Vege91nE
FOR
ChillS, Shakes, Fever & Ague

IARBORO, N. O.i 1915.
Mr.. II. r. STEVENS
Dear Sir-I feel very grateful for what your
valuable medicine, Vegetine, has done in my
family. l wish to express my thanks by in
forming you of the wonderful cure of my
son; also to let you know that Vegetine is the
best medicine ! ever saw for Chills, Shakes
Fever and Ague. My son was sick with
measles in 1878, which left him with Hip
joint disease. Ny son suffered a great deal
of pain all of the time; the pain was so great
he did nothing but cry. The doctors did not
help him particle, he could not lift his foot
from the floor, he )uld not move without
crutches. | read your advertisement in the
louisville Courier-Journal,' that Vegetine
was great Blood Purifier and Blood Food.
tried one bottle which was a great benefit
He kept on with the medicine, gradually
gaining. He has taken eighteen bottles in all
and he is comparatively restored to health,
walks without crutches or cane. He is 20
years of age. ! have younger son Is years
of age, who is subject to chills. Whenever
he feels one coming on. he comes in, takes a
dose of Vegetine and that is the last of the
chill. Vegetine leaves no bad effect upon the
system like most of the medicines recon-
mended for ohills. l cheerfully recommend
Vegeune for such complaints. | think it is
the greatest medicine in the world.
Respectfully, MRSJ W LLOYD.
VEeETINE.-Wh hen the blood becomes life
less and stagnant, either from change OF
climate, want of exercise, irregular diet, or
from any other cause the Vegetine viii renew
the blood, carry off the putrid humors. cleanse
the stomach, regulate the bowels, and impart
a tone of vigor to the whole body.

Russian Marriage Ceremony.

Marriage observances differ in
outward form with the nations, and
perhaps our own whimsicality in the
honeymoon, which intermediate pc
Rod is not only openly celebrated
by the Russians, who entirely al
jure this sentimental custom. Their
weddings generally take place to-
ward evening. During the ceremo-
ny the bride and bridegroom hold
lighted taper in their hands in
front of small altar placed in the
center of the church. Rings are
placed on their fingers, and their
hands being joined, they are led
three times around the altar. Two
highly-ornamented gilt crowns are
placed on their heads, and held
over them by the grOomsmen du-
ring part of the services. They
drink wine out of cup three times,
and kissing one another the cere-
mony is finished. The married
couple then make a tour of the
church, crossing themselves at, and
saluting each sanity Icon on the
way Immediately after the cere-
mony dinner commences at the
house Of the brides father. At a
marriage feast lighted candles are
placed in every position and corner
possible. No other wine but cham
payne should be drunk, and the
quantity consumed of this beverage
is remarkable. The dinner is fol
lowed by ball, and the feasting is
usually kept up for twenty-four
hours. The married couple spend
the first few days of their welded
life with the brides father. After
the marriage the bride and bride
groom must call upon every one of
their relations, friends and acquain-
tances, and after this ceremony is
finished they sink back to their or
binary life,

Castles in the Air.

Mr.. Marooney is foreman in a
foundry, and gets $50 week. With
this salary the family ought to do
well and save money, but they do
not. Mr.. Marooney has cousin, a
shoemaker, who only gets S15 q
week, yes who sails right along on
the lightning express, while Mr..
Marooney comes tagging along in a
freight with hot box.
GLOW do you manage it, Jack,
he would frequently ask, "to get
along the way you do?" Here you
actually keep your family and save
money at SIS week, while it takes
every cent l make to live, and l get
double the pay"
20, 1 don't manage it at all, .
says Jack; 81 just take my money
home to the old woman on Satur-
day night, and she takes her So to
run the house with and puts the
rest away"
"Do you give her all the money!
asks Mr.. Marooney.
ooh, no, not quite; l keep out a
little for tobacco during the week,
and a trifle to keep me from feeling
lonesome. If l keep it all in my
pocket L would spend 1t sure; but
Mary keeps it tight and safe"
Mr.. Marooney talked it over with
his wife that night, and they con-
cluded to try Jacks plan. The fol-
lowing Saturday night he brought
home his $50, and keeping back 81,
puts the rest in her keeping, and
she promised to do her level
best to set the table on So. The
first week she squeezed through
somehow and got along on $500.
MIR. Marooney was pleased, and be-
gan laying awake at night thinking
about what kind of house he could
build. He thought plain, rustic
cottage with baywindow would be
about right. The next week her
expense account only footed up
$3.50, and Marooney changed his
design for future residence from
frame to brick. The next week she
brought it down 80 cents more, and
added a wing with a wash house.
Then she made superhuman strug-
gle, quit buying milk, and came
within 2 shillings of the goal Tor
which she had been striving. Mr.
Marooney decided on an iron fence
in front of his premises. The next
week she lost ground, slipped, and
came out at the Sc post. Mr.. Ma
rooney thought a neat paling fence
was good enough for anybody; but
when the ensuing week she came in
with flying colors ond struck the So
mark in both eyes, Mr.. Marooney
had the iron railing reinstated and
granite steps running up to the
door. The next week she took the
money she had saved, went and
bought her a love of a hat, too cute
for anything, a black silk dress, and
a cherub of cloak that made the
woman next door cry with envy till
the end of her nose got sore, and
Mr.. Marooney came to the cOnclu-
sion that it didn't pay to live in
ones own property, keeping up re
pairs, insurance, etc, and the wor
nv and stew in dread of FIRE and
earthquakes more than counter
balanced any trihing advantages
there might be.

Hints for the Fair Sex.

The hFanchette" and Camilla
are new chip bonnets.
Gray will be one of the favorite
colors the coming season.
In silver tea sets the "Mirnerva'
patent is one of the latest.
Canoes were never so much
sought after as now and never so
cheap.
The fashionable moonstone is cut
to represent the man in the moon.
Brocaded black silk will be used
in combination with plain black silk.
Semi-translucent stones are again
worn, after having been out of fash
ion for nearly ten years.
The newest fans are of rich white
satin. with the monogram of the
owner painted in delicate flowers.
Numbers nine and twelve ribbons
will be the width most used this
summer for trimming hats and bon
nets.
Pure white damask is pre-
ferred for table linen, as it shows to
advantage the colored china now so
much used.
Linen dresses will be made with
polonaises, and with belted blouse
waists, trimmed with linen fringe,
lace and embroidery.
Unique scarf-pins and japanese
designs are shown; one composed
of two small canes with fan OF
cloisonne enamel attached.
Satin will be much used for trim
ming spring and summer dresses.
Some of the new grenadines are
entirely with black satin.
The new colored embroideries are
used for trimming children's white
dresses. Those with scollops of
blue or cardinal red are prettiest.
Plain black silks were never so
low priced as at the present time.
Handsome Cheney silks, which for
merly sold for SO a yard, can be
bought for $1.50 yard.
Ladies' are making new rugs that
closely resemble the popular but ex
pensive Turkish rugs. They select
yard and a half of some rich
dark pattern of Brussels carpet, and
ravel it out, then with two coarse
steel needles they knit up these raw
eled threads.

Whiten Up.


An exchange very appropriately
suggests that now is the Time to
whlten up your fences, and gives
this receipt for making durable
whitewash that is nearly equal to
paint. Take a barrel and slake q
bushel of fresh lime in it, by cover
ing the lime with boiling water.
After it is slaked add cold water
enough to bring it to the consisten
cy of good whitewash, then dis
solve in water and add one pound
of white vitriol (sulphate of zinc
and one quart Of fine salt. This
makes a white wash that will stick
as well as paint. 1t owes its dura-
bility chiefly to the white vitriol,
which hardens and fixes the wash.

The Rev. Edward E. Hale does
not like the voices of his country
women. He says the most of them
talk with a shrill voice, sharpening
the Eote, or screaming, rather than
by giving more volume, and adds:
II remember the great dining sa-
loon of the Bauer au Lac Hotel, in
Zurich, both the largest and finest
dining hall l ever saw, when five
hundred people were dining at once
at their different tables, l could sin
gle out my own country women in
all parts of the hall, no matter what
their distance, by the shrill yell,
more or less nasal, with which they
summoned the walters, ordered
soup, asked for napkin, or passed
from pastry to ice cream. Above
the general roar of the buzz-buzz-
buzz of five hundred voices in con-
versation you could distinguish the
war cry of those eight or ten Amer
lean women, as you distinguish the
signal rockets at night above long
and dark line of entertainments"
Mr.. Hale describes these unpleasant
tones to the custom of making little
girls read in loud and unnatural
fashion in the grammar and primary
schools

1t is scarcely necessary to remind
reasonable men that if they wish to
be sad and sour, to grumble and
complain, there is always a chance.
Reasons for being cast down and
detected are as plenty as blackber-
ries in the height of harvest. If
one thing goes right, you may be
sure there is something else going
wrong; and if one thing is in order
something else is out of joint, or at
any rate soon will be. The chief
difference in the feelings and dispo
sitions of people results from the
different way of looking at things
Few nights are SO dark that no
stars are to be seen; the thing is TO
look them out and keep your eyes
on them, and make the most of
what light you can discover.

Heaps of corn, the Nebraska far
mer says, are nearly as common in
the yards of that State as wood
piles at the East, and for the same
purpose, wit, for fuel. 1t is on
record that Kansas farmers have
burned corn, and six months after
wards paid rs cents a bushel for
corn to feed their stock. And again
that in one year from that time,
when corn in that State was worth
2 cents a hpshel in the field, there
was ready market for it at sc cents.
The easy lesson of which is that in
years of plenty it is the part OF wis
dom to prepare for possible famine
-as Joseph did in Egypt-and not
pile corn on the kitchen FIRE.

LADIES COLUMN.
HARoL1NE HAROLD, EDITOR.

If man connects his fate with
that of good, peaceable, industri
GUS, sweet tempered woman, who is
so ordered that she is a friend in
need, cheerful companion, good
nurse, sharer of his burdens and
his soother in the hour of trouble,
he has found the best of Gods
handiwork. But if he weds a
woman, with a peevish, jealous, dis
satisfied disposition, who is contin-
ually inviting family broils, it were
better that mill stone had been
hanged to his neck and that he had
been drowned in the sea. Youn g
men, beware! Go slow, and see to
it if you marry at all, that you get
the former. Marriage is a lottery
and your happiness for life depends
upon the throw of the die.

If you want TO keep your horses,
cattle sheep, and hogs healthy, give
them salt regularly. There is no
better vermifuge than salt Much
of the so called hog cholera is due
to intestinal worms. Plenty of salt
would prevent the accumulation of
these worms. All animals desire
salt, showing that it is a want OF
their nature, and undoubtedly for
wise purposes.

gave him 81. 500 damages-just that
