Watson (Continued from page five.) sistant physicians, seventy-six nurses and fifty attendants. In the wards where those are confined who are not injured by seeing visitors, one might imagine oneself in some good hotel, the corri dors, with their pleasant sitting rooms and groups of patients, with their sew ing, fancy-work, reading, etc., the pic tures, billiard tables, pfanos, etc., all give such a pleasant effect. No one would imagine that many of them were not as reasonable as those who visit them. One pathetic touch went to our hearts: a gentlemanly man, looking out of a window, said to another, "Those ladies are from South Carolina." One could imagine the homesick longing in the pooi wandering brain that made him think any whose appearance pleased him had come from his beloved Palmetto State. Returning from our tour of the grounds we saw the conservatory, with its fountains, its great palms, its lovely flowers and the thousand potted plants which are eagerly bought by visitors, so reasonable is their cost. This is one of the items that makes the amount of fuel used at the hospital between two and three hundred car-loads each year. Though this is but a small paitof what we would like to say, space compels us to write not much more, but it would ill become me to conclude without the warmest thanks to Dr. Albert Houck, asj sistant physician, known and loved all over this State. He spared no pains to give us every information in his power, taking time from his urgent duties to do so. If ever a man were in his right place, it is this good, great-hearted, tender Christian physician and gentleman. As L,. L,.

Such warning symptoms as sense of suffocation, hot flashes, severe headaches, melancholia, dread of impending evil, palpitation of the heart, irregularity, constipation and dizziness are promptly treated by intelligent women who are approaching the period of life. This is the most critical period of woman's life and she who neglects the care of- her health at this time invites in curable disease and pain. Why not be guided by the ex perience of others and take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound ? It is an indisputable fact that this grand old remedy has helped thousands of women to pass through this trying period with comfort and safety. Thousands of genuine and honest testimonials support this fact. From Mrs. HENRY HE AVI LIN, Cadiz, Ohio. lort Worth, Texas. —"I have taken Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta ble Compound and derived great benefit from its use. It carried me safely through the Change of Life when I was in bad health. I had that all gone feeling most of the time, and headache constantly, I was very nervous and the hot Hashes were very bad. I had tried other remedies and doctors, but did not improve until I began taking Lydia E. rinkham s Vegetable Compound. It has now been sometime since i took the Compound and I have had no return of my old complaints. 1 always praise your remedies to weak women."—Mrs. HENRY IIEAVILIX, It F. D. No. 5, Cadiz, Ohio.

" da i r a friend advised me to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege table Compound and it made me a strong, well woman. lam very thankful that I followed my frieqd's advice, and I shall recommend it as long as I live.

Verily, like St. Luke, this is to be "a beloved physi cian." - I have thought it well to say something in regard to modern treatment of the in sane. Until recent years, nothing more horrible than the manner in which they were tormented could be imagined. Confined in underground dungeons, tortured by whips, sleeping on straw, no vvonder that "Bedlam" was a word that conjured up nameless horrors and that irantic efforts were made by those con nected with the insane to keep them at aomc, even when to do so was danger ous What Howard and Elizabeth Fry ,wre to the convict and felon, that Sici ,iau nobleman, Count Pisani, was to the n lucent, helpless, afflicted creature*^ were deprived of man's noblest at ; : i »ute, the reason. Becoming intensely nierusted in their treatment, he gave up them his magnificent estate, Castel iiujvo, resigned to them nearly all his income, lived in a cottage and in the >Liinest manner himself, sought out the .visest and most humane physicians, still esei ving the right to do as he felt best, 11 many cases and, by his intelligence, xUk-nce, skill and love, proved to a jeer ing world that cure was possible in many and, where impossible, that the pa tient's condition could be greatly im proved and his suffering life made as happy as it could be by the use of gentle, humane methods, with confinement ir healthful conditions where the case might be a' homicidal or suicidal one. It was he who through the fondness of his patients lor "La Tarentella," the nation tl dance, discovered the beneficient ef feet of such movements upon the insane. Through his hospital the new treatmen; spread over all the civilized world until now we see the outcome in such institu tions as the one here described* And ir the faces of those in charge of these pa tieats, the self-sacrifice, patience, firm ness, gentleness marked on them is seec that God has led the right sort of mer and women to care for his afflicted ones. May He help them in their work.

"Brave Soldier, tell to me the story Of the little Iron Cross- Why you wear it—what it stands for Does it stand for GAIN or LOSS?" 11.

When the Southern Rights were threat ened, And the call, 'to arms' was heard, Straight I marched to the conflict And I questioned not a word VII. Marshalled were the forces 'round me And the foe were near at hand, 'Courage, onward' calls the Captain 'Fight for home and Dixie Land'!" VIII.
