THREE FACTS
For Sick Women
 To Consider

FIRsT.-That almost every operation in our hospitals performed upon women becomes necessary through neglect of such symptoms as backache, irregular and painful periods. displacements of the female organs, pain in the side, burning sensation in the stomach, bearing down pains, nervousness, dig ziness and sleeplessness.
 SECoND.-The medicine that holds the record for the largest number of absolute cures of female ills is Lydia F.. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. It regulates, strengthens and cures diseases of the female organism as nothing else can.
 For thirty years it has been helping women to be strong, curing backache, nervousness, kidney troubles, inham- nation of the female organs, weak ness and displacements, regulating the periods perfectly and overcoming their pains. It has also proved itself invaluable in preparing women for childbirth and the change of life.
 THIRD.-The great volume of unso- licited and grateful testimonials on file at the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn, , Mass, many of which are from time to time published by permission, give ab- solute evidence of the value of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice.
 Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation oWomen.--Women suffering from any form of female weakness are invited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pink ham, at Lynn, Mass. All letters are received, opened. read and answered by women only. omsymptoms given, your trouble may be located and the quickest and surest way of recovery advised. Mrs. Pinkham is daughter in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham and for twenty-five years under her direction and since her decease she has been ad. vising sick women free fcharge. Out ot the vast volume of experience in treat ing female ills Mrs. Pinkham probably has the very knowledge that will help your case. Surely, any woman, rich or poor, is very foolish if she does not take advantage of this generous offer oi assistance.

Can a Robin Run9

Writes a valued subscriber: "I saw a
freak in birdOlogy Just now as I was
coming from my house to my Office,
and called the attention of two others
to it who we've standing near by. There
were several robins running about in
the yard adjoining my lot, and among
them was one with a white head and
neck. VIII the president Of the Audu-
bon society please tell US how to ac-
punt for it?
Pending Mr.. Parsons explanation
we would suggest that a robin never
runs, since he can use one leg only
spontaneously with the other, and both
have to go the same way at once. 1t is
funny thing about a robins legs, but
they are dependent to a degree Per
haps the robin ran because he was
white headed. Now, why he is white
headed is another question. The prin-
ciple of the albno characteristics of
heads that once were black and now
are white has never been solved ex-
cept by those concerns which advertise
to make white heads black, and they
won't tell.
But If this robin has learned how to
run he is the oldest in the flock GER

a hazard.-Charlotte News and OBJ

Voices In the Mail.

Instead Of sending a cold and more
or less. formal written letter to a dis
tant loved one, says the Technical
World, it is now possible to send BY
mail a verbal message, which may be
as warm and thrilling as the sender
desires. This has been made possible
by the invention Of three Frenchmen,
who have perfected a phonograph rec
ord OF sufficient hardness to go through
the mails and be ready to voice the
message it contains upon delivery at
its destination. A material called
sonOrine, which has all the advantages
Of wax and the. added quality Of being
indestructlble. is spread upon cards
which conform to postofice regulations
and requirements. The record is made
by spiral, which fills the card except
for a small spot in the middle. A card
will hold about eighty words. Sonorine
has not been introduced into America
yet.

sugar and spring Flowers.

Why do the flowers bloom in the
spring? We all know the place Of the
flower in the economy of the plant. but
what is the precise cause of its pe-
riodical appearance? 1t is Of course
due to some form of irritation, and a
recent examination of the question has
been made by plant physiologist Os-
car Loew, who lives in Japan. His re-
searches have been made particularly
with the japanese cherry blossom. De
spite the abundance Of their blossoms.
the japanese cherry trees do not pro-
duce perfect fruit, for the climatic
conditions cause the cherries while still
in an unripe state to drop from the
trees. Herr LOew found that the nu-
tritiye matter which the tree provides
to bring its fruit to ripeness ceased to
be operative after the unripe cherries
had fallen off and was stored in the
form of starch in the bark. This starch
in the following spring was transform

Ihe Country Was Ruled by Native
Kings Until 1919.
Norway marked another turning
point in its history when it declared it.
self Independent Of Sweden, with
which It has been associated since 1914.
Norway's historical period stretches
no further back than the ninth cen
tury. Behind that time are the ages
OF the sagas. The petty tribal kings
were united under Harald Haarfagr, or
Falrhair. Harald died about 933 aft
er having established his government

tianity was introduced. In the year
1928 King Olaf the Saint was driven
out by King Canute the Great Of Den
mark. but Olafs son recovered posses
sion, and until 1919 Norway continued
to be governed by native kings. Dur
ing these centuries the Morse adven- .
turers established permanent colonies
in Iceland and Greenland, and for
awhile the Orkney and Shetland isles
and the lIetrides were in the possess
sion of Norwegian kings, whose last
inroad into Scotland was repealed in :
1868.
In 1919. there being no male heirs to
the throne the Norwegian national as =

ruler of both Scandinavian kingdoms 9

and Norway. Later she became mis- h
