MRS. HARRIET A BEGOLE TELLS OF
AN UNEXPECTED BLESSING.
Loil Her Voice and Did Not Speak Aloud
for Nearly Thirteen Years -How
Her Speecli Was Restored.
The Ypsilanti Commercial. Ypsilanti, Mich.
Many things appear miraculous that
are really the result of natural laws
the workings of which can be accurate
ly predicted. A striking example of
this occurred in a prominent Michigan
family recently, and in this case there
can be no question as to the truthful
ness of the narrative since it is attest
ed by Mrs. Harriet Begole, of Ypsil
anti. Mich., a sister-in-law of Mr.
Joshua Begole, who was governor of
Michigan in 1883-84. When inter
viewed Mrs. Begole said:
"In 1886 1 suffered from a severe ill
ness brought on by a hard cold. Dur
ing this illness my voice left me and
I did not speak again above a whisper
for nearly 13 years.
"I was treated by five local physi
cians and afterward went to New York
and consulted 'the leading specialists
there. They diagnosed my case as par
tial paralysis, stating that the left side
of my throat was entirely paralyzed
and the right side partially so. I re
turned home utterly disheartened.
"For nearly eight years I have suf
fered from a severe stomach disorder
and about a year ago I decided to try
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale Peo
ple for this trouble. I vas much bene
fited bv the first box and so was en
couraged to persist in their use. My
stomach trouble was relieved, my gen
eral health became greatly improved
and to my surprise 1 regained control
of my vocal organs. I have used. five,
boxes of the pills and last November I
spoke aloud for the first time in almost
13 years. I am now 71 years of age
and have full control of my voice. I
feel so grateful that I wish to make
known to others the wonderful cura
tive powers of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills for Pale People.
(Signed)
MRS I! ARRTET A. BEGOLE."
Sworn to and subscribed before me
this 19th day of May, 1899, at Ypsil
anti, Mich.

There is nothing surprising in this
cure, remarkable as it is, to those who
know that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for
Pale People are so compounded that
they act simultaneously on the blood
and nerves. They tone up the system
and cannot be excelled as a corrective
or a disordered digestion as was proved
in the above case. Their power in re
building wasted nerve tissue makes
them invaluable in the treatment of
parti paralysis, and to this fact Mrs.
Begoje owes the restoration of her voice
after years of useless but expensive
treatment.
Dr. William's Pink Pills for Pale
People contain in a condense ? form all
the elements necessary to give new life
and richness to the blood and restore
shattered nerves. They are an unfail
ing specific for such diseases as locomo
tor ataxia, partial pr.ralysis, St. Vitus'
dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rheuma
tism, nervous headache, the after effect
of la grippe, palpitation of the heart,
pale and sallow complexions, all forma
of weakness either in maid or female.
Dr. William's Pink Piils for Pale Peo
ple, are sold by all dealers or will be
sent postpaid on receipt of price, 50
cents a box or six boxes for $2.50,
(they are never sold in bulk or by the
100), by addressing Dj. William's
Medicine Company, Scheuectady, N. Y.

Scrofula
THE OFFSPRING
OF HEREDITARY
BLOOD TAINT.
Scrofula is but a modBed form of Blood
Poison and Consumption. The parent
who is tainted by cither will see in thf
clnld the same disease
manifesting itself in
the form of swollen
glands of the neck and
throat, catarrh, weak
eyes, offensive sores
and abscesses and of
tentimes white swell
ing sure signs of
Scrofula. There may
be no external signs for
a long time, for the diseasejdevelops slowly
in some cases, but the poison is in the
blood and will break out at the first favor
able opportunity. S.S.S. cures this wast
ing, destructive disease by first purifying
and building up the blood and stimulating
and invigorating the whole system.
J. M. Seals, 1 15 Public Square. Nashville, Tenn.,
says : " Ten years ago my daughter fell and cut
her forehead. From this wound the glands 00
the side of her face became swollen ana bursted.
Some of the best doctors here and elsewhert
attended her without any benefit. We decided
to trv S. S. S.. and a few bottles rani hr n.
Urely."
sss
mafces new and pure
dioou to nourish ana
strengthen the body,
and is a positive and
safe cure for Scrofula.
It overcomes all forms of blood poison,
whether inherited or acquired, and no
remedy so thoroughly and effectively
cleanses the blood. If you have any
blood trouble, or your child has inherited
some blood taint, take S. S. S. and get
the blood in good condition and prevent
the disease doing further damage.

A sheet of water one inch thick and
one acre in area weighs 101 tone.
An old Danish galley was recently
dug up in England, while an excava
tion was being made. Its timbers
are of oak and elm and they are well
preserved. The vessel is assigned to
the time of Alfred the Great, which
would make it over one thousand years
old. An antique sword and some bones
of animals now extinct In England
were also found.
Some of the vast changes which the
face of the earth has undergone are
indicated by the recent discovery in the
small lakes scattered among the ex
tinct volcanoes of Auvergne in France
of the survival of certain forms of ma
rine animals. Salt plains exist there
whose deposits were formed before vol
canic forces upheaved the surrounding
rocks and created mountain peaks and
craters.
It has been asserted that insects are
particularly attracted by the colors of
certain flowers. Felix Plateau, after
Investigating the conduct of insects In
their visits to various flowers, con
cludes that while they may perceive
colors and thus be enabled to distin
guish, at a distance, between flowers
and leaves, yet they show no prefer
ences among the different colors. Blue,
red, yellow, white are indifferent to
them. He thinks that the odor of flow
ers affects Insects more than their col
ors do.
The experiments of the French grape
growers In Algeria have shown that
too much sunshine Is unfavorable for
the making of good wine. In the more
temperate climate of France grapes
possess a proper proportion of sugar
to acid for wine making, but the hot
Algerian sunshine induces so active an
assimilation by the vines that the
quantity of acid is reduced and that of
sugar Is Increased. In consequence,
the wine makers of Algeria are driven
to jnany devices for improving the fla
vor and lasting quality of their wines.
X-rays have been subjected to a
novel purpose In Calcutta. A thief was
supposed to have stolen a diamond
worth 10,000 rupees and to have effec
tually secreted it on his person by
swallowing It. Expert thieves in India
temporarily secrete small valuables of
this description In the throat It is
called "pouching," and the thieves un
dergo special training In order to ren
der them proficient in the art. The
plan Is simple. A small piece of lead
is attached to a thread, and this the
neophyte swallows, then by the action
of his tongue he guides the lead to
the orifice of the sac In the throat. The
pupil is prevented from completely
swallowing the lead by the piece of
thread which the teacher holds. When
the man has become skillful in this act
of swallowing, the leaden pellet is coat
ed with lime, which has the effect of
enlarging the sac so that it becomes
capable of retaining large articles: In
the case of Calcutta the Roentgen rays
revealed the presence of some obstacle
In the throat, but its precise identity
could not be gathered.
THEY NOW KNOW BETTER.
Geologists Have Discarded the Old No
tion About Glacial Movements;
A few years ago geologists confident
ly aserted that at one period of the
world's history a great lee cap came
moving down from the polar regions
and swept over North America as far
south as latitude 38, carrying with it
great bowlders which lie about on
slopes and hilltops to this day to proTje
it and scratching the record of Its
movement upon cliffs and ledges. Then
this ice cap kindly melted and disap
peared. This was taught in the schools,
i nd to doubt It was heresy; for science,
when it takes up with a theory, la dog
matic, and all geologists said: "Behold,
how wonderful is our knowledge; what
secrets we can wrest from the past!"
After a while science rather gave up
the polar ice cap theory and laid down
a new dogma that of a single conti
nental lcfe sheet for North America.
The recent investigations of officers
of the Canadian geological survey
prove that the scientists evolved their
glacial theory out of a vivid Imagination-.
It has been found that in north
ern Alaska there is no evidence that
that part of the country ever was cov
ered by a glacier in fact, conclusive
evidence exists that it was not, At the
mouth of the McKenzIe River is plenty
of evidence of glacial action, and also
that the glacier which left its records
came from the south. On the western
shores of Hudson Bay are marks of a
glacier which came from the west, and
on the eastern shores of one which
came from the east. East of the Cana
dian Rockies is a long belt which shows
no evidence of ever having been ex
posed to glacial action.
These and similar discoveries have
put the geologists "all at sea," and they
now have evolved a new theojpjwegard
ing the glacial period. It is that one
big glacier did not at one time cover
all the North American continent, but
that several glaciers, moving at differ
ent times from different centers of dis
tribution, made their way in different
directions and left the glacial records
which are now found. They have even
given names to these glaciers, such as
the "Cordilleran glacier," the "Labra
dorian glacier" and the "Keewatln gla
cier." Prof. Lawson, of the University
of Califo.n'a, in writing on the subject
in the International Monthly, says that
as yet It cannot be said that the suc
cession of these great glaciers in time
has been established well enough to
warrant an unqualified acceptance, but
he seems to have little hesitation in ac
cepting the theory of different glaciers
moving from different points. ."
HE FOUND ONE HONEST TOUT.
Man from the Race Track Who Trusted
a Stranjrer ani Won Oat.
Among the passengers on an elevated
train the other night was a party of
men returning from the race track, and
from the unmistakably good humor
they displayed it was clear that they
had succeeded In getting some of the
bookies' money. They were talking of
the dishonest people met at a race
track, and the general opinion seemed
1 3
to be that to find a half-way decent
sort of tout was a task few cared to
undertake. Everybody waspesslmistic
till a man who had refrained from .ex
pressing an opinion said:
"I've been listening to you folks tell
your experiences, and when you say
that there Isn't an honest tout I want
to tell you of a little experience I had
with one of those fellows last week,
and I'm sure that when I get through
you will say as I do, that there Is a
good one to be found now and then.
I'd been playing in the hardest kind of
luck all day, and when It came time for
the fifth race I had no great trouble in
counting my roll, which amounted to
just $5.80. I picked out a long shot as
a last hope, and I went around in quest
of the best odds. Soon I ran across a
book that was laying 10 to 1 to win,
and 4 to 1 a place, and I was about to
hand up my bet of $2 to win and $3 for
a look-in, when an arm was thrust
over my shoulder and a voice exclaim
ed: 'Five straight and place,' and the
owner of the arm mentioned the name
of the very horse I had intended to
play. The bookmaker took the money.
Then, before I could open my mouth,
he put down the odds. I said I was in
line, and he should have taken my bet
first, and it was tough to be shut out
that way when a fellow was down to
his last few dollars, but It wasn't any
use.
"Just then the man who'd got ahead
of me said: 'Say, I can understand' just
how you feel, and I'll take you on for a
place bet, at least.' This struck me as
being a kind proposition, and we settled
that he should take my whole $5 for a
place at 4 to 1. He hurried away from
me as soon as he got my five, and then
it occurred to me that maybe I was up
against It, for I had recognized my kind
friend as one of the best-known touts at
the big tracks. The horse I had picked
won the race, and with little hope of
ever seeing the fellow again I went
over to the free field to find him. 1
couldn't, and was on my way back to
the grand stand calling myself a
chump, when I heard some one yelling
at me and saw one of the bookmakers
beckoning. I walked over to him, and
he was the man who had shut me out
on the bet I was going to make.
" 'Ain't you the man that made a bet
with a fellow here a while ago on so
and so for a place?' he said. I answered
that I was, and he told me that he had
something that was left by a man for
me. You can imagine my surprise when
he handed me out $25 with the explana
tion that my friend was In a hnrry and
could not wait, so had left the money
for me. As I counted the money I
thought hard, and since then I take
credit for having discovered the first
honest tout any of us has ever known."

The work of adjusting the ladder for
use Is slight and no time need be lost
In placing the apparatus. Tbe chair is
wheeled to the window, and the but
toned back stripped off, when the reel
of links and rungs Is presented to view.
The outer end of the ladder is provid
ed with two grappling hooks, which
are attached to the window sill and the
reel tossed out of the window. The
weight- of the ladder holds the hooks
firmly, and the ladder is then ready for
descent. When the apparatus is In
position In the back of tbe chair it is
concealed by a covering of cloth, which
Is provided with snap buttons around
its edge, this being the handiest to
unfasten in case of a fire.

LIEUTENANT PETERSON
Says Peruna Is tbe Finest Tonic
and Invigorator He
Ever Used.
Lieutenant Charles Peterson, Hook
and Ladder Co. No. 21. writes the fol
lowing letter to The Peruna Medicine
Co., from 827 Belmont avenue, Chi
cago, 111.:
"Last year I had a severe attack of
la grippe which left me very weak, so
that I was unable to perform my duties.
Several of my friends advised me to
build up on Peruna, and I found it fey
tar the finest tonic and invigorator I
had ever nsed. In two weeks I was
strong and well, and if ever I am ex
posed to unusual hardship incident
with my duties at fires, I take a dose
or two of Peruna and find that ' it
keeps me in good health."
Charles Peterson.
The above is only one of fifty
thousand letters we have on file
attesting the merits of Peruna.
There are a great multitude of peo
ple in all parts of tbe land who have
entirely lost their health as a result ot
la grippe; who have recovered from an
attack, but find themselves with weak
ened nerves, deranged digestion, and
with very little of their former powers.
There is no disease known to man
that leaves the system in such an out
rageous and exasperating condition as
la grippe.
For this class of sufferers, Peruna is
a specific. Peruna should be taken ac
cording to directions and in a few
weeks the sufferer will be eatirely re
store 1 to his accustomed health.

Fresh Views of Life.
Much might be said on the wisdom
of taking a constantly fresh view of
life. It is one of the moral uses of the
night that it gives the world anew to
us every morning, and of sleep that it
makes life a daily re-creation
God is thus all the while presenting the
cup of life afresh to our lips. Thus,
after a night of peaceful sleep, we be
hold the world as new and fresh and
wonderful as it was on the first morn
ing of creation when God pronounced
it "very good," And sleep itself is a
divine alchemy that gives us ourselves
with our primitive energy of body and
mind.

Havoc Wrought by a Beer Bottle.
Farmers in our extreme northwest
ern states have been greatly puzzled
over the origin of fires occurring upon
their prairies far remote from locomo
tive sparks, in sections not visited by
lniians and at seasons of tbe year
when there were no hunters in the
country. They have carefully traced
hack the progress of these fires until in
each case they have found the flames
proceeded from a point in the grass
where lay a castaway beer bottle, itself
the focal poiut of all the trouble. The
spherical glass in the bottom had acted
as a powerful concentrating prism and
through this the sun's rays had fifed
tne dry. plain. Thus the traffic which
corrupts politics endangers rural pros
perity. On the whole will not some
body rise up to tell us what class in the
community the brewery does benefit
and how?
