To a, modest, sensitive, high strung young woman, especially an unmarried woman, thcro is no more trying pr painful ordeal than tho "examinations," which aro now so common in hospitals and private practice. An examination by speculum, or necessity in certain stages of 1$ many diseases peculiar to women, so at least it is declared by tho pro fession. This would not bo tho case if patients heeded their symptoms in time. If a young girl's blood is watery, her skin palo and waxy looking, her lips colorless, bowels torpid, digestion poor, her ears and temples throb and she is subject to headache, begin at once to build up her By stem with Lydla K. rinkham's Vegetable Compound. Do not allow her to undergo a physical examination. Hero is a letter from a joung lady who request?) that her name should not be Ubed, but gives her initials and street number so that any inquiry nddre&bcd to her will be received. She says: " Dear Mrs. Plnkham: It affords me great pleasuro to be able to say a few words in regard to the merits of your Vegetable Compound. I was tempted to try it after seeing the effects of it upon my mother, and now I feel like a new person. I am a stenographer and was troubled with falling of the womb and female weakness in general. I continued to work until I was so weak I could no longer walk, and the last day I was forced to stop and rest. " I was then so ill that I was compelled to &tay in bed and so nervous that I could not hold anything in my hands. The least noise or surpriso would cause my heart to beat so loudly, and I would become so weak that I could hardly btand. I suffered for almost a year. It is different now. I can go about my work with pleasure, while before, work was a drudge.

La Manana, a dally paper published in Coruna, Spain, i elates a peculiar occurrence, which Is vouched for by tho local authorities of the village of Bens, not far from there. Some time ago. the German steamer Sailer, from Bremen, foundered off that coast, and from time to time hodles of some of the victims of the disaster were washed ashore An inhabitant of the village recently saw a body brought In by the tide, and hy means of a hook drew the body up on dry land, The first thing he did after landing the body was to seek in the pockets of the drowned sailor for the valuables he thought he might find The right arm of the corpse was then stretched out stiffly, and as the villager searched the vest pockets of the deceased he must have exerted some pressure upon the muscles of the breast, for as he did so the arm of the dead man suddenly swung back and hit him squarely In the face The fellow Jumped up, scared to death, and ran home as fast as his legs could carry him. He went to bed In the greatest excitement, and, after confessing to a priest, who was quickly called, that he had attempted to rob a corpse and had been struck a blow by the same, he died the same day. This story Is given by the Spanish paper as absolutely true, excepting only the natural explanation of how the arm of tne corpse could have swung around when the breast was compressed. It API!)

VEGETABLE FIBRE IS NO GOOD Tho Proper Kind of Clothing Is Made of Aui nml rihrc, or in Other Words, Is Voolcn--i;en the Bedclothes Should He of Wool-.Kciisons Why. Writing In the New Review L R S. Tomalln savs The question whether animal or vegetable fibre Is more suit able for covering the body can only bo answered by considering the physiolo gical effect of such fibres upon the body and its functions. One of the most Important of thee functions Is that performed by the skin In perspir ing or throwing off from the body, through its pores, by the medium of a watery vapor, refune matters, which, 11 retained in the body, would be high ly injurious This function is as vital ly lmpoitant. and its proper perfoim nnce at all times Is ns conducive to H tilth as the noimal discharge by the 1 klneys and other excretory organs of their functions Now, If the skin re ceives a chill its functional activity Is greatly Interfered with or altogether the surfire blood vessels to the Internal m scans, where congestion and Inflam mation may bo set up. In short, a chilled skin cannot sweat, cannot even exhale or only to a. quite Inadequate decree and the injurious refuse mat tf r vv-hlch should have been thrown off Is retained In the body. Now we see the Importance of cover ing the skin not with vegetable fibre, which will rapidly conduct the heat from It, but with nnlmal fibre, which on the human body is a slow heat con ductor. The former covering involves the risk of cooling too quickly, of los ing not only the superfluous heat (due to violent exercise or other cause), but also the degree of heat which Is neces sary to enable the skin to perform its exhaling function properly. Again, one of the things not generally considered Is that evil odors have an Injurious effect upon the skin's action, tending to drive away the blood from the surface vessels. An impure atmosphere Is not only unwholesome when Inhaled by the lungs, but also when the body Is sur rounded by its own emanations. Dead vegetable fibre (such as linen and cot toa) is koprophagous 1. e , It greedily takes up the malodorous emanations of the body, although It cannot, as the living plant would do, assimilate them. This tho merest tyro in experiment can test by noting the odor of cotton waist coat linings and trouser pockets after a few weeks' (or a few days') wear, and comparing with the odor of woolen materials under similar conditions. An other sense that of touch will show the superiority of animal fibre as cloth ing material. Put the hand on wool and you will feel attracted; put it on linen or cotton and you feel repelled. The hygroscoplcal difference between wool and linen or cotton Is Important. Vegetable fibre reallv takes up mois ture like sponge, while the horny na ture of wool offers much greater re sistance to satutatlon with wet. It we remember that all these advantageous ntttibutes of animal fibre slow heat conductivity, non-absorption of evil odors, non-saturation with wet) were necessary to the survival of the ani mal on which the wool or hair grew, while the conditions of plant life differ so widely from those of nnlmal life, we shall recognize how much moro suit able must be animal than vegetable fibre as clothing mateilal for tho hu man animal. The Instinct which leads cricketers nnd other athletes to dress In woolens, for the purpose of vlolep exercise, Is stiong evidence of the g- cral tecognltlon that such coverlni. is suitable for a persplilng skin and for tho development of utmost energy and vigor. Tho secret of healthy clothing la porous wool thioughout. All wool, porous wool, and as few laveis of It as practicable, to allow the freest vent to the skin's exhaled vapor that Is the safe system, and It Is no fad, Init sim ple, plain common sense. Befote quit ting the subject of health In connec tion with tho body's covering, tho nlghtwcar and bedclothlng should be mentioned The Important exhaling function of the skin of course, con tinues uninterruptedly through, tho hours of rest, w hen tho brain no longer acts as the body's sentinel, and the tleeper U peculiarly exposed to un wholesome Influences, if such there be. Cotton and llnBn are ut least ns objec tionable nt night as during the day, and the oullnary bedding even of well-to-do people-- Is a, storehouse of tho body's emanations. Tho comfort and the Invlgoiatlng sleep 'to be gained by sleeping with an open window, In woolen nlght-clothlng and between woolen coverings, with no cotton coun teipnno or quilt, are unimnglned by those who 1 avo not tiled It.
