That rheumatism can be cured has

That Mrs. Clawson had Rheumatism

cured. Dodd's Kidney Pills did it.
Mrs. Clawson tells the story of her
cure as follows:

I suffered untold agony and in Au-

could not ride to the grave.

Lay Of the Hen.

or robin, and blackbird, and linnet,
spring poets write page after page:
their praises are sounded each minute
by prophet, soothsayer and sage; but
not since the stars sang together, not
since the creation of men, has any
one drawn a goose feather in praise
OF the patient old hen.
All honor and praise to the singing
that cheers UP the wildwood in the
spring; the old recollections oft bring
ing JOY, childhood, and that sort OF
thing; but dearer to me than the twit-
ter OF robin, or martin, or wren, is
that motherly cluck when a litter of
chickens surround the old hen.
And her mid-winter cackle, how
CHEEKY, above the new nest she has
made; it notifies hearts all a-weary,
another fresh egg has been laid. And
when the old bird wakes heavy, and
aged, and lazy, and fat, well cooked
with light dumplings and gravy,
there's great consolation in that.

Then You Won't Catch Cold, Says

The trolley cold, which is the result
Of exercise followed by ride in

is also the subway cold, produced by
the same causes and just as violent in
its uncomfortable effects.

the fact that there is a draft blowing
on him. Just keep that in mind and
there is no danger.
''But forget it for a moment and

any man who follows my advice, sits
tight and thinks Of the draft all the
time that it is blowing on him will

"Couldock was a peculiar old man,

Some Of the Things They Order for
Luncheon.
There was a woman's missionary
meeting in a Brooklyn church and the
audience adjourned to Fulton street

began to buzz, the walters lost their
heads and order gave way to chaos.
1t was not a multiplicity of orders
that caused total route Of the wait

Here are few sample orders that
the women gave:
Strawberry shortcake, German pan

Surprising Mr.. Depew.

Mr.. Chauncey Depew, the American
senator, once dropped in to see a
friend at the latter's private residence,
and when he left an inquisitive lad,
who had been playing in the next
room, asked eagerly:
''Who is that man, papa?"
HE is the gentleman your mother
and I were talking about this morn
Ing" was the reply, ''Mr. Depew, the
greatest story-teller I ever heard"
A few days later the visitor came
again. The boy was standing on the

Mr.. Depew, who is very fond of chill

On the Subject Of Eating.

Eating not pleasant, not an elevat'
ing subject? No subject under the
blue canopy, no subject to be found
between the covers of the latest en-
cyclopaedia, is more worthy of the
deepest and the highest and most sus'
tanned thoughts of man. And probably
no other subject receives half the at
tention which is given to eating. Moth.
ing has been more important in the
progress of the race than the additions
to the variety of mans food. In his
primitive state, a mere clam eater, he
was hardly superior to the beasts that
perish. When he became a hunter,
seeking the strong meats of wild
game, he developed new qualities, ex'
panded Intellectually and gained in
energy, enterprise and endurance
Then came the pastoral and agricul'
tural age, with an acquired taste fol-
vegetation. Every advance has been
on the heels of something new to eat
To-day the teeth of man declare him
to be omnivorous, though vegetable
food is still heavy tax on his powers
Of digestion. He lacks those multiple
gastric arrangements by the aid OF
which the COW, for example, is able tc
subsist on vegetable food alone. This
lack Senior Santos will discover and
deplore long before he shall acquire
that meditative cud, the mastlcation
Of which gives to the COW the serenity
and ren0se which is the object of the
Spaniard's grazing.-Atlantic.

is his beard. This blood is fresh and
bright-not such as would come from

him around the neck. My lord, this

jerk that killed your son. All, the

CHAPTER XVIII.
The Packet Of Lord Genlis.

The Packet Of Lord GenIis.
Martha Bashfort was both powerful
and active, and it was not long before
she was standing upon the ledge and
bending over the body of Capt Will
ford Osred.
"He is dead, my lord!" she shouted
back to Lord Genlis, whose head was
visible to her as he peered over the
brink of the cliff. "The fall must have
killed him instantly"
"Ah!'' thought Clarence Darrell,
now for the first time aware who had
descended to the ledge, cit is the wife.
of Neil Bashfort-the woman Martha!
Will she, too attempt to come further
down."
He retired into the rear Of the little
cave and remained on the alert.
Martha, however, made no move
ment to descend, but, leaning as far
over the ledge as she could, adjusted
the spy-glass to- her eye and gazed
down among the rocks and sea-scum
far below.
Clarence could see the larger end
of the spy-glass protruding downward
below the upper rim or lip of the
| cave.
"It is his body" muttered Martha,
as the powerful lenses of the glass
seemed to bring Bashfort's headless
corpse near to her eye. 1t is his head
less body, and it lies, breast upward,
| across the body Of one of those sail
ors! All, what terrible retribution!
But where is the head?"
The head had been thrown far off
into the sea. Martha supposed such
| was true after she had turned the
| glass, in vain, in every direction.
, She did not regret the death of her
ruffian husband, for he had always
been tyrant to her.
| Gle is dead" she muttered, "and
there let him rot! He would have
killed me, or should have killed him,
in the end. But can see nothing Of
the poor young lady's body. Is it pos
sible that, after striking this ledge, it
it may have bounded so far off into
, the air as to fall into the sea-"
! She shouted this suspicion to Lord
Genlis. much to the satisfaction of
| Clarence.
II care not what has become of her
body!" was the selfish and brutal re-
ply of Lord Genlis. II want the body
of my SOM"
Martha now made kind of sling
of the end of the rope, after throwing
away that part which had beheaded
/Bashfort-and having adjusted this
sling to Capt. Osred's body, reascend-
ed to the top of the cliff.
She and Lord Genlis' then drew the
body up, and bearing it between them
carried it into the house and placed it
upon the bed in Helen Beauclair's late
| prison.
'sIt was to have been his bridal
chamber, and this his nuptial couch!"
| groaned Lord Genlis. "Oh, how ter
ribly have ended all my plansr Helen
Beauclair is dead, Bashfort is dead,

more experience in treating female ills
than any living person,
Over one hundred thousand cases OF
female diseases come before Mrs. Pink
ham every year, some personally,
others by mail, and this has been go
ing on for twenty years, day after day.
Surely women are wise in seeking
advice from a woman of such expert
ence, especially when it is absolutely
free.
Mrs. Pinkham never violates the con-
fidence of women, and every testimO-
NAL letter published is done SO with
the written consent or request of the
writer, in order that other sick women
may be benefited as they have been.
Mrs. Fred Seydel. of 412 North 54th
Street, West Philadelphia, Pa, writes:
Dear Mrs Pinkham:-
"Over year ago [ wrote you letter asking
advice, as l had female ills and could not
carry child to maturity. I received your
kind letter of instructions and followed your
sequence, but have a beautiful baby girl. I
wish every suffering woman i'll the land would
write you for advice, as you have done SO
much for me-"
Just as surely as Mrs. Seydel was
cured, will Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound cure every
woman suffering from any form Of
female ills.
No other medicine in all the world
has such record of cures of female
troubles as has Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound. Therefore no
prudent woman will accept any substi-
tute which a druggist may offer.
If you are sick, write Mrs. Pinkham,
Lynn, Mass, for special ad=ice. It il
