TRADE REPORT.

r. q Dun q Co.'s Weekly Review
of Trade says:
Seasonable temperature and holiday
purchases stimulated trade, making re-
suits more satisfactory during the
past week than at any recent date.
Improvement was most conspicuous in
heavy wearing apparel and kindred
lines that have remained dull because
of the mild weather. Another encour.
aging feature was the resumption OF
work at the New York mills, although
here is still much idle machinery, es-
pecially in the textile and iron indus.
tries. In view of the numerous wage
reductions there is noteworthy har-
mony between employees and workers.
indicating that the labor leaders an.
preciate the necessity OF sharing in the
readjustment.

banquet. All the carving Is done In al
apartment reserved for the purpose, 10
which the comestible are conveyed from
the kitchen. The custom of ~perquisites Is
probably more firmly established In the
Austrian imperial kitchen than anywhere
else In royal Europe.
Al some OF the smaller courts native
chefs are preferred. as, for example, in
Rome, Madrid and Stockholm. At the
sublime porte. Abdul Hamid formerly
contented himself with French chefs, but
after the visit OF the German emperor

All the s%ultan's personal dishes are pre-
pared in silver vessels, and are sealed by
the grand vlzier before they leave the
kitchen. The seal Is broken In the pres
ence of the monarch, and 1t Is the duty
Of the chamberlain to taste the first
mouthful IL so commanded. The decora-
ton OF a hef by his royal master is a
rere event; even the Royal Victorian Or
der was not considered by her late majes-
ty to be a suitable method OF acknowl-
edging the services OF her culinary artists.
When a famous chef retired from the
service of the imperial kitchen in Berlin
he was rewarded by the empress with the
Coli cross Of Merit, but even In the IA
therland this distinction was unique. Per-
haps the most curious kitchen depart

IN KITCHENS OF MoNARcHs.
Culinary Regime Below Stairs in Many

The chief cook is a German and under
him are a German and a Frenchman, al
though the use of the French language
upon the menus is strictly forbidden. The
chef has to get through about fourhun-

a very high salary. He is an adept In
the fabrication OF appetizing Russian
soups which are much liked by Nicholas

For the benefit of those people who

but a suggestion In order to apply 1T to
some purpose, let us present the fol-
lowing list of things that the world
now needs. Do not imagine, however,
tina none of these things AVE been at
tempted, for they have; but so far, the
perfect idea has not been evolved.
Therefore, the field is still open. Here's
your chance. Here are thirteen things
the world needs, for either n of which
1t will a you a fortune.

ones IN my arms which had never
given me serious trouble /; but about
two years ago one came on my
throat. At first it was only about as
large as a pinhead, but, as it was in
a position where my collar, if not
just right, would irritate it, it soon
became very sensitive and began to
grow rapidly. Last spr;rg it was
as large, if not larger, than a bean.
A little unusual irritation of my
collar started it to swelling, and in
a day or two it was as large as
half an orange. l was very much
alarmed, and was at a loss to de-
terruine whether it was q carbuncle
or a malignant tumor.

Whv Men See Snakes.

Chicago Tribune: A French scientist
accounts for the fact that snakes are seen
by those suffering from delirium tremens,
as follows: The minute blood vessels in

this condition they appear black and are
projected into the field of vision, where
their movements resemble the squirming

In which the sufferer martialed regiments

ACUTE INDIGESTION
CURED BY DR.. WILLIAMS PINK
PILLS FOR PALE PEOPLE
toms Described by Miss Rolling,
Former Sufferer

Healthy and rosy-cheeked, looking
as though she had never known a sick
day, Miss Helen Rolling has never
theless passed through intense suffer-
ing. To a reporter who called at her
home, No. 267 South Washington ST.,
Columbus, o., she said:
1.-TWO years ago | had an attack of
acute indigestion, accompanied by
nervous troubles and dizzy spells.
lost in weight, my complexion became
pale and sallow, slight exertion made
me breathe hard and could not walk
any distance without getting all tired
out. became alarmed and sought
medical aid, but the doctors gave me
no lasting benefit and l continued to
grow worse. My stomach could not
digest even the simplest and most
wholesome food and dieting did not
seem to help me. And | was so tired
and worn out all the while.
"It was DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People that cured me. l read
an article somewhere telling what
these pills had done and l began TAX
ing them. Relief came almost imme-
diately. l kept on taking them and
my color came back, / could eat again
with relish and with no fear of dis
tressing consequences. l began to
feel strong and active and in short
time was restored to perfect health. y
What DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People did for Miss Rolling they
will do for others similarly afflicted
as is proved by thousands of cases
on file.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills cure stom-
ach trouble by their tonic action,
building up the digestive organs and
enabling them to do the work that
nature intended them to do. Artifi-
cial ferments and predigested foods
weaken the stomach in many cases.
Medicines should not do the stomach's S
work but should put it in condition to
perform its natural functions. A diet
book giving useful information will
be sent free on request by writing to
the address below.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People are sold at so cents a box or
six boxes for two dollars and fifty
cents, and may be had of all drug
gists, or direct by mail from DR.. Will
Jams Medicine Company, Schenectady,
N. Y. They are never sold in bulk
or by the hundred. Avoid limitations;
substitutes never cured anybody.
