Catarrh
Whether It is of the nose, throat, stomach,
bowels, or more delicate organs, catarrh Is
always debilitating and should never tail of

It Is a discbarge from the mncons mem

Miss M. Cartledge gives some
helpful advice to young girls.
Her letter is but one of thou
sands which prove that nothing
is so helpful to young girls who
are just arriving at the period of
womanhood as Lydia E. Fink
ham's Vegetable Compound.
" Dbab Mrs. Ptnkham: I canmt
praise Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound too highly, for it
is the only medicine I ever tried which
cured me. I suffered much from my
first menstrual period, I felt so weak
and dizzy at times 1 could not pursue
my studies with the usual interest.
My thoughts became sluggish, 1 had
headaches, backaches and sinking
epells, also pains in the back and lower
limbs. In fact, I was sick all over.
" Finally, after many other remedies
had been tried, we were advised to get
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, and I am pleased to say
that after taking it only two weeks, a
wonderful change for the better took
place, and in a short time I was ir
fierfect health.- I felt buoyant, full of
ife,' and found all work a pastime. I
am indeed glad to tell my experience
with Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound, for it made a dif
ferent girl of me. Yours very truly,

PRESIDENTS AS SPORTSMEN.
Booaerelt Not the Only One to Indulge
In Hunting.
Persons interested in the bia- mm
hunting trips and the daily athletic
exercises of President Roosevelt need
only to examine the records of form
er presidents to learn that he is bv
no means the first executive to anend
his vacations and leisure hours in the
pursuance of sports, says the Phila
delphia Ledger. No more arduous fish
erman and duck shooter could be im
agined than President Cleveland. At
his home near Buzzard's Bay he spent
every moment of his leisure time In
his favorite pastime with the rod and
reel. It was a common thing to see
Mr. Cleveland out to catch the proper
tide even before dawn, and his skill
is said to have been equal to that of
any of the old shellbacks in the neigh
borhood when it came to playing a
bass.
Nor was President Cleveland the
first to dignify the ground which Is
popularly called the "presidential hunt
ing preserves." President Harrison
went duck shooting along the shores
of these waterways and hunted every
foot of them clear to the sea. AH
sorts of wild duck abound in this dis
trict, among them canvasbacks, and
besides these quail, pheasant, snipe, and
wild turkey are to be found. President
Harrison was a fairly good shot wllh
a gun, but his first venture proved
slightly disappointing, for he mistook
a black pig belonging to a negro for a
raccoon. He offered at once to settle
for the pig, but the patriotic owned
declared on the ground that he hud
been highly honored by a president of
the United States shooting his pig,
and that the proud distinction would
be handed down from one' generation
to another In his family. President
Harrison never took much to horse
back riding nor to field sports, but
with shooting be fell more and more
in love as he became older. He even
shot buck from a "sneak-box," an
achievement of which any duck hunter
may well be proud.
Before George Washington became
Gen. Washington be hunted all over
this same ground. After he became
a general be had little time for hunt
ing and shooting, but he was passion
ately fond of horseback riding and
was considered an excellent horseman
even during the days when lumbering
stage coaches were responsible for
much riding in the saddle and when
horsemen were plentiful.
Curious to say, fond as President
Cleveland and Harrison were of the
water front, neither of them ever found
pleasure in swimming. President John
Qulncy Adams was by all odds tho
swimmer president of the White
House. Next to Benjamin Franklin
he was the best swimmer of any public
man in Washington. President Adams
also was a remarkable walker and
frequently combined his two hobbies.
Often he arose before dawn, walked
as far as Georgetown, " where he had
a secluded nook, and stripping plung
ed into the Potomac. Then, after a
long, refreshing swim, he would dress
and walk back to his home, where he
arrived by break of day, ready for
whatever came.
President Arthur was always espe
cially fond of camping "and hunting
and fishing, and on one occasion was
100 miles from where he might have
been reached by telegraph wire.' Bass
and trout were Mr. Arthur's favorites.
He is said to have been remarkably
expert at casting the fly, and once,
when on a visit south, the Fishing
club of Louisville presented him with
an exquisite rod, suitably engraved,
and of this the president ever felt espe
cially proud.
President Garfield was also given to
the pursuit of sports. He did not care
for fishing, however. Hunting was hi
pet diversion. But aside from this be
took a lively Interest In all sorts of
field sports, especially In the national
game, baseball. At no time was theis
a more enthusiastic baseball "crank"
in Washington than was the president.
He was elected an honorary member
of the old National baseball club, and
he frequently attended the games play
ed by his team, and followed Its victor
ies with a Jealous eye in the morning
newspapers. Billiards was another
favorite diversion with resident 'Gar
field. During his administration a new
billiard table was placed in the base
ment of the White House, and here he
played almost regularly every after
noon. President Garfield also was fond
of horseback riding. Taking him all
In all, he was probably the most all
round sporting president, for no mat
ter what the sport he felt at least a
mild Interest In it.

SAVED CHILD'S LIFE,
A Remarkable Cure of Dropsy by Dodd's
Kidney' Pills.
Sedgwick. Ark., July 11. The case
of W. 8. Taylor's little son is looked
upon- by those interested in medical
matters as one of tbe most wonderful
on iecord. In this connection his fath
er makes the following statement:
"Last September, my little boy had
dropsy; his ieet and limbs were
swollen to such an extent that he could
not walk or put his shoes on. The
treatment that the doctors were giving
him seemed to do him no good and two
or three people said his days were
short, even the doctors, two of the best
in the country told me he would not
get better. I stopped theii medicine
and at once sent for Dodd's Kidney
Pills. . I gave him ,hree pills a day,
one morning, noon and night for fight
davs; at the end of the eighth day the
swelling was all gone, but to give the
medicine justice, I gave him eleven
more pills. I used thirty-five pills in
all and he was entirely cured. 1 con
sider your medicine saved my child's
life. When the thirty-five pills were
iven him, he could run, dance and
sing, whereas before he was an invalid
in his mother's arms from morning
until night."

METHODS OF THE QUACK.
New Tork la Ilia Chosen Field, an
Eaetern Medico Sajra.
The physicians of Philadelphia and
Boston sniff more or less haughtily,
at the ways of their fellow healers of j
New York, according to a very frank
and conservative physician of this
town. The conversation at the start
was about new remedies, concerning I
many of which the doctor, who was
taking his own profession to task, was
very skeptical. :
"The spirit of empiricism," he said,
"Is altogether too prevalent in this
city and it is growing every year.
For the sake of money, for the sake
of advertising without appearing to
udvertise, many physicians who. are
rated as reputable are trying all sorts
of ways of violating the good old
spirit of medical ethics without of
fending against the letter and being
called to account by tbelr associates.
"It Is in tbe field of so-called new
remedies and discoveries that the evil
Is most manifest. Quackery has im
proved its methods and glossed over
Its activities with a veneer of what
passes for scientific research. Scien
tific expression and Latin names have
been . more generally adopted to de
scribe what the quack of a generation
or so ago would have been satisfied to
call a plain 'cure-all,' and hawk at
the country fairs.' Now it is different
The empiric produces his concoction
and cajoles some physician Into writ
ing a quasi-scientific article about It
for a medical Journal.
"That is all thnt is needed. Men
of standing accept the fact, whatever
it may be, and furnish the articles;
and journals, regardless of the fact
that they have reputations to sustain,
print them. Then they are reprinted
far and wide as contributions by Dr.
So-and-So, graduate of this, that and
tbe other medical school, to such and
such a Journal. Rural physicians all
over the country read and believe, and
a demand for -the new stuff Is prac
tically assured.
"Hundreds of these new things are
brought out every year, and although
they all have advocates. It Is fair to
say that not more than one in a hun
dred is worthy of adoption by the pro
fession or of being rated as a gen
uine contribution to the science of
medicine.
"It Is in this city thnt most of them
are fathered and touted,' and, as I
said before, the practice has brought
us into more or less disrepute with
the more conservative and less avari
cious physicians of Boston and Phila
delphia. Of course, in consideration
of a question like this, Chicago doesn't
count." New York Sun.

LINCOLN FOND OF CIRCUIT.
Welcomed by All the Other Lawyers
and by the Landlords. .
Following the court about on the cir
cuit was, no doubt, the Joy, of Lin
coln's life. He was so fond of it that
he declined a flattering offer to enter a
lucrative Inw partnership In Chicago,
because, as he contended, It would ne
cessitate more or less confinement in
the office and therefore keep him 'off
the circuit.
Seated in a one-horse buggy, behind
a sorry-looking Animal, he would set
out from Springfield to be gone . for
weeks at a stretch. The lawyers, as he
drove Into each successive place, eager
ly anticipating a new stock of stories,
gave him a cordial welcome and the
landlords hulled his coming with de
light, for hev was one of the most
patient and uncomplaining guests. "If
every other fellow," relates one of bis
colleagues, "grumbjed at the indiffer
ent accommodations and scant fare
which greeted us at many of the clin
gy taverns we struck Lincoln said
nothing."
Ills forbenrance in this regard well
warrants the observation he Is said
on one occasion to have mude, that
he never so completely felt bis "own
unworthlness as when he stood fuce to
fuce with a real, live hotel clerk." How
he appeared on the circuit may be
gleaned from this sketch of him drawn
by Henry C. Whitney, one of his col
leagues In Central Illinois, who is yet
living:
"His hat was brown, faded and the
nap usuully worn or rubbed off. He
wore a short cont and sometimes a
shawl. His coat and vest hung loose
ly on his giant. frame. His trousers
were invariably too short. In one hand
he carried a faded green umbrella with
'A. Lincoln' In large white cotton or
muslin letters, sewed on the Inside.
The knob was gone from the handle
and a piece of cord was usually tied
around the middle of the umbrella to
keep it from flying open. In the other
hand he carried a carpet bag, in which
wore stored the few papers he used in
court and underclothing enough to Inst
till his return to Springfield." Cen
tury. Handicapped.
