"You'll find them on the top shelf of the. linen-closet," said mother with a well-concealed smile. Kansas City Journal. Spring Spring is looked upon by many as the most delightful season of the year, but this cannot be said of the rheu matic. The cold and damp weather brings on rheumatic pains which are anything but pleasant. They can be relieved, however, by applying Cham, berlain's Liniment. Obtainable every, where. Glass of Hot Water Before Breakfast a Splendid Habit Open sluices of the system each morning and wash away the poisonous, stagnant matter. Those of us who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when we arise; splitting headache, Btuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach, lame back, can, instead, both look and feel as fresh as a daisy always by washing' the poisons and toxins from the body with phosphated hot water each morning. We should drink, before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a tea spoonful of limcBtone phosphate in it to flush from the stomach, liver, kidneys and ten yards of bowels the previous day's indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans ing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary tract before putting more food Into the stomach. The action of limestone phosphate and hot water on an empty stomach is wonderfully Invigorating. It cleans out all the sour fermentations, gases, waBte and acidity and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast and it is said to be but a little while until the roses begin to appear In the cheeks. A quarter pound of limestone phosphate will cost very little at the drug store, but is sufficient to make anyone who Is bothered with bilious ness, constipation, stomach trouble or rheumatism, a real enthusiast on the subject of internal sanitation. Try it and you are assured that you will took better and feel better la every way. shortly, Concerning' the sugar. market,, a Portland paper said last night: "Wednesday morning the price of all grades of Tofined sugar here and elsewhere along the Pacific coast and in fact the United. States will reach the highest figures ever known. "There will bo a general advance of 15 cents per hundred pounds here which willplace the wholesale price of dry granulated at $8.15 or 5 cent. above any previous quotation known here. "The trjde confidently expects a further sharp rise in the price here soon because of the growing strength of the markets along the Atlantic coast. 'The great purchases of sugar in the American buying territory by Europe is reported as the sole cause of the advances of late. "Some forecasts are out for an early advance of 25 cents per hundred pounds above the present record price." . FRUIT Strawberries 2 35c, 3 50c . Hood River Apples 7c lb and 40c dozen. .

I Washington, D. C, April 26. Men am taller in the morning than in the evening, medilcal examiners for the United States Marine Corps, declare, land the applicant for enlistment who i is of medium or small stature has a I better chance just after breakfast to ! meet the height requirements than at any other time during the day. The discs of cartilage between the vertebrae of the backbone yield con siderably to the pressure due to the weiglhlt of the body, when it is errect, and expand themselves while the body is in a recumbent position. This effect may amount to as muc'i as half an inch in the case of a heavy man of, say 5 ft. 10 in. in height, ac cording to the Marine Corps medical examiners. Safe Medicine for Children. "Is It safe?" is the first question) to bo considered when buying cough med icine for children. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has long been a favor- ito with moners of young children as it contains no opium or other narcotic, and may be given to a child as confi dently as to on adult. It is pleasant to take, too, which is of great import, ance when a medicine must be given to young children. This remedy is most effectual in relieving coughs, colds and croup. Obtainable every where. A Blithesome Profession. From n paper read in San Fran cisco: ... "The true funeral director is serious but not gloomy; dignified, but not rr"- rose; gentle, but not fawning: self possessed, but not self-conscious quietly masterful, but not bossy: i alert, but not fussy: watchful, but not nervous; pametic, but not lacnmoae; a kindly, unassummg master of cere I monies;" Boston Herald.
