Of Interest to Women.

Every woman naturally should be
healthy and strong. but a great many
women. unfortunately, are not owing
to the unnatural condition of the lives
we lead. Headache. backache and a
general tired condition are prevalent
amongst the women of to-day. and to
relieve these conditions women rush
to the druggists for a bottle of some
preparation supposed to be particular
ly for them, and containing nobody
knows what. If they would just get
a box of Brandreth's Pills, and take
them regularly every night for a time,
all their trouble would disappear, as
these pills regulate the organs of the
feminine system. The same dose al
ways has the same effect, no matter
how long they are used.
Brandreths pills have been in use
for over century, and are for sale
everywhere, plain or sugar-coated.

Wonder Of Plant Memory.

Plant memory is a problem for the
inquisitive botanist. says the Dundee
Advertiser. In 1901 a plant allied to
the squash and pumpkin was taken to
New York from the desert of Sonora
in Mexico, and since then it has been
without watering-in strange
climate 5000 miles from home, Dur
ing the six weeks of rain in the des-
ert the plant grows its leaves and
flowers and perfects its seed, Then
1t dries up and leaves only "A water.
filed gourd. which thick, hard shell
seals against animals and evaporation.
The transplanted specimen still re-.
members the rainy season of six
weeks. 1t wakes, sends ont rootlets,
stems and leaves. and then dries up
again until the following year.

Greek Emigration Increasing.

Information received by the govern.
ment from various Greek provinces in.
dicates that the emigration to America
is increasing. A committee OF depu.
ties has been appointed to look into
the matter. and it is probable that
measures will be adopted to restrict
and limit emigration from Greece. 1t
is estimated that by the end OF the
year the number OF those who have
expatriated themselves will reach 20..
900. Hitherto emigration has taken
place principally from the Peloponne.
sus. but it is now spreading to central
Greece, to Thessaly and the islands.

NOW THE RADIUM BLONDE.
New Type Of Girl Seems to Have
Sprung Up Lately.

"She's a radium blonde" remarked
the man in the tan derby.
What's that" asked the curious
man
Haven't you noticed" queried the
other, with all this talk about the
Hpassing of the blonde, that new type
'of blonde girl has sort Of sprung up
lately? It's the tawny kind, sort Of
red-gold. yellow all over. The Radium
Blonde has hair that is neither red
nor gold When she wears green or
brown or red, her hair looks red, but
when she wears white or black 1t
looks golden. She has eyes of the
same puzzling description, tiger-yel-
low Her skin isn't light and it isn't
dark, but there's a dull glow in her
cheeks. Altogether she looks like a
faint sunrise or tiger And she has
all the fascinating ways and the dan
gerous disposition of the tiger. She
seems possessed of the red-headed
girls temper and deviltry and of the
gentle purring femininity of the gold
en- blonde. l call her the Radium
Blonde because she's comparatively
new discovery of mine, and because
she's SO much rarer than the plain
golden girl."-New York Press.

MIX THIS At HOME.
Valuable Prescription Which Anyone
Can Easily Prepare.

The following simple homemade
mixture Is said to readily relieve and
overcome any form of Rheumatism by
forcing the Kidneys to filter from the
blood and system all the. uric acid and
poisonous waste matter. relieving at
once such symptoms as backache,
weak kidneys and bladder and blood
diseases.
Try it, as it doesn't cost much to
make, and is said to be absolutely
harmless to the stomach.
Get the following harmless ingredi-
ents from any good pharmacy: Fluid
Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce;
Compound Kargon, one ounce; Com
pound Syrup of Sarsaparilla, three
ounces Mix by shaking well in bot
tie, and take teaspoonful after each
meal and again at bedtime.
This simple mixture is said to give
prompt relief, and there are very few
cases of Rheumatism and Kidney
troubles it will fail to cure perma-
nently.
These are all harmless, everyday
drugs, and your druggist should keep
them in the prescription department;
II not, have him order them from the
wholesale drug houses for you, rather
than fail to use this, if you are af-
dicted.

Stone ForeteIIs Weather.

There exists stone which is said
unfailingly foretells changes in the

scientists, with great interest. 1t pre-
sents a white. mottled appearance. in
sunshine, gradually turning from
gray to black as rainstorm ap-

clay, inter and rock salt. In dry
weather the salt in the stone is prom

moisture the salt absorbs the moist
ure and turns black, thus forming the
barometer.
