Handkerchief Lore. ‘‘This is the way we iron our clothes so early on Tuesday morn ing!” so sing the children in one °t the old mimicking games handed down from one generation to another. The ironing of hand kerchiefs calls for no special knowledge, but a clevey laundress knows one'or two things of which she makes a specialty. Here is one of them: It you watch one of the buds or older belies erentlv NERVOUS PROSTRATION. WARNING FOR SCHOOLMA’AM “ Will you kindly allow me,” writes Miss Mary E. Saldt, of Jobstofrn, N. J., to Mrs. Pinkham, “ the pleasure of ex pressing my gratitude for the wonder ful relief I have experienced by taking your Compound? I suffered for a long time with nervous prostration and gen- trial. I took two bottles and was cured. I can cheerfully state, if more ladies would only give your medicine a fair trial they would bless the day they saw the advertisement, and there would be happier homes. I mean to do all I can for you in the future. I have you alone to thank for my recov ery, for which I am very grateful.” A Fond Mother Viewed the Acquaintance With Some Suspicion. The course of a teacher in some rural schools is not unmarked by pitfalls. One young lady thus engaged tells an amusing story of the # anxiety her con duct unwittingly caused the mother oi one of her pnpils. The pnpil in ques tion was an overgrown and stupid but well behaved boy of 19, named Tobias Hodge. He was older by several years, and far bigger than any other pupil in the school, but he was not so well ad vanced in his studies as scone of the younger ones. He seemed so anxious to learn that the teacher often got him to remain after school for .the purpose of assisting him in his studies. Their homeward way lay over the same road, and they would walk home together after the hard places in the lesr ; sons had been made easy for Tobias. Often in the morning, when she left home to go to the schoolhouse, the teacher would find the boy waiting for her, and she tactfully gave him several lessons in politeness, such as lifting his hat to her and other ladies, and assist ing her over bad places in the road. She was beginning to feel that she might really make something out of To bias, when her efforts on his behalf re ceived a sadden check by the reoeipt of the following note from his widowed mother: Maddum—I just want to say that I have heerd how you are carry in on with my son Tobe, an all I got to say is that he ain’t of marry in age, an I am his gardeen. A word to the wise ought to be suflishent. —iiondon Telegraph THAT THE iv.tintmmtmimnin'~ FAC-SIMILE SIGNATURE 1.1 v • + k fege table Pr eparationfor As- dialing theTood andReg ula- thc Stomachs and Bowels of •emote s Digestion,Cheerful- ss ancl Itest.Contains neither )tum,Morphine nor Mineral. qtKABCOTIC. to color—first, that the scrap of lawn and lace is very becoming to a fair face; second, that the afore said handkerchief isn’t white at all. It would not be so becoming if it were white, and this is what mademoiselle knows as well as you do.ggjThe color is not derived from being “spotted with strawberries,” as was the case in that fateful handkerchief which Otello had from his mother. It is deliberate ly tinted during the laundrying. The laundress who is eager to please has taken pains to “pinken” (if there be such a yerb) the hand- kerchief justras she “blues” some linens and cotton cloths that might turn yellow by un tin ted application of soap and water, so she has imparted a rosy tinge to the monchoir. The laundress has a little cake of carmine paint, one of the water color rectangles such asare sold in the cheap boxes of paints intended for children’s use. She colors the water perpeptibly, for the handkerchief will net take up the full depth pf rosiness to which the preparatory bath is stained. Of course the handker chief does not look really pink, but it is “off the white” and very pretty especially when held to a fair young face.

The traffic in guns and ammunition at this point is likely to suffer a depres sion if the methods ®f John W. Owes in hunting wild animals are adopted generally. Tbs other day Mr. Owen and Oliver Peaker were in the Jicarilla mountains, having several hunting dogs with them, but no guns. Besides cap turing two wildcats and one fox, their hounds got on the fresh trail'of a huge mountain lion, which had just gorged itself with the fresh veal from a calf it bad killed. The lion had taken refuge from its pursuers in a tree when Messrs. Owen and Peaker came up and drove it off its perch with clubs. This was re peated until it reached its third resort. Here Mr. Owen, being an expert cow man, and realizing that a few dogs and two unarmed men could not hope to eapture an animal of this character by means of noise and only clubs and stones for weapons, concluded to adopt the rope which he knew so well how to use. Taking his lariat in his hand, he climbed the tree to within about six feet of the lion, and, making the throw with care and precision, the animal was caught around the neck just as he was ready to spring at bis captor. Mr. Owen dropped to the ground, the lion springing at the same time. When only two or three feet from the ground, the animal reached the extent of the rope, which remained over the limb, with the other end fas- tened below, and was strangled to death. This lion was one of the largest evei captured in this region, measuring 9 feet 4 inches from tip to tip and weigh ing about 300 pounds. Mr. Owen says that he did not realize that he was in any danger until he had skinned the lion and mounted his horse to ride to camp, when his nerveslelaxed and he became frightened.—White Oaks * IS.

Gold Dollar Monument The constitution that has been broken down or weakened by long standing disorder in the liver or kid neys is ill fitted to withstand the en croachments of disease. Such a person takes cold easily, cannot stand fatigue, and in cases of epidemics, is the first to fall a victim. The proper course is to remove the cause of the weakness by treating the liver and kidneys. Dr. J. H. McLean’s Liver and Kidney Balm will reach the seat of trouble and re store the diseased organs to healthy functional activity. Increased nourish ment of the body will follow and the patient will rapidly regain health and strength. Price §1.00 a bottle. For sale by M. C.
