She PURITAN DAMES. 7f 1iar n rtmat l?irira our puritan fore. aS&9l'w, X fathers, but little vMfSA concerning the wives and moth i ers who lauded at 'Plymouth Rock and founded that colony which was uesuncu to piay such a large part in our history. In 1621 Hlder Cushman wrote from Plymouth that he 'would not advise any one to come here who were not con tent to spend their time, labors and endeavors for the benefit of those who shall come after, quitely con tenting them selves with such hardshlns and difficul ties as shall fall upon them." What self-renunciation and heroic purpose was this! They drowned witches to be sure, but that was no part of their puritanism. It is to the puritan women we owe so much for that spirit in our people which gives them the fortitude to endure hardship and stake life and, fortune for their convictions. The American women of to-day have the spirit of their puritan mothers, but their constitutions are not rugged or able to en dure half the hardships of these New Ung land ancestors. Very often they are tun. down with weaknesses and irregularities peculiar to their tcx,.and the constant drain upon tbelr vitality makes them chronic in. vallds. Many women hesitate to go to their family physician, because they dread the local examinations so generally insisted upon by practitioners. Such women should write Dr. R, V. Pierce, chief consulting physician of tlte Invalids! Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., giving a full description of their symptoms, history, etc., so that he can give them the best possible medical advice. If Dr, Pierce's Favorite Prescrip. tlou seems to suit the case the Doctor will say so. If not, then he will give medical advice which will put such women on the rapid road to recovery and health. j-3s& ijm Is with her daughter, Mrs, J. T. rot hick, on Salem avenue.

This Is a question that l.s often asked In medical circles. The answer Is this; During the hot weather the skin, through perspiration, lias thrown off from the body a gcat deal of excre tory matter. As cold weather come.s on the skin is less active because of little or no sweating, nnd the whole work of excreting this deleterious mat ter from, tho blood is thrown upon the kidneys. Often tho kidneys fail to bear this Increased strain; hence kid ney diseases. A little lnvlgoratlon at this critical period for the kidneys would save much sickness and many lives. Pe-ru-na exactly meets this re quirement. Taken at the beginning of the cold season It guards tho system against such accidents.

GARBAGE AS FUEL, Description of tho Process Employed in Sliorcditch, Englnnd. From Self-Cultuie. Sliorcditch, a suburb of London, has found n method of utilizing garbage for fuel In the production of electric ity. Between fifty and sixty tons of refuse are brought to the dust de structor dally and tipped from the carts into the lifts. These are moved by electricity up to the tipping plat form, run on rails, and emptied Into bins from which the furnaces are fed. Thero are twelve destructor cells, or furnaces, with the large heating area of twenty-five square feet each, and also six water-tube boilers at tho side, eacli with 1,300 square feet of heating surface. Now It Is evident that dust and refuse will not burn as coal burns. To coax It to burn, thero are motor- driven fans which cause a strong cur rent of air to circulate. Eacli fan makes from tOO to 700 revolutions a minute. The hot nil- is drawn by suc tion from the top of the engine house, forced into an air-duct by the fans, and goes underneath the cells and boil ers to compel the refuse to burn. The air supply Is carefully regulated by valves, so that In case of coal or other easily-burned fuel being used It can bo cut off. It was evident thai dust Is collected and preferably burned In the daytime, whereas night Is tho great time for using electricity. Dust destruction continues dny nnd night at Shoredltch, twelve men stoking In three shifts of eight hours each, four to a shift. The question wns, how to save up tho steam generated in the daytime for use at night. This has been achieved by the Drultt llnlpln thermal storage system, by which steam passes into a cylinder and Is mixed with a small quantity of cold water fioin the feed-pumps. Tills steam Is supplied to boilers In connection with the dyna mos, and by this arrangement tHo boil ers evaporate one-third' more steam than would be the case If they were; connected with the water mains. There remains to consider tho waste product of the refuse, which Is re duced to about 30 per cent, of Its orig inal bulk. At present It is given away; but there Is little doubt that u market will arise for It. It can be ground down to mako good sand for mortar of ex cellent quality for bricks, for artificial paving stone, concrete, and also for drainage und road-mnklng before ma cadam is laid down. The Sliorcditch vestry are at present considering the advisability of grinding the ash and using or selling It themselves as a sub sidiary Industry. There Is absolutely no coal used In the destructor cells nothing but refuse. The vestry clerk calculates that there will be un annual saving of $7,500. WII.I, THE CAT COME RACK. This Is a Disturbing Question Among tho Citizen oi Denver. From thg Denver News. Educated dogs, ponies?, elephants, rats and Innumerable other animals nro exceedingly common nowadays, but nn educated cat Is something out of the ordinary. As Is well known, the members of the feline species do not take kindly to performing tricks for thf. amusement of a gaping populace or oven for th?lr masters, preferring to pass their lives away In the pursuit of mice or In peaceful slumber. Mr. Lemuel Kingsbury, however, Is the possessor of such an animal, or, rather, was, for the paragon of feline intelli gence which he once owned has now disappeared and despair reigns at 2110 Sixteenth street. Mr. Kingsbury's cut was named "Rob Roy," but was gen erally saluted ns "Robbie," Ho was n magnificent torn cat, tipping the scales at 12'4 pounds, with a lino silky coat ot fur which made his proud owner think that ho was partly an Angora. Robbie had ht.s education begun when ho was In tho kitten stage, and as ho realized how superior ho was to all other cats his bosom was tilled with prido and ho learned new tricks dally. He could climb Into a chair and put his paws over his eyes nnd pray de voutly, und never movo until the last u 77 9$ ton GRIP A Chill, A Shiver, A Sneeze, the first Blgns of La Grrppe or n Cold, are checked at once if "77" Is taken early.

When his master would remark to tho wondering visitor that dead cats In reality never wagged their tails, Robbie's nppendngo would stiffen out nnd amid the applause of tho aud ience. Mr. Kingsbury would frequent ly tnko this wonderful creature out walking with him. and at such time the cat went In state In a grnpo bnskct, at one end of which was a hole through which Robbie could watch tho ap proach of any boy or dog and make preparations for their reception. It thero was nnythlng that Rob Roy's cultured palate craved It was pancakes, and he would signal his master for them nt nil hours of the day by pawing at a table cloth and yowling melodious ly. The crowning achievement, how ever, was when Robbie made his debut ns an actor In a play ut Elltch's last summer. Ho did not run off the stage In affright, but calmly lay In a basket purring contentedly. Mr. Kingsbury Is now scouring the city for his lost pet, whom ho considers nlmost human.
