"I have a dauglv ter 13 years old who has always been very healthy until recently when she complained of dizziness and cramps every month, so bad that I would have to keep her home from school and put her to bed to get relief. "After giving her only two bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham s Vegetable Com pound she is now enjoying the best of health. I cannot praise your Compound too highly. I want every good mother to read what your medicine has done for my child." Mrs. Richard N. Dunham, Bll Exchange St, Rochester, N.Y. Stoutsville. Ohio. "I suffered from headaches, backache and was very irreg- i ular. A friend ad vised me to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound, and before I had taken the whole of two bottlea I found relief. I am only sixteen years old, but I have bet ter health than tot two or three years, 1 1 cannot express my thanks for what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has done for me. I had taken other medicines but did not End relief. "-Miss Cora B. Fosnaugh, Stoutsville, Ohio, R.F.D., No. 1. Hnnrlreda of such letters from moth ers expressing their gratitude for what Lvdla E.

Best Floor for tha Kitchen. If you must have hardwood, avoid white ash, which splinters and turns gray. Maple has many admirers for its hard whiteness, but requires almost daily scrubbing to maintain that whiteness, and varnish wears off seemingly over night. Red oak has a rich tone and withstands use without screaming for the daily scrubbing brash. My own preference, says Maude E. Hymers in Farm and Home, is for southern pine, stained and oiled (nev er varnished), since the wear of a kitchen keeps it constantly scarred, and varnish cannot be renewed in spots without having a patchy look. The only remedy is to remove it and apply a new coat, but varnish remover is both expensive and laborious to ap ply. Paint is open to similar objec tions, with the possible exception that it "patches" better. Possibly the most permanent stain for pine is also one of the most inex pensive, consisting only of perman ganate of potash. This can be pur chased at any drug store, and needs only to be mixed with water, in the porportion of one-quarter ounce to a quart of water. Have the floor thor oughly clean and dry and apply the mixture with a brush, freely and evenly. If a very dark shade is de sired, make two applications, but the addition of the oil makes it dark enough for most tastes. When thoroughly dry, oil with burnt linseed oil, heated, or an emulsion of beeswax and turpertme. The former is quicker to apply, needing simply two soft cloths, one to apply it, the other to wipe away the superfluous oil. The latter, however, gives a higher polish and be rubbed to a beautiful luster. Either finish will repel grease spots. In applying the permanganate of potash do not be alarmed if at first your floor takes on an undesirable magenta color; this will subside al most immediately, changing to a dark, rich brown, a genuine Havana stain, utterly impervious to water. Ljf-?1 Make the Cellar Sanitary. The cellar should be carefully kept at all times, but never is its thorough renovation more imperative than in the spring. Fungous spores which have lain dormant all winter are ready for growth with the advent of warmer weather. Unused vegetables stored in the cellar must receive attention lest decay render the air impure. After all the food has been removed from the storeroom, all vegetable stores should be examined and such varieties as no longer appeal to the appetite should be at once removed. Potatoes will still continue as a house hold supply. They should be sorted and sprouts rubbed off. In those parts of the cellar used for food or milk give the shelves and tables a thorough scrubbing with hot water in which washing soda, two tablespoonfuls to 10 quarts, has been dissolved. Pay as much attention to the underside of the shelves as to the upper. Wipe them with cloths wrung from clean water. Movable shelf boards, etc. should be carried out and laid in the sun to dry. The air should be allowed to circulate freely through the cellar. The next step is to give the walls a good coat of whitewash, says Farm and Home. This ia prepared by slak ing two two-pound cans of whitewash lime in1 a pail. Put the lime into the pail, add water enough to cover it, stir it with a long stick and when it begins bubbling add a little more water. Let it boil without further at tention. When this boiling has sub sided, add water enough to make it of a creamy consistency. Now go over the floor'with a long handled stiff brush, using warm water to which one teaspoonful of carbolic acid to every 10 quarts has been added. Mop as dry as possible. How to Pack Eggs. " A clean stone jar holding six to 10 gallons is the best vessel for packing down eggs for family use, but a tight wooden firkin or other vessel will ans wer very well. The eggs must be clean and fresh. Dirty shells and cracked or spoiled eggs will injure and possibly spoil the entire lot. Place the eggs fn the jar as they are gathered and cover with a solution of water glass (silicate of soda) one part to 10 or 15 parts water. - Cover the jar to prevent evaporation. Water glass is an amber colored liquid which can be procured of druggists or deal ers in poultry supplies. It costs about 25 cents per quart, or less by the gal lon. Pure water should be used, rain wa ter if you can gat it The jar should be placed in a cool cellar or room where it will not freeze in winter. According to Farm and Home, eggs preserved in this way will keep in good condition eight or nine months. Little Helpers on the Farm, Among the willing workers who work for nothing and board them selves are the birds, which have often been called "the farmers' best friends." They assist the farmer in three distinct ways as insect eaters, as consumers of weed Beed and as de stroyers of large numbers of field mice, gophers and other rodents. En tomologists estimate that the destruc tion of agricultural products from in sects amounts to over 500,000,000 a year. What it might be were not such a vast army of birds engaged daily from dawn until dark in making war upon these various insect pests can only be vaguely realized, says Farm and Home. Among the birds that eat insects are the fly-catchers, warblers, swal lows and chimney swifts, which live exclusively on insects. Many others, such as the blackbirds and several va rieties of hawks, depend on insects for a large part of their food. The mead ow lark has a large appetite for in sects and in the course of a season rids the meadows and pastures of countless pests that are injurious to crops. Even the much-abused crow has a fondness for cutworms that almost equals his liking for corn. As seed eaters some birds are most tireless. To this group belong the large number of sparrows. Many other birds eat seeds; in fact, most birds eat both insects and seeds in varying amounts. A large number of birds feed on field mice, gophers, ground squirrels, moles, etc., chief of all being bawks.and owls. Best Way to Set Posts. After many years' experience I have concluded by placing the small end of the post in the ground. A post will last much longer than with the large end down. The reason for this is ob vious. When limbs are cut off it al ways leaves a cup that holds more or less water, and where worms have worked the holes are always down ward. These holes hold some moist ure, but by placing the top end down this moisture runs out and leaves the post dry. At first thought it seems as though the post with the large end up would not make a good appearance. How ever, says an expert in Farm and Home, I have generally found that the large end is the straight end, and fre quently there is a crook at the-small end. If this be placed in the ground, the fence when completed looks much better. I also have found that small posts for wire fence last longer than large ones, for they do not hold moist ure as long. A post should never be reset until it is well seasoned. The end posts should always be placed in concrete ;"then there need be no brac ing or anchors used.

Someone probably one of thost Frenchmen whose life Job It was to make epigrams once said that there are but two kinds of women: - good women and bad women. Ever since then problem playwrights have been putting that fiction into the mouths of wronged husbands and building their "big scene" around It But don't you believe it. There are four kinds: good women, bad women, good bad women and bad good women. And the worBt of these Is the last Amer ican Magazine.

As the metal Is transparent to the rays the operating surgeon can exam ine the fracture without haste or dif ficulty, closing his apparatus only when every fragment has been put in place. Separating Lady's Finger Tips. Many boys pride themselves on their muscular strength. Let a girl place the tips of her forefingers togeth er, keeping her elbows on a level with her shoulders, and challenge any boy to take hold of her wrists and sep arate them by a steady pull. Unless she be unusually weak or he be very strong, he will probably fail. Wom an's World. . .- . .!! T.. n a hs n.a n nail 11 .1 mftnr anuiuwuun -"" ' .. . ... .......

Cole ridge offered to fall behind ana pass as one of the party's servants. "No," one of them said, "I am proud of you as a friend; but, I must say, I should be ashamed of you as a servant" - Nervous? thin? Pale? Are you easily tired, lack your usual vigor and strength?

July 9 to 21, 1912, is making- elaborate preparations to accommodate the largest crowd in its successful career of eighteen years. Always lew ing- in Chautauqua progressivenees, the directors are con structing a large septic tank and building a new sewage sysiem, with all modern sanitary devices tor the comfort and con venience of its patrons. A large force of workmen is enlarging old buildings, and erecting new ones, and the P. R. L. & P. track for the car service, which goes right into the park, is being re-ballasted. With an array of peerless p atform tal ent, and with Gladstone Park made even more idenl by the latest move of the di rectors, Willammette Valley people can well be proud of thi-ir popular institution.
