4 VHAt DREAMS MAY COME CopyrlKht, 1901, by T, C. McClure. All ilny lontf the heavy louden clornlB bud tliriwU'iitiitf ruin, mid toward j evening ft begun, very Hnftly at fli'Ht, ' but growing Htuudlly In volume, until at 8 o'clock It wub a verl bible downpour, milling (eadlly ou the tin roof of tliej liotel jjIjizzu und bunting ugiiliitit the Windows In Nplteful fuslilon. . It whs cold, too, uud u cheerful lire cmckJcd aud Kputtered Bturdlly In the big II replace In tne hotel ofllco, but de eplte the lire and the lights uud the gay , chatter of the guests eougiegnted In 1 the big palm lined room the effect of the storm outside was glaringly evi dent. A cold, rainy evening at u popu lar summer hotel is something to be re membered und avoided. Near the llrepluce ut n scoe of little tables the, energetic Sirs. 1'ottor hud started n game of progressive euchre, mill In the big hall the orchestra bud been pressed into unwilling service by some of the younger guests, and the Btnilus of the latest popular waltzes und the sound of shullllng feet drew many people thither. Streeter, lounging in a chulr near the desk, alternately read a morning paper for the third time and tried to find some Interest hi the uttempts of the other guests to amuse themselves. In sheer desperation he was perusing the "want column" when he saw Miss Gale come down the broad stairs. He wis by her side In u moment. "I wanted to claim you before Mrs. Totter kidnaped you or some one else drugged, you off to dance," he explained laughingly. The girl smiled amusedly and shook a linger at him. "I can see at n glanco that you are bored to death uud in search of diver sion at any cosl," she snid. "Your diagnosis Is correct," said Jie. "I nm suffering from that unhappy malady, or I was until I caught sight of you. You know that It was because you recommended litis place that I enrne here. Now, you must do your best to dispel the gloom that has de scended upon me." "What shall 1 do?" she asked lightly. "Introduce you to sonic of Mrs. rot ter's proteges or get Mrs. Vuudent to give you the personal history of every one hereV" "I think," said Streeter, "that Chopin In the music room would be the host uy:!!ioU" . . ''You are very modest In your de mands," she laughed. "Chopin you shall have until you cry for mercy. Come on!" ' : -U'Uey inado their way to the little music room far down I ho corridor, and to Slrceter's unutterable delight they found It (juite deserted. Streeter turned out the lights aud lighted two little rod sanded candles on the piano. "Just right now for the fifth noc turne," lie said as he purveyed the two Etpots of color in the gloom. The girl ran her lingers over the keys, and Streeter drew a chair near her and sat down. She began to play the lirth nocturne very softly, mid Btreeter, leaning Inek comfortably, witched the pretty proHle outlined faintly by the candle light. And us he listened to the ruin beating against the windows he realized the good that a seemingly 111 wind hid blown htm. The nocturne died away as it had be gun, very softly, and he drew his chair Into the little circle cf light. "The only trouble with that noc turne," he said gravely, "Is that, like nil things temporal, it comes to an end." "Are you fond of them?" she asked. "I'll play another." "Io you know," he said quickly. "I have often dreamed of some such situ ation as this." "A long, dreary evening at a storm bound summer resort V" she laughed. "No," ho said serMisly; "of a piano find caudles with litMc red shades and nf vni nlaviiur nocturnes to tne. like If you ore nervous nnd tired out continually you could have no clearer warning of the npprouch of serious teumle trouble. Do not wait until you suffer un bearable pain before vou seek treat ment, ou nwnl in of Curdul now just ns much m if tho trouble were more developed and tho tor turing pains of disordered men struation, bearing down pains, leucorrhoea, backache anil head ache were driving you to Uo un failing relief tiiatwine of Cardui has brought hundreds of thousands of women and will bring you.

Chattanooga, Tenn., aud the moaicino will be sent you, thebesF & WOMEN 1 this.' She began another nocturne, even more softly, that it might not inter rupt theii conversation. "Dreams very seldom come true," she said. And whether or not her tone was mocking Btreeter wis at loss to decide. He 'silently listened to the nocturne and studied the girl's profile intently, but the profile was noneomtnltal. He leaned forward In bis chair and spoke very softly. "It was a very pretty dream," he sold, "oneftof those Intangible bits of hap piness that makes one loath to como to prosaic ' earth again. There was one thing about those dreams, how ever, quite different froln this partial realization." "And what was that?" she asked. "The piano nnd the. little red shaded candles and und you were In my own house," he said. The nocturne grew a trifle louder. The girl's glanco wns turned to the other side of the room. "What n presumptuous dream I" she said. "Wns it?" said Stroeter meekly. "I couldn't help dreaming It, you know." There was a long pause. Then he said slowly: "Perhaps It was presumptuous. You Bee, I wasn't asleep when I dreamed it." The nocturne enmo to an abrupt end hig. The girl rose from the pinno. "You're not angry?" said Streeter in alarm. 1 "N-no," she said. "Then then," ho began nnd halted miserably; "Tell me," ho said, "do dreams go by contrary?" The girl had reached the door. Rhe turned, nnd even In the dim light he could see th deep color In her cheeks. "Not not any dreams," she almost whispered. GRANT OWEN. HUGE STATUE OF BUDDHA. The MiimiiHitli Ilceliiiliiff Figure at ItnttKuiit Iltirimi. To tho eastern traveler tho statue of Buddha Is a familiar sluht. From Colombo, In Ceylon, to Kolie, in Japan, ho In ovcrywliero greeted by tho same mini, Impassive anil mysterious face of tho eastern prei-cptor of perfection. But In no city in the orient do the form and faee of ltuddhu constitute 80 frequent or so essential a part of the city's decoration as in IUii;:mi, Bur ma, starling place of Sir. Kipling's famous "ltoad to Mandalay," the stronghold of Buddhists. Notable even anions tho countless statues of liiingun Is tho mammoth Buddha, rep resenting lite strange teacher not standing or sitting erossleggeil, as In the majority of statues, hut reclining on a huge raised couch, his mighty form stretched out for I'OO feet, vhilo Ills shoulders rival the wKith of that wonder of the ancient world, the t 'olos sus of Uhodes, their ttluuic breadth reaching llt'ty feet. tint one among the wonders 01 uun- j pun, this nudity figure rests near mo i famous Shony Dagou, tho center of the Burmese Buddhist world, crowned by the golden pagoda, which rises 300 feet , above It, Its walls covered with pure . gold, the gift of a prince who contrib uted Ids weight in gold to the pagoda. In the Shony Dngou there are countless other statues of Buddlul, as well as relics of (laittatna, tho last Buddha. All, equally with tho huge reclining Buddha, form a part of the religious rites of tlio Buddhists, for the es sence of Buddhism consists In the struggle to become like Buddha, to at tain his perfection by obedience to his precepts. To do this It Is necessary al ways to have Buddha 111 mind, and it Is for this reason Mint every city In the Buddhist world Is literally crowded with his Images. Uuddlia himself Is not deltlttl. l'otentiiilly every Bud dhist tuny attain Ills perfection, but only by the eternal Imitation of his practice. But, while statues such as Unngun's huge colossus are Important in Bud dhist worship, of even more Importance are the relics of Buddha. It was about the Miouy Hagon that the Burmese made their last tierce light when the British came to ltangun. A Venetian traveler of S1O0 years ago vis iting tho Shoay Itagon has left a de scription of this famous temple, con ceding Its claim to rivalry with his own Venice, that would serve as a con temporaneous description, and today, as In untold centuries past, the Bur mese still bring their offering of flow ers and fruit, candles nnd paper lings, to lay before the huge reclining Bud dha, whose hands would afford com fortable standing room for four of the worshipers and whoso gigantic faco wears the strange. Inscrutable expres sion of calm which Is the outward murk of spiritual Buddhism. New York Tribune.

"tiure!" said the druggist, sturlng at him with good humored Incredulity. "Well, I have devised a method that can't possibly fall. I'll tell you nil of it but one partlculur, and If it looks promising you pay me u dollar, and I'll give you the whole scheme. If it doesn't look all right, yon can say so und save your dollar. There will be no barm done. Does that sound fair?" "Yes. (Jo ahead." The caller whispered in his ear for the next two or three minutes. "That's nil but the final and most important pnrt of it," lie said. "Is It worth a dollar to know the rest?" "Yes.

WOMEN NOT TRUTHFUL This Statement Has Been Unjustly Made, Because Modest Women Evade Questions Asked By Male Physicians. ' An eminent physician says that "Women are not truthful; they will lie to their physician." This statement should bo qualified; women do tell the truth, but not the whole truth, to a male physician, but this is only in re gard to those painful and troublesome disorders peculiar to their sex. There can'be no more terrible ordeal to a delicate, sensitive, refined woman than to be obliged to answer certain questions when those questions are asked, even by her family phyrtieian. This is especially the case with un married women. Is it any wonder, then, thai women continue to suffer and that doctors fail to cure female diseases when they cannot gut the proper information to work on ? This is the reason why thousands and thousands of women are now corre sponding1 with Mrs. Pinkhnm. To her they can and do give every symptom, so that she really knows more about the true condition of her patients, through her correspondence with them than the physician who personally questions them. Tf you su flrer from any form of trouble peculiar to women, write at once to Jlrs. Finkham, Lynn, Mass., and she will advise you free of charge. The fact that this great boon, which is extended freely to women by Mrs. Pinliham, is appreciated, the thou sands of letters received by her prove. Many such grateful letters as the fol lowing are constantly pouring in. Ask Mrs, Pinkham's Ad:ce-A Woman Debts Drove Him to Death. Chicago. March 18.
