Women Who Wear Well.

it is astonishing how great a change
. few years of married life often make
In the appearance and disposition OF
many women. The freshness, the
charm, the brilliance vanish like the
bloom from flower which is rudely
handled. The matron is only a dim
shadow, a faint echo of the charming
maiden. Few young women appreciate
the shock of the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
riage and motherhood, not understand
ing that this secret drain is robbing the
cheek of its freshness and the form of
its fairness.
As surely as the general health suffers
when there is arrangement of the health
of the delicate womanly organs, SO surely
when these organs are established in
health the face and form at once witness
to the fact in renewed comeliness.

health and happiness in the use of DIR.

Dana is a huge st. Bernard who has
his own ideas as to his importance.
Whenever he wishes to attract atten-
ton he knocks his water pail over and
then rolls it around. growing at It and
making a great fuss. Then he puts
his head in and throws the pail high
in the air, batting ut ii with his paws
as 1t comes down. If this does not
have the desired effect he picks up
the pail By the handle and takes it into
the barn. where the noise is increased
by far owing to the wooden floor. This
performance is given whenever the
horse is petted or when strangers come
to the house.--Chicago Tribune.

greatly surprised today at noon when
he received a message from f. c..
Fargo, superintendent of the Indiana
division, stating that the local office
is ordered TO close Tuesday Local
attaches cannot understand the move
made by the officials of the company
as the receipts of the Office have in
creased monthly for the past year and
no money has been lost in maintain
ing the local branch The American
express company for the past few
years has had no outlet from Rich
mond other than tonnage with the
Adams Express company. The Am

signments to Dayton or Indianapolis
or some other nearby city where con-
nections could be made with Ameri-

reason that can be given at the pre-

The kaiser's GnIlantry.

From Illustrated Bits
The German Emperor, despite his aus
terity, can be all that is courteous. even
to Germans. when they are pretty women.
Last autumn. when he was shooting in
the country. he met the pretty young
bride Of a country squire. and was so
much struck with her that he invited
himself to tea on the following day. The
Kaiser duly paid his visit TO the young
couple. and while he was talking 20 his
hostess, the servant brought him a CUP
OF hot soup. He was paying more atten-
tion 10 the bride than TO the food. and
for the moment he thought that he was
being served with tea in the English
fashion so he sent the servant for. some
sugar and cream Both the hostess and
the servant were much too nervous 10
warn him, and SO the Kaiser put both
sugar and cream into his soup. stirred #
up briskly, and began 10 drink The very
first taste told him what he had done. but
the anguish of the bride was so evident
that. with almost superhuman gallantry
he never blinked an eyelid. but swallowed
the mixture as If It had been his usual
way Of taking soup
