FIVE MONTHS IN. HOSPITAL. Discharged Because Doctors Could Not Cure. Levi P. Brockway, S. Second Ave., Anoka, Minn., says: “After lying for five months in a hospital I was dis- charged as_ incur- able, and given only six months to live. My heart was affect- ed, I had smother- ing spells and some- times fell uncon- scious. I got so I ecvldn’t use my a \s, my eyesight was impaired and the kidney secretions were badly dis- ordered. I was completely worn out and discouraged when I began using Doan’s Kidney Pills, but they went right to the cause of the trouble and did their work well. I have been feeling well ever since.” Sold by all dealers. 50 cents a box. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y¥. Fish Stories. “She’s back from Europe.

Then he was so bad that his face and head were nothing but one sore and his ears looked as if they were going to fall off, so we tried’ another doctor for four months, the baby never getting any better. His hand and legs had big sores on them and the poor little fellow suffered so terribly that he could not sleep. After he had suffered six months we tried a set of the Cuticura Remedies and the first treatment let him sleep and rest well; in one week the sores were gone and in two months he had a clear face. Now he is two years and has never had eczema again. Mrs. Louis beck, R. F.

IDEAL Simple Precautions That Will Pre- serve Delicacy and Beauty—Con- sistent Use of Glove an Abso- lute Necessity. The ugliest of hands may be vastly improved, if not actually beautified. First of all, girls should learn to hold the hands so that they will some- what resemble the ideal one, which is slightly wedge-shaped, the broader end at the wrist and the narrower at the tapering finger tips, And be careful never to clinch the fist, for that not only denotes meanness and _parsi- mony, but tends to broaden the knuckles. The hand should be kept open, whether hanging at the sides or lying flat in the lap. In the latter case the palms look prettiest turned upward, and if they are kept soft as the soles of a baby’s feet and rosy as the inside of a shell, so much the better, for, in addition to expressing youth and health, such deli- cacy dumbly appeals to the sterner sex. It is not the hard-palmed woman who secures the subway seat during the rush hours, however richly she may deserve such consideration. Not that man is unchivalrous, but because he believes that the owner of square- fingered, broad, brown hands is as well able as himself to cling to a strap. Every girl should realize this and bear in mind that any man who pre- tends to admire palpably ugly hands is not to be trusted. The hand of the feminine golf en- thusiast may be readily recognized by its flat fingers and massive joints, but if its shape must be wantonly sacri- ficed, its cuticle at least should be kept white by regular washings in warm water mixed with cornmeal and the purest soap obtainable, for money so spent is well laid out. After washing the hands should al- ways be thoroughly rinsed in cold water,and if one is not immediately going out of doors, slipped into loose gloves. In fact, to keep the hands in good condition, the golfing girl should wear gloves at every possible waking mo- ment commensurate with domestic ob- ligations, and invariably from night until morning, for paste lined “beauty” gloves, which accomplish miracles with hard palms, work while their owner sleeps. Dark hued, thin and hard hands may be made white, plump and soft by soak- izs them in hot water until the pores | are opened, then rubbing cold cream into their backs, palms, finger tips and joints and letting it soak into them while one reads and mentally di- gests the morning paper's telegraphic news. When they have been wiped with a coarse towel, one will be surprised and certainly shocked at the amount of grime removed and impelled to treat them to a second hot water soaking PURELY FEMININE “A LOST OPPORTUNITY I am very glad that I never touched whisky.—John D.

Do not endeavor to economize with a pair of cleansed party gloves, which will probably be tight in spots and certainly soiled inside. Stains, freckles and tan lend coarse- ness to the appearance of the skin.

Over the plaited blouse is worn a deep pointed collar of embroidered net, bordered with a band of Irish gul- pure, and a ruffle of fine lace, and the little loops and long ends are of cream liberty silk, finished with gilt tassels and slides. The sleeves are of the raglan style, trimmed with stitching and buttons. The belt is soft leather, fastened with a gilt buckle. Gaze on those figures, John, and weep ‘g the cook.

STORIES WORTH TELLING | A St. Paul man tells of a German | proprietor of a saw mill in a Minnesota town who was accustomed to use for fuel the refuse from the lumber. fuel cost nothing, but it took four men The to provide it, because the machinery was old-fashioned. One day an agent for mill machinery persuaded the owner to install a new equipment that would reduce the amount of the fuel one-half. The proposition looked like a good one, and the agent, confident of success, called on the German after the installation of the machinery, fully expecting to be congratulated. But the Teuton gave him a gloomy stare. “What's the trouble?” agent. “The machinery does claimed for it?” “Yes, but I overlook sometings.” “What was that?” “Vell, it dakes only two mens to han- dle dot fuel, but it dakes de udder two mens to haul avay vot’ ve didn’t use before, und a team pesides.” tee A suburban family has a servant who is an excellent cook, but insists upon making all her dishes strictly accord- ing to her own recipes. Her mistress gave her full swing not only as to cooking, but as to the purchasing of supplies. The other day the mistress said: “Nora, the coffee you are giving us is very good. What kind is it?” “It’s no kind at all, mum,” replied “It’s a mixer.” “How do you mix it?” “I make it one-quarter Mocha, and asked the all I one-quarter Java, and one-quarter Rio.” “But that’s only three-quarters. What do you put in for the other quar- ter “J put in no quarter at all, mum. That's where so many spiles the cof- fee, mum, by putting in a fourth quar- ter.” tet A train was just starting at a cer- tain South London station and a gen- tleman was about to open the door of a carriage and jump in when the guard ran up, seized him, and pulling him back said: “Why, I probably saved your life, sir. It’s most dangerous to get on a train when in motion.” Presently the guard’s van came along and the guard was just gliding in in that graceful manner peculiar to all guards when the aforementioned gen- tleman rushed up and pulled him back by the coat tails, exclaiming: “You have saved my life, guard; I must save yours.” That guard’s face as the train went off without him was a picture to be- hold.

The only way of making the skin smooth under the nails is by constant applications of cold cream and by us- ing only a soft thing, such as a bit of orange wood, for cleansing. The latter should be done only after washing the hands, when the grime is soft and is removed without scraping. If you do any housework or dusting have the nails filled with cream to prevent dry dust going underneath. Libby, McNeill & Libby, Chicago
