Warning; to Tlioae Who Take Snail

There Is a quaint old parish church la
riurlen, Brittany, built lu the early
part of the llfteenth century and bar
fing, with many other primitive ar
rangements, the bell rope from the bel
fry hanging down from the roof of the
uuvo and dangling just lu front of the
pulpit, so that the process of bell ring
lug Is performed In full view of the
ongregation. But what was more pe
culiar was the projection at right an
gles from one of the walls (also near
the pulpit) of a sculptured hand and
arm of full size as though held out from
the shoulder by somebody built into the
solid fabric of the wall Itself, and the
hand opened and, palm upward and fin
gers extended, had a suggestion of ap
pcnl and solicitation which naturally
provoked curiosity.
As there was no Inscription or any
thing to bint at the nature of the story
that evidently lay behind the sculp
tured limb, I made inquiry of a charm
ing old lady who was decorating the
altar with flowers in view of the next
day's high mus, and she told me thai
many years ago. In the faroff past,
there was n wicked villager who went
indeed to mass, but was far from de
vout, and on one occasion he so far for
got himself in the service on a hot sum
mer's day as to hold out his hand
through the open door or window to aa
equally undevout friend outside for a
pinch of snuff.
The pinch was duly given, but St
Peter, the patron saint of the church,
was so scandalized by so terrible a
want of reverence that ho straightway,
paralyzed the arm of the offending
snuff taker, who thereupon took to hU
bed and died, hut not before he bad ad
mitted the Justice of his punishment
and had left directions In his will for
setting up In the church of the marble
reminder of his sin In order that all fit
ture villagers In riurlen might be warn
ed against the terrible enormity of al
lowing tiny distraction to interrupt the
devout hearing of the puiss. It is a
curious story and reminds one tiint
there has been an Infancy in religion
as well as in most other of the great
motive powers of existence. Glasgow

Y. Every mother possess.es information of vital value to her young

When a young girl's thoughts become sluggish, when she experi
ences headaches, dizziness, faintness, and exhibits an abnormal disposi
tion to sleep, pains in tho back and lower limbs, eyes dim, desire for
solitude, and a dislike for the society of other girls, when she is a mys

" Dear Mrs. Fixe ham : I hope you will publish this letter, for I want nil '
mothers to know how much good your medicine did my young daughter. Her
health brake down about six months ago, and although she is large for her
age, Idid not understand what was wrontf with her j the doctor did not, either,
for he treated her for her heart, which pained her a good deal ; but he did not "
do her any good, and we were afraid heart trouble would carry her off. Every
day she kpt getting whiter and thinner. She had no appetite, and she sat
around without any ambition, and was always too tired to do anything. AU
night long she would moan ia her sleep, as though in terrible pain.
"I felt terribly discouraged; I was spending money for doctor's bills
right along, but she was receiving no help. At that time I was taking Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and 1 read in one of your books
about young girls. I decided to drop tho doctor, and give her your medicine.
I wish you could see the change in her, and tho pink checks Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound has given her. She had taken but half a,
bottle when menstruation started again and her heart trouble went away like
magic. I had her continue the medicine, and now she is fat, rosy, and per
fectly healthy. Menstrnation is regular and painless, and I owe my thanks
to you and to your wonderful medicine for her pood health." Mrs. Margaret
Puelan, 073 Tenth Avenue, New York City.
