MUCH PUZZLED OVER PORCELAIN
Chinese Product Medieval Europe
Could Not Understand.

Cinnamon have been exporting their
porcelain to the west for at least a

like porcelain, and therefore regarded
It as a magical product endowed with
uncanny powers. 1t was said, for in.

Coffee gave me terrible spells Of

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, leucorrhea,
or perhaps irregularity or suppression
of monthly periods" causing back
ache, nervousness, iriitability 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 ut night, and
TO rise refreshed and cheerful.
How distressing to see woman
struggling To earn livelihood or per-
form her household duties when her
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 u

paid in advance for seats at windows

The adjacent streets were filled

curiosity.
ltinerant singers and musicians
took up positions at various points in
the streets. Parties sat supping at
improvised supper tables. Here and
there couples were dancing gayly to
the music of a violin or guitar.
Prior to the execution the con.

prison chapel, Bogaert breaking out

windows, housetops, and even the
chimneys, he shouted: "Oh, this is

Then, having drained the glass oi

five or six years and nothing seemed
to do her any good till she tried

Dodd's Kidney Pills have done for my

Dodd's Kidney pills have proved

Unreality.

Wise men figure out
That we're gravely in doubt
About things-many things.
So philosophers say,
And the poet so gay,
Likewise sings-sweety sings,
He errs who insists
Some thing really exists,
For il seems-merely seems;
And the world with its show,
And the days, as they go.
Are but dreams-idle dreams.
The pleasures we nurse
The misfoItunes We curse.
Are but shades-empty shades.
Ger the mind comes a thought,
Like a picture swift caught.
Then IL fades-quickly fades,
We stumble and grope,
And we sometimes lose hope
Mid these schemes--wicked schemes
But we'H waken some day.
And well smile as We say
They were dreams-idle dreams"
