BRAVE LOVE.

He'd nothing but his violin,
I'd nothing but my song;
But we We're wed when skies were blue
And summer days were long;
And when we rested by the hedge
The robins came and told
How they had dared to WOO and win
When early spring was cold.
We sometimes supped on dewberrjes,
Or slept among the hay;
But oft the farmers wives at eve
Came out to hear us play
The rare old songs, the dear old tunes
We could not Starve for long
While my man had his violin
And ! my sweet lOve-song.
The world has aye gone well with US,
Old man, since we were one;
Our homeless wandering down the lanes
1t long ago was done.
But these who wait for gold or gear,
For houses or for kline.
Til YOUTHS sweet spring grows brown ant
Sere
And love and beauty pine
Will never know the JOY of hearts
That met without fear
When you had but your violin
And | a sOng-my dear.

MONSTER SPIDERS TERRORIZE.
Girl and Man Go Canoeing and Are Near
ly Drowned.

Miss Jessie Sherman, u years old,
of Brooklyn, daughter of John Taylor
Sherman, whose country home is at
Oyster Bay, went canoeing with Alden
Whitman.
They were more than half a mile from
the shore when three monster spiders
came from beneath the seat of the ca
noe and made their way aft to where
Miss Sherman was sitting
ParalyZed with horror, Miss Sherman
could do nothing but gaze as if fasci-
mated at the creatures. Finally the
spider which was attacking from the
port side, reached the edge of her dress,
and. with a scream of terror, Miss Sher-
man jumped to starboard, and over
went the canoe, spiders and all.
Both Miss Sherman and Mr.. Whit
man are expert swimmers, but, ham
pered by their clothing, they had hard
work to keep from sinking. Almost ex-
hausted, they began screaming for help.
A man employed by Colgate Hoyt, the
banker. was the first to respond, and
rowed swiftly to their rescue, while
many persons ran about on shore. Pres
1dent Roosevelt's household watched the
scene from Sycamore Hill.

MINISTER SEEKS FIGHT.
Preacher Attacks Lodges; Men Interfere
and Challenge Follows.

Rev. William Metthewson, pastor of
the Swedish Valley Methodist church of
Williamsport, Pa, created sensation
during Sunday service recently by offer
ing to fight any three men in the valley.
The challenge came as the climax of
a series of sensa tional attacks on mem
bers of the Masonic and other secret
orders. This time his remarks were re-
scented and a public quarrel followed,
several of the leaders in the church as
sailing the minister while he was in the
pulpit. Mr.. Matthewson declared from
the pulpit that no member of the Ma
sonic fraternity should have q place in
the church, and that no minister who
was member of the order had ever had
a successful revival. He sayagely at
tackled at the same time, the Grange
and Odd Fellows. In the midst of his
harangue Hiram Lent and Warren
Whit, two prominent members of the
church, challenged his conduct, asking
him to confine his sermon to topics of
religion. He ordered them out of the
church and then issued a challenge to
fight any three men. Matthewson is q
converted wOOdsman and has up to the
present time been successful in the min
istry. His challenge has not been ac-
cepted.

Thousands of Women
ARE MADE WELL AND STRONG
Success ofLydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound Rests Upon the Fact that Ii
Really Does Make Sick Women WelI

Thousands7upon thousands of Ameri-
can women have been restored to
health by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta-
BILE Compound. Their letters are on file
in Mrs. Pinkhamss Office, and prove this
statement to be a fact and not a mere
boast.
Overshadowing indeed is the success
of this great medicine, and compared
with it all other medicines and treat
ment for women are experiments.
Why has Lydia E. Pinl1ham's Nege-
table Compound accomplished its wide
spread results for good?
Why has 1T lived and thrived and
done it's glorious work for quarter of
a century?
Simply and surely because of its ster-
ling worth. The reason no other med
icine has even approached its success
is plainly and positively because there
is no other medicine in the world so
good for women's ills.
The wonderful power of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound over
the diseases of womankind is not be-
cause it is a stimulant- because it is
a palliative, but simply because it is
the most wonderful tonic and recon-
:structor ever discovered to act directly
upon the uterine system, positively
CURING disease and displacements and
restoring health and vigor.
Marvellous cures are reported from
all parts of the country by women who
have been cured, trained nurses who
have witnessed cures, and physicians
who have recognized the virtue in
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, and are fair enough to give
credit where it is due. If physicians
dared to be frank and open, hundreds
of them would acknowledge that they
constantly prescribe Lydia E. Pink
: hams Vegetable Compound in severe
cases of female ills, as they know by
experience that it will effect cure.
Women who are troubled with painful
or irregular menstruation, backache,
bloating (or fatulence), leucorrh@a,
falling, Inflammation or liberation of
the aterus. ovarian troubles, that
bearing down" feeling, dizziness,
faintness. indigestion, nervous pros
tration, or the blues, should take inn
mediate action to ward off the serious
consequences and be restored to health
and strength by taking Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound. Anyway,
write to Mrs Pinkham, Lynn, Mass,
for advice It's free and always helpful.

Shows He Knew What Food to Stick To.
Forwarding a photo Of a splendidly

1.-THE enclosed picture shows my 4
year-old Grape-Nuts boy.
Since he was 2 years old he has
eaten nothing but Grape-Nuts. He de-
mands and gets this food three times
a day. This may seem rather unusual,
but he does not care for anything else
after he has eaten his Grape-Nuts,
which he uses with milk or cream, and
then he is through with his meal. Even
on Thanksgiving Day he refused tur-
key and all the good things that make
up that great dinner, and ate his dish
Of Grape-Nuts and cream with the best
results and none of the evils that the
other foolish members of the family
experienced.
HE is never sick, has a beautiful
complexion, and is considered very
handsome boy. May the Postum Com

COLD-BLOODED ALL THROUGH.
Remarkable Saving Accident Fails to
Excite This Workman.

The most remarkable accident that
ever occurred in the history of the An
drews & Peck shop, Hartford, Conn,
happened when a 26-foot band saw split
from end to end and wound itself about
Joseph Dubrule, who was working on it.
Dubrule had been working on the ma
chine and had just stepped around it to
a position directly in front of the saw
blade. He bent forward to move the
adjuster and at that instant the blade
broke and coiled it's entire length about
the mans body. The saw was moving
at great speed when it split and the
other workmen stood aghast Dubrule
disentangled himself from the glittering
band and, stepping around to his ma
chine, shut it down himself. Then he
seized a bunch of cotton waste and be-
gan tying it about his right arm, which
had been cut through to the bone. He
was q mass of cuts. The little finger of
his left hand was cut off and there were
bad cuts on both legs.
