This I say: Go back and pick up lost (rood habits the omit toil amenities of life. Especially put back Into your house the fireplace. It is the one thing that helps most to make a home homely. Build It biff and broad. Let there be no glmcracks of fancy wood work anywhere near It. Let It be only brick or stone. Then let the hearth be broad and wide. Make it so large ev ery way that you need never fear for n snapping coal. Away with mats, for they are combustible! Hut a stool that Is another thing. Here you can forget the stocks nnd the office and the store. Here you can dream of rest nnd peace. Here It Is possible that some of you have Tom and Harry and Hcssie about your knees. There Is no better way ta reconstitute the family. It Is the chief want of these modern days. The world Is never quite so inde pendent or we quite so care free with out a fire. There nro vnstness and hick of outline to a summer day. We get our feelings mixed up with the cosmos. The fireplace narrows our lives some what, but It completes and unities things. We are happy to be just a part of the little warm home circle. Did anybody ever commit suicide who had a fireplace? E. T. Powell in Out ing Magazine. London's Idol Shop.

A story writ' en in the own words of the sufferer has just come from Covington, O. , which has caused a big stir among skin specialists and among those suffering from Eczema and other forms of skin diseases.

Here is what be says aboot it: "I bad Eczema for 33 years and two bottles of D. D. D Prescription com pletely cored me. I know that this sounds straags, I can hardly believe it myself, bnt it is the gospel troth. As soon as I found oot what D. D. D. would do I bunted op two of my best friends, Mr. Shomin and Mr. Rank, both of whom had Eczema. Both of them are nearly cored, aod Mr. Rank has osed only seren bottles, it is a wouderfol remedy." D. D. D. Prescription is a liquid remedy which gets right at the roots of such diseases as eczema, psorissis, slt rheom, barber's itch. It doctors the skin where the skin needs to be doctored. It kills the germs snd the itohing scales fall off, leaving the kin fine and white. We know that this remedy is ab solutely reliable and that it has cured eczema and the patients appear to be oared forever.
