Mrs IAfarme~ 0AArs. Ella Lee

An eminent physician says that
"Women are not truthful; they will lie
to their physician" This statement
should be qualified; women do tell the
truth, but not the whole truth, to a
male physician, but this Is only in re-
gard to those painful and troublesome
disorders peculiar to their sex.
There can be no more terrible ordeal
to a delicate, sensitive, refined woman
than to be obliged to answer certain
questions when those questions are
asked, even by her family physician.
This Is especially the case with un-
married women.
Is 1t any wonder, then, that women
continue to suffer and that doctors
fail to cure female diseases when they
cannot get the proper information to
work on?
This is the reason why thousands and
thousands of women are now CORE
spending with Mrs. Pinkham. To her
they can and do give every symptom,
so that she really knows more about
the true condition of her patients,
through her correspondence with them
than the physician who personally
questions them.
Ifyou suffer from any form of trouble
peculiar to women, write at once to
Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass, and she
will advise you free of charge.
The fact that this great boon, which
is extended freely to women by Mrs.
Pinkham, is appreciated, the thou
vaads Of letters received by her prove.
Many such grateful letters as the fol-
lowing are constantly pouring in.

Troubles Of a Hostess

A lady said recently: 81 wish some
body would make guests understand
that the hostess is the only one with
the right to run a party Twice re-
Gently l have been at informal after
noon companies where some guest
has broken up the gathering by insist
ing that refreshments be served at an
hour to suit herself
"On one such occasion we were in
vited for bridge and the lady who ask
ed for refreshments early skipped out
after she had eaten her luncheon to
keep an appointment with a Dress
maker. OF course we were left one
short. The hostess was annoyed and
all the rest of us cross, so we put on
our wraps and went home.
'At another affair, where guest In
sisted on interfering with the arrange
ment, the hostess finally exclaimed:
This is my party and I'll have 1t the
way l want it, And she did, byt all
hostesses have not the nerve to quell
such disturbance. "-Nebraska State

Akers Corbridge, employed in a West
Side real estate office, entered a res
taurant in Madison street basement
last Friday evening. hung his overcoat
on a hook. fastened to the WALL sat
down at table, and ate a hearty
meal.
When he rose from the table he
went to get his coat
On the hook where he had hung
1t he found disreputable old gar
ment with greasy collar, hole in
one elbow, torn place in the back
and half the buttons missing.
Thrusting his hand into an outside
pocket he found couple of folded pa
pers.
He took them out and opened them.
One was a notification that the own
er had been drawn on a jury, and the
other was q dun for $3.50 from a shoe
merchant.
1t was his overcoat, all right.-Chi-

Jobs Patience outcIassed Here.

One of the best stories of the sea-
son is told by Senator Blackburn of
Kentucky. A number of years ago,
he says, there was an old fellow who
drove a bus for one of the hotels at
Louisville. and he could "cuss" by
note. One morning the weather was
cold and frosty the streets not in the
best condition, and the old man had
considerable difficulty In getting a
frisky young mare to do her part in
pulling the bus. The old driver ripped
out oath after oath, and one of the
passengers, a clerical gentleman, en-
tered a protest, telling the driver to
be patient and that the skittish young
mare would do her duty.
"P-p-p-atient, h-h-hell," suffered
the old man. "G-g-git up, d-d-damn
y-y-you!"
Don't swear, my good friend" put
in the man with the sanctified look.
Job was a good man and a man of
patience"
"W-w-who t-t-the hell d-d-did he
d-d-drive f-f-for?"
This was more than the protest
ing passenger could stand, and he
was forced" adds the Kentuckian. "to
join in the laugh"

HOW TO TELL A FISHERMAN.

Expert Declares Genuine One Always
Drops His &C."
According to L. M. Miller. president
OF the Commercial club, says a Kan
sas City special to the Philadelphia
Record, the true fisherman always
drops his final "g" in talking. That is
an infallible test, in his mind, and he
says he has never known it to fail. He
was discoursing in the Commercial
club rooms recently with Secretary
Glendenning, another ardent devotee
of the rod
Il don't know why this should be a
true test" said Mr.. Miller, except
that a fisherman must have an ele-
ment of laziness about him and the
man who doesn't take the trouble to
pronounce the final e. to his words
may be accused of the same thing.
But you listen to the man who says he
is going fishing and the other fellow
who says he is 'goin' fishin'' and you
will see that the latter is the man
who comes back with a good string of
fish, while the former will be spending
his time talking about how they got
away from him."

TREES THAT GIVE COCOA.
Coooanut Palm and Cacao Tree Both
Handsome Specimens.


Handsome Specimens.
Many of us who use cocoa and
oocoanuts daily do not know that they
are obtained from two distinct trees.
The cocoanut palm is the fruit of
tall and graceful palm tree, whereas
the cocoa, or more properly cacao, is
the powdered seed of a small and
handsome tree, bearing no resem-
blance to the cocoa palm. In fact.
the cacao tree Is closely allied to the
linden or lime trees. No one who has
ever seen the peculiar appearance pre-
sented by the cacao tree will be likely
to mistake 1t for anything else. The
tree itself grows to a height of TWEEN
ty or twenty-five feet, with a rather
smooth and slender trunk, thick,
bushy and symmetrical top and hand
some broad, oval leaves of deep pur-
pie or bronze color. Instead OF grow
ing at the end of the branches or
twtgs, as do most blossoms, the flow
ers bud out directly from the bark of
the limbs and trunk. The flowers are
small and insignificant, but the fruit,
shaped like cucumber, grows to
large size, sometimes eight or ten
feet in length and three or four inches
across. 1t is brilliantly colored or
arge, red or yellow, and under favor.
able conditions fairly covers the tree,
