WOMAN'S MOST
SUCCESSFUL
MEDICINE
Known All Over The World
known Only For The
Good Ii Has Done.

We know of no other medicine which
has been so successful in relieving the
suffering Of women, or received so many
genuine testimonials, as has Lydia E.
Pinkham s Vegetable Compound
In nearly every community you will
find women who have been restored to
health by this famous medicine. Almost
every woman you meet knows of the
great good it has been doing among
suffering women for the past 80 years.
In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass, are files containing hundreds OF
thousands of letters from women SEEK
ing health, in which many openly state
over their own signatures that they have
regained their health by taking Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
many of whom state that it has saved
them from surgical operations.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound is made from roots and herbs,
and is perfectly harmless.
The reason why it is so successful IS
because it contains ingredients which act
directly upon the female organism, re-
storing it to healthy and normal activity.

DuELlNG OF FRENCH WOMEN
Several Historical Instances Of the
Fair Sex Meeting on the Field
Of Honor.

If Mile. ARIA Ly could induce the
Toulouse editor to accept her chal-
lenge she would not be the first
Frenchwoman to fight duel. When
dueling had reached such a pitch
that Louis XIII. took measures to
put it down it was reported that
two ladies of the court had met with
pistols. The king laughingly said
that his prohibition applied only to
men. In the following century the
Marquise de Neste and the Comtesse
de Polignac, having quarreled about
the Due de Richelieu. exchanged
shots in the Bots de Boulogne. Nine.
de Nesle fired first and missed.
"Anger makes the hand tremble,"
her antagonist remarked, sarcastical-
ly, before firing a shot which carried
away part of the marqnise's ear. And
the marquise fell as though dead
from the ear piercing.-London
Chronicle.

DIAMOND BITS ARE COSTLY
Fair Value, for the Eight Needed in
Drilling In Rock 10 About
$500.

A diamond bit for rock drilling is
quite an expensive article. Its value,
however, will undergo fluctuations,
dependent upon the price of the dia-
monds. Perhaps $500 is a fair value
for bit. The diamond used is ex-
ccedingly hard-harder than those
usually used as jewclry. Their carat
price is considerable, averaging, say,
at $50 a carat. The diamonds used
will weigh from one to two carats, so
that eight have a value ranging from
$3.50 to 5000, on the average. The
loss of a bit means SO many Ola
monds gone and may lead to diff
Guilty with the hole. The diamond is
not tough, but brittle. 1t will with
stand heavy pressure if applied even
ly and without shock. 1t can read
lily be seen that drilling through
seamy rock may become quite unfa-
vorablc. If there is much quartz
present the abrasion may become ex-
cessive. Under ordinary conditions,
however, the wear on the diamonds,
while considerable, is by no means
prohibitive.-Cassier's Magazine.

UMBRELLA IN ENGLAND.

The umbrella is gaining ground
in England. 1t has long been the
popular impression in this country
that all Englishmen carry umbrellas
whether it is raining or not, but it
is only of late that the smart, slen-
der, tightly rolled umbrella has been
driving out the cane. During the
last summer there was a marked re-
.vival of sticks, but with the advent
Of the autumn rains they are going
back to the rack, and the place Of
the umbrella is as secure as before.
In this country except perhaps in
circles where London styles are faith
fully followed, there seems to be a
slight falling off, if anything, in the
use of umbrellas, for which motor
ing and the popularity of waterproof
coats have been held responsible.

OPENING UP FRENCH ALPS
Touring Club Plans New Automobile
Route From Lake Geneva
to the Sea.

Americans who take their motor
cars to France few of them, at
least-have explored the beauties Of
the French Alps between Lake Ge-
neva and the Riviera. But to the
ordinary tourist this is an almost
closed region. Only a few points
within it can be reached by railroad,
and the roads have not been of the
best.
The Touring club Of France ten
years ago tried to have better roads
opened through this interesting re-
gion, but its appeals met with Off
cial indifference.
Now, however, the railroads have
seen the possibilities, and there has
this summer been inaugurated a
service of automobiles, combined
with what railways there are, from
Nice to Evian on Lake Geneva.
The Touring club is planning,
with the aid of the now interested
officials to secure improved roads
that will make easy automobile rid
ing the entire distance, avoiding the
railroads entirely. When completed
this route will be close to the Italian
frontier alomst the whole journey.
It will make accessible some of the
quaintest of rock villages, and will
range in climate from the almost
tropical vegetation of the Riviera to
the barren, snow-clad slopes Of the
mountain passes.

EASILY SUITED.

When glasses are worn chiefly to
give their wearer an impressive Aap-
pearance, it is necessary that they be
fitted in other respects than the
vision, as was recently discovered by
young southern woman whose col
ored maid one day approached her
with request.
''Miss Bessie, if you are going
down town today, l wish you would
buy my sister, who lives in North
Carolina, pair of glasses"
"Why, Annie" replied the young
lady, IL could not get your sister a
pair Of glasses. She has to have her
eyes examined and the glasses fitted
to them"
"Oh," said Annie, reassuringly,
"she wrote me what fit my nose fit

Old records brought to light in

esting figures of many years ago.
Cows we're quoted in 1887 at 81 to
$40; horses, $25 to $40; hogs, head,
$1.25 to $1.5O; a nice veal calf sold
for rs cents; eggs, 3 cents a dozen,
and deer hams, IS cents each. One
