Periodic
Pains.
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills
are a most remarkable remedy;
for the relief of periodic pains,
backache, nervous or sick head
ache, or any of the distress
ing aches and pains that cause
women so much suffering.
As pain is weakening, and
leaves the system in an ex
hausted condition, it is wrong
to suffer a moment longer than
necessary, and you should take
the Anti-Pain Pills on first in
dication of an attack.
If taken as directed you may
have entire confidence in their
effectiveness, as well as in the
fact that they will leave no dis
agreeable after-effects.
They contain no morphine,
opium, chloral, cocaine or other
dangerous drugs.
“For a long time I have suffered
greatly with spells of backache, that
seem almost more than' I can endure.
These attacks come on every month,
and last two or three days. I have
never been able to get anything that
would give me much relief until I be
began the use of Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain
Pils, and they always relieve me in a
short time. My sister, who suffers
• the same way, has used them with
the same results." MRS. PARK,

FiRST OF NAVAL BATTLES.
It Was Fought in Marylan/Waters
in the Early Colonial
Days. ,
April 23 of this year was the two
hundred and sixty-ninth anniversary
of the first naval battle fought in
American waters. On that date two
armed forces met at the mouth of the
Pocomoke river, within the boundaries
of the province of Maryland, and set
tled, at least temporarily, the authority
of Lord Baltimore. The settlement at
been made but 13
of arms oc
ronicle.
I.the land
s under
e of the
rles I.,
shed by
Irginia, on
a settlement
ent homes and the
soil, but merely, a place
fixed upon by Claibourne for conven
ience of trade with the Indians. Kent
Island was clearly within the Jurisdic
tion of Lord Baltimore, but Claibourne
very foolishly resisted his authority
and refused to take out a trader’s li
cense from the proprietary’s govern
ment at Sb Mary's. This stubborn
stand of Claibourne resulted in the
capture early in the year by Capt.
Thomas Cornwaleys, one of the Mary
land commissioners, of a vessel be
longing to Claibourne for trading in
the waters of the Chesapeake without
a Maryland license.
Claibourne realized now that he
would either have to break down Lord
Baltimore’s authority by force of arms
or be compelled to submit to that au
thnHtv Ha olruxaa tr\ flnrhfr and
Ingly, he fitted out an armed boat, the
Cockatrice, which was manned by 30
men and placed under the command of
Lieut Radcllffe Warren, who was com
missioned by Claibourne "to seize and
capture any pinnacles or other vessels
belonging to the government of St
Mary’s.”
This was a declaration of war and j
when the news of the rebellion reached i
Gov. Calvert he at once determined to j
put it down, as becomes a governor
whose rights are denied and whose au- j
thority is defied. Knowing the strength
of the insurgents, he wisely fitted out a
superior force, with the full determina
tion to crush the spirit that was giv
ing him no little trouble. So he
manned and commissioned two vessels
—the St. Margaret and the St Helena
—placed them in command of the gal
lant Capt. Cornwaleys, with orders to
■•arch out and destroy the enemy and
reduce Kent island to submission
The little squadron sailed out from
St Mary’s with the Maryland colors
dying from the flagship and animated
by the same courageous spirit that two
and a half centuries later inspired an
other Maryland naval commander in
his gloriously successful search for the
Spanish fleet In the waters of the West
Indies. Their course took them across
the bay and soon they were rewarded
by sighting the sails of the insurgent
shi; off the mouth of the Pocomoke.
Corr.waleys skillfully maneuvered his
little fleet so as to prevent the escape
of the enemy and both sides cleared
for action. The Insurgents delivered
the first fire, and so true was the aim
that William Ashmore, of the Mary
landers, fell to the deck, the first
American sailor whose life was sacri
ficed while in action upon the altar of
duty. The sight of their dead comrade
inspired the Maryland men to greater
determination, and made more deadly
their aim and threefold more terribls
their revenge. Their first fire killed
the enemy’s commanding officer—
Lieut. Warren—and two of his crew.
The Insurgents having lost their leader
and ^two of their comrades and seeing
certain destruction staring them in the
face, were brought to realize that dis
cretion was the better part of valor and
therefore they wisely struck their col
ors and surrendered themselves and
their vessel to the victorious aMry
landers.
Kent island was afterwards subdued
and Claibourne stripped of hi3 posses
sion. But he did not cease to be a
source of great trouble to the settlers
of St. Mary's and more than once suc
ceeding In destroying, for a time, the
eovernment of Lord Baltimore. But I
that belongs to another story.
Thefts from Hotels.
A certain hotelkeeper in Washington j
says that the people have no idea of the J
small depredations that are committed !
by guests, most of who are people of
money enough of their own to refrain.
He declares that not long ago he bought
700 yards of toweling for his rooms, and
before he had time to learn whether or
not the rooms had been supplied, the
whole outfit was gone, says the Washing
ton Post. “They are drummers, and
women and all kinds of people who took
them," said he, “and probably they did
not think it was stealing to take thing?
away from the hotel. As to downright
theft from rooms, or bilking in the mat
ter of meals, there is much less of it In
hotels than you would suppose; but j
Lord! how they will crib the soap and
linen and spoons!"
Far from Home.
Relative—I notice that you have at Iasi
got acquainted with your next-door
neighbor, who has lived alongside of you
for the past ten years.

panion. We became very intimate.—

MOCCASINS FOR SOLDIERS.
Inquiries Made by Representatives of
Powers at War for “Bangor’s
^ Golden Slippers.”
Inquiries have been received in
Bangor, Me., _ from persons sup
posed to represent either the Rus
sian or the Japanese government
concerning prices for moccasins
in large quantities and the earli
est date of delivery at Atlantic or
Pacific ports. It is supposed that
the moccasins are wanted for sol _j
diers campaigning in Manchuria.
For that purpose they would be
eminently suitable, says the New
York Sun.
The moccasin is the favorite
footwear of the lumbermen of
Maine, and was first made in Ban
gor in 1851. At first only one or
two styles were made, but now
moccasins are manufactured in
great variety, ranging from slip
pers for women and children—
soft as kid and embroidered with
beads—to the stout boots and lar
rigans of the Penobscot lumber
men.
Much of the sewing is still done
by hand, being let out by the piece
to French Canadian families in
the neighborhood of Bangor. All
moccasins are made of a specially
prepared leather, rendered a gold
en yellow by a peculiar process of
tanning.
me common moccasin is uui j
proof against water, but it has'5
room for several pairs of stock-j <
irjgs, and that is a strong point In *
its favor. For keeping the feet
warm and dry in cold weather the I
moccasin has no equal. 4
The greater part of the mocca
sin leather still comes from the
place of its origin, Pawtucket,
R. I., although a considerable
quantity is tanned in Bangor.
Some years ago Bangor men es
fa.blished factories at Red Wing.
Minn., and Racine, Wis. j
The dainty bath slippers, which
are not really moccasins, but are
made from soft elk skin, are in
great demand at home and a broad, ]
atid are especially favored by the
ladies of Japan, to which country
Bangor sends large quantities. It
now seems likely that “Bangor’s
gotderi slippers,” as moccasins are .
caMed, may be worn by the con
tending armies in Manchuria.
JAPAN’S FIRST IRONCLAD, j
-■■■ ■■■ ■■ 1
Htr Crew Made a Brave Start, Bat
Couldn't Stop Her Till Fire*
Went Out.
That the role of Japan as a mar
itime power is a new one is
brought strongly to our notice by
recalling the quite well authen
ticated story of the first adven
ture of the first Japanese iron
clad, says Country Life.
She was built in England.
While she was building her drew
were also in England practicing,
in other ironclads how to drive
her. When she was finished the
Japanese seamen took possession
of her, bravely maintaining that
they were fully equal to the task
of starting her.
And that, to be sure, they were, ;
for she steamed out finelyt The
trouble only began when snecamo i
back to port again, then, when ■
they wanted to slow her down and t
stop her, they were unable to do
so.
They had to f)ut her out to sea
again and go on steaming her
about till her fires went out, her
engines stopped for want of
steam, and she could be towed in.
From this to having the best
mentally-equipped crews, perhaps,
of any nation seems a long step,
but it has heed a very rapid oae.
Insect Senses.
Naturalists have decided that
maay insects have senses which
human beings lack. That of loca
tion, shown by the wasp, for in
stance, is remarkable. One spe
cies builds its nest in a sandbank
that is only a part of several acres
of such soil, and when it leaves in
search of food it covers the nest so
carefully that no ordinary eye .
could discover its location. That
is to say it is just like all the sur- ,
rounding location, and yet the
wasp flies back to it without hes- <
itation and finds it without mak- j
ing a mistake. There is another S
wasp ttat unerringly locates the ;
eggs of the mason bee under a '
thick layer of sun-baked clay, and 1
deposits her eggs in the same \
cells that her young may have t
food when they are hatched.
