Thousands of American women
in our homes are daily sacrificing
their lives to duty.
In order to keep the home neat
and pretty, the children well dressed
and tidy, women overdo. A female
weakness or displacement is often
brought on and they suffer in silence,
drifting along from bad to worse,
knowing well that they ought to
have help to overcome the pains and
aches which daily make life burden.
It is to these faithful women that

DRANK TO SAVE A CITY.
A Legend of the Quaint Old Town
of RotheEburR.

Much Is made of the legends and his
tory of the quaint medieval town of
Rothenburg, as is natural where they
lay so much stress on their past glo-
ries, says the Metropolitan Magazine.
The shop windows are full of big glass
cups with painted figures of the en-
peror, the seven electors and other
worthless (souvenirs for the unwary
tourist, and in some of the decora-
tons of inns and wine rooms man

Georg Nusch and to q Meister-Trunk.
We wondered about it till we found
a local guide book with the explana-

turtles ago. He was a senator and
son of the innkeeper of the Rother
Hahn (Red Cock, which is still stand

Many of the inns are hundreds Of years
old and are run under the same names
they have always borne. Well during
the wars of the reformation this was
q Protestant town and was besieged
and taken by lilly after a spirited
resistance. He entered the place fol-
lowed by his train and proceeded to
the Rathus, where the burgermeister
and the senators were assembled, and
in the barbarous style of those days
ordered that they all be beheaded.
Then there was such wailing and en-
treaties from the wives and children

four, but the rest would not listen to
this and said all of them or none, or
something to that effect, and the bur-
germeister was sent off to get the ex-
ecutioner. At length. when everything
was in a great uproar, lilly called for
drinks, and trembling barmaid
brought him a great stirrup cup of
Tauber wine. He drank from 1t and
passed 1t on to some of his men, and
still it wasn't emptied when suddenly
struck by its size and being in bet

thinking that would at least be the
pleasanter death and probably used to
drinking a great deal, said he would
try it. Everybody was breathless with
suspense, fearing he would give out
before emptying the cup. but on and
on he went till the last drop was drain

to hand the cup to lilly and say, Thy

ground. He recovered in a few days.

A PECULIAR MAN.
His Name Was Lazarus, and He Had
. Peculiar Experience.

I'm one Of my voyages from Cape
Town to England" writes a traveller.
II shared my cabin with a peculiar
man, whose name was Lazarus. He
made me promise that II he should die
during the voyage I would prevent his
burial at sea. He said that on pre-
vious voyage he had fallen sick and
was taken for dead and put into a sack
for burial. A quartermaster had been
put on to watch the body until IL was
time for the funeral. When the burial
party arrived the quartermaster in
formed the captain that he thought the
body had moved in the sack. The sack
came to life again. Such was the
story Lazarus told me. Lazarus was
thin man with a sallow face. He
had an enormous appetite and appear
ed at every meal, TO which he devoted
his whole energies. The good feeding
only seemed TO add TO his corpselike
appearance. One evening, sure enough.
when we were about halfway TO our
voyages end, he apparently died again.
The doctors took him in charge this
time, however, and he came out of his
trance without any shotted sack cpl
sode. He was met at the London
docks by a number Of relatives and
friends, all of whom looked as il they
might be suffering from the same COM
plant"
