IlEALT11 AND RAITINESS, HOW IT WAS FOUND BY A TJAII- ARK COUNTY LADY. She 'had Sui;ered for Years from Weak.- eSS and r:1111 m la the compuented the trouble and adatect ta IlrIi7;3=rleTt" h alni°8t atIt:n1oe From Brockville Recorder.. On a prosperous farm in the township' of Montague, Lanark County, lives Mr, and Mrs. Joseph Wood, esteemea by ell • who,know them. Mrs. Wood. was boru in • the *Wage of ,14orrieltyille, and Spent her • whole life there until her marriage, and her many faleads are oongratulatng her on ,her recovery to health and strengh after years of pain and suffering, When"the correspondeut of the Recorder called at the •Wood homestead s.Wood, although now not looking the least like ari invalid, said that since girlhood and until recently, 0110 wastroubled with a weak baok which gave her great pain at times. As she grew ,older the weakness andpainincactased and for nearly twenty years she was neva fret from it. , About a year ago her misery was in- creased by an attack of sciatica, and, this, with her back trouble forced her to take to bed, whom she remained a helpless in- valid for over four months. Different doctors attended her and she tried manner - cats remedies said to be a cure for ber trouble, but despite all she continued to grow worse. She was advised to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, but she had dosed herself with so many medicines that her faith in the healing virtues ef anything was about gone, and she had fully made up bor mind that her trouble was ineur- able, .At last a friend urged hee so strong- ly that she consented to give tho Pink. Pills a trial. Before the first *\box was all used she -felt a slight improvement, vehich determined her to continue this treat-. ment. From that out she steadily im- proved, and was soon able to be up and about the house. A farther use of the Pink Pills drove away every vestige of the pains which had so long afflicted her, and she found herself again enjoying the bless- ing of perfect: health. Eight months have passed since she ceased using the Pink Pills, and in that time she has been en- tirely free from pain or weakness, and says she is eonfalent no other medicine multi have performed tbe wonder Dr, William' Pink. Pills have done for her. She says "I feel happy not only because I Sin now free from pain. or ache, but be- cause if iny old trcmWe should, return at any time 1 know to --mat remedy to look for a release." • Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are especially valuable to women They build up the blood, restore the nerves, and es:activate those troubles which make the lives of so many -women, old and young, a burden. • Dizziness, palpitation of the heart, ner- vous headache and nervous prostration speedily yield to this wonderful medicine. They are sold only in boxes the trade mark and wrapper printed in red ink, at 60 cents a box or six boxes for 82.56, and may be had of druggists or direct by mail from Dr. Williams' Medicine Company, Brilt\'i 'Itylcte.e-nf o7n1Ien ()noose Low Seats.' . One of the things that no man ever will ,Or can understand is that women- invari- ably choose the lowest chairs they can find, usually selecting for solid comfort one that is about six incites from the Boor. Schopenhauer's contemptuous allusion to them as the "short -legged sex" generally -occurs to him us the final solution of the problem, even though he be too polite oue- ivardly to hintat such a thing. That is by no means the real reason, according to a bright little artist. Women, she says, seem to know intuitively when they are looking their best, and they know that that rarely happens when they are sittiug on a chair sufficiently high to make the feet dangle stiffly downward, barely reach - mg the floor. In all the celebrated pic- tures of sitting feminine figures, the line from the waist to the knee is elongated a. far as possible, and it is to secure this grace aul, easy length of line, as well as for comfort, that women instinctively turn to the low chair or stool. About Repotting Plants. The owner of a fine palm which bed adorned her drawing -room all winter, lately asked a florist's advice about re- potting it before setting in the garden for the sammer. He examined the earth and the roots and said, as long as the latter were only just appearing at the bottom of the pot that it was large enough to hold the plant for a year yet. He then gave her some hints as to the potting, of flowers which may be of value in future to other amateur gardeners. He said that decom- posed manure sbould first be pet lute the flower -pot and then the fibrous part of sod, packed down closely,was an excellent foundation on which to add the earth. In Scott's Journal he records a suggestion of a gardener as the treatment of plants when one fears a frost; that they should be 'watered before StairlS13- Glasgow, which owns its street cars, prints Soripture texts on the cheap tickets for workmen.

The long run was drawing to a elese; only a few More miles remained, when, rounding a sharp curve, Grit behold the red lights of a through i'reight train on his track. Thoughtless of himself he shouted tO his fireman to lump, and had just time to, whistle "on intil,ms" and "toverso" when the crash lame.
