Periodical Sick Headaches.
Of Interest to Women, Berauiie In This
Cmhc They I’rwerded From itn All*
meut I’enllar to the Sex.
From the Herald Democrat. Huron, S. D.
A few years since, J. W. Kolley came to
Huron, South Dakota, from Osceola, lowa,
and purchased an interest jn the Huron
City Mill, an immense structure, having u
capacity of 200 barrels of flour per day.
Soon after his arrival Mr. Kelley's family
removed here and some mouths later they
were joined by their son Elmer and family,
he having purchased an interest in the con
cern, and the linn became known as J. W.
Kelley .V Son. since their arrival they
have built up an immense trade for their
patent roller flower, and ship many carloads
every month to eastern and other markets.
When they came to Huron, Mrs. J. W.
Kelley was in very delicate health and tho
change of climate and conditions seemed to
benefit her. Hut tho relief proved only
temporary, however, for after a few months
residence here she lapsed into the same in
firm physical condition that had been her
lot for then near ly twenty years. Her ail
ments were those peculiar to women, and
which women alone can best understand.
In addition to these troubles Mrs. Kelley
was a sufferer from acute sick headache.
This would come upon her at intervals of
about two weeks, continuing for two, three
or four days, much of the time com) e ling
her to keep to her bed. Because < f her
affliction she was quite unable to do her
housework, visit, her neighbors or attend
church. This worried her greatly, for siio
is a devout Christian and lives according
to her profession. As Kev. B. 11. Hurtt,
pastor of the Congregational Church, to
which Mrs. Kolley belongs, said of her one
evening at the close of service:
“Mrs. Kelley is indeed a true mother in
Israel; she is conscientious and earliest,
faithful and devoted—a Christian in the
truest sense of the term.”
In replying to inquiries touching her case
Mrs. Kolley said:
“I am sixty years of age, and was born in
New York state, where 1 lived for fourteen
years, then removed with my parents to
Michigan. living there about the same num
ber of years, then went to lowa, remaining
there till wo came here four years ago or
more. 1 have been troubled with weaknesses
peculiar to my sex for the past twenty-five
years. During that time my husband has
expended a large mnounl of money feeing
rihysiciansand buying remedies, but 1 found
ittle relief. Physicians told me tho womb
was badly disarranged and no permanent
relief could bo nffoided till tho change of
life hail fully taken place. In this they,
like myself, were disappointed. To add to
my other tioublcs a headache, painfully
sickening would come upon me about every
two weeks. I been mo quite discouraged
and fora time ceased doctoring almost en
tirely; I had lost faith in tho science of
medicine, both of the old school and now,
aud cared to expend no more money in that
way.
"About a year ago my son read in some
newspaper an advertisement of Ur. Wil
liams' Piuk Pills, and urged mo to try them.
1 hesitated because 1 had tried so many
patent medicines without securing the
much sought and long hoped for relief. But
he insisted so strongly that 1 finally de
cided to give them a trial. Almost from
tho first 1 experienced relief, and after
using the first box a change for the better
was so apparent that I took courage and
continued to use them strictly according to
directions, until a short time since. 1 am
so much better, as any one can see. that 1
have gradually discontinued their use. I
take them now, but not regularly. lam a
firm believer in Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills,
and have no hesitancy in recommending
them to any who may be similarly afflicted
ns myself. What they have done for mo
they will do for others.”

PLATING SHIPS’ HULLS.
Iron Ships to lie Plneed In in Electric
Hath.
A new departure In the sheathing of
vessels Is to be undertaken In thlß
country, and the future cruisers and
battleships made for the United States
navy will probably be copper-sheathed,
according to the new process of elec
tro-plating. Experiments have been
going on for many years to electro
plate with copper the hulls of iron or
steam vessels, and the results ob
tained now justify the general adop
tion of a process of protection that can
be called purely American. An elec
tric plant has been established at Jer
sey City by the Ship Copper-Plating
Company, and the seagoing tug Assist
ance was treated to the new process as
an experiment. She has stood the test
so well that, after a year, she has a
hull nearly as free from all defects
caused by corrosion and sea animals
as when first launched.
Copper sheathing has been adopted
by ship-builders of all the leading
countries for years, and It has always
proved the best protection to the hulls
that could be devised, but rust and cor
rosion find its way between the cop
per plates in time, and starts up open
ings that eventually destroy the ship's
bottom or necessitates the costly work
of resheathing it.
The old way was to plate the bottom
of the ship carefully from stem to stern
with stout wood, and then coat this
with sheath copper, but the new meth
od is to place the vessel in a bath of
copper sulphate, into which an electric
current is passed. Liquid-tight com
partments are made to fit firmly upon
the sides and bottom of the hull, and
when filled with a solution of the cop
per the four anodes are placed through
an opening In the top. These consti
tute the positive pole, and the Iron
hull acts-as the negative. A film of
copper without seams or breaks gradu
ally forms on the bottom of the ship,
and in forty-eight hours this air-tight
sheathing is one-sixteenth of an inch
thick. The sheathing fits so tightly
to the hull that It cannot be removed
without cutting into It with sharp in
struments, and even then it has be
come so welded to the iron that the
two cannot always be separated.
The value of this unbroken surface
of copper plating can be readily under
stood when some of the injuries to the
bottom of Iron vessels are examined.
The old method of copper sheathing
added so much to the weight of the
vessels that the naval advisory board
in 1882 refused to have the hulls of
the Chicago, Boston, Atlanta and Dol
phin sheathed. In the case of the Chi
cago It was estimated that 255 tons
would be added to the weight of the
vessel, and IGO tons would be added to
both the Boston and Atlanta. Pur
suing this same policy of keeping the
vessels light and buoyant on the water,
and thereby gaining additional speed,
the department refused to have any of
the subsequent war vessels copper
sheathed. As a result none of our war
vessels are sheathed, although a good
percentage of the ships of the English,
French, German and Russian navies
have their bottoms protected in this
way. By the new process of electro
plating the weight added to the ves
sels amounts only to 2.85 pounds to the
square foot. —Philadelphia Times.
THE CHESHIRE CHEESE.
A Quaint Ol<l Inn in London —Oasis of
Foculiar Charm.
Along Fleet street nineteenth-cen
tury humanity rushes in throngs, fev
erishly intent on the main chance, says
Scribner’s. But now and again units
from the mass fall out and disappear
Into a little doorway, so unobtrusive
in its character as to be easily passed
by strangers in search for It. A small
passageway, a bit of court, and one
enters the old Cheshire Cheese, tread
ing In the footsteps of generations of
wits and philosophers. A wit the visi
tor may not be, but he is certain to be
the other in one way or another and
hia purpose in coming here can have
little In common with the hurly-burly
he has but just left out there on Fleet
street. The tide of affairs has left
him stranded on an oasis of peculiar
charm—a low-ceilinged room, brown
as an old meerschaum, heavily raftered
and carrying to the sensitive nostril
tho scent of ages, the Indescribable
aroma inseparable from these haunts
of geniality; wide windows, white
curtained on two sides, and smiling
upon the newcomer; the merry glow
of the fire in the old grate, flirting
tiny flames upward that caress the
steaming, singing kettle hanging just
above. The old copper scuttle glints
with the fitful gleams upon its bur
nished, pudgy sides; the floor spread
abundantly with sawdust softens t.he
sound of footfalls. The white table
cloths make the note of tidiness, re
lieving the prevailing low tone of the
room. Over against one wall hang two
cocked hats and a cane, Johnson’s.
The silk hats and trousers of modern
London almost seem out of harmony
with the cozy quaintness of their en
vironment, but smalls and buckles and
cocked hats pass away and architec
ture survives the fashions and per
sons of its creators.
The Polar dear's Sore Foot.
The polar bear on one side, and the
two grizzlies on the other, of the line
of bars that separate the bear pit In
tho Central Park Menagerie into two
compartments, scrap a little now and
then through the bars. They can't
reach through far enough to do one
another much damage, and they don't
fight very much, but a while ago the
polar hear had a piece nicked out of
one of his forefeet by a grizzly’s claw,
and the wound made a sore spot,
which needed to be healed. It would
have been possible to lasso the bear
and so secure him that his paw could
have been bandaged; but he would
have torn the bandage off the mo
ment he was released, and other
means to cure him were adopted.
A healing lotion was prepared, and
then, when the hear had been at
tracted to the front of the pit, while
one man fed him some food that he
liked very much, another applied tlie
healing lotion to the sore foot by
means of a syringe, and the applica
tion was repeated in this manner jus
often as was necessary until the
boar’s foot was healed.

MISSING ARCHDUKE.
End of m Romance That Him Interested
All Europe.
From the Lady’s Pictorial: The
“Mystery of Johann Orth” has now re
sulted in a definite sequel, the Can
tonal Court of St. Gall, in Switzerland,
having given judgment In the matter
of the fortune of the missing Arch
duke, "Johann Orth,” who disappear
ed so qiysteriously some years ago, ant 1
whose story attracted so much public
attention at the time. The Archduke
Johann Salvator of Tuscany, and
nephew of the Emperor of Austria, P
may be remembered, fell in love with
an opera singer, whom he married !•
spite of all family opposition, renounc
ing. at the same time, all his rights
privileges and rank, and assuming th*
name of “Orth,” after one of his cas
tles. The romantic marriage was cele
brated secretly, but In a perfectly lega’
manner, by the registrar of Islington
and countersigned by the Austrian
consul. "Johann Orth’’ next bought
In Liverpool a fine ship, which he re
christened the Santa Margarita, after
his wife, and so jealous was he of the
vessel being recognized that he stipu
lated that all photographs and draw
ings of It should be handed over to
him, and all these he burned. More
over, he caused all portraits and neg
atives of himself to be bought up at
any price in Austria and elsewhere;
and all these were likewise destroyed.
Those are absolute facts. He then set
sail with his wife for South Amer
ica, and the vessel was duly reported
to have arrived, and departed from
Montevideo for a destination un
known. But from that moment every
trace is lost of the ship and all on
board. Not a scrap of any sort of
news ns to her fate has ever been re
covered, although many a search has
been made along the coast by order
of the Emperor of Austria and the
Hungarian government. Treasure
seekers, too. have been at work, as it
was known that the Archduke had on
board over £250,000 in gold. It Is be
lieved that he Intended to have bought
an estate in Chili with the money and
settled there, but that the vessel
foundered off Cape Horn during a ter
rlfle storm which raged on the coast
shortly after the ship left. From time
to time since then the most startling
rumors have cropped up about the
’missing Archduke” having turned up.
One version was that he had been one
Df the leaders of the Chilian rebellion,
having divided his treasure among
ills crew, burned the ship, landed on a
lonely coast and made Ills way to
Dhlli; another that ho was the famous
marshal who conquered the Chinese.
A third story is that the eccentric
prince is still alive and secretly cor
responds with Ills mother. However,
he St. Gall tribunal evidently does not
believe that the Archduke Is still alive,
for the relatives of Ills .wife having
claimed a million francs deposited by
aim with the Bank of St. Gall prior to
bis departure, the court has ordered
the moneys to be now paid over to
hem, as he had made a will leaving all
he possessed to her. And thus prac
tically ends one of the most remark
able romances In the dynastic history
of Europe in this century; but wo
may rest assured that for many a year
we shall be startled with reports of
the mysterious “missing Archduke”
having turned up In some part of the
world or another, and subsequently of
so-called heirs.

A LIVING TELEPHONE
MACHINE WHICH A DEAF MUTE
CARRIES WITH HIM.
An Inventor with Many Ambitions— ,
Penulleea, Without Friends, He list
Set Out on Foot for the l’atoul
Office.
I C. CHESTER is a'
living telephone.*
He is a deaf mute. I
and he has devlaed
an apparatus which
enables him to
carry on a conver- \
sation. He hails
from Glendive, I
Mont., and is trav-1
eling about the'
country giving ex- 1
hlbitions, 6ays the New York Journal. \
He Is not a true deaf mute In the sense
that Laura Bridgman was. He has a
certain sense of hearing and can utter
a few guttural sounds. But he is go
ing to do more. He expects to hear and I
speak intelligibly. His scheme is to fit 1
a telephone to his body so that where
he travels it will travel also. When 1
he lies down the telephone lies down. '
When he walks the telephone walks. 1
His body Is the body of the telephone,
and there is no life in either without
the other. He Is a living telephone,
able to hear and speak through Hpace.
In spite of a great deal of fun that has
been poked at him since the conception
of his invention he has gone on undis
mayed, until now it —or he —stands
completed! It is an actual thing, and
is now on the way to Washington witli
him. He is tramping it to the capftal
to exhibit It—and himself. And he
hopes to irake a fortune for himself as
well as to confer a great benefit upon
deaf and dumb mankind. This living
telephone is a bulky fellow. He wears
under his clothes, almost next to his
hotly, a great many colls of insulated
wire. These are carried around the
waist many times, like a lady’s ribbon,
and, being slender, they do not hurt
him or cause him any inconvenience. 1
In one hip pocket there Is a bulky
package. It is not heavy, but It sticks
out with a hump that cannot be con
cealed. It is a dry battery and Is re
lated to the wire In an Important way.
The first thing the observer notes is a
large receiver, similar to the one used
on a telephone. This is attached to the
left ear. It is a powerful sound-receiv
er. Attached to it is a wire that can
be connected with the teeth, in case the
mute cannot hear with the receiver.
He has found by many experiments
that the dulled nerves of the ear are
quickened by these powerful electrical
appliances and that he does hear. It
is a vague, uncertain hearing, but a
great deal better than none at all. It
is more a vibration than a hearing.
He gets a murmur of sounds, not as
dear as given by the saltpeter solution
In which hands can be dipped, but
clear enough for every day use and
more convenient than the basin of
fluid now so commonly used by deaf
mutes to get sound vibration. The fun
niest part of the apparatus is found
in the transmitter and receiver that
hangs at the side. There 1b a hook
upon which the transmitter is suspend
ed and a receiver for the sound. Both
of them are for the use of the public.
Should you meet this walking tele
phone upon the road he would offer
you the transmitter and receiver that
hangs upon the hook. The receiver
you would place to the ear and you
, would talk through the transmitter,
j The deaf mute would listen Intently,
the wound being much assisted by the
receiver In his ear. When he replies
he speaks through a tin horn connect- ;
ing with the wires and trusts to the
carrying efTect of the telephone. In i
:hls way he can converse over a space j
Dt several feet as easily as any ©tlier
man. But It is in public halls and as
semblies that this machine is expected
to do its best work. Here the tele
phone can be connected at the stage
and the mute in the audience will get
:he full sound. There are many pat
ents Involved in this machine, for the
inventor has borrowed freely from all
•.he known devices. But he hopes he
will be forgiven for the sake of the
human race. Never was man more im
pressed with the worthiness of his own
mission. Penniless, on foot, without
friends, he has set out for Washington
and the patent office. He is convinced
that all who take tho trouble to ex
amine his walking telephone will ad
mire it, and that means money enough
for all the patents required. He has
raised himself from a poor, worthless
fellow to be an inventor of at least
many ambitions, and, who knows, he
may yeA be the Edison of sound for the
leaf.
Curious Addition to the Typewriter.
A curious addition to the typewriter,
called the “typewriter prism,” has
been invented. It is an ingeniously
wrought scientific adaptation of a well
known principle In optics, and Its ob
ject Is to render the writing of a tpye
wrlter visible to the operator as It is
being written. The principal part of
the device consists of a prism of pure
optical glass as long as the line to be
printed. It is carefully ground and
polished, and is fastened to the carriage
>f the maahine beneath the impression
roller. Two of its three sides are flat,
and the third is a strong cylindrical
convex curve. The curved side is in
view of the operator, and the writing
is visible on its surface. Not onlj is it
perfectly reflected, but the writing is
presented right side tip, magnified to
any desired extent. The service is
rendered complete by the attachment
of a metal pointer, which shows the
exact spot on which the next character
written will appear.

A WONDERFUL SHRUB.
Grown on the llonka of the Gan|M »nd
Cures Many Hodlly 111".
One of the latest botanical discov
eries of Interest to seekers for health
Is called Alkavls. from the Kava-Kava
shrub of India. It Is being Imported by
the Church Kidney Cure company of
New York, and Is a certain cure for
several bodily disorders. The Kava-
Kava shrub, or, as botanists call It,
“Piper Methystlcum,” grows on the
banks of the Ganges river, and probab
ly was used for centuries by the natives
before Its extraordinary properties be-
I came known to civilization through
I Christian missionaries. In this re
' sped It resembles the discovery of qul
| nine from the peruvlan bark, made
j known by the Indians to the early
I missionaries in South America, and by
j them brought to civilized man. It Is a
[ wonderful discovery, with a record of
| 1,200 hospital cures In thirty days. It
acts directly upon the blood and kld
| neys, and is a true speclllc, just as qui
nine Is In malaria. We have the strong
est testimony of many ministers of
the gospel, well known doctors and
business men cured by Alkavls. So far
the Church company, No. 422 Fourth
avenue, New York, are the only Im
porters of this new remedy, and they
are so anxious to prove its value that
for the sake of Introduction they will
send a free treatment of Alkavls pre
paid by mail to every reader of this
i paper who 1s a sufferer from any form
of kidney or bladder disorder, Bright’s
disease, rheumatism, dropsy, gravel,
pain in back, female complaints or oth
er afflictions due to improper action of
the kidneys or urinary organs. We ad
vise all sufferers to send their names
and address to the company, and re
ceive the Alkavls free. It Is sent to
you entirely free, to prove its wonder
ful curative powers.

they would be bankrupt,
simply because the combination won’twork.
A sick titan is in very much the same fix
about getting at the nourishment he needs
to keep him alive. There is plenty of good
food at hand, but his digestive organism is
out of order; the nutritive “combination”
of his system won’t work. He can’t possi
bly get at the nourishment contained in the
food. He takes it into his stomach, but it
does him tto good. It isn’t made into good
blood. He is just as badly off as if the
food was locked up where he couldn’t touch
it. He gets no strength or health out of it.
All these mal-nutritive conditions have a
perfect and scientific remedy in I)r. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery. It puts the nu
tritive “combination” of the system into
perfect working order. It gives the diges
tive and blood - making organs power to
make pure, red. healthy blood, and pour it
into the circulation abundantly and rapidly.
It drives out all bilious poisons and scrof
ulous germs, cures indigestion, liver con»-
nlaint, nervousness and neuralgia, and
iutilds up solid flesh, active power and
nerve force.
