Nature and a woman's work co1u-

The Indians on our Western
Plains to-day can produce roots and
herbs for every ailment, and cure
diseases that battle the most skilled
physicians who have spent years in
the study of drugs.
From the roots and herbs of the
field Lydia Z. Pinkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
of the world a remedy for their Pc
culiar ills, more potent and ettica-
cious than any combination ofdrugs-
Lydia Z. Pinkham's Vegetable

standard remedy for woman's ills.

ALL TOO VIGOROUS
LAMB" WAS AN EXCEPTION TO
GENERAL RULE.
Judge Pitman Found Out Its charac'
ter In a Short Time-5ook's De-
scriptloR Not Correct In
This Case.

Judge Pitman, a short time ago.
bought a pet lamb for his little chill
dren to play with. 1t was a pretty
goodsized lamb, and strong and Wig
orous; but the judge said he preferred
that kind, because the children would
be less likely to hurt it.
On the day that it came home they
turned it out into the front yard,
where it strayed about nibbling the
grass, while the Judge tied up his
geraniums.
Mrs. Pitman had the children in the
house and she was reading to them
from a book description of the char
acteristics of lambs The account
said that THE lamb is one of the most
playful and innocent of animals. So
kind and meek is it that its name has
for centuries been the synonym of gen.
tleness and sweetness of disposition.
1t never Injuries any one, and when 1t
is attacked it always suffers humbly
and in silence. There is something SO
beautiful about the gentle little animal
that"
Just at this point Mrs. Pitman was
interrupted by the voice of the judge
coming from the front yard. 1t
sounded as if he were In distress of
some kind.
The whole family flew out upon the
porch, and there they saw that pet
lamb, whose name was the synonym
of gentleness, engaged in butting the
judge. 1t would butt him in the rear
and knock him over, and then it would
butt him in the legs, and batter him
on the ribs, and plunge its head into
his stomach, and jam it's skull against
his chest. When he rose it butted his
shins, and when he stopped over to
rub them it butted his head. Then it
butted him generally wherever a
chance presented itself; and when it
had doubled the judge all up under
the norway maple, it butted down
three rose bushes, butted a plaster
garden vase to fragments, butted two
palings off of the fence, and danced
off down the street, butting at the tree
boxes, the hitching posts and the
northwest wind
Mr. Potter finally knocked it in the
head with club and brought it home
to the judge; and subsequently, when
they had the hind leg for dinner, the
I judge observed to Mrs. Pitman that
from the manner in which that lamb
cut he should believe that it was
born during the war of 1912, and that
it was, in fact, terrific old ram. Then
he said he should go down to see the
man who sold it to him for a lamb
and bang him with a club.

and passed him and went on Into

visit the crypt of the chapel and ex-
anime the opening to the tunnel. Az

He strobe into the chapel porch
with an air of assurance and l heard
him address some one who had been
waiting. The mist was now so heavy
that | could not see my hand before

heard the voices of two men distiS city.
"Bates!"

floor of the porch.

later the third died after two or three

and Bates was the nearest target for
it. l went to the kitchen, where he
usually spent his evenings, to vent my
feelings upon him, only to find him
gone. climbed to his room and found
1t empty. Very likely he was off con-
doing with his friend and fellow con-
spirator, the caretaker, and 1 fumed
with rage and disappointment was
thoroughly tired,-as tired as on days
when l had beaten my way through
tropical jungles without food or water;
but l wished, in my impotent anger
against knew not what agencies, TO
punish myself,-to induce an utter
weariness that would send me ex-
hausted to bed.
The snow in the highway was well
beaten down and l swung off country
ward past st. Agatha's. A gray mist
hung over the fields in whirling clouds,
breaking away occasionally and show
ing the throbbing winter stars. The
walk and my interest in the alterna-
ton of star-lighted and mist-wrapped
landscape won me to better state of
mind, and after tramping couple of
miles, set out for home. Several
times on my tramp had caught my.
self whistling the air of a majestic
old hymn, and smiled, remembering
my young friend olivia, and her play
ing in the chapel. She was an anus
ing child; the thought of her further
lifted my spirit; and l turned into the
school park when l reached the outer
gate with a half-recognised wish to
pass near the barracks where she
spent her days.
At the school gate the lamps of a
carriage suddenly blurred in the mist.
Carriages are not common in this re-
gion, and was not surprised to find
that this was the familiar village hack
that met trains day and night at An
nandale. Some parent, conjectured
