L—“ I took Lydi* E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound for a female trouble and backache. It began just after my baby was born, and 1 did the best I could about get ting my work done, but I had awful bearing-down pains so I could not stand on my feet. I read in the papers about Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and the good, it was doing other women, and f have got dandy results from it and will always rec ommend it You can use these facts as a testimonial if you wish. ”—Mrs. Herbert L. Cassen, 18 Meni Court, Providence, R. L Ohio woman for three years could hardly keep about and do her housework she was so ill. Made well by Liydia E. Pink ham’s Vegetable jf’ojp pound: Fayette, 0.—“ For aboht three years I was very nervous and had backache, sideache, dragging-down pains, could not sleep at night, and had no appe tite. At times I could hardly do my housework. I got medicine from the doctor but it did not help me. I saw Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound advertised in a newspaper and took it with good results, and am now able to do my housework. I recommend your medicine to my friends and you may publish my testimonial.”—Mrs. Chester.A. Ball, R. 15, Fayette, Ohio. An Illinois woman relates her experience: Bloomington, 111. — ** I was never very strong and female trouble kept ma so weak I bad no interest in my housework. I had such a backache I could not cook a meal or sweep a room without raging with pain. Rubbing my 1 back with alcohol sometimes eased the pain for a few hours, but did not stop it. I heard of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and six bottles of it have made me as strong and healthy as any woman ; and I give my thanks to it for my health.Mrs. J.A.McQuitty, 610 W.Walnut St,Bloomington, 111. ftie conditions described by Mrs. Cassen, Mrs. Ball, and Mrs. McQuitty will appeal to many women who struggle on with their daily tasks in just such con- ditions—in fact, it is said that the tragedy in the lives of some women is almost beyond belief. Day in and day out they slave in their home* for their families —and beside the daily routine of housework, often m^ke clothes for them selves and for their children, or work in their gardens, all the while suffering from those awful bearing-down pains, backache, headaches, nervousness, the blues, and troubles which sap the very foundation of life until there comes a time When nature gives out and an operation seems inevitable. If such LIVING SOLDIERS WILL HONOR DEAD COMRADES WHO LIE IN ARLINGTON CEMETERY. women would only profit by the experience of these three women, and remem ber that Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is the natural restoraf for such conditions it may save them years of suffering and unhappiness. There is hardly a neighborhood in any town or hamlet in the United States — wherein some woman does not reside wno has been restored to health by this famous medicine. Therefore ask your neighbor, and you will find in a great many cases that at some time or other she, too, has been benefited by taking it, and will recommend it to you. For more than forty years this old-fashioned root and herb medicine hasbeen restoring sufferingwromen to health and strength. Lydia E.

Children For ?Net Contents ISFluid Dracj Nation’s Burial Place Will Be at the Height of . its Beauty When Vet erans Deck Its Many Graves With Flowers. By EDWARD B. CLARK. Washington.—Preparations are be ing made by the living soldiers of America’s wars to honor their dead comrades" who He in the great na tional cemetery at Arlington which stands on Potomac hill overlooking the capital of the country. For weeks pi^st there have been bur ials of the dead of the great war ev ery day in Arlington, ^he^bund of taps is heard through tffe grt$t for est trees and the volleys in honor Of the dead are heard across the river. This year the surviving veterans of the Civil war, the Indian wars, and the Spanish war will join with the members of the American Legion in doing honor to those who have an swered their last roll call on earth. In nil the tmriaKplaces near the capital, notably in Arlington, the graves are guarded by great trees, many of them of more than a century’s growth. The oaks are magnificent and are holding their own against the en croachments on all sides of a civili zation which in some parts of the country h^s been fatal to one of the noblest TTf our trees. When Memorial day shall come the rose season will be found at its height, and with the roses will be blossoming all the summer flowprs which will have come to take the place of the spring offerings of the forsythia, the crocus, the hyacinth and fhe tulip. Not a Mournful Place. Arlington is m>t altogether a mourn ful id ace. Association in a way makes It sad, but the breeze always is rherv, the sunshine generally, the view is appealing and the singing birds refuse to forsake it because they have learned that in God's ucrejt they are safe from persecution. — The red bird, known variously as the Kentucky cardinal, the Virginia, nightingale and the grossbeak, is in Arlington winter and summer. With it as a close companion is the tufted titmouse in its confederate gray. The cardinal whistles as cheerily as any fife at reveille, while the titmouse calls “Peter, Peter, Peter,” all day. long and never loses heart because Peter falls to respond. There are 5,000 Confederate dead sleeping in Arlington. The monument to the Confederates is one of the most beautiful memorials in the United States. It was the work of the sculp tor, Moses Ezekiel, whi>se body was brought from Italy to rest in Arling ton. Ezekiel was a cadet at the Vir ginia Military institute at the out break of the Civil war. He took part In the battle of Newmarket. Sheridan, Schofield, Harney and j Crook are buried in Arlington. Not far fronj the graves of Sheridan and Schofield there Is at rest a Southern soldier of fame who lived to wear the blue once more after the Civil war was at an end. Joseph" Wheeler, a general officer in the Confederate serv ice, re-entered the federal service at the time of the Spanish war and died as a major general of the U. S. army. He was a graduate of West Point, had t|prn .the blue and the pray, and then the blue again. Memorial Day Plans. Memorial exercises In the national cemetery always wen; held in the open air with forest trees as the pil lars of the temple. So it. is in part today, but the government recently erected a marble-walled arnrphitheater at Arlington as a memorial to the soldiers and sailors of the Civil war. In this amphitheater some-of the serv-. Ices of .memorial win he held. K seems doubtful to' many whether the intrusion of the amphitheater into na ture's garden avas altogether- a justi fiable act of man. The American Legion and other or ganizations of- veterans of the great war and the^ societies of other wars in which Americans engaged are working together in preparation for the next Memorial day. -There--are more graves than "tver to he decked with flowers, and as the years go on the number of moufids will be multi plied, while th(T ranks of those who hear the floj<C¥ra will be depleted.

Yet it is more reasonable for an infant to sleep with grown-ups than to use a man’s Medicine In an attempt to regulate the delicate organism of that same infant. Either practice is to be shunned. Heither would be tolerated by specialists in children’s diseases. Your Physician will tell you that Baby’s medipine must be prepared with even greater care than Baby’s food. A Baby’s stomach when in good health is too often disarranged by improper food. Could you for a moment, then, think of giving to your ailing child anything but a medicine tspecially.prepared for Infants and Children ? Don’t be deceived. Make a mental note of this:—It is important, Mothers, that you should remember that to function well, the digestive organs of your Baby must receive special care. Ho Baby is so abnormal that the desired results may be had from the use of medicines primarily prepared for grown-ups. 1 MOTHERS SHOULD READ THE BOOKLET THAT IS AROURO EVERY BOTTLE OF FLETCHER'S CAST0RUI GENUINE CASTORIA Bears the Signature of Exact Copy of Wrapper.

In the old ecclesiastical songs the voice which sang the chant melody, and around which other parts grouped themselves was called the “tenor.” This task had to be intrusted'to the person with the highest or loudest voice. The word Is derived from the Latin teneo (I hold)' and meant noth ing more than that the tenor "carried the tune.’’ Voices were not formerly distributed' ns at present. \V. J. Henderson in his “Early History of Ringing” says: ‘“We should undoubtedly, be amazed to find Julius Caesar singing soprano or Achilles contralto, but tjie opera go ers of the Seveneteenth century would have been much astonished if either of them had been a barytone <>r a bass. At most they could have been tenors, but neither In that* case would have heermTF'prlricipa 1 personages, in the drama.
