HUSBAND
TIRED OF SEEING
her SUFFER
Procured Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound,
which made His Wife
a Well Woman.

Middletown, Pa.-ttI had headache,
backache and such awful bearing down
pains that l could not be on my feet at
times and / had organic inflammation SO
badly that l was not able to do my work.
I could not get q good meal for my hus-
band and one child. My neighbors said
they thought m~ysuffering was terrible.
"My husband got tired of seeing me
suffer and one night went to the drug
store and got me a bottle Of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
told me I must take it. I can't tell you
all I suffered and I can't tell you all that
your medicine has done for me. I was
greatly benefited from the first and it
has made me a well woman. I can do
all my homework and even helped some
of my friends as well. I think it is q
wonderful help to all suffering mi
have got several to take it after see
ing what it has done for me."-Mrs.
EMMA E~sPENsHADE, 219 East Main St,

So much for the other boaster. E#
Many of these. portraits were shown at the
Chicago Art Institute exhibition, having been
loaned by their owners, notably the Queen Eliza
beth of Roumania the Lincoln, the Grant. the
Clay, the Calhoun, and others. While his vigor-
ticularly successful with public men. he yet had
equal success with the feminine character, as
may be noted in the Queen Of Roumania and
other noted women; and one of the most re-
markable pictures of the late exhibition is that
ola Girl With Pitcher" which was painted at
one sitting, at the studio of Baron eros, in Paris,
in 1895, when he was but twenty-five years OF
age, the color being marvellous, something like
an echo, 1t might be said, of Thomas Couture,
then also a young man, but a~fterward a famous
one.
The portrait of Franz Liszt, sitting at the
piano, with a rapt musical expression, is the
List that the world knows-the musical and
general world; the List Holding a Candle" be-
trays a rapt religious expression. quite another
expression, such as this wonderful artist could
discern and depict; the painting showed the
great musical genius during his temporary re-
Iigious Madness. SO to speak, when it will be
remembered he renowned the world. and de
cIared he would end his days in a monkish instj-
tuition, which of course he did not do. but came
forth again the musician par excellence.
The romance of the two artists is really quite
a remarkable one, and the paintings they have
produced illustrate most grand1y the lives of two
earnest boys who were inspired by the high mo
tives that urged each to a most honorable ca.
reer, and made the dreams come true" that were
born of the boyish boastings,

Had None to Spare.

There was a miners picnic at Butte
one Sunday. One of the features was
a tug-of-war between a team Of Irish
miners and a team of Slovaks.
The Slovaks were winning and the
Irishmen dropped the rope and began
to fight. 1t was a good fight. One
brawny Irishman had an opponent
down and was pounding him at his
leisure, when a friend came along.
Gimme a belt at him." said the
friend.
"Gwan,' replied the other; "go and
get one for yourself"

glorious feats Of arms by the French army dur
Ing his reign were the capture of the Malakoh
and the grim Mamelon during the Crimean war.
His most famous field marshals were MacMahon,
Duke of Magenta, and the Duke of Malakof.
The great victory of Solferino, in 1859, took
place on the banks of the Mincio, and the cities
of Mantua and Milan played an important role
during the campaign. The Mexican war and the
execution OF the Emperor Macmillan caused his
power to wane perceptibly; Malmesbury was the
name Of his most intimate friend in English po-
litical life. Sedan, which witnessed his fall, is on
the banks of the Meuse. The surrender of Metz
rendered his restoration to power impossible. and
