A Discovery.

Bill Biggins had to walk down town
His face was mighty sad.
He murmured, with dreary frown
That things were getting bad.
For he had hurried to and fro
In luxury complete
Until he almost didn't know
The usefulness Of feet.
A little golf he sometimes played,
And then he stoutly strobe;
The latest dances he essayed-
At other times he rode.
But when he Was compelled to 60
A-walking down the street,
Z really eheered him up TO know
He had such useful 3eet

The Order of Merit carries with 1t no special title or order of precedence, so that MT. Henry James, in accepting that honor, was not embarrassed in any courtIy trappings. In one respect the most democratic order, it is in others the most exclusive not only in England but perhaps ill the whole world. The Order of the Thistle and the Order of St. Patrick have fewer members on their rolls, it is true, though the companionship of the Or der of Merit has at times been smaller than either of them. King Edwards order is limited to 24, but it has never yet been filled, and with the addition of Mr. Henry James numbered IS.

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound? My mother bought it and the next month I was so well that 1 worked all the month without staying at home day. l am in good health now and have told lots of girls about it. Miss CLARICE MORN, % Russell Street, Taunton, Mass.
 Thousands of girls suffer in silence every month rather than consult phy- sicien. If girls who are troubled with painful or irregular periods, backache, headache, dragging-down sensations, fainting spells or indigestion would take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Con- pound, a safe and pure remedy made from roots and herbs, much suffering might be avoided.
