Mrs. Robert = il jgak. the early part of the year 1902 I had been a sulTerer from kidney troubles for many years. The pain in my baek became worse and worse until it was a daily buwlen that interfered wirti every duty. I was much afflicted with head aches and dizzy spells and was unable to rest well nights. In May 1903 after using Doan's Kidney Pills I made a statement for publication declaring that they had entirely relieved me of the pain in my baek. I have since then had a year's time in which to study the effects of the medicine, and while I have had slight touches of the trouble since, the use of the pills has always j driven away all signs of the disorder and I have become convinced of the I fact that the first treatment was prac- ! tically permanent in its effects, and I know that a box of Doan's Kidney Pills ' kept on hand is a sufficient guarantee against any suffering from the kidneys | or back. I should advise every sufferer | to take Doan's Kidney Pills, and I know that they will be surprised and pleased with the result." A FREE TRIAL of this great kidney medicine which cured Mrs. Broderick will be mailed on application to any part of the United States. Address Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y.

Annie I'pklow Operates Tnn lliu Cyl inders in it Ml. I.ouin Otlice and lleluiiKi* to Lnlon. Annie Feglow, of No, 30ifi Missouri avenue, claims to be the only woman pressman in the United Stales, says the St. Louis Republic. For five years she has operated two cylinder presses at 314 North Third street. The firm consider* her one of its best workmen. Miss I'eglow entered the employ of the company 20 years ago as a press feeder. At that time women press feeders were a novelty, but since many girls have entered that branch of the printing business, smd now some of the larger printing companies hire hun dreds of women jiress feeders. Kunning a cylinder press was never thought of as woman's work until it occurred to Miss I'eglow. None has tried it since. She was an enthusiastic printer and she determined to learn all about the business. "I just 'nosed' about until I 'caught on'; then 1 to try and convince my boss that I was as good a pressman as any of the men and finally I a trial, which proved successful, and here I am," is the way she explains her presence before her two big machines. She belongs to Pressmen's Union No. 6. In order to allow her to enter the union the international body of press men allowed their constitution to be amended so as to admit her. It caused quite a little discussion at the time. Miss I'eglow does not attend the meetings of her local, however. She leaves the transaction of nil union business to the men and abides by MISS PEGT;OW AT WORK. their decisions. She dees not attend the meetings because she is the only woman member and her presence there alone, she thinks, would appear too bold. Every morning at 8 o'clock she ap pears before her machines, dons her blue calico dress, which is made of cloth similar to the goods used in jumpers and overalls, and superin tends the turning out of the large printed sheets. She excels in color wojk which em braces two, three, or m»re colors, and is considered especially good in dainty work, which she is always consulted about by the heads of the firm. Although elbowing men all day long In pursuit of her duties. Miss Peglow says she cannot agree with Mrs. Clax on and her ideas on the "Ideal Wife" or the deterioriation of chivalry. "I do not think," said she, "because a woman works for a living that it de tracts a particle from her womanly graces; neither do 1 think that a wo man that works is not as good a house wife as t he girl who spends all her time at home. I think to get out in the world and work serves to broaden one's ideas, and I am sure some of the workers appreciate their homes a great deal more from the fact that they are at home so little. To work shows one how fortunate the woman who does not have to work really is.

CHARMING OLD LADY. The OrlKinnl of C'luirlrn Dlckena* "Little llorrit" Ileenll* Novel lat'a Happy Youth. Who that has read Dickens has not loved and admired the "child of the Marslialsea," the sweet and charming Little Dorrit? All of us have loved her as a child of a bygone age, yet still "Little Dorrit" is amongst us, hearty and well. Airs. Mary Ann Cooper, of Southgate, now in her ninetieth year, is the original of Dickens' famous character, although the life depicted in the book cannot be said to corre spond with her own, for Mrs. Cooper herself was never in that dreary debt ors' prison. She was born on Novem ber 27, 1813, in Hat ton Garden, her father being a well-to-do farmer named Mitton, who also had a place at Sunbury, at which Dickens'in his early youth was a frequent visitor. The bed MRS. MART COOPER. (Charming Old Lady Who Is the Original of Dickens' "I-ilttle Liorrltt.") "Little Dorrit" now sleeps on at South gate is one Charles Dickens slept on there. A few years later the Mitton® were living in Johnson street, Clarendon square, and a house directly opposite was occupied by the Dickens family. There began the acquaintance with "My Charles," as the old lady calls the novelist. Mrs. Cooper's brother was a school fellow of Dickens, and would as sist him in his literary work by cor recting manuscripts, as in later years he assisted him in law matters. Be tween Mary Ann and Charles the clos est friendship—almost ripening into something more—sprang up, and the old lady is never tired of telling their adventures and misadventures in the heyday of youth—how they would call at a little place in the Hampstead road, where Cecil Rhodes' grandfather, "a grumpy old man," would serve them with milk; how after church he would take her for a walk to "New St. I'an cras church" for the special purpose of staring at and taking off the pom pous beadle who used to strut about its precincts —Dickens imitating his walk and bearing, to the delight of others, but to the great indignation of this prototype of Bumble; how Dick ens was out walking when he met a procession of school girls from a se date boarding school, headed by a par ticularly prim and severe principal, and how, seeing an old apple woman, Dickens bought up her stock and slyly slipped two apples into the hands of each girl and stood by when the horri fied principal discovered her "very se lect" establishment munching apples in the street. Once when staying at Mrs. Cooper's home at Sunbury, Charles went out, and borrowing some old clothes, dis guised himself as a farm laborer in search of work, and s» clever was his makeup that he completely deceived the shrewd farmer, who, not having work for him, was prevailed upon to allow him a place and some straw in one of his barns, where he might pass the night. Dickens had a habit of giving nick numes to his friends and relatives, as he had a way of giving literary names to his sons; his name for Miss Mitton was Little Dorrit. "Why did he give you this name?" I asked, and the old lady said: "I really cannot say. It seemed to come; at any rate, 1 only recollect that somehow I was always 'Dorrit' with Charles." "And how did you come to get into the Marshalsea, and be famous ever afterwards?" "Well, i can't exactly say, but as I have told you, Charles and I were, I think 1 may say, very fond of one an other, and one day at home he told us: 'The next book I write I shall put you ij it, and I shall call it "Little Dorrit." Thus his next work was named." .Now, in her ninetieth year, Mrs. Coop er is lively and quick, although she has had some serious accidents in the course of her long life. Once she was thrown from her horse and dragged for three-quarters of a mile. She has suffered, too, from rheumatism, and is rather deaf. Mrs. Cooper has been a widow fur over 30 years, and now liiti alone—in a little room crammed with How ei sand fancies, and u chimney cor ner which is a perfect gallery of por traits, with a notable one, of course of "My Charles." Over the mantelpiac* is one of tho»e curious old "samplers" which our trrsndiitnthers Used so labo riously tn produce, made by "Mary ,\tin !

Ilaplil Rrttlrmrat of the Wheat Field* IjinK North of the 49th Parallel. [From the Chicago Record-Herald.l "Oanadahas anticipated a very heavy immigration thisyear, and she now has figures to show that she is actually i getting it jn a way to meet all her expectations. In the first foxir I months of this year the doors of the I Dominion opened to 40,672 persons, ! according to a report prepared by the committee on agriculture and I colonization of the Canadian parlia [ ment. This is almost twice as large |as the immigration in the corre sponding months last year, and fully I three times as largo as in 1901, the respective figures being 22,482 and 13,393. "Most of these newcomers have been attracted by the wheat lands of the Northwest territories. They have moved direct from Winnipeg and they have turned that city into a great camp, in which they have been fitting themselves out for the last stage of their adventure for new homes. "Of the immigration of this spring a little over a third has come from Great Britain, the figure being 16,- 457. This is three times as large as the British immigration of the cor responding months of the preceding year, and it is within 2,500 of the number of immigrants that the United States attracted from Great Britain and Ireland in the same period this spring. As to the re mainder of the immigration into Canada, 13,770 settlers came from the United States, a 50 per cent, increase over the preceding year, and 10,445 from Continental Europe, a 40 per cent, increase. "These 40,672 immigrants into Canada may appear trifling in com parison with the 297,070 persons who entered the United States in the same period, but they are propor tionately more Important to the country. Canada's populatibn is one fifteenth of ours, but her immigra tion is now two-fifteenths as large as ours. It is worth remembering also that Canada's immigrants are almost entirely of Anglo-Saxon and Teuton ic races, while our immigration is now two-thirds made up of Romance and Slav elements. "Speculation is natural as to the future of Canada in her relations to the United States when her North west territories are filled up, but the one absolutely certain fact of the near future is that the United States is to have a great competitor in the grain markets of the world." The above editorial article taken from the columns of the Chicago Record-Herald of May 2 20th shows the condition of the Canadian Im migration, which as pointed out, has had a constant grow.th—a marvelous ly increasing growth—for the past six or seven years, until this year, it is confidently assumed the increase to Canada's population, by way of Immigration, will exceed 100,000. This is accounted for by the great ogricultnral resources winch abound there. It is no fairy tale, but the matter-of-fact experience of the tens of thousands bear ample testimony to the wealth and riches in store for all who choose to accept of the op portunities offered. Those who wish to learn more of the country can secure illustrated atlases, pamphlets, etc., giving full and reliable data issued under Gov ernment authority, by applying to any of the authorized agents of the Canadian Government.

Catarrh of the pelvic organs produces such a variety of disagreeable and irri tating symptoms that many people— in fact, the majority of people —have no idea that they are caused by catarrh. If all the women who are suffering with any form of female weakness would write to Dr. llartman, Columbus, Ohio, and give him a complete descrip tion of their symptoms and the peculiar ties of their troubles, he will immedi ately reply with complete directions for ireatment, free of charge. Mrs. Eva Bartho, 133 East 12th street, N. Y. City, N. Y., writes: " I suffered for three years with teucorrhea and ulceration of the 'womb. The doctor advocated an operation which I dreaded very much, and strongly objected togo under it, Now I am a changed woman. Peruna cured me ;it took nine bottles, but I felt so much im proved I kept taking it, as I dreaded an operation so much. lam today in perfect health and have not felt so well for fifteen years."--Mrs. Eva Bartho. Miss Maud Steinbach, 1399 12th St., Milwaukee, Wis., writes: " Last winter I felt sick most of the time, was irregular and suffered from nervous exhaustion and severe bearing down pains. I had so frequently heard of Peruna and what wonderful curesit performed so I sent for a bottle and in four weeks my health and strength were entirely restored to me."—Miss Maud Steinbach.

Dr, llartman has probably cured more women of female ailments than any other livingphysician. He makes these cures simply by using and recommend ing Peruna.
