Miss Margret Mcrkley, Of e7s Third

Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
"Loss Of strength, extreme nervousness,
shooting pains through the pelvic organs,
bearing down pains and cramps compelled
me to seek medical advice. The doctor, after
making an examination, said had q female
trouble and liberation and advised an opera

to try Lydia f. Pinkham's Vegetable Com

the bad symptoms disappeared and am
once more strong, vigorous and well"

that his plow struck something hard
when he was plowing deep. He
thought It was stones. and is now sur

over valuable iron mine.
The discovery of iron Is due to the
digging of some county drainage ditch

TEs CAKES WIN M. P.'S SEAT.
But Royal Election Board Declares
victs m Used Unfair Means in
Obtaining Votes.

London When Thomas Charles
Aga -Roba ties sought election to par
lament fom the Bodmin division Of
Cornwall Just before the recent liberal
landslide he inaugurated something
new in the line of electioneering.
He gave garden parties to the horny
handed farmers and grimy-faced delv-
ers in the Cornish mines. He served
tea cakes and cream. while his oppo-
nent, keeping open house in the old
familiar way at the nearest pub
jeered. laughed and wagered he would
win.
Then came the startling result. The
tea cakes and cream beat the beer and
Bass ale. Thomas Charles Aga-Ro-
bartes was elected.
But developments came fast after
this. After being startled at such an
unthinkable thing as being beaten by
garden parties the defeated candidate
charged election fraud. And even his
charge was unusual because 1t made
no mention of ballot box stuffing or
the intimidation OF voters. Instead he
charged that the tea parties Of Mr.
Kobartes were unfair.
Most astonishing Of Az the royal
election court has sustained the oppo-
nent of Mr.. Robartes. 1t has said gar
den parties are an illegal election
method and MIR. Robartes. who Is the
liberal son Of Lord Clifton. a conser-
vative viscount. has been ousted from
his seat.

After Shedding the New Shells Hard
en- With Great Rapidity.
The supply of soft crabs for market
Is obtained by catching hard crabs and
keeping them until they shed their
shells. For this purpose large rec
tangular floats, made of laths and
planking, are employed, and three or
four times every day the stock on hand
is carefully inspected, all the soft
crabs being picked out and packed
without delay. They are put into shall
low boxes of moist seaweed, from ten
to thirty-fve dozen in a box, according
to the size Of the animals. When the
packing is done carefully the occu-
pants may be kept alive from sixty to
seventy hours after leaving the water.
Crabs have been shipped all the way
from the Chesapeake to Canada, arriv-
ing at their destination in good condi-
ton. In summer, of course, ice is used.
But where soft crabs are concerned
it is necessary that they shall reach
the market quickly, because their new
shells harden with great rapidity.
At the end Of twelve hours the shells
are like parchment, and in three or
four days the crab is as hard as ever
hence unfit for use in the form most
highly. approved by epicures.-

FIGHTING THE SEA.
Hollands Continuous Performance
In Preventing Floods.

Hollands Continuous Performance
In Preventing Floods.
Holland is a country of wooden piles
and bikes, for the people are perpetu-
ally fighting against the encroach-
ments of water. One building in Am
sterdam rests on no fewer than 1869
piles, though the bikes around the
town, which have been erected at enor-
nous expense, effectually prevent any
chance of a flood. The streets Of the
dourishing port of Rotterdam even are
frequently under water in the winter,
and in some parts of south Holland
the people are compelled to do their
shopping in boats.
When the Zuyder Zee breaks on to
the land, those who wade up to their
knees along the streets of a flooded
village meet all manner of fish. This
is explained by the fact that the Zuy-
der Zee, with it's mud bottom, is liter
ally crammed with fnny tribes; and
one authority states that if it were
well scraped Of all it's fish one year,
it would be full again the next.
The land Of Holland is really Of four
distinct levels, and from ten to twelve
feet between the highest and the low
est. To make the land dry, the water
Is pumped from the lowest level to the
one Immediately above it, and so on,
until the water has been returned
again to the sea. A large number Of
engineers are specially engaged to look
after the bikes, and no less sum than
$2,500,00O is expended every year in
keeping these Notifications against the
sea in proper repair.
