pointed to inquire into the expenses
incurred by officers in the British
army, and to suggest measures OF
Observation-Disclosures within the reach
of men of moderate means, has Just
been issued in blue book.
The report is interesting rs an Of
fetal showing on the heavy tax on
the private incomes of officers in all
branches of the service. II shows
that the average and legitimate extra
expenses of officers i'm the infantry
exceeded their pay by $500 TO $3.50
annually while cavalry officers cx-
penscs are in excess Of their pay by
$4,000 to $4,000 annually. The com

FOR WOMEN
WHO CANNOT BE CURED.

Backed up by over third of a century
Of remarkable and uniform cures a record
such as no other remedy for the diseases
and weaknesses peculiar to women ever
attained, the proprietors and makers OF
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription now feel
legal money of the United States, for any
case of Ieucorrhea, Female Weakness,
Prolapsus or Falling of Womb which they
can not cure. All they ask is fair and
reasonable trial of their means OF cure. =.
Their financial responsibility is well
known to every newspaper publisher ana
druggist in the United States. with most
of whom they have done business for over
third of century. From this fact 1t will
readily be seen how utterly foolish it would
be for them to make the above unprece-
dented and remarkable offer if they were
not basing their offer on curative means
having an unparalleled record. No other
medicine than DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription could possibly twin out" as the
saying goes, on such proposition. But
they know whereof they speak. They have
the most remarkable record of cures made
by this world famed remedy ever placed to
the credit of any preparation especially
designed for the cure of woman's peculiar
ailments. This wonderful remedy, there
fore, stands absolutely alone as the only
one possessed of such remarkable curative
properties as would "'..iant us makers III

AUTOS PRE-EMPT HYDE PARK.
LOndOn's Famous Gathering Place
for the Smart Set Now Racing
Ground for Motors.

Nothing is more expressive Of the
dullness of London just now than the
few people to be seen in Hyde Park, the
decadence of which as a resort for the
smart world continues more and more
evident. 1t is not altogether due to
the intrusion of masses among the
classes, but to the tendency of late to
use the park as a racing ground for
automobiles.
This practice is so much INDUCED in
now that timid horsewomen are afraid
to venture into the park for quiet
canter lest their horses might be
scared by some whirring, painting mon
ster dashing past This offense is
mostly committed by builders.
The automobile paper called Car
condemns the practice, and urges Of
tenders for the credit of automoblism
generally to try to be considerate; 9th
erwise the authorities may be con-
strained to cancel the privileges now
possessed Of using the royal park.
1t is amusing to note the supreme
contempt with which smartly liveried,
clean-shaven coachmen and footme q
look down upon the grimy, dusty, Cog
gle-eyed chauffeur as he rushcs past.
An old coachman well voiced the gen
eral opinion of the stables when he
said: Automobiles haven't n right to
come into the park, dirty and mucky,
Ike they do. Asfor the chaps that drive
them, they ought not to be permitted
to come into the park unless they are
dressed neat"
An old colonel who moved in the
smartest circles for many years ex-
pressed quite the same opinion as the
coachman. He agreed that the tend
ency was for the park to grow shabby
since bicycles and automobiles are al
lowed. There is n want of smartness
which utterly spoils it as n spectacle.
There is not so much objection to au-
tomobiles, but there is much obiec-
ton to the way they come. They ought
to have some respect for the traditions
of Hyde park.
An automobile was approaching as
he spoke, covered with dust and muddy
beneath, with the driver all greasy
and dusty. Beside him sat the owner
in a dusty bowler hat and dusty coat,
with collar turned up.
"There's another" said the old
colonel. That's Lord Blank driving
There's no excuse for him bringing an
untidy car into the park"

railroads running east and west, says
Leslie's Weekly. Most of the rural
routes run north and south, and
each covers Approximately so miles

close to the Oklahoma line, where
ONLY q few years ago it was a cattle
range, are the white wagons. From
the little town Of Caldwell go seven
wagons, serving 700 families. Out on
the ranches, where the cowboys arc
