NOT ANNOYED, OF COURSE
Capt Butt Was Merely Giving to His
Friend Few Philosophical
Reflections.

Capt Archibald w. Butt, the prest

answer telephone call

other end of the wire, Il called you
up to tell you that I shall not be able
to keep the appointment | made with
you for eleven o'clock today"
I'm sorry said Butt, his tone a
trihe chilly.
Yes; it's too bad" agreed the
other,
There ensued an ominous pause

Simkins, little bald man, seated him

On the rack was fsrocious crab in a

When my boy was about three

watery fluid. We tried everything we
could but he got worse all the time,

an organism untitled for the trial of
strength, and when the strain is over
her system has received shock from
which it is hard to recover. Follow
ing right upon this comes the nervous
strain of caring for the child, and q
distinct change In the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
a happy and healthy mother of chill
dren. and indeed childbirth under right
conditions need be no hazard to health
or beauty. The unexplainable thing Is
that, with all the evidence of shattered
nerves aud broken health resulting
from an unprepared condition, women
will persist in going blindly to the trial.
1t isn't as though the experience
came upon them unawares. They have
ample time in which to prepare, but
they, for the most part, trust to chance
and pay the penalty.
In many homes once childless there
are now children because of the fact
that Lydia f. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound makes women normal,
healthy, and strong.
ANY woman who would like
special advice In regard to this
matter is cordially invited to
write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn,
Mass. Her letter will be held in
strict confidence.

GUS and unfilial children. Technically,
this shield is known as the Division
of Domestic Relations, Department of
Public Charities" In simpler phrase,
it is the court Of appeal for every
father and mother, whose children re-
fuse to support them In their old age,
writes Anna Steese Richardson in the
New York World.
Though its doors, day after day,
files line of enfeebled, decrepit,
penniless, hopeless humanity pleading
for a corner in which they may await
the coming of the grim reaper, just a
little corner, little warmth. little
raiment, little food. And after them
files another line of the next genera
tion, some of them sullen, some of
them hard. some of them ashamed,
but all of them guilty of deliberately
Sinking their responsibilities as chill

quires a broad knowledge of human

hear both sides of the story, and wis

And above all things, these workers
must have the tact and the sympathy
to touch chords Of tenderness and
duty long silent.
The work starts in the basement
of the once fashionable brownstone
residence, No. 124 East Fifty-n1nth

she stopped to ask for directions

And so she opens the door and
steps inside, candidate for the aims

pense.
The clerk behind the freshly gilded
latticework of futed iron asks her
few questions. Then comes quick
decision.
"Oh, il you have three sons they
must take care of you. You didn
want to go to the almshouse. Go VI
to the third floor, division of domestic
relations, and they will hunt up You

The STOPPING figure climbs the
