"I unhesitatingly advise expectant moth ers to use Dr. l'ieree's Favorite Prescrip tion, "writes Mis.J.W. O. Stephens, of Mila, Northumberland Co., Va. The reason for this advice is that Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre tention is the best preparative for the maternal function. No matter how healthy and strong a woman may be, she cannot use "Favorite Prescription" as a prepara tive for maternity without gain of health oiid comfort. But it is the women who are tiot strong who best appreciate the great benefits received from the use of "Favorite Prescription." For one thins its use makes the 'a advent practically painless. It !i is in many eases reduced days of suffer ing to a few brief hours. It has changed the period of anxiety and struggle into a time of pi.se md comfort.

It has re mained for a Philadelphia professor to trace this phantasy to its source; to materialize the vague impressions of dreamers and to reduce them to a mat ter of science, says the New York Her ald. It has long been common knowl edge that our conception of both musi cal tones and colors is due to the effect of vibrating waves of moyement, but it Js something new to lciun that there is a close and exact sympathetic rela tionship between the notes of the scale and the colors of the spectrum; that the same system of nature governs each and that discords arise in ill matched hues from infringement of the same rAiles which govern the com bination of sounds according to the science we call harmony. It is amazing to learn that the seven colors of the rainbow exactly corre spond with the seven notes of the gamut, anil that red. being the domi nant, lias to the other colors the same comparative refraiigibility, or "wave lines," as the ciui.ihi.uu in any chord has to the oilier noles in the scale. It ill blend uiti&tieally and pleasingly only with su'h colors as represent liotes which in music may be harmon iously u.m u with the dominant. It is claimed by the discoverer of this phc in (! tioti in science, and he has devotol the last :-' years to the ? ; tidy of r la ! ionsliip between tone and olor, that the rays of liirht which pro duce red, at the base of the spectrum, correspond exactly with sound waves resj,; lisil.'e for "do," the keynote at 1be ba.v of the tot ic scale. Orange corresponds with "re," yellow with "no," liior. with "fa." blue with "sol," I urpl- with "la" and violet with "si." JVfore scientific experiments and re search s?a!.'!.di d these facts, argues the professor, impressionists, poets and painters felt this close union be tween tone and color. Artists knew that a warm splash of red, giving an impression of prominence and nenr "fs to the eye. woi.M dominate the whole picture. "Do," the tonic in nuisie, is recognized as the centripetal t.irce. Opposite in effect is the cool, I'm ;iI 1 Inc. which is in agreement n ith "sol," the ch ar, ringing "fifth" of tl." s"nle. ti(. tone of eentri fuiral force, while lr.idv. iiy r.':d i:i perfict harmony "mi." the yellow, the sweet but un obtrusive "third" of the scale. These three color combined form a most pleasing group, while the correspond ing tones form the tonic chord, the basis of all harmonj. This remarkable science, or theory, whichever it may properly le called, lias been put to practical purpose In the artistic and, musical training of little children, at an nge when their mind are especially susceptible to im pressions of sweet sounds and bright colors, when the intelligence is mainly woikii:g throiifc'h the medium of their petiBes. . .!. ....... For this purpose an ingenious ar rangement of colored balls and sticks has been devised, by which the first instincts of harmony are instilled into children who have scarcely learned their alphabet. At the same time they become acquainted with the artistic arrangement of colors. While certain sequences or com binations of colors are being exhib ited, sympathetic melodies and chords are heard, and the little ones quickly learn to associate the two. ' After awhile they will sing tunes hitherto unlearned or unheard by them, mere ly following the exhibition of the dif ferent colors, which to them have be come associated with and expressive of tone. For instance, should the fol lowing sequence of colors appear: lied, lied, Orange, Violet, h'ed, Orange. Yellow, Yellow, Green, Yellow, Orange, lied, Orange, Red, Violet, lied, they would instinctively recognize the ! melody of "My Country, Tis of Thee," and heartily join in singing. To have taught this by musical notation would have been impossible. When they have grown older the or dinary method of musical tuition is aided by the printing of each note in its corresponding color. This is claimed to show the essential unity of the scale in all its different positions on the staff, to give a pictorial repre sentation of the modulations from key to key and greatly to simplify the study of harmony by showing at a glance the reel character of the chord. German field Guns Unsatisfactory Still Rife in Rural Districts of England and In Spanish Towns. In Somersetshire the peasants have no doubt as to the play of maleficent influences, says the Academy. The pig that falls ill and dies was '"overlooked." A murrain "afdiets a farmer's cattle." and off he goes to the '"white witch." that is, to the old witch finder, to learn who has "overlooked his things," and to ascertain the best antidote, '"because they there farriers can't do no good." A child pines away with some mys terious, wasting sickness, which the Tipperary peasants,' as shown in the recent falsely called "witch burning" case, believe to be the work of fairies in substituting a "changeling," but which the Somerset woman refers to the action of a witch who has cast a fatal glance upon the victim. Often she gives up not only hope, but all effort to save the child, the conse quent neglect, of course, hastens the expected result and then it is: "Oh! I ;know'd very well he wouldn't never r get no better. 'Tidn' no good for to strive vor to go agin' it." This is no fancy, no isolated case, but here in the last decade of the nineteenth century one of the commonest of everyday facts. While in England the belief is mostly confined to rural districts in more back ward countries, as Spain and Italy, it flourishes in the large towns. In Na ples the appearance of a person having the ill-repute of a jettatore is the signal for a general stampede, and Mr. El worthy amusingly relates the fright which he unwittingly gave a second hand bookseller in Venice when asking about a copj' of Valletto's "Cicalata sul Fascino." On hearing the last words of the title '"the man actually turned ami bolted into his inner room, leaving the customer in full possession of his entire stock." I'io Xono was be lieved to have the jet-itore and the faithful, when seeking his blessing, protectively pointed two fingers at him.

When the street cars took their places they wen torn up for the material in them, until by lS.' there was just one out of the several lundred left standing in an old stable jutside the city.
