Then why, my dear young lady, should
your cheeks futter now between white
and pink, like a Marie van Houtte rose, be-
meath the most attractive and healthy
brown with which SUN and sea have
decorated you? And why, with even
greater emphasis, should you have been
warbling to yourself then the 1ovesick out
pourings of the Seville gallant to his
Rosina? l thought those old operas,
if not dead, for they are immortal, at
least were buried alive beneath mound
of Gaiety muslin and the striped cotton
habiliments of many negroes.
Girls get such WITNESSES in their

be no doubt, my dear, that something
extraordinary did occur.

established in that instant, sympathetic
contact, conscious in the maiden's case,

turned my eyes for a second from
Maggie's face and looked at Karl. He
reminded me of youthful warrior of the
age of chivalry, who, guarding his ar1nor
in some holy fame during the still watches
of the night, found sweet vision smiling
on him instead of the stone saint or
stained-glass picture of crude daylight.
Evidently he was unaware of having
exerted any perturbing influence on
Maggie. He was genuinely surprised by
the coincidence revealed by her words.
The girl herself seemed to be anxious

"Were they Wilhelm Steinda1 and

The question was out before he realized
that it had better have remained I'M

as any writer of nelo-farce could hope

in her excitement, and Maggie became red

Miss Hutchinson appeared to gain con-

a certain extent myself, were inthe
position of ships of different nationalities

shipbuilders who will restore the czar's war fleet to a fighting status commensurate with the nations dig nifty. Not less, than $200.0OO,00O will be required for this work; and that means a vastly increased demand for the structural steel. armor plates, ship machinery, metals and naval stores that this country produces in such abundance. This will come. too on top of a wonderfully prosperous con dltion in the iron and steel industry.
 It cannot be doubted that the re- turn of peace will mark the begin ming of remarkable era of industrial and commercial progress in Japan. She cannot reap the full fruits of her victory without developing the new territory that she has acquired and at the same time utilizing to their limit the resources that were already hers before the first shot of the war was fired. This means internal inn provements and development on a vast scale-the construction and extension of steam and electric railroads, the opening and working of mines the building of new telephone and tele- graph lines. the establishment of ad ditional steamship lines and a gen eral expansion in manufacturing that will. in the aggregate, make enormous drafts on American products.
 And in Russia, likewise, a general faceabout from the impoverishing and enervating processes that have mark ed the prosecution of the war to the arts of peace must at once create con- ditions that will stimulate importation from the western world as never be- fore.
 These significant and all-potent facts impress themselves at every turn: The United States helped ma terially in financing the war; she took the initiative in closing it; her presi- dent was more than once the savior of the peace situation; her financiers are likely to make the peace loans to the two former belligerents; and an obligation has thus been created which both the Japanese and the Russians will take pleasure in discharging.
 It is not all sentiment and glorifca- tion. There is business in 1t.

Peace and Business.

The New York Commercial, looking at the economic side of the peace set clement, finds it a great advantage to the United States. Says the Commer- cial:
 Apart from the world-reuputation that will now attach to President Roosevelt as the foremost and most progressive ruler of his day, and from the tremendous prestige that the Unit ed States has at the same time attain ed among the powers, the financial, industrial and commercial advantages that must come to this country as a direct result of the Russo-Japanese war now so happily ended are far too great for easy measurement at the moment.
 To begin with. Russia's navy, which has suffered a loss of sixty eight ships during tine war of a value variously estimated at from s75 ,OOO to $1OO, = 000,0O0 must be rebuilt-and made better than ever before, too; and American enterprise has already se- cured the leading place among the

Hearing how Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound had saved other women from serious operations I decided to try it, and in less than four months l entirely cured; and words fail to express my thankfulness."
 Miss Margret Merkley of 275 Sd Street, Milwaukee, Wis, writes:
 Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
 " Loss of strength, extreme nervousness, severe shooting pains through the pelvic organs, cramps, bearing down pains, and an irritable disposition compelled me to seek medical advice. The doctor, after making an examination, said that had ovarian trou- ble and alteration, and advised an operation as my only hope. To this 1 strongly objected and 1 decided as last resort to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
 ." To my surprise the alteration healed, all the bad symptoms disappeared, and am once more strong, vigorous and well; and can not express my thanks for what it has done for me"
 Ovarian and womb troubles are steadily on the increase among women and before submitting to an opera tion every woman should try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and write Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass. for advice.
 For thirty years Lydia E. Pinlham's Vegetable Compound has been curing the worst forms of female complaints, all ovarian troubles, inflammation. ul- ceration, falling and displacement of the womb, leucorrhea, irregularities, indigestion and nervous prostration. Any woman who could read the many grateful letters on file in Mrs Pink hams office would be convinced of the efficiency of her advice and Lydia E.

The lamp of experience gives light in these days just as it did in Pat rick Henry's day. and is just as use ful in showing the road. This coming winter with that light turned on. con gross will be asked to reconsider the hasty act by which it deprived the en- listed men of their exchange can teens
 The request will come, in the first instance, from the Woman's Army and Navy League-a society of the mothers and sisters, wives and daugh- ters, in service households, who know the life of the enlisted men and it's needs as societies of women who have nothing to do with the army cannot by any possibility know them. The leagues president is the widow of Brig Gen. John C. KeltOn. From a care full personal study of army post con ditions since the canteen was taken away she will tell congressman that the we'll meant action was "a dread ful mistake It is understood that her appeal to the congressman to cor rect that mistake will be earnestly supported by Mrs Chaffee. the wife of the chief of staff. The Army and Navy Journal says:
 Her efforts to effect a repeal of the existing law will command the inter est and sympathy of a vast majority of those who have carefully investi- tG of division and department comman- ders will soon be coming in and we confidently predict that they will re- peat the old story of drunkenness and increased desertions as a result of the abolition of the canteen. We predict also that when officers in active com mand of the troops make any recOm- mendation at all on the canteen ques- tion, an overwhelming majority of them will urge a return to the old system as a. means of promoting sobri- ety, improving discipline and discour- aging desertion. The views of officers on this question are entitled to con sideration. The officer is responsible for the condition of the men under his command, and his efficiency and pro- fessional usefulness are measured by their health. discipline, contentment and general behavior. Consequently when he declares that the canteen helps to promote temperance he speaks for his own legitimate interests as vel as for those of his men. He realizes that a sober and contented command is one of an officers strongest claims to advan cement
 Of course the testimony of the army officers in actual command of the en- listed men is entitled to congress- at tention; it should be conclusive and controlling. We don't feel at all sure that 1t will be.

The one hope is that the proportion of courag- eous members, willing to take personal risks for what they know to be right, may be larger than on the previous

 The very thought of the operating table and the knife strikes terror to her heart. As one woman expressed it, when told by her physician that she must undergo an operation. she felt that her death knell had sounded.
 Our hospitals are full of women who are there for ovarian or womb operations!
 It is quite true that these troubles may reach stage where an operation is the only resource, but such cases are much rarer than is generally supposed, because a great many women have been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's s Vegetable Compound after the doctors had said an operation must be per formed. In fact, up to the point where the knife must be used to secure instant relief, this medicine is certain to help
 The strongest and most grateful statements possible to make come from women who, by taking Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound, have escaped serious operations.
 Margrite Ryan, Treasurer of St. Andrews Society, Indianapolis, Ind, writes of her cure as follows:
 Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
 " I cannot find words to express my thanks for the good Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound did me.

A farmer tells that he ahs made a discovery that is of vast import ance to the farmers during a dry sea son, says the La Junta Democrat. He has found that by planting onions and potatoes in alternate rows, the onions became so strong that they brought tears to the eyes of the potatoes in such vast volumes that the roots of the vines were kept moist, and big crop raised in spite of the drought. The same farmer has a scheme for raising custard pies by crossing the egg plant with the milkweed.
