THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.
What suffiring frequently results
from a motler's ignorance; or more
frequently from a mother's neglect to
properly instruct her daughter !
Tradition says "woman must suf
fer," and young women are so taught.
There is a little truth and a great deal
of exaggeration in this. If a young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment, and her mother should see
that she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to a physician for examina
tion; but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or I
herself to Mrs. l'inkham and secure
the most elicient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address is
Lynn, Mass.
1bPS
Mrs. August Pfalzgraf, of South
Byron, Wis., mother of the young lady
whose portrait we here publish, wrote
Mrs. Pinkham in January, 1899, saying
her daughter had suffered for two
years with irregular menstruation-
ad headache all the time, and pain in
her side, feet swell, and was generally a
miserable. Mrs. Pinkham promptly
replied with advice, and under date of
March, 1499, the mother writes again
that Lydia E. l'inkham's Vegetable
Compound cured her daughter of all
pains and Isregularity.
Nothing in the world equals Mrs.
Pinkham's great medicine for regu
lating woman's peculiar monthly
troubles.

W IIENEVER the air is filled

ruler, the Ameer, the death of whom
is popularly believed to be the one
thing which will break the armed

the two great nations now so hungrily
looking toward Afghanistan, writes
'John T. McCutcheon, in the Chicago
I ecord. %
There has existed for a long time
down in India a belief that the
Ameer's death would leave Afghanis

land, and that there will be an inevi
table rush from both sides of the Lor
dcr to seize the territory.
About fourteen miles to the east

Pass is the wonderful city of Pesha

Asian city as Kabul or Bokhara. in
the old days the Indus marked the di
viding lines between the Indian races
and the Afghan or central Asian
truies and at that time Peshawur was
well within the territory and influ
enices of Afghanistan. Even now the
cily it;clf retains all its old character
istcs and is still an almost unknown
towin.
The British cantonments are two

a beautiful, well-kept town. No white

men who enter the walls of Peshawur
in a month's time.
A big wall about fifty feet high sur
rounds the city, at one end of which is
a gigantic fortress, where a garrison
of British soldiers is stationed. Can
nons are constantly trained down on
the town, for there is always danger of
an outbreak among the 200,(%00 Afridis
and Afghans who combine to make up
its seething, squalid population. White
civilians are cautioned against enter
ing the city without an escort, and
no one is permitted to enter its gates
at nightlall. The British soldiers and
otlicer's seldom go into the town.
The Peshawur cantonments are
pleasant and pretty. Broad, shady
streets, the inevitable mall, a cricket
ground iand race course were essential
features of the town. Officers' bunga

ground, at the edge of which are the
r;arneks for Tommty. Everywhere are
sidlndid slnde trees, which have
sprung up in the arid plains as a re
suit of irrigation and wells, and which
make the cantonments look like an
oasis in a dlesert. There are many
plretty English girls in Peshawur in
the winter, for the fresh coolness of
that northern la:titude gives a keen

REVEALED THE COAL'S VIRTUES.
DObahah Gore Baid to Be the First to
Use the Black Diamonds.
There are a number of stories as to
the way in which the value of coal
was first discovered, and the Buffalo
Express adds to the number by print
ing in a recent number the picture of
Obadiah Gore, who, it is claimed, was
(The first man who made use of anthra

the first man to make use of anthra
cite coal.
Obadiah Gore and his brother Dan
iel, says the Express, discovered that
anthracite coal would burn; conse
quently they made known its value.
Obadiah served in th2 army of Wash
ington from the beginning of the Rev
olutionary War, and lived after the
war in Sheshequin, Bradford County,
Penn., where he was judge of the local
court for some years.
Daniel Gore had a farm and dwell
ing three miles north of Wilkesbarre.
On a farm adjoining his to the north
was a bed of rock, which came to the
surface. A question arose as to whether
it was a form of coal. It was tried in
fireplaces on wood fires and failed to
be of use. Daniel Gore experimented
with it in the blacksmith's forge and
established the possibility of its com
bustibility.
It should be remembered that black
smithing was an important industry
in the early days of the settlement of
this country. The local blacksmith
of the Wyoming Valley was no excep
tion to rule. Implements of farming,
also fixtures of houses, such as hinges,
door handles and latches, nails, etc.,
together with kitchen utensils, and
irons, cranes, hooks and trammels,
such as were then in use, were made
in the blacksmith shop.
The Gore family in question, when
the American colonies revolted against
the tyranny of England, proved them
selves sturdy patriots and defenders
of their country's cause.
The Oyster Girls of Arcachon.
There is a quaint little town in
France where women do a great share
in the natural industry of the place,
and though no claim is made for them
as advanced women, they wear male
attire when pursuing their trade. Ar
cachon is the name of this little French
village, and it lies on an inlet of the
Golfe de Gascoigne, not far from Bor
deaux. It consists of two towns, and
is said to be unique of its kind. The
one situated on the shore, with its
shops, markets and streets, is the sum
mer, or Ville d'Ete, the winter town,
or Ville d'Hiver, nestling cosily above
amidst far extending pine forests on
sandy hills or dunes. With the excep
i F 'I

tion of two hotels, the Ville d'Hiver is
composed of about 300 independent
villas, standing amidst their own gar
dens, the pines being all around. The
avenues are laid out serpentine fash
ion, to avoid air currents; nothing but
low hedges or light fences separate
the different gardens. Neither ter
rages of houses are tolerated, nor
shops, the result being quite park-like,
and the eye, even in full winter, is re
freshed by living masses of green.
From the heights one gets a line view
of the Vllle d'Ete, the fishing boats
and "Oyster Park."
Here the oyster girls follow their
trade. When the boats come in they
work on the floats near the shore, and
present a picturesque appearance in
their knickerbockers, big hats and sa
bots. The accompanying picture
shows them as recently photographed.

W. - Stewart Wise, a fancier and
treeder of chickens highest in the art
if laying eggs fit for a king, made a
liscovery the other day. He had been
toasting about the quality and fresh
iess of the eggs he sold from his hen
tery. Benjamin C. Bayne gave Mr.

plucked from the nest was recorded
Ipon it. This gave Mr. Bayne a proof

on and eggs were served, but there
seemed to be something in the cools

al that a number of his best chickens had
been afflicted with colds. He had had

k- THE "WHITE DEATH."
ry Remarkable Mist in the RockSie Which
of Orften Proves Fatal.
Of all the natural phenomena pe
cp euliar to the Rocky Mountain :egion
, none is more strange or terrible than
s. the mysterious storm known to the In
c", dians as "the white death." Scientific
d- men have never yet had an opportun
is, sty of investigating it, because it
de comes at the most unexpected times
and may keep away from a certain lo
en cality for years. Well-read men who
st have been through it say that it is
1- really a frozen fog. But where the
rs fog comes from is more than any one
can say. This phenomenon occurs
most frequently in the northern part
of Colorado, in Wyoming and occa
in sionally in Montana. About two years
re ago a party of three women and two
e, men were crossing North Park in a
wagon in the month of February.
le The air was bitterly cold, but dry as
a bone and motionless. The sun shone
ch with almost startling brilliancy. As
he the five people drove along over the
crisp snow they did not experience the
ad least cold, but really felt most com
fe fortable, and rather enjoyed the trip.
Mountain peaks fifty miles away could
be seen as distinctly as the pine trees
u by the roadside. Suddenly one of the
n, women put her hand up to her face
e and remarked that something had
n stung her. Then other members of
- the party did the same thing, although
there was not an insect in sight. All
marvelled greatly at this. A moment
later they noticed that the distant
mountains were disappearing behind
a cloud of mist. Mist in Colorado in
February? Surely there must be some
mistake. But there was no mistake,
because within ten minutes a gentle
wind began to blow, and the air be
came filled with fine particles of some
thing that scintillated like diamond
dust in the sunshine. Still the peo
ple drove on until they came to a
cabin where a man signalled them to
stop. With his head tied up in a
bundle of mufflers, he rushed out and
handed the driver a piece of paper on
which was written: "Come into the
house quick, or this storm will hkil
all of you. Don't talk outside here.o"
Of course no time was lost in getting
under cover and putting the horses in
the stables. But they were a little
late, for in less than an hour the
whole party was sick with violent
coughs and fever. Before the next
morning one of the women died with
all the symptomrs of pneumonia, The
others were violently ill of it, but
managed to pull through after long
sickness.

one of my flower beds is a colony of
small red ants that are extremely in
dustrious in collecting food, and they
frequently perform the most astonish
ing engineering feats in transporting
heavy burdens to their homes. Not
long ago I watched a party of about
a dozen that had found the body of a
small spider, and were dragging it
toward the nest. The spider had
hairy legs, which struck out in every
direction and caught on obstacles,
greatly rctarding progress. For ser
eral minutes the ants rolled away with
their awkward booty, and then stopped
and seemed to hold a council. A min
ute fragment of dry leaf was lying on
the ground; presently they all laid
hold and pulled the spider on top of
it. They then seized the edges and
slid it along without difficulty. On an
other occasion I saw a large body of
these same ants start out for a raid on
another colony. They marched like an
army, with scouts thrown out at the
sides, and, when several feet distant
from the nest, divided into two parties.
One kept straight on and was soon
engaged in fierce combat with the oth
er tribe, while the second detachment
made a detour and fell upon the hill
from the rear. The result was a great
victory for the invaders. Anybody
that feels interested in the subject and
that will put in a little time at close
study, will be certain to witness ex
ploits fully as astonishing as those I
have described.-'rimes-Democrat.

Justin McCarthy and some friendi
were talklg once about a member o.
the House of Commons. A lady wht
was one of the company said it was a
pity for the sake of his personal ap
pearance that he had such very largi
ears. "Yes," said T. P. O'Connor, the
brilliant parliamentary and platforn
orator, "and the worst of it La thea
while they are too large for ears, thel
are too small for wings."
The farst collected edition of Chan·
cer's works was published by Pynson,
who issued the first of the three parts
in 1526. In 1532 there followed an edi

name of Thomas Tyrwhitt is justly re
