bridegroom! But
the scar on his brow is covered with
the coronet, and the stab in his side
is covered with a robe!" And That
is the bride! The weariness Of her
earthly woe lost in the flush of this
wedding triumph"
There will be wine enough at that
wedding; not coming up from the poi
soned watts of earth, but the vineyards
Of God will press their ripest clusters
and the cups and the tankards will
blush to the brim with the heavenly
vintage, and then all the banqueters
will drink standing. Esther, having
come up from the bacchanalian rev.
elry Of Ahasuerus, where thousand
lords feasted, will be there. And the
queen of Sheba, from the banquet OF
Solomon, will be there. And the
mother Of Jesus. from the wedding in
Cana, will be there. And they all will
agree that the earthly feasting was
poor compared with that. Then, lift
Ing their chalices in that light, they
shall cry to the Lord of the feast
Thou hast kept the good wine until
now"

the people on the premises under the
direction of the sub-inspector, and he
should report to his inspector only
those which he has been unable to rem
edy by personal attention and EFFORT.
The inspector will then work with MN
and If the combined efforts fail to rem
edy the nuisance it will then be report
ed to the Central Committee for action.
8. Persons Not Seen.-This also de-
mands judgment and strict action on
the part of the inspector.
1t will take little time to convince
people that they must be present at the
daily inspection, but the Central Com
mittee will send policemen If possible
to locate absentees and to convince the
people that they save trouble and con-
f1ict with the authorities by being on
hand at your hours of inspection. Wig
orous action should be taken until the
inhabitants realize this. Any laxness
in this respect will render useless the
| entire work of the Citizens Sanitary
Committee.
Sub-inspectors should trace the alb
sentee, if possible; if not, report him
to the inspector and if the combined eff
forts of the inspector and sub-inspectoi
fail to locate him the case will be re-
ported to the Central Committee, who
will have force ready to execute its
orders.
| Each sub-inspector should cut Out
these Instructions and paste them or
the inside cover of his book.

At the time of taking the census you
should inform the inhabitants that you
intend to inspect the premises twice a
day, giving them the exact hour in the
morning and late afternoon in which
you will make your rounds and requir-
ing them to be present on both occa-
Sions.
Many will undoubtedly answer that
while they live in your apana, and are
therefore properly in your census, yet
their business calls them to another
part of the city at one or both of the
hours that you have appointed for your
inspection. Such a man should be en-
tered at once upon the habitual absen-
tee blank, which shows his place of
work. These blanks will be given to
your Inspector, who will forward them
to the committee, and the committee
. will see that the man Is checked off at
the time you indicate by the inspector
of the district in which he claims to
work.
Your routine work now commences.
Your chief duty is to see and check off
on the list every man, woman and child
in your apana twice day, and to re-
port to your inspector ON "Sub-inspect-
ors' semi-daily report blank" which
will be furnished you by your inspect
or.
This blank has three chief divisions:
1. Persons sick.
2. Insanitary conditions.
3. Persons not seen.
/. Persons sick.-Cases of sickness
demand the exercise of great deal of
judgment on the part of the sub-in-
spector If the case Is suspicious 1t
may often be his duty to stay on the
premises in order to prevent the per-
sons moving, and to telephone or send
a messenger to the Central Committee
for immediate action. Expense of such
messages will be paid by the Central
Committee.
In other cases 1t may be sufficient to
report the sickness to the inspector on
the daily blank.
The sub-inspectors should err on the
side of strictness, bearing in mind that
1t is all important to discover cases of
plague at their earliest inception.
2. Insanitary Conditions.-Insani-
tary conditions should be remedied by

In a case which occurred during the
cholera epidemic in 1895 the morning
inspection was omitted. A case which
developed early in the morning, and
which would have been found had in
spection then been made, was not found
until late in the afternoon, when the
patient was nearly dead, and soiled
clothes had been washed in an ada
cent stream.
In another instance the inspector
found a house shut up at his morning
visitation and received no answer upon
knocking. He went away. In the aft
ernoon it was found that there was
cholera patient in the house when the
inspector called in the morning, which
would have been discovered had the
/, inspector insisted upon an entrance in
the morning.
The committee and the forty sanitary
inspectors are giving their entire time
to this matter, and several hundred
sub-inspectors are giving a large por-
ton. many of them all their time to it.
The inspection of the city is no more
thorough or effectual than that made
by the most inefficient inspector.
One case of plague day will as eff
fectually lock up the city and kill bust
ness as twenty.
1t is of no use for 1919 inspectors to do
careful work if the 2OOth man, by neg
lect, is to allow the plague to get a
fresh hold.
1t is unfair to yourselves, unjust to
the committee and your fellow-inspect-
ors and criminal1y negligent of the
lives and property of the people OF this
city, for any one of you to agree to in
spect portion of the city and then fail
to do it, or do it in a negligent or care
less manner.
Neither is it sufficient for you to
simply go to each house and make gen.
eral inquiry as to health, and cursory
examination of the premises.
Call the roll of persons living in each
house; see each one of them, or have
them accounted for. If any are absent
follow them up.
Examine every room in every house
upon each visitation. If this is done
without fail no case can escape you.
