— ~_—— ee WHY MRS. PINKHAM Is Able to Help Sick Women When Doctors Fail. How gladly would men fly to wo- man’s aid did they but understand a woman’s feelings, trials, sensibilities, and peculiar organic disturbances. Those things are known only to women, and the aid a man would give is not at his command. To treat a case properly it is neces- sary to know all about it, and full information, many times, cannot be given by a woman to’ her family phy- Mars. G. H. CHAPPELL. sician. She cannot bring herself to tell everything, and the physician is at a constant disadvantage. This is why, for the past twenty-five years, thousands of women have been con- fiding their troubles to Mrs. Pinkham, and whose advice has brought happi- ness and health to countless women in the United States. Mrs. Chappell, of Grant Park, IIL, whose portrait we publish, advises all suffering women to seek Mrs. Pink- ham’s advice and use Lydia E. Pink- ham’s Vegetable Compound, as they cured her of iaflammation of the ovaries and womb ; she, therefore, speaks from knowledge, and her experience ought to give others confidence. Mrs. Pink- bam’s address is Lynn, Mass., and her advice is absolutely fre His Lack of Directness. The young man was embarrassed, but he began bravely: “It cannot be a surprise to you, Miss Eupherbia,” he said, “that is, you must have suspected, from the length of time I have been coming here, that I—I say that it must have been apparent to you for some time that I could have had but one object in view in—although, of course, I can’t claim that you have giv- en me any cause to be confident. Stil, you may have asked yourself, what other motive, if any, I could have had, when it must have been evident—and poioriae’) “Mr. Bullmore,” she interrupted, “please be more direct and explicit, if you can. You wabble painfully.”—Chi- cago Times. Carry Your Dinner in Your Purse. A restaurant for concentrated food is to be started in Paris by an enterpris- ing French chef. The-happy diner will enjoy asmenu of tabloids. From the hors deouvres to dessert his entire meal will be presented to him in a few square inches. In this way a busy man will be able to eat his dinner in a very few min- utes, and carry it about him in his waistcoat pocket to swallow in spare moments. Even drinks are provided in the same form, and a bottle of claret or whisky and soda can thus be carried about in one’s purse.—Home Chat. An ‘M. D.’s” Open Letter. Benton, Il., May 20.—R. H. Dunaway, M. D., of this place, in an open letter, makes the following startling state- ment. “I had Diabetes with all its worst ympicms. I applied every remedy nown to the profession, as well as ev- er prescription suggested in our In spite of all, I was dying, and any faith whatever, I commenced tak- ing Dedd’s Kidney Pills.

Since using them myself, I have used them in many cases in my practice, and they have never failed. “I am making this statement as a professional man, after having made a most thorough test of Dodd’s Kidney Pills, and because I fee? it my duty.to the public and to my _ professional brethren. The truth can never hurt any one, and what I have said is the absolute truth. “R. H. DUNAWAY, M.

Mow Norway Gained Independence From Denmark and Sweden. To every true son and daughter of Norway, the seventeenth day of May is one of deep significance. It is the Inde- pendence day of their native land, the anniversary of that day when a sturdy band of patriots arose like a young giant and tore off the shackles which had bound the little country to Den- mark for over 400 years—in fact, ever since 1397, when Queen Margaret, the Semiramis of the North, promulgated the union of the three Scandinavian countries at Kalmar, Sweden. The doughty woman was heir to the throne of Denmark, married King Hakon of Norway, and after the death of her husband and son, took the scepter her- self atid then conquered Sweden. The Swedes soon broke away from the union, but Norway remained a depend- ency of Denmark until 1814. Dissatisfaction with Danish hirelings, who filled every office in Norway, and more especially the success achieved by the people of America and France in attaining political independence, fired the hearts and minds of the more culti- vated classes in Norway with a desire for liberty. Their representatives met at Eidvold, and, on May 17, adopted the now famous constitution .and elected Prince Christian Frederic as king. Some months before, Denmark, which had been worsted in a brief war with Sweden, had, at Kiel, ceded all Norway excepting Iceland and the Foeroe is- lands, to Sweden. Old Charles XIII. was still reigning in Sweden, but the real ruler was Jean Baptiste Jules Ber- | nadotte, one of Napoleon's ablest mar- shals, who had been chosen crewn prince and adopted the name of Carl Johan. After making a triumphal en- try into Stockholm and properly cele- brating the victory over the Danes, Bernadotte assailed Norway with an army of 20,000 men, while the venerable king took charge of the navy. A small- er Swedish force of 3,000 men was re- pulsed by the Norwegians at Lier and Medskog, but before a decisive battle could be fought, Bernadotte suddenly agreed to sanction Norway's constitu- tion, the only condition being that Charles XIII. of Sweden should succeed Christian Frederic. The terms were ratified by the first Norwegian storth- ing, and Norway once more was free. Norway is not a dependency of Sweden in any way. The only bonds of union are the king and the consular and dip- lomatic service. Each country has its own constitution, its own diet or parli- ament, its own cabinet, flag, coinage, postal service, army and navy, and even a tariff against each other. Not a great deal of blood was spilled in attaining Norway’s independence, but is was all due to the sudden and in- explicable concession of Bernadotte- The Norwegians had 30,000 men in the field, and were defiantly waiting for the great marshall and his army to come within striking distance. Whether the engagements at Lier and Medskog, of which the Norwegians are very proud, had created a wholesome respect for the fighting abilities of the Norwegians in the mind of Bernadotte, as is main- tained, is now immaterial. They won their liberty, at any rate. It is no wonder that they want to re- member the 17th of May, whether they are digging gold in Alaska, in Austra- lia or South Africa, raising stock in the Argentine Republic, tilling the soil from the Atlantic to the Pacific coasts in North America, carrying the pretty tri- color of Norway into every port in the world, or living out their destiny in the land of their birth, the Norwegians cel- | ebrate the day. Norway Salmon in England. Fresh salmon have been sent from Norway to England for several years. Each year it arrives in better condition, viz., better quaality and brighter look- ing fish, and realizes higher prices. Last year Norwegian salmon realized from 8d to 1s 6d (16 to 36 cents) per pound. It is packed in large cases with a plentiful supply of ice. The fish most in demand weigh from eight to fourteen pounds each. It takes about fourteen days from the time a salmon {s caught in Norway until it arrives in London. This industry prompts Consul General William M. Osborne, at London, to in- quire of the American fish exporters it it would not be possible to ship fresh, instead of frozen fish, to England. The British people do not care for frozen. goods. Orsa’s Wisdom. The inhabitants of Orsa, in Sweden, something more than a generation ago. started in upon a systematic course of tree-planting and forestry. Asa result, in the period since then they have sold $4,600,000 worth of trees, and by judi- cious replanting, which is the vital point in scientific forestry, they have provid- ed for a similar income every thirty or forty years. The income from the for- est—held as public property—is said to pay the cost of the local government. including free railways, telephones and public schools. Local taxes are un- known. In General. Four sisters recently baptised at Fredrikshold, Norway, were two pairs of twins born to the wife of a laborer within a year.

Three newspapers in Norway, Eids- vold, Nationalbladet and Normanden. have consolidated under the name Nationalbladet, with Harald Kristoff- ersen as editor. Miss Sophie Bornemann, head of the Norway Red Cross institution for nurses, has been presented with a handsome gold medal by Gen. Thanlow in behalf of King Oscar. Capt. Emil Baarsen of Namsos, Nor- way, has patented a life and fishing boat, which is self-righting and impos- sible te sink. Patents have been se- cured in Norway and England. Norway keeps going when it gets started. Last year the elective fran- chise was extended to all classes in elections to the storthing. Recently the odelsthing has extended the suf- frage to-civic elections and has gone even further by including all women who pay taxes on an income of 300 kroner, about $80. WHAT WE HEAR FROM ASSINIBOIA, WESTERN CANADA, “Don't Think of Coming, but Come.” To the Editor: The above is the em- phatic manner in which a friend in Yorkton writes to a friend near St. Paul, Minnesota, and it is pretty near- ly right, too, with the advantages that Western Canada offers to those seeking homes. The Assiniboia dis- trict is one of the best. The writer from whose letter we quote goes on to Bay: “John, if you miss this chance you are foolish, for you can get out cheap- er when there are so many coming, and I would not tell you to come if 1 thought you could not do well, and if you don’t come in the spring you will have to go away back, for you do not want to think that there is no one living out here but us. I saw nicer buildings out here than I ever saw before, and if the country was no good what would they want them for? John, if you sold everything you have and came out here you would be worth more than ever you were before, and if you can bring your team. You can get anything you want on tick, and when they do that with strangers they are not afraid they can’t make enough to pay for it. I saw as nice wheat as 1 ever saw in my life, and,if they could not grow grain what would the flour mill be for, and it cost $20,000.” ‘Now this was what Mr. Thomas Fitzpatrick, of Yorkton, Assiniboia, ‘Western Canada, wrote to a friend.
