ings, or on the sad occasion of the
funeral of one of his children or
friends. Surely then it is more fitting
that he should lie at Jordans than be
removed to a mausoleum at Philadel-
phia. as some Americans advocated a
few years ago. 1t is even said that it
was necessary at one time to place a
guard over the grave to prevent the
removal of his bones by stealth.
Finally the agitators contented them
selves with erecting a large statue of
him in Philadelphia, and raising a
small headstone over the grave, sorely
against the wishes of the Friends. Jor-

A Misplaced
Infutuution
BY WILL REED DUNRoY.,

Owe is very strange thing,
whether it be in novels or just
here in plain, prosaic Chicago. There
is no telling how it is going to affect
those who catch the disease, if it is
a disease. as some scientists affirm,
and the antics it makes people do are
legion.
To some love comes like sudden
burst of sunlight, and after that the
world becomes a perfect heaven or a
perfect place of torment, according as
to how the one loved treats the one
loving. Some learn to love gradually
and there are those who say this is
the best plan, as love thus developed
lasts the longer. Be that as it may,
the story following is one that deals
with the sudden sunburst love and
the attendant melodramatic conse-
Quences.
Walter Graham is tn. hero of the
tale, and in this case he happens to
be a young clerk with a salary which
is barely adequate for his own neces-
sites and the few designations in
which he INDUCES. Once in awhile he
takes a trip across the lake of a Sun
day, and it was on one of these trips
that he fell in love.
She was on the boat. The rude
wind tossed her hat from her pretty
brown head and with little scream

the fact that it's then owner was called
Jordan. 1t was not until 1857 that it
was decided IT, erect a meeting house
in the little plot of ground acquired
some 16 years previously for burial
ground. On October II, 1858, the first
meeting was held at New Jordans."
Here it was that the great founder of
Pennsylvania, William Penn, used to
worship, and here, after all his travels,
trials and tribulations, he rests in the
peaceful little sanctuary near his first
and beloved wife, Gulielma
And Jordans seemed to have been
the rallying point of all his voyages.
Perhaps the fact that he first met Gu
lielma Springett there in measure ac-
counts for his deep love of the place,
though he was not married at the
meeting house, but at Kings farm,
Chorley Wood, where he lived for some
years. The farmhouse, still standing,
is much the same as it was in PENIS
time, though the curious old window
and door of the large room where the
marriage ceremony was performed is
concealed from view by newer build
ing.

train, and hid himself away back in a
dim corner, where he nursed his dis
appointment and chagrin.
Now and again he could hear the
laughter of the merry crowd in the
other end of the car, and it cut him to
the quick to find that the one he wor-
SHIPPED was the merriest of them all.
He could not hear what they were say
ing, and it was we'll for his peace of
mind that he could not, for most of
the merriment had him for it's butt

1T was fortunate accident, though,
wasn't it?" queried Violet, with a
roguish twinkle in her eye.

young man. And I'm not so sure but

out of the. way spot for the erection
of their meeting house, for, if remote
now, how much more remote must it
have been when it was first built 200
years ago.
During the year 1857 momentary
peace was granted to the Quakers by
the declaration of indulgence. 1t was
then that Jordans was built. They do
not seem to have been long left undis-
turbed, as one frequently reads Of SOL
diers rushing in at their meetings, and
the Friends themselves being made to
pay heavy fines, or even being thrown
into prison. To protect their women
from persecution, the gallery in which
they sat, was provided with sliding
shutters, which were hastily closed in
the event of an intrusion. Thus were
dame and damsel safely concealed till
all danger was past.
Before the present Jordans was built,
meetings were held in a farmhouse on
the top of the hill close by. The build
ing is still standing, known as Jordan's
farm. 1t probably took it's name from

rise to the remark that Friend Joseph
was the white Quaker" to the last
Many a:e the quaint stories told
about these old Friends. 1t is said that
William PENIS father was so irate at
his sons refusal to doff his hat to any
man, that on more than one occasion
he hid all Williams headgear to force
him to give in. But Penn stuck to his
principles. Even in the presence of
Charles II. he remained covered,
whereupon he removed his own hat.
observing that it was the custom at
Whitehall for only one man to wear
his hat at time.
One frivolous Friend was fond of
sport, and used to hunt in pink. His
dressed was denounced as being gay
and "unseemly," and when he died lit
is believed from fall in the hunting
field it was with great difficulty that
his friends obtained leave to bury him
at the meeting house. The story runs
that it having been decreed that his
Dody should not be permitted to pass
through the gates, the coffin was lifted
over the palings.
AT the present time the meetings at
Jordans are held only once a year. usu-
ally at the end of May, or as the
Friends themselves quantity express
it, the first day of the fourth week of
the fifth month. The old sect has died
out, and but few Friends live in the
immediate neighborhood Nevertheless
the meeting is largely attended by
FRIENDS who come from afar and by
members of other denominations. Nor
is Jordans left alone or forgotten dur.
ing the other months of the year. fol
the visitors book shows how MANY
come from all parts of the world to see
the old place. Most are perhaps Amer
leans of whom the caretaker has been
heard to say: Americans come from
all parts OF America and New York"
The beautiful surroundings of tbis

charm all who visit it, especially in the
spring time when the beech woods are
covered with their first young green

noIud SucceedS Where others Fall
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1905-09-01

All women work; some in their
homes, some in church, and some in
the whirl of society. And in stores,
mills and shops tens of thousands are
on the never-ceasing treadmill, earning
their daily bread.
All are subject to the same physical
laws; all suffer alike from the same
physical disturbance, and the nature of
their duties, in many cases, quickly
drifts them into the horrors of all
kinds of female complaints, ovarian
troubles, liberation, falling and dis
placements of the womb, leucorrh9a,
or perhaps irregularity or suppression
of "monthly periods" causing back
ache, nervousness, irritability and
lassitude.
Women who stand on their feet all
day are more susceptible to- these
troubles than others.
They especially require an invigorat-
ing, sustaining medicine which will
strengthen the female organism and
enable them to bear easily the fatigues
of the day, to sleep well at night, and
p to rise refreshed and cheerful.
How distressing to see a woman
struggling to earn livelihood or per-
form her household duties when hec
back and head are aching, she is SO
tired she can hardly drag about or
stand up, and every movement causes
pain, the origin of which is due to
some arrangement of the female or
ganisn.
