Mr. 0. A. Shfpnrd. of Caribou.

Maine, who was so dreadfully uffltcted with kidney disease nod rheumatism, and looked upon as curubJe, tells tbu following story ot his disability and in the fall of 1894 I had, as I supposed, Jcidnoy trouble, and it was slowly and surely milking headway in undermining my health for I was fast becoming unable to attend to my duties as a traveling salesman, my back'seemed almost ready to break after riding any distance in buggy or sleigh. The bad feeling had been growing in my back for a period of five or six years, but I had not given it much attention, nor supposing it to be anything bnl what would wear off. But in the full above mentioned I was compelled to give Rjy attention to it, for I had to stop traveling and go to doctoring myself. My efforts seemed fruitless. I grew worse and worse.

My weight was decreasing. My blood was tppareutly growing poor and less in quan- Uly. "At this stage symptoms of pulmonary trouble appeared, making a bud complication, which the physicians did not attempt to cure, and I had lost hope. "Just at this time, a friend, and he was a friend indeed, nil vised me to procure some of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and with little Faith that they would do me any good, but DUt of respect i'or my friend's advice, (I thought it would do no harm at least) I or- iered MX boxes.

I took them. My blood at ance began to increase and I for the first time in many weeks had a good night's sleep! My improvement was noticeable from the start! My weight began to increase! My appetite grew! Happy Welll think I was! I at last had found just what my system needed to defeat the robbers preying on my dealth and I thought it the time to be merry. "I purchased another half dozen boxes Mid when they were gone, two more, which effectually cured me. I increased in weight until from what was almost nothing for me, tipped the scales at 196 pounds, my present weight, and I owe it all to the Pink Pills. May the knowledge of them be brought to all suffering as I did, for I know they will be benefited and cured, and I deem it a pleasure to recommend them.

"I have traveled for thirty years and have heard of many strange thines, miracles, but I think my own experience stranger than them all. "Now I can drive hard all day, from early morning to late at night and not feel it. "I tm just as well as 1 ever was. No, felt bad effects from their use at all. It was a gradual but sure fight and the Pink Pills were victorious.

Long may they wave!" Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain, in a condensed form, all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves. They are an unfailing specific for such diseases as loco- motor ataxia, partial paralysis, St. Vitus' dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache, the afier effect of la grippe, palpitation of the heart, pale and sallow complexions, all forms of weakness either in male or female.

I have been surprised that trainers animals pay so much attention to mere tricks and none to what might be termed accomplishments, says a writer. Almost all animals are judges of music and susceptible to its influences; horses dance to it, snakes are charmed by it. It is even said that a lion can be soothed with it so as to render the king of beasts harmless. I know dogs not only enjoy music, but are sometimes good judges as to its quality, and I believe they could be taught by competent trainers to play correctly on musical instruments. I have one that was partially trained that way.

He is very fond of the music of a violin; he does not attempt to follow a tune, but keeps time on quick pieces with short barks, while pieces in minor chords are played he draws long, plaintive breaths. If I Introduce a false note, which I sometimes do on purpose, he will howl, and three or four such errors will make him leave on a run. He can detect a false note even more quickly than I cam THE SHOE! GIEL. The short girl has everything on her side so far as the men are concerned; a man feels immediately at with a short girl, and to most men that is half the battle. The tall girl may be more imposing, but she cannot coax and pont, and flounce into pretty passions with the same execution as the short girl.

Jfo man likes to feel himself dwarfed by comparison with the girl he is fond of. and here again the small woman has a decided advantage.

Nearly every typewriter girl keeps a pair of curling tongs in her desk drawers, and the smartest of them a cnnninsr little alcohol lamp, too.

Hcisem Harrison New York. SUNLIGHT SOAP. rx THE WOODS. A beautiful and unique wedding occurred recently in the mountain town of Boekland, Sullivan County, N. the details of which have just reached the outer world.

The ceremony was performed in the woods at Clear Lake Cottage, near Eeaverkill, by the Rev. Thomas'K. Beecher, of Elmira, N. a brother of the late Henry Ward Beecher, and the Rov. A.

F. Eastman, also of Elmira. The bride was Miss Theresa C. Hall, who has spent the most of her summers at this spot, and the bridegroom, Lyrnan V. W.

Brown, a Californian, who is a great lover of nature and outdoor life. The spot chosen i'or the wedding -was on the wooded shores of the Jake, where encircling trees and vines formed a natural audience chamber, around which rose sloping banks of ferns and shrubs. A company of about twenty friends and relatives "embarked in small boats about 5 o'clock in the afternoon and were roared to this beautiful place. The two ministers stood on the mossy carpet tha centre of the spot, with the friends grouped around them. The bride and groom came down a path through the woods and took their positions before the ministers, and the nuptial vowe were taken.

Congratulations and good wishes were showered upon the njwly married pair as they stepped down to the snore. The bride took her seat in the bow of the boat, while the husband plied the oars, and they were eoon out of sight. It was a scsne never to be forgotten. It presented a picture of an ideal marriage, celebrated in an ideal way, and in keeping with the simple tastes and high ideals of the bride and groom. -New York Herald.

3Irs. Lu S. Bain bridge, Snper- ictendent of the Woman's Branch of the New York City Mission, thinks well of it, and intends to organize a guild right away. The intention is to furnish work, in tho way of mending and plain sewing, 1 for that class which is always so piti- I prominent in large cities--that of persons who have been rednced in I csrcninstaBCes, and yet have so much pride tbat they cannot take employ- naent which would be welcomed by others who always have been accns- tomed to laboring for others. Thcs? rednced women are not lazy.

Inde they ere eager for work. Bnt they do not know how to by their sisters whose wants are more often brought to the notico of the public. In hundreds of families in New York there is a "mending basket" that is never than fall and running over. There are garments of all kinds that seem to become ragged without rhyme or reason, and that never yield to tho attacks of needle and thread to any satisfactory extent. Yet the housewife is anxious to see the heaps of torn clothing reduced, and is willing to pay reasonably for help.

She knows, however, that the average seamstress is not of much use in darning and patching, and that the work is not likely to be satisfactory if by her. Here is the chance for the reduced gentlewoman. If the guild conies into existence it wiil bring the housewife with the big basket of ragged clothes and the neat-handed woman anxious for work together. The proposition is that there shall be an official in connection with the guild who shffll be herself a practiced needlewoman, with a proper understanding of the value of the work to be done, and the best kind of person to do it. The women who need work will give their names and addresses to the guild, and the officer whose duty it will be to arrange the work and the price to be paid for it will peleet the woman she considers most adapted to a particular job.

The scale of prices must necessarily be moderate, but still high enough to reimburse the worker York Press. GOSSIP.

There is corirforVin the knowledge that so many forms of sickness are not due to any actual disease, but simply to a constipatedjSdndi- tion of the system, which the pleasant family laxative, Syrup of Fig.s, nrompt- ly removes. That is why it is the only remedy with mill ions of families, andia everywhere-esteemed so highly by aU who value good health.

Its beneficial effects are due to the fact, that it is the one remedy which promotes internal cleanliness, without debilitating the organs on which, it acts.
