Going through the hospitals In our
large cities one Is surprised to find such
n large proportion of the patients lying
on those snow-white beds women
and girls, who arc either awaiting
or recovering from serious operations.
Why should this be the case? Sim
ply because they have neglected them
selves. Female troubles are certainly
on the increase among the women of
this country-they creep upon them
unawares, but every one of those
patients in the hospital beds had plenty
of warning in that bearing down feel
ing, pain at left or right of the abdomen,
nervous exhaustion, pain in the small
of the back. dizziness, flatulency, dis
placements of the organs or irregular
tiles All OF these symptoms are indi-
cations of IN unhealthy condition of
the female organs, and IL not needed
the penalty has to be paid by n danger

manifest themselves, do not drag along
until you are obliged to go to the hos
pital and submit to an operation
but remember that Lydia IL. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound has saved
thousands of women from surgical
operations.
When women are troubled with ir-

beginning that his father would new

Leigh. How could his father know
that she was the sweetest, the most
refined little lady in the world, for
he would not listen. The fact that
she was a farmers daughter had set

The Judge closed the door with a

GLlMPSES OF ROTHSCHILD.
His Fortune Was Heavy Burden to
Baron Alphonse, French Banker.

His Fortune Was Heavy Burden to
Baron Alphonse, French Banker.
The late Baron Alphonse de Roths-
child of Paris, head of the French
branch of the famous banking house
and governor Of the Bank Of France,
was man of great culture as we'll as
a worthy representative of his family
as a financier, says the New York
Times He was also interested in
sports, particularly racing.
There have been two attacks upon
the French Rothschilds. The first was
in 1913, when the father of Baron AL.
phonse, being besieged by peasant So
cialists, received them and offered to
give his visitors what was due should
he divide his fortune among the PEG,
pie. He calculated that they should re-
ceive francs each. The peasants left
the old baron in peace.
The second attack was upon Baron
Alph0nse. 1t took a more cowardly
form. In September, 1895, IL letter was
sent to him containing an explosive
that would so off when the letter was
u.
and the letter was opened by clerk q
Polish Jew. NJ. Jodkowitz. He was
thrown down by the defamation, but not
seriously injured. Curiously enough,
NJ. Jodkowitz was at the time in charge
OF Baron Alphonse de Rothschild's
charitable disbursements, which bene
fitted the deserving Of all faiths.
Notwithstanding all his wealth and
influence, Baron Alphonse was an I'M
happy man. He found pleasure in his
family life, in art and in music but the
care Of his great fortune was a heavy
burden. A visitor once found the bank
er in such a moody fit that he asked if
he were i'll.
81 am not i'll; am crazy" was the
reply.
81 will never believe that you are
crazy until 1 see you throwing your
money out of the window said the
visitor
"Ah." said the baron, exhibiting a
threatening letter. 81 am crazy be-
cause l do not throw my money out OF
the window"
The baron had one strong supersti-
ton which he could not overcome, and
, that was that the number 13 was un-
lucky. When he was married he chose
as his residence tie hotel il the Rue
st. George. in Paris, which had been
the property of II. pescatore. The res
idence bore the number Is. When
the baron saw the number he refused
to enter the house until it was removed.
When letters came addressed with the
old number he refused to open them.
and he offered $1,000 francs to the nu-
nicipality, to be distributed among the
poor, if the number were changed. The
offer was accepted, and al bis" was
substituted
The baron lost an eye in 1898 while
on hunting expedition through the
carelessness of one of his guests. Be-
ing a strikingly handsome man, he felt
the Disagreement keenly and said he
would rather have had the top Of his
lead blown off.

met Alice Leigh at friends homo,
while in college, and that a friend
ship had sprung up between them
which ripened into love as they met
from time to time. A story to which
his father would not listen.
Helen was never strong, and as
the summer days came Judge Blake
decided to take her to the country
for month. Good by, Roddie," the
girl said the morning she went away
If l see Alice maybe I can show
father what nice girl she is"
The morning was bright and clear
and the Judge and Helen started out
for their usual drive. These drives
were bringing roses to Helens
cheeks and helping the Judge to feel
younger There had been no chance
to help poor Rodney's cause thus
far, and this morning, as they rode
along, Helen was trying to find some
wa. to speak to her father about it,
when suddenly from around a sharp
bend an auto came upon them and
their usual quiet horse, taking
fright, Sprang into the ditch and ran.
All would have been we'll, even then,
for the judge was an experienced
horseman, but as he gave the reins a
sharp pull one broke, leaving the
judge powerless. His mind worked
quickly, and, taking Helen in his
arms, he Sprang. AS he struck the
ground in the ferns and weeds by
the roadside, feminine scream rent
the air, and young lady of perhaps
20 years sprang forward and clasped
Helen from the judges arms. And
Helen was safe and none the worse
for the encounter.
When he came to himself once
more he was lying in a darkened
room, which smelled of the roses
hlossoming meath the window, and
the same young lady was sitting by
his side.

Happened and IL piled h nurse and
Helen with questions. He learned he
was laid up with a sprained ankle
and was thrown upon the hospitality
of Mr. Henry Leigh and his daugh-

rey's confession of love did the na3ne
bring to him.
AS the days went by Rodney re-
ceiyed these two letters:
My Dear Son: THE ankle is do
ing as we'll as could be expected. AS
I wrote you we were marvellously
fortunate in being brought to the
home of Mr.. Leigh. His daughter
Alice is enc Of the sweetest of girls.

Saturday night found Alice and
Helen at the station, and half an
hour later Rodney was standing be-
fore his father, Alice Leigh's hand in
his. Father, allow me to present
your future daughter-in-law. You
remember l spoke to you Of our en-
gagement some time ago.
For moment the judge was
speechless and, possibly, the least
bit chagrined, and then he gave them
as fond a blessing as even Helen
could wish.-Boston Post.

information Adams went his way to
the Denver sleeper.
Finding Winton in his section, por-
ing over blueprint map and maxi
ing notes thereon after the manner of
a man hard at work, Adams turned
back to the smoking compartment.
Now for Mr.. Morton p. Adams the
salt of life was a joke, harmless or
otherwise, as the tree might fall. So,
during the long afternoon which he
wore out in solitude there grew up in
him keen desire to see what would
befall If these two whom he had so
protesquely misrepresented each to the
other should come together in the
pathway of acquaintanceship.
But how to bring them together was
a problem which refused to be solved
until chance pointed the way. Since
the Limited" had lost another hour
during the day, there was a rush for
the dining car as soon as the announce
ment of its taking on had gone through
the train. Adams and Winton were
of this rush, and so were the mem
bers of Mr.. Somerville Darrah's party.
In the seating the party was sepa-
rated, as room at the crowded tables
could be found; and Miss Virginia S
fate gave her the unoccupied seat at
one of the duet tables, opposite a
young man with steadfast gray eyes
and Van Dyck beard.
Winton was equal to the emergency,
or thought he was. Adams was
still within call, and he beckoned him,
meaning to propose an exchange of
seats. But the Bostonian misunder-
stood willfully.
Most happy, I'm sure" he said,
coming instantly to the rescue. Miss
Carteret, my friend signals his di-
lemma. May present him?"
Virginia smiled and gave the re-
quired permission in a word. But for
Winton self-possession flew shrieking.
"Ah-er-I hope you know Mr.
Adams we'll enough to make allow
ances for his-for his" He broke
down piteously and she had to come to
his assistance.
For his imagination?" she suggest
ed. II do, indeed; we are quite old
