Dyspepsia Of Women
ABSOLUTELY NEEDLESS AGONY
caased by Uterine Disorders and Cured BY

A great many women suffer with .
form of indigestion or dyspepsia which
does not seem to yield to ordinary treat
ment. While the symptoms seem to be
similar to those of ordinary indiges-
ton, yet the medicines universally pre-
scribed do not seem to restore the pac
%ient's normal condition.

Three days later, as they were
climbing over hilltop, they saw two
men several hundred rods in advance
and gave chase.
They were within long rifle range
when the two fugitives discovered
them and began to run.
The two men darted into a ravine
and they saw them no more. Glum
Ralston was of the opinion the men
they chased were two seal hunters,
who had wandered into the woods in
search of moose or deer.
They continued toward the coast,
following a faint trail. At last they
came upon one of those bays that ex-
tend inland, and saw great, floating
icebergs glistening in the light of the
sun. Suddenly the old man stopped
and pointing to some tracks in the
snow cried
Look, Crack-lash. There's big
game"
What do you make it out to be,
Glum?" Paul asked.
''Nothin' more nor less than a polar
bear"
Paul had heard much of those fierce
beasts, but never seen one. The

NEW TROLLEY ENTERPRISE,
A. o. Fox Interested in an lnterurban
Near Dubuque.

Dubuque Times, Oct. IA. o. Fox,
president of the Northern Electric
Manufacturing company of Madison,
Wis, who is associated with former
Senator Villas of Madison and Patrick
Flynn of Platteville in a movement
to build an interurban line from Du
buque to Apple River, ILL.,, via Platte
Vile and Shullsburg, is in the city.
Mr. Fox makes the broad statement
that the project Of which he is one of
the moving spirits will be carried 40
| successful conclusion. The ground
mas been carefully canyassed, he says,
and he and his associates are in a po-
sition TO guarantee that the road
will be built Mr.. Fox states that the
cooperation of eastern capitalists has
been secured and there wsll be no
trouble regarding the financing Of the
proposed road.
Our plan is to ound line from
Platteyille, via Cuba City, Hazel
Green and Sinsinawa to Dubuque,
also easterly to Shullsburg and Apple
River" said Mr.. Fox In coming in
to Dubuque the company will endeav-
or to make such arrangements with
the Union Electric company as shall
serve the best needs Of the public
Our plan is that Of an electric power
station of sufficien capacity to fur
nish all needed power for use at the
mines and on farms anywhere within
ten miles either side of the line Of the
road, besides operating the electric
railway The track is to be of heavy
construction adapted to taking stan I.
ard freight care srnn1 any of the
standard steam roads The road will
use heavy electric engines of modern
type and ii about forty-hve torfs
weight adequate to draw any regular
freight train. The passenger cars
VIA be of the most modern interurban
trolley type This plan Of placing at
the use of the mines and farms all
the electric power they need viii give
great opportunity for development
everywhere and should greatly in
crease mining, because it will no
longer be necessary for mine owners
or renters to put up power stations or
tie up their money in permanent
plants, the electric motor power being
at all times portable and requiring
only the cheapest kind of a house -

ers who possess the same class or
breed of horse and who will pledge
themselves by every legitimate means
to further the interests of the associa-
tion and of the breed handled. il
would be the work of such an associa-
ton to protect the interests of its
members, provide suitable stations
each year for use upon the mares
owned by the members, advertise
stock, attract buyers, hold sales, make
exhibits at the county, district and
state fairs, hold meetings for discus
sion of horse-breeding matters 10 edu-
cate the farmers of the locality to bet
development of marketable horses.
Were such associations formed in each
horse-5reeding center throughout the
state, and were each of them to preach
and practice the same sound doctrines
OF breeding, the use of the scrub,
grade, cross-bred and unsound stations
would soon be thing OF the past,
while better mares would be used for
breeding purposes with the inevitable
result of general improvement in the
quality of Wisconsin horses and the
consequent profits.
The bulletin, an exceedingly valuable
one, will be sent free to residents OF
the state upon request to the dean OF
the Agricultural college. Some 10000
copies were published. This depart
ment of horsebreeding is the first or
its kind in this country. The
Wisconsin college of agriculture
once more has led the other institu-
tons in advancing the interests of
agriculture.

Cleveland Moffett in Success Maya
Zine.-Of course no one objects to
women having a reasonable amount OF
jewelry, what they can wear without
ostentation or any great concern for
its safety; such modest possessions
are sanctioned by universal custom,
and from all time jeweled rings and
trinkets have been symbols of love
and should remain So Besides there
lis beauty in precious stones just as
there is in cher stones not called prec-
Iious-witness the opal, the most beau
tiful of them all. But when people
valLn jewelry neither for it's beauty
nor its associations, but merely for its
Icostliness, when they wear as much
OF it as they can simply to show that
they have been able to buy that much
or make men buy it for them. when
their pleasure in having it lies chiefly
in the knowledge that others envy
them, then l say the love of Jewels is
an evil thing, based on arrogance and
.selfshness. Ana can not see what
justification woman who knows of
the misery about ner can find for
81 ending half million dollars or any
thing like it on jewelry.
l. should be noted Furthermore,
that the chief harm of this passion for
jewels is not in the waste of millions
involved, although that is bad enough,
but in the stirring of envy, in the
prompting of extravaganza, in the urg-
ing of dishonesty. If we could know
what crimes have been committed for
the sake of diamonds we should see
that there is some devils hypnotism
in the glittering stores and would
have them al cast INTO the sea Tor
general safety. Certain it is that no
house where there is precious stones
.abound is free from evil desires. Ser
wants are tempted, guests are tempt
ed, strangers are tempted, even init
mate friends are tempted Who has
forgotten the story of those stolen
Newport jewelsr And so the untor
tunate owners of these wonderful
necklaces, tiaras, plastrons. rivieres,
etc. must hire men to guard them
when they wear these coveted treas
ures or else leave them unseen and
unused behind stupid iron doors.

RICH MAN AND THE MASSES.

The problem arising from the ag
graudizement OF wealth may be
briefly stated thus. To ind ana marx
the place in the accumulation OF
wealth where a man ceases TO collect
money fairly earned by service to so
ciety, and keeps on collecting morally
unearned money 10 use in giving him
improper power over society. But 20
find and to mark that place requires a
moral and spiritual growth among
ehe people, Perhaps a thousand or
ten thousand men In America might
dud ami mark the dead line now; but
dntil the great mass OF the population
learn q lou shalt nor steal in some
other manner than by rote, until they
make the commandment as much a
part OF thier lives as they make the
commandment against murder. they
will not have the moral sense to find
the place where mans accumulation
of wealth must STOP nor the moral
