The wife was not required to plead to any charge, was not of her right to communicate with relatives or friends and no lawyer to protect her. Her husband was the only witness her.

For if you'do not get to those sales early, especially when the prives are cut a good deal, you'll find the best things picked o Mrs. Rangie then took out of her pocketbook several samples of sum- mer goads she had “set her heart on,” as she expressed it, and remarked that she did so hope that these pat- terns were among those advertised at the cut prices, “Well, I'm not golng downtown for anything in particular,” said Mrs, Jarr. “But I'm ao tired of sticking in the house, and I really must seo about getting some more summer clothes for the children!" “The men have no such responal- bilities,” asserted Mrs. Rangle, “and you can never make them appreciate the trouble we take to make one dol- lar do the work of two, Now, if Mr, Jarr and Mr. Rangle were to meet thia way all they'd think of would be to go around together and have a good time, and they wouldn't care when they came home.” “It certainly is the truth,” repiled Mrs. Jarr, “and it would serve them just right if we @id the same.” “All right,” said Mrs. Rangle, “let us go on a regular spree, just as they'd do!” This startling proposition took Mra, Jarr’s breath away, but she was game. “We won't go shopping at all,” sald Mra. Rangle. “No,” replied Mra, Jarr, “we won't do a single useful or sensible thing!" But right here the day was spoilt for her in the beginning, and for Mra, Rangle as well, No man can enjoy a spree as much as @ woman enjoys shopping. “They'd go into a saloon first,” sald Mrs. Jarr faintly, “We can't do that, but can go into’a restaurant,” and they aid. “Did you see bow that man stared at us?” asked Mrs. Jarr, as a well- turned around they both regarded him with a stony stare, “I wonder if our husbands would have flirted had it been a pretty actress?" said Mra, Rangle. “I wouldn't put it past them, You can’t tell what they'll do out of our ght,” sald Mrs, Jarr, They looked about the restaurant, but in the heat of the day the place was deserted, and after giving a ice around from the doorway they a ted.« \ t's go in the drug store on the corner and have an ice cream soda,” said Mra.

EW people brush their teeth properly; still fewer know how to care for their teeth. And yet, as many a person remarks, the teeth are a source of trouble from the time they appear until they are needed no more. Most of this trouble can be avoided if the child is early taught how to cave for its mouth and teeth, and constant supervision is exercised by a reliable dentist, I say “reliable” den- tist. Know to whom you are entrust- ing your teeth, because your nervous system and digestion hinge largely upon the condition of your teeth, Doctors are holding a convention to discover some means of prevent- ing spread of a serious disease of the gums and teeth. One famous dentist attributes this disease to the habit of using paste, instead of powder or Hauid on the teeth. (I do not vouch for his claim. Nor do many den- tists.) He says the paste is pushed under the flesh at the gums and hardens around the roots of the teeth, causing the disease that loosens them, He makes his patients brush their teeth up and down, instead of crossways; use a good powdered dentifrice, brush the teeth every day or two with a little cooking soda on the brush, and ecrub the inside of the teeth, up and down, and the gums This treatment, he says, has prevented any recurrence of the gum dis- ease among his patients, and has saved the teeth in fine order, rush their teeth crossways, and that jams the tooth powder, between the crevices of the teeth. ing up and down not teeth and their crevices, but also stimulates the flow of and keeps them healthy, Healthy gums mean good teeth, This same dentist also recommends brushing the teeth with castile soap. tried this and have not needed a dentist in years.

UST, common omnipresent, every day dust, we now know to be one of man’s worst enemies, and lke all enemies it must be fought. . We gain an idea of how dust Is found floating in the air (in doors and out of doors—tho’ we can not see it) by noticing a shaft of sunlight as it streams into a darkened room. Carried hither and thither by every breath of air it, like all else in nature, follows the law of gravity and sooner or later sinks slowly towards the earth. Have you ever wondered what dust contains? It is filth, nothing else, and filth in its most dangerous form, for it helps to spread disease, Dust contains every form of disease germ from man and beast—soot, sand, ashes, wood, decayed matter, hair, pollen of plants, remains of flies and HO would ‘a’ thought, a few Bag ag ave was going to get all the stare to turning up their noses at their former salaries?
