Every mother possesses information
which Is of vital Interest to her young
daughter.
Too often this is never impaired or is
withheld until serious harm has result
cd to tho growing girl through her
ignorance of natures mysterious and
wonderful laws and penalties.
Girls over-sensitivcncss and modesty
often puzzle their mothers and battle
physicians, rs they SO often withhold
their confidence from their mothers
and conceal the symptoms which ought
to be told to their physician ut this
critical period.
Whensa girls thoughts become slug
gish, with headache, dizziness or n dis
position to sleep, pains in back or lower
limbs, eyes dim, desire for solitude;
when she is a mystery to herself and
friends, her mother should come to her
aid, and remember that Lydia Il. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound will at
this time prepare the system for the
coming change, and start this trying
period in n young girls life without
pain or Irregularities.
Hundreds of letters from young girls
and from mothers, expressing their
gratitude for what Lydia Il. Pinkhan' S
Vegetable Compound has accomplished
for them. have been received by the

Edible Menu Gard.

In London the latest thing is "bill
of eat that you may finish your meal
on. The sheet on which it is printed
is the sugar paper used on the bottom
of maccaroons, while the lettering is
cake frosting. The London caterer
who invented the edible menu card
has been honored by the patronage OF
the king. The king commanded
the caterer to teach his chef to make
the edible novelty, and the kings chef
produced it for a dinner at Windsor
castle. There was much laughter as
the kings guests discovered that the
menu cards" were good to eat. They
promptly ate them. 1t is said that
the only bad thing about the cards is

Keeping Parents In subjeetIun.

In the life of the very rich some
parents still seek to resemble those
curfews incarnate in humble life who
keep the girls at home and the boys
out of the barrooms. Middle life and
old age are too hidebound to get ac-
customed to the manners of the new
generation of young men who are old
and worn before they graduate and OF
young women who win or lose large
sums at gambling. Children have a
right to expsct from their parents do
cile obedience. At first this may be
difficult but, as Aristotle says, "Vir-
tue is habit" and it can be acquired.

THE TICKING OF THE CLOCK.
Soothing Company to Some sIeepers
Cause Of WakefuIness in Others. :.

Not all people," said the jeweler,
like the ticking of clock; it is a
pleasant sound to most people, but
not to all.
Some people, clock lovers these.
couldn't sleep without a clock in the
same room. Its ticking is company
and it scares away the spooks. Such
people would wake up II the clock
should stop in the middle Of the
night.
But there are other people who
can't sleep with a clock in the same
room and who, IL they found them
selves in n strange place anywhere
with a clock in their sleeping apart
ment, would stop the clock before
they went to bed.
"Of course there is much Of habit
in this; but we have our fancics about
clocks, as we do about all things
else"

A Lazy Liver

May be only tired liver, or a starved
liver. 1t would be a stupid as well as
savage thing to beat weary or starved
man because he Jagged in his work. So
in treating the tagging, torpid liver it is
great mistake to lash it with strong
drastic drugs. A torpid liver is but an
indication of an ill-nourished enfeebled
body whose organs are weary with over
work. Start with the stomach and allied
organs Of digestion and nutrition. Put
them in working order and sec how
quickly your liver will become active.
DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
has made many marvellous cures of oliver
trouble" by its wonderful control of the
organs OF digestion and nutrition. 1t re-
stores the normal activity of the stomach,
increases the secretions of the blood-mak-
ing glands, cleanSes the system from poi
sonous accumulations, and so relieves the
liver Of the burdens imposed upon it by
the detection Of other organs.

wEAKFIsH IN BIG SCHOOLS.
Great Sport for the Fishermen Down in
Gravesend BAY.


There has been an extraordinary run
Of weakfish in Gravesend bay. 1t began
some days ago, and fishermen say that
it is likely to continue for several DAYS
more unless storm comes.
One morning Louis Girard caught Ill
ON one tide and the next morning
brought in between sixty and seventy,
John Lockwood caught ninety-three in
forenoon. and there have been many
other catches of from 40 to 100 in three
or four hours fishing.
These catches have been made near
the Atlantic Yacht club anchorage, not
far from the mooring known as the big
fender buoy and about ten minutes pull
in skiff from Stillwell's, at the foot
of Forty-eighth street. The catches
have been made on hand lines and with
rods.
A four ounce sinker is used, with one
leader and one hook and with blood
worms for bait. The water there is
fifteen or twenty feet deep. The weak
fish run fairly even in size-about two
pounds-and are in fine condition.-New

Restoring a Ruhens Ceiling.

Provision has been made in next years
estimates for sum of $4,000 toward the
cost of cleaning and restoring the famous
Rubens ceiling in the old banqueting hall
Of Whitehall palace. The work, which
has become urgent, is to be carried out
next summer.
These valuable paintings have been re-
touched upon several occasions-once by
Cipriani, who received exactly $4,000 for
stoned s BY Charles |. to % undertake LEI a the
work, received as his reward $4,000, or
f10 a yard. 1t was intended originally
that Vandyke should have painted the
sides of this beautiful apartment with a
history of the Order of the Garter.
An interesting fact In connection with
the ceiling is that Rubens' canvases are
attached by leather bands, so that their
removal for purposes of restoration is a
matter of little or no difficulty. The
subjects Of the paintings are chosen to
illustrate the prosperous condition of
Great Britain in the reign Of King
James I.-London Tribune.
