A HEALTHY WIFE 4 till Writes of Dr. Hartman’s Free Home Treatment. Mrs. F. M. Budgett, 819New street, Knoxville, Tenn.. writes a letter for publication, which she desires all her suffering sisters to read. She writes : "When I was Iff years old, I suffered with female weakness of the worst kind and spent all I had trying to get cured. I tried several of t'iO best physi cians, bub they all failed to cure me. I gave up all hope of re covery. Finally fii\ Dr. Hartmin’a treatment was recommended to me by my teacher, who also lent me the money to get the medicine which Dr. Hartman prescribed. I took the treatment and it cured me. I am now a heal thy woman, weighing 104 pounds, and I owe it all to Dr. Hartman’s treatment. I am sure I would not be living now If It had not been for his treatment. I cannot help recom mending it to all sufferers, and will answer all inquiring letters." Any woman wishing to apply for Dr. Hartman’* free homo treatment has only to send age. symptoms, du ration of disease, when the doctor will prescribe the proper treatment. The medicine can be obtained by each patient at the nearest drug store. Each woman should have a copy of Dr. Hartman’a latest book on the diseases peculiar to women, called "Health and Beauty."

Jumped Into the Ocean and Swam Ashore to l^lnd Her Habe—Failing to Recover the Child, She Lived Alone on the Island For Eighteen Years. Off the coast of southern California lie tho Santa Barbara Islands. They look very near the mainland on the map, as if it would only be a pleasant afternoon’s work to explore them in a rowboat, but in fact they arc far enough away from tbe homes cud haunts of men to have been tho scene of a history stranger, lonelier and more pitiful than the one Do Foo "made up’’ about Rob inson Crusoe. These islands have been long unin habited, visited only by grazers who keep sheep on some and by trappers aft er otter and seal. But Indians used to make their home on tho larger islands, and it was when the last of the tribe were being removed to tho mainland that an accident occurred which caused a woman to spend ou San Nicholas 13 years utterly alone. lu 1835 Spanish missionaries wero busy in southern California civilizing, teaching and converting the Indians— nut such degraded beings as aro now to be seen ou tho western coast, but a skillful people who learned well how to build and farm. Tbe fathers had done much with the coast Indians and now turned their eyes to the little tribes on the rocky islands out at sea. They made arrangements to bring them one after another to the mainland. The Indians seem to have come willingly, hut in one case the embarkation was effected with much difficulty ou account of a storm. A schooner under the command of a Captain Williams had gone to San Nicholas—San Nicholas lies 70 miles out at soa—to bring away the Indians, about 20 of them, who lived there. A tempest fell upon the island as the schooner drew near, and to land was very difficult. All was wild hurry and confusion. Tho vessel was in danger, and the Indians were mukiug a "flit ting” for life. So it was not remarkable that as they were putting out to sea one young mother should find her child had been left behind. She thought, it bad bei u brought aboard by a sailor. Wheu sho discovered the truth, she was frantic. Sho prayed tho captain to turn hack, but ho said tho storm was too dangerous; they might all he ship wrecked and drowned. The poor girl grew desperate, and she did what many a mother would be driven to do in liko case—jumped overboard. Sho could swim, and the last that was seen of her she was striking out bravely, making her way back to her deserted home and her baby. But only a moment was she visible. No attempt was made to rescue her. The schooner landed its exile's at San Pedro. At that time vessels were very few on tho coast, and Iho schooner was engaged for two trips, which, it was considered, must ho made before sho could return to look up tho lost woman. Ou the latter of these trips she was wrecked, and there was nothing bigger than canoes and fishing Louts left ou all tho lower coast. Seventy miles in an open boat no man cared to undertake. Some said both woman and child must by this time bo dead, some that the mother never could have reached shore. Father Gonzales, however, was one per son who was not satisfied, but 15 years passed before he could get anything done. The details of the searches made can not be given here, hut Thomas Jeffries, a man who for $200 made the first effort, did not find her. But he found so many seals and otters that other schooners made several trips there in the next few years, carrying hunters and bringing home siMjils. At last on one of these ex peditious u Captain Nidiver found the print of nuked human foot in the sand. "There," he said, "has passed tho lost woman." And ho vowed he would not leave till he found her. He and his men now ruked the island as with a comb. Soon they came on au unfinished dress of birds’ breasts, a beautiful thing of wonderful workmanship. It was iu a basket of rushes hanging iu a tree. Near u spring dried fish and blubber were bidden iu the recks. At last Nidiver himself saw the woman, wearing a dress, low necked and sleeveless, like the one in the basket. When Hie saw him, she first started to run, then stop ped and met him with friendliness. No one could talk to her, hut with tho most touching hospitality sho set about getting a meal for him and his men. She bad various little neat pens and shelters iu different places. The spddest thing is yet to he told. Wheu they took he/ (o the mainland, many Indians were brought to her, and sho scanned each face eagerly, but no cue who could even talk to her was ever found. Her little tribe was scattered and absorbed among other "mission In dians” us raindrops are lost iu the sea. She was treated with all teuderucss by Captain Nidiver’s Spanish wife, who kept her and would not allow b< r to be made a show of, but when no hu man soul could be found who knew even her tongue sho begun to droop. She loved Mrs. Nidiver’s children de votedly and would tell over and over by signs how she had looked and looked for her baby and never found it. Tbe lady came to love her much, and when she grew weak she sent for seal’s meat to try to tempt her appetite with the food she was used to. The sick wo man putted her bauds for "Thank yott" bnt she would not eat. 8oou she died. Her beautiful feather gowns were sent to tho pope.
