FOR NERVOUS PEOPLE
A Michigan Mother Preserved to Hei
Family by Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills.
Wlion tlio blood is impoverished the
nerves starve dud neuralgia or something
more serious swiftly follows. Ki-rvoua
people are generally p;ile people. By
supplying through the blood those vital
elements that the nerves iiced, Dr. Wi
lliams' Pink Pills for Palo Peoplo have
performed tliose remarkable cures that
make it impossible for any nervous suf
ferer to neglect them.
A recent case is that of Mrs. Peter
M'irrissette, of No. 815 Eleventh street,
Alpena, Mich., who writes as follows:
" My trouble started with childbirth.
After one of my children was born I had
a kind of paralysis. I was very weak
and my mouth was a little crooked. I
was always tired and was so nervous
that I could not bear to hear a dog bark
or a bell ring—even the little bird in its
cage would annoy me. My heart flut
tered a great deal and I had dizzy spells.
I was not able to be left alone.
"My doctor gave me different kinds of
medicine, changing it several times.
When it was evident that he could not
help me he said he did not understand
my case. This was three years ago and
I was very much discouraged, wl'ien my
brother, who had taken Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills, recommended them to me. I
tried them and oticed a change for the
better when I was taking the second box.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cured me and I
have been well ever since. I now do all
my own housework, sewing and wash
ing for seven of us."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have also
cured diseases caused by impure or im
poverished blood such as rheumatism,
anaemia and after-effects of the grip.
All druggists sell Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills or the remedy will be mailed, post
paid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per
box, six boxes for $2.50, bv the Dr. Wil

YARNLETS RAKE.
rt. writer tells this story of old-time
Itdianapolis: "The people living near
a veteran pork packer's establishment
stood the smells a long time, but at
•U t entered a complaint. Tho case
was brought up In a squire's court,
and the defendant, after listening to
the charges attentively, remarked in
an injured tone: "Well, it seems to
me that any man who doesn't like the
amcll of a hog is just a leetle too good
•for Indianapolis.
Ho went into a drug store and
'bought a bottle of some patent stuff,
wii.ch was advertised thus: "No More
Coughs. No More Colds. 25 Cents a
Bottle." Three days later he went to
the druggist complaining that his
throat was stopped up, and that he
coi:!d scarcely breathe. "I've drunk
all that patent cough mixture," he
said. "Drunk it! ' yelled the man;
why, that's an India rubber solution
to put on the sole 3 of your boots!"
"Who ever saw a perfect man?"
the revivalist. "There is no
such tiling. Every man has his faults,
plenty of them." Tho revivalist con
tinued: "Who ever saw a perfect
woman?" At this juncture a tall, thin
woman arose. "Do you mean to say,
madam," the evangelist asked, "that
you have seen a perfect woman?"
"Well, I can't just say that I have seen
her," the woman replied, "but I have
heard a powerful lot about her; she
W£u my husband's first wife."
Her stock of German was scanty.
Vne day after her arrival in Berlin
3iio went to make a purchase. After
so had made known her wishes in
halting German the old woman who
waited upon her exclaimed: "13 the
frc :ulein an American?" The fraeu
-lein was."And do they all speak like
you?" continued the old German. On
reviving an affirmative answer she
li-'l-d her hands to heaven with the
\ crds: "Thank God! My boy went
to America to escape the conscription.
He does not speak a word of English,
but if they all speak like you my poor
.Ley will understand every word."

STUDYING WATER POWER.
The French Government Is Anxioua
to Assist Industrial De
velopment.
The French government is pursuing
a course which promises to result iu
great benefit to the manufacturers of
that, nation, by surveying the rivers
and streams of the country in order
to determine their capacity for gen
erating power for the service of fac
tories, reports the New York Tribune.
Industrial men in the United States
have made many serious mistakes in
the past by developing water power
for factories, only to find that lack of
water at certain periods of the year
compelled discouraging and costly
shutdowns or the installation of re
serve steam power plants. France
does not purpose to have her manu
facturers make such mistakes as these
In the future, and has begun the work
of classifying and controlling her
streams. In the United States hydraul
ic enterprises have been limited to
great streams and executed mainly by
private enterprise. The United States
has never attempted a scientific exam
ination of its resources with a view to
enabling towns and villages on streams
of minor consequence to put to profit
the power now lost. This is what
France now proposes to do.
In France the rivers susceptible of
being controlled with a view to in
dustrial utilization are numerous.
But before erecting hydro-electrical
works of importance, it is very impor
tant to know the variations in the vol
ume of the stream to be utilized at
various seasons of the year. The fac
tors to be investigated are the surface

and the direction of the watershed, the
mode of culture, the extent of the for
ests, the geological nature of the soil
and subsoil, the Intensity and the di
vision of the rains or snows received
by the watershed and, in mountainous
sections, the surface of glaciers which
sustain the lummer discharge. A great
number of useful facts have already
been gathered by the department of
agriculture, but it Is of the highest In
terest, in order that they may be prop
erly utilized, to determine the best
methods of seeking the elements and
to co-ordinate the results obtained.
This is a new and important task,
which has been confided to a commit
tee for scientific studies.

COMPASS OF LITTLE USE.
The Instrument on Submarine Boat
Ceases to Point North
Under Water.
Talking with a young naval officer, I
learned something about submarins
boats that astonished me, says a Brook
lyn Eagle writer. He had been down in
one of the Holland craft several timet
and made light of the dangers, but ho '
ridiculed the value of such vessels for j
warfare. Then he told me the strange, !
inexplicable fact that after the boa r .:
is entirely submerged the compass |
ceases "to point to the north. It flies
around any old way and cannot be re- j
lied upon for steering. Even when tha |
water is clear and still the man at the ;
lookout cannot see more than 20 feet
in front of the bow.
Rough water on the surface has the j
effect of giving an opaqueness to tho
sea underneath—the opposite of the
ory. The approach of a submarine can j
be detected by the masthead that stands
out of the water. The vessel rarely de
scends more than ten or twelve feet
below the surface. The general suppo- |
sltion that the boat flounders about in j
the mud is erroneous.
But the impossibility of steering by !
compass destroys the practicability of
this weapon for actual warfare. In an \
engagement the submarine would be as
likely to torpedo friend as enemy. All
manner of strange currents exist under \
the surface of the sea, and as they have [
the boat wholly in their grasp she !
might be turned entirely around in a j
quarter mile's run. Many of the most j
expert men in the navy are frying to 1
divlse means to overcome the effect of
submersion upon the compass.
Novel Arctic Station.
Arctic science should be greatly ad
vanced by the permanent station for
its study to be established this year
on the south coast of Disco island.
This novel station, to be established by
a gift from Mr. A. Hoick, of Copen
hagen, and to be aided by an annual
grant of $3,000 from the Danish gov
ernment, will have a well-equipped
biological laboratory, with working
places for visitors, and will provide a
library of arctic literature. The only
charge to visiting naturalists will be
a small fee for board.
"Dew Ponds."
The "dew pond" is a curious Stone
age relic yet to be traced in Great
Britain. In the absence of springs,
broad hollows were scooped out, and
these were covered with straw or other
non-conducting material, with a thick
layer of clay and stones on top. At
night the cold surface of the clay con
densed an abundance of water for the
cattle to drink.
Safe Assertion.
The Englishman who says that he
can measure the one-seveuty-millionth
part of an inch can safely defy doub f
ors to prov* that he is only boasting.

THREE FACTS
For Sick Women
To Consider
| _ FIRST.— That almost every operation
in our hospitals performed upon women
; becomes necessary through neglect of
i such symptoms as backache, irregular
j and painful periods, displacements
j of the female organs, pain in the side,
j burning sensation in the stomach,
bearing-down pains, nervousness, diz
ziness and sleeplessness.
SECOND. —The medicine that holds
i the record for the largest number of
absolute cures of female ills is Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
It regulates, strengthens and cures
diseases of the female organism as
nothing else can.
For thirty years it has been helping
women to be strong, curing backache,
nervousness, kidney troubles, inflam
mation of the female organs, weak
ness and displacements, regulating
the periods perfectly and overcoming
their pains. It has also proved itself
1 invaluable in preparing women for
, childbirth and the change of life. N
_ TIITBD. —The great volume of unso
licited and grateful testimonials on file
at the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass., many of which are from time to
time published by permission, give ab
solute evidence of the value of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
Mrs. Pinkham's advice.
Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation
to Women.-Women suffering from any
| form of female weakness are invited to
promptly communicate with Mrs. Pink
ham, at Lynn, Mass. All letters are
| received, opened, read and answered
' by women only. From symptoms given,
your trouble may be located and the
quickest and surest way of recovery
j advised. Mrs. Pinkham is daughter
; in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham and for
twenty-five years under her direction
and since her decease she has been ad
visingsick women free of charge. Outof
the vast Volume of experience in treat
ing female ills Mrs. Pinkham probably
has the very knowledge that will help
your case. Surely, any woman, rich or
poor, is very foolish if she doesnottake
; advantago of this generous offer of
j assistance.
