So many of the ills of women are
tdue to habitual constipation, probably
because of their false modesty on the
subject, that their attention cannot be
too strongly called to the Importance
of keeping the bowels open. 1t is
always important to do that, regard
less of the sex, but it is especially
important in women.
From the time the girl begins to
menstruate until mentsruation ceases
she has always vastly better prospects
of coming through healthy if she

the Gloucester was a member of the
class of 1868, one of his classmates be-
ing Seaton Schroeder, one of the
famous sailors of the modern navy.
Admiral Schroeder married Admiral
Wainwright'S sister.
The early career Of Wainwright was
that of an earnest, hard-working Of
f1cer, and it was not until the early
nineties that his name began to be
heard outside of the service. From
1890 to 1898 he commanded the old
Alert, and in 1896 he was ordered to
Washington to become chief intelli-
gence officer of the navy. Two years
later, in November, 1897, he was re-
lieved of that duty and ordered to the
battleship Maine as executive officer
under Capt. Charles D. Sigsbee. From
that day he became public as well as
a naval figure of note.
On the night the Maine was blown
up in Havana harbor Wainwright stood
besides Sigsbee on the quarterback as
Wainwright who issued the order to
lower the lifeboats in which the sur
vivors of the crew escaped. From the
beginning Admiral Wainwright was
one of those who believed the Maine
was not blown up by accident, and
none was more impatient than he for
a chance to avenge the death of the
266 officers, bluejackets, and marines
who went to their death in the battle
ship.
In the interval between the blowing
up of the Maine and the declaration
of war against Spain Wainwright re-
manned on board one of the American
ships that were in the harbor, and dur

Maine Wainwright remained at Ha-

and one by one the officers were or

then that war was coming.
On the day that the last wrecker
was ordered home Admiral Manterolas
the Spanish naval commander in Havana
ordered the Spanish guard to haul
down the American flag floating from
the rigging of the wrecked battleship.
Wainwrikht heard of the order, and
calling an interpreter, he issued an
order that has become famous in the
navy.
When Wainwright got his orders to
come home, he hauled down the nag
himself. On his arrival in Washing

seagoing vessels it could get. and

A Piece of Aluminium Tells All About
Itself.

AS one of the lightest metals known,
am making a very great change in
this world of yours.
Everybody is aware that more and
more cooking utensils are being made
of aluminium, but, may not know that
other striking advances are being made
in my employment.
Soon. in place of the tin and lead
foil used for packing various articles,
from sweets to tobacco, you Will find
that I am being used. Not only is
aluminium foil more healthful, but it
Thus where it takes IL pounds to
line a tea chest, only 6 ounces of
aluminium foil is necessary, there be-
ing a big saving in cost
Printers are using me for all man
ner of purposes, particularly for print
rics The photographer is also proving
false to his name, for he Is using me
instead Of the old fashioned stones.
L am coming to the front now, ow-
ing to the fact that manufacturers are
producing me cheaply. I am made ex-

south of France. 1t is there that the
purest ore is found, this bearing the
name of bauxite.
Chiefly by the aid of italian labor
ers, was dug out of the earth in this
ance. I was taken to Toulon, and
shipped thence to this country.
The first process which awaited me
in your isle was that of publication

which crushed me as fine as flour,
while a strong current of air winnowed
the mass.
Next I was treated with a chemical.
and passed through other processes.
Lastly there was a roasting process,

COMES OF FIGHTING STOCK.

Admiral Wainwright comes of a
famous naval family, and, fortunately
for the service, the name will remain
on the active list after he goes into re-
tirement for his son, Lieut.. 'Dick"
Wainwright, is much like his father
and inherits his affection for the SER
vice af1oat.
The admiral is the second Richard
Wainwright of the navy, his father
having been Commander Richard
Wainwright, one of Farragut's most
brilliant subordinates. He was in COM
mand of the Hartford at the battle of
Fort Fisher, in which Admiral Robley
D. Evans was MANNED for life and
where Farragut won one of his great
est victories.

of nearly five hundred revolutions a
minute, or about eight a second. From
four of these wheels sufficient current
is generated to manufacture 1900 tons
of aluminium.
The reason that there is such a big
future before me is that in ordinary
circumstances resist furnishing as
much as does gold itself. Where sill
yer would turn black, I am not affect
ed, and, while I am not as soft as sill
yer, by hammering or rolling 1 be-
come as hard as iron. Then I am
much lighter than glass, being only a
quarter of the weight of silver, and I
am an excellent conductor of heat and
