My monthly pe riods had ceased and I suffered much pain, with fainting; spells, headache, backache nnd t bearinz-down pains, and I was so weak I could hardly keep around. As a last resort I decided to write yon and try Lydia E.

They are always investigating, in quiring and wanting to know, says the London Post, of American Con Buls. They are not content merely to eend the department perfunctory re ports of official returns of imports and exports or mere tables of figures (although these as matters of rou tine are not ignored), but they delve Into obscure places, they compare and contrast, they offer their advice and suggestions freely and the de partment allows them full scope. How much the Consul's report is "edited" before it is made public, or how of ten it never is given publicity, no one, of course, outside the department has any means of knowing, but the daily bulletin Issued containing these re ports, which is given wide and gratuitous distribution, showB that the American Consular corps is Indus trious and intelligent. Panama Hats. Panama, hats are in as good' form as ever for the country, and the fact that they have been dropped hy "the great untubbed" has merely served to give them an added fillip toward ex clusiveness. Of course, no man in his senses would wear a Panama in town. Next to the Panama for the country comes the rough straw sailor hat for the city. Haberdasher. Ostrich Lays Few Eggs.

A great many people go on suffering from annoying ailments for a long time before they can got their own commit to give up the indulgence from which their trouble arises. A gentleman In Brooklyn describes his experience, as follows: "I became satisfied some months neo that I owed the pnlpltation of the heart, from which I suffered almost dally, to the use of coffee (I had been a coffee drinker for 30 years), but I found It very bnrd to give up the beverage. "I realized that I must give up the harmful indulgence In coffee, but Ifelt the necessity for a hot table drink, and as tea is not to my liking, I was at a loss for awhile, what to do. "One day I ran across a verv sensible and straightforward presentation of the claims of Postum Food Coffee, and was so Impressed thereby that I con cluded to give it a trial. My experience with It was unsatisfactory till I learned how It ought to bcirepared by thor ough boiling for not less than 15 or 20 minutes. After I learned that lesson there was no trouble. Postum Food Coffee proved to be a most palatable and satisfactory hot beverage, and I have used it ever since. "The effect on my health has been most salutary. It has completely cured the heart palpitation from which I used to suffer so much,' particularly after breakfast, and I never have a return of It except when I dine or lunch awny from home and am compelled to drink the old kind of coffee because Postum is not served. I find that Postum Food Coffee cheers and invigorates while it produces no harmful otlmulatlon." Name given by Tostum Co., But"" Creek, Mich. i , There's a reason.

When the panic or 1837 swept ovei the country the National road was barely half way through Illinois. No work was done on it after 1841. Two years before, however, a line of stages and post routes had been started from Cumberland In Maryland to Tcrre Haute in Indiana, from which latter place there was a trl-weekly service for passengers and mail to Spring field, 111. This marked the first over land travel from East to West. Pas sengers and mail bags were Jolted along In cumbersome coaches, each with four strong horses. On account of the high rates travel was confined mainly to merchants and lawyers. The passengtr, with an allowance of 60 pounds of baggage, paid at the rate of 10 cents a mile. It is noted that Clay and Lincoln were among the fre quent passengers. FITS permanently eared.

Paraguay would seem to present the smallest chance for woman's rights progress to be found on the earth. In that country there are seven women to one man. Conse quently the men are petted and taken the greatest care of. Everything that is unpleasant or risky is done by the women. The streets are cleaned, ships loaded and the oxen driven by them, and they even go to war as substitutes for the men. It is only an application of the law of sup ply and demand, and some lazy men will probably think it a beneficent one. Chestnuts a Paying Crop. The boys may be interested to know that chestnuts prove a very profitable crop. Experts claim that an orchard of chestnuts will bring greater returns to the owner than an apple-orchard of the same size, as the nuts are retailed on the street corners at about six dollars a bush el, while the Italian who sells roasted chestnuts receives pay for them at the rate of at least eight dollars a bushel. The tree is one of the most rapid growers, and has been known to bear fruit at five years of age. St. NicWolas. Father of Rural Delivery.

Hai'lord Courant Investlaatlon of llio Packers, Very general interest has been mani fested in the Government investigation now in progress into the mode of con ducting business by Mie large packers located in Chicago and elsewhere. Much has been written upon the al leged illegal and improper modes of business procedure connected with tha packing industry; but it seems that so fur no definite charge of any kind lias been sustained and no proof of illegal or ioennitable methods lins been dis. closed to the public. While a wave of Revere criticism of this great Industrial interest Is now passing over the conn try it might be well to remember that the packers have had as" yet no oppor tunity to. make Rpeclnc denial, the many indefinite charges of wrong-doing having never been formulated so that a categorical answer could be made. The recent report of Commissioner Garfield, which embodied the results of nn official investigation undertaken by the Department of Commerce and Labor of the United States, was a vin dication of the Western packers, but this result having been unexpected at tempts In many quarters to discredit it were made. In view of the situation as it now stands, however, attention may proper ly be called to a few facts that owing to popular clamor are now being ap parently overlooked. Fair treatment in tills country lias heretofore been ac corded to all citizens whose affairs as sume prominence in the public eye and some of tlie facts that bear upon the relation of the packers to the com merce of the country may at this time be briefly alluded to. It would be difficult to estimate the benefits gained ly the fanners of the country result ing from the energetic enterprise of the packers, for whatever is of benefit to the fanner is a gain to the entire commerce of the country. And con nected with their continuous aggres sive work no feature perhaps hns been more important than their efforts in seeking outlets nil over the world for the surplus products of the farmer, Our tot :i I exports of agricultural prod ucts have gained but little in the past twenty years, ami leaving out corn, the total of all other farm products was far less in 1003 than in 1S01. But In packing house products there was con siderable gain during this period, be cause an organized and powerful fores has been behind ihem seeking new and broader markets. Besides the benefits reaped hy farm ers on account of the enterprise and energy exercised by the packers in at taining commercial results by foreign trade, the great development in the manufacture of packing house by-products has added enormously to the value of all live stock raised in the United States. The waste material of twenty years ago, then an expense to the pnckT, is now converted into nr tides of great value and, as an eco nomic fact, this must correspondingly increase the value to the farmer of every head of cattle marketed at the numerous stock yards of the country', Let these facts be remembered while now it is so popular to regard the great packing industry as deserving of condemnation. At least it must be ad mitted that, so far, there is no ade quate reason for the almost unani mous howl that may be heard every where in the face of the Garfield re port above alluded to which practical ly exonerates the packers from the ob scure and Indefinite charges that have been for some time past made the sub ject of popular comment.

The heating properties of a special coal, says the Engineering and Mining Journal, . depend mainly upon the car bon content, the oxygen being usually of no value, because it is combined with hydrogen as water. Iu gas coals, however, the excess of hydrogen is a material factor in heat production. An exp!jrer who, by stress of circum stances, has often been obliged to eat the flesh of animals not generally used as human food, says that grilled lion steaks are delicious and much super ior to those of the tlgei. The flesh of the rhinoceros, he says, when proper ly prepared, has all the good qualities if pork.

This is a suggestion .worth noting. Chari ties. Conking Without Flro. At various recent food exhibitions there has been on show an Invention for heating food- without a fire and without the usual troublesome acces sories of pots and pans. An innocent looking tomato soup tin has four holes punched at one end, and immediately that is done the whole thing begins to fizz and boil. It is left for five minutes, until the heating materials evaporate, turned upside down, nnd left for an other five minutes; then it is opened In the ordinary way, when thoroughly cooked soup can be poured out. The food, which !s prepared by some well-known firms, is of the firot quality. About a dozen varieties of soup can be had, and the same number of entrees, besides coffee, cocoa and chocolate. And the wonder of it is that no one has forestalled the ingenious American discoverer, for the secret of the process Is that cold water poured on lime brings it to the boiling point. World's Work.

"Oh, I haven't minded It," he said, cheerfully, "I just jumped on to a car and ran out to the league grounds and saw most of the ball game, and then I took a little spin in the park with Dorton in his new auto. Did you match the samples?" "One of them. It's so provoking. Fll have to come in again to-morrow, for they're closing the store now." Lipplneotf 8 Magazine. Evidence of Good Feeling t Yesterday the colored citizens of Richmond observed "Emancipation Day" and celebrated their deliverance from slavery by parading the streets, headed by a brass band and waving flags. This demonstration took place on. the anniversary of the evacuation of Richmond, yet the colored people were in no way disturbed by the whites. They marched in peace, neither giving offence nor receiving any Indignity. Could there be any bet ter evidence that the negroes of Rich mond are free to do as they please so long as they keep within the laws and within the proprieties? And could there be any better evidence that the whites and the blacks are living to gether on friendly terms? Richmond Times-Dispatch. The Polite Chinese Editor.

A speed of 61 miles was maintained' on a level stretch and 27 miles on the climb over the hill from Middle town, where the grade runs from 58 to 01 feet to the mile. The locomotive and tender weighed 3S9.750 pounds, carrying 8500 gallons of water and 16 tons of coal, and is the largest passenger engine ever built.
