Morin, 335 Ontario St., Montreal, writes to Mrs. Pinkham : " I was in very poor health and doc- tored for months, receiving very little benefit. I had lost all ambition, was nervous, and subject to dizzy spells and painful periods each month. "A friend suggested Lydia E. Pink - ham's Vegetable Compound as the proper medicine for me. I procured a bottle of this remedy and began tak- ing, and before it was finished, I felt so much better that I continued its use and gave it a thorough test, with the result I am to -day well and a much healthier girl than I was three years ago. I have no more painful periods, dizziness or nervous troubles," FACTS. F I:,-„ SICK WO ,•',i N. For thirty years Lydia E.

On the eastern side of the rock of Gibraltar there is a curious looking white pateh which recently led an Am- erican tourist to ask whether the rock was being armor -plated. It is really a catchment for rain water to increase the serve water on the rock. The catch- ment covers ten acres. It is made of galvanized corrugated iron fixed to piles and driven deop into the shady slopes above the village of Catalan. The water collected at the foot of the catchment runs through the rock into a tunnel two thousand feet long and is delivered into - the reservoirs on. the western side.

A Condition Which Makes Motoring a Delight in France. There are many sections of the chief roads in 'France which run for miles in an absolutely straight line. The country is invariably rolling and it is nothing unusual. to Come to the summit of some lull and see the road stretching away in front as straight as a die as far as the eye can reach. Another feature of the French roads is the entire absence of fences, says the Outing Magazine. Fields come to the very edge of the grass bordering the rows of trees that line the roads and in Normandy and Britanny, especially, ev- ery foot of the acerege seems to be tilled in many places both gutters of the road on hills are carefully paved with stones so that the water may be carried off without cutting ruts in the macadam at the edges. Motoring is ideal when it ern be en- joyed under mete after mile of arched foliage, past fertile fields and pictur- esque cottages. AS ♦ • Made by a Convict. In the gardens attached to the Houses of Parliament. Melbourne, there is an elaborately sculptured fountain, embellished w ith human figures, birds, flowers, and various other ornamental work in stone. This fountain has a remarkable history. It was constructed entirely by a con- vict named William Stanford, with- in the walls of the Melbourne jail. When a young man of twenty-one, Stanford, in a weak moment, joined a band of bushranging desperadoes, was captured and sentenced to terms of imprisonment amounting in the aggregate to twenty-one years. One day Colonel Champ, the governor of Melbourne jail, was astonished to find a beautiful angelic figure which Stanford had carved out of a meat bone. He showed it to the leading sculptor of Melbourne, who declared that the young man was a natural genius. The sculptor visited the jail and gave Stanford some lessons in the art. A petition for pardon was influentially signed, and Stanford was released. He became one of tha most successful sculptors in Mel bourne, and completely lived down his juvenile criminal escapade.—Dun- dee `Advertiser.'

Signor Arditi, the well-known musical conductor, tells the following adventure he had with a bank cashier in an Amer- ican city. He wisned to have a cheque cashed; but, since, the bank cashier did not know Signor Arditi, he told him he must get himself identified before he could receive any money. "But 1 do not know anyone here," pro- tested the musical conductor. "I am very sorry," said the cashier, Signor Arditi thought for a few mo- ments, and presently said: "Do you ever attend the opera, young man?" "Frequently," void the cashier. "I am very fond of music." "Then you must know me,"'and, tak- ing off his hat and turning his back upon the cashier, Signor Arditi beat time vig- orously to an imaginary orchestra. "Oh, yea!" exclaimed the cashier. "I know the back of your hea.d very well. You are Signor Arditi," And he handed out the money to the musician without further ceremony.

The Congo Free State contains about 800,000 square miles of territory, and a population variously estimated at from twenty to thirty millions. In favor of the government it may be said that, along commercial lines, the state is being greatly developed, an important step in this direction being the suppression of the Arab slave trade. The capital of the state is Boma, a city of several thousand people, situated forty-five miles from the mouth of the Congo River. Just below the first great rapids, an impass- able barrier to ocean vessels, is located Matadi, a city of about 3,000 people, and the point from which is shipped most of the rubber and ivory brought down from the interior. From this city a railroad extends 240 miles to Leopoldville, from which point the river is navigable for 900 miles to Stanley Lake. From Stan- ley Falls to Lake Tanganyika, a distance of over 700 miles, a railroad is being con- structed which will connect ultimately with the Cape to Cairo railroad, thus opening up a vast district, and furnishing much needed additional transportation facilities for the enormous lumber and mining interests of the state.— C.

The Island of Rodah, in the Nile, where tradition says Moses was found in the bulrushes, has just been connected with Cairo by the largest bridge ever built over the Nile in that section. The Rodah bridge, wile& took three years to build, is 1,740 feet long and 85 feet broad. There are fourteen spans, be- sides a turning span of 209 feet, which is swung by an electric motor, and which when opened gives a clear 70 feet on either side for the passage of ves- sels. At a recent official test ever, square yard of the bridge was subjected to a weight of 400 pounds. In order to give this weight the footpaths were pied with sand, while twenty tram ears load- ed with cement, twenty-four water carts filled with sand and eight traction en- gines were kept on the bridge a whole day. The deflection of each span was noted, and after that the whole of the huge traffic was driven at full speed across the bridge.—From Zion's Herald. � o C German tourists head the list in.
