LOSS OF APPETITE
Colo Swoat5, Twitchins Nerves and Weakness Cured by Or. Wilians'
 Pink Pus.

Nature punishes every infraeiion of her laws. and careless habits easily lead 10 the condition descr bed by Mir. Vii. ham Browne, of No. i0lg Lincoln street, St Joseph, Mo. Mr. Browne k an ex. pert timer in the employ of the National Biscuit Go. He gives the following ac- count ot a trying experience:
 :" In the spring of 1902" ha says. while l was regularly working at my trade, l grew somewhat careless in my habits ot eating and drinking. and finally found that my appetite was ficklc, a bad taste fingered ln my mouth. my nerves tWltched and were beyond my control. my kidneys were ont of order and cold sweats would break out over my body at odd times. Perhaps, while stood talk Ing With some one, this trembling of the limbs. and profuse sweating. and severe chill would seize me. became alarmed at my condition and. having read an endorsement of Dr. Williams Plnk Pills, got box and began to use them. They helped me at once. After l had used one box the twitching of the nerves, the trouble with the stomach and the cold sweats stopped and have not reappeared, aud my appetite is good. have told all my friends that Dr. Vii. hams Pink Pills cured me and recon. mend them to everybody"
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills cured Mir. Browne because nothing can strengthen the nerves except good rich. rcd blood and Dr. Williams Pink Pills actually make new blood. They don act on the bowels. They don't bother with mere symptoms. They drive from the blood the cause of anamia, indigestion, ner- yous disorders. general weakness and the troubles of growing girls and women.
 The pills are guaranteed to be free from opates or harmful drugs. Sold by all druggists. or by the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y.

 First of all, led the victim to a tree, and, having secured him with rope and halter, l proceeded, with the help of an assistant. to put on the harness. Goodness, how that buffalo did kick He not only kicked hard and often. but remarkably straight as well. and we had to move with consid. erable agility to prevent his planting his feet on Us even oftener than he did. But al last the deed was done the harness on his back, the bridle on his head and the bit in his mouth. Then. while l took a firm hold on the reirs, my assistant united him What did he do? Well. to be frank, he didn't do anything-at first He stood quite steady in his tracks. and a slight application of the whip did not seem to even change his trend of thought I applied it bit harder. ana he gave me his attention.

When physician tells a 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 kncll had sounded.
 Our hospitals are full of women who are there for ovarian or womb operationsl
 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 great many women have been cured by Lydia F.. Pinkhams 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 10 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 F.. Pink hams Vegetable Compound, have escaped serious operations.
 Margrite Ryan, Treasurer of St. An drew's Society, Hotel English, Indian apolis, Ind. writes of her cure as follows: Dear Mrs Pinkham:-
 |" cannot find words to express my thanks for the good Lydia F. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound did mo. The doctor said could not get well unless l had an operation for ovarian and female troubles I knew could not stand the strain of an operation and made up my mind l would be an invalid for life

CHOICE OF A DRESS DESIGN
A STYLE Suited to the Figure Should
Be the Selection Of the Pros
pective Wearer.

In choosing the design of gown great
care should be taken to select style
which is suited to the figure; in the lack
of this care lies the cause Of many q
woman's bad taste in dress, says Har-
per's Bazaar. For slight figure de-
sign with plenty of fulness across the
chest and bust should be chosen, and at
the same time the direction of the lines
of trimming should be considered. A
broad yoke, reaching well out over the
shoulders, adds much to narrow
chested woman's appearance, while long
lines of up-and-6own tucks or bands of
trimming are the best choice for broad
stout figure.
In the same way the skirt pattern
should be thought out with regard to
the figure. A plain seven-gore skirt
with no shirring or bayadere stripes or
tucks, and with rufl1es only around the
foot of the skirt, is best for stout
woman, while shirred yokes, tucked and
ruffled skirts, suit the thin woman to per-
lection. This years models show two
very definite styles which may be COM
pared. There is the revival of the
flounced style of so years ago, and the
close-itting habit cut Of skirt with full
length tucks or pleats or bands of trim
ming. The design should also be consid-
cred with regard to the material to be
used. Flounces are suited to the soft
gauzes. while for the tailored effects q
wise woman chooses a material which
is firm.

Beecher's Wit.

Noted not only for his eloquence, but
for his ability to meet every difficulty
and overcome it, Henry Ward Beecher
was a wonderful orator. On one
memorable occasion, in the midst Of
an impassioned speech, some one at
tempted to interrupt him by suddenly
growing like cock. 1t was done to
perfection; number of people laughed
in spite of themselves, and Beecher's
friends felt that in q moment the
whole effect Of the meeting, and the
thrilling appeals, might collapse. The
orator. however. was equal to the oc-
casion. He stopped, listened till the
growing ceased. and then, with look
Of surprise on his face, pulled out his

my watch is only at ten. But there
can't be any mistake about it. The

a SONG or KINDRED.


Hark! how the strong seas shout
70 the pines on the mountainside:
ing. brothers. sing! for the winds are
out,
And the path Of their flight 10 wide!
We leap. at flood Of the tide,
TO the base Of your rooted rock.
Feel you the thrill as the deep caves I'LL?
Hear you the breakers shock?
Hail. brothers. hail!
Send your song on the western gale.
Loud is the wind in every tree,
But you alone can voice the tone
OF the full-throated sea.
From you alone can our echoes ring.
Sing, brothers, sing!'
Hark! how the great pines cry
From the inland forest places,
Sending the mountain-land's reply
Out to the wild sea-spaces,
Where the mad wave swells and races
Under the tide-wind's hand.
HAL. all hail! We swing to the gale,
And shrill to your brave command :.
Rock, rock, and chime!
Back we fling your iterant rime
In a rush of harmony!
Loud Is the wind in every tree,
But we alone can harp the tone
OF the deep-brcasted sea.
From us alone can your echoes fall!
Call, brothers. call!'

KENTUCKY HUNTING STORY
In Which Il Described the Alarming
1tsdicaments of One q
tie Huaters.

In Novembers golden hunting ee1.
son every man who has ever carried .
gun has hunting story to tell. Good
stories Of this kind were flying about
in Crescent Hill family circle not
long ago. says the Louisville Courier
Journal. and the young man who had
ably played the flute during the even
ing had his interesting bit Of woodland
experience to contribute.
Down in central Kentucky, where I
ilve." he said, "a lot. Of us went out
coon hunting one night The best
dogs in the neighborhood were owned
by colored man; and as he was also
an expert coon hunter himself. we
didn't feel satisfied that the expedi.
ton would be a success unless We
had black Jim and his dogs along with
us.
unfortunately, Jim was addicted
to drink, as the boys expressed it.
and on the night in question he had
been a trifie too deep in his cups. He
was able to go with us, however, as
we'll as anxious, and so he started.
It was not long before Jim's good dogs
traced a coon. The coon worked out
on a long limb, and the question was
who was to climb that tree and urge
the coon to come down, or drop OF?
Black Jim was a famous climber, and,
as he seemed to be getting more like
himself every minute, we urged him to
perform the difficult feat.
"Jim scrambled and shambled up the
tree trunk all right, and he crawled out
on the limb halfway with equal sue
cess. Then we heard his voice drawl-
ing out in most distressed and anx-
ious tones: sMoov' dat rock. moov' dat
rock, moov' dat rock!' We flashed the
lantern on him, to discover that poor.
unsteady Jim had dropped around on
the under side of the limb. He was
clutching the limb desperately, making
strenuous but unavailing struggles to
get on the upper side Of 1t again, and
also cycling the ground with agoniz-
ing apprehension, feeling that he soon
must let go. 'Moov' dat rock. moov'
dat rock, nnoov' dat rock!' he continued
calling, while we helplessly and hard'
heartedly all stood there and laughed.
There wasn't any rock in sight, that
we could see, and poor Jim in few Sec
onds came crashing down. He was not
hurt, however, and the coon still perche&
on the end Of the limb. j can't re-
member whether we got the coon OF
not, but we got relishable new phrase
for the hunting field: 'Moov' dat rock
moov' dat rock!'"
