Th crown of womanhood i9 motherhood.
But s';.-ffy lies the Lead that wears the
crown or anticipates this coronation, when
thv is a lack of womanly strength to bear
the btndens of maternal dignity and duty.
Tin.- reason why so uuny women sink under
tlie Mrain of m otherhood is because they
are unprepared.
"I unhesitatingly advise expectant moth
ers to use Dr. Tierce's Favorite Prescrip
tion, "writes Mrs. J.W. G. Stephens, of Mila,
Northumberland Co., Va. The reason for
this advice is that Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre
scription is the best preparative for the
maternal function. No matter how healthy
and strong a woman may be, she cannot
use '' Favorite Prescription " as a prepara
tive for mnternity without gain of health
and comfort. But it is the women who are
not strong who best appreciate the great
benefits received from the use of "Favorite
1 i-sciij;tioti." For one thing its use makes
the baby's advent practically painless. It
has in many cases reduced day of suffer
ing to a few brief hours. It has changed
the period of anxiety and struggle into a
time of ease and comfort.
The proprietors and makers of Doctor
Pierce's Favorite Prescription now feel
fully warranted in offering to pay $500 for
any case of I.eucorrhca, Female Weakness,
rrolapsus, or Falling of Womb, which they
cannot cure. All the World's Dispensary
Medical Association, Proprietors, of Buf
falo, N. Y., ask is a fair and reasonable
trial of their means of cure.
Que or Graveyard.
A steamship filled with bones ar
rived at Mew York. The bones were
rha Ri.-piptnns of cattle gathered on
tuts feioai plains of South America.
They are shipped here to ba ground
Into fertilizers. The longshoremen
find in nearly every cargo a human
bone all that Is left of some poor fel
low who died on '.he plains. They are
responsible for a queer little grave
yard near the ffcitilizinK plant. The
workmen have strict orders never to
grind up a human bone. It is taken
out to a little fenced graveyard and
buried. Many "of the graves are not
more than two feet long, but they ara
as carefully covered as though they
contained entire skeletons. N. Y.

"Why. last night he fretted and fumed,

THE HABIT
i U nt Say
OF DREAMING.
cuuudiuu Miner round a Monstrous Lump
of rreeioun Metal.
A prospecting miner returning-, wor
ried and disgusted, from an unsuct-essf u 1
season, stumbled across a bowlder so
rich in gold that in an instant he is 11
millionaire, says the New York Jour
nal. It reads like a fairy tale, but it
happens to be true.
There is satisfactory evidence of Hie
truth of Martin Xeilly's wonderful find.
It was on Monday, April 27, that Neiliy
was returning- to liossland, 1?. C, after
in unsuccessful prospecting1 trip in tbe
Salmon river district. He bad reached
the Columbia river at a point six mi i s
north of Trail Landing-, 15. C. at about
noon, and, selecting' a site on the b.tnl
of the stream, at the foot of Lookout
mountain, sat down to eat his dinner
As he. munched his humble food ho
noticed a hug-e bowlder, half buried in
the sand, in a dry portion of the river
bed, not far from where he sat.
When he had finished his meal he
walked over to the boulder, examining
it in a casual manner, and then, as his
experienced eye detected signs of the
precious metal for whieh he had vainly
sought for months, he attacked the
great gray mass with his pick, working
with feverish energ-y. He almos;
swooned when a fragment of rock eanu
away, showing- distinctly the traces of
gold and copper.
"I am rich," he shouted. Then lie
proceeded to take specimens of the ore
from a dozen places on the bowlder
staked, out his claim, hurried into Ross
land, arriving late in the afternoon.and
recorded the claim. The next day he
had his specimens assayed by different
experts, who found that the ore ran in
value all the way from four to fifty
eight dollars to the ton.
When he told of his great fortune
there was a wild rush to the plae?. A
.surveyor accompr.r in ?-riiy to his
bonanza, and, after making measure
ments, declared that the bowldej
weighed approximate!;' 20,000 tons, and
that, m round numbers, it will prove to
be worth $1,000,000.
FOLDING KITES.
A Novelty from France That Closes Like
an Umbrella.
A novelty from Franc is a folding
kite. Folded up it looks somewhat like
a small rolled-up umbrella ; opened out
ready to fly its shape is like that of the
kite commonly known as the bow kite.
It has a single upright stick, which is
.10 inches in length. The bow is formed
of two light steel ribs, one on either
side of the stick, which are raised into
place and bowed into form, as the ribs
of an umbrella are raised; there are
braces running from the ribs to a metal 1
band which slides on the stick, like the
sliding ferrule on the handle of an um
brella; when the bow is raised and in
place it is held there by turning a little
metal button attached to the kilo .-ttit-i:
under the band to which tbe braces are
attached. As the ribs are raised their
inner ends, where they meet at the
stick, near the top, bow up into a light
metal holder which projects slightly on
either side of the stick and wh'ch holds
the two parts of the bow in line.
The kite is covered with light muslin;
they are used in covering the kites
muslins of various colors, so that some
of the kites are red, some blue, and so
on. The tail is of .string with little
parti-colored bunches of muslin cut
tings attached along its length, as lit
tle bunches of pn per are sometimes at
tached to string kite tails; at the end
there Ls a little bag in which may be
placed a marble or other weight, i 1 more
ballast is required, in a high wind.
A tornado which swept through

Keeny, a wealthy bachelor, about

on the table and Mrs. Keeny falls
heir to his large estate.
Medford will be the first town in

worth in the Medford & Crater Lake

Medford during the past week.

The fullest examination into the na
ture and origin of dreams has been made
l.y M. Monau, the French scientist.
He divides dreams into the dreams of
h-.a!ii and t.he reams that are the re
sult of the diseased state of the mind
Tr body. In regard to the latter it need
lily be remarked that persistent drtam
iig is one of the most invariable symp
toms of insanity, and it is a psycholog
ical fact if genius is near allied to mad
m : x, .T'Tilus i:.'!-t be expected to dream
more than ordinary men. With regard
to the dreams of health, tLey arc the re
sult of an imperfect state of conscious
ness or an imjjcrfeet state of sleep, ac
cording as we look at it. It is o jvious
that the mind of the clever man, that is
constantly occupied with many schemes
mid thoughts, is more liable to be awake
w hen his body is asleep than that of the
Milliard, whose mind ia often asleep
when his bdy is awake. Thus the
leep of the plow boy has become pro
verbial on account of its undisturbed
nature. In most cases a man of lively
imagination aod quick brain is undoubt
ey more iiabie to dream than the j
dullard.

Glenn Harrison, aed 13 years, says the
Kansas City Journal. Glenn is the old
est son of Guy T. Harrison, a lawyer.
He completed the course of study of
the Gainesville pubu; schools in March,
1902. The same month he took the ex
amination given candidates for third
grade teachers' certificates in Ozark
county, making a good average and se
curing a ciuu(.d.c. lit continued to
study, and just after he Lciame 13 years
old he took the txaminvJon for a sec
ond grade certificate. This time his av
erage grade was the highest made, being
96 per cent. Mr. Harrison bclievtd his
promising son was too jouDg to teach,
and refused to let hhn accept several
offers. But one day when hie lather was
absent attending court, Gknn took the
job of teacher of a rural district, the di
rectors of which came and offered him
the place. He began work before his
father returned, and the latter, finding
him so ambitious, decided not to inter
fere. Glenn now haa 29 pupils. The ma
jority are larger and older than he, hot
he maintains a degree of discipline which
many older and more experienced teach
ers may well envy. "How are you get
ting along, Glenn?" aaktd bit mother
one day, when he came home at the end
of a week's work. "I had to whip sev
eral of the boys," the youngster replied.
It turned out that among others he had
larruped an obstreperous youth that
weighed 180 pounds. Glenn doesn't
weigh much more than half that
