Carry YOur Own Pillow.

Many people when away from home
find it difficult to sleep well in a
strange bed and arise in the morning
with a sense of having passed decid-
eddy unsatisfactory night. An old rail
way official, who ought to know, says
the trouble is all in the pillow. It's
the pillow first, last and always. He
has slept in many lands and under all
imaginable conditions and years ago
came to the conclusion that with ones
own pillow at hand it mattered little
about the bed. On an extended tour he
always takes his pillow with him,
slowing it carefully at the bottom of
the trunk for future reference. IF /
could start life over again." he says, II
would learn to sleep without a pillow
(the only proper way, but the art must
be acquired during childhood. The
next best thing is your own pillow
wherever possible. Try it and be con-

A W0man's ComplexiO N.

1t is rank foolishness to attempt
to remove sallowness or grehsiness
of the skin by the use of cosmetics,
or "local'' treatment, as advocated
by the beauty doctors. The only
safe and sure way that woman can
improve her com lexion is by purify
ing and enriching the blood, which
can only be accomplished by keeping
the liver healthy and active. The
liver is the seat of disease and blood
pollution. Green's August Flower
acts directly on the liver, cleanses
and enriches the blosd, purif1es the
complexion. It also cures consti-
patton, biliOusness, nervousness, and
induces refreshing sleep. A single
bottle of August Flower has been
known to cure the most pronounced
and distressing case of dyspepsia
and digestion. New trial size bottle

Some of the most important Of re-

that requires great physical strength
and endurance. But these are days

Photographic negatives taken night
after night at various observatories and
carefully classified afford material for
keen eyed investigators to make all
sorts of discoveries.
The Harvard college, observatory, for
example, is very shortly to bring out
photography of variable stars that has
been compiled by one of the women of
it's staff. 1t is an interesting fact, too
that a great majority Of these curious
heavenly bodies have been noted by
women observers working at the Har-
ward observatory under the direction OF
Mrs. w. p. Fleming, an astronomer
who has the credit of having detected
more new stars than any other one
person living. Mrs. Fleming has a
corps Of fifteen expert assistants.
To enter this profession it is impor

only be alert and sharp sighted, but
well educated, and considerable num-

ates of Radcliffe, the girls college af>
filiated with Harvard university, among

whose study of the Photographic spec

Director Edward G. Pickering of the
Harvard observatory has always taken
great interest in the courses Of as
tronomy at Radcliffe, for apart from
their general interest and value they
are of great helpfulness to the science
in bringing to it young women who are
well equipped to begin tasks of special

OLIVER CROMWELL.
The Greatest Error of His Career
Was Charles Execution.


The greatest error Of Cromwell's life
was the execution of the king. Not

voled no doubt by Charles double deal
ing, but he did not hate him; on the
contrary, he was inclined to him and
had wished to come to terms with him.
Himself trimming with family affec-
ton, he had been touched by the sight
OF Charles with his children. He was
impelled to the fatal act by what seem
ed to him fell necessity and by the I'M
cOntrOllable wrath of the army against
the king, whose perfidiouS machina-
tons, while he was treating with the
parliament for settlement, had kim
died the second civil war, with the
Scotch invasion, and brought them and
their cause once more into the eXtrem-
ity Of peril. It was at the prayer meet
ing of the soldiers at Windsor, before
they marched against Hamilton, that
the kings doom was really pronounced.
The secret treaty with the Scotch Tor
the invasion of England brought
Charles to the block, and his Offense
surely was capital, though it's punish
ment was most i'll advised. The death
of the captive king set the king free
and absolved the monarchy; it put i'll
eXpiable blood between the regicides
and a great part of the nation, and
flunkyism, far from being sickened, as
Carlyle says it was, f1ourished on the
martyrdOm and has continued to -four

WAITS IN AUSTRALIA.
The State Finds Them Good Homes
and Has No OrphanaSe.

and Has No Orphanage.
Australia is 4 continent without an
orphanage, a country without an or
phan. Each wait is taken to a receiv-
ing house where it is cared for till a
country home is found. The local vol
unteer societies canvass their neigh
borhOodS and send to the children'S
committee Of the destitute board the
names of any families they have
found where children may be placed.
The childrens committee selects the
home which it judges is best adapted
to the development Of the child in
question
No child is placed in a family so
poor that the child might suffer. The
foster parent receives a sum averaging
$1.25 per week for the care of the
child and for proper clothing. When Of
school age the child must be sent to
school. The local volunteer committee
looks after it's care and culture and
jealous neighbors often assist in watch
ing the growth and education of these
happy children.
When the child is fourteen years old
he begins to work. His earnings are
placed in the Postal Savings bank, and
at the age of seventeen or eighteen he
goes out into the world an Independent
man. The state, at an expense Of less
than $40 a year, has raised a man or
woman to contribute to it's wealth and
prevented the manufacture of a crimi-
nal and the expense Of courts, prisons
and reformatories.
