Mrs. Annie McKay, Chaplain Sons of

Cured of Severe Female Troubles by Lydia
E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.
“ Dear Mrs. Pinkham : — Being a mother of five children I
have had experience with the general troubles of my sex. I was
lacerated when one of my children was born and from that hour I
date all my afflictions. I found that within a few months my health
was impaired, I had female weakness and serious inflammation and
frequent flooding. I became weak and dizzy but kept on my feet,
dragging through my work without life or pleasure. A neighbor
who had been helped by taking Lydia E. Pinkliam’s Vegetable
Compound insisted that I take at least one bottle. I did so and
felt so much better that I kept on the treatment. For seven months
I used the Compound faithfully and gladly do I say it, health and
strength are mine once more. I know how to value it now when it
was so nearly lost, and I appreciate how great a debt I owe you.
The few dollars I spent for the medicine cannot begin to pay what it
was worth to me. Yours very truly, Mrs. Anna McKay, Chaplain
Sons of Temperance.”

Ills Majesty Didn't Dare to Make
Uood—The Reported Tiff Between
KiUvnril and I.ord Salisbury on
Account of 1-ntter’s Refusal to
Recommend n Peerage.
London, .Tune 1.—An incident which
Is causing considerable commotion in
royal circles is the disagreement be
tween King Edward and the duchess
of Buccleuch, a member of the old
style, exclusive aristocracy, who has
not countenaced the so-called “smart
set.” The king was to dine with the
duke and duchess of Buccleuch, and in
timated his desire that a lady of his
surrounding be invited. This is usual
ly tantamount to a command, but the
DUCHESS OF BUCCLEUGH.
duchess of Buecleuch, nothing- daunt
ed, refused point blank to ask the
king’s friend to make one of the
dinner party. His majesty was furi
ous, and threatened to cancel his
promise to dine with the Buccleuchs,
whereat the duchess of Buccleuch re
torted that she was quite willing to
send her resignation, as mistress of
the robes, to Queen Alexandra. Later
in the day the king thought better
of it, informed the Buccleuchs that
he accepted the exclusion of his fa
vorite and forbade the duchess to
resign.
Kina niul Premier nt Outs.
Those in touch with royal circles
are busy gossiping about the re
ported tiff between Lord Salisbury
and King Edward, which is said to
have arisen on account of the king's
demand that the premier recommend
Sir Ernest Cassell for a peerage.
Last fall the same request met with
a refusal. This year it was again
urged by the king, on the ground
of Sir Ernest’s munificent gift of
£200,000 toward the cure of consump
tion. The premier absolutely refused
to countenance the suggestion, and
at the end of a stormy interview,
which occurred the day the state din
ner was held at Buckingham palace,
Lord Salisbury remarked: “Well, sir,
1 suppose I had better leave my place
at to-night’s banquet vacant?” to
which the king is said to have re
plied: “Yes, I think you had,” and
stalked out of the room. Since then,
according to court gossip, King Ed
ward and his aged prime minister
have scarcely been on speaking
terms.
Many members of the nobility, es
pecially old, country families, make
no secret of their disapproval of va
rious events in the king’s social life.

TALK ABOUT THE WEATHER.
Some Popular Error* u to Meteor*
o I |>K > Are Corrected by a Well
Known Scientist.
In a recent paper sent to the Amer
ican Geographical society Prof. Gan
nett, of the United States geological
survey, treats of a number of popu
lar errors in meteorology and geog
raphy. A few of his points are sum
marized in what follows:
Forests and llainfall.—An example
of the persistence of errors is the
idea that the presence or absence of
forests has an influence on the
amount of rainfall. Some keen ob
servers long ago detected the fact
that forested regions enjoyed a heav
ier rainfall than those not forested,
and jumped to the conclusion that
rainfall was produced by forests, and
that the removal of forests dimin
ished the rainfall. Looking over the
earth he found many treeless desert
regions and forthwith instanced them
as frightful examples of man’s waste
fulness. Syria, northern Africa, parts
of Italy, are often quoted as illustra
tions of man’s destruction of climate.
In reply, man can certainly plead not
guilty. The geography of this Medi
terranean region, the configuration
of land and water, and the direction
of the prevailing winds, are such as
to give it a light rainfall—forests or
no forest. The situation is really
this. Want of rain prevents the
growth of trees; want of trees does
not prevent rain.
Forests and Floods.—Another per
sistent error is the belief that floods
in our rivers are more frequent than
formerly because of the cutting down
of forests in their drainage basins.
It is probable that the clearing of
land by cutting away forests and un
dergrowth does change the regimen
of streams, increasing their flood
height and diminishing the flow at
low stages. In other words, water
probably runs off or evapora-tes more
rapidly from bare ground than from
ground covered with forests. Put
where the forests are cut away the
ground is seldom left bare; it is cul
tivated or quickly becomes covered
with bushes which hold the water
quite as effectively as forests. The
main fact is, however, that the floods
in our rivers are no greater or more
frequent now than in the past.
Climates and Ocean Currents.—The
well-known mild climate of the north
west coast of America is commonly
attributed to the Japan current. The
gulf stream is supposed to have the
same influence on the western coasts
of Europe, etc. But can it be sup
posed that the Japan current, how
ever warm it may be when it leaves
the tropics, retains any appreciable
excess of heat after a journey of 6,000
miles in northern latitudes? As a
matter of fact, no trace of this cur
rent reaches the shores of North
America. In the north Atlantic the
condition is much the same. The gulf
stream disappears as a current long
before the British isles are reached.
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
“A wig cun make the greatest dif
ference in a man’s appearance,” said
the hotel clerk. “I never realized this
fully until this morning, when the
third floor chambermaid announced
that two men were occupying room
318, and she was sure that only one man
was registered. She said this had beeD
going on for a week or more. I looked
up the register, and found that room
318 was assigned to one man, and set
out to investigate. The chambermaid
said she had on several occasions seen
a baldheaded man in dressing gown
going and comingfrom the room to the
bath, and then had noticed another
man with curly black hair leave the
room a few minutes later. As delicately
as I could I broached the matter to the
fellow who I remembered had regis
tered—the one with the curly black
hair—and he insisted upon explaining
how the misapprehension had occurred
by removing his wig. Be wasn’t at all
sensitive about it.”—Philadelphia Rec
ord.

KiVerytliiuK,
When the young man from Florida came
to live in Mew York he woke up one morn
ing last winter ami, going to tiie window,
he looked out on wnat was to him a novel
scene. It was a snowstorm, the first he
had ever seen.
•Jumping into his clothes, he ran into the
street. lie stooped and gathered handfuls
of snow and tnrew them in the air; he
jumped into a drift and sent it flying with
his feet; he finally lay down and rolled in
it—all this time shouting and laughing at
the top of his voice.
One of the crowd which had gathered to
watch his antics went up to him and told
him how his mother used to cure fits and
Volunteered to try it on him.
“I haven’t any,” the young man said.
“What’s the matter with you, then?”
“Why, don’t you see the snow?”
“Yes, I see it. What of it? I have seen
it before.”
“Well, I haven’t,” said the Florida young
man.
“What! You never saw snow before?”
asked the astonished questioner.
"M’ever. Seems strange to you, don’t it?”
“It beats any sapiple of verdancy I ever
ran across.”
“Oh, I don’t know,” mused the Florida
cracker, according to the New York Mail
and Express. "Did you ever see an alligator
eating a black boy? No? Well, you are
not so many, after all. I have seen it many
times.” And. throwing a handful of snow
down his shirt collar, he pursued his joyous
gambols.

STRONG KIDNEYS
MEAN GOOD HEALTH.
There aro no diseases that more quickly and surely de,aange the entire constitution than
Kidney or Bladder trouble, and It behooves every man and woman suffering from these diseases
to have themselves cured at once. The body defends upon the Kidneys to throw off the waste
matter of the system, and when it falls to do this the result is an interference with digestion, a
sudden stoppage of the free circulation of the blood and a serious weakening of the heart.
Also rheumatism could not exist if it were not for weak and deranged Kidneys.

STONE IN THE BLADDER.
“Mv son has suffered with stone in the
bladder eight years. I have taken him to
several watering places, also to Cincinnati,

was put under eminent physicians with no
Improvement; on the contrary, it was grad
ually getting larger, until I lost all hope of
getting him cured, when 1 was tola of
UMITH'S 81RK KIDNEY CURE.
1 bad him try it, and to my surprise he begun
to improve at once and he was cured with
