he destroys more harmful insect life in
proportion than he takes back in pay
for what grain he eats. While now
and then there may be cases of dis
graceful acts on bis part to others of
our most beautiful feathered creatures,
he has always behaved himself in my
presence.
At this writing he is living in peace
with the catbird, robin, brown thrush,

around my premises. The little chap

FRIENDSHIP OF SPAaROWs.
Tells Of the Good They Do to Their Human
Slanderers.
Forest and Stream.


l see in magazines and papers so
many articles denouncing the sparrow
that l feel it my duty to tell of my
50 years OF close companionship with
this little chap. While I read the
accounts of his alleged murders and
depredations on other birds, l have
yet to see any such disgraceful acts on
his part.
My experience with him has proved
to me that he is the farmers best
friend. He is the first little fellow in
the spring to pounce on and destroy
all the caterpillars and insects that
are destructive to the farmers crops,
and he keeps pegging away at these
vermin until the grain is ripe. Then
the crops are so far advanced that
they are safe. All he then asks in re-
turn for the benefit has been to the
farmer is little grain to carry him
through the fall and winter.
So few know the reason for the
introduction of the English sparrow
to this part OF the world that 1 wish
to give it. Many years ago the streets
OF New York were lined with beauti-
full trees. In the spring, as soon as
they began to put on their summer
foliage, they were attacked by an ugly
looking green worm called the inch
worm. These would devour all the
leaves, leaving the tree perfectly bare,
and then hang from the trees in mil
lions by silken thread. They be-
come such an intolerable nuisance
that a great many people had the
trees cut down to get rid of them.
After introduction of the sparrow this
nuisance ceased to exist. He did his
work bravely and we'll. This certainly
is a proof OF the benefit he is to the

One OF the most common statements
made in the letters grateful women
write to DIR. Pierce, of Baffalo, N. ",
is this: III owe my life to DR.. Pierce"
These women have found themselves in
great danger. They have appealed
without avail to local physicians. They
have counseled in vain with women
advisers. The best that had been done
for them was just to keep them afloat in
the sea of disease with strength visibly
failing, in the hope that the man who
had strength and skill to save them
might be found.
wOMAN'S APPEAL. ANSWERED.
Hundreds of thousands of women
have appealed to DIR. Pierce, for relief
from womanly ills and not one has APP
pealed in vain. The use of DIR. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription supplemented by
the medical advice of DIR. Pierce has
been the means of cure to this vast army
of women suffering from diseases pecul-
lar to the sex.
III wish to tell you the benefit re-
ceived from using your remedies"
writes Mrs. Alice Soncrant. of 26r w.
Harrison Street, Chicago, Ills. 1.-TWO
years ago l was taken with a severe pain
in the left ovary and side. Tried several
different remedies, but nothing helped
me. 1 got so bad could scarcely walk
across the floor or do work of any kind.
One day an old neighbor lady came in
to see me, and told ME to try DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription. She
said she knew it would help me, as it
had saved her life. When the doctors
had given her up and said they could
do nothing for her she said she began to
take DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
and it cured her. So I got bottle of
the Favorite Prescription and one of
Golden Medical Discovery and began
taking them. Before l had taken one
bottle Of each I was so much better I
could do all my own work, and that is a
good deal, as I am the mother of four
email children. Three bottles of the
sFavorite Prescription and one Of
Golden Medical Discovery cured me.
I have not been sick since then. think

A Man TO the Rescue !
The Woman i'm Peril Rarely Finds
Help From Her Own Sex.

1t is III no wise to woinan's discredit
that she is not professional life-saver.
We can only fancy her in the firemans
helmet, in the crew of the life-boat, or
welding a policeman club, at the loss
ri some of that fneness which is tie
distinguishing quality of her sex. The
Molly Pitchers and Grace Darlings are
only examples of the sublime self-for-
getfulness of women IN great ener-
gencies.

Judgment of men in the crises of life.

mum by the practical ex-
perience of DR.. Pierce. OF
the hundreds Of thousands
of women who have ap-
pealed to DIR. Pierce for
counsel in connection with
his "Favorite Prescrip-
tion," only two in every
hundred have failed of a
perfect and permanent
cure. But even this two
per cent. of incurables
have gratefully recorded a
great improvement in their
condition; relief from pain
and a restoration to family
enjoyments.
No sick woman should
be discouraged by her con-
dition, no matter how long
standing her ailrlent NAV
be, or how utterly all other
means and medicines have
failed to cure. The great
er number of cures effect
ed by "Favorite Prescrip-
ton" are cures of chronic
and complicated diseases
which have baff1ed the
skill of local physicians
and proved intractable to

WHEN sewing ON buttons with holes
through them lay pin over the but
ton so that the thread with which you
are sewing will take in the pin. After
passing the thread through the button
as often A. necessary, pull out the pin
and wrap the thread around and
around between the button and the
cloth; this will form a neck for the
button, making it at once easier to
fasten and stronger. Old-fashioned
women tell you to sew ON buttons by
tho rule of three, three times through,
three times around and three stitches
to fasten off.
When picture-frame that is gilded
has been defaced by insects the spots
may be removed by applying a soft
camei's- hair brush that has been
dipped in alcohol. A soft sponge
moistened with alcohol will remove
dust and the soiling which is caused
by humid weather following dusty
season. The sponge must not be too
wet and must be lightly used. Dulled
gliding should first be very carefully
busted, then cleansed with chamois
dipped in not too strong wood lye, and
lastly dried quickly and thoroughly
with piece of linen. This method
may be relied on. If bits OF the stuc-
co have peeled off and cannot be re-
placed, the spots will become scarcely
noticeable if retouched with gold
paint.

Cleaning Glassware.

Every housekseper admires pretty
glassware and likes to have her dining
table supplied with it. If the condi-
ton of the purse does not justify her
in the purchase of cut glass, she will
find many excellent limitations in the
common ware at very reasonable
prices, that will answer all practical
purposes just as we'll. After using
them for some time, the dust and
grease will accumulate in the delicate
tracings and projections, and ordinary
washing does not entirely remove it.
Hence it is necessary to give every ar
ticle thorough cleaning and polish
ing once week. Fill pan half full
Of water that it is as hot as you can
bear your hands in comfortably, and
dissolve enough Golddust washing
powder in it to make a strong suds.
Put the glassware in it and scrub
thoroughly with small brush. An
old tooth brush that has been discard.
ed for toilet purposes will do. Rinse
in clean, warm water, and wipe dry
with a soft cloth that will leave NO
lint. This treatment will make com
mon glass shine and sparkle like the
most expensive kind.
