HOW TO WIN A HUSBAND.
Woman's sphere in this 20th century Is
not limited any more than fa man's. She
can occupy almost any business position
or profession, and yet the popular vie,w of
womanhood is that she best fits the posi
tion of wife and mother and head of the
household. Kvery girl should know her
keait and also know that her womanly
system is equal to the strain of marriage.
If iri is nervous and irritable ten chances
to one it is due to some trouble peculiar to
womanhood.
Cupid has no place in a girl's heart if
he is nervous and irritable, feels dragged
down, worn out for no reason that she can
think of. The weak back, dizzy spells and
black circles about the eyes are only symp
toms. Go to the source of the trouble and
correct the irregularity. Stop the drains
on the womanly system and the other
Srmptotnft will disappear. This can be
one easily and intelligently. So 6ure of
it is the World's Diapensacy Medical Asso
ciation, the proprietors of Dr. Pierce's Fa
vorite Prescription, that they offer $500
reward for women who cannot be cured of
leucorrhea, female weakness, prolapsus, or
falling of the womb: All they ask is a fair
and reasonable trial of their means of cure.
"Your 'Favorite Prescription cured me of
Ulceration and inflammation, from which I suf
fered for manv years, writes Mrs. Delnhia
Whcaton, President Santa Barbara Lawn Ten
nis Club, Arlington Hotel, Santa Barbara, Calif.
Henlth was completely broken down when I
began its use ond I was iu dreadful pain most
f the time, but ten bottl -s cured me."
"Favorite Prescription " makes weak
women strong, sick women well. Accept
no substitute for the medicine which works
wondeis for weak women.
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are the most
, desirable laxative for d :licate women.

! The Under
Copyright, 1C05, by McClure. Phillips & Co.
I hud been invited to spend a week
with Colonel Hampton at Hampton
Hall, but on arrival founl that be had
been called aw-.:? for a couple of days
by urgent lousiness.. A note to this ef
fect was untried me, and I was told to
make myself very much at home. The
bedroom given me was a larse room,
with a bed against the west wall and
a reading tabltvin the center.
When 1 went up to the room I sat
facing tho hod.. It was a heavy ma
hogany frame, with a valance hanging
down, and just icepii:g out from un
der this curtain was the toe of a coarse
Ehoe a coarse and heavy shoe, with the
sole nailed on. I rccagnized it iu an
instant as a prison shoe. All convicts
wore that make of sliou . wliilfe serving
their time and left thorn behind when
set at liberty.
That there was an escaped convict
under the bed I hadn't the slightest
doubt. As I looked at that toe I remem
bered that Colonel Hampton had been
governor at Dartmoor for many years,
though out of it for the last five, and
wondered what the connection could
be.
I knew little of the hall and was ig
norant of the servants' quarters, wbile
it was a full mile to the nearest house
and over three to the police station.
However, I had no thought of running
away. I grew cooler as the minutes
passed, and presently I did the best
thing I could have done under the cir
cumstances. Doing my best to steady
my voice and speaking as if to one be
side me. I said :
"You might as well come out from
under the bed, my man."
The man rolled Into view and sprang
to his feet with a muttered curse. He
was a convict in uniform. He was
short and thick set and a man of great
strength. As for his face, every line
of it was evil. In his hand he clutched
and flourished a naked knife nearly a
foot long. (3 1 ven a choice, I would
rather have been in that room-with a
Bengal tiger just escaped from his cage.
"We!!, what do you want here?" I
,askcd in a voice I tried to make care
loss as I put away my book.
"I want your life, curse you!" he re
plied as he cann? a stop nearer.
"I am here. What is it? Have you
just walked o;.t of Dartmoor?"'
"Yes, I escape:! from prisonfrom
hell this morning, and no doubt they'll
have me back before noon tomorrow,
but wlien they co:i;e for me they'll find
your dead l.o.ly. That's why I wanted
to give 'em the slip f;r a few hours, to
kill you. As for getting clear oft with
out money or friends, I can't hope to do
it. You remember me, governor. I am
Bill Watson, No. 4810, in for twenty
years."
"You call ire governor," I said in re
ply as he li nished. '"You are mistaken
In your man. Colonel Hampton used to
be governor, but you ought to remem
ber that he resigned five years ago. He
Is away from home just now."
"Yes, I Irnow he rt.igvod, but I swore
revenge on him long ago and am here
to get It. No, you are not the governor;
curse you. I see the difference now.
I've waited ten years for this, and now
I'm told that he will escape me. Man,
don't lie to me or I'll kill you like a
dog! I came here to kill the devil who
ordered me to be lashed until I cringed
and whined like a cur, and no one shall
balk me."
I showed him the note that the colo
nel had left me and then'asked him to
sit down. There was a bottle of wine
Iu the closet, and I brought It out to
him. I offered to tiptoe down to the
sideboard and bring up some biscuit
for him. For five minutes he watched
me with tigerish glare, seeming to bo
undecided what to do, but then he took
a long drink from the bottle and said:
"I'd willingly hang after killing that
man, but I can't hold you responsible.
His wife and children are here, how
ever." "You must have heard that the colo
nel is an old bachelor?"
"Curse me, but I remember now!
Then I'm to get no revenge? I'm to
be taken back to that hell on earth
and lashed and locked up in darkness
and get nothing out of it? Say. I'll do
murder and hang for it! I'll I'll"
"Let's talk a moment," I broke In on
him. "What was your crime?"
"I had a fight with a man, and he
died two weeks later."
"And how long have you served?"
"Sixteen years sixteen years so
long that I can hardly look back to the
day I entered prison. If I. had killed
throe men the punishment Is enough."
"And if you could escape get clear
off get out of the country?"
"It couldn't be done. , I haven't a
penny. I'd have to rob some one for
even a change of shoes. No. I'll go
out and meet the police and"
"Listen. I'm a bit sorry if they used
you roughly in prison. Sixteen years
Is a long, long time. I have a hundred
pounds here. Half of it Is yours.
There is clothing in that closet to fit
you. When you go out of here you can
walk past the police without fear.
Why not try America? Why not make
a aew stnrf In life?" -
"Do you mean it? God, but do you
mean it?" he hoarsely whispered.
Why did I help the man away? Well,
first, oa Colonel Hampton's account. It
would have leaked out that the con
vict had come for revenge on a man
who had the reputation of running the
prison with a strong hand. Next, It
seemed to me that his punishment had
lasted long enough. Lastly, my friends
have always charged me with being
soft hearted and taking the part of the
under dog In the fight. I know that
the man got away and is working In a
factory In America today, and I don't
; believe the law has any call to feel out-

LINCOLN THE ATHLETE.
IIow tb Youth's IJodJly Viaror Stood
II tin In Good Stotsd.
Young Lincoln's Lodiiy vigor 'stood
him in good stead iu irauy ways. la
frontier lue strength and athletic skill
served as wc'I for popular amcsenioni
as for prosaic toil, and at times, indeed,
they were needed for person-si defense.
Every community had its champion
wrestler, a man of considerable local
imiortance, in whoe success the
neighbors tofz a becoming interest.
There was not far from New Kalcui i:
settlement called Clary's J rove, when
lived a set of resiles?, rollicking young
backwoodsmen with a .ttcng iikiug for
frontier athletics and rough practical
jokes. Jack Armstrong was the leader
of these and until Lincoln's arrival had
been tiie champion wrestler of both
Clary's Grove and New Salem. lie am:
his friend had not the slightest per
sonal grudge againsrt Lincoln, but,
hearing the neighborhood talk about
the newcomer and especially Offut's
extravagant praise of his clerk, who,
according to Offut's statement, knew
more than any one else in the United
Btates and could beat the whjie coun
try at running, jumping or "wras
tling," they decided that the time had
come to assert themselves and strove
to bring about a trial of strength be
tween Armstrong and Lincoln. Lin
coln, who disapproved!' &fU:tWf fU
ing and pulling " J " v
had no desire
his neighbors,?
long as possit, , ,
good temper was, pv. .f v avert it,
and the wrestling match took place.
Jack Armstroug soon found that he
had tackled a man us strong and skill
ful as himself, and his friends, seeing
him likely to get the worst of It,
swarmed to his assistance, almost suc
ceeding, by tripping and kicking, In
getting Lincoln down. At the unfair
ness of this Lincoln became suddenly
and furiously angry, put forth his en
tire strength, lifted the pride of Clary's
Grove in his arms like a child and,
holding him high in the air, almost
choked the life out of him. It seemed
for a moment a though a general fight
must follow; but even while Lincoln
fierce rage compelled their respect his
quickly returning self control won their
admiration, and the crisis was safely
passed.
Instead of becoming enemies and
leaders in a neighborhood feud, as
might have been expected, tho two
grew to be warm friends, the affection
thus strangely begun las! ing through
life. They proved u-eful to each other
in various ways, and years afterward
Lincoln made ample amends for his
rough treatment of the other's throat
by saving the nor k of Jack Armstrong';
son from the halter in a u; ;norab!o
trial for murder. The C!aryr. Grove
"boys" voted Lincoln "the cleverest fel
low that ever broke into the settle
ment," and thereafter took as much
pride in his peaccableness and book
learning as they did in the rougher and
more questionable accomplishments of
their discomfited leader. Helen Nieolay
