Sliding doors operated by cords from alley, are under each window. Pieces of two by three inches are spiked across from center studs to back posts near ground. From heater end of house to the other end each two by three inches is one-half inch higher than the one before it. This gives a pitch of six inches in 60 feet.

The doctor said the only help for me was to go to a hospital and be operated on. I tried several remedies for months but did not get much help. During this time sores appeared which changed to a terrible itching eczema. Then I began to use Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and Pills, injecting a quantity of Cuticura Ointment with a Cuticura Suppository Syringe. It took a month of this treatment to get me in a fairly healthy state and then I treated myself once a day for three months and, after that, once or twice a week. The treatments I tried took a lot of money, and it is fortunate that I used Cuticura. J. H. Henderson, Hopkinton, N. Y., Apr. 26, 1907.” Cultivate bad habits and you'll reap miseries. e buy cream.

WHY SHE LET HIM PRO- POSE FIFTEEN TIMES The girl in the stern of the row- beat watched the young man at the oars for a while and then asked inno- cently: “What's the trouble, Bertie?” “I wish you’d ever-be serious once,” grumbled the young man. “And if you love me don’t call me by that con-| founded name!” “I don’t love you,” said the girl, with what seemed like polite regret. “Still, Tl call you Herbert if you insist. I don’t like your insinuating that’ ’m never serious. It makes me out so frivolous and worthless.” “You may be serious otherwise,” re- turned the young man, “but you aren't when you’re with me. You know per- fectly well you aren’t. You turn ev- erything I say into a joke. Sometimes I think I must bore you frightfully.” “Never,” cried the girl in the end of the boat, leaning forward in her earn- estmess. “On the contrary, you are the joy of my life! If you knew how you brightened existence for me—” The young man dipped the oars say- agely. “That’s it!” he said: “There you go! I simply amuse you!” The 3 woman sighed. “You are so frightfully hard to suit,” she mur- mured patiently. ‘First you are afraid you hore me and instead of rejoicing when you find you don’t, you growl because you think I am amused by you! I never tried so hard in my life to please any one as I do to please you, but somehow—~ “Funny way you have of trying,” said the young man, suspiciously. “If you really want to know how you can please me I’ll—” “Don’t!” interrupted the young wo- man. “You are such a man of one idea, Bertie. Eexcuse me — Herbert. Couldn’t you think up some other way of my cheering you except by letting you propose to me for the fifteenth time? Yet I suppose I am selfish now that I think the matter over seriously. I really believe I’ve treated you hor- ribly. Go ahead and propose to me if you want to and I won’t say a word!” 4 “That'd do mea lot of good, wouldn’t it?” asked the young man with deep disgust “You never do—it’s always any kind of words with you instead of the one word I want. Besides, I don’t like the resigned way in which you give me permission to speak my mind. If you don’t care for me—you don’t do you?” “You just said that I didn’t,” remind. ed the young woman sweetly. “Do you?” repeated the young man. “You are one of my dearest friends,” said the young woman in a copy book tone of voice. “I don’t want to be one of your dear- est friends,” insisted the young man. “Lots of people,” said the girl in the end of the boat, looking as hurt as she could, ‘would just love to be dearest friends of mine. I don’t see why—” “Bosh!” said the young man, sav- agely. “I suppose that you imagine I think you are talking seriously? You are laughing at me that’s all!” “If you can detect a laugh on my countenance,” said the young woman, solemnly, “I'll be actually ashamed ot myself!” “Yve no doubt of that,” said the young man, darkly. “Honest, are you ever going to listen to me?” The girl in the end of the boat made a gesture of despair. “Have I done anything but listen to you for the last year?” she asked. “) couldn’t help myself unless I should be afflic- ted with sudden deafness.” The young man deliberately shipped the oars and folded his arms. He drew a deep breath. “I’m done with nonsense,” he said, “You've got to answer me now.” “7 don’t like your tone of voice,” said the young woman. “Tt should be deeper, more chesty and repressed. Then it would be lots more effective.” “Are you going to marry me or are you not?” demanded the young man. “How can I answer you when you ask two questions at once?” said the young woman, plaintively t ” The young man turned purple with repressed wrath. Just then the boat drifted over a snag, which tilted it perilously. With a shriek the young woman precipitated herself in the young man’s direction. As she clutched his coat collar the bout righted itself. : : “Never mind about moving back,” said the young man firmly. “This is much better. Are you going to marry me?” The young woman took one look jnto the face which was so near her own. “Ob, bother!” she said. of curse I am.

The college paper at Syracuse uni- versity, the Daily Orange, is making a pid for the subscriptions of the coeds and recently made this announce- ment. “The Daily Orange regrets exceed- ingly that it is not sufficiently large to inclue a woman’s page in each is- sue. A society editor has been ap- pointed, however, and hereafter all pridge whist parties and other affairs pertaining to the eternal feminine will be given the most careful atten- tion. All college functions in which the college women are conspicuous will be adequately treated in these columns.” It isn’t so very strange that the pa- per should be after the subscriptions of the many coeds, but it does seem odd that in Dr. Day's institution stress should be placed on reports of bridge whist parties for the young women. Cards, bulldogs and drinking are ta- booed for the young men. BED-BOUND FOR MONTHS.
