All women work: some in their
homes, some in church, and some in
the whirl of society. And in stores,
mills and shops tens of thousands are
on the neTer-ceasing treadmill, earning
their daily bread.
All are subject to the same physical
laws; all suffer alike from the same
physical disturbance, and the nature of
their duties, in many cases, quickly
drifts them into the horrors of all
kinds of female complaints, tumors,
liberation, falling and displace-
ments or perhaps irregularity or
suppression, causing backache, ner-
vousness, irritability and lassitude.
They especially require an invigorat-
ing, sustaining medicine which will
strengthen the female organism and
enable them to bear easily the fatigues
Of the day. to sleep well at night, and
to rise refreshed and cheerful.
How distressing to see a woman
struggling to earn d livelihood or per
form her household duties when her
back and head are aching, she is SO
tired she can hardly drag about or
stand up, and every movement causes
pain, the origin of which is due to
some arrangement of the female Or
ganism.
Miss F. Orser, of Il Warrenton Street.
Boston, tells women how to avoid such
suffering she writes:
Dear Mrs Pinkham:-
"I suffered misery for several years with
female irregularities. My back ached; had

Ever and anon she drew aside the
curtains and peered expectantly down
the street.
He was coming home after four
years absence-four long years of
waiting and hoping. And he was
coming crowned with success She
remembered well his going away
eager to try his mettle with the
world and to challenge fortune. but
beset with doubts and fears as to the
outcome.
They had been rare friends all their
school days and she had been the
confidant of all his ambitions, hopes
and fears. True they were not en-
gaged-that was impossible because he
had his way to make in
the world and must secure a
foothold before he could even
give a thought to matrimony.
They often had talked it over in the
abstract not with reference to
themselves or their relations, but with
reference to his life plans. But she
had regarded him as her own par
ticular knight and was sure he would
come back to claim her when victory
had crowned his efforts.
There had been nothing of love-
making in their relationship, but rath-
er a spirit of comradeship and close
friendship and both were so young
and so absorbed with the other affairs
of life that they had thought little or
nothing of the grand passion.
1t was after he had gone away that

sweet discovery of her love had glori-
fed the world. 1t was this knowledge
which had made her value so highly
the unexpected legacy which had
come to her upon the death of Uncle
John. She would bring to him no
mean portion when he came to claim
her and she tingled with joy at the
thought that this would help him scale
the heights so much quicker and cas-
Ter.
Little correspondence had passed
between them and that wholly in ref
erence to his work.
And now he was coming home. Not
yet with ultimate victory emblazoned
on his banners but yet with enough
accomplished to feel that his feet were
on the rocks and that, barring sick
ness or misfortune, his career was
assured. And she awaited him all
aglow with joy and anticipation. She
had attired herself with great care for
the occasion. She knew the simplicity
of his tastes but wanted to show her
own good fortune while she con-
graduated him on his. So she
had selected gown of simple
design but of richest material and in
perfect taste. Only two or three
jewels, but those priceless, shone on
her neck and hands. The mirror to
which she made her final appeal for
approval, gave back reflection which

orisinators of Upright Writing.

Before a school teacher lay a num-
Der of compositions, all written in a
neat, upright hand.
Few people," she said, know to
whom we are'indebted for the straight
up and down penmanship now taught
in our schools, and few grasp the SUI
periority of this style.
Upright writing was originated by
Drs. Won Reuss and Lorenz of Aus
tria. They recommended it to the
Austrian Supreme Council of Hygiene.
They pointed out that it was the bet
ter style of writing to teach children
for the reason that child using it
would face his book and would thus
be spared the twist of the body and
neck which is always observed in
those who write the slanting hand =.
This twist, they showed, had a ten
dency to bring on spinal curvature.

Reuss and DIR. -Lorenz was adopted in

The scarlet leaped to her cheeks
and her heart beat so hard she
thought he must hear it.
Then they sat down in cosy cor
ner and he told her of all his strug-
giles and achievements and prospects;
told her in the same old whimsical
way, so interesting in its contrasts of
quaint humor and pathos, of child
like simplicity and keen intelligence,
of boundless faith and intuitive judg

she realized with glow of conscious

SOLDIERS FRIENDLY WORDS
Au of of
from rfosby and Tiers

Capt. E1eazer Smith of Lynn, Mass,
member of the 5th New Hampshire
regiment during the civil war, num-
bers among his large collection of au-
tographs of famous generals and other
men of deeds the signature of the
famous confederate guerilla, Mosby.
Capt Smith took part in eighteen bat
ties, but he always remembered the
narrow escape his regiment had from
Mosby's flying squadron So one day
he sat down at his desk and composed
this letter to the old rebel cavalry
man:
Dear Sir-I am approaching you as
the man who chased me more miles
than any other man. 1 confess this
now. l am not afraid to approach you,
for the war is ended, and you are not
now, as then, chasing US when we
were not engaged in the occupation of
chasing you 1 am, sir, your obedient
servant, ELEAZER SMITH"
Captain of 5th New Hampshire Regt"
To Capt. Smiths great pleasure.
Col. Mosby promptly answered. Dear
Sir" the letter ran, Il have read your
note requesting my autograph, which
is subscribed. 1 am ALWAYS glad to
hear from and meet old soldiers, even
if we were opposed to each other in
the war. With my best wishes. yours
truly, John S. Mosby.'
In the autograph book is this letter
from Fighting Joe" Wheeler:
''Your kind letter gave me much
pleasure. 1 only reached home yester-
day, after an absence in Europe. 1t
was very kind of you to write to me
as you did, and 1 thank you for it.

said, If it be the will of God to call
me- shall be able properly to answer
the call. God bless you. Sincerely
yours, in fraternity and comradeship,
"OLIyER o. HOWARD"
Another letter which Capt. Smith
speaks of with great reverence came
from Gen. Mcclellan. Little Mac
wrote:
my Dear Sir-Your most kind and
welcome letter reached me some days
ago. I have been unable until now to
acknowledge it. Nothing gives me
such pleasure and satisfaction as just
such letters as yours from my old
comrades, showing that the strong
cords which united us in the long
past days of the war have not been
weakened by time. Again thanking
you for your letter, am, sincerely

In keeping with the military spirit
OF the autograph book is a letter from
the author of ''Tenting on the Old
Camp Ground" Walter Kittredge of
Reeds Ferry, N. H, containing the
first verse and chorus of that inspir-
ing poem. Capt. Smith prizes it very
highly. Julia Ward Howe has sent
this appropriate note: mine eyes
have seen the glory of the coming OF
the Lord from her splendid poem,

Gen. Lew Wallace has written:
