MISCELLANEOUS ■ _ •_:___ ’ PINCHED FACES. PECULIAR TO AMERICAN WOMEN. Some of the Causes which Appear upon Investigation. [SPECIAL TO OUE LADY READERS.] Ask them “ What can be the matter ? ” and the invariable answer is, “I don’t know. ” The eyes droop, and an air of deep gloom seems to overwhelm them. Press your questions a little closer, and you find avoid ance of all society, re lUCUUlCC tu make the slightest ef fort, all ac companied with a crushing sense of “ war don't women bearing HAVE MOKE FAITH?'* down. Further investigation discloses irregu larity of periods, dizziness and faintness at times, and perhaps leucorrhoea. Then surely the evidence is all-sufficient. An American woman has discovered that the cause of all this lies in a deranged and diseased uterus or womb. Lydia E. Pinkliam's Vegetable Com pound is the most marvellous cure for this trouble ever discovered. A purely vegetable remedy, it is at once an absolutely safe and natural cure for this crushing trouble. It has cured thousands, and will cure you as sure as truth is truth. Here is a letter from one of them which she wants us to publish: — “For years I have been al most a constant sufferer from fe male trouble in all its dreadful forms: shooting pains all over * my body, sick : headache, spinal weakness, faint ness, dizziness, depression, and everything that was horrid. I tried many doctors in dif ferent parts of the United States, but Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable compound has done more for me than all the doctors. “ I feel it my duty to tell you these facts that you also may be cured. My heart is full of gratitude to Mrs. Pinkham.” —Mrs. Harriet Wampler, Box 944, Baraboo, Wis. ■Nerve H Tonic Bend foi deecriptivt pamphlet ui WILLIAMS* ill50e. MEDICINE CO., per box.

Many Embalmed and Put In Catacombs by the Ancients. Not only did the ancient Egyptians embalm the bodies of the human dead— they performed a like operation upon the remains of the sacred animals, though in general less expense and trouble were taken over them, animals being chiefly prepared by soaking in natron. The list of sacred animals is a long one, though the very ones that were most highly esteemed in some piaecs were most abhorred in others. The list includes dogs, cats, monkeys lions, wolves, jackals, foxes, hyenas, bears, ichneumon,shrew mice, bulls, deer, goats, sheep, hippopotami, vultures, eagles, falcons, hawks, owls, ibis, geese, swallows, crocodiles, toads, lizards serpents, fish of various kinds, rats, mice, beetles, and even inseers and flies As a rule, with the large animals, the head only was mummied, the body being represented by pieces of wood. The birds are squeeze^, together aud lost their shape, except the ibis, which, according to Belzoni, is formed like a fowl ready to he cooked. The ibis and the hawk appear to have had the most care be stowed upon them, for rosin and asphalt are frequently found within their enve lopes. Birds in general, having been wrapped in their bandages, were then placed in an earthern urn and deposited in the tomb. No mummies of animals are to be met with in the tombs of the higher class persons. Most of them had their own sepulchres consecrated and ppropriated to their species only, but they were ocasionally found mixed. The catacomb of birds is distinct from the catacomb of human mummies. One bird only is inclosed :n each earthern pot, and an indefinite number of pots were found in good order, whole and salted. The hot^nature of the materials with which they have been embalmed fiad however,.dried up the greater num ber to powder. Upon the possession of Egypt by the French, upward of 500 mummies of the ibis alone were discov ered in the catacombs of birds. Certain animats were maintained at the public expeuse in sacred parks, and people were appointed to^nourish them with the greatest care.' Bread, milk, honey, meat, birds, fish,‘&c., were ail supplied according to the nature of the animals. No expense was spared. The keepers bore upon their persons the resemblance of the species to which their care was aevocen, auu pcupie puiu ioiunr&B ui id spect to them as they passed along. The greatest sorrow was manifested at the death of any of them. They were em balmed and interred with great pomp and splendor. So great waslthe venera tion^in which these ammais were held that, though when a famine afflicted Egypt, the people were driven to eat humfii flesh, yet the sacred beasts, birds, reptiles or fishes were always re spected. They would rather eat their own species than lay sacrilegious hands upon what might be gods in disguise. Animals of the lowest character, even noxious insects, were fostered in their temples, nourished by their priests, em balmed after death, entombed with pomp and received all kinds of honors. Those who, either by accident or de sign, occasioned the death of any of these animals paid the forfeit of their lives as the penalty of the offense. Dio dorous Siculus says: “He who has vol untarily killed a consecrated animal is punishable with death, but if anyone has involuntarily killed a cat or an ibis it is impossible for him to escape capital punishment. The mob drags him to it treating him with every cruelty and sometimes without waiting for judgment to be passed.’’—London Society. CRASH! CRASH!
