MISS KENNEDYSCASE
WHY snE LEFT HER STUDIES At THE
Mon SCHOOL.
Every Mother Of a Growing Girl
Will be Interested In the Story as
Toll by the Young Lady
-'fe Herself,

The circumstances under which Ber-
tina Kennedy was taken from her
studies in the high school will be OF
interest to all mothers and growing
girls, Miss Kennedy said to a reporter:
When was fourteen years old I
began to decline In health on account
OF "a suppression OF the natural func-
tions of my sex, and am sure would
never have been the healthy girl I
am now If 1t had not been for Dr.
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People.
l was certainly without color, thin
as a rail, nervous and irritable. tired
and lifeless and in a seriously low
state of health in general. Although
good doctor was treating me, he
failed to do any good and my parents
felt very much alarmed about me-
II was taken from the high school
on account of my poor health, but
continued to grow worse. Then I be-
gan to take DR.. Williams Pink Pills,
and with the first doses began to feel
better. Four boxes brought about
the desired result and a few boxes
more restored me entirely to health.
Now I have good color, am strong
and active and have not seen sick
day from. that time to the present"
Miss Kennedy lives, at Canton juno
tion, Mass, and both she and her
mother are willing to verify the above
statement.
No discovery of modern times has
proved such a blessing to women 40

pie. Acting directly on the blood and
nerves, invigorating the body, ,regulat-
ing the functions, they restore the
strength and health in the exhausted

FARMERS
Should Not Hesitate TO Enter
Politics.

lansing, Mich, Nov. 22.-The Ma
tonAl Grunge renewed It's recognition
Of woman's equality by adopting the
report Of Its committee on good of the
order, which declared that every posi-.
ble thing should be done ito put wo-
man in possession of all those political
rights and property interests that the
spirit of modern civilization demands"
The duty of the grange was declared
to impress upon the farmer that he ia
an American citizen with political du.
ties to perform and that the man who
neglects them ''because politics are too
dirty for him is Just as much Grim.
inal as the man who neglects to drain
cesspool that threatens his family be,

The Resolutions committee of the Ma

many whereases of its report that any
farmer who declines to take part in pol

man who suffers nuisance to exist

proceeded to vote down proposition
for direct legislation, the only effect

evils Of which they complain. The
farmer must be truly prosperous when
he can afford the luxury of such an in

A NEW COIN PROPOSED.

Representative Amos J. Cummings of
New York has introduced into the
House a bill to authorize the coinage
of 21h-cent copper coins. 1t is argued
that the proposed new coin is not only
logically called for by our decimal sys-
tenn, to bear the relation to the dime
that the twenty-five cent piece does to
the dollar, but there is large and
growing demand for ii in various
classes of business.
Years ago the government coined
half-cent piece. but the coinage was
discontinued in 1857. 1t also coined
two-cent and three-cent pieces, but
these also have been discontinued. and
there is now nothing between the cent
and the nickel. There are many
articles of daily household use that
sell two for a nickel, two for fifteen
cents. two for a quarter. and so on.
Under the present system if only one
of these articles is needed the pur
chaser is required to pay three cents,
eight cents. thirteen cents, etc. The
odd half-cent always falls upon the
purchaser. The railroad fare across
the Brooklyn bridge is two trips for
five cents, but the single trip is three
cents. When it is considered that ap-
proximately 100000 passengers use
the bridge cars every year it can be
seen that the new coin would find large
use in New York city alone and save
large sums to the people. But the
bridge is not the only place the coins
would be used. They would find en-
ployment on the ferries, in the depart
ment stores and elsewhere.
In a number of cities the street rail-
ways have made concessions of half
fare for school children and working
men during certain hours of the day:
but when the fare is split it becomes
three cents for a single ride, or So for
100 rides. instead of $3.50, and the extra
half-dC ar goes to the corporation.
This movement for half-fares for
school children seems destined to
spread pretty well over the country,
since in some fifteen or twenty of the
larger cities the half-rates are now In
force while in others there is agitation
in favor of them.

A Spurious Mr.. Depew.

A big, broad-houldered, good looking
man walked into a Park Row clothing
store on Saturday and purchased a
pair of trousers for 81, says the New
York Sun. Then he took the boss out
and treated him in nearby saloon.
In the saloon he introduced the boss
tailor to man who waved a roll of
bills and ordered many drinks. Then
ne got the tailor and his friend into a
heated argument
The tailor believed the third man
was Chauncey NJ. Depew. The spu-
rious Mr.. Depew had white hair and
white flowing whiskers.
Now, Chauncey," said the man
who bought the four dollar trousers,
they tell me the BARRIERS are doing a
good business among the New York
Central employees"
''Oh, yes replied the man addressed
as Chauneey. did you hear about it?''
Il didn't heard aboudt it," remark
ed the tailor. TELL it to me- Der bar
bers are doing business plenty on der
New York Central employees?"
Yes" said Chauncey. they are
shaving all of the engineers"
For vhy?" asked the tailor
Because the engineer who cuased
the tunnel accident was Wisker. Ha!
Hal A whisker.''
Dot is a drink on me-" said the
tailor. II read it in der paper dot you
make all der chokes for der t'eater
Come, What will We have?"
All drank whisky and the man who
| posed as MIR. Depew told few more
funny stories and then got into an ar
| gument. with his companion, whom he
addressed as Mr.. O'Brien. Finally the
! spurious Mr.. Depew bet O'Brien a suit
of clothes that he, O'Brien, had the
wrong end OF the discussion. O'Brier
took the bet
They left it to the tailor to decide
| He was to decide it with the aid of ar
| almanac. The almanac was secured
| and the tailor with O'Brien's aiC
found the facts to prove that O'Brier
won the wager.
All three then went back to the
| Park Row tailor shop and O'Brier
was measured for a s50-suit. The spu-
rious Mr.. Depew agreed to pay the
| bill and went away to have another
| drink. Then O'Brien made a deal with
| the tailor.
II only want S30-suit," he whisper
ed. That will give you a chance to
| make a few extra dollars. Make the
suit for $50, charge my friend Chaun-
cey $50 for 1t, and give men $40. That
will leave $40 extra for you. Come
wen have another drink"
Back to the saloon they went
O'Brien explained that he was a little
short and that the $40 would come In
handy to buy drinks, and while he was
getting it the bogus Mr.. Depew kept
manufacturing jokes.
On Monday morning the tailor woke
up. The saloon keeper called upon
him to inquire about a bank check
which had been left by the alleged Mr.
Depew and his friend.
The tailor glanced at the check. pro-
nounced it a forgery and then ex-
claimed:
Never mind: l got dem dead Ia
righdts, only got $40 out of me. but
when dey call for dot suit of clothes
I'll have dem arrested"
He is still wondering what causes
his friends to laugh when he repeats
the story.
