é BREAKS THE RECORD A TWENTIETH { OENTURY FLYER IN THE MEDICAL FIELD. Rheumatism Rapidly and Radically Cured. Quick Work of a Famous Remedy. Convenience, comfort, safety, speed are demanded by the traveling public in our rapid century and the keenest intellects constantly at work on these problems are making wonderful progress in the construction of the steamship and the locomotive. Like results are sought in medicines and Dr. Williams’.Pink Pills for Pale People are astonishing the world by the triumphs they are winning in the rapid cure of obstinate maladies, such as rheumatism. With speed they combine convenience, perfect safety {and cheap- ness. Here is fresh proof of their concen- trated virtues: Mrs. Margaret Gantz, of No. 1527 Bodeman street, Burlington, Towa, is an industrious German woman, who about two and a half years ago found herself in danger of losing her power to work altogether., She says : “I got rheumatism which made my knees and elbows very stiff and painfui. I had difficulty in raising my arms and I could hardly lift my feet over my doorstep. I ought to have gone to bed, but I eouldn’t afford to do that, soI forced myself to work in spite of the pain and stiffness. After suffering for about six months, I was told about Dr. Wil- liams’ Pink Pills for Pale People by a friend, who said she had been cured by them. On her advice, I bought one box and in two weeks after I began to use them I was well and I have had nonced to use them now for nearly two years. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are a good med- icine and if I ever have rheumatism again I will get a box right away. I have told many friends what they did for me and I am glad to have everybody know.’ This is valuable news to all who suf- ‘er from rheumatism. These pills have also cured stubborn cases of locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis, St. Vitus’ dance, ica, neuralgia, nervous headache, palpitation of the heart and all forms of weakness in male or female. They are sold by all druggists, or will be sent directly from the Dr. Wil- liams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N.Y., on receipt of the price, fifty cents per box; six boxes for two dollars and a halé. Look for the full name on every box. Only One Kaiser. An excited man in a Berlin beer gar- den, after discussing some august re- mark, said aloud: “The kaiser talks a lot of nonsense.” In a moment the blasphemer was arrested by an official who happened to be present. The of- fense was a ten-syllable one, with heavy penalties attaching to each. “It is all a mistake,” whined the terror- smitten wretch. ‘T was speaking of the Austrian kaiser.’ “That won’t do, fellow,” thundered the official. “I maintain your arrest. rybody knows there is only one r who talks a lot of nonsense.”— Grand Rapids Herald.

Union day, Nov. 4, the anniversary of the formal union between Sweden and Norway, was more generally ob- served than ever before in the two countries, and the friends of the union see in the numerous celebrations and festivities in which Swedes and Nor- wegians joined with the greatest friendliness an augury of continued confidence and trust in each other. It is now ninety years since the two countries, after being arrayed in bat- tle line against each other for several months and fighting a few sharp skir- mishes, agreed to unite under one king, each country, however, to retain its own parliament, military organiza- tion, flag, coinage, etc. There has been much friction between the two peo- ple, who, after all, are geographically and ethnologically one people, and they seemed on the verge of a com- plete rupture several times, but the crises have been passed and in the past few years the relations have been extremely cordial in certain directions. An association of unionists known as “Broderfolknes Vel” has labored assid- uously in various ways to reconcile animosities, remove prejudices and establish brotherly regard and consid- eration. This organization made the most of the ninetieth anniversary and held elaborate festivities in Stockholm and Christiania. day was also celebrated by the Norwe- gian society, by the students and by the workingmen’s unions. At the union fest Lieut. Gen. Thaulow pro- posed the toast to King Oscar. A tel- egram from his majesty was read. Oth- er telegrams were received from branches of the union in Copenhagen and in various parts of Sweden. Ad- dresses were made by Prof. Jaeger, Editor Oppedal, while C. F. Lundquist, the famous Swedish opera singer, sang Swedish and Norwegian songs. In Stockholm the speakers were Prof. Chronquist, who proposed the royal toast; C. Staaf, a member of the Swedish riksdag; Hr. Lagerkrantz, Capt. Wulff and others. naes, the Norwegian composer, was present. The retirement of Hr. Lagerheim from the Swedish ministry is believed by some to be unfavorable to the ne- gotiations for a separations of the joint consular service, which are now pending and in which Hr. Lagerheim has taken an active part, but it is hardly likely that the ministry will de- part from a program to which it is practically committed. SELLS RARE TREASURES. King George of Greece Angers Danes by Greed for Gold. King George of Greece is thrifty to a degree rarely met with in common people, let alone monarchs, but that he would send away the rare treasures of Denmark for mere gold, of which he already has an abundance, comes as a shock to the Danes. King George is accused of having disposed of two priceless Gobelins from Bernstorff palace to a Parisian dealer in antiquities, who in turn has sold the one to Baron Rothschild and the other to an English agent who is said to be in the pay of Mr. Morgan, who, as is well known, has men whose sole duty it is to look for valuable ob- jects of art for the American finan- cier’s wonderful collection. The Bernstorffs had from time to time disposed of .nany valuable ob- jects to dealers, so when the king bought the palace, intending to abdi- eate in favor of his eldest son, they felt sure that no more treasures of art would go out of the country. Here is where they were mistaken, however, for the king almost immedi- ately sold a part of the large palace for about as much as he had paid for the whole, and then the valuable roco- co furniture went piece by piece to dealers, in Paris. The Danish press protested, but nothing could be done and the king went on selling. Some time ago a visitor visited the famous Gobelins and the whole Dan- | ish people nearly went into spasms of fury when it was found out that King George had sold them in Paris for $250,000. A Danish brewer of immense wealth has tried to induce Baron Rothschild to sell him one Gobelin in his posses- sion at his own price, as the brewer would like to present it to the Danish national museum, but the baron is said to have refused, and if Mr. Morgan has really got hold of the other the Danish museum will probably have to do with- out the Gobelins. Will Help the Singers. Crown Prince Gustaf has consented to act as patron for the singers of Stockholm in their movement to raise funds for a concert hall in that city. All the singing societies and musical organizations of the city will take a hand in the work. Skis Aquatiques. Water skis have recently been in- vented. They do not come from Nor- way, however, but are the creation of an Italian engineer, who calls hi unique device for walking on the wa- ter hydroskis, and a French paper calls them skis aquatiques. Ancient Castle Sold. The old and historic castle of Foge!l- vik, Sweden, has been sold by the owner, Baron Roab, to R. Nelson of Moholm. The reputed price is 500,000 kroner. In Far Northland.

Antiquarians who have studied the remains of the vessel found near Sla- gen, Norway, have come to the con- clusion that it was the pleasure boat of some high born dame rather than a real viking ship. The wonder of the discovery is that it shows that a condition of luxury ex- isted among the great sea rovers of which no idea had been previously en- tertained. The woodwork of the rails and prows is beautifully carved and ornamented, and the remains of some splendidly woven tapestries—by many said to be equal to those of Bayeux— show that when the owner of this barge went sailing it was with a state and splendor only equaled by that of some king’s favorite on warmer seas. The remains of a carved sleigh, a rich- ly ornamented four-wheeled carriage, a loom and many artistic implements were also found in the tumulus which so long concealed this ancient treasure of the viking days. LIKE THE ARK. Danish Engineer Copies Noah’s Big Boat With Success. M. Vogt, an enterprising Danish en- gineer, has recently completed a vessel patterned after Noah’s ark. Taking the descriptions furnished by Bible narratives and the illustrations in an- cient coins, particularly the Apamean coin of 300 B. C., he constructed a xessel about 30 feet long and about 200 tons burden. It is about one-tenth the actual size of Noah's vessel. The ark, with a number of univer- sity professors, engineers, government officials and journalists on board, as well as her designer, M. Vogt, behaved splendidly in the waters of the sound, skimming gracefully over the waves, and veering with the changing winds with an ease as though worked by a propeller. The ark is declared by marine ex- perts to be not only the simplest kind of vessel possible, but also a master- | piece of shipbuilding,. upon which the latest developments of the craft could devise no improvement. It has been decided’ by the munici- pality to invite the king to make a trip on the new Noah’s ark. Daring Voyage. Capt. Brude has arrived at St. Johns, Newfoundland, with his lifeboat “Uread” (Unafraid), in which he sail- ed from Aalesund, Norway, on Aug. 7. The boat is entered for the lifeboat prize at St. Louis and the voyage across the Atlantic was undertaken for the purpose of proving the vessel’s seaworthiness. It encountered several hard storms in its ten weeks on the Atlantic, lost masts, sails, ete., but ar- rived at St. Johns in excellent condi- tion. Capt. Brude and his crew are in good health. The boat is only 18 feet long, has a beam of 8 feet and weighs twelve and one-half tons. Get American Capital. The Spitzbergen Coal company of Throndhjem, Norway, has succeeded in making arrangements with Ameri- can capital for developing the immense coal fields on the Arctic islands. The Americans will furnish 350,000 kroner, but the company will remain in the hands of the present stockholders and under Norwegian jurisdiction. The coal has’ been extensively used on the Roeros railway and has been found to answer every requirement. As the mines are favorably located within half a mile of a splendid deep harbor, their development will be rapidly car- ried on. Another World’s Fair. Sweden’s export association has made a request of the government for an appropriation of 50,000 kroner for a Swedish display at the world’s fair in Liege in 1905. Sweden will not be officially represented at the fair, but the country has been allotted 1,187 square meters in the industrial hall. Much pressure is being brought to bear on the government for an appro- priation. Make Use of Prisoners. The Swedish government proposes a plan for the manufacture, as far as possible, of all minor articles for the army, navy, government railways, the mail service and other departments by prisoners in the vardious penal insti- tutions. The proposition will be given careful attention as it is expected to save considerable money. A Generous Will. ‘The late August Rohss, a wealthy wholesaler of Gothenburg, left in lega- cies to various institutions the sum of 635,000 kroner. Of the larger amounts may be mentioned 200,000 kroner to Gottenburg’s museum and 50,000 kron- er each to the public library, the com- mercial schools, children’s hospital and scientific society. Famine in Westerbotten. Reports from Umea, the seat of gov- ernment in the province of Wester- botten, Sweden, state that a famine actually exists in certain parishes and that the arcity of food is greater than during the severe famine of 1902, when extensive relief measures were necessary. / “Didnt that burglar take your breath, away?” “No, he left that. It was about the only thing he didn’t take. Cleveland Plain Dealer. A LT. Tee eee BROUGHT GOOD LUCK, King of the Cotton Pit Owned “Nigger.” Daniel J. Sully was very fond of a black cat when he was king of the cot- ton pit. The particular cat was known as “Nig,” and it was her duty to see to it that none of the records belong- ing to exchange members who had of- fices in the building should be muti- lated by mice. In her spare moments. she used to visit the floor of the ex- change, and her presence was always hailed as a sign of good luck by the bulls, who would bid the market up with great vigor whenever Nig came up to be petted and to prrr. Nig vis- ited the floor only at rare intervals after the Sully failure, and now Nig is dead. She died last week. Some say Sully’s failure not only broke him, but also the heart of the cat.—New York Times. A NOVEL THEATER. Has a Stage and Seats Hewn out of Rock. Probably the most novel theater in the world is that which was recently opened at Thale, in Germany. The theater is on the summit of a moun- tain, and is surrounded on all sides by steep rocks. The seats for the audi- ence are hewn out of the rock and ac- commodate 1,000 persons, and the stage, which is also hewn out of the rock, is eighty feet long by five feet wide. No artificial scenery is used, but the background is formed by tke dense forest and by the outlines of the mountains in the distance. The dressing room for the actors is close at hand in the forest, but completely hidden from the audience. The thea- ter is fully protected from the wind, and its acoustic properties are so ex- cellent that every word is heard.—Chi- cago Journal. Verdict in Rhyme. “Juries sometimes, in making their verdict, perpetuate villainous verse,” says Representative Smith of Pennsyl- vania. “I am not against verse-mak- ing; in fact, I rather enjoy reading po- etry, but a deadline should be drawn on rendering a verdict in rhyme. “In a breach of promise suit in my state the evidence showed conclusive- ly that the defendant had proved faith- less to a fair lady by the name of Wright. The jury returned the ver- dict: “The plaintiff in this case is Wright, And well her case has won. One thousand dollars for the slight Must come from Samuel Dunn.’” —Chicago Journal. ‘0 CURE A COLD IN ONE DAY Take Laxative Bromo Quinine Tablets. All drug- dats refund the money if it fails to cure.

Miss Nettie Blackmore, Minneapolis, tells how any young woman may be per- manently cured of monthly pains by taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. “Youna Women:—I had frequent headaches of a severe nature. dark spots before my eyes, and at my menstrual periods I suffere untold agony. A member of the lodge advised me to try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, but I only scorned good advice and felt that my case was hopeless, but she kept at me until I bought a bottle and started taking it. I soon had the best reason in the world to change my opinion of the medicine, as each day my health improved, and finally I was entirely without pain at my menstruation periods. Iam most grateful,”"—Nerms Brackmore, 28 Central Ave., Minneapolis. Minn. Painful Periods are quickly and permanently overcome by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.
