What Women Admire in Men.
“Women abhor cowards, and
still more sneaks; though, I regret
to say they often endure cads in
way that belies their intelligence
and good taste. They have quite
a pathetic desire to look up to
men; to feel their superiors in
strength of body and mind, in
calmness of judgement and clear
ness of intellect. And it’s indeed a
pity that men so often seem to go
out of their way to destroy this
most cherished illusion.
“Above everything a woman ad
mires strength in a man. It may
be strength of body—she will
worship a Hercules with the brains
of a guinea pig. It may be strength
of intellect she will adore a
savant with the body of a Qibbon
monkey. It may be strength of
! character—she will break her heart
for a politician or a financier who
is unswervingly wrapped up in
dreams of personal advancement,
and who possesses no more heart
than an oyster. But strength
in some form she craves unceas
ingly. It is an hereditary instinct
that has been bequeathed to her
through Eve’s first disappointment
when Adam was tried in the
balance and found wanting.
Woman, secretly conscious of her
own physical weakness and lack
of intellectual strength, demands
her own deficiencies. Even the
strongest woman, strong in body
and in mind, well-balanced as
Athene herself, though they may
shield and protect the weakness
of the men they love and stoop to
help them, will never do so with
out a secret feeling of contempt
and disgust which is destructive of
all ideals.
“Man, in spite of that deplora
ble start made by Adam, was in
tended to be woman’s protector
and refuge from all harm.”
POISONING THE SYSTEM.
It is through the bowels that the body
is cleansed of impurities. Constipa
tion keeps these poisons in the system,
causing headache, dulness and melan
cholia at first, then unsightly eruptions
and finally serious illness unless a
remedy is applied. DeWitt’s Little
Early Risers prevent this trouble by
stimulating the liver and promote easy
healthy action of the bowels. These
little pills do not act violently hut by
strengthening the bowels enable them
to perform their own work. Never
gripe or distress.

The Potato as a Medicine.
The good results of administer
ing potatoes in certain forms of
diabetes are affirmed by a French
physician, Dr. Moose, who states
that he has effected cures by this
means. “M. Moose thinks,”says
the revue Scientifique, “that this
treatment probaly acts by alkili
zation of the humors, in the same
way as the treatment by the alki
line mineral waters of Vichy;
besides this, potatoes contain oxy
dases and bring to the tissues fer
ments favorable to those oxida
tions that are habitually retarded
in diabetes patients. The quan
tity of potatos that should be
taken by the invalid varies from
two and one half to three that of
the bread eaten. But altered po
tatoes should not be employed;
when jellied, they contain sugar;
in too warm a medium they begin
to sprout and their germination
also develops sugar, as well as
solanin.”
The writer remarks that in the
spring, when potatoes are scarce,
and not very good, potato-bread
may be used to advantage, al
though little known. This is pre
pared by mixing, in propotiopsr
varying from one quarter to one
third, wheat flour enough like
ordinary bread to make it palata
ble to persons who feel that they
must have plenty of the latter.
The use of the potato instead of
bread deprives the body of certain
useful phosphates that are con
tained in the latter; but this ob
jection may be removed, we are
told, by adding eggs to the diet,
especially the yolks.
IF A MAN LIE TO YOU,
And say some other salve ointment,
lotion, oil or alleged healer is as good
as Bucklen’s Arnica Salve, tell him
thirty years of marvelous cures of piles,
burns,boils, corns, felons, ulcers, cuts,,

it’s the best and cheapest. 25c at W.

FOR THE LITTLE ONES. -
Little Mildred’s Ride on the Nice Con
ductor’s Car.
As Mildred and Cousin Laura got
into the car it started with a jerk,
and Cousin Laura sat down hard.
Mildred, too, was knocked off her
feet, and, worst of all. that lovely
hag of sugar plums broke, and the
candy rolled all over the iloor.
“Oh, dear!” cried Mildred. “All
my sugar plums are gone!”
Xo, not all, for the conductor
gathered up the broken bag with
the few that were left inside it and
gave it to her.
‘Tank you,” said Mildred. “I’m
sorry I spoiled ve Iloor of your car.”
The conductor smiled. “Xever
mind, missie. It’ll be swept up, and
you’d never know the difference.
But it’s too bad vou lost your can
dy.”
“Isn't lie a nice conductor?” Mil
dred said after he had taken their
fare and gone away. “I wish 1
didn’t spoil ve Iloor. Don’t you fink,
Cousin Laura,” she went on after
thinking a few minutes, “vat may
be ho might like a sugar plum ?”
“I shouldn't wonder if he would,”
said Cousin Laura.
So by and by, when the conductor
came through again, Mildred pulled
at his long coat, and he stopped.
“Won’t you have some sugar
plums?” she asked, holding out the
hag.
The nice conductor smiled again.
“Thank you,” he said, taking one.
“I wanted you to have some,”
said Mildred gravely, “ ’cause you
didn’t scold me one bit. And I like
to not be scolded.”
The nice conductor laughed this
lime and began to tell Mildred
about his own two little girls. Mil
dred listened hard and made him
take two more sugar plums, one for
each of them.
And when Mildred and Cousin
Laura got off the car at last the con
ductor waved his hand to them, and
Mildtad waved back. Then she gave
a little skip and squeezed Cousin
Laura’s hand.
“Wasn’t he a real nice conduct
or?” she said. Lvs Lovett in

supported himself since his eighth
year selling papers. His father died
when he was seven. He is an agent

employs a boy to help him. He
works every evening delivering pa
pers and collects on Saturdays. Be
sides, he helps around the house,
splits all the wood and helps to take
care of his baby sister. Last year
he made SBO clear and bought him
self a wheel, all the clothes he need
ed and books, besides putting S2O

The Strainer Would Leak.
A small boy was sent to the shop
one day by his mother to have anew
sieve put in the milk strainer. When
he caine back with the mended
strainer, he set it on a chair and
poured some milk into it. Of course
the milk ran upon the floor. Then
he looked up at hi mother and
said:
“Why, mamma, it leaks just as
bad as ever.”

ALL OVER THE HOUSE.
i What to Do if a Child Is Accidentally
Poisoned.
Some children seem to have the
knack of endangering their small
I lives with alarming frequency, and
it is well to be prepared for all sorts
1 and conditions of emergencies.
There is the child, for instance,
who has the mania for tasting.
Nothing is safe from its small lips,
from the dregs left at the bottom of
father’s coffee eup to the fascinat
ing bottles on mother’s washstand.
This tasting mania is very apt to
end with the child being poisoned
sooner or later. All lotious and lin
iments should be kept under lock
and key.
Some cough mixtures contain a
large percentage of opium, and as
they are sweet to the taste a tiny
child is very apt to seize the bottles
if left within its reach and drink the
entire contents.
Fortunately some poisons have
-the effect of making the child sick
and so lessening the danger. But
do not wait for nature to relieve
herself in this way, but give the
little one an emetic made with two
heaped up teaspoonfuls of mustard,
mixed in half a teacupful of warm
Water. Should Ibis not act in fif
teen minutes, repeat the dose. Aft
er the chiid has been sick give copi
ous drafts'of warm water.
The symptoms of opium poison
ing are vomiting, drowsiness, end
ing finally in stupor. At all costs
the little one must be kept awake,
or, poor mite, lie will never wake
again, llesort to smart slaps, if nec
essary, to effect this and carry him
into the air. In all cases of poison
ing remember:
First. —Send instantly for the
doctor.
Second. —Make the child violent
ly sick.
Third.—Keep him awake.
And, finally, 1 would suggest that
a child with a “tasting mania”
should he cured of its propensity
by leaving an attractive looking but
bitter tasting liquid within its
reach.
Bathroom Conveniences.
The bathtub has been called one
of the best symbols of modern civ
ilization. Certainly the condition
of the bathroom is a good index of
the character of the housekeeping.
If not so luxurious as the baths of
the days of “Quo Vadis,” the up to
date bathroom of fashionable ele
gance at least outrivals them in the.
completeness of its appurtenances.
In the simple matter of soap dishes
there is a surprisingly extensive ar
ray. Especially attractive are those
of nickel. There are simple skele
ton trays which allow the water to
drip through the bars. Small nickel
trays are corrugated, thus prevent
ing the soap from lying in the wa
ter. Circular and elliptical dishes
are equipped with a perforated tray
which performs the same service in
the interest of economy. Some of
these dishes are furnished with cov
ers. Dishes with a nickel frame
have porcelain trays. Very conven
ient are the nickel dishes which can
bo readily and securely attached to
the side of the tub or fastened to
the wall.
How to Make Paper Cases.
Cut six pieces of writing paper,
measuring four and a half inches
square. Fold each side over to the
depth of one and a quarter inches,
which will give at each corner a
square of one and a half inches.
Cut on one side of this square only;
turn tho sides up and fasten with a
paste made of a teaspoonful of flour
and about four tablespoonfuls of
tepid water. Pour the remainder
into a saucer, the depth of which
will probably be an eighth of an
inch. Dip each case into the batter
and then into fine breadcrumbs;
dip into the batter again, then again
into the crumbs. Have a frying pan
on the fire with hot drippings; take
each case by the bottom and hold
it deep enough in tho hot drippings
to brown the breadcrumbs. The re
sult will be a pretty paper case, two
inches square and an inch and a
quarter deep, which use as directed.
Unique Floor Covering.
A woman who for years has used
the ordinary table oilcloth to cover
her bedroom and her summer cot
tage floors says it is the cheapest
and most satisfactory covering she
knows of. Site lays it with plenty
of paper underneath to give it
spring and body. Contrary to one’s
first impression, it wears remarka
bly well and is much easier wiped
off and kept clean than the bare
floors. If one has never investigated
table oilcloths, she will be surpris
ed at the wide range of patterns and
colors offered for sale even in coun
try stores. Two very pretty ones
were noted lately in a desert camp
house. On the little dining room
was a small oak leaf pattern, green
on a brown gTound, looking when
down much like the old fashioned
“three ply.” The other was a neat
geometric design in shades of
brown.

BIRDS.
Birds are absolutely necessary
on the farm, wisely observes the
Farm-and Ranch. This applies
in all probability to all kinds of
birds. We have given the crow a
bad name because at a certain
season lie pulls up our corn plants
that ho may eat the sprouted ker-
I nels. lie works for us during eight
or nine months of the year for
which we give him no credit what
ever. Thoughtless fruit growers
have been known to shoot robins
because they eat a few cherries.
They have worked all the spring
and early summer to destroy the
insects that would have ruined
the crop, and the few cherries
they eat make but a small con
pensation for efucli a valuable ser
vice. Woodpeckers are denounc
ed because they peck holes in the
bark of the trees. It should be
remembered that they are after
grubs and insects, and the holes
are bored just deep enough to dis
lodge them. Kingbirds are said
to be very fond of honey bees, but
when killed and their stomach
I
contents examined very few honey
bees are found, even when
caught working directly among
the bees, 90 percent, of their food
consists of injurious insects. They
are a valuable protection to tho
orchard and chicken yard. The
bluejay luih been called a thief,
which is probaly true in a limited
sense, though direct evidence is
scarce. He eats corn only when
nuts and acorns are out of season ;
one-fifth of his food is made up of
injurious insects, and his nest
robbing propensities have been
exaggerated. Every farmer should
study the bird question, bird
laws are not enforced as they
should be. Agents of large mil
linery establishments shoot birds
in great numbers for their plum
age. It is to the farmer’s interest
to put a stop to the killing. All
birds should be protected.—Ex.

in premature old age and disease. Any derangement of the blood quickly
shows itself in an ulcer, sore, wart, tumor or some other troublesome
