1 WOMAN'S BEST HOPES REALIZED
Mrs- Potts Telia How Woman Should
Prepare for Motherhood
The darkest days of husband and
wife are when they come to look for
ward to child less and lonely old ape.
Many a wife has found herself inca
pable of motherhood owing to a dis
placement of the womb or lack of
strength in the generative organs.
Frequent backache and distressing
pains, accompanied by offensive dis
charges and generally by irregular
and scanty menstruation indicate a dis
placement or nerve degeneration of
the womb and surrounding organs.
The question that troubles women
Is how can a woman who has some fe
male trouble bear healthy children?
Mrs. Anna Potts, of .110 i'ark Avenue,
Hot Springs, Ark., writes:
llv Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
During the early part of my married life I
was delicate in health ; Iwtta my husband and
I were very anxious for a child to bless our
home, but I had two miscarriages, and could
not carry a child to maturity. A neighbor
who had been cured by LydiaE. Piiikh.im'8
Vegetable Compound advised me to try it. I
did so and soon folt that I was growing
stronger, my headaches nnd backaches left
me, f had no more bearing-down pains, and
felt like a new women. Within a year I
became the mother of a strong, healthy
child, the Joy of our home. Lydia E. Fink
ham's Vegetable Compound is certainly a
splendid remedy, and I wish every woman
wbo wants to become a mother would try it."
, Actual sterility in woman is very
rare. If any woman thinks she is ster
ile, let her try Lydia E. 1'inkham's
Vegetable Compound and write to Mrs.
Plnkham, Lynn, Mass. Her advice Is
free to expectant or would-be mothers.

PEARLS OF THOUGHT.
You do not lift another's burden by
treating it lightly.
The only love that la wasted Is that
which is paid out.
Meekness doen not buy mastery at
the cost of manliness.
Learning the duty of happiness, we
discover the happiness of duty.
No heart is more hungry than the
one that follows for the loaves alone.
Sisterllness is easily mistaken for
sanctlflcation by the man who has It.
The man with millions can never
understand why men with jobs should
go out on a strike.

Precautions Some Hotel Keepers Are
'Obliged to Take With Their Guests.
Pass keys to rooms are not the on
ly kind used in hotels. Porters are
also provided with keys that will op
en any trunk lock.
This Is necessary to keep the
guests from accumulating souvenirs
in such numbers that the hotels
would) suffer. Then tendency to col
lect souvenirs always develops most
rapidly in hotels because of tho be
lief that they can be carried away
without danger of detection.
"I cannot always tell what trunks
to open," the proprietor of an uptown
hotel said to a Sun reporter the oth
er day. "So there are occasional col
lections that get by me. But I rarely
miss the heavy takers.
"Only last week the housekeeper
called the attention of the proprietor
to the great demand for linen that
came from a certain woman guest.
8he bad been in the hotel nearly a
year, occupying a suite with a sitting
room and spending plenty or money
on food and livery.
"The suspicion that she might be
taking the sheets, towels and pillow
eases that were disappearing so
rapidly seemed improbable in the
highest degree. Suddenly she noti
fied us that she was going to leave.
"Well, I opened her trunks with
my skeleton key. They were all go
ing to her sister's house down on
the Jersey coast. That turned out to
be a boarding house which the woman
had just opened.
"In the trunks was all the missing
linen. The name of the house had
been carefully removed from all ot
it, but there was no uncertainly about
the Identification.
"We just took out the linen and sent
tbe trunks along. Of course we never
heard of tho woman again. She was
rich enough to buy all the linen sb
wanted." New York Sun.
Paylnrj the' Parson.
There was a wedding party in East
Washington the other evening at
which the bridegroom Is said to have
"queered" himself, to the mortifica
tion of his new wife nnd her relatives.
The marriage ceremony was perform
ed in the parlors of the minister, as
tho young man declared he was averse
to public displays in such matters. Af
ter the preacher had pronounced the
twain husband and wife tho bride
groom handed him a $3 bill and then
remained In a:i attitude of waiting.
"Come on, David," said the new
wife, impatiently, as the young man
continued to follow the minister
about the apartment. "What in the
world are you waiting for?"
"Waiting for my change, of course,"
was tho reply.
"How much did you hand the
preacher?" asked the wife.
"Five dollars."
"Then there w ill be no change," re
plied the wife. "Five dollars is little
enough for a marriage fee."
"I don't think so," rejoined the hus
band. "Five long green Is too much
of a fee to pay a preacher for saying
a few words and' wishing you a happy
life and prosperity. But then, I do
not know anything about such things.
You see, this is the first time I was
ever married." Washington Star.
Animals and Men.
With all wild animals, it is a notice
able fact that a course of contact with
man continuing over many genera
tions of animal life causes a species
so to adapt itself to its new surround
ings that it can hold its own far bet
ter than formerly. -When white men
take up a new country, the game, and
especially the big game, being entire
ly unused to qontid with the new
foe, succumb easily,, and are almost
completely killed off. If any indiv
iduals survive at all, however, the suc
ceeding generations are far more dif
ficult to exterminate than were their
ancestors, and they cling much more
tenaciously to their old homes. The
game to be found in old and long-settled
countries Is, of course, much
more wary and able to take care ot
Itself than the game of an untrodden
wilderness; it is the wilderness life,
far more than the actual killing of the
wilderness game, which tests the abil
ity of the wilderness hunter. Theod
ore Roosevelt, in Scrlbner's.

There Is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than a)' other diseases put together,
and until the last few years was supposed to
be Incurable. For a great many years doctors

cure with local treatment, pronounced it in

THE "COFFEE HEART
It ia as UariT-rous the Tobacco M
Whisky Heart.
"Coffee heart" is common to many
coffee users and is liable to send tbe
owner to his or her long home If the
drug Is persisted in. You can run thir
ty or forty yards and find out if your
beast Is troubled. A lady wbo was
once a victim of tbe "coffee heart"
writes from Oregon:
"I have been a habitual user of cof
fee all my life nnd have suffered very
much In recent years from ailments
which I became satisfied were directly
due to the poison in tbe beverage, such
bs torpid liver and Indigestion, which
In turn made my complexion blotchy
and muddy.
"Then n.y heart beonme affected. It
would beat most rapidly just after I
drank my coffee, nud go below normal
ns tbe coffee effect wore off. Some
times my pulse would go ns high as
137 bents to the minute. My family
were greatly alarmed at my condition,
and at last mother persuaded me to
begin the use of Posluin Food Coffee.
"I gave up the old coffee entirely and
absolutely, and made Tostum my sole
table beverage. This was six months
ago, snd all my Ills, the Indigestion,
Inactive liver and rickety henrt action
have passed away, and my complexion
has become clear nnd natural. The
Improvement set In very soon after I
made tbe change. Just as soon as the
coffee poison bad time to work out of
uiy system.
"My husband has also been greatly
benefited by the use of Tostum, and
we find that a simple breakfast with
I'ostum is as satisfying and mors
strengthening than the old heavier
meal we used to have with the other
kind of coffee." Name given by Tos

If a despatch from Richmond, Va.,
telling of one ot Cupid's latest mir
acles in the Old Dominion, Is not a
bit of fiction, the fountain of perpet

not in Florida. According to this cap

years old, six times married, the fa
ther of forty-four children, secured a
license at the Henrico County Clerk's
office on Tuesday to wed Ann Qreen,
who Is 60 years .old and no novice in
matrimony." Mr. Kinney, when asked
why he intended to marry the seventh
time, replied: "I need a helpmeet."
All the world loves a lover, so here's
happiness and prosperity to the Vir

Relieving the Brain.
The persistent use of the musclar
system is well calculated to relive the
brain and nervous system of their ten
sion. It is also true that manual work
pleases and satisfies the mind when
its results are good. All this becomes
clearer when we realize how vainly
we may seek relief from nervous fa
tigue in physical rest or even In re
creations of the ordinary sort. The
quiet room or tbe quiet hillside, so
suggestive of rest and peace these
are too often important in the pre
sence of carking care. One reason for
this failure is that the brain and the
body are commonly not tired in what
is called nervous exhaustion, but are
only Irritated, while the sense of fa
tigue, which Is so misleading, is
merely the result of that irritation
and may be termed a physic fatigue.
Under these circumstances It is easy
to understand that it Is change, not
necessarily physical rest, which Is so
sorely needed. Good Housekeeping.
