Mrs. V. Curler, of Clarence, Iowa. Telle
n Interesting Story of Hr Kx
I , . perlenee WitK Pink Pllta.
From the Republican, Cedar Rapid., Iowa.
Mrs. V. Curley who has resided in
Clarence, Iowa, for the past twenty'
two years, tells an interesting story of
what she consi (teres resone front prema
ture death. Her narrative is as fol
lows: "For ten years prior to 1894, I was
a constant sufferer from aonte stomach
trouble. I had all the manifold symp
toms of acute dyspepsia, and at times
other troubles were present in compli
cation -I did ndt know what it was to
enjoy a meal. No matter how careful
I might be as to the quality, quantity
and preparation of my food, distress
always followed eating. I was des
pondent and bine. Almost to the point
of insanity at times, and would have
been glad to die.! Often and often I
could not sleep. Sympathetic heart
trouble set in and time and again I was
obliged to call a doctor in the night to
relieve suaaen anacKS 01 snnocation
which wonld come on without a
ments warning.
My troubles increased as time wore
on and I spent large sums in doctor
bills, being compelled to have medical
attendants almost constantly. During
1893 and 1893, it was impossible for
me to retain food, and water brahses
plagued me. I was reduced to a skele
ton. A consultation of physicians was
unable to determine just what did ail
me. The doctors gave as us their
opinion that the probable trouble was
ulceration of the ooats of the stomach
and held out no hope of recovery. One
doctor said, 'All I can do to relieve
your suffering is by the use of opium.,
About this time a friend of mine,
Mrs. Symantha Smith, of Glidden,
Iowa, told me about the case of Mrs.
Thurston, of Oxford Junction, Iowa.
This lady said she had been afflicted
much the same as I had. She con-1
suited local physicians without relief, iHtolr
and went to Davenport for treatment
Giving up all hope of recovery, she
was persuaded by a friend to take Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills. The result was
almost magical.
I was led to try them from her ex
perienoe, and before many months I
felt better than I had for a dozen
years. I am now almost free from
trouble, and if through Dome error of
diet I feel badly, this splendid remedy
sets me right again. I have regained
my strength and am once more in my
usual flesh. I sleep well and can eat
without distress. I have no doubt that
I owe my recovery to Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills. I only wish that I had
beard of them years ago thereby saving
myself ten years of suffering and much
money.
Dr. Williams Pink Pills contain all
the elements necessary to give new life
and richness to the blood and restore
shattered nerves. They are for sale
by all druggists, or may be had by mail

NOT A TENDERFOOT.
An Impromptu Dance at Which
Xkupree Was Muter. '
One day a lot of rustlers and all
around thieves and cutthroats rode into
a mining town in Arizona and proceed
ed to have fun. They rode up and
down the main street firing right and
left until they scared everybody indoors.
Then they went into the principal saloon
of the place for liquor. Jim Dnpree
happened to be in the saloon at the time
and, as usual, had no gun with him.
Those fellows caught sight of him, and
as he was the freshest-looking duck they
had seen for many a day, they started
in to have fun with him. The leader
of the gang was a ruffian called Long'
Haired Pete. As soon as he saw Dupree
he pulled his gun and sent a bullet
through the floor right between Jim's
feet. '
"Give us a dance and be lively
about it," shouted Pete, while hig gang
gathered around to see the fun.
Jim got up without a word and start
ed in to dancing a regular old Kentucky
breakdown. Those fellows thought he
was scared almost to death. He danced
around in a circle, and as he came in
front of the leader of the gang his foot
suddenly shot up and caught Long
Haired Pete squarly under the chin.
The ruffian measured his length on the
floor.
Quick as a flash Jim leaped forward
and snatched the two pistols carried by
the leader of the gang. Then, with a
smile as innocent as that of a boy he
covered the gang and told them all to
dance.
They hesitated for a moment Then
Jim sent a bullet through the toe of
Pete's boot, and another through the
hat of Lon Spivey, a member of the
gang. They danced then, and at the
first sign of a let-up Jim would shoot
a button off some man's coat or clip off
a lock of long hair with a bullet.
Without taking his eyes off the gang,
Jim told the barkeeper to send out and
get all the boys to come in and see the
fun. They all came quickly enough,
and Jim kept that gang of outlaws there
dancing until some of them dropped to
the floor exhausted.
Then he made every man of them
hand over his gun to the barkeeper,
after which he ordered drinks for the
crowd. When the fun was over he told

W. D. Howelle Bays She Hat Been Her
Before and I Ko New Creature.
The New Woman who comes smok
ing, comes talking, and she talks to all
lengths and breadths in notion. But
if this is true, has she come talking in
any greater number than before? There
were always women who liked tho ex
citement of thin ice, iu their choice of
topics, especially if the water was not
very deep underneath, and this sort are
still sliding about in conversation. Per
haps there is really a greater frankness
in the matters spoken of in mixed com
panies than there was a generation ago;
but within the same period women have
greatly abridged the freedom of their
innocent relations with men iu our own
country. , The chaperon has oome, and
haa cyme to stay, in all her superfluity,
as it would have beea accounted by
mothers of daughters when they were
only daughters themselves. In this
respect the American woman of 1808 is
vastly less than the woman of 1845, for
what was really a novelty among young
people, and of our own invention, has
been exchanged, in good society at least,
for a remnant of the old conditions
which Europe has been slowly out
growing, and which we had flung aside
with pur political allegiance to Eng
land. It was one of the few social
growths indigenous to our soil, it was
graceful and sweet and pretty, and it
was rooted in our purer life; but for
the last quarter of a century we have
been rapidly recolouizing ourselves, and
in nothing more than our wish to ex
tinguish the ohartning liberty that once
existed among young people here.
I suppose there is a sort of newness
in women's wish to know rather more
of all sorts of things than they used;
they have a great many oontrivauoes 1
for the improvement of their minds:
they take up different varities of work
sociological and economical; they in
terest themselves in the condition of the
poor; they have opinions favorable to
the unhappy; they wish to take large
views, and to act helpfully and gener
ously; and I should be very glad to be
lieve that men were equally renewing
themselves in the same ways. But we
do not hear much of the New Man,
and we are left to believe that he has
not only not arrived, but has not start'
ed. No one really knows whether he
has arrived or not, however, except the
New Woman, and she is still so uncer
tain nerseir, in lire, that we nave no
means of authenticating him from her
knowledge. In fiction, such fiction as
I began with in this rambling inquiry,
he is not a pleasant companion. He is
rude to the new girl, brutally rude, and
he is not very kind to the old girl,
He says and does things that only the
lady novelist has hitherto conceived of
men's doings, and his behavior in no
tion makes ub willing to get on without
him in life for a long time yet What
is certain is that 11 the New Man ever
does oome, the New Woman will be too
good for him, just as the old woman
is too good for the old man now and
always has been. Harper's Weekly.
OUR IRON ORES.
PROTECTION FROM MOTHS.
Woolen Clothing Should Be Thoroughly
Mended Before Putting Away.
This is the time to put away the
heavy furs, for the moth millers are
already beginning to fly. People rush
about buying all sorts of expensive
moth-preventives, when they are not of
the least use. If furs and clothing are
put away with the moth egg in them,
all the odors in the world, good, bad,
or indifferent, would not keep them
from hatching. The time when the
Quantity, Quality and Variety A bund
ant-Capltal Wanted to Itlllie It.
We have made frequent mention of
our iron ores, and the business which
would follow the Investment of a sum
of money sufficient to manufacture those
ores into the common trade, the Post-
Intelligeuoer says:
"It has been a matter of surprise to
many who are familiar with the re'
sources of this country why the number
of iron furnaces projected on this coast
failed to materialise, and it is equally
a matter of regret to thoso who project
ed the enterprises that they failed to
accomplish results, through no fault of
their own. The making of iron and
steel by modern process requires the
investment of a large amount of oapi
tal an amount extending into the
millions and it also requires great
skill in manufacture and management
In one or two instances the capital re-
quisite has been secured and every hope
held out of its immediate availability,
but through unforeseen reverses and
financial troubles the money was not
forthcoming and the preliminary work
was compelled to suspend. Capital,
always timid, is slow to enter untried
fields, and once driven away, it is hard
to secure its return.
"The services of exports have bocu
secured on many occasions, and at great
expense, to examine the mines of iron,
coal, ooke and lime, to report carefully
on tho quality, quantity and avail
ability. The reports have been invari
ably good, and as such oould be passed
upon favorably in the greatest irou cen
ters in America and Europe. The cost
of manufacturing pig iron and its con
version into steel was also ascertained;
this was found to be within the limits
of Pittsburg furnaces; the market for
the metal, either pig iron or steel bil
lets, was found both at home and
abroad. In one instance the product of
a large plant would have beeu scarcely
sufficient to supply orders extending
over a long period. Large home orders
oould have been secured amounting to
hundreds of thousands.
"With the return of prosperity it is
hoped that renewed effort will result in
securing what the country so much
needs capital and that the men who
have striven so long and faithfully to
invest it in iron furnaces, converters and
rolling mills will meet with the suo
cess their enterprise deserves. It
means a great deal to Seattle, to Puget
Sound, to Washington; it moans the
taking of millions of wealth from tho
mountains; it means the employment
of thousands of skilled and unskilled
workmen; it means the building up
of great industries on solid and lasting
loundatious; it means the building up
01 a great manuiacturing city and a
grand state."

New Way of I) running the Hair.
The banged girl is transformed.
All the girls are wearing those cun
ning little side combs which hold in
place the unruly tangles of their fluffy
front locks. Above the combs the hair
lies sleek and smooth as a demure
Madonna's; below their restraint the
fuzzy ends stick out as if in rebellion
at their tutelage. And the girl will
look at you with big, wise eyes and say
with that little Mark Twain drawl they
all affect nowadays: "It takes so long
for it to grow out again."
Even so. The Madonna can become
the banged girl in an hour, but to be
come a Madonna again is a task of
months. Yon become whole-haired
again "while you wait. " so to speak.
Wherefore I should counsel deliberation
and much weighing of the pros and cons
before becoming a banged girl again.
Meanwhile, though, there are the
combs.
The little side combs are meant to be
but temporary, and it may not be in
the best of taste to decorate them, but
have seen them blazing with gems.
A better place for these is the big back
comb, which may be shell, with gold
panels, or all gold, or may produce the
effect of a tiara of diamonds. Phila

putting them away at all. When the
warm spring days come the heavy fur
coat or jacket is hung up in the closet
lest it may be needed again, and per
haps it is worn once or twice and then
hung up again, and in the hurry of
spring work forgotten until somebody
sees moth millers flying about frequent
ly. Xnen the lurs are taken out, per'
naps brushed a little, and put away
smothered in camphor or in something
else that is useless as it is expensive.
In the fall, when the clothes and
furs come out, there is weeping and
wailing, for the hair flies from the furs,
and holes, always in the very worst
places to mend, are found in the clothes.
Then there is any amount of wonder
ing, and "I can't imagine how it hap
pened, for I put them away so carefully
and used such a lot of moth stuff.
The proper way is to lay the heavy
clothing in a chest as soon as the use is
not daily, and then it can be taken out
and worn when the oold days oome and
extra wraps are needed. When the
oold weather has fairly gone, then every
separate article should be taken out and
hung on the clothes-line on a clear day
if there is a wind, so much the better,
as the dust will blow away from you as
you beat it out. After beating with
light switch of some kind it should be
both tough and elastic brush the
clothes carefully. Never put olothes
away with soiled spots upon them;
scour them all out first It is a very
good plan to have them all thoroughly
mended, for the children's clothes are
always needed in a hurry in the fall,
and if put away in order it is a great
gain in every way. When all the
clothes are thoroughly beaten and
brushed and cleansed, fold every article
separately, and with care as to folding.
Do not leave them on the line to air,
for that is the very time that the moth
miller takes to lay her eggs. They are
very plentiful out-doors just as soon as
the weather becomes mild and are wait'
ing for a chance to get into the house,
and no article of woolen is safe if left
out half an hour. Then see that your
chests are absolutely tight, that there
are no cracks, in them anywhere. If
there are paste newspaper over the
cracks, wherever they are, and
that there is not even the most infini
tesimal crevice for the moth miller to
enter, for if there is one she will find
it Wrap up each article separately,
either in old sheets or in old towels or
in papers. Bee that all are scrupulously
and absolutely clean. Pack them in
with care, so that they will not be
crushed or wrinkled, and spread a
sheet over the top, and tuck it in close
ly all over the things. Close your
chest, and if you are sure that you will
not need to open it during the warm
season, paste paper over the edge of the
cover. But if it closes tightly there
will be no danger from the moths.

Advice for Angler.
U, gentle angler, you who are
fortunate enough to get away from the
business treadmill, look to it that you
take your sport as an honest angler
should. It may be great fun to kill
them as fast as you can drag them out;
there may be a certain satisfaction in
killing more than the other fellow can
show, but believe me these feats do
not constitute the real pleasure of an
gling. One need not be forever staring
at an arching rod, or straining silk;
one's ears need not always be filled
with the click of a string-spewing,
string-eating nondescript clock, which
measures the life of a captive aa our
watches measure our days. An angling
outing oilers many better things than
dead fish. The marvelous life stirring
in everything, the merry gossip of the shortened.
brook, the ceaseless music of the joy
ous birds, the hues of conntless flowers,
the perfumed, lazy breeze, the beauty,
healthfulness and purity of it all, will
yield to the observing angler more last
ing pleasure than ever falls to the. lot
of the man who fishes for count and
estimates his gratification by the
amount Ol life be can destroy within a I never minerrd ao little with any of my
irivan r.imn Vn flab hnnl1 t. children a I did with my lat."
