MRS HENRY LEE

Owing to modern methods OF living
not ono woman in a thousand ap-
proaches this perfectly natural change
without experiencing train Of very
annoying and sometimes painful
symptoms.
This is the most critical period OF
her whole existence and every woman
who neglects the care of her health
at this time invites disease and pain.
When her system is In deranged
condition or she is predisposed to
apoplexy or congestion of any organ,
the tendency is at this p o r I o d
likely to become active and with o
host of nervous irritations make life a
burden. At this time also cancers
and tunors are more liable to form
and begin their destructive work.
Such warning symptoms as sense
of suffocation, hot flashes, headaches,
backaches, melancholia, dread OF inn
pending evil, palpitation of the heart,
Irregularities, constipation and dizzi-
ness are promptly needed by intel.

the period of life when this great

WILD AND WARLIKE

There is one wild warlike tribe in
the Philippines that has .stubbornly
refused for centuries to become at

These people are known as the lion

This tribe comes within the jurisdic-

Gov Quezon's report, there is one sec

these people where no Christian has

APPENDICITIS.

duke, called the prince parent, whose
enmity she had incurred and whom
she had been instrumental in having
held In exile in China. That was dur
ing the China-Japanese war, and with
the victories OF the little Japanese
came the release OF the grand duke
and his return to Seoul. followed by
the tragic murder Of Queen Min.
What happened on that fateful night
Of October 8, 1895, has been related
many times and in many ways. The
essential facts are that Japanese
troops surrounded the palace grounds
and held the populace and the loyal
troops in check that Korean troops
trained and ofiicered by Japanese
broke down the gates. and that a
horde of Japanese soldiers together
with number OF Soshi or unattached
adventurers rushed In, and under the
guidance of men attached to the Jap
anese legation made their way to the
pavilion where the queen slept. Her
majesty aroused by the tumult In the
city, had apparently a fair opportu-
nifty to escape. Indeed, II is report
ed that she had already found safe
refuge in the vast park, when her ma
ternal instinct, her idolatry for the
lmbecile boy whom the japanese have
now proclaimed emperor. brought her
back TO the palace where she met her
death.
And now what Of Korea? Time alone
will demonstrate. But one encour.
aging word comes from one OF the
American missionaries now laboring
in Korea Rev. Philip s. Glllett. gen
eral secretary of the Seoul Young
Mems Christian association. who
says: Il give II as my opinion that
most of the Missionaries In Korea ap-

is proving itself practically capable

SCHOOLS AND CHURCHES.
Two Vital Things for the Welfare Of
the Masses.

There Is wisdom in the old slogan,
"a school on every hill top and
church in every valley" Citizens OF
the United States may we'll feel proud
Of the great educational system which
makes It possible for all classes TO ac-
quire the proper mental cultivation.
They may also feel proud of the re-
llgious liberty that each and every
citizen enjoys. There is no estab-
lished church TO interfere with the
free exercise Of conscience, neither Is
there any law that interferes with the
exercise of religious belief.
The United States can be looked
upon as a nation where schools and
churches flourish to the fullest The
public school system is one Of the
most perfect that civilization has yet
evolved. or course there are com.
munities where local conditions are
not so favorable for schools as other
places. II will be observed that the
more important is the city or the
town, the more advanced are the edu-
cational facilities offered the people.
The residents OF rural communities
have their state or district school. the
curriculums OF which are restricted.
It is to the nearby town that the chill
dren who are residents of the farm
districts must look for their higher
education. which is a necessary prep
aration for entry into college, and for
business life. How important II is,
then, to the resident OF the farm dis
trict that his home town be an active
place and of sufficient business inn
portance to Justify the maintenance OF
a high class school! II can be seen
how each resident Of a farming com.
munity should be interested in the
home town and all that pertains to its
upbuilding. If on no other account,
purely on account of the educational
facilities.
Running parallel in importance with
the schools are the churches. The
better the home town the better are
the church buildings. and the greater
is the talent that fills the pulpit Both
schools and churches have education
al qualities that should not be lightly
valued. They mean the highest men
tai and moral development, and upon
this development depends the good
citizenship and the advancement and
| perpetuation of the nation.

GOOD ROADS MOVEMENT.
Millions Of Dollars Annually Saved to
the Farmers Of the United States.

One OF the most important move.
ments that has been inaugurated OF
recent years, and which has resulted
in wonderful benefit to the people is
the good roads movement. Within the
United States there are approximately
about 100000 farmers. II during a
year each OF those farmers can be
saved $40 in time, or in wear and tear
upon horses and wagons by means OF
improved roads, il means a saving OF
SS0,00000O annually; but the truth is
that the improved roads that have
been built up the past half dozen years
through agitation OF the good roads
movement saves each farmer in the
land from $50 to 800. Thus 1t can be
seen that the savings brought about
through this movement aggregate hun
dreds of millions OF dollars each year
Good roads are important to the
progressive town. This fact has be
come so recognized that wherever
there exists a live agricultural town
its citizens will be found to be staunch
advocates OF road improvement, and
there is a civic pride and friendly com
petition in the matter of having good
roads leading to the towns. The work
of road improvement has only fairly
begun. A number OF state legislatures
have taken up the work and during
the next dozen years great changes
will be wrought as to the building and
maintenance Of public highways.

OVERLOOKED OPPORTUNITIES.
Chances in Average Small Town for
Proftably Engaging in Business.


According to the United States CEN
sus OF 1900 there was produced In the
United States 1898 ,662, ,433 dozen eggs.
The same statistics give the annual
production of poultry at 250,623,114.
The butter made on farms each year
is in excess of 1,000,000,000 pounds.
The cheese made on farms averages
about 20000,000 pounds annually.
These statistics are interesting, and
with each farmer growing poultry and
eggs and making butter and cheese. 1t
hardly seems possible that such COM
binations as dairy trusts and egg and
poultry trusts could exist, but that
they do is nevertheless fact.
Every small town in farming dis.
trict can command sufficient butter
egg and poultry trade to support a
prosperous exclusive produce estab
lishment. The practice has generally
obtained in agricultural districts OF
storekeepers in various lines taking
farmers produce I'm exchange for
goods. The produce thus received by
merchants is forwarded to the com.
mission houses in the large city, and
these houses are factors that make 1t
possible to maintain trusts in the pro.
duce business. 1t appears that IL each
town had its exclusive produce estab.
lishment to buy what the farmer has
to sell instead of the produce going
through the local stores, that better
prices could be paid the farmers and
the business made a most profitable
one If rightly conducted.
According to the natural laws OF
business industry succeeds best where
advantages are most abundant. Thus
1t seems that the produce offers a
most excellent field in the majority OF
agricultural towns.
