Zeal AnImus ct Movement Against
Remedies DeserVedly Popular.
An adroit but plausible scheme by
which it is hoped to prejudice the sale
Of proprietary medicines is the propo-
sition to prohibit the sale of any rem
edy which contains poison" unless
each package or bottle is expressly Ia
beled Poison" Such bills are also
well designed To impose upon men who
have no familiarity with the subject
matter. The pretense OF protecting
the public health put forth in support
Of such bills is generally the merest
subterfuge; and whenever you hear a
demand for a law of this kind it
originates with those who have
a direct pecuniary interest to serve by
destroying the sale of proprietary rem
edies.
Some Of the best and most widely
used remedies in the world contain
some one ingredient which, il taken
in sufficient quantities, might be poi
sonous, and yet the preparation as a
whole.is not poisonous at all. Opium,
for instance, is used in small quaint
ties in many of the best cures for
coughs, collie, diarrhea, etc, In tooth
ache drops and in almost all liniments.
To require such medicines to be false
ly labeled poison" would be merely a
cunning device to alarm the public
and thus bring about the destruction
of the sale of those remedies, and in
directly to compel people to procure
the medicine they want by the more
expensive method of consulting ply
stefan and getting his prescription. In
other words, it is an effort to prevent
them from getting cheaply the RENE
dies which they and their fathers be-
fore them have used for many years

When Nelson shivered.

The English papers tell a new
story Of Nelson. one which is not par,
ticularly appropriate to these days of
friendliness between England and
France. Nelson was talking one day
with Mrs. Swinburne, of Hamsterly,
and the conversation turned upon
Frenchmen. Il never see French
man, Mrs. Swinburne," said Nelson,
without shivering from head to
foot" AS the relator Of the anecdote
says, any one who has seen dog
quivering when restrained from fall
ing upon familiar enemy will ap-
preciate the feeling that made Nelson
SILVER. Fighting was not mere pro-
fession with Nelson. He felt as he
fought.

Dear Mrs Pinkham:-

When physician tells woman, suf-
fering from ovarian or womb trouble,
that an operation is necessary it, of
course, frightens her.
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 k1en 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. Pihkham' 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. An
drew's Society, Hotel English, Indian

AFRIcA's "sPIRAL" RAILROAD.
Many Unusual Difficulties Had to be
Surmounted,


In the construction of the Amabele-
Butterworth railway, in Cape Colony,
unusual difficulties had to be sur
mounted, according to the Pail Mall
Gazette, and the result is, from an
engineering point of view, one of the
most remarkable railways in exist
ence. After passing through the Kei
Hills the line winds round another
hill, and then, at lower level, goes
under its own track. This portion of
the railway is known as the spiral. .
At another point the line travels along
the bank of the Mangulu river for
two miles, and then doubles back for
a mile and half, so that, after Gov
ering three and half miles, the train
is really only half mile to the good.
This section is called the "zigzag,' -
and, with the spiral, is unique in
South Africa All along the Kei
heights the route is through cuttings
or on entertainments Some idea of
its extraordinary character may be
formed from the statement tat in
eighteen miles the line falls, or rises,
TO the extent of ], 500 feet.
