REMARKABLE (GASE of Mrs. HAM seclares Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound Saved Her Life and Sanity. Shamrock, Mo.— “I feel it my duty to tell the public the condition of my GRG0 health before using your medicine. Ihad pains in both sides, backaches and beary ing down pains, was short of memory, nervous, impatient, passed sleepless nights, and had neither strength nor energy. There was always a fear and dread in my mind, I had cold, nervous, weak spells, hot flashes over my body. I had a place in my right side that was so sore that I could hardly bear the weight of my clothes. I tried medicines end doctors, but they did me little good, and I never expected to get out again. I got Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound end Blood Purifier, and I cer- tainly would have been in grave orin an esylum if your medicines had not saved me. But now I can work all day, sleep well at night, eat anything I want, have no hot fleshes or weak, nervous spells. All pains, aches, fears and dreads are gone, my house, children and husband ere no longer neglected, as I am almost entirely free of the bad symptoms I had before taking your remedies, and all is pleasure and happiness in my home.”’— Mrs. Josie Hay, R.

Librarian Joseph L, Peacock, of the Westerly Memorial and Library asso- ciation, since he assumed the duties of the office, has been given an op- portunity to make a study of library work that is sure to be advantageous to the patrons of the local free library, both in the selection of books, their general arrdngement and all that per- tains to library efficiency.

Titles For ths Crown Prince, The German crown prince, who has entered on his thirty-fourth year is known In England by a title to which South Germans object, or wsed to object when they had time. He is strictly “Kronprinz _ des deutschen Reiches.” That is his official _style, corresponding to his father's title of “Deutscher Kaiser.” Of course the Englisk of it is either “crown prince of the German empire” or “German prince . imperial” = “German crown prince,” misses just the essential part of it, and might denote the son and heir of a king of Germany.
