SAvAGERY OF A CENTURY AGO.
Poor Woman's Execution Then Mat.
 ter of Little Moment.

The hanging of woman, which fn these days calls forth public protests. was apparently matter of indiffer. emce to our grandfathers and grand. mothers, says the London Chronicle. It was in the nineteenth century that a woman found guilty of some trifling offense was sentenced to death. By chance the warrant for her execution was not sent to the high sheriff, and she remained in prisonl for about three years, acting as a jail erwoman,- and occasionally, as a favor iI1 ac.' knowledgement of her good behavior. going out, as was then the custom, as washerwoman to private houses. But a clerk looking through the home off, flee records found the warrant that had never been dispatched, and it was thereupon promptly forwarded to. the sheriff for due process. The woman was found by the turnkey at the wash tub in house in the town-Aylesbury Well, missus," said he, you are to be hanged The warrant has come at last, and we must carry the sentence out tomorrow morning at the latest" Very well. then" the wretched woman submissively replied, T sup pose must go,' and having washed the soapsuds off her arms departed with the official. She was duly hanged next morning. From all which it would seem that barely a century separates us from a condition of primitive bar barism.

No other medicine has been Sd successful ill relieving the suffering ofsWomen or received so many gen. pine testimonials as has Lydia F. Pinkhan'sV Vegetable Compound.
 In every community you will find women who have been restored to health by Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg etable Compound. Almost every one you meet has either been bene. tited by it, or has friends who have.
 In the Pinkham Laboratory as Lynn, Mass, any wornanany day may see the files containing over one mil- lion one hundred thousand letters from women seeking health, and here are the letters in which they openly state over their own sigma. lures that they were cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
 Lydia B. Pinlham's Vegetable Compound has saved many women from surgical operations.
 Lydia D. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound' is made from roots and herbs, without drugs, and Is whole some and harmless.
 The reason why Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound is so successful is because it contains in- gradients which act directly upon the feminine organism, restoring it to healthy normal condition.
 Women who are suffering from those distressing ills peculiar to their sex should not lose sight of these facts or doubt the ability of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound to restore their health.

MODERN DEMAND FOR SILENCE.
German Newspapers Protest It Is Be-

How the times change." says a writer in the Frankfurter Zeitung. "In the days of our fathers no description of a homelike, cosy room was con- plete without a reference to the tick ing clock It was this gentle sound which emphasized the quiet of the place. People had no nerves in those days. To-day the thought of a ma cline ticking off the seconds and strik- ing the hours is source of worry and distress. Time is going, but they do not wish to be reminded of it continu- ally; no clock is better than the tick ing machine And now to meet the re- quirements of the nervous people, a factory at Schramburg is making noiseless clock" In an article on the same subject another paper says: "The anti-noise craze has made disa' gfeeable and uncomfortable some of the noises which once were music to us, and soon we will find way to silence the birds and to muffie the sound oi the rustling leaves"
