Finally a question was put to him which seemed so remote from the mat- ter in hand that he rebelled.

If it becomes known by his lodge that a certain prominent Mason of this city has recently given away one of their secrets to his wife, grave trouble awaits him. His spouse for years had been continually exhorting him to tell her just one of the secrets of the fra- ternity. But he remained inflexible. She was persistent, and he at last, with a resigned look, said that owing to her eternal pestering he would tell her just one secret twenty days from date. Bright and early on the twentieth day she asked: “Now, John, what is the secret?” With a solemn face he whispered: “H-sh!

Simple Pastoral Life There as a New. York Woman Saw It. “Yes, I’ve been to the country,” said a New York girl who keeps her eyes open. “I’ve. been to Boston. I stayed there two weeks, and my head has been in a whirl since I got back tc New York, with all the clatter and rush there is here even at this dull time. “In Boston the finest shops are filled with bareheaded women shop- pers. They’re not women of thé poorer classes, either, but well dressed matrons and stunning leoking maids. “In Boston neighbors call to one another from stoop to stoop over their after-dinner coffee. There, too, children visit from house to house for all the world as they do in coun- try towns. Neighbors borrow each other’s newspapers, to say nothing of magazines and books, and they use cne another’s telephones. They are not above taking a neighbor’s dog for an automobile ride, and the way the women take their own parcels home after a shopping bout is enough to make a New York sister’s eyes open. For all their cold culture they beat all for asking questions of strangers, quite as villagers are supposed to do. “It’s fine to go there once in a great while when one wants to re turn to simple country life, but for every day living purposes New York suits me.”—New York Sun. DANGER IN A WATERSPOUT. Passed Close to Ocean Liner, Almost Causing a Panic. Such passengers of the Koenigin Luise as had never seen a waterspout had an opportunity of looking one ever, as that vessel was nearing port, and looking it over at such close range as to cause many to shrink back in affright. } it was on Monday noon and on the outer edge of the Gulf Stream when the spout was first discovered. It was about five miles distant and broad off the starboard bow. The word went round that a waterspout was in sight, and the 500 passengers who were pre- paring for luncheon hurried on deck to see. The captain, with his chief officer, joined the fourth officer, who was keeping watch on the bridge, and narrowly watching the swirling mass, calculated that it would clear the ves- sel and that it would not be necessary to alter her course in order to avoid it. The spout rapidly drew near, and with base bubbling and frothing went swirling by a short 50 feet under the ttern, making as it passed a loud hiss- tng, which was described like that of escaping steam. Just then a rain squall came by, and after it passed the spout was seen stern, dim and shadowy, like a long waving ribbon suspended from the clouds. Captain Volger estimated the pyra- mia-shaped base to be 20 feet in diam- eter and the body about 5 feet in thickness.—New York Herald. The Child’s Mistake. She meee before. I couldn’t see her ‘ace.

Lord Templemore is not only the “father” of the House of Lords, but of the British Parliament as well. Be- tween his lordship’s debut at St. Stephen’s and that of Sir Michael Hicks-Beach, the “father” of the House of Commons, there is a gulf of upwards of two decades. Lord Tem- plemore took his seat in June, 1842, while the ex-chancellor of the exche- quer did not enter parliament until July, 1864. » Only New Mistakes Condoned.

Here it is: What is three-sevenths of chicken, two-thirds of cat and one-half of goat? “Of course you give it up. Well, the answer is Chicago. ‘Chi’ is three-sevenths of chicken; ‘ca’ is two-thirds of cat, and ‘go’ is one-half of goat. Pretty good, isn’t it?”—Phil- adelphia Press. .

Then let the melon and the rum age together, and if you are around at the cutting time of that I'll guarantee that you will be glad. But that takes some time, and you might not be around when the cutting comes off. So here’s the other way: Take your nice ripe melon, cut a plug out of it just big enough to hold all; of the neck of a pint of chamgagne. The minute you get the plug out un- cork the wine and jab it in, pack some ice around it and put it away in the cooler. In two hours serve it.”—New ¥ork Sun.

Little Errors That Are Everyone. “When Greek meets Greek, then comes the tug of war,’” said a young man. “You are wrong in that quotation,” his companion objected. ‘That is one of a number of famous sayings that are misquoted always. It is from Nathaniel Lee, and its right reading is, ‘When Greeks joined Greeks, then was the tug of war.” “Another misquotation is, ‘Its’ an ill wind that blows nobody any good.’ This is from Thomas Tasser, a six- teenth century worthy, and it should run, ‘It is an ill wind that turns none to good.’ “‘Out of sight out of mind,’ is from Lord Brooke, but is was out of mind as soon as out of sight, as Lord Brooke wrote it. “‘First in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen,’ should run, ‘First in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his fellow citizens.’ This famous sen- tence is from a resolution laid before the house of representatives in 1799 by General Richard Lee.—Chicago Journal. ‘Made. by Old Man’s Secret. Alpena, Mich., Sept. 5 (Special).— Seventy-five years of age but hale and hearty is Mr. Jerome K.

I suffered with my kidneys for a long time and suffered terribly from those Urinary Troubles that are so general among aged people. “Then I started to use Dodd’s Kid- ney Pils and eight boxes of them cured my kidneys, regulated my wa- ter and made me feel like a hearty young man.” Dodd’s Kidney Pills make the old feel young because they make sound kidneys.

A distressing case of Fibroid Tumor, which baffled the skill of Boston doctors. Mrs. Hayes, of Boston, Mass, in the following letter tells how she was cured, after everything else failed, by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. Mrs. Hayes’ First Letter Appealing to Mrs. Pinkham for Help: “Dear Mrs. Prvxnam:—I have been under Boston doctors” treat- ment for a long time without any relief. They tell me I have a fibroid tumor. I cannot sit down without great pain, and the soreness extends up my spine. I have bearing-down pains both back and front. My ab- domen is swollen, and I have had flowing spells for three years. My ap- petite isnot good. I cannot walk or be on my feet for any length of time. “The symptoms of Fibroid Tumor given in your little book ac- curately describe my case, so I write to you for advice.” —(Signed) Mrs. E. F. Hayes, 252 Dudley St., (Roxbury) Boston, Mass. Note the result of Mrs. Pinkham’s advice—al- though she advised Mrs. Hayes, of Boston, to take her medicine— which she knew would help her — her letter contained amass of additional instruc- tions as to treatment, all of which helped to bring about the happy result. _ “Dear Mrs. Pivcraw:— Sometime I wrote to you describ- ane my symptoms and asked your advice. You replied, and I followed all your directions carefully, and to-day I am a well woman. “The use of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound entirel expelled the tumor and strengthened my whole system. I can yale miles now. “Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is worth five dol- lars a drop. I advise all women who are afflicted with tumors or female trouble of any kind to give it a faithful trial.”— (Signed) Mrs. E. F. Haves, 252 Dudley St., (Roxbury) Boston, Mass. Mountains of gold could not purchase such testimony — or take the place of the health and happiness which Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound brought to Mrs. Hayes. _ Such testimony should be accepted by all women as convincing evidence that Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound stands without a peer as a remedy for all the distressing ills of women; all ovarian troubles; tumors; inflammations; ulceration, falling and dis- placements of the womb; backache; irregular, suppressed or painful menstruation. Surely the volume and character of the testimonial let- ters we are daily printing in the newspapers can leave no room for doubt. _ Mrs. Hayes at her above address will gladly answer any letters which sick women may write for fuller information about her illness. Her gratitude to Mrs. | inkham and Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is so genuine and heartfelt that she thinks no trouble is too gieat for her to take in return for her health and happiness. Truly is it said that it is Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- pound that is curing so many women, and no other medicine ; don’t for- get this when some druggist wants to sell you something else.
