For eight years I had female trouble, falling of the womb and other complications. During that timeI was more or less of an invalid and not much good for anything, until one day I found a book in my hall telling of the cures you could perform. I became interested ; I bought a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- pound and was helped; I continued its use and in seven months was cured, and since that time I have had perfect health. Thanks, dear Mrs. Pinkham again, for the health I now enjoy.”— Mrs. Jenntz O'DONNELL, 278 East 31st St., Chicago, Ill. — $5000 forfelt if above testimonial is not genuine.

" Write to-day. JOHN A. SALZER SEED CO., La Crosse, Wis. FOUGHT IN SOUTH AFRICA. Story of Three Swedes Who Escaped From the British. Karl Hultin, Hjalmar P. Janek and Charles Oscar Johannsen, Swedes, who have lived in South Africa for eleven years, are now with friends in this city, says the New York Journal of last Wed- nesday. The British have a price on each of their heads—$1,000, dead or alive. Hultin related some of his adventures during an hour’s talk with a Journal reporter. He said: “I suppose the British authorities are stil! puzzled as to how we made’ our escape. Janck and Johannsen were the heroes. We were serving in the Scan- dinavian corps with Cronje’s army, and were captured at Magersfoneein on Dec. 11, 1901. “The corps occupied one of the most exposed positions that day, having nine killed and twenty-six wounded out of fifty-two engaged. Janck received a wound in the head, which stunned him, but did no serious damage. The bullet plowed through his scalp, leaving a jag- ged scar. , “The two were taken to Durban to the trasport Manila, and the first night that vessel lay in Simon’s bay—I should men- tion that I was with them—we jumped overboard. They turned searchlights on me and lowered a boat, firing all the time, but I wasn’t hit. My boyhood sports proved my saving, for I swam about three miles on a detour, and reached land. The boat’s crew gave up the chase and reported me drowned. “Then I tramped for weeks, 600 miles inland, received kind treatment all the way from sympathizers, and finally reached my commando. Janck and Johannsen, with John An- dersen, Paron Hedge-Fagershold, fel- lows named Warner and Strnberg, all Scandinavians, were imprisoned at Simonstown, at the water’s edge. Above the Boer prison camp was 4 masked battery, on one side the British, and all sides a barbed wire fence, with sentinels every few feet. Escape seemed to them impossible, but they got together one night and de- cided to dig a tunnel that would carry them under the fence, and enable them to emerge in the bushes outside. They began inside a certain tent and dug straight down for seven feet, then start- ed off horizontall, Janck being the smallest went ahead using a long knife that had been smug- gled by friends. He began to make a hole about four feet in diameter and there was no diffi- culty at first. When one got tired another took his place, two keeping watch all the time. To prevent detec- tion the men above would pull a string attached to the arm of the man below and by fixed signals would commmuni- cate all danger. For the first week things went well. The sand was loaded in a soap box that had a rope to it and those on the sur- face would dump the dirt in the tent. At night the boys would go in, and load up pockets and stockings and deftly scatter the sand outside. It was soon dry and loked like the other sand. The boys trooped in and out frequently, but did not excite the suspicion of the En- glish soldiers. Once every day they had to take down all tents, and that was the chief danger. The hole was consealed by a blanket covered with sand and frequently the officer on watch almost stepped in. Of- ten he sat down on the box over it and chatted with the fellows. 2 This work continued for five weeks, and the boys were almost at liberty when some traitor in camp told the com- mandant of their plans. Janck and Johannsen were separated from the other prisoners. One morning when the prisoners were all taken to bathe, Janck dropped in to a hole and pulled the sand over him so only his nose was exposed. He remained there for two hours, then emerged unseen and made his way to the railway station. He walked through the station and on to the sea, boarding an east coast ship. 'Jchansen escaped two days later by first getting out of the enclosure, then swimming to a Norwegian bark by night. We all met at Delogoa Bay, but did not recognize each other until we reach- ed Pretoria, for being detected. We were all playing the role of nodescripts in sympathy with the British. I suppose the signs are still up at Delagoa Bay and Simonstown, off-ring £200 each for our capture, dead or alive. A Noted Mathematician. Prof. Cato Maxmilian Guldberg, who has held the chair of applied mathemat- ics at the University of Christiania since 1869, died recently at the age of sixty- five. He distinguished himself in math- emtics while still in the university, and spent two years in France and Germany in the study of mathematics, with spe- cial reference to mechanics and chem- istry. In 1864, with Prof, Waage, he published a work in which, for the first time the mechanics of chemical force were mathematically treated. Prof. Guldberg compiled several text books for schools and universities, but his greater works were devoted to the mole- cular theory in physics. pial Sa Sea st i Will Try Again. A new Swedisa-Norwegian union com- mission has been selected to consider the Norwegian demand for a separate consular service. It is composed of four members, and will meet alternately in B | Christiania and Stockholm. The Swed- ish members are Hr. Bildt, envoy to Italy, and Consul Ameen, at Barcelona; the Norwegian members, Consul Gen- eral Christophersen and Dr. Sigrud Ib- sen. SE ee Sverdrup vs. Bjornson. Bjornson’s attorneys have suggested that the legal strife between Bjornsoa and the children vf the late Johan Sver- Arup be settled bv private arbjtration; but the Sverdrup family will not con- sent, as they say the dispute is too im- portant in charecter to be disposed of in this manner. At a preliminary hear- ing at Gausdal, on Jan. 6, none of the contending parties were present: The case was referred to the courts. In Far Northland. MAY GET BIG PRIZE. Movement in Favor of P. A. Arnold- son of Swedish Riksdag. A strong movement in favor of awarding the Nobel peace prize to 1902 to P. A. Arnoldson, a member of the Swedish riksdag, is growing in Norway. Verdens Gang is agitating the proposi- tion with its accustomed enthusiasm. . It recalls the stormy days of 1895, when a clash between Sweden and Nor- way was more than imminent. P. A. Arnoldson issued a flaming pamphlet, in which he asserted for Norway the un- questiored right to govern itself. The storm of disapproval was so great on all sides that Arnoldson seemed to stand alone in Sweden. The demand that the Norwegian racket be stopped and the question settled by force of arms was well-nigh general in Sweden, yet Ar- noldson’s voice, counseling peace and justice to-Norway was the loudest. The national hatred grew stronger and stronger on both sides of Kjoeten, but Arnoldson took every opportunity to display his friendship for the Norwe- gians. He encouraged them and over- came their enemies. It is as much to his determined labors as to any other force that the present friendly feeling is due. Still, it is not only in this particular matter that he has distinguished him- self as a friend of peace. It was he who founded the Swedish peace society, who made the neutrality motion in the riksdag, and who took an active part in the arbitration movement in 1890. For thirty years he has been an active champion of peace, as a speaker, news- paper man and author. “Norway,” says Verdens Gang, “has an old debt to pay in this matter.” It may be remembered that the Nobel peace prize is awarded on the recom- mendation pt the Norwegian storthing. HOME RULE FOR ICELAND. King Christian Disposed to Grant More Than Is Asked. Iceland, the bleak and rugged island in the arctic seas,-will soon enjoy the blessings of home rule. King Christian is disposed to grant the sturdy Icelandic people even more than they ask in the way of home government. In a recent message to the Icelanders, he proposes that Iceland may be represented at Co- penhagen by a minister familiar with the language, and who shall attend the sessions of the altbing, or, if the people choose, they may elect that the minis- ter shall remain in Reykjavik all the time. This message will be considered at a special session of the althing on July 26. The people of Iceland have been agi- tating for more liberal home rule for many years. The Conservative party, which has been in power in Denmark for such a long period, ignored all peti- tions. The new Liberal government has proved itself much more considerate. The Icelanders would, doubtless, be gratefu! for any favors extended to them; hence, to be granted more than they asked will doubtless bring joy to the whole island. It is believed that the reform granted to Iceland is only the opening for fur- they home rule measures which the pe9- ple crave, and are highly qualified to carty out. SHADOW OF SADNESS. Upon King Christian’s Closing Days in West Indies Deal, ‘The cession of the islands (the Danish West Indies) casts a shadow of sadness upon the closing days of King Chris- tian’s reign. As his rule was inaugu- rated with a cession of a part of the Danish dominions to Prussia and Aus- trie it ends with another alienation of Danish soil. But, as the first cession was the result of a policy forced upon the king by a popular clamor, against his better judgment, so, in consenting to the sale of the West Indian islands, the king reluctantly bows to the will of the peeple, as represented by his minis- ters and the parliament. If the uncon- ditional transfer is a }lot upon his reign, the responsibilty rests, not upon the vererable king, but-upon the peo- ple. The king, and those agreeing with him in this matter, have at least one consolation. That, with the Stars and Stripes, will come better days for the islanders, who have been loyal to old Dannebrog for more than two centuries. Svea, Nora and Danin. A review of the Scandinavian novels in the Edinburg Review, which is said to show deep familiarity with modern Scandinavian literature, speaks very highly of Henrik Pontopidan’s “Muld,” and declares that it bears comparison with the work of Tolstoy and Turgen- lew. Fiskum church, near Drammen, Nor- way, was destroyed by fire Sunday morning, Jan. 12, just before the morn- ing services. It is possible that the old church, which dates from the Middle Ages and is still in a fine state of pre- servation, may be restored and used for religious services again. Gauken Singing society of Nasset, Ia., has applied for membership in the Northwestern Scandinavian Singers’ association. It was organized in 1900, and has eleven active and fifteen asso- ciate members. Martin Woldum is pres- ident and musical director; vice president; Olaf Kallevang, secreta- ry, and O. J. Berg, treasurer. A Nobel family in Hungary has made a demand upon the executors of Dr. Af- fred Nobel’s will for a sum of 20,000,000 krener. They are descendants of Isak Nobel, whose brother, Herman, they al- lege, was the grandfather of Dr. Nobel. It is well known that Dr. Nobel’s grand- father was Immanuel Nobel, a well known surgeon in the Swedish army un- der Gustaf III. The Swedish riksdak has voted 50,000,- 000 kroner for the military and defens- es. No loan will be sought, but the money will be raised b ytaxation, but in such a form as to not prove more bur- densome than necessary. The work of providing Mew arms was begun five years ago, and will be continued until the whole army has been equipped with new weapons and reorganized. A demand comes from several parts of Norway that Premier Steen be dis- placed by a more energetic and re- sourceful deader. The liberal party will use its prestige and influence if some- thing is not done is the argument, N. Vick, ! Houses and Offices Too Hot. To begin with, we keep our houses and business offices too hot. Not one home or office in a thousand is kept at a sensible temperature. We sit in the high temperature, and then the mo- ment we stir out we are chilled and get cold. ‘We are so sensitive to cold, thanks to artificial conditions, that we dress too warmly, pamper our bodies. In or- der, as we think, to be comfortable out of doors, we pile on blankets and thick clothing, where the rooms are so warm that gauze pjamas would be the only appropriate wear. We get overheated, perspire, make ourselves as sensitive as hot-house plants, and, when we do go out of doors, after smothering ourselves in outside wraps, we suffer horribly from cold. Of course, we do. If we could get used to a cold, bracing tem- perature in the house, the outdoor air would have no terror for us. There would be no chill, no gooseflesh, no tak- ing cold, and we wouldn’t need to be swathed like Egyptian mummies. Watch the Humorist. “The features of the human face,’ said Mark Twain, the other day, “can readily be compelled into a kaleidoscope of contortions, rurning the gamut from the expression of intense delight to the expression of excrutiating agony. You will never wholly realize this, however, until you have the opportunity of watching a humorist in the throes of turning out a ‘side-splitter.’”—New York Times. Business. “So you won't let me play ‘Hamlet?’” said Mr. Stormington Barnes. “Emphatically, no!” answered the manager. “You have no respect for the chara-- ter of the great Dane?” “Now, my dear Storm!” was the soothing rejoinder, “‘what does the pub- lic care about great Danes? What they want is the bloochounds in ‘Uncle Tom‘s Cabin.’ ""—Washington Star. : A Cinch, Casey—When did you get th’ face? Dooley—Lasht noight. Casey—And pwhere?

Getting Even With Him. “A Long Island man has been mar- ried twice, and the same Lothario has eloped with each of his wives.” “What will he do now?” “If I was in his place, I’d'fool the fel- low by not marrying again.’’—Cleveland Plaindealer.
