Suggestions How to 3 Suffei While no woman is entirely free from periodical suffering, it does not seem to be the plan of nature that women should suffer so severely. Menstrua tion is a severe strain on a woman's vitality. If it is painful or irregular something; is wrong which should be set right or it will lead to a serious de rangement of the whole female organ ism. More than fifty thousand women hjave testified in grateful letters to Mrs. Pinkbam that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound overcomes pain ful and irregular menstruation. It provides a safe and sure way of es cape from distressing and dangerous weaknesses and diseases. The two following letters tell so con vincingly what Lydia E.

It is stated in Washington that un der the Townsend rate bill if a rate is fixed by the commission it cannot be lowered by a railroad.

Hitherto a maximum rate has been the rule, but no such concession is made under the proposed legislation. Queer Result of Child's Prank. Whilst playing at Eltham, Kent, England, a child caused a remarkable fire by throwing a lighted match into the hollow trunk of a huge tree. A quantity of dry leaves and rubbish im mediately became ignited, and the interior of the tree was soon well alight. As the hames soared upwards a number of bats and owls were seen flying aimlessly in the vicinity of the quarters from which they had been so unexpectedly dislodged. When the outbreak was got under control by the firemen it was found that fully thirty feet of the interior of the trunk had been burnt out. The tree still stands supported mainly by the bark, which escaped the fire. Coldness of Spring Water. "It is a fact," remarked the head of a certain fascinating soda water department, "that spring water keeps colder very much longer than ordi nary river water, such as is served through Philadelphia water pipes. You can make the test, even in sum mer, by going to Fairmount park, drawing a jug of spring water, bring ing it home and putting it in your cellar. Not only will it not get warm during the trip to your house, but it will remain much colder than will hydrant water drawn and kept be side it for a number of hours. This is said to be due to the lack of warm animal matter in the spring water, which is filtered through the earth. At any rate, it's a great pity we couldn't have just such water here in Philadelphia.'.'-Philadelphia Record. Find. Relief from Such ing.

Mothers should teach their girls to care for their hair as early as possi ble. If a girl is coaxed into the habit of giving her locks a hundred strokes with a clean brush every morning and every evening and braiding them loosely for bed, the foundation for a future beautiful head of hair will be laid. Too many children are allowed to go to bed with their hair in a tou sled condition, only to have it jerked and tangled hastily when school time comes around. Such a practice is dis astrous to the nerves of a sensitive cliild and ruinous to the hair. Never allow one child to use the other's hair brush.-New York Globe. Household Hints. There is scarcely a family who does not relish an occasional pick-up din ner. Very sour anples used for a sauce or in pies take on a spicy flavor if a few chopped dates are added. Sour cream or milk may be used if there is no sweet cream at hand, by stirring in a little soda. Burn pine tar occasionally in a sick room. It is an excellent disinfectant, and it also induces sleep. You can save time by using a four blade chopping knife when chopping hash, slav?, or mince meat. You might have fresh parsley at any time if you only grow a boxful of it in a sunny window in the kitchen. You should never use paper, of any kind in the cooking. Thin cheese cloth or old muslin can always take its place. Some housekeepers always make a point of buying their scap in large quantities, as they say it improves with age. A good furniture polish consists of two parts of raw linseed oil and one of turpentine. Mix thoroughly by shak ing. Apply a thin coat with a flannel cloth and then rub thoroughly and briskly with a dry cloth. Keep a wire dishcloth to set in the bottom of a kettle while cooking any thing that may stick and burn. It will adapt itself to the shape of a ket tle better than a trivet or a pail lid. Of course, it must be kopt scrupulously clean and dry. Nearly all directions for making fon dant caution the c?ok against boiling it on a damp day. Quite as much of an obstacle against making it dry and creamy is to have a vessel on the stove throwing off a cloud of steam near the syrup. When blankets are to be washed for the first Time they should first be soaked overnight in cold water, and then rinsed. This is to remove the sulphur used in the bleaching. After this they should be soused until clean in a lukewarm lather made with boiled soap and water, and then rinsed well in clear water. One of the most delicious accompan iments to a green salad are cheese sandwiches toasted or sauteed. Grate the cheese, season lightly with salt, pepper and mustard, add enough creamed butter to transform into a pa?te. Spread thin between folds of white bread, then toast on both sides or saute delicately brown in butter. Serve piping hot. It is literally true that a new broom sweeps clean. If a new broom is ex amined the ends of the straws will be found to be straight and the brush square.

To renew the youth of the broom dip in hot soapsuds and trim ?he softened straws to the proper shape. GREAT PLAYER DEAD Joseph Jefferson. Prince of American Actors, Passes Away THE END CAME SUNDAY EVENING Distinguished Actor's Condition Grew Steadily Worse Saturday Night, When lt Became Apparent That the Heroic Struggle of Days Had Ex hausted His Vitality-Illness Origi nally Contracted by Discretion in Eating While on Fishing Trip With Mr. Cleveland. West Palm Beach, Fla., Special. Joseph Jefferson died at his home, "The Reers," at Palm Beach, at 6:15 o'clock Sunday evening. The end came after a day of unconsciousness and after a he roic struggle of days, which had ex hausted his vitality. At his death b?d were his wife, his sons, Charles B. and Frank Jefferson; his nurse, Miss Mabel Bingham; Dr. R. B. Potter, and his faithful old servant, Carl Kottler. The end was not a surprise to his family. Ever since his last sinking spell, which came after a rally on Thursday morning, and which was fol lowed by an improvement until Friday, the family has been waiting for the end. Mr. Jefferson's condition Satur day night grew steadily worse, and the family, who had retired, were sum moned from their beds and Dr. Potter was called. The patient's condition con tinued to grow weak all through to day, and the brief bulletins from the beside contained no words of encour agement. The sickness of Mr. Jefferson, which ended in his death-, was contracted, it te believed, while on a recent visit to his son, Charles B. Jefferson, at Hobe Sound, a few miles above Palm Beach, where he went to meet his friend, former President Cleveland. It is be lieved that from a slight indiscretion in his eating there, he suffered an at tack of indigestion. Since his return to his home, this condition grew steadily worse, with slight rallies, until the end. The body of Mr. Jefferson will be taken to Buzzard's Bay on a special train, accompanied by all the members of his family who are here. It will reach New York Wednesday morning, and the family hope to reach Buzzard's Bay the evening of that day. It was on April 1st that Mr. Jefferson went to Hobe Sound to meet Mr. Cleve land and other friends at the home of his son, Charles B. Jefferson. The party spent about a week there, and during that time there were frequent fishing expeditions. When Jefferson became ill he return ed at once to The Reefs and was taken to his room on the second floor of the cottage, which is only 100 feet from the ocean, and where he could watch the sea. The weather was favorable throughout his illness. Dr. Potter, the family physician at the Florida home, lived three miles from The Reefs, and went only occasionally to the bedside of his patient, feeling that Mr. Jeffer son might survive. On Thursday he was well enough to take nourishment and to retain it. At one time he called for chicken broth and then thought he was well enough to eat the meat. But this was denied him. Dr. Potter was so confident Thurs day at 4 o'clock that he told a reporter at the time that he believed Mr. Jeff erson would recover. JEFFERSON'S CAREER. New York, Special.-Mr. Jefferson was president of the Players' Club, In this city, ?.nd the news of his death was received with many expressions of regret. The Players* Club has had no member more interested in i cs wel fare than Mr. Jefferson, and none that worked more untiringly, with Edwin Booth, Lawrence Barrett, Augustin Daly, A. H. Palmer, Brander Matthews, John Drew,^3,. L. Clemens and several ethers, Mr. Jefferson signed articles of incorporation for the club in 1S88, and he was elected to the board of direc tors. In 1893, his portrait by Sargent was hung on the wall of the club, a gift from Booth and Barrett. After the death of Mr. Booth, in 1893, Mr. Jefferson was elected president of the club, and has been re-elected to that office at every annual meeting since. He .presided at the memorial meet, ing, November 13, 189S, at the Madi son Square Concert Hall, in this city, in commemoration of Edwin Booth's present 60th birthday, upon which oc casion he delivered an address, intro ducing as the speakers of that occas sion Parke Godwin, Tommasco Saivini Henry Irving and the poet, George E. Woodbury. On the founders' night, December 31, 1893, he delivered an elo quent address as president, recalling the-memory of Mr. Booth in simple and touching words. Mr. Jefferson was at every Founders' Night annually until 1890, when he was absent on account of illness; HOI was he permitted to be present on the recurrence of that occasion., wbich ab sences were sometimes caused by ill health, but principally on account ol activity in his calling. In compensation for his absence foi the Founders' Night, and in honor o? women friends of "the players," he was present and contributed to the pleasure of Ladies' Day whenever pos sible. The necessity of spending the winter in a Southern climate had pre vented him from being present in the club house, except for occasional briei visits, in late years. Joseph Jefferson was born in Phila delphia, February 20, 1829, and was .looked upon as the dean of the dra matic profession in this country. Want Union With Greece. Canea. Is?nd of Crete, By Cable.

Miss Patterson is to again face a jury composed almost entirely of mar ried men, only two of the accepted panel of twelve being single-one a bachelor, the other a widower.

New York, Special. -It became known Wednesday that Andrew Car negie's niece, Nancy, was secretly married about a year ago to a riding master named Heaver, whom she met at Newport. The story was confirmed by Mr. Carnegie. "My niece was married to Mr. Hea ver in New York about a year ago," he said. "Mr. Heaver was a riding teacher in the family. The family has no objection to the match. Mr. Heaver is an honest, upright young man. I had rather Nancy had married a poor, honest man than a worthless duke. We want no rich men in the family." Mr. Carnegie said that Mr. and Mrs. Heaver went to Europe immediately after their marriage. They returned a few days ago and are now on a visit to New England.

The origin of this is obvious, though probably few indeed of those who re7* liglously adhere to tiiQ superstition have paused to think that it dates from those times when famines were part of the regular order of life. Famine no longer troubles the imagination of men; but the broad truth under the foolish superstition r.emnins. Burning bread isn't any moro likely to bring bad luck than wasting it in another way. But wast iug anything in any way is extreme provocation to what we call "bad luck." If the grown people who habi tually waste do not suffer for it their children surely will-for they will follow the example set them, and rare indeed is It that a family can survive the faults of two successive wasteful generations. Waste is not generosity; thrift ls not stinginess. There are millions of Americans, especially among the poor and the not-too-well-off, who seem to think so.
