The DUTY OF MOTHERS.

What suffering frequently results
from a mothers ignorance or moro
frequently from q mothers neglect TO
properly instruct her daughter
Tradition says woman must suf-
fer" and young women are so taught.
There is little truth and a great deal
of exaggeration in this. If young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment, and her mother should see
that she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate 10 take their
daughters TO a physician for examina-
ton but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure
the most efficient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address is
Lynn, Mass.

Mrs. August Pfalzgraf, of South
Byron, Wis, mother of the young lady
whose portrait we here publish, wrote
Mrs Pinkham in January. 1899. saying
her daughter had suffered for two
years with irregular menstruation -
had headache all the time. and pain in
her side, feet swell, and was generally
miserable. Mrs. Pinkham promptly
replied with advice. and under date of
March, 1899. the mother writes again
that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound cured her daughter OF al
pains and irregularity.
Nothing in the world equals Mrs
Pinkham's great medicine for regu-
lating woman's peculiar monthly
troubles.

Ouashing Precedence.

An alleged recent contention be-
tween Mrs Miles and Mrs. Dewey for
precedence at official functions In
Washington, ID. c., recalls the follow
ing: Once upon a time there was a
western senator whose wife thought
very lightly on these subjects. Being
in Washington for a good time, she
resolved TO have it without bothering
about precedence. She gave a dinner
on one occasion, and when it was time
TO get her guests from the drawing
room INTO the dining room she said:
There's some precedence about all
this, but | don't know what it is. Just
shoe out to dinner. every one OF you,

ENGLAND'S SEALS.
Much Formally Accompanies Sealing
Documents in British Empire.

documents In British Empire.
The great seal of England, the spe-
cifc emblem of sovereignty, is append
ed only TO the most important class OF
public documents, such as writs for
summoning parliament, treaties and
official acts of state. A new one ia
made for each new sovereign Tor on
occasion OF a change of arms or style)
the old one being solemnly broken.
The lord chancellor is the custodian OF
the great seal. The priyy seal is the
seal appended TO grants which are aft
erwardS to pass the great seal, and to
documents OF minor Importance which
do not require the great seal. The Off
Ger who has the custody of the privy
seal was at one time called the keeper.
but is now known as the lord privy
seal. Under the Norman mOnarchs OF
England sealing became a legal for
mallty necessary to the Authorization
of deed, and from the thirteenth cen
fury EDWARDS the seals of all persons
of noble or gentle birth represented
their armorial ensigns The seal was
generally appended to the document by
passing a strip of parchment or cord
through a slit in the lower edge, and
the ends being held together, the wax
was pressed or nodded round them a
short distance from the extremity, and
the matrix impressed on it. Occasion
ally the seal was not pendent, but the
wax was spread on the deed. The col
ored wax with the impression was
sometimes imbedded il mass of white
wax, forming protective border to it.
In England a seal is still an essential
TO all legal instruments by which real
estate is conveyed; but since subscrip-
ton has also become necessary the
practice of sealing has degenerated into
a mere formality. The custom was
gradually introduced of covering the
wax with white paper, on which the
impression was made, and latterly wa
fers have been considered sufficient
substitute for seals. OF course this
does not apply to the great and privy
seals, mentioned above, which are still
attached TO all state documents.

Then the body was put into a clump of

In this way the whole 13 that | spoke

roadway He was accompanied by some
of his staff, making up a Incorporating
cavalcade. The party seemed excited by
the days ride or by the grand, inspiring
sight that during the day they had wit
messed, of Hooker's army in motion. They
were talking rapidly, exchanging views,
possibly as to what the near flu
ture had in store for them and for the
army. They were beSpattered by the dirt
and mud that their rapid ride lad show
cred upon them; but this in our eyes
rather added than dctractel from their
appearance, as we knew full well that
they were not out for review or a holiday
excursion. as grim-visaged war had
brought his wrinkled brow TO view, and
the ways and looks of the warrior, rather
than that of the trim soldier, was what
the occasion and expectations called for.
AS that party rode up there was cram
ing of necks by officers and soldiers of
different commands to get another look

the kind. Yet | noticed he thinks our

about right in the morning about our
army, but little off on his rebel army
in the afternoon. Both We're decidedly
paniCky at times.
The operations of Early that day at Ce-
dar Greek remind me of the story Of the
lrishman and the bull. The Irishman
had to laugh to see the bull squirm while
he was tickling his nose. But afterwards
thought it a good thing he had done so
first, as he was not in a condition to laugh
when the bull was through with him. So

order any soldier to take such risk. Their
answer was that they were all ready and
willing TO go, as they could not quietly
listen any longer TO their cries for help.
| then said Go
The party stripped themselves of their
accoutrements, laid aside their arms, and
sprang over our feldworks and moved off
in plain sight of both lines, moving in that
open space toward the enemy, and that
place where lay those wounded men. For
awhile bullets flew from both sides about
that party, but they kept steadily upon
their way upon that errand of mercy;
gradually the firing across that open space
grew less and less, caused. perhaps, by
the curiosity of those men firing, as else
where, than by the men of the 66th. The
purpose of that party then out between
the lines was not known, and the won
der by others was where were they going;
what We're they going to do! This per
haps caused that firing to slacken, and on
that party went until they reached those
helpless ConfederatcS, when, two of them
taking n wounded Confederate between
them, they turned and started for our
lines.
At the sight of this the object of their
mission was made known and the firing
across that space and between those lines
ut that point ceased as clfectually as if Il
commander obeyed by all had given the
order If not an order it was Il compl-
ance to a sentiment observed by each
alike; that sentiment was the still, small
voice pleading for humanity, which had
stripped the modern battlefield of great
deal Of its old-timc barbarity.
The wounded enemy thus brought in
| were taken back to our field hospital for
attention and treatment; and after this
party had got within our works the firing
by both lines across that open space be
gan again.
Since the close of the war the members
of the 66th who thus brought in those
wounded COnfederatcs have, by act of the
War Department, been granted what
every soldier covets, a Medal of Honor,
which Congress has conferred upon its
soldiers who specially distinguish them
selves in the face of the enemy or upon
the field of battle. That reward was not
what prompted those men to rescue those
wounded Confederates; but years after
wards it was a great satisfaction to them
TO receive that recognition of their cOur-
age and humanity.
The wounded Confederates were mem
bers of a North Carolina regiment, and
confirmed the information we already pos
icSscd that their forces were moving to-
ward our right. That information was
again sent to headquarters, and ought to
have reached our right and have placed
it upon its guard.

At or about this time Gen. Sickles made
armed reconnaissance out beyond our

Corps, and struck some moving column

lines without having obtained any definite
information as to what the enemy were
doing or where they We're going.

got pretty severe handling at the hands

neck and partially paralyzed and entirely
helpless.
