READ ADDRESS ON AN EGG
Young Woman's Joke Brings a Re
ply That May Lead to Future
Matrimonial Results.

Perham, Minn.-It was while visiting
in Iowa last fall that a young woman OF
this place wrote her name on an egg that
was being prepared for market and is
now in receipt of letter and two pho
tos of the man who discovered the ad-
dress on an egg that he ordered in a res
taurant.
The letter states that the writer called
for two boiled eggs in New York res
taurant, and that just before breaking
the shell of one saw the name and ad-
dress written on it, forwarded a letter
and two photographs to the address. The
writer states that he would like to be-
come better acquainted and adds that he
is the captain of an ocean-going vessel,
and that if his letter is not answered soon
the young woman may not get response
to her missive, If she sends one, for some
time.
The Perham girl in question is unde-
cided as to her course of action in the
matter, and is more or less excited over
the outcome of her little joke.
She has written to her friend in Iowa
in regard to the matter, asking her ad-
vice. If the Iowa woman advises her to
answer the letter from the captain it is
not unlikely that the incident may be
ended at the altar.

How a Woman Was Freed from Troubles
That Had Made Life Wretched for
Many Years.
The immediate causes of headaches
vary, but most of them come from poor
or poisoned blood. In anemia the blood
is scanty or thin the nerves are imper-
fectly nourished and pain is the way i'll
which they express their weakness. In
colds the blood absorbs poison from the
mucous surfaces, and the poison irritates
the nerves and produces pain. In rheu-
matism, malaria and the grip, the poison
in the blood produces like discomfort. In
indigestion the gases from the impure
matter kept in the system affect the
blood in the same way.
The ordinary headache-cures at best
give only temporary relief. They deaden
the pain but do not drive the poison out
of the blood. DR.. Williams Pink Pills
OH the contrary thoroughly renew the
blood and the pain disappears perma-
nently. Women i'll particular have found
these pills all unfailing relief i'll head

tarieS.
Brig. Gen. Frederick D. Grant, COM
mander of the Department of the East,
will direct the operations of the land
forces, seconded by the artillery COM
manders of the districts embraced in the
maneuver zone, while Rear Admiral
Sands will command the defense fleet,
comprising the battleship Texas and the
new monitors Arkansas, Nevada and
Florida, assisted by a large fiotilla of
torpedo craft and submarines.
The North Atlantic fleet, which will
engage in the attack, will be under the
command of Rear Admiral Robley D.
Evans, the Fighting Bob" of the navy,
which fact is an assurance of the splen-
did achievement on its part.
Admiral Evans will have under his
command the finest and most powerful
fleet ever assembled under the American
flag, the composition of which will in
clude in the two main squadrons the bat
tleships Maine, Missouri, Alabama, Illi-
nois, Kearsarge, Kentucky, Iowa, Mas
sachusetts, Georgia, New Jersey, Rhode
Island and Virginia, and the armored
cruisers New York, Brooklyn, Pennsyl-
vania, West Virginia, Colorado and
Maryland, total of II battleships and
six cruisers for the armored portion Of
the fleet. These vessels are armed with
1854 heavy guns in their main batteries,
ranging from the monster 13-inch and
the new improved Pinch rifles down to
the five-inch rapid-fires, besides carry
ing an armament of innumerable quick
firing and automatic guns OF smaller cal
tbers.
BY comparison, this fleet is about
three times as powerful as the entire ar
mored war fleet of the japanese.
A prominent naval officer connected
with the preparation of the plans said re-
Gently: Never before have the coast ar
tillery and the navy been in position to
hold so extensive and instructive joint
exercises as will be the case in their next
bout with each other, which takes place
in June. The navy has better ships than
ever, and more of them; their offensive
and defensive qualities are of the best,
the guns of the newest ships are marvels
in point of range, power and rapidity of
fire, while the personnel of the fleet has
been so thoroughly drilled and trained
they are keyed up to a pitch only
equalled by Togo's veteran jackies."
None the less confident in the ability
Of the coast artillery to give good ac-
count of themselves are the officers and
men OF that branch of the service, who

A JUDGES WIFE PAW 5 AZ 34 5zD SIDE
Quickly Cured by a Sh ri
Course of Pe-ru-na.

MFRS. MINNIE E. McALLISTER,
lv1 wife of Judge McAllister, writes
from 1917 West 33rd street, Mime
apolis, Mimi, as follows:
ISuffered for years with pain in
the small of my back and right side. II
inferfered often with my domestic and
social duties and IneVer supposed that
I would be cured, as the doctors med
icine did NOT seem to help me any.
Fortunately a member of our Order
| advised me to try Peruna and gave it
such high praise that decided to try
it. Although I started in with little
faith, felt SO much better in a week
that felt encouraged.
81 took it faithfully for seven weeks
and am happy indeed to be able to say
that am entirely cured.
"Words faifo expire IS my gratitude.
Perfect health once more Is the best
thing could wish for, and thanks to
Pernna, enjoy that now"
Pain in the back, or on the right side.
How often a physician hears this
complaint!
Over and over we hear women say:
81 have a pain in the small of my back.
have pain in my right side, just be-
low the ribs"
These symptoms indicate pelvic or
abdominal catarrh.
They indicate that the bowels are not
acting properly-that the liver is out of
order-that the pelvic organs are con-
gested.
Pelvic catarrh-thati is the name for it.
Peruna cures pelvic cafarrh, when
all of these symptoms disappear.
The catarrh may be all in the alb
dominal organs, when it would be
properly called abdominal catarrh
At any rate, it is one of those cases of
internal catarrh which can be reached
only by a course of treatment with
Peruna.
We have on file thousands of testi-
monials similar to the above. It is i'm
possible here to give our readers more
than one or two specimens of the num-
Der of grateful and commendatory let
tiers DR.. Hartman is constantly receiv-
ing in behalf of his famous catarrh
remedy, Peruna.

Tended, but as an approximation of actu-
al war conditions the coast squadron OF
harbor-defense vessels and torpedo craft
will aid the artillery in the defense
against the onslaught of the big battle
ships and armored cruisers of the "en-
emy." For the first time as yet in real
or mimic war the new submarine tor
pedo bosts recently added to the navy
of Uncle Sam will be called upon to show
the stuff they are made of in assisting the
defense. The moral effect upon the hos

little craft awaiting it's destruction will
induce greater caution on the part of the
attacking commander than has been the

case in past exercises of the kind, and
the artillery look for considerable aid
from these dangerous little boats. I'm
doubtedly their participation will add
an element of realism. and of uncertainty
and risk heretofore lacking.
A probable novelty in the coming ex-
ercises will also be in evidence in the
land attack and defense of the fortifica-
lions at at least one point of the de-
lenses of the Chesapeake. Failing pas
sage of the mine fields and batteries sup
porting them, the hostile fleet will at
tempt to land large numbers of sailors
and marines will find pieces to attack
the flank and rear of the coast batteries.
To checkmate such designs, infantry and
field artillery from nearby army posts,
together with troops of the national
guard of the neighboring states, will be
called upon to resist the landings and
capture or drive back the jackies to
their ships.

The idea in this case also is to attract

be used merely to illustrate the advertise
ment, and not as the advertisement itself.
