When ls an Old Maldf

When does a girl become an old
maid? This question, blunt and shorn
of delicate innuendo, is now figuring
IN. the somnolent discussion Of Phila-
delphia society. One might say that
q girl becomes an old maid when she
fails to marry betimes, but that Is not
the point What is tho exact year
that ushers in spinsterhood and closes
forever the gates of youth? OF course,
this is not matter in which man
has any word to say. No rational
wearer OF trousers would tempt fate
and the scorn of femininity by at
tempting a suggestion, for any arbi.
trary dead line would necessarily
bring down upon the luckless mascu-
line head storm of reprobation. 1t
has been left to the women them
selves to brave the peril. And they
have placed the age at 40 years.
Under this ruling a woman is ten
der bud until twoscore years have
counted their gloomy litany Of days
and the hair near the scalp begins to

cannot be relieved without medicine
which not only acts as stomach tonic,
but has a peculiar tonic effect on the fe.

AS proof Of this theory we call at
tention to the case of Mrs. Maggie
Wright, Brooklyn, N. r., who was
completely cured by Lydia E. Pink

thing else had failed. She writes:
"For two years I suffered with dyspepsia

but nothing seemed to help me. I was adj
vised to give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound trial, and was happily surprised
to find that it acted like fine tonic, and in a
fewdays began to enjoy and properly digest
my food. My recovery was rapid, and In
five weeks was well woman. have rec

No other medicine in the world has
received such widespread and unquali-
fed endorsement or has such record
of cures of female troubles, as has Lydia
e. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

mother Says: "cuticura Rene

Last year, after having my little
girl treated by very prominent
physician, for an obstinate case of
eczema, resorted to the Cuticura
Remedies, and was so we'll pleased
with the almost instantaneous relief
afforded that we discarded the physi.
clans prescription and relied entirely
on the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint-
ment, and Cuticura Pills. When we
commenced with the Cuticura Rene
dies her feet and limbs were covered
with running sores. In about six
weeks we had her completely well,
and there has been no recurrence of
the trouble. We find that the Cuti-

FISH IN NEW PLACES.
Wild Ducks Found to Bear Fish Eggs
Ready to Hatch.

A correspondent from Saf11 wrote in
our June issue expressing his mysti-
f1cation as to how small fish come to
be in Enclosed waters. A naturalist
suggests an explanation. He says:
If the wild ducks, etc., of Morocco
are similar to those elsewhere there is
no mystery. For some years there
was open-mouthed wonder as to how
perch, Dream and crayfsh could get
into newly cut dams near the Mac
quarie river in New South Wales.
IN some cases the water had hardly
settled after the rain had filed the
dam than the fish were observed, and
the farmers started large theory of
spontaneous production.
''This obtained till Sydney profess
sor CHANGED to pick up wild duck
and found it's breast feathers and
webbed feet we'll dotted with fertile
and almost Matched fish-ova, on which
the Spontaneous production theory
was promptly withdrawn" - Cham.

EARNINGS Of Novelists.

Authors earn much less in France
than in England. The late Sir Walter
Besant ten years ago estimated that
there were so novelists in England
who earned upward of thousand a
year. There are now probably nearer
4 hundred and fifty; while in France
there are almost certainly not more
than 80 who make living at all. An
English novelist of standing will re-
ceive eighteenpence on every copy of
book sold. Some novelists receive
two shillings. Emile lola. who touched
high water mark in France, got q
franc, which is rather less than ten
pence. Seven pence halfpenny is
considered excellent pay, and four
pence and fivepence are common.

IT'S THE FOOD.

Nervous troubles are more often
caused by improper food and indiges'

doctors sometimes overlook this fact.
A man says:
Until two years ago waff1es and
butter with meat and gravy were the
main features Of my breakfast. Final.

self in a bad condition, worse in the
morning than any other time. I would
have a full, sick feeling in my stom'

AT times would nave no appetite
for days, then I would feel ravenous,

conscientious little policeman who was

everyone in the ward. Furthermore,
he was looking for some; one to run

the tragedy of the woman's death

swept on to its appointed end
Only once in the gathering darkness
did he pause to call for lights, and
then bent over his task again, to dash
on to the page one of those living
word pictures which had helped to
build up his fame. He felt, even as
he wrote, that he had never done bet
ter work than this, and wondered at
himself that he could do it.
Somehow he had never experienced
the fiery thrill of inspiration as he
experienced it tonight. He had writ
ten of death before, but never had

The death of this magnificent crea-

sumed for him an absolute reality. He
seemed to feel against his cheeks the
icy breath of the Dark Angel, the lamp
fickered ominously, and strange, fan
tastic shadows moved in weird process

he shivered. 1t seemed curiously cold
for June. He passed his hand over
his forehead and the sweat glistened
in his palm. An enervating languor
possessed his wearied senses.
"The holiday will do me good" he
reflected. 81 have been working too
hard; I'm glad it's finished. And it's
good too, the best I've ever done"
Putting away the sheets carefully in
a drawer, he glanced at the clock. It
was half-past nine, and the carriage
was waiting.
AS he descended at the station he
noticed that something unusual had
occurred. People were running Wild
ly about, questioning officials. Wom-
en- were sobbing and newsboys yelling
in strident tones. One of the latter
shrieked hoarsely in his ear:

Mechanically, with a forebodirg
sense of horror, he thrust out his
hand for paper.
"Surely-Ethel-"
Great Heavens!"
"Forsaken," was the success of the
season. In particular, the extraordi'
nary realism of the death scene in
the last chapter was the subject of
much comment.
