disappearing in the direction of the
kitchen, laden with dirty dishes and
tips: Soup. red snapper, indian rel

Mrs. lima potts

Frequent backache and distressing
pains, accompanied by offensive dis
charges and generally by irregular
and scanty menstruation indicate dis
placement or nerve degeneration Of
the womb and surrounding organs.
The question that troubles women
is how can a woman who has some fe-
male trouble bear healthy children?
Mrs. Anna Potts, of $40 Park Avenue,
Hot Springs, Ark, writes:
Ny Dear Mrs. Pinkham:--
During the early part of my married life
was delicate in health both my husband and
were very anxious for a child to bless our
home but had two miscarriages, and could
not carry child to maturity. A neighbor
who had been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound advised me to try it.
did so and soon felt that l was growing
stronger, my headaches and backaches left
me, had no more bearing-down pains, and
felt like a new woman. Within year
became the mother Of a strong, healthy
child, the ley of our home. Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound is certainly q
splendid remedy, and / wish every woman
who wants to become mother would try it. !"
Actual sterility in woman is very
rare. If any woman thinks she is ster-
lie, let her try Lydia E. Pink kham's
Vegetable Compound and write to Mrs.
Pnl<ham, Lynn, Mass. Her advice is
free to expectant or would be mothers.

A RACE AGAINST DEATH.

The story is more thrilling-and of
another kind-than Balzac's Country
Doctor"
Way up in the little mountain town
# Thermopolis, in Wyoming, lives a
pny stefan known hitherto to few save
his neiehhors. At mine near Nee
teetsee. 100 miles away, there was an
explosion. and number of men were
badly injured. The doctor at Thermo-
polls was asked by telegraph if he
would come and relieve the suffering
of the wounded. He instantly respond
ed:
Il am coming as rapidly as l can
get there"
The road from Thermopolis to Nee
teetsee is not paved-not even with
good Intentions It is a rough trail
around precipitous cliffs and through
6eep winding canyons. The only way
te go is by horseback and the journey
requires two days.
But DR.. Richards rode the 100
miles in II hours.
Fancy that ride! the discarte~rt -
it. It was made at breakneck speed,
changing horses as soon as one ami
NAL was jaded.
But men were suffering-dying per.
haps.
Happily. says the Salt Lake Her
aid, which tells the story, the doctor
arrived in time to relieve the dis
tress
1t was wild ride against death.
And heroism won it.
The Herald writer uses the occasion
to pay noble tribute to the profess
sion of which Er. Richards is worthy
member The compliment is well de-
served by the men of medicine who
count all but loss if by any means
they may save some.
Only the other day a brave-hearted
physician crawled under an engine at
imminent danger that he might use
his hypodermic syringe to ease the
horrible torture of the dying engineer
pinned to his death.
Honor and praise to such men

THE WOMEN OF WEiBERG.

At the + OF of the hill Weiherg, on
along the bank of the Neokar, were
gathered long time ago two armies,
and here battle was f ught between
the two great Germans, Konrad and
Welt
Very fierce was the fighting, but at
last victory fell to Konrad, and news
was sent to the ancient castle on the
high hill above the battlefield, that it
must surrender at once.
A great company had assembled in
the castle. There were soldiers guard
ing the fortress. and many men from
the surrounding country who had taxi
en- refuge here with their wives and
little children. Now with the message
from Konrad demanding surrender.
was also sent very kind offer He
said that although the men in the
fortress were all to be taken prison
ers, the women were to go away in
peace, and that each one would be
allowed to carry on her back the
treasure she most highly priced.
Konrad's mighty army drew up in
iine, leaving passage for the women,
from the walled citadel. and at the
head of the first column was Konrad
himself, who, glancing toward the
castle, suddenly saw the gates thrown
open, and strange looking procession
start down the hill.
The whole army now turned to look
and truly it was a marvellous process
son, for when it came nearer long
line OF women was seen, and each
one carried man on her back. Her
husband. her father. her son, brother,
or friend. each had taken Konrad at
his word and had brought her dearest
treasure away on her back
Some of the men in Konrad's army
were very angry, and considered that
an unfair advantage had been taken
of their chiefs generosity, but Kor-
rad admired the spirit and good feel
ing of the women of his country, and
rot only cave the men their liberty.
but allowed the women to go back and
fetch what wealth they had left be-
hind.

The Hattiesburg Progress prints a
story from Gulfpcrt which is lone on
the quarantine guards who had been
set to watch a certain house where a
"suspicious case" was located. The
suspicious case happened to be a
small boy who rebelled at confine-
mont and who quietly slipped away
and went grabbing. AS he returned
tc ward the house the guards met him
and told him not to enter as there
was very dangerous yellow fever
case inside.
