1t is the faithful woman in the
home, who does the cooking, sweep
ing, busting, washing and ironing, am
bilious to keep her home as neat as a
pin, and often having two or three
children who require care and atten-
ton, who calls for our sympathy. Ov-
erwork is the result. Outraged nature
asserts itself in time and female trou-
bles appear.
Such women should remember that
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound is the exact medicine they need
when their strength is overtaxed and
female weakness and arrangements
make life burden. For nearly forty
years it has been the standard REM
edy for such troubles.

Americas attorneys have another
week of respite from court duties in
addition to that just ended and which
hClongtd to Stewart court, had the

BIRD WITH HANDS.
Peculiarly Of the Strange toatxin Of
British Guiana.

The Hoatzin, a native of british
Guiana. Is described as a bird with
hands" And the popularity in its
structure which leads 10 this descrip-
tion is the possession Of two free
claws on tie wing of the young
The nest Ct the Hoatzin is placed in
a tree overhangine the water and the
young. unlike most birds hatehed in
such position. are active from the
first. And the claws at the ends of
The wings are used 70 assist it in
climbing trees, which it does with
great deXterity in its early days.
The growth of the outermost quill
feathers of the wing, which might
hamper the free use OF the claws. Is
retarded till tie rest Of the wing is
developed sufficiently 10 render climb
ing loss necessary. Then they grow
and the claws are absorbed and dis
appear. The adult bird does not re-
quire them. Should Il young Hoatzir
fan into the water it makes for the
shero and seizes branch up which
it quickly climbs
1t has been pointed out that the
young of game birds show evidence
Of having formerly possessed similar
structures on the wings 1t is there
fore inferred that they had similar
habit, and that in former times they
/ built and reared their young in trees
In this greup-ineluding The barn
door fowl-the quill feathers of the
wing are still developed in the same
order as in the Hoatzin, that Is. the
outer ones are delayed until the
others have reached a certain stage.
Traces of the free claws. moreover.
can still be found in the embryo.
And it is interesting in this connec-
ton to remember that even now the
pheasant occasionally builds and
hasehes its young in tree.
The most interesting point. per-
haps, in connection with the free claws
Of The Hoatzin Is that they recall the
remarkable structure Of the earliest
bird Yet known to geology Arch
aecptnrpyx, literally the ancient
wing was bird about the size OF
rock.
Although The earliest known bird.
| Atehaeopteepyx, was probably not the
earliest wearer of feathers to appear
or earth. Future discovery may re-
veal Vet earlier members of the
feathered race. This most ancient
bird resembled Hoatzin in having
free claws 10 it's wings, and perhaps
like i, used them in climbing. But
while the Hoatzin discarded its claws
in adult life, Archaeopterpyx seems
Ia have retained them.-London
