STAND FOR RIGHT AGAINST ALL
TRUCKLING.
Our esteemed contemporary, The Indianapolis World, presumes in sheer sycophancy to apologize for the bold and heartless indifference which is meted to our people by the present administration. As the advocate of fair dealing, we have had occasion time and again to refer to the desperate play which is being made into the hands of the southern people. Any glaring discrimination against one class of American citizens demands a like rebuke. The World in its too much eagerness to signify its readiness to be content with the crumbs thrown from the master's table, pleads pitiously for forbearance. Some years ago this might suffice. But the World, as is addicted, takes a too narrow view of things. Like Rip Van Winkle having aroused from its too long slumber, it exclaims, "Same old calamity howl." But that old worn phrase does not suit the spirit of our time. The World is not yet awake. Unwilling to contend for a principle, unwilling to contend for right and justice and to champion the cause of a people too long neglected, it wilters and weakens and seeks to earn favor with that agency which disregards the just claims of true citizenship. It is an easy thing to use slur which is sometimes a cruel weapon, but that is no evidence that a truth has been refuted. Race, principle and honor should always precede party, for in all parties it is these that are involved and without these a party is worthless. In the revolutionary struggle, the fathers of this republic stood together for independence. The better way for our people to do is to stand together and contend for justice, though we suffer in the struggle. We want no fawning, no compromise with wrong, no surrendering of one jot or tittle of our rights. We desire to be charitable in all things, but when we see the entire race, snubbed, ignored and spat upon, we do the part of men to cry aloud and spare not.
THE FOLLY OF REPUBLICAN SYCOPHANCY.
Senator Carmack, of Tennessee, one of the most implacable of southern democrats, spurns the idea of building up a republican party in the south. He serves timely notice upon President McKinley and his coadjutors that the southern people are not to be cajoled by flattery and "the promise of cake." Mr. McKinley no doubt sees the point at which he is driving and will adopt no other course. It is very evident that he means to create a distinct white republican party in the south and if necessary leave the Negro to fight for himself as best he can. In short, if disfranchisement is adopted in every southern state, the indications are that the administration means to tolerate the act. The south is tickled at this most gracious condescension on the part of Mr. McKinley to wipe out sectional lines and receive into fellowship the very men who acknowledge themselves opposed to republican principles. Regardless of this fact there is a determined purpose to offer some strong inducement to bring white men into the party. This is being done at a sacrifice of the best interest of the republican party and all that is near and dear to the heart of the Afro-American. It matters not that a solemn protest is heard from the colored voter, and it avails nothing that the alarm is given in warning of the danger, which threatens the cause of free government. None of these things have served to deter the present plan of action. One might hardly believe that under our republican system a deal so repugnant to sense and honor could be contemplated, that the endeared right of citizenship could be thus tampered with. But our cause has been betrayed and is forsaken and we are denied even pleading terms for restitution. In the face of this fact, the bitterest opponent to Negro enfranchisement and elevation confronts Mr. McKinley with the declaration that however much he may be willing to make overtures, or however anxious he may be to please the south or surrender the cause of free government, he may rest assured that the end for which he labors will never be attained. With a cunning and sarcasm evidently designed to spur the president on in furtherance of his plans, Senator Carmack becomes exceedingly defiant, as much as to say, though you may renounce every proposition of freedom in the interest of the Negro, and this he must do, yet the principles and traditions of southern democracy will ever remain the same. The senator reminds the president what the south would ask at
his hands, yet he assures him that to the south his task will be a thankless one. Unscrupulous and insatiable in his greed, Mr. Carmack has long maintained an intensity of hate toward the black race and he conceals none of his hatred toward the republican party.
Officials of the patent office in Washington declare that inventions patented by women "are of just as practicable a nature as those got out by men." The first woman inventor to take out a patent in this country was Mary Kies, who devised a new corset in 1815. Succeeding efforts by women have included all sorts of ideas, but of late culinary utensils, furniture, furnishings and wearing apparel are in a big majority.
The medical examiners at West Point who have rejected 25 per cent. of the young men who presented themselves this year for examination on account of defective eyesight should not overlook the fact that the great military hero of the war with Spain could not tell a palm tree from a sky scraper at 50 yards. Col. Roosevelt went into the fight at San Juan with no less than six pairs of spectacles on his person and he is now vice president of the United States.
The new automatic Luger pistol, 1,000 of which have been bought in Germany for the American army, is one of the most remarkable weapons ever invented and is said to be capable of discharging 116 bullets in a minute. The weapon was invented by George Luger, a former officer in the Austrian army, and is made by the same people who make the Mauser rifle. With bullets coming toward him at such a rate an enemy would be kept rather busy doing the dodge act.
The Wisconsin wife who brought suit for divorce because her husband asked her to do the housework made a mistake in selecting her husband as well as hitting upon a ground for separation. The judge safeguarded the family when he threw the case out of court as without reasonable cause for action. If the necessity for doing housework were to be added to the other accepted grounds for divorce it would not be long before the man who permitted the water pipes to freeze would be in danger also.
Prof. E. F. Nichols, of Dartmouth college, Hanover, N. H., with the assistance of Prof. St. John, of Oberlin college, Oberlin, O., has perfected an instrument which will measure the heat of a candle one mile away, and of the stars millions of miles away. The question as to whether or not any heat is sent off from these bodies to the earth has long puzzled the scientists, but by means of this instrument the question has now been answered in the affirmative. The instrument is called a radiometer and is of complex construction.
It is now stated that there are 1,000 cases of leprosy in the United States, and that congress will be asked to do something to stamp it out. The government has been investigating the matter during the past few weeks, and is surprised at the number of cases reported by city and county officials throughout the country. In New Orleans 74 cases are reported, most of them being Italians. The state of Minnesota reports 23 cases. The best way to avoid the danger of such disease is to start early in the game and make a relentless fight.
Statistics from the census show that Massachusetts, which was the third state in density of population in 1790, is now second. It started in Washington's time with 47 inhabitants to the square mile and has now 349. Connecticut stood second in 1790, with 49 people to the square mile; it now stands third, with 187. Every New England and eastern state has increased its density of population in the last 20 years. New Jersey has now 250 inhabitants to the square mile; New York, 152; Pennsylvania, 140; Maryland, 120; Delaware, 94.
The proposition of the minister of Guatemala, at Washington, for an American tribunal of arbitration for the settlement of all differences which may arise between the nations on the American continent seems to be a wise one.
Major Taylor's Defeat Questioned.
When Major Taylor, the champion American bicylist, who went abroad to race some months ago, first met Jacquelin, the French champion, and all the money was "on" Taylor, the Frenchman easily won out; but when the great second race came off and sporting Paris had all their "stuff" on Jacquelin, the Major won in such a walk that now sporting Paris is mad and say that the Major was "fixed" in the first heat. After pocketing the money Taylor, who had been occupying the quarters at the Hotel Scribe, which were formerly occupied by President Kruger, quietly stole away, it is said, and sailed for New York. He proved himself so much superior to Jacquelin that it is said he must have purposely allowed himself to be beaten at first.

A MATRIMONIAL TIFF.
Settled When the Afro-American Husband Made Googoo Eyes at His High Kicking White Wife.
New York City. — A diminutive young woman (white) with a wealth of blond hair tripped up to Magistrate Olmsted in the Essex Market police court last week.
"I'm Doty Scott, the performer," said she. "I dance, sing and kick and am an artist at buck and wing dancing. I want my husband arrested. He beats me all the time. Just look at that bunch on my head where he clouted me this morning."
The warrant was issued, and Policeman Hickey, of the court squad, was sent to the woman's rooms at 8 Delancey street, where she said Scott was asleep. Hickey returned with Scott in the person of a young chocolate-colored Negro.
"What is your name?" asked the magistrate of him.
"Walter Munsey Scott, sah," answered the prisoner.
"What did you beat your wife for?"
"Deed Ah didn't, sah. Even if she be a white woman Ah respect an' love her. Ah jest tell you how it was. Ise also one of the perfesh. Ah write songs an' sing an' dance. She's playin' now in Joisey an' Ah is playin' in Harlem. She come home dis mornin' full of dat yere Joisey lightnin' or somep'n an' cut up in ouah room jest as Ah was asleep. Ah push her away an' she hit her haid, dat's all."
"Now, you tell his honah der gospel truth, Doty," continued Scott, making goo-goo eyes at his wife for all he was worth. "Don't Ah treat you as a good, lovin, husban?"
Doty's feelings must have undergone a sudden change, for she turned to the magistrate and said: "Really, you know I don't think my husband is responsible. I had him in Bloomingdale once. I don't think he knows what he's doin' when he hits me." "On that statement I will discharge him," said the magistrate.
The woman laughed as she stepped down off the bridge. "He ain't no more buggy 'n I am," she observed to a bystander. In the hallway she danced, kicked Policeman McKenna's helmet off and kissed her husband with resounding smacks. Then the couple went toward the Bowery arm in arm.
A THRILLING STORY
By a Writer (white) Who Has Had Many Excellent Opportunities to Study the Southern Question.
"THE VENGEANCE OF THE MOB" deals with the contemporaneous situation in the southern states and with the special tendency to invoke Judge Lynch on the slightest occasion and opportunity. The hero, a northern man, falls in love with a southern girl who, while passing for a Cracker's daughter, is in reality of better parentage. She reciprocates his love, but while residing in the hut of her supposed father, becomes acquainted with a Negro outrage, and inflames the susceptible and always willing mob to take summary vengeance upon the supposed outrager. Later it is discovered that the man who was lynched was guiltless and that the mob was guilty of murder—the girl especially, as the inspirer of the mob. This fact breaks off the engagement, and hero and heroine float sadly apart. The story is told with vigor and directness. As a study of contemporaneous life in the south, it is of great value. Mr. Sam A. Hamilton, the author of "The Vengeance of the Mob," was born at Lewistown, Pa. His travels have covered almost the whole of the United States, Canada and Mexico, and his observations have been embodied in letters to the daily press. While in the south during the winter and spring of 1899 he became deeply interested in the people known locally as "Crackers," and took many notes for future use. He was within a short distance of several of the most brutal outrages upon Negroes at the time of their occurrence. They made such an impression upon him that he collected a host of facts bearing upon them, some of which are embodied in this book. Mr. Hamilton handles the question from a point of view never before taken. The price of the book, neatly bound in cloth, is $1 a copy. The Abbey Press, publishers, 114 Fifth avenue, New York City.

CALLED DOWN.
“It I were king of some fair land,
Sweet little one,” he cried,
“I'd take you by the trembling hand
And lift you to my side;
Had [ to purple robes been born,
And you came on the scene,
‘Though you were lonely and forlorn,
T'd stoop to make you queen.”
“And if you loved me,” she replied,
“With all a lover's love,
‘You would not ‘lift me to your side,”
Nor seek me from above;
You would not speak of stooping down
‘To ‘raise me from below,’
For love would sweep away your crown
And all your kingly show.”
He gazed down in her flashing eyes
And slowly shrank away;
He left her with unhappy sighs,
Forgetting kingly sway—
‘The man who loves a maid and who
Would win her favor must
Proceed, when he begins to woo,
‘To grovel in the dust. '

A Fairy Story of To-Day.
DS TE TS TS TS TS THE TS THY TS TS TS TR TR TN TO

i prince and every heroine a prin-
tess, long before authors had used up
all the pretty make-believe subjects
and had been obliged to turn to and
hunt amongst the ugly everyday facts
of life for material to write stories
about, there lived a princess who was
#0 lovely that when men first saw
her they used to rub their eyes and
pinch themselves to make sure that
they were awake, and that she really
was a live princess and not a part of
a dream.
But the princess was as real as she
was beautiful. In fact, the only dif-
ference between her and the other
people you meet in the streets was
that the gods had been kinder to her
than to most foiks.
At her birth she had been given
many gifts. The sun had kissed her
cheeks, and this had come as such a
surprise that the two little blushes
that had been born there had never
quite died away; the night shades,
which were just hurrying off, left be-
hind them two trailing shadows in
her gentle eyes; the sun, too, had shed
some of his gold amongst her curly
locks; and nature hung a charm
about her so that she had a way of
winding herself around people's
hearts, getting more and more tight-
ly fixed every hour, until she nestled
in some warm corner and got all and
more than her share of love.
It was the same wherever she went.
Everyone loved her, first for her
beauty and afterwards for herself.
Old men and women, young men and
maidens, kings and courtiers alike,
made her queen of their hearts. But
in spite of all this love and admira-
tion, the poor, pretty princess was
not happy. For amongst other gifts
the gods had given her a golden
heart. Now, a heart of gold sounds
f& very nice possession. People en-
vied her, and used to tell their chil-
Gren stories about the beautiful prin-
cess with a heart of gold. But the
princess hereelf found it anything but
comfortable, and sometimes very
heavy. The fault was that it was too
fine a possession for everyday use.
It was not soft and yielding like ordi-
nary hearts on which it is easy to
make impressions, and so it came to
pass that, while everybody loved her,
the poor princess could not love any-
one. By this I mean anyone in par-
ticular, which, after all, is the only
kind of love that counts. She loved
everyone jus: in the same degree, she
gave them all sterling 24-carat love,
but all the time she ached to be able
to give some one person something
better and make him king and mas-
ter of her fine gold heart.
“Will nothing melt it?” she cried
to herself one day, after she had dis-
missed the latest of her admirers,
and the little gold heart was feeling
unusually cold and glittering.
“Am I to live all my life with a lit-
tle dead heart that will never awake
to love? Shall I always go on being
loved and never learning what love
is?” And she put her head down and
cried until the shadows in her dark
eyes grew deeper and deeper, and the
end of her little tip-tilted nose was as
pink as the heart of a shell.
“It is no good being so silly,” she
snid at last to herself. “If you go
on erying you will only make your
eyes red and yourself ugly, and then
where will you be? Worse off than
before! for folks will leave off lov-
ing you, and you will then he~2 noth-
ing left.”
So, being a very practical princess,
she set to work to dry her eyes, and,
having powdered her nose, she sent
for the court physician, of whom she
demanded a love potion which would
cure her complaint and meit her
heart.
But the physician was old. He shook
his head. His science did not admit
of love potions. He said they were
dangerous, and, worse than all, un-
professional. He would never admin-
ister one.
“Pooh!” said the princess, with a
little pout, after he had gone. “I
‘might have known better than to ask
‘a man about such a matter—especial-
‘ly one whose feelings have grown old.
Men know nothing about hearts.
| They call love indigestion if it is any-
one else who is suffering from it, and
indigestion love if they have it them-
selves. I must try elsewhere.”
So she put on her hat and hurried’
away to a big store kept by a woman
of the worid who traded upon her ex-
perience, and out of the wealth of
her worldly wisdom gave advice to all
who came to consult her.
‘The princess explained her symp-
toms. 2
“Sh!” said the woman, after she
had listened to her. “I can easily see
what is the matter with you. While
you were talking to me you spread
out your wings, and they were very
white. Yeu need a tonic called expe-
rience.”
“But,” said the princess, with great,
wide-open, astonished eyes, “I did not |
know that I had wings.”
“We all hav> wings,” said the world-
ly wise woman. “That is tne differ-
ence between us and men. Only some
of us don’t use them for soaring
with; some clip them early in life,
others draggle them in the mire,

oped ones that they are not strong
enough to even help them to rise
above the petty cares of life. Oh,
yes, we all have wings given us, beau-
tiful white wings; that is why men
sometimes call us angels. Yours are
particularly strong and white; it
comes of you having a heart of gold.”
“But the tonic!” broke in the prin-
cess, impatiently, thinking the wom-
an would never finish. “Where can I
get it?”
“Right at the end of the World’s
store, the last department on the
left,” said the woman.
“Oh!” said the princess, with a lit-
tle cry of dismay. “It seems such a
long way off. I am afraid I shall be
very old and very tired before I
get it.”
“Is it—is it very expensive?” asked
the princess, taking out her little
gold purse.
“It costs something to buy,” said
the woman.
“What do you think the cost will
be?” inquired the princess.
“It will have to be bought at the
cost of the whiteness of your wings,
I fear,” said the woman of the world,
rather sadly; for even she was begin-
ning to feel the influence of the heart
of gold, and to yield to the charm
that hung about the princess. “Ex-
perience is a tonie that must be paid
for. I have some others, such as pa-
tence, sweetness, fascination, cun-
ning and wariness, that I could sell
cheaper, but I am afraid they won't
suit your complaint; they are more
for gaining love than for giving it.”
“But,” said the princess, wavering,
“I don’t want to lose my white
wings.” Then, seeing the woman did
not say anything, she asked, abrupt-
ly: “Is it nice?”
“Sometimes it is, sometimes it is
not,” said the woman. “You pay your
money, but you can’t take your
choice. You must risk so much.”
“Thank you,” she said, “for your
advice; but I don’t think I care to
take your tonic. I don’t want to
smirch my white wings just as soon
as I have discovered that I have got
them.”
“Perhaps you are right,” said the
woman, laconically. Then she added
passionately: “Oh, I wish I had been
as strong as you are! Mine are full
of black quiils; not really black, you
know, but smirched and smeared—
their freshness gone. The world
would rub up against them, and I had
a silly idea that men liked piebald
effects. Now I know that this is a
mistake.”
“Never mind, you have had the lux-
ury of love and suffering,” said the
princess. “I know neither.”
So, although the princess did not
take the advice, the two parted
friends. “You will let me know when
you find yourself in the last depart-
ment on the left,” the woman cried
after her as she went away.
“Yes,” said the princess, “I will—
if I ever arrive there.”
' ea ee
So the princess returned to the pal-
ace really no wiser tuan she had left
it. All the comfort she had found
was that when the little gold heart
hung more heavily than usual she
‘used to wrap her white wings closer
‘around her and tell herself that there
‘was not one single smirched feather
in either of them.
Suitors ‘still came and wooed her
in vain, She listened graciously to
them all, because she longed to be
able to learn the lesson they came to
try and teach her. They used to look
at her tip-tilted nose, her dawn-
kissed cheeks, and eyes whose charms
were only accentuated by those trail-
ing shadows, and love her to distrae-
tion—all in vain. For the white wings
wrapped her round like a coat of
armor. There was no beating them
down; they ‘shielded the princess
heart and caused all her suitors to
stand on one side in awe and rever-
ence,
But one day there came a bolder
wooer. A prince with bright eyes
that knew no fear.
He saw in a glance what was the
matter. The whiteness of the wings
was freezing the princess into a
beautiful saint. He stopped his woo-
ing abruptly and took the princess
into his arms without as much as
saying “By your leave” or asking her
to love him back, and gave her one
kiss after another—and then waited.
The princess was so mightily as-
tonished that before she knew what
she was about she put her two soft
lips to his cheek and gave him back
a little ghost of his own kisses and
then slipped away.
That night when she folded her
wings she noticed that one of the
feathers was tipped with gray.
When she woke up in the morning
she wondered what had happened,
for her heart was aching and flutter-
ing as never a golden heart has ever
ached or fluttered before or since.
“Why is it beating like a bird
tgainst the bars of its cage?” she
asked herself in wonderment at the
new sensation.
Suddenly she knew, and turned
blushing away from her glass, not
liking even to meet the reflection of
her own eyes. “It can’t be that,” she
told herself, “Why, I was very an-
a
But all the same it was the tipped
feather that got all the preening that
morning.
1 wonder if I am really in the last
department on the left at last?” she
said to herself.
| Even the people who loved the prin-
cess most never guessed that she had
lost her heart of gold and found one
of flesh and blood to take its place.
| That was a secret between her
‘and the prince, and as they were soon
‘made one, it could hardly be called a
secret at all.
The people told even more wonder-
ful tales than before about her good-
ness and kindness, although some of
the women said that she had lost
some of her old saint-like tooks; but
no one ever knew the truth about
those white wings. The woman of
the world was the only one who was
ever keen enough to notice the gray-
tipped feather, and even she never
knew the real truth, although she
worried herself into a fine distraction
as to how the princess ever got into
the last department on the Jeft.
For, you see, she was too much of
woman of the world to understand
‘that it could be accounted for by such
an everyday thing as the ghost of
kkiss.—Lady's Pictorial ie

‘SAYS THERE’S SNOW ON MOON.
Prof. W. HB. Pickering Returns from
Jamaica with Results of Several
Months’ Observations.
Prof. W. H. Pickering, of the
Harvard observatory, who has been
making astronomical observations in
Jamaica, West Indies, for several
months, has brought a seriea of
Photographs of the moon, which ap-
pear to establish the interesting
fact that there is snow on the moon.
‘Yo secure the necessary details
the surface of the moon was arbi-
trarily divided into 16 parts, and
there are five pictures of each of the
16 parts, Arranged in series then
all the prominence and depressions
on the moon’s surface appear lighted
under five different angles of sun-
light, and the astronomer may fol-
low any chosen object of observation
under as many conditions of light
and shade.
What the snow is can as yet be
only a matter of inference. It is
most probably the snow of water.
It appears that the presence of an at-
mosphere on the moon is accepted
now among astronomers.
An Orange Tree.
One of the most interesting fea-
tures around the grounds of the de-
partment of agriculture is an orange
tree which now stands in a glass
house close to the main building,
says the Washington Times. The
history of the tree is interesting. In
1870 the late Mr. Saunders, the gov-
ernment expert on pomology, learned
that delicious seedless oranges were
being grown in Brazil. He obtained
some of the budding fruit from a
United States consul, and from it the
small seedlings were raised for dis-
tribution. The tree in the glass
house to-day is the only one of the
original lot to survive, and many ex-
periments have been made with its
branches. Finally a perfect tree was
obtained, and seedings were sent to
Florida and to California. ‘The Flor.
ida trees died, while those in Califor-
nia flourished. ‘Thus the naval, or
seedless orange owes its existence to
thh tree now fostered by the depart-
ment of agriculture.
Mrs. DeStyle—“Of course, this new fur
niture you've bought is quite pretty, but
it’s so distressingly new. It lacks the fash-
ionable marks in and antiquity.” Mr.

Where the Last Rale Lost.
A Memphis traveler who has just re
turned from a Mississippi tour says he
heard two farmers discussing the merits and
demerits of the square and round bale gins
as he was waiting for a train in a httle
village of the Bayou state.
“T likes the square bale best,” said the
lankest specimen of the two, “but they tell
me that one bale has to push the other out
like the way a hay press works, and I don't
think I want to carry my cotton to a gin of
that kind long toward the end of the sea-
a
“Why not?” queried the second.
“Well, if I happen to be the last man my
baie of cotton would have to stay in that
consarned press till the next crop came on
and the furst load was ginned, so it coald
push my bale out of the contraption.’ —

RICHEST NATION ON EARTH.
: New Commonwealth in the An-
tlpodes That Can Boast the Distine-
don.
| It will surprise many to learn that
‘the new commonwealth of Australia
‘is the richest nation on the face of
‘the globe. ‘There is not as much
‘wealth there in the aggregate as
‘may be found in some of the older
countries, but the per capita posses-
sions of the Australians far exceed
those of other people in Europe or
America. The commonwealth is a
continental island, rich in land fit for
settlement and industry. Its national
prosperity is dependent upon no
single product, but embraces pastoral,
agricultural and mining industries in
almost equal degree, and to these are
rapidly being added manufactures.
Last year the total value of the
products of the colonies forming the
Australian commonwealth amounted
to fully $550,000,000, of which their
pastoral industries represented $150,-
000,000, their agricultural $140,000,000,
their mineral products fully $100,000,-
000 and their manufacturingand other
industries the remaining $160,000,000.
The wool alone from 120,000,000
sheep raised in 1900 was worth $100,
000,000.
‘The mineral resources of Australia
cannot even be guessed at. In the
last 48 years the country has pro-
duced gold to the value of $1,S00,-
000,000, and in the last 20 silver to
the value of $150,000,000.
Diamonds are found in one district,
rubies in another. There is at least

How shall a mother who is weak and sick with some
female trouble bear healthy children ? o gia
How anxious women ought to be to give their children
the blessing of a good constitution ! :
Many women long for a child to bless their home, but be-
cause of some debility or displacement of the female organs,
they are barren. i 7
Preparation for healthy maternity is accomplished by
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound more suc-
cessfully than by any other medicine, because it gives tone
and strength to the parts, curing all displacements and in-
flammation.
Actual sterility in women is very rare. If any woman
thinks she is sterile, let her write to Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn,
Mass., whose advice is given free to all expectant or would-
be mothers.
Mrs. A. D. Jarret, Belmont, Ohio, writes:
“ Dear Mrs. PrykaaM :—I must write and tell hat your Ve
table Compound has done for me. Before tak ing your Thedicine I was unable
to carry babe to maturity, having lost two—one at six months and one at
seven. The doctor said next time I would die, but thanks to Lydia EK.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, I did not die, but am the id
mother of a six months old girl baby. ‘She weighs nineteen pounds and
has never seen a sick day in her life. She is the delight of our home.”
Mrs. Whitney’s Gratitude.
“Dear Mrs. PINEHAM:—From the time I was sixteen years old tM i
was twenty-three I was troubled with weakness of the kidneys and terrible
pains when my monthly periods came on. I made up my mind to try your
as = Vegetable Compound, and was soon relieved.
