Miss KoteMcDonaLd|

More than likely you speak the same
words yourself, and no doubt you feel
far from we'll. The cause may be easily
traced to some arrangement of the fe-
male organs which manifests itself in
depression of spirits. reluctance to go
anywhere or do anything. backache,
bearing-down pains. flatulency, nerv-
business, sleeplessness, or other fe-
male weakness.
These symptoms are but warnings
that there is danger ahead, and unless
needed life of suffering or serious
operation is the inevitable result.
The never. failing remedy for all these
symptoms is Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound.
Miss Kate Mcdonald of Woodbridge,
N. j., writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
"Restored health has meant so much TO me
that l cannot help from telling about it for
the sake of other suffering women.
" For long time | suffered untold agony
with female trouble and irregularities,
which made me physical wreck and no one
thought would recover, but Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound has entirely
cured me, and made me well and strcng, and
l feel it my duty to tell other suffering women
what splendid medicine it is"
For twenty-five years Mrs. Pinkham,
daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham,
has under her direction. and since her
decease. been advising sick women free
of charge. Her advice is free and
always helpful. Address, Lynn, Mass.

DR.. Loye tells the following strange
story. taken from the archives of an
Austrian police officer, and relating to
an execution said to have taken place
In Vienna In $780, A well-known ban
dit named Schavenburg was caught,
together with four of his associates,
and they were all condemned to
death. They were already on their
knees. ready to submit to their fate,
when Schavenburg addressed the
Judge. asking that his four compan-
ions might be ranged in single file In
front of him at a distance OF eight
feet from each other.
"If," he said, after L am beheaded,

comrades, will you pardon him?
The judge thought he was pretty
safe in complying with the request.
But II / walk up to the second, the
third. and the fourth, will you pardon
those also?"
The Judge replied that he would OBJ
tain their pardon from the emperor.
The bandit was satisfied. bent his
head, received the mortal blow, and
his head rolled down; but to the great
surprise of the judge and the specta-
tors, the body got up, walked alone,
passed the first. second, third and
fourth of the condemned men, and fell
down. The occurrence was told to
the emperor, who. according to prom
lse. pardoned the four criminals.

FINDS VIRTUE IN OLD CLOTHES.
Mems Garments Shaped to the Figure

To the eye of the artist the gar

tolerable when age has adapted them
somewhat to the lines of the figure;
to the average artist a new suit of
clothes is an abomination.
1T is not only that new clothes are

Remarkable Effect of Operation for

feel that horrible hurt? Gentlemen,
that man had no feeling in his face
whatever. He told me that he had

the tic, had left his face dead to all

Natural Color of Pure Water

1t was long ago discovered that the
natural color of pure water is blue,
and not white, as most of us usually
supposed. Opinions have not agreed
on the cause of the green and yellow
tints; these, it has been discovered
by w. Spring, are due to extraneous
substances. Dissolved calcium salts,
though apparently giving green tint,
due to a fine invisible suspension,
have no effect on the color OF the
water when adequate precautions
are taken. The brown or yellow color
due to iron salts is not seen when cal
cium is present. The green tint Is
often due to a condition of equilibrium
between the color effect of the iron
salts and the precipitating action of
the calcium salts.-Scientif1c Ameri-
