ALL FOND OF MAKING NOISE.
IT'S the Way of Mankind to Seek to
Create an Impression.

Lincoln" said Mr. MaeGilkamby.
told a story about little steamboat
running on the Wabash river with a
whistle so big that when the captain
blew it he had to tie up to the bank
for an hour or two to get up steam
enough to go on. He had only little
boat, but he wanted to make as much
noise as anybody on the river And
isn't it So in way, with our friends
the automobiliSts? If you don't see
it you can't tell by the sound of the
horn whether the machine coming is
a veritable battle ship of a car with a
limousine body and with IA extra
tires clamped to it, and with hampers
and baskets strapped to it all over,
and with seven trunks on the roof, a
regular house on wheels driven by
100 horsepower engine; or a rickety
little secondhand two horsepower
runabout, for the foppy little runabout
is altogether likely to carry a bigger
and louder horn than the majestic
touring car. And still, are steamboat
men and automobilists the only people
that like to put up big front? Don't
we all of US, big and little, like to
make all the noise we can in the
world?"

UNCLE SAM IN ROLE OF CUPID.
Forced to Act as Matrimonial Agent in
the Philippines.

One of the little details that fall to
the Philippine government is that of
finding husbands for the orphan girls
of the institution, bearing the name of
the Hospicio de San Jose, and to do
this is no easy matter. Before the
Filipino will consent to go to the altar
he has to be shown a monetary advan-
tage-in fact, bride without a dowry
wouldn't get husband in a thousand
years. Uncle Sans agents, after
wondering why there was such
dearth of bridegrooms for their pretty
charges of the Hospicio, finally dis
covered that in order to marry them
OFF dowries would have to be found.
AS the result matrimonial brokerage
commission has been formed. Through
this, $3.50 is offered to any young
Filipino of good character who will
take one of the orphan maids as his
life mate, but no bargain is closed I'M
til after official cupids have thorough
ly examined into the history of the
husband-to-be.

LYDIA E. PINKHAM

Nature and a woman's work COM
bined have produced the grandest
remedy for woman's ills that the
world has ever known.
In the good ld-fashioned days of
our grandmothers they relied upon
the roots and herbs Of the field to
cure disease and mitigate suffering.
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 E. Pinkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
of the world a remedy for their pc
culiar ills, more potent and ef1ca-
cious than any combination of drugs.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for woman's ills.
Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 515 NC. St.,
Louisiana, Mo-, writes:
complete restoration to health
means SO much to me that for the sake
of other suffering women am willing
to make my troubles public.
"For twelve years had been suffer-
ing with the worst forms of female ills.
During that time I had eleven different
physicians without help. No tongue
can tell what 1 suffered, and at times I
could hardly walk. About two years
ago l wrote Mrs. Pinkham for advice.
L followed it, and can truly say that
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice re-
stored health and strength. It is
worth mountains of gold to suffering
women"
What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound did for Mrs. Muff,
it will do for other suffering women.

Warming In Time,

In his desire to use fine language,
the darby of the south frequently al
lows his ideas to become a trife con-
fused, as well as confusing. A hand
bill announcing "colored picnic" to
be held in a grove near Mobile was
once freely circulated. After various
enticing announcements concerning
the delights in store for the psrtakers
in this entertainment, the bill con-
cluded with the following perplexing
notice, printed in italics: Good be-
havior will be strictly and reservedly
enjoined upon all present, and moth
ing will be left undone which will tend
to mar the pleasure of the company

First Printer Found

A French semi-scientific magazine
does away with the discussion as to
who was the first printer. Here is it's
story: When Agesilaus observed be-
fore the battle that made his name
that his soldiers doubted success, he
wrote on his hands, inverting the let
tiers, the word Victory" in Greek, Of
course. When the priest appeared
with the sacrifice, bulls liver, the
great captain laid his hand on the
flesh and kept it there for some time
After he removed it the word "Vic-
tory" was printed there, patent to all
eyes, and this Greek was undoubtedly
the first printer The soldiers saw
what they supposed to be "a message
from the gods and fought like lions.
