HELPLESS AS BABY
Down in Mind Unable to Work,
and What Helped Her.
~ l
Summit Point, W. Va.—Mrs. Anna
Belle Emey, of this place, says: "I suf
fered for 15 years with an awful pain in
toy right siae, caused from womanly
trouble, and doctored lots for it, but with
out success. 1 suffered so very much,
that 1 became down in mind, and as help
less as a baby. 1 was in the worst kind
of shape. Was unable to do any work.
I began taking Cardui, the womar’i
tonic, and got relief from the very first
dose. By the time I had taken 12 bot
tles, my health was completely restored.
I am now 48 years years old, but ted aa
good as 1 did when only 16.
Cardui certainly saved me from losing
my mind, and I feel it my duty to speak
in its favor. I wish I had some power
over poor, suffering women, and could
make them know the good u would do
them.”
If you suffer from any of the aliments
peculiar to women, it will certainly be
worth your while to give Cardui a trial.
It has been helping weak women for
more than 50 years, and will help you,
too.
Try Cardui. Your druggist sells &.

j MISSIVES LONG IN TRANSIT
Correspondence Sent From Paris DUip
ing Siege Took Years to Reach
the Consignees.
What would Americans say if they
received mail matter that had been de
layed in transit for a lifetime? In
France., a few years ag.i, letters for
300 persons were delivered—to as
many of the addressees as were liv- ;
ing—that had been mailed years be
fore. They were delivered, moreover,
at the earliest puealMe moment; al
though the distance between the send
er and the receiver was in many cases
only a few miles.
During the siege of Paris by the
Germans in 1870 the postoffice admin
istration hit upon the expedient, in ad
dition to the balloons, of inclosing let
ters in small zinc globes, water tight
and hermetically sealed, and dropping
them into the Seine. There they float
ed, if they were not captured by the
Germans, dowh the river to the French
lines, where a net stretched across
the river gathered them In, and they
were sent on their way.
Unfortunately for the French, the
Germans discovered the character of
these zinc floats, and as they could not
hope to see and fish out by ordinary
means all the letters that went down
thus, they stretched across the river,
at Villeneuve Saint Georges, a net of
their own and effectually stopped this
system of postal communication.
The zinc balls and their use wers
pretty nearly forgotten, when, some
years ago, a fisherman found in the
Seine, near Villeneuve, a queer looking
globe of zinc. With a large knife he
opened It, and found 300 letters, still
legibile, and all dated December, 1870.
They were delivered to the postal au
thorities, and after this long wait In
the river went on their way.—The
i Sunday Magazine.
COLORS NOT BORNE IN WAR
—
British Troops Go Into Action With
out the Inspiration of the Regi
mental Colors.
The colors of the British army are
made of silk, with gold-fringed edges
and cords and tassels of crimson and
1 gold, mounted on a staff eight feet
i aeven inehes long.
To insure their absolute correctness
i In matters of detail and pattern, an
official of the Heralds’ College acts
as “inspector of colors." He has to
, furnish drawings and designs, and is
responsible that an unauthorized de
j parture is made from them.
Every infantry battalion has two
colors—“the wing’s" and “the regi
i mental.” The former is always of the
same pattern, and shows the union
jack on a hlue ground, while,the lat
ter has a wreath of roses, shamrocks
and thistles, with the regiment’s motto
and crest, surrounded by a list of th®
various battles in which it has taken
part.
Regimental colors are no longer car
ried into action, but are now left be
hind at headquarters when a battalion
proceeds on service. This has been
the rule since the Boer war in 188L A
j cepple of years earlier two young offi
cers of the South Wales Borders
■ were killed wu;Ie endeavoring to pro
| vent the colors, of which they had

Hla life Is full of rich and varied in
terests. From his second day on
earth, tied safely to his mother's

From his perch he participates In
the life of the neighborhood, and is a

Question of Degree.
On a writ of error to the supreme
court of one of the territories, counsel
for plaintiff In error sharply criticised
the rulings of the trial judge. When
the counsel for the defendant In erroi
began his reply, the following took
place:
"May it please your honors, before 1
finish my argument, I think I can show
you that the trial judge was not as
crasy as counsel on the other side
would make him out to be.”
By a member of the court: "Let ms
understand you; you admit the fact ol
insanity of the trial judge, but deny

Gentle, but Pointed.
A young practitioner had one trou
blesome patient—an old woman who
was practically on the free list, bat
who registered more kicks than all
the other patients put together. One
dlay she called to roast him for not
showing up when she called him the
night before. “You can go to see your
other patients at night,” she com
plained, ‘‘so why can’t you come when
I send for you? ? Ain’t my money as
good as the money that them rich
people pay you?” "I don’t know,
ma’am,” answered the doctor gently.
T have ne*er seen any of yours.”
