Bergen, Aug, l, 1904
 We felt almost like North Pole" ex- plorers as we steamed on our cozy little steamship, Neptune" among the western fjords of Norway on our way to the North Cape, and you may be sure we realized that we were long way from cur Alabama homes.
 Three different steamship lines gave us a varied Idea of life at sea. From New York we used the German line, and we were satisfied that the German offi- cers could not be beat From England we patronized an English line and we forced to admit that Captain Gardel, our English friend, was the very best. At Trondhjem he left his ship and escorted US to the Neptune" of the Royal Nor wegian line and parted from us so ,e- luctantly that we felt that we had made a. friend indeed. After days voyage toward the North Cape the Norwegian" officers had simply captivated us all and when we left the ship our affecting rarting, tinged somewhat by former cx- periences forced me to cneer the girls by the reflection-"there are others" But such ships and such service and by no means least such" officers make the trip to the Cape delightful beyond description. We are fast friends with England though and I will tell you why. I'll give you the pictures and one re- mark.
 During our trip from London to Hull we suddenly realized as Americans will do, that We were hungry. So at three minutes stop at a station we ran the length of the train to the diner and seat ed ourselves comfortably to the utter dis may of the attractive young Englishman who entered and found us in possession as if we had dropped from the skies We were told we could not be served for an hour so after the whistle had blown for the train to start we flew out and down the platform to our com partment, with every English head in the whole train out the window to see the performance.

Miss Rose Hennessy, well
 known as a pOetess and elocu. tionist, of Lexington, Ky., tells how she was cured of uterine inflammation and ovaritis by the use of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege. table Compound.
 DEAR MRS. PINKHAM:-For years I enjoyed the best of health and thought that Iwould always do so. attended parties and receptions thinly clad, and would be suddenly chilled, but I did not think of the results. I caught a menstruating, and this caused inf1am- nation of the womb and congested ovaries. Isuffered excruciating pains and kept getting worse. My attention was called to your Vegetable Com pound and'the wonderful cures it had performed, and made up my mind to try it for two months and see what it would do for me. Within one month I felt much better, and at the close of the second was entirely well.

Bishop Potter's Saloon.


 amount of censorious criticism if not of actual abuse. Big. broad and bold, the reverend bishop has seen the prohibf- tionists and temperance people fight the liquor trade in this and other cities. Failure Is what they have to show for their labors.
 Bishop Potter Is no dreamer. He Is practical man. He recognizes the saloon as condition of social life fin this city. He knows 1t to be the reading room, the club of the working man. He knows why men seek the society of their fel- low men He knows that some men drink to be social, some to get drunk. He is not seeking to pick out the occa- sional man who Is drnnkard and to impose restraints upon him, ut to give the man who wants a decent club room and occasional drink, a place where he can pass a pleasant hour fin the least injurious company. Bishop Potter knows that in every fashionable metropolitan club every member who has a bar check can order drinks for himself and his friends and he also knows that members who drink to excess are soon made to understand that their presence Is obtec- tionable.
 Where Is there to be found a stronger temperance sermon or a greater restraint | than that of a company which rejects l from It's presence an offending memDerl self-restraint and control is the unwrit- | ten requirement. of member of fash ionable club. This Is what I take 1t. Bishop Potter hopes to introduce in sa- l loon life. Brawlers and drunkards soon | learn that their presence is not desired in certain places and go elsewhere. It will be found that Bishop Potter's sa- | loon Is one peculiar for the conditions | that exist. Decent minded men will cre- ate an atmosphere which will not be 10
