No other medicine has such a record of cures of female troubles

his store puposey to buy Lydia f. Pnkham's Vegetable Compound,
has no interest in your case. He is merely trying to sell you some
thing on which he can make a larger profit. He does not care
whether you get well or not, so long as he can make a little more
money out of your sickness. If he wished you well he would
without hesitation hand you the medicine you ask for, and which he
knows is the best woman's medicine in the world

WONDERFUL FEAT OF MEMORY

That memory can be trained to a re-

Pillsbury, the chess expert, recently
submitted was one of the most remark
able illustrations of mental capacity
ever witnessed. While at the North

Pennsylvania, not long ago, he had,
while blindfOlded, participated in a
team Of four whist and at the same
time contested in ten games of chess,
nine of which he won, the other hay

Orize thirty words, no matter how hard
they might be, the selections to be

Trelkeld Edwards of Bethlehem picked
out most of the following words: Anti

Pillsbury memorized these words and

have any difficulty in repeating them

The Story Of the Marquis.

y course, Marquis, you met many
e1citements in your travels over the
world?' asked the distinguished law
yer, who sat near.
The marquis recognized the familiar
moment. His time had come. AS a
social lion of experience in both hem
ispheres he always knew just when
he was expected to roar.
He had reached New York after a
dash into the Hudson Bay country and
ne had brought a few letters from
Canadian friends and officials. One
of them was to Marcus Cornovon, and
Mrs. Cornovon was delighted, for she
was n Of the most insistent and ir-
repressible lion hunters of the times.
Hence the dinner-a small affair for
only a dozen, but a dinner served as
for a king, instead Of a common, ordi-
nary marquis, whose work and fame
consisted in travelling to the remote
places Of the earth.
The house was a modern palace and
Mrs. Cornovon reigned in it as gra-
ciously as a queen and more success
fully, because she had a fine demo-
cratic spirit and a lively appreciation
of the humor of things. She courted
famous people because she wanted the
best that was going and the reputation
Of getting it to her table. And the
husband laughed at it all and enjoyed
everything but stupidity.
The marquis was not stupid. He
was a small person but his manner
was lively and his conversation had
a sparkle of its own. 1t was a con-
slant conquest of an impeachment in
speech-a sort Of mountain brook
tumbling down over the rocks, but
always going along at a lively pace.
And so he began. That is the Curl
GUS thing about travel" he replied.
I'VE seek the excitements and we al
most always fail to meet them. had
more of a real, genuine thrill lodging
a trolley car today than met with
in two months of journeying in the
wilds Of North America. Indeed. a
wolf is a long-lost friend compared
with a city hackman and between a
grizzly and a Tammnay policeman,
give me the bear every time"
There was a merry laugh as a com
plement and encouragement to the
distinguished guest, and he went on.
4 have been wandering over the
earth now for about twenty years and

and what has impressed me the most

Under the leadership of Chief Isaac
Quigno, the Pottawatomies will sail
from st. Joseph on the evening of June
% to fulfill their threat of squatting on
the most picturesque piece of land in
the city of Chicago. Because he was
lukewarm TO the proposed invasion,
Chief Pokagon, the direct descendant
of the first known ruler of the Potta-
watomies, was on the eth deposed by
the tribe, and the younger and more
enthusiastic buck elected to his place on
the Indian throne Pokagon's council
of seven, which is the ruling legisla-
tive body of the Pottawatomies, was
also deposed, the following leaders in
the invasion movement being elected
to succeed them: Frank Williams,
Frank Sawalk, J. II. Cushway, Stephen
Topash, Joseph Motay, Charles Motay
and Andrew Rapp. Immediately after
their election, Chief Quigno and the
new council of seven went into secret
session at Hartford. The session lasted
for several hours. When it was over
messengers were dispatched to the va
rious Indian settlements to notify the
warriors of the proposed advance on
Chicago, June %. The pow-wow at
which Pokagon was ousted from the
seat of his fathers was held in the viii
lage of Hartford on the 18th. 1t was
called to hear the report of the scouts
sent to Chicago recently to confer with
Capt. Streeter and the police.
