Threo Women Relieved ot Female
Troubles by Mrs. Pinkham.
From Mrs. A. W. SMITII, 50 Summer
St., Hiddeford, Me.:
44 For seveial years I suffered with
various diseases peculiar to my sex.
Was troubled with a burning sensation
across the small of my back, that all
gone feeling, was despondent, fretful
and discouraged; the least exertion
tired me. I tried several doctors but
received little benefit. At last I de
cided to give your Lydia E. Pinkliam'a
Vegetable Compound a trial. The ef
fect of the first bottle was magical.
Those symptoms of weakness that I
was aQicted with, vanished like vapor
before the sun. I cannot speak too
highly of your valuable remedy. It is
truly a boon to woman."
From Mrs. MELISSA PniLLirs, Lex
ington, Ind., to Mrs. Pinkham:
"Before I began taking your medicine
I had suffered for two 3'ears with that
tired feeling, headache, backache, no ap
petite, and a run-down condition of the
system. I could not walk across the
room. I have taken four bottles of tho
Vegetable Compound, one box of Liver
JPills and used one package of Sanative
Wash, and now feel like a new woman,
and am able to do my work."
From Mrs. MOLLIE E. IIERREL, Pow

BRITAIN'S BEST GENERAL
SIR H. HERBERT KITCHENER HAS HAD
AN ADVENTUROUS CAREER.
striking; Incidents in the Life of This Re
markable Irishman—Having; Crushed
the I>ervishes His Grateful Country is
Showering: Honors Upon Him.
Like Wellington, Wolseley anil
Roberts, Major-General Horatio Her
bert Kitchener is an Irishman, having
been born in the "Kingdom of Kerry"
some forty-seven years ago. He is
tall, standing full six feet in bis stock
ing feet, and dark skinned—whioh
latter is but natural after twenty years
of service in Africa. Finding his com
mission in the Royal Engineers too
peaceful, bo fought as a volunteer in
the two great European wars of recent
times—against the Prussians with
General Chanzy's army of the Loire,
and against the Czar's soldiers in the
Balkans, under Baker Fasha. But
most of his service has been in tho
East, where he first went in charge of
a party of surveyors iu Palestine.
Here he began to aoquire his re
markable knowledge of Oriental lan
guages and tribes, of which many
stories are told. For example, at one
of his army's camps on the Nile, two
Arab date sellers were arrested as sus
pected spies, aud confined in the guard
tent. Shortly nfterwnrd a third Arab
prisoner was hastily bundled into the
tent. An animated jabbering ensued
between the three, and in a fen- min
utes, much to tho astonishment of the
sentry, the lalest arrivul drew aside
the doorway and stepped out, remark
ing: "All right sentry; I'm going to
the General."
It was Kitchener. Again, only a
fow minutes passed when an orderly
hurried up, and a spado was handed
to eaoh of tho two Arabs, who were
marched outside the linos, dug their
graves, and wero Bhot. They wero
two dangerous spies and Kitchener
had detected them.
Probably because he has thus been
a wanderer on the face of tho earth—
a modern Ulysses, who has very liter
ally "seen many men aud known their
minds"—perhaps also becauso he has
been a terribly busy man from his
early youth, Sir Herbert has never
married. In his forty-eighth year he
is still a baohelor. But perhaps mar
riage will come in the near future with
all the other desirable things that his
grateful oountry is preparing for him.
It is stated in some quarters that his
honors for Omdurman will include a
heavy money grant, in addhion to a
peerage.
Kitchener began his oareer by very
slow steps, taking twelve years to gain
his Captaincy in the engineers. But
direotly his chance carno his ooolness
and self-command, his indomitable
onergy, and his miraculous capacity
for hard work marked him out as a
man of notion. The turning point in
his career came when General Sir
Evelyn Wood undertook the reorgan
ization of tho Egyptian Army. He
took service under Wood in 1881, and
in 1885 his marvellous knowledge of
the native mind and language brought
him to the front. He was sent ahead
of Sir Garnet Wolseley to deal with
the native chiefs and ofiicials whose
attitude was uncertain. Tho follow
ing picturesque account of him when
engaged on this ticklish mission was
written by an enthusiastic admirer of
the Sirdar soon after the victory of
Atbara:
"Tho first tini e I saw Kitchener ho
was alone and unarmed among the
semi-hostile Arabs, endeavoring to
persuade them that their interests
would bo best served if they took part
with British and Egyptian forces
against tho dervish rebellion. It was
a strange sight to see this tall, slim,
blue-eyod Irishman armed only with
illimitable self-confidence and fearless
ness, arguing with, and sometimes
threatening, the powerful chiefs who,
for aught he knew, might have been
sworn allies of the tribe that had just
murdered Colonel Donald Stewart and
Consul Power not many miles further
up the Nile.
"Wheu persuasive reasoning failed,
he did not shrink from telling
theso people what their punishment
would be when" the White Emir and
his legions onme upon them, meaning
Lord Wolseley with tho British
battalions that wore then toiling slowly
up tho Catnraot. Those brave words,
in which there was no doubt a tonoli
of boastfulness pardonable iu the cir
cumstances, frequently gave rise to
angry murmurs and sullen looks, but
they were met by tho glance of eyes
that would not have quailed if looking
at grim death—eyes that in such
moments glow so curiously that the
light in them seems fixed as if sud
denly frozen."
It was Sir Herbert Kitchener who
went ahead of Sir Herbert Stewart's
column with two native guides in the
first dash for the wells of Gakoni.
Near there a notorious rolrber lender,
who had accompanied the Mahdists in
their meroiless raids, was surprised
and chased by Nineteenth Hussar
soouts. He and his few followers
would probably have esoaped if Kitch
ener, who was well mounted, had not
overtaken them. Alone, and far ahead
of the hnssars, he closed with these
ferocious free-booters, and called upon
them to surrender. The cool daring
that had so often succeeded told in
this moment. Deceived by it into
the belief that they were surrounded
by unseen foes whom the hold Eng
lishman had at his command, thoy
parleyed and were lost, for this gave
the hussars time to come up and make
prisoners of the band. It was a hold
and characteristic act, which estab
lished Kitchener's reputation with
British soldiers.
At tho crisis of tho Dongola ex
pedition, when it became necessary
to seize a strategic point, sc that sup
plies might accumulate there before
the Nile got too low for river transport.
tr.pical storms of violenoe previously
unknown in these regions washed
away sections of the railway on whioh
these supplies were in a great measure
dependent. Following upon cholera
and other sickness in his corps, this
fresh disaster seemed overwhelming.
But he stood up against it with
characteristic fortitude.
In twenty-four hours the distribu
tion of forces along the line of com
mifnication was so arranged that bat
tallions could be set free for fatiguo
work on the railway. He went to in
speot several points where great dam
age had occurred, looked at ruined
bridges and broken embankments with
the eye of an engineer, told the offioers
that these things must bo repaired in
so many days, and then, confident in
the effect of that word "must," went
away, leaving them to their own re
sources. Though the task thus set
seemed in some cases herculean, it
was done, and trains were running
again on the renewed line on the very
day which he had named for the com
pletion of the work.
FootUall an Aiiclont Game.
Football was a favorite game In an
cient Greece, especially in Hparta; and
the Romans also took great delight in
playing it. We get it from England
where it has been played for hundreds
of years. Some authorities think it
was introduced into Britain by Caesar,
but the earliest mention of it is by
William Fitzstephen, in his descrip
tion of London in the twelfth century.
It was much played on holidays, and
especially on Shrove Tuesday. At one
time it was customary for the meu of
the different villages in the midland
counties of England to play against
each other—every able-bodied man be
ing usually pressed into service. Des
perate struggles often took place dur
ing these matches, whioh sometimes
grew into riots and produoed long and
bitter feuds. So dangerous did the
game become that King James I de
barred all rough and violent exercise
"as football, meeter for lameling than
making able the users thereof." As
early played at the great English
schools, as Rugby, Eton and Harrow,
it "gradually changed from being a
mere struggle between two sides to
kick the ball from one end of the field
to the other to one far more iutricato.
At each school new features were in
troduced until several forms of the
game were developed. About 1860
football clubs began to be formed near
the large cities, and soon afterward
players began to favor tho adoption of
a set of rules to govern all English
football play, exoluding all the brutal
features of the game. At first it was
found impossible to come to any agree
ment, but in 1860 rules were adopted
in accordance with the views of those
who did not favor brute force in car
rying out this sport. In 1875 Harvard
and Yale played their first game of
football according to these rulos, and
soon afterward it became popular in
the colleges. In this country the
game is usually played from about tho
Ist of October till the end of Novem
ber.—Saturday Night,,
The Last of the Delaware*.
The proposed exodus of the Dela
ware Indians from the United States
to Mexico is the latest and most
shameful commentary in the history
of our dealings with tho Indian tribes.
These Indians always have been
peace Indians. They have not only
kept peace with the white man, but
they have been his allies and pro
tectors against the savage tribes of the
West.
They surrendered the first of their
lauds to William l'enn, and they have
been engaged in the same sort of real
estato transactions ever since. Their
present and last stand is in the Indian
Territory, where their neighbors, the
Cherokees, are seeking to compel
them to put their tribal lauds, which
they bought and paid for, into a com
mon pool, and the case is now pend
ing in tho United States Court of
Claims.
They have finally lost faith in the
white man and propose to take up
their abode in Mexico, where the In
dian enjoys all the rights and privi
leges accorded to other inhabitants
and where a laud title in the name of
an Indian is as valid and lasting as if
it were in the name of a ruling don.
The great Chief Logan saw with n
prophetic eye the decline of his tribe,
but with nil his forebodiugs of tho
future he could not have imaginod
such a humiliating end of the Dela
wares' greatness.—Chicago Times-
Herald.
Keys Attached to Kings.
Of the early useful rings the key
ring will appeal very strongly to mnuy
moderns. This was a combination
ring, with a small key taking the
place of the seal or gem. This was
usually tho key to some treasure box
which it was undesirable to have any
one open except the owner. It wasn't
easy to mislay a key of this kind. One
of the Borgias had a ring of this kind
with a poisoned needle concealed in
the key. An unsuspeoting enemy
could easily be disposed of by nsking
him to unlock acabinotwith this ring.
If ho assented, a slight pressure as lie
turned the key would discharge the
poison into his system. Split rings
that could be adjusted to various fin
gers, double rings, plain on the out
side but bearing an inscription or
charm on an inner surfaoo entiroly
concealed from prying eyes, and lingi
of fantastic shapes departing from the
circular, were among those which de
| lighted our very remote ancestors.
A Perfect Pun.
The following is a remark of Sydney
\ Smith, made on hearing a little girl
read who persisted in reading "part
-1 ridges" for "patriarchs." Said the
great wit, "She is determined on
! making game of the patriarohs." A
prominent writer declares this to be
the most perfect pun he has ever
! heard.

Surprise has been expressed that the
Ashburnham first folio Shakespeare
brought only $2,925 at a recent sale.
It was supposed that not less than $4,-

were discovered, which were thought
to detract from its value.
Mr. Swinburne left Oxford without

CURE FOR COLD FEET.
Simple Means for Avoiding a Com mom
Winter Affliction.
Before many more days shall have
elapsed not a few Chicago women will
be suffering from a complaint which
makes the shortest Journey out of
doors a terror and thus aggravates the
trouble when going abroad becomes
unavoidable. Cold feet are not un
common even in warm weather, but
the suffering at such times is mild,
while in the fall and winter it Is little
less than torture. A doctor who was
consulted on the subject has this to
say: "Physical disorders of the most
unexpected nature are traceable to this
complaint. It can be safely said that
a large proportion of lung diseases are
due to cold feet. The blood repelled
from the extremities goes to the lungs
And congests them. Asthma arises
from the same caulb, and brain and j
eye troubles can sometimes he traced 1
to habitually cold feet. I don't say
that women are wholly to blame for
this a miction, because that is not true.
The cause is often traced back to ohild
hood, when thin stockings and shoes
too small for growing feet prevented
a proper circulation of the blood. And
some perhaps wore garters which had
to be tight to do their duty, and when
they reached womanhood the mischief
had been fully done. They were then
obliged to suffer on, if they knew
enough, to mitigate their suffering by
such sensible remedies as rubbing and
warm bathing, with a proper regard
for the covering of the feet. Wear
woolen, cotton or silk stockings, ac
cording to your comfort. If the feet
are prone to be dry as well as cold
they should be soaked In hot water for
ten minutes every night, thoroughly
dried and rubbed with a small quan
tity of sweet oil, bestowing special at
tention upon the soles. Nothing that
can keep the feet comfortable should
| be considered a trouble, as, aside from
j the fact of their affecting the physical
condition, their relation to the nerves
must be considered. Trouble with
the feet means a nerve-wearing strain.
The following has sometimes proved a
Bimplo cure for cold feet: Stand erect
and gradually lift yourself to the tips
of the toes, coming to the natural po
sition in the same easy manner. Re
peat this exercise several times each
day and the circulation of the blood
must be improved. Diet has some
thing to do with the degree ct' improve
ment, and afflicted women are advised
to shun much salted meat,pies and rich
puddings."
Proper Way.
"Abner," asked the wife of the ed
itor of the Flunkville Bugle, looking
up from her latest "take," "don't you
think It is a sin for you to write those
Washington dispatches right here in

sponded the editor. "I have always
been taught that the way to get a
thing done right is to do it yourself."—

cayed fruit. In orchards, oxen and
cows, after eating overripe apples, have
been seen to display all the symptoms
of drunkenness. They stagger, their
eyes lose expression and they grow
sleepy. It seems that animals are sus
ceptible to alcoholism in proportion to
the development of their intelligence.
Elephants are fond of wine and rum,
and rats gnaw the staves of wine casks
to get at the contents. Cats, how
ever. rarely exhibit a fondness for in
toxicants. Among birds the parrot
takes first place as an habitual toper.
Insects have many opportunities to be
come intoxicated, and it is the most
active that most frequently avail
themselves of the chance. There Is an |
aromatic, intoxicating fluid In linden j
blossoms for which bees show an |
especial fondness. Instances have been
observed where swarms of bees re
galed themselves with the poisonous |
linden nectar until they exhibited all 1
the signs of intoxication. Hundreds
fell helplessly to the roadside, to be
trampled under foot.— New York Her
