1t was short time he stayed with us~
Only one month and two days
When the angels called him
And he left all in grief.
Our darling little baby
No fairer ever knOwn;
But it's such God has chosen
TO brighten his throne.
We would not wish him back
To this world of sin and care
When we know among the angels
He is so happy there
With little w alter and Ruby, whs,s-s
Have gone before.
With Time. the great Consoler,
Our grief will pass away,
And the deepness of our sorrow

Throughout this life of pain.
And may meet in heaven

Miss Agnes Miller, of Chicago,
speaks to young women about
dangers of the Menstrual Period
how they can avoid pain,
suffering and remove the cause.
Il suffered for six years with dys-
menorrhea painful periods), SO much so
that dreaded every month, as knew
it meant three or four days of intense
pain. The doctor said this was due
to an inflamed condition of the uterine
appendages caused by repeated and
neglected colds and feet wetting.
eff young girls only realized how
dangerous it is to take cold at this
critical time, much suffering would be
spared them. Thank God for Lydia
e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, that was the only medicine
weeks after I started to take it, I
noticed marked improvement in my
general health, and at the time of nv
next monthly period the pain had
diminished considerably. / kept up
the treatment and was cured month

Mrs. French in Greece.

Trying pastures new, Mrs. Seth Bar
ton French has been having an inter-
esting spring in Greece. 1t is thought
she will have some amusing expert
ences to relate when she returns in the
autumn. Mrs. French is young ma
tron Of great tact, and she is said to
have captiVated the Grecian royal fam
lily. OF course, these high personages
are not eager to welcome wandering
Americans, and that is why Mrs.
French's reception at court is all the
more noteworthy This summer Mrs.
French will open Chastellux, her New
port villa. In Greece she has been
with Mrs. Robert Goelet a great deal.
Mrs. Goelet has her ocean-going yacht
Mamma in seaport there, and several
parties for Grecian nobility have been
given by these two American women.

An Athletic Hostess.

10 prove how unreasonable some
hosts are, here is the example of a
young married woman who has a villa
at Deal Beach. She was athletic as an
undergraduate and there was no sport
she did not perfectly adore" She and
ner husband asked a city friend down
Tor the week end. The friend had been
working hard in his office and wore
the city pallor. Mrs. GoodfelIow called
for him one bright morning at the
railway station in her runabout. She
drove him to the beach, where her
maid and bathing gown were waiting
for her. The man was compelled to
take a swim. Before he was rested.
after his ducking, he was marched
back to the house for luncheon. 1T et's
try my new tandem" cried Mrs. Good
fellow, and directly after luncheon
they were jogging down the Jersey
lanes. Then they visited the tennis
courts, where she and the man PLAYED
six fierce sets of tennis. He was on the
verge of falling in his tracks, when
Mrs: Goodfellow said, Lets play nine
noles OF golf and then we shall be fit
Tor dinner, you know. Tennis is slow.
isn't it,? The dropping man barely
managed to stagger through the golf
and was taken back to the villa with
FAR less desire for dinner than for
about twenty-four hours in bed.
he really did dress for dinner. He
ached from head to toe and was count
ing upon long sleep, when Mrs.
Goodfellow called MY wrap, Goodie.'
Inen TO the guest, Were going to the
dance at the Country club Tonight.
Won't it be jolly? I do so enjoy an in
formal dance" The guest was dragged
to the dance and actually fell asleen
on the drive home. The next day he
rushed back to town to rest. This was
one. well meaning woman's idea Of
how to entertain at a country home. .

Outside the ranks of rising young
actresses few women have met with
such procession of. interesting acct
dents as the Baroness Won Leyden. AS
child she helped an aged man who
had fallen in the street and he left her
fortune. Then she lost herself in a
Hungarian forest and was found by
the German baron who married her.
Next she was captured in a crater by
Italian brigands, but was rescued by
Carabinieri and rewarded for delaying
her captors. Then she lost her way in
China, and found the jeweled eyes Of
a Buddha, which she returned to it's
owners, to be again rewarded. Later
on she was attacked by a mad dog,
but the brute fastened his teeth in an
ivory bracelet and she remained un-
hurt. Yet again she was captured by
br1gands in Macedonia, but was re-
leased and sent on secret mission by
the band. Her latest adventure involv-
ed the car. He was shooting some
where when the baroness providential-
ly got within range and the result is
an imperial gift as solace for a
scratch on the shoulder. The lady, 1t is
almost needless to say, is an Amer
lean.

the blue back ground her necklace of
coral beads and her long coral chain
looked well. An deliberately carved
basket of flowers swung from the
chain. But the coral was carved fine
ly and the centers of the flowers were
bits of gold. Miss Louise Leary, Miss
Annie Leary's niece, has a superb cross
of amethysts. She wears this jewel in
the cathedral only. 1t is an heirloom.
But crosses are worn also by women
to whom they seem suited. One night
recently in a restaurant a woman,
whose brassy hair and chemical COM
plexion, spoke elOquently of her posi-
ton in the social scale, f1ourished a
gold cross with an elaborate 81. N. r.

IDEAL WIVES ARE SCARCE
EASTERN CLERGYMAN TELLS
DISMAL STORY OF HIS SEARCH
Finds Women of Every Type but the
Kind Who Will Build the Fire, Scrub
the Floor and Sew on His Buttons.

1t is becoming quite the thing nova
days when one wants a wife to adver-
tise for her in the papers. The other
day Russian prince was advertising
for a wife with money and now we
hear Of clergyman who advertised for
his ideal wife, and the funny thing
about it seems that they don't always
get what they advertise for. Now the
Russian prince failed in his designs
upon Chicago girls and it is not TO be
wondered at because of the awkward
way he went about it, but one would
have thought that a minister in Sack
ing only for his ideal in woman-leaV-
ing her money out of the question
would have been able to find
her. But, no, after travelling nearly
5000 miles to find the woman vino
would come up to his ideal as a wife,
the Rev. G. w. Brownback has return
ed to his home in Reading, Pa, a dis
appointed man.
In the presence of a large congreSa-
ton at the Black Bear camp meeting
he admitted his inability to find help
meet after advertising specifically for
just the sort of woman he wanted 1t
is quite needless to say that the rela-
ton of his experiences has caused a
great deal of comment. Once, lie said,
he came so near to being kissed that
he had to cut short his visit to escape.
On another occasion he was made I'M
comfortable by a wealthy woman who
fell in love with him and threatened to
do herself bodily harm because her
passion was not reciprOcated.
In his travels he met many Of the
nv h cd,
tisement for a wife.
Il met some women" said he, "Who
couldn't sew on a button They didn't
know the first thing about boiling an
egg" he continued, while the staid ma
irons in his congregation listened in
amaZement. They couldn't make q
fire and were careless in their habits.
They positively refused to use a scrub
hing brush, and I saw that it would be
necessary for a husband to use a
scrubbing brush onothem.
MANY were extremely pretty but
vain and arrogant. All they cared
about was dress. They are not wor-
thy Of mans respect. A few of my
correspondents sent me their pictures.
They looked very pretty in the picture
and reminded me of peaches. I made
arrangements with them to meet me
at the station. When I got off the
train found them the homeliest look
ing women on earth. Instead Of
peaches they reminded me of raw tur-
nips," said this giddy clergyman.
Mr. Brownback highly commends
advertising as a means of searching
for wife, for it gives man an oppor-
tunity for such careful selection of a
life partner, he says.
