The mystery has been explained in

The Cloth OF Fail River.

Fall River easily leads all other COP

cotton spindles in the United States,
and more than twice as many as any
other industrial center in America. It
makes S43,o00,000 yards of cloth an
nually. Every working day its mills
weave more than $500 miles of cloth,
If all the mills could be run on one
piece of cloth the fastest express
train could not travel fast enough to
carry off the piece as it is woven,

In some of the Swiss valleys the In
habitants are all afflicted with goitre
or ''thick sck." Instead of regard
ing this as deformity they seem to
think it natural feature of physical
development, and tourists passing
through the valleys are sometimes jeer-
ed by the goitrous inhabitants, because
they are without this offensive swell
ing. Thus form of disease may be.
come so common that it is regarded as
natural and necessary condition of
life. 1t is so, to a large extent, with
what are called disense of women.
Every woman suffers more or less from
irregularity, liberation. debilitating
drains, or female weakness, and this
suffering is SO common and so univer-
sal that many women accept it as a
condition natural and necessary to
their sex. But it is a condition as un.
natural as it is unnecessary. The use

A Statue to Capt. Smith,

At meeting of the Association for
the Preservation of Virginia Antiqui-
ties, held in the city of Richmond, Va,
January, 1901, it was resolved that the
Association should take steps to erect
at Jam mestown, Va. a statue to Captain
John Smith.
The year 1907 will mark the compile.
tion of the third century since Captain
Smith and his associates made the first
settlement at jamestown, from which
has grown the United States of Amer
lea. That year will be a fitting one to
commemorate the services rendered
by the man who, above all his fellows,
distinguished himself in guiding the
infant colony through the terrible
trials and perils of its first years and
saved it from the fate which obliterat-
ed the settlement on Roanoke Island.
The name of Captain John Smith is
indissolubly linked with the history
not only of jamestown and of Virgin
ia, but of that Of the whole United
States, and he is by common consent
acknowledged to have been the pre-
server of this early settlement. 1t is
needless to recite his achievements or
the marvellous good which resulted
from bis Judgment, courage and pres
ence of mind' in the crises through
which the first settlers in Virginia had
to pass, but all who know the history
of the State believe that he deserves a
lasting memorial.
The Association thinks this memorial
should be in the form of a bronze statue
of heroic size, and that 1t should be
placed conspicuously on the site where
the services were chiefly rendered.
The aid of all who revere the hero
ism of Captain Smith and who now
enjoy the benefits of the foundation of
English civilization and liberty on
this continent is solicited in this un-
dertaking.
Contributions may be sent to
