% "DEAR Mrs. P1NKHAM:-Life looks
dark indeed when woman feels that
her strength is fading away and she has
no hopes of ever being restored. Such

I was advised that my poor health was

womb. The words sounded like q

but Lydia f.. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound came to me as an

returned to me. For four mouths I

ENGLISH GROWING LARGER
Talk Of Race Degeneracy Contradict
ed by Figures Of a Wooden
Firm.

With the view of ascertaining
whether the race is deteriOrating
or otherwise, so far as physique is
concerned, a large wooden firm at
Leeds, England, recently under
took the task of comparing the
measurements made in it's wooden
department at the present time
with those in similar classes of
goods manufactured a couple Of
generations ago. The result an.
nOunced, says a London paper, is
greatly in favor of present day
conditions. The average chest and
hip measurements work out at
fully three per cent. increase.
This rule applies practically to
all parts of the country, with the
exception Of a few isolated towns.
Coming at a time when so much ia
being heard of the deterioration
Of the race, this announcement eff.
fOrds a welcome surprise, and ef.
fective1y demOlishes the theory
that the race is deteriOrating.
The English giants are apparent

much bigger than was the case 50
or so years ago.

Undoubtedly the American In
dian in his primeval state was a

pox, measles, tuberculosis, govt,
scuryy, insanity, nervous diseases
nor any other of the ills and blood
affections which have in late years
made such terrible inrOads upon
the numbers and vitality of the
red men of this country.
The only bodily Affections which
DR.. Kempf reports to the Medical
Record that he found among the
a~bOrigines were fevers and dis
eases produced by cold, such as
pleurisy, pneumonia, rheumatism,
%dysentery and wounds from acct
dents or battle. Naturally the
remedies of the Indians were sim
pie and few in number. When sick
an Indian refused all kinds of
stimulating ailments, but drank
prOfusely of cold water. In add
ton to this, in proper cases, the
Indians resOrted to sweating,
purging, vomiting and bleeding.
and finally, when all remedies
seemed to be in%eHfectual, the med.
icine man was called in TO try his
amulets and incantations on the
patient.
These methods of cure are still
resOrted to among blanket Indi
ans who are removed from the in
fuences of civilization. But be
fore we smile or condemn these
practices we should consider Oul
own history. 1t was only a few
generations ago that our ideas o.
medicine were almost as crude al
those of the Indians. The more in

Imagined Tip.


In the old days of excitement,
when mining stocks were on the

incident occurred at the country
residence of James c. Flood, in
Menlo, when a fairly well-to-do
resident found himself without a
home in the short period of one
week, relates the San Francisco
Call. The mans name was Hank,
and, being a irst-class gardener,
he readily found employment
about the residence of the wealthy
owners of mansions. In this way
he was employed at the Flood resi-
dence. Hank was lettering about
the garden one Saturday evening
as the proprietor, in company
with a visitor, was looking over
the stock.
Mr.. Flood, who had just stepped
out Of the hog corral, casually re-
marked to his friend that he
would be willing to make a bet
