Chicago, Ill, Oct. 20--As an ex- plosion of girl thoughts, impressions | and philosophy the diary of Miss Mary McLain, who became involved in a recent divorce trial as one of the prin- cipals in a "shadow kiss" comedy, Is believed to outstrip anything since the revelations of that other Mary Mc- Lane, who came from Butte. . Here are some of the things the blue- eved cynic wrote in her diary while at summer resorts and at home in Chi- cago = | *It's awful to have to talk to a kid that's silly about you when you really need rest. It takes young men an aw- ful while to get wise to a dilemma. "Those sad eyed men make me weepy. Ginger, all the fellows that think I'm cute are marriel or bald- headed, or both. "It's hard to be good when the first principle of life in the sweet pure air of the farm is to sell cold storage eggs for new laid. "I'd rather chase home a cow with cockle burrs in her tail through a wet pasture than go three blocks for a patent bottle of milk with all the cream in one end "I'm thinking of opening a manicure parlor for exclusive patronage--that means nothing less than $5. Ma says that the only people I'd get would be lunatics. That's all right, too. All the manicures would be dead if it wasn't for the lunatics. "If kisses were ten dollar bills what a merry world this would be! "Now, this diary is to tell just only the absolute truth, and it's only for me read, because one doesn't dare to tell the truth to one's friends, and one's enemies aren't worth talking to. 'I've found out what love is. It was in a book written by a man who said he'd been loved by more women than he had fingers and toes. He says love is a distemper. Gee!

Ask any doctor and he will tell vou that rheumatism is rooted in the blood; that nothing can cure it that does not reach the blood. It is sheer waste of money and time to try to cure rheumatism with liniments and lotions that only go skin deep. You can 8 ily cure rheumatism with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, which enrich the blood, drive out the pois- onous 'acid and loosen the stiffened, Among the thousands of rheumatic sufferers cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills is Mr. W. A | Taylor, Newcastle, N.B.' who says: "For a number of years 1 was a great sufierer from rheumatism which was seated in my shoulder and knee joints. 1 tried liniments and .blister- ing, but with no effect. In fact the trouble was getting worse, and my knee joints grew so Stiff that they would snap if 1 stooped, and I could scarcely straighten up. Altogether 1 was a terrible sufferer, and nothing 1 did or took gave me amy relief un- til 1 began the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I took the pills steadily for a couple of months and every ves- tige of the trouble disappeared. That was two years ago, and as I have had no return of the trouble I feel safe in assuming that the cure is per- manent." Nihe-tenths of the common ailments that afflict humanity are due to bad blood, and as Dr. Williams' Pink Pills actually make mew blood, that is the reason they cure so many dif- ferent troubles, such as anaemia, in- the ailments of girlhood and woman- ralgia, St. Vitus dance, paralysis and digestion, rheumatism, eczema, neu- aches, backaches and irregularities. hood with all their distressing head- Sold by all medicine dealers, 'or by mail at 50c. a box or six boxes for $2.50, from the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. NATION OF CENTENARIANS. Revealed By Old Age Claims. Dublin, Oct. 31.--Tales of the extra- ordinary longevity of the Irish peasan- trv have sometimes been received with some incredulity, but the British gov- ernment officials are now discovering that they are true . The old age pension act has just gone into force, and the claims which are being made are proving the con- tention of Ireland to be called a nation of centenarians. Under the act persons who are 70 years old or over are en- titled to a pension of $1.25 a week, and it is necessary for them to provide the pension officers with a satisfactory proof of their ages, before they are admitted to the roll of pensioners. Twelve hundred forms of claims have already been filed with the postoffices in Donegal, and among them are three which deserve special mention. Charles Kelly, of Burbane, in the parish of Inver, has submitted proof that he is 111 years old. What this means may be realized when one re- members that he was a year old when the insurrection of 1708 took place, and that he has lived in three cen- turies, John McGinty, of Donegal, parish, is 106 - years old, and Bryan O'Dontell, of Tower, in the parish of Inver, is 108 years old. The venerable O'Donnell is proud of the fact .that he has never uttered a word of English in his long life, and he cannot understand the language. He still wears the costume which the young bucks of a century ago affected in Donegal, buckled shoes, knitted stockings, with cordurov knee-breeches, and a swallow-tailed blue cloth coat, with a waistcoat with brass Thess three applicants are in excel- lent mental and physical health they declare that they hope to live to enjoy their pensions for many a year to come.

The Celebration is a Relic of Pagan Times--It is An Occasion When Every Woman is Her Own Clairvoyant. This is the nicht of Hallowe'en. When a' the witches may be seen. Some of them black, some of them green, : Some of them like a turkey bean. i And some of them are red. They may creep down the chimney long after midnight, prance around the room, and then sit up on the foot of the bed and make ghostly sounds. If they do, it's a sign that you've got 'em. : Hallowe'en brings with it certain customs, and many fairies. It serves a wonderful purpose, for with proper ob- servances any spinster can get out of that class, provided she can stand heroic treatment and dream. Young women who want to in the dark shadows the face of a future husband are sel- dom di inted. They generally hold a candle near a mirrow, all other lights in the room being extinguished. ery few women can sce the stranger, because they are busy looking at them- selves. In some cities the stunt is dangerous, for the looker may peep into the grimy face of a burglar. Black cats and pumpkins figure ex- tensively in the ceremonies, "The cats commune with the witches, and the pumpkins often resemble the future hus- bands. . Children, for instance, who are born on Hallow'en are supposed to have some supernatural power. Indeed, they have the faculty of perceiving and hold- ing short talks with spirits and freaks. The celebration is a relic of pagan times. It is an occasion when every women is her own clairvoyant. There are few records to show that men may glance into the glass and find a wife. Being more practical, the man lifts the glass to his lips and then goes out to find the real thing. When he does so he whispers a few things, with more or less success. If it happens to be the last call for dinner, he is accepted, after which the jeweler or the pawn- broker will sell him a diamond on easy terms. But there is a thorn in every Hallowe'en rose. The fairy in dimity may dream to-night that the young Lochinvar will ring the doorbell about 9 o'clock in the morning. When she hurries down to greet him she will find the bill collector. If the collector Joesn't call she is lucky. Roses play no small part in the fes- tival of love. Two American Beauties, at $1 per, may determine whether or not a fairy's sweetheart is faithful They must be placed on a chair, two feet from a glowing coal fire in the grate. If they are as fresh and as beautiful at 8 o'clock as they were at mianight the young man, faithfully, is all to the good. If they have faded the fairy should chuck him. There is only one case on record where a nian sought to commune with the spirits with the hope of seeing the fleeting vision of his future wife. He communed with the spirits in the bar. Going to his room at midnight he put a pistol and a rose under his pillow. Two hours later his friends slipped an Italian monkey ower the transom. Waking up to find the picture of his wife, the man saw the animal _ "If { you are a monkey," he said, communing | "you are in a fix. If you are not a | monkey, I'm in a fix." So he shot the | intruder. Since which time men have | passed up the search on Hallowe'en.

"Wouldn't it be awful?" . "It would," the minister admitted. The following Sunday evening he noticed a plainly dressed woman in one of the free pews. She sat alone and was clearly not a member of the flock After the benediction the minister has- tened and intercepted her at the door. "How do you do?" he said, offering his hand. "I am very glad to have you with us." "Thank you," replied the young wo- man "I hope we may see you often in our church home," he went on. "We are always glad to welcome new faces." "Yes, sir."
