IN DAYS OF OUR FOREFATHERS Women Prepared Their Own Medicinet The wise pioneer women learned to father, In woods and fields, the reme dies the Indians used. From the rafter ot colonial houses, hung great bunchei ot dried rooti and herbs. From those. In times ot sickness, the busy mother brewed simple and powerful remedies. From roots and herbs, L y d 1 a B. Plnkham.a descend' ant ot these sturdy pioneers, made her Vegetable Compound. The beneficial effects of this dependable medicine are Touched for by hundreds ot women. Mrs. Wm. Kraft of 2S3S Vlnewood Are., Detroit, Mich., saw a Ptnkham ad rertlsement in the "News" one day and made up her mind that she would glre the Compound a trial. At that time she was Tory weak. 'After the first bot tle," she writes, "I began to feel better and like a new woman after taking six bottles. I recommend It to others and always keep a bottle In the house." Mrs. Oust Green of 401 Lincoln Park Boulevard, Rockford, Illinois, found herself In a condition similar to that of Mrs. Kraft. "I waa weak and run down," she writes, "but the Vegetable Compound has helped me and I feel tetter bow. I recommend It to all .women who need mora strength," Justice) for Goldenrod The goldenrod was once popular, and loved by the poets, but was later banned because of the accusation that It was the cause of hay fever. Now rumors Indicate that Justice Is about to bo done and the goldenrod restored to Its old place In popular favor. The ragweed, and not the goldenrod. Is now thought to be the offender. There arc 87 varieties of the goldenrod and some of these varieties may be found tn nearly every state In the Union. Thus goldenrod lovers will welcome Its restoration.

CHAPTER I Continued 2 t had forgotten my surroundings, forgotten the dingy cobbles of Mincing lane, forgotten the strange circum stances under which I had met this strange person who seemed so Ulti mately versed In my family history. I lived over again the brave days at Foxcroft when Charles had been mas ter and I hia lieutenant. Rut the mo ment passed, the memories faded, snd my eyes saw again the drab buildings of the alley and the odd figure of my deliverer whom I had first delivered. "And you, air," I said. "May I ask how It happens you know so much con cerning the fortunes of a plain Dorset family r lie seemed not to hear me, standing there In a brown study, and I spoke to him again sharply. "Tea, yes, I heard." he answered, al most Impatiently. "I waa But this Is no place for discussion. Come with me to my house." 8me trace ot my feelings must have been revealed In my attitude my face he could not have seen In the darkness for he continued: "Ton need not fear me. Master Or merod. I mean you no harm. I could not do harm to your father's son." "But your I asked. "Who are you. slrr Ho chuckled dryly. "Ton know my name," he answered, "and you heard the watch acknowl edge my civic dignity. For the rest If you have spent much time In Dorset yon should know a Dorset voice." "I do that," I assented heartily, "and 'tis grateful to my ears." "Then be content with that, sir, for few minutes. Come, let us be on our wsy. I have reasons for not wishing to Invite a second attack upon us." Ho set off at a great pace, his head burled In his cloak collar, and I walked beside him, puzzled exceed ingly. Ten mlnntes later we stopped before a tall, gabled bouse of brick and tim ber on the near side of Holborn. My companion produced key from his person and unlocked heavy door which opened upon a staircase leading to the second story. The first floor was occupied by shop. "Enter, Master Ormerod." said Jug gins. "Tou are right welcome. I hope you have none of the country gentle man's scorn for the borne of an honest merchant" "A beggar must not be chooser," I answered. "But If I were not Indebt ed to you for my liberty I should still be glad to visit a Dorset man who knows bow to fight and who remem bers the woods of Foxcroft "Well spoken," applauded Juggins as he fastened the door behind os. "8o I might hare expected your fa ther's son to speak." "That Is the second time you have called me my father's son,'" I ssld. "Prithee, Msster Juggins, had you ac quaintance with my father?" "Bide, bide." he replied enigmat ically. "We shall settle all that anno. After yon, air." And he ushered me up the stairs, which were hung with the skins nf many kinds of snlmals, some of which I did not even know. The stairs gave upon large hall, similarly decorated, and through this we passed Into a com fortable chamber which stretched across the front of the house. Master Juggins relieved me of my cloak and hat and motioned to a deep chair in front of the fire. "Best yourself, Master Ormerod. Presently we shall have provender for the Inner man as well. Ho, Goody I Art ahed, after allT "Abed? Ahed?" answered a thin, old voice that was Inexpressibly sweet with a Dorset burr that mnde Master Robert's soun4 like the twang of a Londoner. "Abed? says lie. When did I ever feel the sheets, and not know ing he was warm and safe and his posset-cup where It belongs which Is In tits stouiach? Abed I Didst ever find" She atepped Into the room, a quaint little figure In hodden-grat a .dulnty cap perched on her wispy white hnlr, her brown eyes gleaming In the candle light the criss-crossed wrinkles nf her cheeks shining like a network of fine lace. In her hands she held a tray supporting a steaming flagon and di vers covered dishes of pewtnrware. Juggins favored me with humor ous glance. "Sure, I grow more troublesome year by year, granny," he ssld as she paused at sight of me. "Here I am eome home luter than ever, bringing a guest with me. Who think you he Is?" She looked at us Inquiringly. " TIs Master Ormerod." "Ormerod? Not" Aye! Mnster Harry." "But he Is In France I" Nay ha Is here." Bh drew closer, and studied my fea tures nnder the candles that shone from the mantel shelf. "Is he In danger?" she asked breath lessly, "The watch weie after hlin when he came to my rescue," replied Juggins. "Yet he came." , She patted my cheek with her hand. "That was a deed which you need never be ashamed of, Master Ormerod, and you shall win free to safety, what ever It may be or wherever, If Hubert and I have any wits between us. Sit yourself down, Master Ormerod, and you shall have a draft of mulled ale and a dish of deviled bones and there afterward a bed with sheets that have lain tn Dorset lavender. Hatb It welcome sound to you?" The tears came Into my eyes. "I am happier this night than I have been any time since Charles and t left Foxcroft," I said. "But pray tetl me why you two, who are strangers to me, should be so Interested In an out cast?" "He does not know?" exclaimed the little old Indy. "I have told htm nothing," said Jug gins, smiling. "Well, tis time he knew he was amongst the right sort ot friends," the little lady snld. "Too are too young. Master Ormerod, to remember old Pe ter Juggins" A light hurst upon my addled wife. "Why, of coursel" I cried. ?IIe waa steward under my father, and tn hla father's time before him I But your "Peter waa my husband," aha aatd simply. "Robert here Is our grand son. When Peter died your father of fered his place tn Hubert Robert would hare bone of It He had the 5rrWl 'j PRESENT J00 wandering bee In hla bonnet He was young, and he must see the world. He would mske his fortune, too. No life ss sn estate steward for him." "And wise I was, too, granny," Inter Jerted Master Juggins. "Even yon will grant thst now "Be not too elevated hy your good fortune." she retorted. "Had you fol lowed your grandfather at Foxcroft your counsel might have restrained Master Harry and hla brother from their madness" "I wish It might have." t said bit terly, thinking of Charles' lonely grave on a mist-draped hillside la the Scotch highlands. "Many a gentleman would have taken In bad part such sn answer to an offer made In kindness, Master Or merod. But not your father. No, after trying ail he could by fair means to dissuade Robert from his course, he ssked where his fancies drifted, snd then supplied him with money for the voysge to the Western Plantations and to enable hlin to secure a start Twss that permitted Robert to go overseas and to set himself np as a fur-trader there and afterward to re turn and establish his business down stairs, which hath grown so that It Is more than he can handle. All of It, I say, we owe to you." "All of It, granny," reaffirmed Mas ter Jugglna himself. "Y'hsve not msde It one whit too strong for me. But I would find out before we sleep how I may be of aid to Master Ormerod." "Aid?" quoth she. "All thst we hsve In the world Is his. If he wants It ; aye, the clothes off our bscks. Good night to you. Master Ormerod. And remember, this house, poor though It be for your father's son, Is to he your home until you have a better." I rose and bowed my acknowledg ments, but I could not ape.uk. My heart was too full. Here In this bleak, unfriendly London, which had greeted me with suspicion and perse cution, I had found friendship and as sistance. It wns almost too good to believe. "I have no claim upon you, Master Timber, Sound, Though Furniture made from oak used by the Romans more than 1,800 years ago In the construction of sn em bankment for the Thames Is shortly to be added to the historic treasures of the Mansion house, says the Lon don Mall. The timber, discovered during exca vations behind King William street E. C, Is In good condition, although It has been burled for centuries. It Is In the possession of Mr. Thomas 3. Edwards, a member of the London and Middlesex archenloglcnl society, who, with other experts, Is satisfied that the find Is port of tin Juggins," I exclaimed as the dew closed behind his grandmother. "Be member that. And let me not Imperil for one moment two friends of my father, who revere his memory as I had not supposed sny did, save myself." He pushed me down Into my chair by the fire. 'There la no question of claim, sir TIs a privilege. Do you tell me now of your present plight Fear not to be frank with me, Muster Ormerod. I do not mtx In politics. I am none of your red-hot loyalists who would hang a man because he remarks that our worthy king Is a Hanoverian hy birth. But on the other hand I'll have naught to do with these plotters who fume over the exiled Btuarts. 'The Stuurts went, sir, because they overtaxed the forbenrunce of a long suffering people. They might have re turned ere this, aa you know, had they possessed the good sense tn appreciate what their whilom people required. But they lacked that good sens, Mas ter Ormerod, and with all deference I say to you they will never return un less they learn that lesson very soon." I leaned forward I t my chair and Interrupted him, the worda bubbling from my lips," "I could not have pot neater my own feelings. Master Jugglna. When I was a lad not yet of age I risked all I had for the Stuart cause. What came of It? A life of exile that might have ruined me, aa It hns many a bet ter man. My famlly'a estate was e questrated; my outlawry waa pro claimed. I have no place to lay my head, save It be by the bouuty of a foreigner. "Have I secured sny moral satis faction by these sacrifices? At first I thought I had. But when I looked closer I found that I had done nothing for my country. .For the Stuarts, yes. But for my country, nothing. "This msde me think the herder, Msster Juggins. At the beginning I had taken sest In the plots and plana which were aimed to bring aboit hla restoration to power, "But the longer I atudled them the more Insincere they became. I found my leader a ratapaw of foreigners, nsed to undermine Englsnd's prestige. Ills alms were not the good of Eng land, but his own sggraodlsement the furthering of France's ambitions." "Hast learned that, lad? Why. then, there's no more loysl Englishman la London 1" "So you think," I answered. "Ho 1 think. But hear me out I told my feelings to a certain great gentleman who handles affairs at 8t Germain. He cursed me for a turncoat would have ordered his lackeys to Dog me from the palace. I left him In die grarw. The doors of my friends were closed to me. I thought I would mske my wsy to England and begin a new life. "So I applied to the English amhas ssdor for a passport He laughed at me. Did I think he was so Innocent ss to be blinded by such transparent trickery? Nay, the Btuarte must seek otherwhere for means to plant a fresh spy In Kngland. In desieratlon then I bought passage from a smuggler of Dlrpe. who landed me three weeks since In Sussex. I msde my wsy to Dorset hoping to find old friends who would help me to gain a pardon; bat I was recognized by one of my cousins who now hold Foxcroft house, and be raised a hue and cry after me, fearing no doubt that I sought to regain ths estate. "Since then I hsve been hunted like a beast My Isst shilling wss spent this morning. Tomorrow, hsd I escaped so long, I planned to sell my sword, and If all else failed to seek a press-gang." "Let os thsnk God yon heard say cries," aald Juggins esmestly. "I do," I said, "and with no lark of reverence, my frlaud, I also thaak yon." He gave me a keen look. "Ton call me friend. Do yon mean the word?" "Why notr "I waa your father's servsnV he said, and he aald It so that the words were at once proud and humble. I caught his hand In mine. "Tou were his friend, too; and who am I, an outlaw without name or for tune, to aet myself above a man who has prospered like yon through tha diligence of his own handa and brains?" Master Juggins drew a deep breath and wrung my hand hard. "Ton'll do. lad." he said. "My help would have been yours on any terms. But you hsve made It a glad privilege for me to help you. Doubt not we ahall find a way. "Now get you to bed. I shall have somewhat to say to yon on the mor row." Ths part played by the Inex haustible riches of the Amerlesn colonise In the machinations of European polities comes as a revelation to Ormerod. (TO BB CONTINUED ) Buried for Centuries first embankment built by tha Ro mans.

Natural Quettion There are two sides te story," "Are you stlU single f vary THE WORLD'S GREATEVENTS ALDERT PAYSON TERHUNB tit) ay IMild, Meed Cempenir.) Th Borgia TURKIC people sat In sn upper room of a gorgeous Roman palace one night In UttZ Ths eldest of the trio was a singularly beautiful woman of perhaps forty. She was Rosa Vanossl, the fairest Italian of her day. The room's two other occupants were her son and daughter, Uesare and Luvreala Borgia. They were swatting the air nul that should announce the election of Itodrlgo Borgia, father of tar and Lucrezla, aa pope. Italy, In the Fifteenth century, was spilt up Into numerous petty king doms, principalities snd duchies, mora or less Independent of one another, yet all subject to the aptrlluiif author ity of Rome. The pope, too, held raat possessions, territories and armed forces. There waa little coalition throughout central and eastern Eu rope. Italy and Germany were hilt of niluor ststes; Russia waa slowly tak ing shape at an Independent and unit ed nation ; the former Western empire was but a name, and the Eastern em pire was a thing of the past Spain's great powers, Castile and Aragon, were Just uniting under Ferdinand and Isabella; Franco waa recovering from the successive beatings England bad given her, though much of ber territory waa still In Itrittsh hands; Crest Brltstn wss not ss now, on nation, for wars with Scotland still re curred at Interval. Tbua II may be seen thst nearly all Europe waa torn by dissensions and lack of coalition. Yet a brighter day waa dawning. In 14"8 the Turks crushed the Eastern empire by rapturing Constsntlnople, thus slso ending the vsgue dream of re-establishing the old Western em pire. This dream bad Impeded Italy's progress and obstructed Germany's consolidation. Now that It was a thing of the past, these and other na tions were enabled to settls down and turn their thoughts to progress. Hence, during the latter bait of tha Fifteenth century, dawned the era known aa the Renaissance (or re birth). It wss the transition period between the Middle sges and modern times. And In this transition Rodrigo Borgia unconsciously played a strong port Borgia wss elected pope, taking the title Alexander VI. In UK (tbe year Columbua discovered America). Like Richard HI and many another scoun drel, bs msde a Just and wise temporal ruler. He was a man of most abandoned personal character. Through tha fa vor of hla uncle, Pope Callxtus III. he had in early life risen high In the church. Now, on mounting the papal chair, one of hla first acts was to mske his eighteen year-old son, Ce sar, a cardinal. He also married hla daughter, Lucrezla, to the son of a neighboring prince. Soon after aba aaw a chance to make a better mar riage, so poisoned her husband, as she Is slso credited with poisoning one or more of his successors. Gio vanni, the aew pope's eldest son, waa created a duke. Craare Borgia, pre ferring that rank to a cardlnalahlp, murdered Olovannl and left the church for a military career. Within a very few years, by battle, diplo macy and cold blooded murder, Oeoare had conquered for himself a large part of Italy, and undoubtedly planned to make himself temporal ruler (as his fsther wss the spiritual lord) of the entire nation. Hla cruelties, crimes end excesses ret Italy aghast, but his fsther, wbe waa completely under the young man's Influence, refused to punish ot to any way check htm. Charles VIII, king of France, caat envying ayes on the rich little king dom of Nsples snd led an army across the Alps to annex It to his own do minions. Pope Alexander barred his wsy, and at last, by bribes, diplomacy and open force (combined with a fatal contagion that ravaged the French army), drove hlin back. By l.Fi03 the plans of Pops Alex ander aod Cesara Borgia were so fsr complete that the latter was about to be crowned king of Horns gn a, as an Important step tn his plan of ruling Italy, when fate Intervened In a most dramatic fashion. Several cardinals who hsd offended the pope were In vited by him to supper. Poisoned wins flasks were prepared for them by Alexander. Through a servant's mis take one of the poisoned flagons was set before the pope and Cessre. The former waa killed and the latter made danfrously 111 by the noxious draught Oesare Borgia afterwards told Nlcrolo Macchlsvelll, the wily Florentine dip lomat and writer! "I had prepared to meet every emergency except tha simultaneous disabling of my father snd myself." As It was, Cesare's enemies gained Instant control of the sltustlon. Ths ambitious youth wss overthrown and hla golden plsns crumbled to dust A few yesrs later he died, fighting, In exile. The Borglao dream of spiritual and temporal empire was forever at an end. Through Alexander's degradation of the holy papal office a revulsion of feeling set In, Temporal power, abused, reacted In the throwing off of the fetters that had for centnrles helped to hold back tha nations from progress. The wsy wss paved for a return to the original sacred purpose of the papacy. The political wrongs of (he system, reaching tli';lr acme under Borgia, died down, leaving room for betterment of both church and state.
