AN ALARMING STATEMENT
CONCERNING WOMEN.
HOW BAD HABITS ARB FORMED.
The New York Tribune savs : " The ti.Mi r
taking headache powders ' is increasing to an
alarming extent among a great number of wo
men throughout the country. These powders at
their name indicates, are claimed by the manu
facturers to be a positive and speedy cure for any
form of headache. In many cases their chief
ingredient is morphine, opium, cocaine or some
uiuci ct(uuy injurious arug naying a tendency
to deaden pain. The habit of taking them U
easily formed, but almost impossible to shake
off. Women usually begin taking them to re
lieve a raging headache and soon resort to the
powder to alleviate any little pain or ache thev
may be subjected to, and finally like the mor
phine or opium fiend, get into the habit of taking
them regularly, imagining that they are in pain
II they happen to miss their regular dose."
In nine cases out of ten, the trouble is
in the stomach and liver. Take a simple
laxative and liver tonic and remove the
offending matter which deranges the
stomach and causes the headache Dr

RUGER IS NEAR THE TOP.
Brilliant Career of the Mew Major Gen

Thomas Howard Ruger was a major
general of volunteers in 1864, but it has
cost him 30 years of faithful service to be
come a major general in the regular army.
He received his promotion as a result of
Major Goneral John M. Schofield's eleva
tion to the little used rank of lieutenant
general, which was recently rescued from
innocuous desuetude by congress. Gen
eral Ruger was born in Lima, N. Y.,
April S, 1833, and went to West Point In
1850. Upon his graduation, July 1, 1854,
he was commissioned brevet second lieu
tenant of engineers, but resigned a year
later, was admitted to the bar and prac
ticed law in Janesville, Wis., until 1861,
when he became lieutenant colonel of the
Third Wisconsin volunteers. He took
part in the operations in Maryland and
tho Shenandoah valley and after two
months' service became colonel of the reg

He participated In the battles of Win

Patchwork For Royalty.
An amusing episode occurred theother

Princess May to open a new town hall
which has just been erected at Rich

up a very old woman laden with an
enormous parcel pushed her way to the
front and refused to pay any attent'-n

however, she admitted that her object
was to present her wedding gift to the
royal couple. On inquiry this proved
to be a gigantic patchwork quilt of
worsted stockings for the Duke of York.
The old lady had made them and was
determined to present them herself. It
was, however, represented to her that
this was an unsuitable occasion, and she
retired with the intention of taking
them to White lodge. London Letter.

some real humor in It and which resulted
In a laugh for all hands was that which,
according to an Kngllsh newspaper, a cer
tain Mr. Krawskln endeavored to play up
on bis wire. This story is to the effect
that as Mr. Krewskln was going home one
day at noon be saw the wagon of a travel
ing photographer standing by the roadside.
"1 win stop and have a few pictures taken
just for fun," he mentally remarked, enter

looked his best. When the sittings were
over, the operator showed him a proof.

It to bis wife and told her it was a picture
of the "Wild Man of Borneo" that was on
exhibition at the town hall.
"You can't fool me." said his wife, exsm-
Inlng the picture critically. "I've seen the
wild Man of Borneo, and he's not half so
ugly and frightful looking as this."
