Ce ¢ WOMEN WHO CHARM Health Is the First Essential Toward Making a Woman Attractive. _ MISS HULDA KUGHLER There is a beauty and attractive- ness in health which is far greater than mere regularity of feature. A sickly, irritable, and complaining woman always carries a cloud of depression with her; she is not only unhappy herself but is a damper to all joy and happiness when with her family and friends. It is the bright, healthy, vivacious woman whoalways charms and carries sunshine wherever she goes. {fa woman finds that her energies are flagging and that everything tires her; if her feminine system fails to perform its allotted duties, there is nervousness, sleeplessness, faintness, backache, headache, bearing -down pains, and irregularities, causing constant misery and melancholia, she should remember that Lydia B. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound made from native roots and herbs will dispel all these troubles. By correct- ing the cause of the trouble it cures where other treatment may have failed. Miss Elizabeth Wynn, of No, 205 &th Avenue, New York City, writes : Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— “For months I suffered with dreadful headaches, pain in the back and severe hemorrhages. I was weak and out of sorts all the time. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com d helped me when all other medi- cine fad failed. It seemed to be just what I needed and quickly restored my health. MISS ELIZABETH WYNN Miss Hulda Kughler, of No, 25, West 15th Street, New York City, writes: Dear Mrs, Pinkham:— “For months I was ill with an internal trouble.

CUTTING DOWN EXPENSES, The Logic of a Man Who Made Things Pay. “At a meeting of the Oregon Short Line directors,” said a Chicago broker, “E. H. Harriman made a fine speech on economy in railway management. At the end he told an appropriate story. “He said that a keen business man bought at a low price a theater that had long been unprofitable, and by economical management put it imme- diately on a paying basis. “But he was very economical. He watched the expenses with the sharp- est eye. “The first month’s expense account contained the item: “‘Meat for eight cats—to protect the scenery and properties. from the rats’ ravages—$2.’ “The proprietor struck this out, writing on the margin: “Tf the cats eat the rats, wherefore the meat? If they don’t, wherefore the cats?” item Changes in the Blood. In an endeavor to determine what chemical change takes place in the blood with age two French investiga- tors, C. Dhere and G. L. Grimme, have been examining the blood of dogs and rabbits for calcium content. It was noted that in dogs the proportion of calcium jn the blood decreased regu- larly with age, but no generalization from this can be drawn, inasmuch as rabbits’ blood did not exhibit a similar characteristic, the proportion of cal- cium varying greatly with individuals of the same age. DIET AND THE COMPLEXION. Be Careful When, What, How Much to Eat. Women who want to have a good ccmplexion should. take to heart the remarks of Dr. G. H. Fox on the sub- ject of diet and the skin. Dr. Fox de clares that more complexions suffer because of overeating than from al- most any other cause. “For every patient suffering from in- flammatory skin disease who is eating too little and suffering from lack of pourishment,” he says in the Journal of Cutaneous Diseases, ‘we meet a score or more who eat far more than they actually need and feed the erup- tion for which they seek relief. “In advising our patients what to eat it is wrong to say ‘Don’t eat this or don’t eat that, for one might spend an hour or more in making out an ex- Furgated diet list and still leave foods unmentioned which might if taken in excess, or at the wrong time, prove extremely detrimental. It is far bet- ter to name a few nutritious and easily digested articles. Limit the patient to these for a short time. “It is not what a patient eats so much as it is how and when and un- der what circumstances he eats it that tends to the production of an inflam- matory condition of the skin. Hasty eating, irregular eating and meals taken under the stress of excitement and worry are the daily experiences of many of our patients, rich and poor.” How and If all the world loves a lover it has a queer way of showing it at times. \ THEN you buy oatmeal always buy Quaker Oats It’s the best oatmeal made and in the twenty-five cent family package you get a beautiful piece of Amer- ican china.

Actually Carried Scuttle of Coal for the Maid. The late Thomas Bailey Aldrich of Boston wrote exquisitely graceful prose and verse, but his work was aever popular. At a dinner party in Boston a young lady said to him: “I have been reading ‘Two Bites at a Cherry,’ and I think it is lovely. Why isn’t it a big seller, like the works of Marie Corelli and Hall Caine?” “My dear young lady,” said the poet, “in writing the book as well as I could I did my part. If the public disap- proves—well, then the public is like the Commonwealth avenue housemaid. “A resident of Commonwealth ave- nue, a lady in reduced circumstances, is obliged to take in a few lodgers. Her housemaid is rather a frail, a rather pretty girl, and the other day she said to her mistress: “Tm afeared that there noo lodger, wot we thought so well of, aint no gent, after all, mum.’ “‘No gentleman, Susan‘ said the jady. ‘I am very sorry. Why do you gay so? “Why, mum, this mornin’ when he seen me carryin’ a scuttle of’ coal, he says: “That there scuttle’s too heavy fur a little thing like you,” he says, an’ he up and took it from me an’ carried it himself, just like a common foot man.’’ MOLES AND THEIR MEANING. Curious Superstititions Regarding Their Color and Location. According to an old authority a mole on the right cheek or right arm signifies happiness in love affairs; on the hight hand, a happy marriage. A mole on the left cheek or left arm signifies adverse fortune, particu- larly as regards love affairs; on the left hand an unfortunate marriage from a worldly point of view. Moles on the right cheek or arm, in combination with one or more on the left hand point to more good for- tune in love affairs than in money matters. A mole at the corner of the right eye preditts a rich and indulgent hus- band. A mole on the right side of the chin shows good fortune, long life and a happy marriage. A mole on the chin, if it be light yel- low in color, denotes that a woman will be a good housewife; if brown in color it portends a happy married life. A mole on the tip of the nose shows to a woman likelihood of much admi- ration and jealous lovers, in her deal- ings with whom she is recommended to exercise great caution and discre- tion. A mole on the right hand corner of the mouth is a sign of wealth; a mole at the left hand corner of the mouth warns the possessor to ,beware of treachery and a false lover. FED THEM TO HER DOG. How a Woman Smuggled a Costly String of Pearls. “Yes, we shall soon be doubling up,” said a customs inspector. “The busy season will soon be on us. The smuggling trade will soon be at its height among the tourists. “If you want to smuggle in a pearl necklace, saving yourself a duty of $40,000 or $50,000, do what a woman did last year, the vixen. “This woman unstrung her pearls —they represented a lifetime’s sav- ings—she placed each of them in the center of a small cube of meat, and she fed this mixture to her dog. We were wise to her and when she landed we searched her, bag and baggage. But what was the use? “She went home, killed the dog, re- covered the gems and by that one transaction made enough money to give her a life income of $2,500.” Exchange in Neckties. A South Penn Square business man has again evolved a plan of how to dodge wifey, but there is merit at- taching to it in this case. His wife insists on buying his neckties and dotes on lavender with red or green spots, or a pale shimmering nile green shot with purple. Rather than cause her any anguish by seeming to decry her taste in crav- ats, her husband most deceitfully starts for the office every morning wearing a tie of her selection. Once in the office, however, the traitor quickly exchanges the offending neck- tie for something quieter which’ he keeps under careful lock and key in his own private desk. It would be interesting to find out his wife’s sensations should she pay him a visit some day in office hours or should he forget to make the ex- change again before his trip home. French Law School in Egypt. Egyptian jurisprudence appears to be almost a misnomer, owing to the large part played in the law courts of the country by foreign laws and lawyers. Some years ago, in the days when British and French policy in Africa or elsewhere did not jog trot as smoothly side by side as they do to-day, the French even founded a law school in Cairo, and this at pres- ent has 224 students. Its progress has been so great that it is being paralyzed for want of space to grow in, and the French minister of public instruction has been sent to devise means for providing them. In this he has succeeded by an ingenius expedient. The French Archaeological institute, built on land bought for 4,000 pounds, but now worth 200,000 pounds, is to be sold for cheaper land of great- er extent, and on this will arise # new Jaw school, AWFUL EFFECT.OF ECZEMA. Covered with Yellow Sores—Grew Worse—Parents Discouraged—Cu- ticura Drove Sores Away. “Our little girl, one year and a half old, was taken with eczema or that was what the doctor called it. We took her to three doctors but by this time she was nothing but a yellow, greenish sore. One morning we dis- covered a little yellow pimple on one of her eyes. Doctor No. 3 said that we had better take her to some eye spe- cialist, since it was an ulcer. So we went to Oswego to doctor No. 4, and he said the eyesight was gone. We were nearly discouraged, but I thought we would try the Cuticura Treatment, 80 I purchased a set of Cuticura Rem- edies, which cost me $1, and in three days our daughter, who had been sick about eight months, showed great im- provement, and in one week all sores |had disappeared. Of course it could not restore the eyesight, but if we had used Cuticura in time I am confident that it would have saved the eye. Mrs. Frank Abbott, R. F. D. No. 9, Ful- ton, Oswego Co., N.

A man from town was calling at a farm house on business. Meeting a half-grown boy in the yard, he in- quired for the farmer who lived there. “Oh, he’s my dad, an’ you'll find him down in the holler with the hogs.

Sothern, a few days before he set out on his London venture, talked at a farewell dinner about stage pres- ence of mind. “When a dilemma unexpectedly crops up,” he said, “I manage, in an awkward way, to master it somehow; but I never acquit myself with the brilliance that marks the typical anec- dotes of stage presence of mind. “They tell of a really remarkable case that happened in Cincinnati. It was a melodrama. The hero in the second act stood in the bow of a ship, soliloquizing about love, while the waves rolled and rocked on all sides. “The waves were made in this way: Blue canvas was spread loosely over the stage, and under the canvas some twenty or thirty supers lay on their backs, kicking and rolling and beating about with their arms. “But it happened that at this per formance there was a large hole in the canvas. Through the hole, as the actor talked passionately about love the head of a super suddenly pro truded. The head looked about in a wild, scared way, and quick as thought the actor shouted: “Man overboard!’ “Then, when the head disappeared he said sadly: “ ‘Alas, the perils of the deep! An- other poor soul gone to his last re-| ward.” Scientific Precautions. “Wouldn’t you suppose that minister | would be afraid to perform such a scandalous marriage?” “Oh, no; he takes every precaution.
