? Miss Agnes Millerrof Chicago, speaks
to young women about dangers of the
Menstrual Period ? how to avoid pain and
suffering and remove the cause by using
Lydta E? Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
44 To Touho Women: ? I suffered for six years "with dysmenor
rhea (painful periods), so much so that I dreaded evexy month, as I
knew it meant three or four days of intense pain. The doctor said
this was due to an inflamed condition of the uterine appendages caused
by repeated and neglected colds.
"If young girls only realized how dangerous it is to take cold at
this critical time, much suffering would be spared them. Thank God
for Lydia E. Plnkhara's Vegetable Compound, that was the only
medicine which helped me any. Within three weeks after I started to
take it, I noticed a marked improvement in my general health, and at
the time of my next monthly period the pain had diminished consider
ably. I kept up the treatment, and was cured a month Inter. I am like
another person since. I am in perfect health, my eyes are brighter, I have
added 12 pounds to my weight, my color is good, and 1 feel light and
happy." ? Miss Agnes Miller, 25 Potomac Ave., Chicago, 111.
The monthly sickness reflects the condition of a woman's
health. ' Anything unusual at that time should have prompt
sad proper attention. Fifty thousand letters from women prove
that Uydla E. Plnkham's Vegetable Compound regulates men
struation and makes those periods painless.

"They that go down to the sea In
ibiiw," as a role, meet their fate un
heralded; the clamor that public rec
ognition casts ?Ter the hero Is not for
them.
A story of suffering, courage, and en
durance that speaks well for eTery
day manhood and womanhood lies be
hind this little four-line item that ap
peared in the daily papers one day
last week from Salinls:
"March 9.? Jacob Langtin. a farm
er living near Kailer's Point, hsd a
narrow escape from a devilfish while
fishing off the coast yesterday."
Jacob Langtin and his wife. Susan,
cultivate a small piece of land on the
south side of a little point that sticks
out Into the Pacific Ocean below Mon
terey Bay, known as Kailer's Point. A
good-isezed creek runs by one side of
their land, aud here Jacib has a boat
landing and several boats, for when
the occasion fits he loves to fieb off
shore. It is bis one amusement.
For thirty years, as boy and man.
Jacob Langtin followed the sea. and
now. well past his prime, he has set
tled down on the little spot of earth
he calls home with b!s wife to gpend
the remainder of his days in sunshine,
and within hearing distance of the
roll of tbe surf.
It was about a week ago that, return
ng one afternoon from a fishing trip,
he met tbe accident that turned his
iron gray hair a shade lighter and still
makes sleep a threatening nightmare
to his wife.
Langtin bad spent tbe afternoon fish
ing off shore and was slowly rowing
in toward tbe little lagoon where be us
ually ties up bis boat after such trips.
He was within a couple of hundred
yards of tbe shore when, happening
to glance around to take bis bearings,
he noticed a bunch of tangled drift
almost on his bow. He gave one oar
a twist to drive his boat closer to it.
Like all shore dwellers, his eye roved
over it to see If it contained wreckage
of any value. As bis boat swished
alongside he gave it a poke with an
oar to stir up tlie flotsam. Ilis eye
was on a large-sized box jammed in
between two pieces of piles. He gave
it a poke with his oar to see whether
it was fast aud tilled or empty. The
oar glanced on the side of the box and
struck a round, smooth tning that
looked like a burnished piece of tire
liose. The thing moved; a sharp ugly
looking beak reared itself out of tbe
ocean and two wicked round glazed
eyes stared at Langtin over tbe side
of tbe boat.
What horror was this? In all bis
seafaring experience Langtin had nev
er seen the like, and it was not until
a long snake-like tentacle flashed up
and fell lienvily across the l>oat that
be realized tl at be was fairly in the
grasp of tbe dreaded devilfish. In its
rsge the octopus swayed the boat In
the clutch of its powerful tentacle. It
required no effort of the Imagination
for Langtin to foresee his end should
he once be brought within reach of
that powerful beak.
He stooped and grasped a hatchet
that lay near him in the stern of the
boat. Stepping cautiously but swiftly
forward, he struck a savage blow at
the only tentacle yet within reach. The
tough muscles yielded like rubber un
der the axe. He knew that this was
but one of but seven or eight arms,
and despair almost overpowered him.
Again and again he struck, each time
severing picces of the terrible arm that
was trying to overturn the boat and
drag it down. The tentncle began to
weaken, but while he was yet hack
ing at it another shot out cf the wa
ter and fell heavily across the boat;
another followed It.
All this time he was dimly conscious
of his ;.vife running up and down the
beach, crying frenziedly for help. She
could see plainly the struggle that was
going on. and knew that something
terrible was happening, without at all
comprehending what monster It was
that had her husband in its grasp. In
her agony iip waded out waist deep
into the water. The sun was turning
to a red globe of fire in the west, but
it had lost its heat.
Langtiu now says that in this terri
ble situation his mind took in the min
utest details of the scene around him.
the green of the hills, the trees stirred
by the light breezes, the red sinking
sun. the sheen of the light upon the
water, the calmly neaving ocean, and
his frenzied wife upon the beach.
There was no help anywhere, and his
heart swelled in rage against the cold
helplessness around him.
If he was to be saved it must be by
his own strength and his own cour
age. He had never prayed and he did
not know how.
By this time the terrible monster had
two of its great arms around the un
fortunate man; one wrapped around
his legs and one around his body.
Langtln was clinging to the seat with
one arm and the other hand be was
hacking at the death-gripping arms of
the devilfish, especially where they
lay across the thwarts and offered him
th<* chance of a solid blow.
As tjhe creature seemed about to lift
Its repulsive body over the side of
the boat, Langtin found a chance to
strike it a heavy blow between the
eyes. It gave baeto slightly, but still
maintained the hold of its tentacles.
Not only that, but another rose, wav
ing in the air, and circled his waist.
The tentacles that now swept around
his body and ?ecmcd to be crushing the
very life out of him had no further
power to- daunt him He seized the
repulsive, slimy thing with one hand
and sank with it to the bottom of the
boat. With two powerful blows where
It bent across the thwart ho severed
it from the creature's body.
A few more blows were needed to
sever the remaining tentacles, and the
great devilfish, with inarticulate
noises, slid off into the water, leaving
an inky trail behind It.
It was none too soon. With tb? last
W?r taigiti nil t* bU knees ex
haunted with the nervous ?train.
For a minute his' wife had stood
waist deep In the water watching,
with fast-beating heart the terrible
struggle taking place Id the little row
boat. She had entered the water with
a half-defined Idea of wading or swim
mlng oat to the assistance of her hue
baud, so terrible was the agony of her
own inaction and helplessness.
A ha If -conscious gesture of her* has
band had stayed the rash set. -nd had
brought her to her senses. She hesi
tated but a momoent to eollcct her
scattered wits.
Then she hastened toward a skiff
tied to the Wharf. At first her tremb
ling limbs would scarce cupport her
but as she ran she gsthered strength.
Under ordinary circumstances the skill
was too heary for her to launch frotr
where it lay on the beach. Vet no*

fearful dream that the terrible devil

of the sea to grasp her husbaud.
HUNTING OCEAN VAMPIRES.
Monster Somctlnr* Kon?t>. the 5o!?w'
UtcomM the Hunter.
With the possible exception of the
basking shark, the "Sea Devil*' or
"Occan Vampire" is the largest of ail
the monsters of the deep. An unborn
ocean vampire, taken from the mother,
preserved at the British Museum, if
five feet iong. and before mounting
weighed twenty pounds. The mothei
measured some fifteen feet in length
and quite as much in breadth.
It is at all times a dangerous under
taking to attempt to capture one of
these monsters, says the Sunday Maga
zine, but particularly so in the case
of a mother accompanied by her off
spring. She is quite capable of re
versing the role of hunter and hunted
attacking and capsizing the boat con
taining her would-be captors, and of
seeing that none of them escapes alive.
"Imagine," writes the Hon. William
Elliot. In describing the exciting sport
he had in bunting ocean vampires, "a
monster from sixteen to twenty feet
across the back, full three feet in
depth, possessed of powerful yet Ilex
Ible flaps or wings, with which he
drives himself furiously in the water j
or vaults high in the air. through which
he skims like some enormous bird; his
feelers (commonly called horns) pro
jecting several feet beyond his mouth,
and paddling ail the small fry that
constitute his food into that capacious
receptacle? and you will have an idea,
though an imperfect one, of this ex
traordinary fish."
The so-called "horns" to which allu
sion is made are a singular feature in
this animal. The pectoral or breast
fins, much elongated, pointed, arched
in front, concave behind, stop short at
the head, to reappear as frontal ap
pendages projected on each side of the
head. These appendages take the form
and character of limbs, being flexible
and capable of grasping prey and car
rying it to the mouth. The "feelers."
as they are called, are sometimes three
feet or more In length, and are curious
ly articulated at the ends so as to re
semble the fingers of the human hand
when clenched.
In this way fishing boats and vessels
of a much larger size have been
dragged from their moorings and In
some cases capsized by the ocean vam
pire's having laitl hold of the anchor.
An instance of this kind occurred in the
harbor of Charleston, A schooner ly
ing at anchor, suddenly and seemingly
of its own volition, to the amazement
and alarm of those on board, started at
a furious rate across the harbor. Upon
Hearing the opposite bank its course
changed so abruptly as almost to cup
size the vessel, and it recrossed the
harbor to its former moorings.
These mysterious flights across the
harbor were repeated a number of
times in the presence of hundreds of
astonished spectators, who were ut
terly at a loss to account for the phe
nomenon. The migrations ceased as
suddenly as they began. Not till then
did the back and undulating flukes of
an immense ocean vampire, appearing
above the water of the harbor, dis
close the motive power that caused
it all.
One of the curious habits of the fish
is to throw somersaults, sometimes at
a considerable distance beneath the
surface, sometimes at the surface, and
sometimes in the air above the surface.
The reason for this peculiar practice,
which is kept up for hours, has. so far
as the writer knows, never been con
jectured. At times the great flsh will
throw himself bodily perhaps as much
as ten or twelve feet into the nir. A
young man student of Columbia Uni
versity. writing from Tort of Spain, de
scribes the flight of one of these sea
monsters, which passed completely
over him and the light boat he was
rowing.
Bedroom* In Tr?ri,
A remarkable hotel is in California,
on the road between Santa Cruz and
San Jose. California possesses the
largest trees in the world, and a
shrewd hotelkeeper hns conceived the
Idea of utilizing as a wayside hostelry
a group of these mammoths, thus sav
ing himself the cost of building or rent.
The hollow trunk of one tree, whose
circumference Is about twenty-two
yards, is arranged as a reception room,
and the surrounding space, sheltered
by a thick roof of spreading branches,
serves as dining room and smoking
room. A number of other smaller
hollow trunks muke comfortable bed
rooms, furnished in the most approved
style, and some trees at a little distance
arc occupied by the hotel staff.
Windfall For the State.
The State ol Minnesota Is enriched
to the extent of $10,000 by the recent

An iron cable which is claimed to be

ninety-three pounds.
The fence about the Fort Belknap
Indian reservation in Montana, which

long, has beeu finished. It probably ii?
the longest fence in the world and lias

to protect* the flocks of herds of the
Uros Ventres and Assinlhoines from
intrusion, as well as to keep them from
straying.
A pianist has to cultivate the eye
so as to see fifteen hundred sigus in
one minute, the fingers to make two
thousand movements, and the brain to
understand all these signs, as well as
direct all these movements. In play
ing Weber's "Moto Perpetuo"' a pianist
has to read 4541 notes In less than four
minutes, or about nineteen a second,
but the ej*e can recievc only about ten
consecutive impressions a second. So
that in quick music it seems that a
player does not see every note singly,
but in groups, probably a bar or more
at one view.
THE DEATH SENTENCE IN ENGLAND
Bo* Th?jr Mailn It Art n* a IMfirrnt in
(hr Good Old Uvyr.
The present agitation in England to
abolish the pronouncing of t lif* death
sentence in eases whore it is patent
that capital punishment will not follow
will probably meet with the approval
of most people who desire that the
law should lose nothing of its dignity
and at the same time have nothing of
unnecessary horror added. The Lord
Chancellor pleads for -the retention of
the form, saying that the passing of the
death sentence will act as a deterrent.
James I. juggled with death sentences
In this manner and got himself rather
badly disliked for it. Over the plot in
which Raleigh. Cohham. (I rev and oth
ers were implicated he had the less
puissant ones put to dentil and very
"bloodily handled." Cohluim's brother
was beheaded "like a gentleman." The
Bishop of Chichester, with the blood
of the latter still u|ioii him. went then
to 1/ord Cohham. Him the Bishop ex
horted to confession. Other prelates
were similarly engaged with Sir Wal
ter Raleigh and Lord Grey. Meantime
Markham, another of the conspirators,
had been placed upon the scaffold and
was about to bow his head to the axe
when the Sheriff was called away
by a Scotch hireling, and the prisoner
left to contemplate the axe for an hour.
Then he was led away and told to pre
pare for death at the end of two hours.
Grey's turn was next. He prayed half
an hour before the block, then rais.-d
himself to die? and was led away, the
King sending word that the order of
execution had been changed. So forth
came Coblmm, and having made his
last declaration, prepared to lake fare
well of the world, when the Sheriff
stayed the execution, and brought
forth Markham and Grey? all three
thinking that the other two had been
executed. They were told, after hav
ing suffered the agony of all but death
itself, that their lives would be spared.
Raleigh's experience wns similar. That
was how they used to make death sen- |
truces act as a "deterrent" in the good ]
old days. There would be danger for
those who ?trled a repetition to day.?

Her system becomes completely run

tarrhal nervousness.
If every society woman could know the

Every child born into the
world with an inherited or
early developed tendency to
torturing, disfiguring humors
of the Skin and Scalp, becomes
an object of the most tender
solicitude, not only because of
its suffct ing, but because of the
dreadful fear that the disfigu
ration is to be lifelong and mar
its future happiness and pros
perity. Hence it becomes the
duty of mothers of such afflict
ed children to acquaint them
selves with the best, the
purest, and most effective
treatment available, viz. : the
CUTICURA Treatment, con
sisting of warm baths with
CUTICURA Soap, and gentle
anointings with CUTICURA
Ointment, the great Skin Cure.
Cures made in childhood are
speedy, permanent and eco
nomical.
