The Modesty of Women
Naturally makes thorn shrink from the
Indelicate questions, tho obnoxious ex
aminations, and unpleasant local treat
ments, which some physicians consider
essential in tho treatment of diseases of
women. Yet, if help can be had, it is
better to submit to this ordeal than let
'the disease grow and spread. The trouble
is that so often the woman undergoes all
the annoyance and shame for nothing.
ThonsandsNd women who have been
cured byDr. rHerce’s Favorite Prescrip
tion writh. in imm-eclation of the cure
which dis{Vfc^5sS^th the examinations
.and local trcatment^There is no other
itnedirinc sure and safe for riclicatq
women as "Favorite Prescription.’’ It
cures dobiIitating"drains. Irregularity and
femule weakness. It always helps. It
almost always cures. It is strictly non
alcoholic, non - secret, all its ingredients
being printed on its bottle-wrapper; con
tains no deleterious or habit-forming
drugs, and every native medicinal root
entering into its composition has the full
endorsement of those most eminent in the
several schools bf medical practice. Some
of these numerous and strongest of pro
fessional endorsements of its ingredients,
will be found in a pamphlet wrapped
around the bottle, also in a booklet mailed
Jrcc on request, by Dr. R. V. Pierce, of
Buffalo, N. Y. These professional en
dorsements should have far more weight
than any amount of the ordinary lay, or
uon-professional testimonials.
The most intelligent women now-a-days
irvibtt on knowing what they take as ined
Icino instead of opening their mouths like
a lot of young birds and gulping down
whatever is ottered them. "Favorite Pre
scription” is of KNOWN COMPOSITION. It
makes weak women strong and sick
women well.

Evil of Too Much Reading.
A bookish man, says Dr. William
Osier, may never succeed. Deep
versed in books, he may not be able
to use his knowledge to practical ef
fect; or, more likely, his failure is
not because he lias read too much,
but observed too little.

WORK IN DREAD OF OCTOPUS.
Fishermen on Coast of Brittany Keep
Weapon Handy.
“When you go fishin’ off the rocky
i coast, of Brittany, you carry, by crinus,
j a fish ax,” said the sailor.
“What for?”
“For octopus. Octopus is terrible
! frequent on them slimy Breton sea
rocks. They drown swimmers some
times. Sometimes they seize boats
and try to climb aboard. Then you
hack off their arms with your ready
fish ax.
“I knowed a man was drowned by
an octopus off Port Manech’. He swum
out to the rocks and an octopus, three
of its feelers coiled round a ledge,
took holt of his arm with the others.
'Twan't a big octopus—body the size
of your head, feelers about a yard
long—but it done for that man. It
held him there till the tide come up
and he drowned. All the time his
wife was watchin' and shriekin' on the
lonely shore.
“Them critters is so fearless. Why,
they don't know fear. They come
right up into a boat, starin’ straight
at you with their cold eyes, an' if you
ain't got an ax or some sort of weap
on, you're done for.
“Tt’s a common thing, fishin’ off
Brittany, to hear a tap-tappin’ behind
you, and to turn and see the drab
arms of. an octopus, like a half-dozen
snakes, creepin' over the gunnel, feel
in' their way towards you. Then the
body, like a squashed and slimy foot
ball, appears. The cold, terrible eyes
fix themselves on yours.
“Well, sir, you want your fish ax
then.”
PROPER CARE OF THE WATCH.
Simple Precautions That Will Save
Paying Jewelers’ Bills.
“Why do watches get dirty?” said
the jeweler. “You'll find the answer in
your watch pocket. Turn it out.”
The patron turned out his watch
pocket, sheepishly bringing forth a
pinch of mud-colored dust, some lint

“There's the reason,” said the
jeweler. “Watches get dirty because
the pockets they are carried in are
never clean. A watch pocket, my dear
sir, should be cleaned out regularly
once a week. Observe that rule and
your watch's works will not get clog
ged up again.
“Another and a seasonable rule is
never to lay your watch down on
stone or marble. The cold deranges
the delicate works.
“Never lay your watch down, in
fact, anywhere. Hang it up on a hook,
vertically, in the same position it oc
cupies when in your pocket. Watches
are made to lie, or rather stand, in
that position only.
“Wind your watch in the morning,
never at night.”
Snapdragon Seed Pods.
The.antirrhinum, or snapdragon, is
one of the old-fashioned garden flow
efs known to every one. Although it
Is a visitor from southern Europe it
has been here so long that it has be
come naturalized.
When we say “lion's mouth,” “frog’s
mouth,” “calf's' mouth,” “rabbit’s
mouth,” we mean snapdragon, all
these names being suggested by its
grotesque, masklike corolla. But there
is something still more grotesque if
we will wait till the seed time and
gather the dried, brown skeleton of
the seed pod. Look at them sideways,
under a bright lamplight if possible,
and you will find they have quite
a resemblance to a rhinoceros.
Remove the calyx and the little
horns on the nose, and look at them
from the front, and they have a still
more striking resemblance to human
skulls, and by turning them about you
get all sorts of queer expressions on
the grinning mouth.—St. Nicholas
Magazine.
How to Burn Rubbish.
We had been puzzled to know how
to dispose of waste paper and other
rubbish when there was no fire in the
range. A piece of chicken wire netting
five feet long and three feet wide
was rolled to form a hollow cylinder.
An old tin dish pan was fastened to
the bottom with some bits of wire
and our “crematory” was complete.
Into this wire basket we dump all the
rubbish and when we want to burn it
a lighted match is pushed through the
netting and another old pan is turned
over the top of the basket. There is no
danger of fire from flying bits of burn
ing paper. Being light, the basket is
easily carried to any part of the yard
where one wishes to have the bonfire.
—Good Housekeeping.
Cigars and Open Air.
Cigars in good condition when sold
aje sometimes complained of after
ward. In many cases they have de
teriorated owing to the customers’
own neglect. Tobacconists should
warn buyers of boxes of cigars that
fresh air is as good for cigars as it is
for the mortals who are soothed by
their fragrance, and the connoisseur
will at regular intervals let the box
lie open for a space.—Tobacco Week
ly Journal.
Slighted.
“I think,” said Mrs. Cumrox, com
pressing her lips, “that we will get an
other physician."
"The bill our doctor just sent in was
very reasonable,” ventured her hus
band.
“That’s the point. It was so small
as to indicate not only a low esti
mate of the value of our health, but
also an utter disregard of our social
and financial importance.”
Badly Mixed Up
Abraham Brown, of Winterton, N.
V., had a very remarkable experience;
he says: “Doctors got badly mixed up
over me: one said heart disease: two
called it kidney trouble; the fourth,
blood poison, and the fifth stomach and
liver trouble: but none of them helped
me; so my wife advised trying Electric
Bitters, which are restoring me to per
fect health. One bottle did me more
good than all the live doctors pre
scribed.” Guaranteed to cure blood
