PLEASES PEOPLE OF WALES
Investiture of Heir to British Throne
With Title of Prince of That
Country Is Politic.
The Place of Honor.
Farmer Hodge was of the good, old-
fashioned school, and he always gave
a feast to his hands at harvest time.
It was harvest time and the feast
was about to commence.
Giles was the oldest hand and the
hostess, with beaming cordaality, mo-
tioned him to the seat by her right
hand. But Giles remained silently un-
responsive.
“Gome," said the hostess, “don't be
bashful, Mr. Giles"—he was just Giles
on ordinary occasions—"you’ve a
right to the place of honor, you know.”
Giles deliberated a moment, then
spoke.
“Thank you kindly, Mrs H odge,”
he said, "but If It's all the same to
you. I'd rather sit opposite this pud-
den I”
Tit for Tat.
Floyd C. Griscom, in an interview
1n New York, said of party dissen-
sions:
"They are animated by a nasty spir-
it, a tit-for-tat spirit; and they go
from bad to worse.
“It's like the case of the engaged
couple at the seaside dance. The
young man, a little jealous, 6ald cold-
ly to his fiancee at supper:
“ 'Let me see—was It you I kissed
in the conservatory?"
‘"About what time?’ the young girl
answered, with a little laugh.”
A critic Is a man who by the light
of his own experience explains to
others why they, too, have failed.
Life is a grind, but the world is full
of cranks.
COFFEE WAS IT.
People Slowly Learn the Facts.
"All my life I have been such a
slave to cofTee that the very aroma
of It was enough to set my nerves
quivering. I kept gradually losing my
health but I used to say 'Nonsense, it
don't hurt me.’
“Slowly 1 was forced to admit the
truth and the final result was that my
whole nervous force was shattered.
“My heart became weak and uncer-
tain in its action and that frightened
me. Finally my physician told me,
about a year ago, that I must stop
drinking coffee or I could never ex-
pect to be well again.
"I was In despair, for the very
thought of the medicines I had tried
so many times nauseated me. I
thought cf Postum but could hardly
bring myself to give up the coffee.
“Finally I concluded that 1 owed it
to myself to give Postum a trial. So I
got a package and carefully followed
the directions, and what a delicious,
nourishing, rich drink it was! Do you
know I found 1t very easy to shift
from coffee to Postum and not mind
the change at all?
“Almost immediately after I made
the change I found myself better, and
ss the days went by 1 kept on improv-
ing. My nerves grew sound and
steady, I slept well and felt strong
and well balanced all the time
“Now I am completely cured, with
the old nervousness and sickness all
gone. In every way I am well once
more.”
It pays to give up the drink that
nets on some like a poison, for health
is the greatest fortune one can have.

Though the Investiture of the new
Prince of Wales carries with it no
actual power over the people in his
nominal domains, It conveys some
valuable perquisites and titles not to
be disdained ever by royalty. The
earldom of Chester goes with the
principality and Is In a sense consid-
ered part of It. By a statute of the
Order of the Garter In 1805 the
Prince of Wales becomes a knight of
the order as soon as he receives his
title. There was an annuity of 40,000
pounds settled on the prince In the
course of Queen Victoria's reign, also
he gets the revenues of the duchy of
Cornwall, which sometimes amount to
100,000 pounds a year. The Princess
of Wales receives an annuity of 10,-
000 pounds, which becomes 30,000 In
the event of her widowhood. Both
the Prince and Princess of Wales
have separate households, and George
III even made general rules for their
regulation In a vain attempt to keep
the heir to the throne out of debt.
The title of Prince of Wales Is not
hereditary. It must be re-created
each time a new candidate appears.
Usually it is bestowed by patent and
investiture, though In a few instances
the monarch's eldest son has become
prince simply by virtue of a declara-
tion. The latter condition exists at
present and will exist until next July.
Though, as suggested, the ceremony
conveys to the Prince of Wales no
actual power, it is calculated to have
a powerful sentimental effect on the
■Welsh people, an effect that ought to
be heightened by the fact that in the
present Instance the pageant takes
place, for the first time in centuries,
on Welsh soil—that Is, in Carnarvon,
the birthplace of the first Prince of
Wales, afterward Edward II of Eng-
land. The traditionally independent
spirit of the Welsh people for several
centuries has ceased to exhibit itself
In militant rebellion, but of late It
has manifested itself in a big effort
to revive the Welsh language and
literature. It is said that there are
r half-million of people inside the
principality who never speak English.
Under such conditions, it is easy to
see how a formal, even If somewhat
medieval, acknowledgement of the
separateness of the principality may
appeal to the people at large and
mightily tickle them.

CONVINCING PROOF
OF THE VIRTUE OF
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound
What is the use of procrastinating in the face of such
evidence as the following letters represent? If you are a
sick woman or know one who is, what sensible reason have
you for not giving Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com-
pound a trial ? For 30 years we have been publishing such
testimonial letters as these—thousands of them they are
genuine and honest, too, every one of them.
Despite the fact that steel and other
metala capable of taking a sharp edge
are of comparatively modern origin,
razors of one kind or another have
been in use since an early period of
the world’s history. This is but anoth-
er evidence of the fact that “neces-
sity Is the mother of invention."
It Is a well known fact that razors
were used by the ancient Egyptians,
and even with the crude instruments
of their Invention they managed to
shave their faces. The Levitical code
expressly forbade the shaving of the
beard, and to this day many of those
who cling to that rule of life will do
no more than trim their beards with
sclBsors.
Many of the recognized authorities
are firm In the belief that the primi-
tive shaving Instruments must have
been made of sharpened pieces of
flint. Among the savage tribes of
Polynesia explorers have found that
the men of the tribes even at this
day In the world's progress use two
pieces of sharpened flint of the same
size to shave off their beards. Pieces
of shell and sharks' teeth ground to a
fine edge also serve these aborigines
for razors. The Romans of Caesar’s
time are supposed to have had razors
of the kind that were known to the
ancient Egyptians.

Mrs. S. J. Barber says:
“I think Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vege-
table Compound
is the best medi-
cine in the world
for women—and
I feci it my duty
to let others
know the good It
has clone for me.
Three years ago
I had a tumor
which the doctor
I said would have
to be removed by an operation or I
could not live more than a year,
or two, at most. I wrote Mrs. Pink-
ham, at Lynn, Mass., for advice, and
took 14 bottles of Lydia E. Pink-
ham's Vegetable Compound, and to-
day the tumor is gone and 1 am a
perfectly well woman. I hope my
testimonial will be of benefit to oth-
ers.”—Mrs. S. J. Barber, Stott,
N. Y.
Mrs. E. F. Hayes says:
“I w as under the
doctor’s treat-
ment for a fibroid
tumor. I suffered
with pain, sore-
ness, bloating,
and could not
walk or stand on
my feet any
length of time. 1
wrote to Mrs.
Pinkham for ad-
vice, followed her
_ dire of. ions and
took Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound. To-day L am a well
woman, the tumor was expelled and
my whole system strengthened. I
advise all women who are afflicted
with tumors or female troubles to
try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound.”—Mrs. E. F. Haves,
1890 Washington St., Boston, Mass.
For 30 vears I/v<lia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable (AjV
Compound has been the standard remedy for 1 \y
female ills. No sick woman does justice to (67
herself who will not try this famous medicine.
Made exclusively from roots and herbs, and
has thousands of cures to its credit.
Mrs. Pinkham invites all sick women
to write her for advice. She has
guided thousands to health free of charge.
Address Mrs. Pinkham, Eynn, Mass.
Mrs. George May says:
“No one knows
what I have suf-
fered from fe-
male troubles,
neuralgia pains,
[j and backache.
My doctor said
he could not give
me anything to
cure it. Through
the advice of a
friend I began
to use Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vege-
table Compound, and the pain soon
disappeared. 1 continued its use
and am now in perfect health.
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com-
pound has been a God-send to me
as I believe I should have been In
my grave if it had not been for Mrs.
Pirikham’s advice and Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.’’
—Mrs. Georoe May, 80 4th Ave.,
Paterson, N. J.
Mrs. AV. Iv. Iloush says:
“I have been
completely cured
of a severe fe-
male trouble by
|| Lydia E. Pink-
ham’s Vegetable
Compound, and
want to recom-
mend it to all suf-
fering women. ”
— Mrs. W. K.
Housn, 7 East-

_cinnati, Ohio,
Because your case is a difficult
one, doctors having done you no
good, do not continue to suffer with-
out giving Lydia E. Pinkham’s Veg-

has cured many cases of female ills,
suchasinflammation.ulceration.dis-
