Treat That Rover Missed,

Tales of the siege of Paris during
the Franco-Prussian war have been
many. One of these yarns was as fol.
lows: A muCh-!oyed collie dog had
been preserved by its owners from
the death that befell all pets during
that time of starvation. There came
at last a day, however, when it, too.
had to go, and the sorroWing but fam.
ished family met their pet for the last
time in the soup tureen. They ate in
silence until nothing remained but a
heap Of bones. Then the master of
the house, an absent-minded person,
looked round in search of something,
and said with a sigh: How poor old
Rover would have enjoyed those
bones"

and investigating mind, an earnest
seeker after knowledge, and above
all, possessed of a wonderfully sympa-
thetic nature.
In 1S43 she married Isaac Pinkham,
a builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children. three sons and a
daughter.
In those good old fashioned days it
was common for mothers to make
their own home medicines from roots
and herbs, natures own remedies
calling in a physician only in specially
urgent cases. BY tradition and ex-
perience many of them gained won
derful knowledge of the curative prop
critics of the various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinkham took a great interest
in the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power over disease.
She maintained that just as nature so
bountifully provides in the harvest
fields and orchards vegetable foods of
all kinds; so, if we but take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
of the field there are remedies ex-
pressly designed to cure the various
ills and weaknesses of the body, and
it was her pleasure to search these out,
and prepare simple and effective medi-
cines for her own family and friends.
Chief of these was q rare combina-
ton of the choicest medicinal roots
and herbs found best adapted for the
cure of the ills and weaknesses pecu-
liar to the female sex, and Lydia E. Pink
hams friends and neighbors learned
that her compound relieved and cured
and it became quite popular among
them.
All this so far was done freely, with
out money and without price, as a
labor of love.
But in 1873 the financial crisis struck
Lynn. Its length and severity were too
much for the large real estate interests
of the Pinkham family, as this class
of business suffered most from
fearful depression, so when the Centen-
NAL year dawned it found their prop
erty swept away. Some other source
of income had to be found.
At this point Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound was made known
to the world.

bones in the legs Of other horses are
very porous and can sustain great
weight, but are not able to stand the
strain that comes on the more com.

noted for the strength of bone found
in their legs. Those bones seem in
some cases to be almost as hare as
steel. They enable the Arabian horse
to cover vast stretches Of territory in
short time. Every leap is a great
strain on the bones of the ankles and
feet, especially when the horse has a

Hallway Tickets From " SLOT MacIine,

An interesting application OF the slot
principle has been made in England,
where the Lancashire and Yorkshire
Railway has introduced an automatic
ticket machine at point where Il large
number of tickets for neighboring
station are sold. The machine is of
simple construction. and when the coin
is dropped into the slot and a handle
pulled the ticket is dropped into an
open receptacle. If the machines prove
successful in operation it is proposed
to install a large number at suburban
stations. not only with the purpose of
relieving the ticket Office. especially
during rush hours, but to enable pas
SengerS TO purchase their tickets more
speedily without waiting in line at
the window. 1t has been suggested
that a number of these machines could
be employed at rapid transit or sub
way stations in this country with adj
vantage. The English company con-
siderS that the automatic ticket ma
chine will serve to increase suburban
traffic, and enable it to meet electric
competition Oh better terms Harper'S

The eccentric hats worn at present
will be regarded as freaks in six

Crepe de chine is very good mate
rial to use for room gowns. 1t washes

The utmost ingenuity has been used
in the matter of trimmings, but the
shapes look as if they were left wholly
to chance.
The best all-around fur is mink. 1t
is never cheap to buy. but it Outwears
most furs and is really Il better bar

The great objection to Persian lamb
is its unbecomingness to most women.

for cOlOrleSs woman.
Very pretty, indeed, are many of the

Dress materials are nearly all re-
duced in price, and for comparatively
little one may buy the seasons best

and fancy materials.
1t is regarded as permissible for a
woman to wear long lace or chiffon
scarf at dinner, when she must appear
in full dress. The soft, delicate col0rs
Of the scarfs lend dainty touch to al
most any gown.
What can one think of q beautiful
turquoise blue felt trimmed with a
twist of white velvet, a wreath of
white roses and two white ostrich
feathers, utterly ruined artistically by
