20 Years
With Hearth rouble

CDR. Miles Heart Remedy has
cured me of heart disease of
over 20 years standing. 1 was
so bad that 1 could not do my
work, and could scarcely draw
a full breath without fainting or
smothering. The doctor told me
he could do no more for me;
then 1 commenced taking the
Heart Remedy. l shall never
forget that night. 1 slept better
than l had before in months. [
kept right on getting better, I'M
til I was perfectly we'll"
MRS. LAURA RUSSELL,
Logan, Iowa.
When the heart action is
weak, it fails to pump the blood
through the lungs with sufficient
rapidity. Then the lungs do not
absorb the proper amount Of
oxygen, although they may be
taking in a normal amount of
air. The result is shortness of
breath, smothering spells, diff
cult breathing, oppressed feeling
in chest. DR.. Miles Heart Rem
edy strengthens the heart nerves
and muscles, and in this way
increases the circulation.
Get bottle from your drug
gist. Take it according to direc-
tons, and If it does not benefit
he will return your money.

Consider This Advice.
No woman should submit TO q surgi-
cal operation, which may mean death,
until she has given Lydia E Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, made exclusive
1y from roots and herbs, q fair trial
This famous medicine for women
has for thirty years proved to be the
most valuable tonic and invigorator of
the female organism. Women resid-
ing in almost every city and town in
the United States bear willing testi-
mony to the wonderful virtue of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
It cures female ills, and creates radi-
ant, buoyant female health. If you
are ill, for your own sake as well as
those you love, give it trial.
Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass,
invites all sick women to write
her for advice. Her advice is free,
and always helpful.

A substitu,e for Alcohol.

The tendency Of people to contract
some sort or another habit Is shown
by the common use In various coun-
tries of tobacco, tea, coffee, opium and
the like. In Abyssinia and parts Of
Arabian Turkey the place Of alcohol Is
taken by the kat plant, which the ma
tives almost universally chew. In parts
of Abyssinia certain tribes chew the
leaves Of the kat plant commonly when
they are compelled to exert special or
long-continued effort, the immediate
effect of which Is to produce an agree.

cation of long duration. with none Of
the disagreeable features Of ordinary
inebriety. Messengers and soldiers are
enabled, by chewing the leaves, to 60
without food for q number Of days.
In parts OF Arabian Turkey there are
cafes for the consumption Of the kat
plant which correspond to the cages in
Europe and America where coffee and
alcohol ars used.

Prevention

domestic animal exhibits a lack of energy,
proper relish for food, or an appearance
Of general debility, timely action should

animals Nature provides certain peculiar
medicinal herbs, leaves, barks and roots
which seem necessary for their health.

SINGULAR JEwELRY.

The esthetic and decorative uses to
which barbarians will turn objects
which to civilized races are things OF
the humblest utility are amusingly IL
lustrated by this fashion note" from
West Africa, taken from an Italian
newspaper:
For some time the officials Of the
German colony In Southwest Africa no
ticed that the telegraph wires and
other accessories Of the electrical plant
disappeared as by magic Immediately
after they had been put up. The most
diligent inquiries remained fruitless.
From other parts Of the German pos
sessions came reports Of strange
predictions for articles of German
commerce, as, for example. rubber
heels, garters. buckles and so forth,
things which the natives of those coun-
tries do not generally use.
The governor of the colony gave an
entertainment one year in honor Of
the emperor's birthday, and invited
the chiefs of the different tribes to It,
What was his surprise when he saw
these native gentlemen appear with
his stolen telegraph wires twisted
round their illustrious necks. The
higher the dignity the more rings Of
the wire were round the neck.
Tnnuirina wera soon atarted IN tha
outlying villages. and 1t came to light
that the white china insulators Of the
telegraph poles had become ear rings.
A young lady Of the highest distinc-
tion in native society wore rubber
heel hanging from her nose, and a
young man who was we'll known
dandy wore dangling from his ears q
pair Of beautiful pink silk .garters.

Once when passing through a GENE
terry in Lenox Eliot Gregory was sur
prised to see that the members of one
old New England family had been bur
lee in circle, with their feet toward

this arrangement. and a wit of that
day, daughter of Mrs. Stowe, replied:

Don't treat children's troubles light.
ly;their trials are as big to them as
those of grown-up people. Don't fail
to instill deep sense Of kindness to
dumb animals-a cruel boy generally
makes cruel man. Don't neglect an
untruth or dishonorable action-teach
your children to face these out and ii
will make them courageous. Don't en-.
courage whining or tale-telling. Don't
