In order to do this, she must be healthy and strong in a womanly way. Both the intel lectual and physical future of her children depend largely upon the mother. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the best of all medicines for maids, wives and moth ers. It is intended to do but one thing and does that one thing thoroughly. It acts directly on the delicate and important or gans concerned in wifehood and mother hood and makes them strong, healthy, virile, vigorous and elastic. Taken dur ing the time of preparation, it banishes the trial.- and dangers of maternity. It injures the well being of the mother and the robust health of the child. It is the greatest of nerve tonics and nerve builders. Thou sands of women have told the storv °f 'V marvelous accomplishment?. Good rrredi cine dealers sell it and will not advise a substitute in place of it. In a letter to Dr. Pierce, Mr. C. A. McDonald, of No. '23 N'. Chestnut Street, Los Angeles.

In the f.-.:.: tof ore; ance for fight ing tin is a one-half model of a 13-inch gun, 40 feet long. A view of this monster and a consideration of the fact thai battleships carry four of tbt .11.. each weighing 88 tons and hurling projectiles weighing MM pounds each, gives one some idea of the mni .w strength of a first-class war vessel. The breech and breech mechanism of this gun are the most wonderful parts of it. Although the breech p'ug i.s subjected to a pressure of 15 tons to the square inch when the gun is fired, it is loosened and opened by a single motion of the crank, which visitors are free to operate. There is also one of those wicked rapid-fire guns which drove the Spanish from their gnad ami swept their ships to destruction at Manila asd Santiago. On this in ai\ shown the telescopic sight aud rar.e finder, as well as the point ii n. ■ :n. by which 35 aimed shots per minute may be made. This, however, eeeuis slow when com part d with the automatic rapid-fire gun. v. aieh throws 2ja oce-pound shells per minute —the terror of torpedo boats. Projectiles of all sizes for the various guns are exhibited, fcnm the Dior.strr 1,1-Incli shell to the sanall but terribly j letraticg bullet fired from the riile uied by the marines when ever they are called upon to make a landing and do military duty. Some very convincing evidences of the penetrali power of tirese bullets are shown. Th' re is a full-sized Whitehead tor pedo, with its "war-head" and ready for business, which cost the govern ment about $3,000 to produce. Al-. | though torpedoes were not much used in the late war. owing to the watch fulness of the lookouts and the power of the searchlight, they are still much to be dreaded for the work they can do under certain circumstances. Resting near the big 13-ineh gui. ar.d forming a fitting companion for it is a model of a 14,000-pound anchor. Its simplicity does not prevent it from attracting lnuch attention. Near bj- is a complete diver's outfit, including ac air pump and a telephone. At tirst glance it seems a little strange that n man needs heavily-iveigiited shoes and a heavy belt of lead to en able him to sink in the water, but they are very necessary parts of a diver's outfit. A striking' example of the com; nct ness of a naval vessel k> shown in a completely furnished stateroom, as ac cupied by a commissioned officer on one of the lartrer vessels. While it is only a feu' feet each way, if eon tains everything necessary, from a tub to a fair-sized writing desk, and there is room to spare. . • The binnacle compass seems a Chi nese puzzle to the uninitiated, but when explained by one of the attend ant?. it apyars very simple indeed and is most interesting. Samnlea of the signal code flags hang from the ceiling, and visitors al- j ways v.-o:i<:- r at ihc simple but perfect means by which ships communicate' and orders are given at sea. There is also shown the distinctive flag of the president of the United States— interesting 1 because so rarely seen. It is cari'! ! on al! ships, but is hoisted only when the president is on boar-1. The uniforms worn by the "-lack ies" attract much attention as per taining exclusivelj- to the men who have done such valiant service during the past few months. Besides these more notable exhibits there countless smaller but no less inter oVeets which are worthy of can inspection. Hj:&in*s Exiled Qneen. Queen Isabella of Spain, the little king's grandmother, has never visited England, although many members oi the nrit.' h colony are made welcome In her beautiful house, %vhich was built by herself some 20 years ago, in Paris. ■Although Isabella is an exile, she is royallv lodged; even the stables are among the finest in I'aris. and a special corner i ; a. idc for the muies, which have the honor of being driven only by the quet 11 herself. The queen, who will be ■ ■ on> October 10 next, was only three year., oh! when she was proclaimed queen, so she can never remember a time wh; > was not styled "Youi i majesty." T.:e members of her mod eat little court are devoted to her, and yet their emoluments arc small, for when Isabella abdicated in favor of her son she gave up her immense estates tc the nation, and not very long after her retirement to Paris he found it nee sary to rend what -he then described as a whole roomful of jewels to th« TTofe!

Photography is cheaper than clerk aire. At least one of the big insur ance companies has found it so, and that is the reason the policy applies. aticn> mac!e to the company are now copied, for filing and reference, by the aid of a dry plate and a quick lens instead of being turned over to a corps, of copyists. By so doing the salaries sf IS clerks are saved to the company and there is no possible chance for Inaccuracies occurring. The head of the photographic de-' partment of the big insurance com pany is the authority for the state nent that the two operators turn out daily r.*o copies of policy applica.tiQns, a task formerly requiring 20 clerks. Fhe innovation meets with approval snd the results have been more satis factory than was expected when the charge was made. In the old days each application, to gether with the numerous documents accompanying it. bad to be copied In long-hn: ' ar.d then compared and veri fied \ll of which required time. And even with the utmost precaution dis crepancies were found to occur. A slip of a letter or sometimes of a punctuation mark might cost thecom pany hundreds of dollars If a legal action should arise over the policy. But the use of photography had not then entered the heads of the officials. One day a bright man had a bright idea. Photography was expensive, but clerk hire was more so. A little fig uring and it was apparent that ma terials for the photographic depart ment would not cost near what the salaries of the copyists amounted to. The plan met with approval. Experi ments were made that increased the respect of the officers of the company for the man who suggested the scheme. Then two rooms were fitted up in the building and the photographic depart ment became an ins-titution. Since then the work has been grad ually extended' until now there is hard ly any document that cannot be cop ied by the camera. One beauty of the innovation is that it takes but a com parative minute. In actual computa tion it may be more, but when com pared with the time it would take a clerk to make a copy by the old method it doesn't seem the smallest part of a minute. The camera doesn't slip. It copie* wba* ia before it with a fidelity tre eqnaled. and sbotild It be that there are erasures or substitutions so ef fectively used as to deceive the eye, tbe catnera tells of It, for the lena ofthnes sees farther than the human optic and tells secrets that otherwise tvould not be discovered. The files of the insurance companies since photographic copies have been used are considered absolutely accu rate. The photograph is as good'if not better evidence in a court of law than. handwriting. Th refore, taking into consideration all the reasons for its approval, the officers pat the bright man with the bright idea on the back and tell him that he is a good fellow. Possibly he got his salary raised.— Milwaukee Sentinel. HE GAINED THE CUSTOMER. The \\ lly anil Wlde-Awarke Grocer Proved Thnt Ills Prohibition Principle* Were Deep. A well-dressed woman entered an Oak Park grocery store and asked to see the proprietor, who, seeing that she was a stranger, at once prepared to welcome her as a new suburban ite and prospective customer. He took off his apron, smoothed his tumbled hair, and, seizing a pencil and order pad, approached her with a grand busi ness flourish. "Anything we cau do for you to day, madam? We have a fine supply of fresh fruit and vegetables. Any thing in canned goods?" "Xo-o," said the woman, whose eye* were taking in every detail of the store and its contents. "I only want ed to know if you sold sweet cider?" "I'm very sorry," said the grocer, "we always have it in its season, but at present it is out of season. It might be possible to find some. I will take your order and try." "Young man," said the woman, in sepulchral tones, "you will never take an order for sweet cider from me, nor for anything else. lam a stranger here, and am looking for a place to buy my groceries where they don't sell sweet cider. If I wanted to point out a path to destruction I would put up a sign 'Sweet Cider Sold Here.' " Then walked out, while the grocer gnawed his mustache and looked at the blank pad with savage intensity, when a happy thought oc curred to him. He ran after the woman. "I merely wished to say, madam, that you are right. I gave up selling eorn and rye for similar reasons—but perhaps you can guess?" "Because you don't keep a feed store?" suggested the woman, a note of suspicion in her voice. "No, madam, from higher motives. Whisky is made from corn and rye." "Humph! I don't mind if you take my order for a barrel of flour and two bushels of potatoes. You seem open to conviction, and I guess I've struck the right place." As she sailed away the grocer winked his left eye and said to his clerk: "It's a poor rule that won't work both ways. .limmy."~Chicago Times- Tlcrald. The Reason.
