OF all the diseases known, with
which women are afflicted, kidney dis
ease is the most fatal. In fact, unless
early and correct treatment is applied,
the weary patient seldom survives.
Being fully aware of this, Mrs. Pink
ham, early in her career, gave exhaust
i've study TO the subject, and in pro-
ducing her great remedy for woman's
ills Lydia Il. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound--was careful to see that it
contained the correct combination of
herbs which was sure to control that
fatal disease, woman's kidney troubles.
The Vegetable Compound acts in har-
mony with the laws that govern the
entire female system, and while there
are many so called remedies for kidney
troubles, Lydia e. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound is the only one espe-
cially prepared for women, and thou
sands have been cured of serious kidney
arrangements by it. Derangements of
the feminine organs quickly affect the
kidneys, and when a woman has such
symptoms as pain or weight in the
loins, baclSache, bearing down pains,
urine too frequent, scanty or high col
ored, producing scalding or burning,
or deposits like brick dust in it; un-
usual thirst, swelling of hands and feet,
swelling under the eyes or sharp pains
in the back running down the inside
of her groin, she may be sure her kid
neys are affected and should lose no
time in combating the disease with
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound the womans remedy for wo-
mans ills.
The following letters show how
marvelously successful 1t is.

A SUPERSTITION OF TARs.
Well.Grounded Belief Warships Man,
ed After Snakes Are Unlucky.

"cii'STOunuCu bSliCI WdTSHipS NdIH-
ed After Snakes Are unlucky.
II one should be so bold as to char
acterize the superstitious sailor as
silly he would at once declare that
there is sufficient reason for his belief
and would proceed to prove that war
vessels named after singing and ven
omous things have been unlucky, and
that the country should not be so in.
different to the men who follow "a
life on the ocean wave" as to organize
mosquito fleet, says the Navy
League Journal.
That Snake is regarded as an unfor-
tunate name for a vessel is shown by
the fact that two of that name have
been lost, one in 1881 and the other
in 1S47; but no vessel bearing that
| name is known to exist now. Serpent,
which is only a substitute name for
Snake, is an unlucky one also, for the
| one wrecked in 1892 was the fourth
| British war vessel of that name to
| meet the same fate. Viper has been
an unlucky name in the British navy.
The first one was wrecked in 1880,
but the admiralty would not swerve,
| and so kept the name on the list, each
vessel meeting its doom, and the
fourth was lost only recently. The
French navy has also been unlucky
with vessels so named. The Viper,
used in the British service after she
became a prize from the French, was
lost in 1893 The second was lost
year later, the third in 1897, and the
fourth was recently lost in a COLI
sion off Guernsey.
The Cobra, another British war ves-
sci, was lost recently at the same time
as the Viper. Among other vessels
fates other than in battle are the Rat
tlesnake, in 1881; the Alligator, in
1882; the Crocodile, in 1884; the Ad-
der in 1916; three Lizards, two Drag
ons, and one Basilias. All of these
were Of the British navy. The list
could be made larger by citing the
record of other navies.
The Norsemen, who were so fond
of naming their vessels against the
laws of superstition and using hideous
heads Of dragons and reptiles on their
high prows, were less unfortunate,
and these did not meet with frequent
disasters. They did have a belief,
however, that it was unlucky and
sacrilege to select such a name as
did Lord Dunraven for his first yacht
TO challenge for the Americas cup,
the VallIyrie. And this belief was
strengthened when she was sunk by
the Satanita. The second challenger,
with the same name gave trouble, and
she was broken up after only short
existence.

NO CHLOROFORM
SAYS DR., 0SLER
FOR MEN WHO HAVE ARRIVED AT
AGE OF 60.
But He Thinks Il Would Be For the
General Good Were They to
Quit Work

Baltimore, Md, Feb. 26.-Dr Will
liam Osler stated tonight that the pa
pers had been having "a lot of iAn'
with him and that he would like to
make the following statement:
First did not say that men at GO
should be chloroformed. That was the
point in the novel to which | referred
and on which the plot hinged.
Second-Nothing in the criticisms
have shaken my conviction that the
telling work Of the world has been
done and is done by men under 40
years of age. The exceptions which
have been given only illustrate the
rule.
"Third-It would be for the general
good if men at 60 were relieved from
active work"

Human skulls as Ornaments.

Gwandu, native town in Africa,
contains between 10000 and $4,000
inhabitants and is surrounded by a
palisade of poles, the top of every
pole being crowned with a human
skull, There are six gates and the
approach to each gate is laid with a
pavement of human skulls, the tops
being the only parts that show above
the ground More than 1000 skulls
are used in the pavement leading up
to each gate. The pavement is of
snowy whiteness, polished to the
smootlness of ivory by the daily pass.

Deep Tube Railways.

An English engineer of some stand
ing has written to the London news
papers to sound a note of dreadful
warning He is apparently convinced
that at no distant date the British
metropolis, or huge slices of it, at all
events, will go sliding off from its
foundations into some unknown and
fathomless abyss. The deep tube rail.
ways, 1t seems, are to cause this ca
tastrophe. His explanation is too
technical for brief report, and can be
indicated only in a very general way.
London subsoil is of clay, some hun
dreds of feet in thickness, which
forms a series of basins, gradually
sloping down to a point below the bed
of the Thames. These basins are
filed with water, coming from the sur
face, which flows from one receptacle
TO another until it reaches the river.
So long as the basins are kept full.

created new sideways, and are, grad

ponds, causing enormous empty
spaces into which the foundations of
the British capital will slowly but
inevitably settle. Already, he says.

places in London, and great buildings

Until 1887 there was no public tele-

end of 1901 there we're 179 public

The Wool In India shawIs.

Oriental rugs and India shawls are
beautiful and durable, the shawls be-
ing quite as beautiful and durable as
the rugs; but, while Oriental rugs
have become more popular every
year, India shawls for long time
have been falling in public favor, until
there is, today, no general demand
for them at all.
A Burmese at the st. Louis exposi-
tion when a statement similar to the
one above was made to him, replied:
81 admit there is no general demand
for India shawls now. That is be-
cause women don't wear shawls any
demand of artists and museums and
collectors-is as good as it ever was.
The consequence of this is that India
shawls haven't deteriorated in quail
ity. On the contrary, they have i'm
proved year by year. Wy
