was at one time in alliance with the
powerful Egyptian King Amasis.
Owned by Many Nations.
Many of the most magnificent edi­
fices of ancient Samos were built dur­
ing Polycrates’ time. When he died
the prestige of the island began to
wane. It came successively under the
dominion of the Athenian Greeks, the
Romans, Bysantines, Arabians, Vene­
tians, Genoese and Turks. In the
Greek war of independence it took up
arms against Its Turkish masters. Aft­
er peace was declared It became an
autonomous principality, paying trib­
ute to Turkey, but being ruled by a
“prince of Samos,” who was a Greek
nominated by the sultan. In April of
1912, while the Tripolitan war was in
progress, two Italian warships entered
the harbor of Vathy and torpedoed the
Turkish "statlonalre,” which had been
kept there at the disposal of the prince.
During the Balkan war the garrison of
a few hundred Turks was compelled
by Cretan and Samian insurgents to
retire to the mainland, and at the close
of the war the Samians declared them­
selves in union with Greece.
The little town of Tlganl stands near
the harbor of the ancient city of Sa­
mos, where the immense moles con­
structed by Polycrates have been re-
built to some extent. The walls and
the celebrated underground aqueduct
are the chief remains of the ancient
capital. The former, which clamber
over the ridge in rear of the city,
look like a fragment of the wall of
China. Thirty of its towers still stand.
Considering the age in which it was
constructed, the aqueduct is a marvel
of engineering skill.
The Temple of Hera, of which a soli­
tary column alone remains standing
was one of the most magnificent edi­
fices of ancient times.
Even had Polycrates never ruled In
Samos the island would have been fa-
mous, for here was born the great
Samian sage, Pythagoras, he who never
smiled, and who always wore a white
robe and a golden crown.
CAT RODE OUT HURRICANE
Pet of Crew Was Carried Aloft In
Liner’s Sall and Buffeted
by Storm.
Members of the crew of the Anchor
liner California, which met Its end at
the hands of a German U-boat recently
told a thrilling yarn of a storm the ves­
sel passed through on a homeward
voyage from New York, says the Times
of that city. She left this port on No­
vember 11 with 145 passengers for
Glasgow and ran Into a gale three days
out which blew with hurricane force
and raised mountainous seas.
The
sailors said they had noticed that Tid-
dies, the ship’s cat, had seemed uneasy
for 24 hours before the California
struck the heavy weather, and spent
his time in the weather fore rigging
meowing plaintively In the wind’s eye.
One very heavy wave foiled over the
bridge and put the steering gear out
of commission. Three sailors were
knocked down trying to get aft to man
the hand gear, and the ship had to be
steered-for several hours with her twin
propellers until the steam steering
gear could be repaired by the engi­
neers. Another big sea carried away
a lifeboat on the port side and stove
in the side of the Marconi house, and
the wireless apparatus was put out of
commission.
The sailors managed to hoist the
forestaysail, which steadied the liner
a little so that the passengers were
able to get out on deck. Tiddies had
been hoisted accidentally In the fore-
staysail and could not get down .again
on account of the violence of the hur­
ricane. The cat, according to Ben
Fidd, the bo’sun’s mate, expressed such
dreadful things to the crew that they
could hear him above the shrieking of
the tempest
It was a fearsome sight, Fidd said,
to see the black cat clinging to the
wire stay with bis whiskers stiffened
by the breeze, and cursing the ele­
ments. Tiddies hung on until one of
the boys went up the fore rigging and
slid down the stay to rescue him, which
he accomplished safely, and was re­
warded with several big scratches.
"Intercepted Letters.”
In the letters of Lady Bessborough,
a clever Englishwoman of Napoleonic
times, a story is told of a famous docu­
ment called the "Intercepted Letter,”
a state paper captured by the French
from the English.
One phrase In this letter, “obstinate
fools,” was rendered by the French
translater “des Gentilhommes decides.”
This translation was ridiculed by
William Pitt in conversation with the
duke of Devonshire. The latter wit­
tily responded : “It Is not so ill done;

Could Hardly Get Off Her Bed.
Cincinnati. Ohio.—“I want you to know the good Lydia E. Pink­
ham’s Vegetable Compound has done for me. I was in such bad
health from female troubles that I could hardly get off my bed. I
had been doctoring for a long time and my mother said,‘I want you
to try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.' So I did, and it
has certainly made me a well woman. I am able to do my house work
and am so happy as I never expected to go around the way I do again,
and I want others to know what Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound has done for me.”—Mrs. J osie CoPNER, 1668 Harrison Ave,

For Forty Years Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound has Relieved
the Sufferings of Women.
It hardly seems possible that there is a woman in this
country who continues to suffer without giving Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound a trial after al! the evi­
dence that is continually being published, proving beyond
contradiction that this grand old medicine has relieved
more suffering among women than any other medicine in
the world.
Mrs. Kieso Cured After Seven Month’s Illness.
Aurora, Ill.—“For seven long months I suffered
from a female trouble, with severe pains in my back
and sides until I became so weak I could hardly
walk from chair to chair, and got so nervous I
would jump at the slightest noise. I was entire J
unfit to do my house work, I was giving up hope of
ever being well, when my sister asked me to try
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. I took
six bottles and today I am a healthy woman able to
do my own housework. I wish every suffering
woman would try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound, and find out for herself how good
it is. —MRS. NARL A. K ieso , 596 North Ave., Aurora, III.
