brief re dence in order to be appointed
a naval cadet, his life at the academy,
his service in the war for the Union,
where he was wounded at the
storming OF Fort Fisher, his career
aboard ship in many waters, and his
final connection as commander Of the
Iowa in the Battle off Santiago Harbor
when the Spanish he was sunk. All
is related in a dramatic manner and
full OF thrilling interest and some witty
comment. Evans keeps the reader
moving and has the faculty of not

Triology of American Humor.

Eben Holden has been such national
success, it seems late and useless to COM
mend its many charms 1t is evidently
an attempt at fiction upon a background
Of orthodoxy, yet broad enough and put
in the mouth of it's quaint, honely and
humorous hero to make it acceptable
to vast scope OF people. Attempting
to pick out the proverbial utterauces
that give the book its racy flavor, proves
a failure, for its humor is an atmospher-
ic condition that seems to spread like a
rosy summer sunset over the entire Gre
alton. 1t is a quality, literary pe.-
spective, rather than gems and nuggets
Of expression that can be plucked from
their natural surroundings and placed
on exhibition. The little country or
phsn boy finds good home, falls in love
with a beautiful girl who becomes a
great singer, and he becomes great
editor-all these are stock qualities OF
American novels. Horace G-eely is
brought in, there are hunting stories,
patent-right stories and horse trade
stories as good as any in David Harum,
and for native American humor and
country wit it might be called off the
same piece with thai book and Quincy
Adams Sawyer perfect triology OF
clean, enjoyable literature that ought to
be together in every family library. OF
the three, the present volume has the
least strained and artificial ending. The

Mrs. August Pfalzgraf, of South
Byron, Wis, mother of the young lady
whose portrait we here publish, wrote
in January, 1899, saying her daughter
had suffered for two years with irTeg-
ular menstruation had headache all
the time, and pain in her side, feet
swelled, and was generally miserable.
She received an answer promptly with
advice, and under date of March, 1899,
the mother writes again that Lydia T..
Pinlxham's Vegetable Compound cured
her daughter of all pains and irregu-
larity.
Nothing in the world equals Lydia e.
Pinkham's great medicine for regu.
lating woman's peculiar monthly

Tradition says woman must suf-

There Is a little truth and a great deal
of exaggeration in this. II young

she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate TO take their
daughters to physician for examina-

herself to Mrs. Pinkham's Laboratory
at Lynn, Mass, and secure from a
woman the most efficient advice with
