HAPOLEON'S MAGIC TABLE.
There was a hurry call for the ambulance of the City Hospital. In the course of a few moments a
'V-sry sick woman was brought in on a stretcher she was pale as death and evidently suffering keen agony.
There was a hasty examination and consultation, and in less than a quarter of an hour the poor creature was
ou I he operating table to undergo an operation for ovaritis.
The above is an accurate account of an incident which occurcd in New York recently; the young
xnan in question had warning. enough of her dangerous condition in the terrible pains and burning
-sensation low down in her left side. She had no one to advise her, and she suffered torture until it
v.as too late for anything to save her life.
Women should remember that if they do not care to tell a doctor their
troubles, they should be willing to tell them to a woman, who stands ever
ready to advise and help them. Again we state that Mrs. Pinkham's advice is
ireely and confidentially given to every one who asks for it. Address, Lynn, flass.
The following letters prove beyond question that Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound has the power to cure, and does cure thousands of cases
rf inflammation of the ovaries, womb, and all other derangements of the
J&male organism.

"Dear Mrs. 1 'in iuiam ; I wish to express my gratitude for the restored health and happiness Lydia E.

"I had suh'ored for three years with terrible pains at the time of menstruation, and did not know what the
- trouble was until the elector pronounced it inflammation of the ovaries, and proposed an operation.
"I felt so weak and sick that I felt sure I could not survive the ordeal, and so I told him that I would not
KDderTO it. The foUowiiv week I read an advertisement' in the paper of your Vegetable Compound in such an

" Dear Mrs. Pixkham : I cannot thank you enough for what your Vegetable
Compound has done for me. If it had not been for your medicine, I think I would
have died.
"I will tell you how I suffered. I could hardly walk, was unable to sleep or eat.
Menstruation was irregular. At last I had to stay in my bed, and flowed so badly that
they sent for a doctor, who said I had inilammatiou of the ovaries, and must go
through an operation, as no medicine could help me, but 1 could not do that.
" I received a little book of yours, and after reading it I concluded to try Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and I am now a well woman. I shall praise
your medicine as long as I live, and also recommend the same to any one suffering as I
was." Mrs. Minnie Ottoson, Otho, Iowa. (June 9, 1901.)
Follow the record of this medicine, and remember that these thousands of
cures of women whose letters are constantly printed m uns paper were

Thousands of Sheep Perish.
Rawlins, Wyo., Feb. 10 The lees of
sheep on the Red Desert, where 500,000

The weather is the coldest whi. h has

HOVEL PRISON REFORM.
Italy Propose Compenantion for Men
Who Hare Been I'njuatly
Condemned.
A new criminal bill is about to be
discussed in Italy, and it is thought
in Rome that it will be passed. I
proposes to concede to those found
to have beetfi unjustly condemned to
prison an indemnity, to be decided
upon by the court, says a report to the
Chicago Tribune.
If the person has been in prison
through a re-al judicial rror the indem
nity will in some way correspond to
the financial los which he and his
family have sustained, while if he has
been condemned through the had faith
of a third person, through false testi
mony (for which, of course, the court
which condemned him is not respon
sible), the indemnity will be less, but
at leasthe w ill have the wherewithal to
begin life anew.
It has been proposed to indemnify
those living when the law passes who
have already been released from un
merited condemnations, or the families
of those who have died while undergo
ing unjust sentence.

Mfmm the Pride of the Pre
IBmperow.
Napolean's magic table ls one of
the greatest curiosities from the
time of the great emperor, who had it
in his study at the castle of St. Cloud.
After .'he death uf Muooleon it was
bought in London by Baron Rehau
sen, Swedish ambassador to the court
of St. James at that tiino. It is now
owned through inheritance by one
of the foremost families of the Swed
ish nobility, says the Strand Maga
zine. Inside the drawer of the table
is pasted an old slip on which is
printed a description, which in mod
ernized English reads as follows: "The
Emperor Napoleon was highly de
lighted with this extraordinary work
of art. It formed the surface of one
of the tables in his study, and was
always shown to all foreigners of dis
tinction who visited the imperial
court. It ia a painting whose resem
blance to what it. represents is the
most elusive ever produced by th
genius of man. One may look at this
strange production of art in differ
ent lights the pieces of money, the
fragments of broken glass, the pen
knife, water and cards retain an
equally illusive appearance as the ob
server moves round the table but it
requires a very minute examination
to discover all the truly magical won
ders U possesses." In these times
when relies of Napoleon I. are eager
ly sought for, the present where
abouts of this masterpiece should cer
tainly interest all connoisseurs.
SECOND-HAND FOOD BARRED.

Mast Not He Eaten by the
Poor of Paris.
"What is one man's meat is anothr's
poison" is a proverb just now borne
out in literal fact by the police raid
upon the arelquins of Paris, reports a
London paper.
The arelquins are the keepers of
small restaurants at the market, whose
s-upplies are provided from the broken
remains of repasts at different fash
ionable restaurants.
Tbe proprietor takes each morning
a tour of the fashionable quarters and
by paying a small amount to different
maitres d'hotel he has the privilege of
electing a menu for his- house from
What is left of a swell dinner the day
before. This he serves up to his cus
tomer for two cents and the latter
have the privilege of eating what the
aristocrats had set before them.
The elegance of the courses, how
ever, is outweighed by their unwhole
some effects. So many maladies are
laid at the door of these second-ban!
feasts that the police have undertaken
tx) protect the public stomach from pos
sible indiscretions. The arelquins will
soon be a picturesque feature of the
past, for as their licenses expire they
will fade from existence.
