Mr.. Gladstone.s Courtesy.

The following little story illustrative
Of Mr.. Gladstone's courtesy, is fresh to
us. 1t comes to us from an old resident
of Llanfairfechan. The incident oc-
Cured at Penmenmawr, in the summer
of 1890. About 1000 feet up the noun
tain is small farmstead, Pen Penmaen,
at which resided woman over 70
years old, who brought her weekly
stock of provisions in a large basket
up the steep ascent from Llanfairfec-
han village. One hot Saturday, soon
after beginning her upward climb, she
sat down to rest. Mr.. Gladstone, seeing
her, entered into conversation. She
chatted freely, and detailed the con.
tents of her basket. He lifted it, and,
finding it heavy, offered to carry it for
her.
The offer was accepted, and the vet
eran statesman bore the basket load to
the white washed farm cottage, near
the summit A party of tourists ap-
preaching from the Druid's Circle path
respectfully saluted Mr.. Gladstone,
who, having set the heavy load down at
the old woman's door, strobe vigorously
across the mountain path 10 renmaen-

Gladstone who carried your basket for
you?" inquired one Of the party. mo,

A Golf Outrage.

The Earl Of Wemyss was on a Fife
golf course not long ago, accompanied
by an old caddie. His lordship got
his ball on one occasion so near the
hole that to play it was, as 1t appeared
to him, superfuous. So he simply tip.
ped it in with the toe Of his boot.
The caddie revolted instanter, threw
down the clubs and looked Mortified.

Facts
for,
Women

Any article, whatever its merit
must be made known to the public by
means of advertising. Advertising,
however, though it can do much for
thing, cannot do everything. It may
create sale for time, but in order
10 insure a lasting demand the thing
advertised must have solid worth.
This is the case with Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound. 1t has
solid worth
Women everywhere have learned
this fact, and the result is that there
Is a lasting and absolutely unequaled
demand for it. It has the largest sale
of any remedy for female ills in the
world, and this has been the case for
years.
The reason for this is that Mrs.
Pinkham claims nothing that she is
not entitled to claim. She can do all
that she says she can do, and her
twenty years of experience make her
advice Invaluable. Herexperience has
been not only long but worldwide,
and she has helped more women back
to health than any one else in the
world. These facts should, and do,
have immense weight with all sensible
women. Remember these are not wild
statements but solid facts.

You ask me whether the present i'd

In the affections of the people to permit
Its possible violations by the ndmin!s-

were made. the supreme court OF the
United States will surely Interpret the

Republican party and Us IL rule have
found Its leaders TO be opportunlsts
and not statesmen. Nevertheless. In
the present crisis the Philadelphia plat
form is much more acceptable than the
platform Of the Kansas City conven-
ton. 1t may be choice Of evils. but 1t
Is certainly a Lesser evil to continue the
government In the hands of the Repub-
lican party for the next four years than
to encounter the perils which would

two to four hours about an axis In
cllned some II or u degrees TO thu ecltp-
tic, and surrounded by stenm-chargcd
atmosphere OF great depth exertirg u
pressure Of 5000 pounds to the square

mosphere had important effect in The
forming Of the crust. At this time.
Professor, Weichert has lately told us,
molten iron. with a density OF 50, filled
the 'earth's center. and was surrounded
by an outer envelop about 400 miles
thick, consisting of sillcates, such as we
are familiar with In lgneous rocks ana
meteorites. with density of 80. In
great tidal wave at this critical period.
the moon was thrown Off, taking twaM-
ty-seven miles in depth OF this outer
envelope. The earth probably solldhed
soon after this tremendous convulson,
its temperature being reduced to about
ITO degrees G., but still preventing the
llquefying OF the atmosphere of steam.
With further cooling, the third critical
stage was reached. Steam was con-
densed, the pressure being so great that
condensation began at $40 degrees C,
water filled the hollows, and the oceans
were formed. Then the hot water, fresh
at first. acted chemically on the sill
Gates. becoming more and more charged
with various salts, and the stratlfed
rocks were deposited. From varying
data, biologists and mathematician
have sought to fix the dates OF certain
epochs In years. Professor G. H. Dnr-
wins minimum estimate Is that the
moon was thrown off 100000 OF years
ago; Lord Kelvin has placed the solidi-
flying OF the earth's crust at 20 900. 900 10
100000 millions Of years ago; Profess
sor j. Jolys maximum estimate Of the
time since the oceans condensed is So
100000 to 9O.ooo.0o0 OF years. These fig
urcs differ widely, yet not more so than
one should expect.
