restore tho family fortune. They
argued that the medicine which was
so good for their woman friends and
neighbors was equally good for tho
women Of the whole world.
The Pinkhams had no money, and
little credit. Their 6rst laboratory
herbs were STEPPED on the stove,
gradually filling 2 gross Ct botties. bottle
It. for always before they had given
it away freely. They hired job
printer to run on some pemphlets
setting forth the merits Of the medi-
cine, now called Lydia q. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, and these were
distributed by the Pinkham sons IN
Boston, New York. and Brooklyn.
The wonderful curative properties Of
the medicine were, to q great extent,
self-advertising, for whoever used It
recommended Il to others, and the de-
mand gradually increased.
In 1877, by combined efforts the fam
lily had saved enough money to COM
mence newspaper advertising and from
that time the growth and success OF
the enterprise were assured, until to-
dav Lydia e. Pinkham and her Vege-
table Compound have become house
hold words everywhere, and many
tons Of roots and herbs are used annn-
ally in it's manufacture.
lydia E. Pinkham herself did not
live to see the great success OF this
work. She passed to her reward years
ago, but not till she had provided
means for continuing her work %
effectively as she could have done It
herself.
During her long and eventful expe-
rience she was ever methodical in her
work and she was always careful to pre-
serve a record of every case that came to
her attention. The case Of every sick
woman who applied to her for advice
and there were thousands-received
careful study, and the details, includ-
ing symptoms, treatment and results
were recorded for future reference, and
to-day these records, together with
hundreds of thousands made since, are
available to sick women the world
over, and represent q vast collabora-
ton of information regarding the
treatment Of .woman,s Ills, which for
authenticity and accuracy can hardly
be equaled in any library in the
world. I & gf .45 s4.sftF
With Lydia E. Pinlham worked her
daughter in ; law, the present Mrs.
Pinkham. She was carefully instructed
in ell her hard-won knowledge, and
for years she assisted her In her vast
correspondence. 81
To her hands naturally fell the
direction Of the work when its otfgina
tor. passed away. For nearly twenty
five years she has continued 1t, and
nothing In the work shows when the
first Lydia e Pinkham dropped her
pen, and the present Mrs. Pinkham,
now the mother Of q large family, took
1t up. With women assistants, some q
capable as herself, the present Mrs.
Pinkham continues this greatwork, and
probably from the Office Of no other
person have so many women been nd.

CURIOUS NAMING CUSTOM.
one That Has Obtained in = Rhode
Island Family Tor More Than
q Century.

A most peculiar custom OF giving
each child q name that spells the
same either forward or backward has
prevailed for more than q century in
the family Of Harrah B. Reynolds,
member Of the American team in the
international checker match held in
Boston last spring. Mr.. Reynolds him
self. says the Providence Journal, has
. peculiar name, which may be read
with the same facility from either
end, and has perpetuated the name,
which was borne by his grandfather
and father, by giving it to his son.
who Is thus in the fourth generation
OF the name.
The custom originated with Asa
Reynolds, who was born in 1859, and
married Hannah Wells. Noticing that
the Christian names of each of them
spelled the same forward and back
ward, they decided to give their chill
dren names with the same popularity.
They had IL children, six boys and six
girls, all Of whom lived to be mar
ried. The names inflicted on them
were the following, IN the order of
their birth: Hannah, Asa, Emme, Iri,
Aziza, Zerez, Ava, Alta, Alila, Numun
and Harrah. The custom they thus
began has since been continued in the
family.
It is easy to imagine that this fam
lily of singular names might be ex-
perts in forming WORDS and sentences
with the same characteristic. Mr..
Reynolds gave as the result OF his
own effort the sentence: "Red root put
up % ORDER" which is, perhaps. the
longest known sentence in the Tan
guage spelling and reading the same
from either end.

Counting peath.

Not long ago a pedestrian on lower
Broadway, New York.. witnessed a
blood-curdling sight. A fagpole upon
the top Of oneof the tallest metropolitan
buildings had rotted and was ordered
down by the board of health. For a long
time no steeplejack could be found who
was willing to shin up the pole and do
the work. The use of the customary
staging was. Of course. out of the ques-
tion because of the condition Of the staff.
Finally, young Hazen Hughes. steeple-
jack Of international reputation, ac-
cepted the risk. Up he climbed with his
saws and tackle while Broadway craned
its neck and thrilled. He cut of four
foot section from the top OF the pole, and
was saving away at the other section
, when part of the tackle in which he was
slung gave way. The jack fell down.
wards hanging by his legs. The crowd
below surged in frenzied horror. Az
they looked, however, the isteeplejack
righted himself and went calmly on with
his work. Technical World Magazine.

500 Road TO Tap Various
Towns Between Thief River
Fails and Duluth.

G. II. Kelley, Of the corps Of engfn-
eers, In the employ Of the 500 line Is
now engaged at surveying new line
for the proposed extension Of that rail-
way system from Thief River Falls to
Duluth. He Is I'm advance of the
party much Of the time, getting gem
eral idea of the country through which
they will pass, and communicating at
intervals with the party in regard to
the topography of the country.
It is said that the line will follow
the continental divide quite closely.
According to present plans the line
will cross the Mississippi river about
IA miles north of Grand Rapids, the
Leech river, near Gould postofiice, and
from there the line will follow, up the
north side of the Turtle river, cross
ing the tracks of the Minnesota &
International road at Farley. The line
will touch Buena Vista, the line run
ming between Turtle Lake and Lake
Julia From there 1t will run in q
general northwesterly direction on
the divide, connecting with the Thief
River Falls extension in Isl, range AZ.
It now seems to be generally ac-
cepted that the line between Duluth
and Thief River Falls will be built this
year. The final surveys are being
made, and according to the reports
Current in railroad circles the project
is to be put through at once. Whether
1t will be known as the 500 line or
the Duluth, South Shore & Atlantic is
not known, there being reports both
ways In the matter.

NOT TO BE CAUGHT AGAIN
Hotdkeeper Who Was hot to Be

10000 Years.

We had an old hotelkeepepr in one
OF our Kansas towns who was man
OF many quaint theories" said Mr..
Joseph Tomlinson, a lawyer Of Inde-
pendence, Kan, relates the Washing
ton Post
"One of his odd conceits was that
all human beings will come back to
earth in exactly 10000 years, and that
they will duplicate In their reappear-
ance every act and word Of their prior
existence. This was his pet hobby and
the old man would expound it to every
guest: On one occasion q couple of
strangers whom he had entertained
over night and who had listened to
his 10000-year formula, when starting
away In the morning owned UP that
they were dead broke and could not
pay. but one Of them remarked that 1t
did not matter, for at the end Of q
hundred centuries they would call that
way again. and as he would be keeping
the same house they would cancel their.
Indebtedness.

dodge spoke up the landlord. 4 am

Because wanted to be respected.
Teachers are all respected by children.
Had nothing else could do, so tried

am q teacher because like power,
still long for more power. My ambi-
ton in that line is not yet satisfied.
Because could make better wages
than by working out as hired girl.
Because my friends and relatives said
I would make an ideal teacher and old
maid.
Because it runs in the family, and
love children.
Because think Carnegie will pension
worn-out school-teachers. Only way to
get On pension rolls, since wars are all
