Been Helped by Mrs. Pinkham.
Women who have suffered severely
and been relieved of their ills by Mrs.
Pinkham's advice and medicine are
constantly urging publication of their
statements for the benefit of other wo
men. Here are two such letters:
Mr 3. LIZZIE BEVERLY, 258 Merrimac
St., Lowell, Mass., writes:
44 It affords me great pleasure to tell
all suffering women of the benefit I have
received from taking Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound. I can hard
ly find words to ex press my gratitude for
what she has done forme. My troublo
was ulceration of the womb. I was un
der the doctor's care. Upon examina
tion he found fifteen very large ulcers,
but he failed to do me good. I took sev
eral bottlcsof Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound, also used the Sanative
Wash, and am cured. Mrs. Pinkham's
medicine saved my life, and I would
recommend it to all suffering women."

ROENTGEN RAYS IN WAR.
A PORTABLE APPARATUS FOR THE
USE OF ARMY SURCEONS.
Result* of the Employment of X Rays In
Military Surgery on the Recent Fron
tier Expedition in India—Working the
Apparatus at the Front.
At the Boyal United Service Insti
tution, London, Surgeon Major W. C.
Beevor, Army Medical Staff, delivered
an addross 011 "The Working of the
Roentgen Bays in Warfare." The lec
ture was based on the result of experi
ences the officer gained during the re
cent operations on the northwest fron
tier in India.
Surgeon Major Beevor at the outset
snid his object was to give the results
of the employment of the Boentgen ray
in military surgery on the recent fron
tier expedition in Indin, and then to
lay before them some modifications in
the construction of the appliances for
generating the X ray, which had sug
gested themselves to him after work
ing among the wounded on the field
battle and its adjacent hospitals. He
invited their criticism in the hope that
Some useful advance in the science
might be originated, nnd additions
mado to our efforts toward alleviating
human suffering, and proving that
surgeons were aiming, as our illus
trious forefathers ever aimed, nt plac
ing at least one more niche in the
Temple of iEsculapins. He proceeded,
with the aid of magic lantern slides
thrown upon a screen, to give repre
sentations of cases of interest from the
campaign. These consisted of bullet
wounds sustained by officers and men
who had injured bones, joints, nnd in
ternal organs, baffling the skill of sur
geons to ascertain their exact position,
and which, but for the application of
the X rays, mast have resulted in
nmpntation of limbs and probable loss
of life. The pictures shown included
wounds in the aim, leg, chest, back,
finger, and other parts of the body.
The most remarkable results ob
tained by the Boentgen rays were per
haps those in the cases of a bnllet im
bedded in the backbone, another in
the hip, and an Indian soldier, who, at
Bawal Pindi, was shot in the foot,
pieces of the bnllet finally lodging in
the back of the heel, and the case of
General Woodhonse, who received
bullet wounds in the leg and arm at
Dargai. In every one of tho instanees
enumerated, the bullets were, by the
use of the rays, successfully removed,
the men subsequently rejoining their
comrades at the front. One great de
sideratum in the construction of all
apparatus for military work was that
they 9houldbe "get-at-able," thus en
abling them to renovate the inevitable
defects of wear and tear. Every por
tion of their apparatus should un
doubtedly be easy of nccess; the coil,
the condenser, connections, etc.,
should all be packed in cases that
could be opened nnd inspected at a
moment's notice without tho necessity
of special instruments, and, with a
view to obtaining this desirable con
dition, the Medical Department of the
army spared no expense or trouble,
having, after due consideration, or
dered the latest and most-improved
apparatus, a specimen of which he ex
hibited.
Considering the mo9t desirable
moans of transport for their appara
tus, he pointed out that it was not
only possible, but quite easy, to have
an X ray appratua working at the
front; that the cases already exhibited
contained indisputable proof that even
in savage warfare, where the Geneva
Convention was unknown, the X ray
could be brought under control and
an immensity of human suffering ob
viated. It was not necessary that
every field hospital or bearer company
should be supplied with an apparatus,
as it could be readily transported from
one part to another of the field of
operatiohs. He maintained it was
now the duty of every civilized Nation
to snpply its wounded in war with an
X ray apparatus, among other surgi
cal aids, not only at base hospitals,
but close at hand, wherever they
might be fighting and exposing them
selves to injury in the performance of
their hazardous duty. (Cheers.) After
trying every kind of transport in In
dia—mules, camels, wheeled vehicles,
etc.—he came to the conclusion that
by far the safest and most satisfactory
iu every respect washnman transport;
coolie labor oould be obtained in
most places, nnd where not, any Eu
ropean could be employed.
As the portable apparatus should
not weigh more than from eighty to
100 pounds, two men were all that
was required for the moment, and a
reserve of two more, with reserve
equipment, completed the transport.
A bßmboo pole or hollow steel bar of
about six feet in length was what he
found the best construction from
which to suspend the boxes; each end
of the pole was carried on the heads
or shoulders of the bearers, and the
boxes were slung from the pole. Iu
Tirah ho employed a disused Dhoolie
pole and Dhoolie bearers to convey
his apparatus; they willingly volun
teered for tho service, anil carried the
whole apparatus from Bagh Camp, in
Tirah, down the defile to Dwatoi, and
down the Bara Valley to Peshawur,
without injury; pnrts of this march
were beset with difficulties seldom
experienced in nny kind of warfare,
nnd yet these faithful followers landed
their charge in good working order
at a tim e when it was sorely needed.
A few photographs he took during
this march served to show the difficul
ties of transport in such a country;
yet photography could not adequately
exhibit the conditions, for rocks, icy
cold water, rapid torrents, frost and
snow did not come entirely within the
grip of their photographic lenses.
Mules, camels, and wheeled transport
were too uncertain t conveyances for
delicate materials, except, of conrse,
there they had good roads and
plenty of room; but our military ap
paratus should be independent ol
these luxuries, and it seemed to him
that this transport fulfilled the neces
sary conditions. He then dealt with
the difficulties specially involved in
working the apparatus at the front.
The Pecan Nut.
What the chestnut is to Italy the
pecan is becoming to the United States.
Most of the nute come from Texas,
where the pecan groves have alreadj
brought wealth to their owners. Al
though the supply has increased with
great rapidity from year to year, it is
still behind the demand, which comes
not only from the United States and
Canada, but of late years from Eng
land and the Continent. The tree is
very handsome and prolific, and be
gins to bear when quite young. Its
popularity is appreciated by the Texas
farmers, who are planting thousand!
of acres at the present time to increaal
the output in the immediate future.
Professor Kellogg declares the pecan
nut to be an ideal food, and Miss Cor
nelia C. Bedford, the President of the
Teachers' Association, recommends
it in many forms. In one of her lec
tures upon the subject she employs it
in the making of ice-cream, in salads,
in the stuffing of birds, in cake-mak
ing, in candy and other culinary
shapes. The latest use of the pecan
is grinding it into a meal about as fine
as medium cornmeal. In this form il
can be made into simple biscnits, rolls
and bread just as is done with corn
meal.—New York Mail and Express.
Ll Hang Chnng'tj Latest Escape.
A private despatch from Pekiu to a
high Chinese ex-official states that as
Li Hnng Chang was on the point ol
entering the precincts of the Grand
Audience Hall three minutes after
midnight, to have an interview with
the Emperor, and just as. he was
passing through the double line of Im
perial Guards nt the Palace gates, n
man dressed entirely in black, who it
appeared had been concealing him
self behind the Guards, suddenly
broke through the line and, getting
withing striking distance of the old
statesman, launched a blow at his
head. Fortunately Li Hung Chang
had noticed the commotion made by
the man breaking through the Guards
—possibly he had been informed of
the probability of such attacks and
therefore was on the qui vive—and
managed to partially evade the blow.
The assailant was cut down by a
Guardsman.—North China Gazette.
One Way to Efripc Trouble.
A singular custom prevails among
the Tartars or Kurds. If a man gets
into difficulties—i. c., loses his cattle
or other movable property—he pours
a little brown sugar into a piece of
colored cloth, ties it up and carries
one such parcel to each of his friends
and acquaintances. In return he is
presented, according to circumstances,
with a cow or sheep, or a sum of
money. Ho is thus at once set on his
legs again. Tho same method is
adopted when a young man wishes tc
marry, bnt is not in a position to sat
isfy the parents of his intended bride
in the matter of the "bashlyg"—i. e.,
marriage dower. Only in this case
he does not go round himself, but
sends a friend or a servant.
A Fruit DM.
A fruit diet has often been known
to cure where every other remedy has
failed. Thousands of cases which
have been given np as hopeless have
been cured through this means. To
fruit feeders such things as rheuma
tism, gout, lumbago, sciatica, gravel,
etc., are seldom known. Dyspepsia,
nervoa9 irritability, to say nothing of
numbers of other diseases, can, more
or less, be traced to a wrong diet, and
are removable when a correct, frugiv
orous one is adopted. If, therefore,
a fruit diet has indeed nothing else to
recommend it, its curative powers
would be great enough to insist upon
its value.
A Dwarf Fainting.
What is perhaps the smallest paint
ing in the world is the work of a
Flemish artist. The canvas is the
smooth side of a kernel of common
white corn. So skillfully has the ar
tist worked that even in this small
space there is painted a picture of
considerable latitude. There is a mill
on a terrace, a miller with a sack of
grain on his back. By the building
stands a horse and car, and in the
roadway is a group of pensants.
Dark Women Most Popular.
Scientific experiments conducted on
a small scale indicate that dark wom
en are more sought as wives than fair.
Seven handled and thirty-seven wom
en chosen at random were examined
for this purpose. Of those who had
red, flaxen or light brown hair, 551
per cent, were married. Of those
who had dark brown or black hair
seventy-nine per cent, were married.
A New Carpet Clenner.
Carpets can be cleaned without re
moving them from tho floor by a new
machine which lias metal strips set
inside a casing to heat the carpet as
the cleaner runs over the floor, a fan
being mounted in the top of the easing
to draw the dust into a water com
partment which has an air passage
covered by a moistened screen to re
tain the dust, particles.
The Revolving Atlantic Ocean.
Experiments have been going on for
the past twelve years for the purpose
of trying to learn something of the
characteristics of the Atlantic Ocean
as a great moving body of water. As
a result the whole Atlantic is shown to
be slowly circulating round and round
like an enormons pool.
New Kind of Window Fane.
A novel sort of window glass has
been invented. Persons on the in
side of the house can see through it,
but it is opaque to those ou the out

HOUSEHOLD MATTERS.
To Remove Paper From Walla.
Steam seems the most efficacious
agent for removing pictures which
have been, in an evil moment, pasted
to a wall. The little five-o'clock tea
kettle may be used. Hot water dabbed
on the paper usually only brings it
away in spots.
For Summer Cooking.
The oil-stove is a great convenience
and comfort in hot months, when it
does away with the long-continued
heat of coal. Two small ones are to
recommended rather than one ot
larger size. They nro moved more
easily, and both burners can be used
better.
A Baby's Table.
A bread-and-milk-table is an at
tractive piece of nursery furniture in
oak or enameled wood. It consists of
a child's low table with vis-a-vis seats,
the three pieces held together at tho
bottom by a wooden vail. No mis
haps of bowls or pitcher tumbling in
to children's laps is possible, asnl a
naughty baby's efforts to kick over
the table cannot succeed in this in
stance.
How to I'rpM Embroidery Properly.
In all cases of embroidery on linen
the work should be carefully pressed
when finished, and it is important for
every embroiderer to know how this
may lie done in the simplest and safest
manner. The proper way to press the
finished work is to lay the embroidery
face down on a clean cloth spread
over an ironing blanket or two or
three thicknesses of flannel. Place n
thin, dampened cloth on the back of
the article to be pressed and then use
a hot iron deftly on the wet surface
until it is perfectly dry. A steaming
process i 3 thus engendered wh ;reby
the embroidered linen is rendered
smooth and the effectiveness of the
work much euhuueed.—The Bouquet.
Ibinlslitng the Troublesome Fly,
In a recent treatise on injurious
insects the writer suggests a simple
mode of clearing a room of flies. They
will naturally be found at the windows,
where they are attracted by the light.
The lower sash should be drawn down
to shut closely, the upper lowered
perhaps a foot from the top. Then
pull the shade down, and the flies,
following their natural instinct, crawl
up the glass to the top, and, finding
the opening, fly out and off. After
wards closed blinds or screens keep
them out. The book says further that
a honse-fiy does not bite, but merely
puts its proboscis on meu and animals
to absorb the moisture of the skin.
Biting may not be tho scientifte word
for the fly's performance, but "absorb
ing moisture," it may be said, does
not begin to describe suitably his ung
ging little way of a summer morniug
when one's final nap is dependent on
relief from him.

Recipes.
Honey Fruit-Cake—Four eggs, five
cups of flour, two cups of honey, one
eup of butter, one cup of sweet milk,
two teaspooufuls of cream of tartar,
one teaspoouful of soda, one pound of
raisins, one pound of currants, half a
pouud of citron, one teaspoouful each
of cloves, cinnamon and nutmeg.
Bake in a slow oven.
Liver With Tomato Sauce—Slice
and fry liver as usual. Place in hot
platter without gravy. While the
liver is frying bring to the boiling
point one teacupful of finely cut fresh
tomatoes, or canned tomatoes wheu
these are out of season, two table
spoonfuls of butter aud one-half tea
spoonful eneh of pepper and salt. Boil
this sauce ten minutes, pour over the
liver and serve immediately.
Cream of Celery Soup—Oue bunch
of celery, one pint of water, one pint
of milk, one teaspoouful minced lemon
peeling, one tablespoonful minced
onion, one tablespoonfulof butter, one
tablespoonful flour, oue-half teaspoon
ful salt, one-fourth teaspoouful white
pepper. Cook the celery twenty min
utes ia the water, tho onions minced
very fine in the milk. Combine them
with the seasoning and serve quickly
after three minutes together.
Frothed Eggs—Separate as many
eggs as are desired, keeping the yolks
perfectly whole and allowing them to
remain in half the shell while you
beat the whites to a stiff froth. Ar
range the whites in individual egg
cups, leaving a little well in the cen
ter like a nest. Into this center put
the yolks of the eggs unbroken, stand
the cups i:i a pc.n of boiling water,
cover with' another pan, cook about
two minutes, serve in the cups with a
little salt, pepper and butter.
Cold Fltfb.
In a store where home aquarium sup
plies are sold there are, besides the
usual varied assortment of glacs
globes, a number of larger tanks of va
rious shapes and sizes, in which stock
Is kept for sale. The tanks themselves
are, of course, sold If there is a de
mand for them.
Lying across the corner of the largest
of these tanks Is a little net, the hoop
no more than five or 6lx inches in diam
eter, and the handle about a foot long.
This Is to scoop up the gold fishes
when they are sold. When a new out
fit is sold complete the fishes are de
livered in the globe or tank. It often
happens, however, that the person al
ready owning a globe wants to replace
fl6k that have been lost, or to add to
his stock, and he goes to tho store
where such things are sold and buys
one or more gold fishes, Just as he
would buy any merchandise, except
that Instead of sitting down at a coun
ter to make his selections, he bends
over a tank and indicates among the
fishes swimming about the oues be
wantf. As he makes bis selections the
dealer scoops them out with the little
net, and as likely as not the purchaser
carries the fish he has bought, a single

the mother's own words. She said:
"On the 23th of Sept., 18'JG, while in the
bloom of health, Beatrice was suddenly
and severely afflicted with spinal menlu
gitis. Strong and vigorous before, in live
weeks she became feeble and suffered from
a paralytic stroke which twisted her head
back to the side and made it impossible
for her to move a limb. Iler speech, how
ever. was not affected. We called in our
family doctor, one of tho most experienced
and successful practitioners in the city.
Ho considered the case a very grave one.
Before long little Beatrice was compelled
to wear a piaster parts jacket. Prominent
physicians were consulted, electric but
teries were applied, but no benefit was no
ticed until wetried Dr. Williams' Fink Pills.
"Busy in my kitchen one afternoon I was
startled by the cry of 'Mamma' from little
Beatrice who was creoping towards me. I
bad placed her oil an improvised bed in the
parlor comfortably close to tho fireside
and given her some book 9 and playthings.
She became tired of waiting for me to come
back and made up her mind to go to me,
so her story, 'My Pink Pills made me
walk,' which she tolls everyone who comes
to our house, was then for the first time
verified. She has walked ever slnco. She
has now taken about nine boxes ot the
pills and her pale and pinched face has
been growing rosy, and her limbs gained
strength day by day. Shesleeps all night
long now, while before taking the pills she
could rest but a few hours at a time." Dr.
