M Dear Mrs. Pinkhjlm : For over two years 1 Was a constant sufferer suf-ferer from extreme nervousness, indigestion, and dizziness. Menstruation was irregular, had backache and a feeling of great lassitude and weakness. weak-ness. I was so bad that I was not able to do my own work or go far in the street. I could not sleep nights. "I tried several splendid doctors, but they gave me no relief. After taking Lydia K. Pinkharu's Vegetable Compound I soon began to feel better, and was able to go out and not feel as if I, would fall at every step. I continued to take the medicine until cured.' "I cannot say enough in behalf of Lydia E. Pinkharn's medicine, and heartily recommend all suffering women to try it and find the relief I did." Mrs. Florence Holland, 622 S.

"Dear Mrs. Pinkham: I was in -poor health for several years. I had female trouble and was not able to do my housework alone. I felt tired, very nervous, and could not sleep. I doctored with several doctors. They doctored me for my stomach, but did not relieve me. I read in your book about your medicine, and thought I would try it. I did so, and am now cured and able to do my work alone, and. feel good. I was always very poor, but now weigh one hundred and fifty pounds. 44 1 thank you for the relief I have obtained, and I hope that every woman troubled with female weakness will give Lydia E.

(CoxmnrED). "You will not have failed to observe," he began, "that our past attempts now five in number have all practically practi-cally owed their failure to one and the same cause. ' We have not hitherto recognized which is the stronger and which the weaker of the two barriers that confine the object of our devotion. Because there are but two cruisers guarding the seaboard of St. Helena, while a continuous cordon of armed sentinels is posted around Longwood House, another at the confines of the domain, and yet a third along the coast, we have made the mistake of supposing suppos-ing that our chief difficulties would meet us on lapd. But experience has wn that by f elying on he corruption of servntsTSrMlfwuLwnyVA" tries the path to the shore can always" be made smooth. The really insurmountable insur-mountable obstacle has hitherto been the vigilance of the English men-of-war. They are, as you know, warned of the approach of a vessel by signal from the lookout on the peak, which has a prospect of over twenty leagUeS: Cruising, one to windward; one td lee wardj they allow no ship to enter the fOads without being searched; no one to land without permission from the admiral; and even after dark their guardboats, pulling round the island all night, prevent any communication with the shore. "A prisoner, then, who has gained the landing-stage, is none the less a prisoner still, for he can by no possibility possi-bility succeed in passing over the half-league half-league of water which separates him from the vessel waiting to bear him away to freedom." M. Carnac sighed again. "It's quite true," said Mr. Holmes; "I found that out myself." "Say rather that you sent others to risk their necks in finding it out for you," growled the count. The colonel hastened to divert their attention from each other. "Fortunately," "Fortu-nately," he continued, "an inspiration came to me." Camilla glanced quickly up in astonishment; aston-ishment; and he went on rapidly, as if to retrieve a false step. "An inspiration inspira-tion from a source not unknown to you. Madame de Montaut, -who has spoken with so much eloquence to-night, was In fact the first to suggest that it might be possible to pass under that which we could not pass over." The three visitors stared and were dumb. Camilla looked anxiously at their faces to gather their probable opinion. "Yes," said the colonel, "a submarine boat is what Is needed; and if the idea was another's, I may at least claim that the execution of it has been mine." "Execution?" asked Holmes, with transparent jealousy. "What do you mean? The thing's impracticable!" "Oh! it is a poor machine," said the colonel, with great deference, "and not in any way one such as you, Mr. Holmes, would have been able to design; de-sign; but I think it will serve its purpose, pur-pose, and that Is enough." M. Carnac shook his head. "I hope It may," he said,despondently. "This," said the colonel, unfolding a drawing and holding it up, "is a sketch of the boat. It is eight feet wide, seven deep, and sixty-five long, and is made in a number of separate parts, each capable of being concealed in a hogshead hogs-head cask. The whole can be put together to-gether in two hours." "Good!" cried the count, with a side glance at Holmes. "Most ingenious! And how do you propose to use it?" "Only as an auxiliary, of course," re-plTed re-plTed M. de Montaut, "for its effective range is very limited. It is sunk by admitting water into tanks at the two ends, and raised by pumping it out again. The propelling power consists of two broad paddles worked from inside in-side by hand, and moving much like the fins of a fish. The shape of the boat, as you see, is not unlike that of an ordinary canal barge, with watertight water-tight ends, and with the central space covered in by an oblong erection, having hav-ing panes of glass in the front and sides for purposes of steering, and at the top a hatch or trap-door for ingress and egress." "It will be very laborious to work," said the count. "Precisely," said the colonel; "and I propose therefore to use it only as far as it is absolutely necessary. My idea is this: A merchant-vessel will arrive off Jamestown, St. Helena, on a day already appointed, and will obtain permission per-mission to anchor in the road, but of course outside the circle patrolled by the guard-boats. As soon as it is dark the submarine boat will be fitted together to-gether and launched under the charge of a skilled and resolute seaman. He will make the passage to and from the shore under water, and when once he has brought the Emperor on board our vessel, the submarine boat may be sunk and abandoned, and we can make sail for Europe without a moment's delay." M. Carnac was an old man, and constitutionally con-stitutionally timid; the novelty of the Idea was alone sufficient to startle him. Mr. Holmes "was the Emperor's accredited ac-credited agent in England, and could not brook that another should take the lead in so Important a matter. The count was the boldest and most energetic of the three, and the one most attracted by the scheme; but he knew little or nothing of the sea, and was, besides, already under suspicion on account ac-count of a previous abortive attempt. In the event of another failure he would undoubtedly suffer the extreme penalty at the hands of his enemies. The colonel, who knew them all, had no difficulty in reading their intentions or at any rate their inclinations upon their faces; but he was not without with-out hope of gaining from them what measure of support was absolutely necessary to his plan. "I am both flattered and strengthened," strength-ened," he said, addressing them all, "by your kind approval; the more so as our share in -originating this scheme is but Small compared with the assistance which I hope to receive from you, who will thus earn the larger part of the glory and rewards which attend success. "From Mr. Holmes, to whose honor and judgment have been committed the vast funds of the imperial house, I shall hope to receive a grant of a sum of money to defray the expense of the expedition, which, however large, will be inconsiderable when weighed against the magnitude of the result. "M. le Comte, who has been endowed by nature with the strength and courage cour-age of a .hero, will, I trust, think those qualities worthily employed in the service serv-ice of one who appreciates them so highly. high-ly. I look to him to work the submarine boat, which will be famous In history, and In which he will receive the first greeting from the Emp?ror in freedom. "From you monsieur," he continued, turning to M. Carnac. who was awaiting await-ing his turn in visible trepidation, "I shall ask a less dangerous but not less : difficult service. - Our pretended mer- ! chant-vessel must be commanded by a 43Y MlNRY t&WBOLTt captain of first-rate ability id seamanship; seaman-ship; and of tact and resource Sufficient td enable him to satisfy the inquisitions inquisi-tions of the British officer who will board the, ship in the usual course on her arrival. ( You alone of us have still free access to France; ..you will, I am sure, find us such an officer among the neglected marine of the empire." He had hoped to lessen the risk "of refusal by asking them, in this way, for a simultaneous assent to his requests, re-quests, but an embarrassing silence followed his appeal. - Camilla flushed angrily, and he hastened hast-ened to anticipate her. "Well, Mr. Holmes," he said, "may I rely on you, then, for my littl" million V "No, you may not," returned Holmes, rudely. "It's out of the question." , M. de Montaut persevered with patient suavity. "I understand," he said, "you have many calls upon you; we can perhaps supply a part from other sources. How much, then, is the most you can give us?" "Nothing, for the present," was the reply; "possibly next year I may have some small sum to spare." "Next year!" cried Camilla, rising to her feet, and looking superbly dortTV" 1rrft4tok4k.ag-rre-lTer year you will have lost your place; the Emperor leaves St. Helena on the 6th of May!" And she turned her back upon him. i The colonel looked at the other two, He saw that the count was- wavering, hnd l3 give him time he turned to M. Carnac next. ' "My dear friend," "said the latter," "you have altogether mistaken my position. I dare not return to France upon such an errand. I know none of the imperial marine, and your scheme, however ingenious, appears to my mind too unreasonably audacious for me to recommend any one to embark upon it." "I am of the same opinion as M. Carnac," Car-nac," added the count, hesitating no longer. "I would dare anything in reason, but this is a forlorn hope." "Then, gentlemen," broke in Camilla, with a commanding gesture of dismissal, dis-missal, "we have but to thank you for your attendance this evening, and to absolve you for the future. As for this paltry million," she added, turning to her brother-in-law, "I will see to that. You shall find our captain, and the active ac-tive service we will take upon ourselves, our-selves, if all the world turn craven!" So saying she crossed the room and went out with a sweep of fine disdain. The colonel, who recognized more clearly that his enterprise and all concerned con-cerned in it were at the mercy of those to whom he had committed his secret,; remained behind to soothe the tramr feelings of the three discomfited g men. CHAPTER IV. HEN DIC, 1 awone next morn Ing the febrifuge had done its work and he was himself again, little the worse for a pair of stiff shoulders ancJ a iew cuts upon the head. The surgeon a wiry, sharp-eyed little man, of half his stalwart patient's weight rallietK him upon his sensitiveness to pain in a tone of irony which brought the blood hotly back into his cheeks, and gave them once more the bronzed glow of health. Dick would have given much to be able to explain the true cause of his agitated condition on the previous afternoon, but even his business at the Admiralty, and its result, seemed a futile reason to offer for such weakness; especially to an inquisitor whose- eyes were already twinkling with a suspicion sus-picion of the truth behind. So he turned the conversation by asking ask-ing whether he might go to his rooms to-day. "Oh yes, I dare say . you might," was the reply; "but why hurry? You're comfortable here, aren't you?" "H'm m, pretty well," said Dick, with transparent affectation. "Well, well," said the old man, "poor Madame de Montaut did her best, you know. But you may go," he continued, making for the door with a humorous pretense of bodily fear; "you may go to-day, but don't get overheated, and don't be out after sunset. Good-by!" And he fled-chuckling. Dick was left laughing and swearing to himself. "Con'ound it! why am I so simple Every casual stranger can sail round and round me, and stare Into my galley windows!" But he was only half displeased. This little bout had warmed him after all, and he felt the sanguine current of hope and active thought running through his brain like a Tnill-race In the spring sun-light. He had escaped the dreaded good fortune that had threatened him with Immediate Imme-diate banishment, and he had begun to find his bargain with Camilla even more profitable than he could have ventured to expect when he made it. It was not until close upon 3 o'clock that Camilla returned. However, when she did come, she came alone, and that was a consolation worth waiting for. She joined Dick in the morning-room downstairs, and settled herself by the fire with perfect ease of manner. He felt that his confidence might forsake him if he waited, and after he had replied re-plied to her inquiries he took a plunge at once. ' "Are you really Irish, and not French at all?" he asked. "Irish by birth," she replied; "French by breeding and adoption. Oh, it is no secret," she went on, with a smile, as Dick hesitated to press the inquiry; "and I would gladly tell you all about it if I thought It could interest you; but your sympathies lie, as I told you, in another direction altogether." "Everything interests me that concerns con-cerns you!" burst out Dick. "I am lnging to hear more. "It Is true that th more I tell you, the more completely you will acknowledge acknowl-edge me to be In the right," she replied; "and that consideration would tempt a woman to even greater imprudences than this." ' She laughed and looked him frankly in the face. He felt that this was not an opportunity for sentiment, - and caught gratefully at the camaraderie she offered him instead. "Good!" he said, smiling back at her; "then I will abandon my sympathies and own you to be right y and it shall be simply a story that you tell me, if you will." "Yes; but I shall claim one from you in return. And now listen.. I was born," she began, "in the year 1796, In the county of Tipperary. My mother died when I was but a few weeks old. My father. Anthony Donoghue of Castle Carrol, .was wrongfully suspected of being concerned in Wolfe Tone's conspiracy, con-spiracy, and when the rebellion broke out in '97 the Orangemen were upon him like tigers. , He took me a child of less than a year upon the saddle In front of him and rode for his life. "He succeeded, after many narrow eS-"" capes, in reaching Bantry Bay, where ( a number or patriots under Fitzgerald and O'Connor were met to receive Gen. Hoche and the French troops which he was bringing over at their Invitation. My father, who had previously , held aloof, was now tempted to Join them for the sake of revenge. ' c" "He nent me over to France In eharee Of a deserter's wife, to whom he was also al-so obliged to entrust the realized part of his fortune and the jewels which you have sometimes seen me wearing.

Bonaparte himself, to whose protection I had been com-mefided com-mefided by a letter from Hoche. "'Ah!'

"Napoleon was pleased with the readiness read-iness of the reply, and took him Into high favor. He afterward gave him a high command in the Irish brigade, and heaped him with rewards. He remembered remem-bered me, too, and after my father's death he married me to M. de Montaut, a gentleman of an ancient and wealthy house, and entirely devoted to the emperor, em-peror, in whose service he met an honorable honor-able death in 1814. I was but 18 then, and I have been an exile ever since,, for neither my brother-in-law nor I have stooped to make our peace with the Bourbons. (TO BB CONTINUED.) SCARES EVEN A HERMIT. Ktfauge Bounds In a Crown Point House Attributed to tthoit. . The celebrated Ddlaal farm, near Cedar Ce-dar Lake, iricl., where Sarriey Eiwang-er Eiwang-er and wife Pauline were murdered on April 8, has now the appearance of an old neglected hermitage. The plac is fast growing1 up in weeds and thick shrubbery, and the five acres of rich, mellow soil surrounding the house are sadly neglected for the simple reason that no one will at the present . stage of the game occupy the two little rooms therein. Since the murdered woman was found In the west room of the cottage, cot-tage, with blood-soaked clothes and hair, David Lewis, the old fisherman who inhabits the beacn of the lake, was hired by the Dolzal brothers of Chicago to occupy the house and keep the contents from being molested by passing tramps. All went smoothly for a few weeks, or up to a few days ago, when. Louis heard strange noises, which caused him to vacate the premises prem-ises after hearing the same program nightly. He declares the house is haunted, and will not occupy it again unless the matter Is investigated. The old fisherman, as a general rule, is very brave, having lived on the edge of the lake for years, and says he can face most any kind of danger, but the antics of the invisible nolsemaker is too much for him. After moving out of the house he located his dog tent again on a high bluff, where he could view any skirmishes that might take place around the celebrated little cot tage. Lewis has made up his mind something strange Inhabits the house, and neither love nor money could get him back again. He has seen and heard enough to convince him that he would rather earn 50 cents a day by fishing than receive 75 cents and listen to the pranks of his nightly, visitors. NEW YORK'S NAME. Not So Bad as It Would Have Been Had York's Old Names Survived. Now that New York's name is under discussion, it is well to be thankful that the contraction of old York's original Eurewic took place before the qualifying qualify-ing "New" was added, for if York is bad, New Eurewic would be unbearable. York's still earlier name of Eboracum would have gone no better with "New," and her Celtic name of Caer Ebroc would have been even worse than any of the others with a third element prefixed, The syllable "wlc," which has almost disappeared in the contraction of Eurewic Eure-wic to York, is rather the Saxon wic, meaning an abiding place, than the Danish wic, meaning a station for ships, surely an appropriate suffix for so great a seaport as the chief commercial city of the New World, says the Sun. New York is really not worse off, however, in the matter of its name than a good many other cities arer or have been. York, with or without the New, is better bet-ter than Mudtown, which is no unfair translation of Lutetia, the ancient Roman name for Paris, bestowed upon the city of the Parisll because ' its mud houses. London, by the way, takes its name from the fortified hill of the Britons where St. Paul's Cathedral now stands. Dublin is a name concealing two unattractive syllables meaning the black pool, and Liverpool is literally the pool of the living creatures, so called because, wild fowl abounded upon the waters of a pool near the site of the city. Brussels is conjectured to mean either swamp or thicket, and Rome may be merely the early Latin equivalent of the cross roads, from the fact that local lines of travel met at the Forum. Berlin Ber-lin Is conjectured to mean the short lake. Other guessers take it as the free and open place, the river island, and the marshy spot. BRAVE C1RLS. Two Instances That Left the Question In Doubt. The is an odd saying that one never knows a woman's true character till he sees her In a moment of danger and seldom then, might well be added. A couple of young ladies were on top of the Mills bu.lding yesterday, says San Francisco Ppt One walked boldly to "VNJjrtie".very edge of the roof and gazed steadily into the street below without the thrill of a nerve or the quiver of a muscle. "Brave girl, that," observed the signal officer. "Stout-hearted and fearless. She'll make some man a good wife. Huh! Look at that other one," he exclaimed in disgust, as the stouthearted stout-hearted girl's companion shrank back and cried nysterlcally: "Oh, hold me! I want to jump off!" "What a little fool!" said the signal officer. "A baby to be petted. Wants to jump off! You couldn't pull her off there with an ox team." They were just starting down the narrow nar-row stairway when someone shouted: "There's a mouse!" The brave girl who had stood unflinching un-flinching at the edge, of a high roof let out a wild scream and rolled to the bottom bot-tom of the stairs, while her companion laughed till she was almost hysterical. "Girls are all fools," declared the cynical cyn-ical signal officer. Worms Are Eating Away His Body. John Evart, a farmer living In Blackford Black-ford county, Ind., is afflicted as a man never was before. Thousands of red worms about the size of a common pin crawl about in his flesh and as yet no doctor has devised a cure nor even diagnosed diag-nosed the disease.

As the story goes, an Irish undertaker under-taker was laying out the deceased husband hus-band of a weeping Hibernian widow. The corpse wore a wig, and it was very difficult to induce it to stay on straight, as wigs ought always to do, even if they don't. The bereaved widow was called in to assist. "Go an' git me a pot of glue, Mrs. McGov-ern," McGov-ern," said the undertaker, "so that I may keep his wig where it belongs." Mrs. MocGovern set out after the sticking material, and after a time she returned. "Here is the glue for ye." she said with a sigh. "Mrs. McGovern, you kin take back the mucilage," said the undertaker; "the difficulty is fixed. I used a tack." Buffalo Times. FAD OF A FAMOUS JACKDAW. Bird Took Trips On Buses and Gave His Foes a Tongue Lashing. The Brixton jackdaw, which was found dead recently in the bar of the Angell Arms at Brixton, London, was a great celebrity in his own way. All jackdaws have fads of their own, and the favorite fad of this particular bird was to travel all over London on omnibuses, omni-buses, trains and cabs. He was thoroughly thor-oughly well known to every 'busman in the Brixton district; he used to take his seat on a bus beside the driver, and would chatter most volubly volu-bly till the journey to the city or elsewhere else-where was accomplished, when he would fly back to his Brixton home. He was a bird of strorg likes and dis likes, and when any of his master's customers failed to find favor in his sight he would assail them with the most embarrassing flow of language.

The furthest point south ref reached by man is - latitude 82.17, longitude 163 west, only 250 miles fur ther from the South Pole than Nan- sen's furthest point was from the North Pole. Thia point was reached last winter by the exploring party on the British Antarctic ship Discovery. News of this Important achievement achieve-ment has reached England through the relief ship Morning, which found the Discovery In McMurdo Bay, Victoria Vic-toria Land, on January 23. The Morning returned to Lyttelton, New Zealand, whence the news was sent out. The Discovery left Littelton about Christmas, 1901. She made Cape Adair on January 9, and thence skirted skirt-ed along ' the edge of the great ice barrier which runs eastward from Cape Crazier as far' as longitude 152.30, where an extensive glaciated land with lofty peaks was discovered. Returning westward, good winter quarters were found near Mounts Erebus Ere-bus and Terror, and the ship was frczen in on March 24. When winter had passed sledging began on September Sep-tember 2, 1902, and a number of sledge Journeys were undertaken In various directions, the most important import-ant being made by Commander Scott, Dr, Wilson and Lieut. Shackleton, who traveled south until they reached latitude 82.17 and longitude 163 west, and established a world's Word for the furthest point south. The trip was made under very trying try-ing conditions, and the party had to drag the sledges back to the ship, all the dogs having died on the out- 'ZEALAND ward journey. Lietft. Shackleton burst a blood-vessel in one of his lungs, and almost died from exposure. He returned re-turned on board the Morning. SHE MAILED HER TEETH. Embarrassing Position in Which Elderly El-derly Lady was Placed. A lady advanced in years stood patiently though nervously for more than an hour at the corner of Seventeenth Seven-teenth street and Monumental avenue ave-nue the other day. It was apparent that she was in very much of a dilemma, di-lemma, and was waiting for someone to relieve her embarrassment. Her patience was finally rewarded. It was the postman whose arrival she had been anticipating, but neither to give nor receive mail was the object of her wait. Instead she embarrassingly embarrassing-ly explained to him that she had hurried hur-ried to the box to mail a letter, and just as the deposit was about to be made she sneezed violently, dislocating dislocat-ing her false teeth, which, catching in the same hand that held the letter, in her agitated absent-mindedness she placed in the postbox by mistake. The postman returned her lost molars and told her it was not unusual to find many odd things deposited in this way, which somewhat relieved the mind of the old lady, who, replacing her teeth in position and thanking the carrier, hurried to her 3iarby home. Philadelphia Press TURNIP HAS HUMAN SHAPE. Peculiar Formation of Plant Grown Many Centuries Ago. This turnip, bearing a rude resemblance re-semblance to a human face and form, grew as far back as 1628, in a garden in the village of Weidan, near Bonn, in Germany, and for the illustration we are indebted to a curious old book. The leaves simulate hair standing up, or the head feathers of ladies in court costume. On the round part of the root were fantastic imitations of nose, eyes, and mouth; and by a very slight stretch of the imagination the entwined tap roots might be taken as the queerly shaped and disposed limbs of a seated female specimen of some stunted and mummified variety of the genus homo. ' " MODEL FOR THE WHITE HOUSE Mansion of Chief Executive a Copy of Monticello. Ex-Representative Jefferson M. Levy of New York, who owns Jefferson's Jeffer-son's old home near Charlottesville, Va., says that the white house is getting to look more and more like Monticello. The architects, who remodeled re-modeled the executive mansion recently recent-ly asked him if the mirrors in the salon of Monticello cauld be bought for the white house, and he wrote that while he did not feel like selling them he was willing they should be copied.

Rapid Settlement of the Wheat Fields Lying North of the 49th Parallel. 4 (From the Chicago Record-Herald.) - "Canada has anticipated a very heavy immigration this year, and she now has figures to show that she is actually getting it in a way to meet all her expectations. In the first four months of this year the doors of the Dominion opened to 40,672 persons, according to a report prepared by the committee on agriculture and colonization coloni-zation of the Canadian parliament. This is alnri twice as large as the immigration in the corresponding months last year, and fully three times as large as in 1901, the respective respec-tive figures being 22,482 and 13,393. "Most of these newcomers have been attracted by the wheat lands of the Northwest territories. They have moved direct to Winnipeg and they have turned that city into a great camp, in which they have been fitting themselves out for the last stage of their adventure for new homes. "Of the immigration of this spring a little over a third has come from Great Britain, the figure being 16,457. This is three times as large as the British immigration of the corresponding correspond-ing months of the preceding year, and it is within 2,500 of the number of immigrants that the United States attracted at-tracted from Great Britain and Ireland Ire-land in the came period this spring. As to the remainder of the immigration immigra-tion into Canaua 13,7'0 settlers came from the United States, a 50 per cent increase over the preceding year, and 10,445 from Continental Europe, a 40 per cent increase. "These 40,672 immigrants into Canada Can-ada may appear trifling in comparison compari-son with 297,070 persons who entered tbe United States in the same period, but they are proportionately more important im-portant to the country. Canada's population pop-ulation is one-fifteenth of ours, but her immigration is now two-fifteenths as large as ours. It is worth remembering remem-bering also that Canada's immigrants are almost entirely Anglo-Saxon and Teutonic race3, while our immigration immigra-tion is .now two-thirds made up of Romance and Clav elements." "Speculation is natural as to the future of Canada in her relations to the United States when her Northwest North-west territories are filled up, but the one absolutely certain fact of the near future is that the United States is to have a great competitor in the grain markets of the world." The above editorial article taken from the columns of the Chicago Record-Herald of May 26th, shows the condition of the Canadian immigration, immigra-tion, which as pointed out, has had a constant growth a marvellously increasing in-creasing growth for the past six or seven years, until this year, it is confidently con-fidently assumed the increase to Canada's Can-ada's population, by way of immigration, immigra-tion, will exceed 100,000. This is accounted ac-counted for by the great agricultural resources which abound there. It is no fairy tale, but the mater-of-f act experience of the tens of thousands bear ample testimony to the wealth and riches in store for all who choose to accept of the opportunities offered. of-fered.
