Miss Agnes Miller, of Chicago, speaks to young women about clangers of the Menstrual Period how to avoid pain and suffering and remove the cause by using Lydia E, Pinkham's Vegetable Compound "To Young Womex: I suffered for six years -with dysmenor rhea (painful periods), so much so that I dreaded every month, as I knew it meant three or four days of intense pain. The doctor said this Avas due to an inflamed condition of the uterine appendages caused by repeated and neglected colds. "If young girls only realized how dangerous it is to take cold at this critical time, much suffering would be spared them. Thank God for Lydia E. Piiikliam's Vegetable Compound, that was the only medicine which helped me any. Within three weeks after I started to take it, I noticed a marked improvement in my general health, and at the time of my next monthly period the pain had diminished consider ably. I kept up the treatment, and was cured a month later. I am like another person since. I am in perfect health, my eyes are brighter, I have added 12 pounds to my weight, my color is good, and I feel light and happy." JUiss Agxes Miller, 25 Potomac Ave., Chicago, 111. The monthly sickness reflects the condition of a woman's health. Anything unusual at that time should have prompt and proper attention. Fifty thousand letters from women prove that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound regulates men struation and makes those periods painless.

Mont Interf(liiK nml Extrnnrrtlnnry l)lcoverj- In the IJisfoiry of I'al eatliiiun Exploration. A remarkable testimonial to the truth of liible lii.s1.ory has recently been idscovered in the Holy Land. Ac cording' to a most reliable authority, the house in which John the Hapt'st was born has been located, and a tablet found in it on which was written the name of John and his father, Zach arias. The method by which this interest ing and valuable discovery was made was a most unusual one, and perhaps the most extraordinary in the whole history of Palestinian exploration, says the New York World. About eight years ago a mosaic map was discovered ait Madaba, in the hilly country east of the Dead sea. This map, which dates from the fourth or fifth century, gives the names and loca tions of a number of places mentioned in the Xtnv Testament. A native Christian, seeing this map, noticed that one of the sites was named !'"th Znhar, which means "the house of Zacharias.' The common tradition before this time had been that the house of Zacharias was somewhere near Ain Karem, west of the city of Jerusalem. A party of archaelogists at once rec ognized the importance of the dis covery and set to work making exca vations on the site indicated by the Madaba map. A few days' work brought to view the mosaic pavement and foundation stones of a church, 'which was shown from the situation of the Ptones to have been n domed structure, as it was represented in the pictorial map. Mure than this, an inscription wn discovered on the pavement, which, when interpreted, was found to be the nanus John and ZachnriaR. This in scription removes all doubt in the mat ter and shows conclusively that the Madaba man was correct. The domed church, the ruins of which have been discovered, was very evidently a mem orial church built on the site of John the 7!api ist's birthplace. The place where the excavations have been made is 20 kilometres from Jerusalem and "In kilometers from He bron, lying to the right of the road that connects the two places. The domed church was situated near the point where 1he road crosses the river Ain ITarrub, whose waters Pon tius 1'ikite brought to Jerusalem. Tt appears to havn been a fair-sized build ing, 12 meters in length. The domed roof is significant in view of the fact that every other ancient building that has been excavated in the vicinity has a gable roof. The nam,1 given by the natives to the site was found in Ilerbat licit Shakkar, which means "the ruins of the house of Zacharias." The Hebrew word "Heth," meaning house, has been Arnbianized into "I'.eit," and "Zahar" has been changed by the same process into "Shakkar."

Slain Louis Gorsline has a peculiar and unique history. His name and picture have appeared in both state and na tional papers, and thousands of peo ple who have never seen him are fa miliar with the peculiar points in his life. And this notoriety was achieved, not in any deed of darii;. reckless ad venture or by ha'iitf preat wealth thrust upon him by frugal ancestors. In short he has been the greatest sparrow hunter in tlie state, the na tion, and. probably, in the world, says a recent report. Some years apro he was a trainman on the old Toledo & Ann Arbor rail road. He lost his right hand in an ac cident at M.-Iiain. and when he was able to work the company jjfave him a place as a fhigman. lie was restless to increase hi.- income, and began to hunt sparrows, receiving the bounty of two cents apiece then nrovidil lv cto4, law. He shot them and trapped them at odd ti:i:es until he found the work so profitable that he hired a man to do his work as flagman and gave his whole time to sparrow hunting. He afterwn rd used a preparnt ion in which he so;ked wheat and millet seed, and i wo or tnrce Kernels of tins was enough to make any sparrow his in a few min utes' time. In this way he would take thousands in a day. Mr. Gorsline says that he does not re member ever finding but one bird aside from the sparrows that had eaten the poisoned grain, and that other birds do not eat grain. He has caught the pests in nearly every county in the lower peninsula and ha? also worked in the upper peninsula. Over if 14.0W was paid to him by the state in bounties and nearly three-quarters of a million birds were killed by him in the five years he followed the work as a business. l'roTeeili of n I'onrt.

SEVERE ATTACKOF GRIP. Cured !y One ttotlle of t'hsimbcr luiii's Coiilt Jtctiicti) . "When I had no attack of the grip lust winter (tho second one) I aotuilly cured myself with one bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Earned y," says Frank VV. Perry, Editor of the Enterprise, Hhorteville, N. Y. "This is tbe honest truth. I at times kept from couching myself to pteoes by taking ft toaspoonful of this remedy, aud when the coaching spells would come at nih I would take a dose and it seemed thai: in tbe briefest interval the cough would pass off and I would go to sleep perfectly free from cough and its hocompanying pubis. To say that tb remedy acted as a most agreeable surprise ii putting it very mildly. I had no idea that it would or could knock out the crip, nmply bs caase I had never t;i"d it for suoh a pur pose, but it did, and it seemed with th second attack of coughing the remedy caused it to not only be of hs duration, but the pains were far less severe, and I had not used tho contents of one bottlo bottle before Mr. Grip hud bid me adieu."
