LONDON'S ROMAN WALL.
Partition of it is Now Being De-
stroyed by Builders.
A porlion of the wall which wan
built around old London by the Ho-
tnans i.s now lwlng destroyed by build-
em. The part which has been laid
bare is seven feet In height and has
a thickness of eight and a half feet
and about fifty feet, of Its length has
been exposed. It is founded on gravel
and at Ihe bottom 1h a course of flints
and clay. Upon these are built up
two layers of stout burned tiles, of
the common Roman pattern, and then
comes rouRh-dressed masonry. The
tllla and the masonry alternate; in
the seven feet of the wall's height
■there are three courses of each, held
together by cement, which is so firm
that It blunts the tools of the work-
men who are endeavoring to destroy
It. Throughout the neighborhood
this wall serves as the fouudatlon for
modern buildings. The offices ad-
joining the excavations now compli-
cated by the wail's presence are In
pari! supported on it.
Some men try to preserve their dig-
nity in alcohol.
Proved Beyond a Doubt.
Middlesex, N. Y„ July 3.—(Special)
>-That Rheumatism can be cured has
been proved beyond a doubt by Mrs.
Betsey A. dawson, well known here.
That Mrs. dawson had Rheumatism
and had It bad, all her acquaintances
know. They also know she Is now
cured. Dodd's Kidney Pills did it.
Mrs. dawson tells the story of her
cure as follows:
"I was an Invalid for most five years
caused by Inflammatory Rheumatism,
helpless two-thirds of the time. The
first year I could not do as much as a
baby could do, then I rallied a little
bit and then a relapso. Then a year
ago the gout set In my hands and feet.
I suffered untold agony and in Au-
gust, 190;i, when my husband died I
could not ride to the grave.
"I only took two boxes of Dodd's
Kidney Pills and in two weeks I could
watt on myself and saw my own wood.
I dug my own potatoes and gathered
my own garden last fall. Dodd's Kid-
nely Pills cured me."
Rheumatism Is caused by uric acid
in the blood. Dodd's Kidney Pills put
(he Kidneys in shape to take all the
uric acid out of the blood.
Keeping Water Cool.
Stone jars with tight covers are
the best kind of vessel to keep puri-
fied water in, for ihey are easily fill-
ed and handled, anil may be set in an
ice chest to cool. Once cold tbe
heavy ware keeps cool for hours
even when taken from the ice box
Almost the only objection to boiled
water for drinking purposes is the
dlfllmilty of keeping it cool. This is
rather hard to accomplish in the sum-
mer, unless you put it in a porcelain
lined cooler.
If you could see as far ahead as
successful men you would find out
they take no chanccs.
TIE MONTHLY TRIM.
HEADACHE, DIZZINESS, BEARING-
f - DOWN PAIRS.
A Womnii Tell* How She Ru Itrrnmr Well
and StrotiK nfter Yearn of Misery
l>ti<- to Irregular Functions.
The fact that ouo woman is bright-
eyed. rosy-cheeked, strong and cheerful,
while another is pale, freak and de-
pressed, is duo more often than other-
wise to the regularity in the one ease
and the irregularity in the other of the
functions that are peculiar to the sex.
When these nro disturbed everything
goes wrong; pain and discortiforfc. are
feU all over the body; tho sensations ara
often terrifying.
" Fur four years." said Mrs. Davis re-
cently, "I suffered indescribable misery
from sick headache every mouth, ac-
companied by fainting spells, shortness
of breftth anil severepaiu in my left side.
There were also bearing-down pains, at
times so acute that T.could not stand up,
Mid my head was full of ringing sounds.
It seemed as if everything was going tc
hit me in the eyes. I was compelled to
lie down with closed eyes for hours to
get a little reliff. When I attempted to
arise everything would whirl around and
it wtould grow so dark tliut I could
scarcely see any Object.''
"Couldn't your doctor help you?"
" Five doctors in all treated jne, but 1
' got no lasting benefit. Besides I used a
lot of advertised remedies. The only
medicine, however, that- 1-ad the de-
hired effect was Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
and they are truly a godsend to women.
I did not have much faith in them when
I began to take them. I found myself,
however, so much better after using two
boxes that I began to believe in them.
They checked right away the divliuo
into which I was going. My troubles
kept lessening and liually disappeared
altogether."
" How long did it take for a cure?"
"After I had used several boxes my
health was till right. I had taken oil
flesh and was strong and hearty. I feel
today in spirits more like n girl f six-
teen than a woman of my years."
Mrs. C. H. Davis' adiiress is Citrmel,

Piuk Pills are confidently offered tc
women for the care of anaemia, chloro-
sis, painful and irregular periods, aud
all forms of weakness. They ore sold

Every houseReeper should kcow
that if they will buy Defiance Cold
Water Starch for laundry use they
will save not only time, because it
never sticks to the iron, but because
each package contains 16 oz.—one full
pound—while all other Cold Water
Starches are put up In %-pound pack-
ages. and the price is the same, 10
cents. Then again because Defiance
Starch is free from all Injurious chem-
icals. If your grocer tries to sell you
12-«z. package it Is because he has
stock on hand which he wishes to
dispose of before he puts In Defiance.
He knows that Defiance Starch has
printed on every package In large let-
ters and figures "16 ozs." Demand De-
fiance and save much time and money
and the annoyance of the iron stick-
ing. Defiance never sticks.

Young New York Nurse Receives a
Fortune from Artist.
Miss Helen Boyle, daughter of Cor
nelius Boyle of B^ychester and a nurse
at the Post-Graduate hospital, is the
sole heir to the estate of John Linton
Chapman, the artist, who died recently
at her father's house, aged 65, says the
New York Mall. The estate, including
many works of art, is valued at |60
000.
Mr. Chapman had lived with Mr. and
Mrs. Boyle for the last twelve months
of his life, and was much Interested in
Miss Boyle. The girl, who has a beau
tiful soprano voice, was accustomed
to sing to him. The artist was in
tensely fond of music, and owned
eight pianos in his studio.
Miss Boyle also took an interest, in
painting arid took lessons from Mr.
Chapman. So charmed was he by her
voice that in his will made six months
ago he left everylhlng to her.
Chapman was found dead in his
room with what he declared would be
his finest painting—a view of Naples—
almost finished lying near him. He
had been suffering from a complica
Hon of ailments for the last two years.
For two months he had been work
ing on the canvas, which measured
eight feet by lour, and had it com
pleted save for a small boat, the out-
lines of which he had sketched. He
intended to send this work to the.Paris
salon. He had other paintings in his
room, one, "The Appian Way." for
which he was recently offered $5,000
by the Engineers' club of Manhattan.
His "Palace of the Caesars," "The
Claudian Aqueduct," "The Bay of Na-
ples" and other large canvases had
won for him prizes at various exhibi-
tions were in the room.

Torture Thrust Upon Him.
The most startling of all Constant's
revelations is that describing Na-

In one of his earlier volumes, describ-
ed a talisman wrapped in silk an 1
leather which, ever since the Egypt
lan campaign Napoleon wore round
his neck. It contained, according to
Constant, the poison which the em-
peror took immediately after his sig-
nature of the deed of abdication. He
then sent for Constant, and thus ad-
dressed him: "Constant, I am dying!
could not bear the torture any more,
and the humiliation of seeing myself
surrounded by foreign agents. Th:y
have trailed my eagles through the
mire. Marmont has given me my
final blow. That Berthier should
have forsaken me cuts me to the core!
My old friends! My old comrades in
arms!" However/ either the weak-
ness of the poison or the skill ol
Yvan, the doctor, saved his llfa.—

IN COLONEL'S TOWN
Things Happen.
From the home of the famous "Keyh
bel Keeyartah of Cartersville," away
down South, comes an enthusiastic let-
ter abyut Postum:
"I was in very delicate health, suf-
fering from indigestion and a nervous
trouble so severe that I could hardly
sleep. The doctor ordered me to dis-
continue the use of the old kind of
coffee, which was like poison to nie,
producing such extreme disturbance
that 1 could not control myself. But
euch was my love for it that I could
not get my own consent to give it up
for some time, and continued to suffer,
till my father one day brought home a
packftge of Postum Food Coffee.
"I had the new food drink carefully
prepared according to directions, and
gave it a fair trial. It proved to have
a rich flavor and made a healthy,
wholesome and delightful drink. To
my taste the addition of cream great-
ly improves It.
"My health began to improve as
soon as tho drug effect of the old cof-
.fee was removed and the Postum Cof-
fee had time to make its influence felt.
My nervous troubles were speedily re-
lieved and the sleep which the old cof-
fee drove from my pillow always came
to soothe and strengthen me after I
had drunk Postum—in a very short
time 1 began to sleep better than 1
had for years before. I have now used
Postum Coffee for several years and
like it better and find it more benefi-
cial than when I first began It is an
unspeakable Joy to be relieved of the
old distress and sickness." Name

THE CONVICT DOCTOR'S SECR T.
Lisbon Physician Asserts He Has
Cure for Leprosy.
After ten years' imprlsonmen. in
thf great, penitentiary here, follofctug
a conviction for poisoning. Dr. Urtimo
de HTYeitas, one of the most di.ttin
guls'iied of European physicians, ilas
had his sentence of twenty-five years
commuted by King Carlos to simple
banishment from Portugal.
Throughout his long confinement
the doctor Is said to have jealously
guarded a secret he had discovered—
an-assured cure for leprosy. Accom-
panied by his devoted wife, he is now
on his way to Berlin, where his ar-
rival is eagerly awaited by all Ger-
man students of the higher branches
of medicine.
When the doctor was first arrested
Lisbon society received a shock. The
charge against, him was of poisoning
the five little brothers and the sisters
of his wife, who stood between him
and a large fortune.
During Holy Week the king signed
the commutation of his sentence and
the doctor is now free to pursue his
life work. A man is now living at
Coimbra, Portugal, who declared that
Dr. de Freitas shortly before his ar-
rest cured him of leprosy.—Lisbon

Much Ado About Nothing.
The late Gen. Sherman was one of
the men who haunted the cloakrooms
of tho house and senate, hungry for
a good story of any kind. It Is need-
less to say that he himself contribut-
ed largely to the general fund. One
day he related the story of an officer
who had made a great ado concern-
ing^ slight wound. He was brought
before the general moaning and go-
ing on like a man who was on the
brink of the grave. Sherman had the
bandages removed from the wound
and glancing at it in a skeptical man-
ner exclaimed: "Why, captain, they
came mighty near missing you!"
Golf Captures Siamese Minister.
The Siamese minister, Ph.va Akharnj
Varadhara. has fallen a victim to the
fascinations of the game of polo. He
is a member of the Chevy Chase Golf
club of Washington and spends so
much of his time on the beautiful
course of this club that the interests
of his government at Washington—if
it has any—must surely suffer. Mr.
Varadhara practices with great faith-
fulness with driver, cleek and putter,
and takes part in every golf competi-
tion which the club has. He offered
a silver cup to be played for on Dec-
oration day.
Mrs. Nation a Liberal Giver.

When buying loose coffee or anything your grocer happens
to have in his bin, how do you know what you are
getting ? Some queer stories about coffee that is sold in bulk,

speak out.
Could any amount of mere talk have persuaded millions of
housekeepers to use

the leader of all package coffees for over a quarter
of a century, if they had not found it superior to all other brands in
Purify, Strength, Flavor and Uniformity?
This popular success ol LION COFFEE
can be due only lo inherent merit. There
is no stronger prool ol merit than con-
tinued and increasing popularity.
If the verdict ol MILLIONS OF
HOUSEKEEPERS does not convince
