Dream Made Plumber Rich.
Waltts, a plumber in Bristol, made
$60,000 through a dream. One night
he dreamed that while soldering up
some defect on the roof of a church
he let the ladle of molten metal slip
from his hand into the street below.
On hastening down. to recover the
utensil he found to his surprise that
the lead which it contained, instead of
lying in an intact mass, was scatter-
ed around in a myriad minute globu-
les. On awakening his curiosity
prompted him to repeat the experi-
ment, when to his surprise the falling
metal behaved as it had done in his
dream. This discovery, which he at
once adapted to the making of lead
shot, brought him in the above sub-
stantial fortune.

FOUR YEARS OF AGONY.
Whole Foot Nothing But Proud Fleshe
Had to Use Crutches — ‘““Cuticura
Remedies Best on Earth.”
“In the year 1895 the side of my right
foot was cut off from the little toe down
to the heel, and the physician who had
charge of me, 6 was trying to sew up the
side of my foot, but with no success. At
last my whole foot and way up above my
calf was nothing but proud flesh. I suf-
fered untold agonies for four years, and
tried different physicians and all kinds of
ointments. I could walk only with
crutches. In two weeks afterwards I saw
a change in my limb. . Then I began using
Cuticura Soap and Ointment often during
the day, and kept it up for seven months,
when my limb was healed up just the
same as if I never had trouble. It is
eight months now since I stopped using
Cuticura Remedies, the best on God's
earth. ‘I am working at the present day,
after five years of suffering. The cost of
Cuticura Ointment and Soap was only $6,
but the doctors’ bills were more like $600.

Doctrine of Hatred in War.
It is a fresh experience to take up
a book which preaches a doctrine of
hatred on the ground that a ‘living
personal hatred is a most valuable
fighting asset, and this is all that
can. be said in favor of these
“Hersies of Sea Power.”” Mr. Jane
quotes Nelson to support his curious
theory, and declares that a crude de-
sire to kill Russians contributed ma-
terially to the success of Japanese
arms ‘in the late war. It is unfortun-
ate for his argument that Nelson
should have been so consistently
chivalrous to opponents and that the
Japanese seem to have been anxious
to spare and save life whenever kill-
ing served no useful purpose. This
atemipt to connect blood lust with
victory shows how difficult it may be
for a civilian to understand the pe-
culiar sympathy which exists between
fighting men of different nations. “I
am going, I hope and trust to join
Nelson,” said Gravina on his death-
bed, and fiom what we know of Nel
son he was probably the first to
greet his cold enemy in the Halls of
Valhalla.—Saturday Review.
Analine Dyes Don’t Go.
Some time ago the Ameer of

dyes at the frontier, and at a certain
distance within the frontier to con-
fiscate and at once destroy them. By
this measure it is hoped the beauti-
ful arts for which the Vale of Kash-
mir is famous will be preserved from
deterioration. ‘
NO DAWDLING
A Man of 70 After Finding Coffee
Hurt Him, Stopped Short.
When a man has lived to be. 70
years old with a 40-year-old habit
grown to him like a knot on a tree,
chawi.ces are he’ll stick to the habit
till he dies.
But occasionally the spirit of youth
and determination remains in some
men to the last day of their lives.
When such men do find any habit of
life has been doing them harm, they
surprise the Oslerites by a degree of
will power that is supposed to belong
to men under 40, only.
“I had been a user of coffee until
three years ago—a period of 40 years
—and am now 70,” writes a N. Dak.
man. ‘‘I was extremely nervous and
debilitated, and saw plainly that I
must make a change.
“I am thankful to say I_had the
nerve to quit coffee at once and take
on Postum without any dawdling,
ind experienced no ill effects. On the
contrary, I commenced to gain, losing
my nervousness within two months,
plso gaining strength and health
otherwise.
“For a man of my age, I am very
well and hearty. I sometimes meet
persons who have not made their
Postum right and don’t like it. But
[ tell them to boil it long enough,
and call their attention to my looks
now, and before I used it, that seems
tonvincing.
‘““Now, when I have writing to do,
or long columns of figures to cast up,
[ feel equal to it and can get through
my work without the fagged out feel-
Ing of old.” Name given by the Pos-
tum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read

The range of years over which can-

Instead of the long celluloid film, a
London photographer uses circular
glass plates for the cinematograph.
The pictures are taken in a spiral,
and a plate fifteen inches in diameter
holds several hundred, recording a
story lasting about four minutes.
Aluminum, cadmium, zine, mag-
nesium, ete., affect the photographie
plate, though not classed as radio-
active. A late remarkable observa-
tion is that the electric spark some-
times increases the effect, sometimes
lessens it, while this influence—
though so superficial that slight sand-
papering removes it—persists for
months.
In the latest fight against the rab-
bit pest in Australia, the attempt is
made to destroy the animals in their
burrows. A specially constructed
boiler is used with a length of flex-
ible metallic hose, and steam at high
pressure is forced into the burrow,
after first closing all openings except
that for the hose. The early results
have been very encouraging.
Ordinary clothing, it is pointed
out, keeps the skin of man in almost
complete darkness. A London physi-
cian advises that consumptives wear
white clothing and that it be of linen
or cotton, never of silk. Blue and
violet pass the higher rays fairly well,
and might be worn, but red, black,
yellow and green transmit little but
heat rays, and should be avoided.
Two languages have died out in
modern Europe, according, to Rev.
W. S. Lach-Szyrna. In a recent pa-
per to British archaeologists, he
doubted whether anybody could fix
the time or place when Prussian dis-
appeared, for the death of a language
may be a lingering and obscure one,
but Cornish seems to have passed
away in its English home in quite
recent times. The last Cornish drama
bears date of 1611. A considerable
Cornish literature is preserved in
manuscript and printed works, and
the language has left its impression
in the names of places and families.
A few words, including the numerals,
are still used by the miners.
According to a description of his
experiments given by Mr. Marconi,
the confining of the electric waves
used in wireless telegraphy to certain
predetermined directions is a prob-
lem admitting of an easy, if not a
complete, solution. A simple method
is to substitute for the usual vertical
antenna employed as radiator or ab-
_sorber of the waves, a straight hori-
zontal conductor, placed at a com-
paratively small elevation above the
surface of the ground or water. Ex-
perience shows that the radiation
reaches a maximum in the vertical
plane of this horizontal wire, and
gradually dies out on each side of it.
Similarly at the receiving-station the
maximum effect of the waves is felt
in the vertical plane of the horizontal
absorbing conductor. To attune the
transmitting and receiving apparatus,
their conductors are pointed in the
same direction.
. THE BRIDE'S FIRST KISS.
“Best Man's’ Protest Against Plea
For its Abolition.
The Vicar of Tintwistle, England,
having declared that the ‘foolish and
irreverent’’ custom of kissing the
bride after a wedding ceremony
should be stopped, he is thus an-
swered by one signing himself “Six
Times a Best Man” in the London
Mail:
‘““As I have on six occasions filled
the invidious position of best man,
I trust you will grant me space to
deliver an emphatic protest against
the abolition of this good old Eng-
lish custom, which is, apparently,
wished by some clergymen and many
curates. .
“Is there to be no reward for the
unfortunate ‘best man,” who has
borne for hours on his shoulders all
the worries and responsibilities of
the important ceremony; the rally-
ing of the trembling bridegroom, the
supervision of all the social arrange-
ments, and the departure of the
happy pair from the church, to say
nothing of the lavish scattering of
largesse to every hanger-on within
and without, for which, by the way,
he is very seldom reimbursed? 1 re-
peat, is there no reward for all these
manifold difficulties .successfully ac-
complished ?
‘““To the bride and bridegroom it is
the solemnly joyous moment of their
lives. All the playfulness of eager
friends and even the ecclesiastical
chivalry of the minister should not
be allowed to rob the parties of a
kigs, the remembrance of which will
remain with the happy pair all their
lives.”

In many ways baseball is a game
particularly suitable for the youth of

FINANCE AND TRADE REVIEW
WEATHER AFFECTS BUSINESS
Stimulates Sale of Heavy Weight
Wearing Apparel—Crop Reports
Say Cotton is Short.
Lower temperature brought out
much business in seasonable lines of
wearing apparel and most reports
from wholesalers tell of the largest
volume of trade ever transacted.
Shipping departments are limited in
activity by inadequate railway facili-
ties, and” this difficulty is becoming
aggravated by the free movement of
grain and coal as the season ad-
vances. Crop reports covering con-
ditions cn October 1 is in most cases
satisfactory in grain, But damage
has reduced the yield of cotton and
caused a violent rise in prices. To
this fact is due some irregularity in
trade and collections at a few South-
ern cities, but most centers report
expanding business and confidence re-
garding the future. In the leading
industries it is impossible to secure
prompt deliveries, even contracts for
shipment during the first quarter of
1907 being difficult to place with the
steel mills and the long-continued
lassitucde in primary markets for cot-
ton goods has been suceeded by an
eagerness to purchase that is ad-
vancing quotations.
Conditions im the primary markets
for cotton goods show a radical
change from the recent indifferent
demand and endeavor to obtain con-
cessions in prices. Now that the raw
material has advanced beyond general
expectations ‘and there is prospect of
higher prices there is a sudden rush
to provide for future needs, but the
producers exhibit as much indiffer-
ence as was formerly shown by pur-
chasers. Conditions in the woolen
industry do not show a similar
broadening of interest, few duplicate
orders having been placed, and the
market still waits for some definite
attitude by clothing manufacturers.
New England footwear manufactur-
ers reserve the usual spring orders
from jobbers in all sections of the
country with the best demand for
heavy stock such as grain and split
goods. Producers have large con-
tracts on hand for winter amd spring
lines in addition to supplementary
orders for late fall delivery.
That the early advent of snow and
frost has done some damage is evi-
dent in reports of injury to fruit or-
chards, vines and tobaco plants at
the West and rumors of frost damage
to colton at the South.
The railways seem to be finding
increased difficulty in handling the
traffic offering, and fears of future
great congestion are expressed.

And a True Story of How
This remarkable woman, whose
maiden name was Estes, was born in
Lynn, Mass., February 9th, 1819, com-
ing from a good old Quaker family.
For some years she taught school, and
became known as a woman of an alert

band investigating mind, an earnest
seeker after knowledge, and above
all, possessed of a wonderfully sympa-
thetic nature.
In 1843 she married Isaac Pinkham,
a builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children, three sons and a
daughter.
In those good old fashioned days it
was common for mothers to make
their own home medicines from roots
and herbs, nature's own remedies—
calling in a physician only in specially
urgent cases. By tradition and ex-
perience many of them gained a won-
derful knowledge of the curative prop-
erties of the various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinkham took a great interest
in the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power over disease.
She maintained that just as nature so
bountifully provides in the harvest-
fields and orchards vegetable foods of
all kinds; so, if we but take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
of the field there are remedies ex-
ressly designed to cure the various
1s and weaknesses of the body, and
it was her pleasure to search these out,
and prepare simple and effective medi-
cines for her own family and friends.
Chief of these was a rare combina-
tion of the choicest medicinal roots
and herbs found best adapted for the
cure of the ills and weaknesses pecu-
liar to the female sex, and Lydia E. Pink-
ham’s friends and neighbors learned
that her compound relieved and cured
and it became quite popular among
them.
All this so far was done freely, with-
out money and without price, as a
labor of love.
But in 1873 the financial crisis struck
Lynn. Itslengthand severity were too
much for the large real estate interests
of the Pinkham family, as this class
of business suffered most from
fearful depression, so when the Centen-
nial year dawned it found their prop-
erty swept away. Some other souree
of income had to be found.
Vegetable Compound was made known
to the world.
The three sons and the daughter,
with their mother, combined forces to

restore the family fortune. They
argued that the medicine which was
go good for their woman friends and
neighbors was equally good for the
women of the whole world.
The Pinkhams had no money, and
little credit. Their first laboratory
was the kitchen, where roots and
herbs were steeped on the stove,
gradually filling a gross of bottles.
Then came the question of selling
it, for always before they had given
it away freely. They hired a job
printer to run off some pamphlets
setting forth the merits of the medi-
cine, now called Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound, and these were
| distributed by the Pinkham sons in
Boston, New York, and Brooklyn.
The wonderful curative properties of
the medicine were, to a great extent,
self-advertising, for whoever used it
recommended it to others, and the de-
mand gradually increased.
In 1877, by combined efforts the fam-
ily had saved enough money to com-
mence newspaper advertising and from
that time the growth and success of
the enterprise were assured, until to-
day Lydia E. Pinkham and her Vege-
table Compound have become house-
hold words everywhere, and many
tons of roots and herbs are used annu-
ally in its manufacture.
Lydia E. Pinkham herself did not
live to see the great success of this
work. She passed to her reward years
ago, but not till she had provided
means for continuing her work as
effectively as she could have done it
herself.
During her long and eventful expe.
rience she was ever methodical in her
work and she was always careful to pre-
serve arecord of every case that came to
her attention. The case of every sick
woman who applied to her for advice—
and there were thousands—received
careful study, and the details, includ-
ing symptoms, treatment and results
were recorded for future reference, and
to-day these records, together with
hundreds of thousands made since, are
available to sick women the world
over, and represent a vast collabora-
tion of information regarding the
treatment of woman's ills, which for
authenticity and accuracy can hardly
be equaled in any library in the
world.
With Lydia E. Pinkham worked her
daughter - in-law, the present Mrs.
Pinkham. She was carefullyinstructed
in all her hard-won knowledge, and
for years she assisted her in her vast
correspondence.
To her hands raturally fell the
direction of the work when its origina-
tor passed away. For nearly twenty-
five years she has continued it, and
nothing in the work shows when the
first Lydia E. Pinkham dropped her
pen, and the present Mrs. Pinkham,
now the mother of a large family, took
it up. With woman assistants, some as
capable as herself, the present Mrs.
Pinkham continues this great work,and
probably from the office of no other
person have so many women been ad-
vised how to regain health. Sick wo-
men, this advice is ‘‘Yours for Health”
freely given if you only write to ask
for it.
Such is the history of Lydia E. Pink-
am’s Vegetable Compound; made
from simple roots and herbs; the one
great medicine for women’s -ailments,
and the fitting monumdnt to the noble
woman whose name it bears.
