Mrs. Frances Stafford, Of A3 e.
Hath St., NY. City, adds her tes-
timony to the hundreds of thou.
sands on Mrs. Pinkham's files.
When Lydia E. Pinkham's Reme-
dies were first introduced skeptics
all over the country frowned upon
their curative claims, but as year
after year has rolled by and the
little group of women who had been
cured by the new discovery has
since grown into O vast army of
hundreds of thousands, doubts and
skepticisms have been swept away
as by mighty food, until to-day
the great good that Lydia Il.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
and her other medicines are doing
among the women of America is
attracting the attention of many of
our leading scientists, physicians
and thinking people.
Merit alone could win such fame I;
wise, therefore, is the woman who
for a cure relies upon Lydia e.

 "Ah-yi" exclaimed the Rev Jeremiah triumphantly.
 Docs you reely b'lieye, Brer Jerry, dat Pulaski Tomlin will ever try ter put you back in slavry?" asked Uncle Plato
 The inquiry was a poser, and the Rev Jeremiah was unable to make any satis factory reply. Perceiving this. MT Hotchkiss came to the rescue. You must bear in mind' he blandly remarked that this Is not a question of one per son here and another person there. It concerns a whole race. Should all the former slave owners of the south succeed In retaining their slaves, MT. Tomlin and MT Clopton would be compelled by public sentiment to reclaim theirs. If they refused to do so their former slaves would fall Into the hands of new masters. It is not a question of individuals at all"
 Well. suh, we'll fin out alter awhile dat we'll natter do like de white folks. Evey tub'll natter stan on its own bot tom. I'm des ez free now ez l wuz twenty year ago"
 T can well believe that after what you have said" MT. Hotchkiss interrupted.
 The tone of his voice was as smooth as velvet, but his words carried the string of an imputation, and Uncle Plato felt 1t and resented 1t. "Yes, suh-an' l wuz des ez free twenty year ago as yu all will ever be. My marster has been good ter me fum de word go. I ain't stayin wid i'm bekase he got money Eff him an Miss Sa'ar dina have a dollar in de worl an no way ter git 1t, I'd work my arms off fer m. An eff I fused ter do 1t, my wife d quit me, an my chillun wouldn't look at me. But IT tell you what I'll do; when my marster tu'ns his back on me I'll tu'n my back on him"
 I'm really sorry that you persist in making this question a personal one when it affects all the negroes now liv- ing and millions yet to be born" said MT. Hotchltlss.
 Well sub, les look at 1t dat away, Uncle Plato insisted. "Spozn you ban tergedder like dis, an try ter tun de white folks ag'in you, an dey see what you up ter, an tun der backs, den what you gwine ter do? You got ter live here an you got ter make yo' Twin here. Is you gwine ter cripple de COW dat gives de cream?"
 Uncle Plato paused and looked around He saw at once that he was in a hope less minority and so he reached for his hat. I'm mighty glad ter know you, suh.'' he said to MT. Hotchkiss. with q bow that Chesterfield might have envied but I'll natter bid you good night" With that. he went out followed by Wiley MIL lirons and WalthalFs Jake, much to the relief of the Rev.

 .aOh. shucksi Is that you Tiddy Me Tas?"-this was the way Gabriel some times twisted her name. T thought you as~e the booger-man. You'd better run along home to your Miss Nan. What are you hiding out here for anyway"
 we no hide, Misser Gable. 'Tis-a We house. dis Honey Nan no want we. She talkin' by dat Misser Frank what llve-a down dey at Clopton."
 Tasma rid told this whopper In spite of the fact that Nan was giving her warning nudges and pinches
 ..Yes reckon they are having a good time" said Gabriel gloomily. Miss Nan gave me an invitation, but couldn't go." 1t was something new in Mans experience to hear Gabriel call her Miss Nan.
 "Whaffer you ain't gone down dey7' inquired Tasma rid. You better go, Misser Gable; go by dat place dey Honey Nan live an look in de blin' wey you see dat Misser Frank and dat Misser Paul Tomlln an watch um how dee kin make love. Maybe you kin fin out how fer make love yousef."
 Gabriel laughted uneasily. "No, Tiddy Me Tas-no love-making for me. I'm either too old or too young, l forget which,"
 They ceased talking for they heard footsteps outside, and the sound of voices. Presently some one opened the door, and 1t seemed from the noise that was made. the shuffling of feet and the repressed tones of conversation, that a consider able number of negroes had responded to the Rev. Jeremiah's invitation.
 The first-comers evidently lit a candle for phantom-like shadow of light tricll- ed through a small crack in the closet door, and a faint. but unmistakable odor of sulphur match reached Gabriefs nostrils. There were whispered consulta- tions, and a good deal of untitled and subdued conversation, but every word that was distinctly enunciated was clear ly heard In the sound-box of a closet. But suddenly all conversation ceased.

Living in Paris.

Americans who have stopped in Paris iong enough to keep house find living there quite as high as in the United States. Meat is dearer, but the cuts are so fine that there is not so much waste, according to a writer in the Detroit News Tribune. Chickens cost about 50 cents apiece and salmon s1 a pound. Bread is about the same in price as here and tea and coffee more expensive, while fuel is very high, coal and wood being frequent 1y sold ir small quantities and gas cost ing about $1 50 per thousand feet. Domes- tic help ask about the same wages, al- though a man cook demands twice as much as a woman cook.

 "The first thing abUut her that would impress a stranger in the city would be her absolute disregard for the iron-bound formallty which controls those in high places. For instance, 1t was regarded as simply unthnkable that a lady of the royal family should ride bicycle. But Louise did-and rode well, too. That shocked Dresden.
 "Another of her doings that caused no end of a sensation was her sponsor ship in court circles of a certain young army officer. He was not noble born this young man, but he was a gentleman and a worthy associate for any one who was. So the princess took him up and procured for him an invitation to one of the great court balls. He was ostraci;cd at that event, more or less, until the princess in defiance of all precedent. commanded him to dance with her. And he did
 Those were the sort of things Louise did about the court Whatever effect they may have had on her associates of high degree. 1t is certain that they made her the idol of the common people.
