And verify women need some consolation.
Consider how much Of their work perishes in
the day that is done, and has all to be re-
pea,ed day after day, and then say whether
il is a matter for great marvel that some of
them have been ill advised enough to talk oc-
casionalIy about their marrow sphere" The
changes are rung on washing and ironing and
cleaning and mending days, while every
morning the familiar objects demand wash
ing or busting that have been washed on
busted "a thousand times before. Tangible
results are not what women chiefly accom-.
plish, and she often works long and hard

Don't do it, at least stop TO think OF it a

remember what Beecher said about wrapping
butter in tho tails Of old shirts, when he was
an agricultural editor more than forty years
ago. He said he wanted ut least to know
whose shirts he was eating. No, no. Get
always new towels for your dish cloths and

or drawer legs come near the dishes off which
you eat your food. Be particular about

0ymnastic Exercises and Massage Treat

The massage treatment consists In pinch
ing the muscles and twisting them this way

body. The patient lies naked upon slab,
and the masseur or operator performs his
pow-wow upon him II Is delightful to the
patient after 1t Is over, but exhausting to tho
operator. A machine has lately been in

ened so that they adjust themselves to any
part of the body. They vibrate Longitude

a minute The patient, without removing
his clothes, lies down on a lounge, and the
masseur applies his rubbers without exerting
his own muscles much. A reporter tried
it. The masseur clapped the machine on the
region Of his liver, and then moved it slowly
up to to his lungs, giving the stomach such a
two horsepower shaking up that good break
fast was nearly frightened away. The mas
seur said he could "do w much work with TIE

Rectihed oil of turpentine toleum terchin-

remedy for diphtheria For children the
dose is one teaspoonlul in the morning and
the same at evening.
Adults should take one tablespoonful.
Afterward drink little lukewarm milk 10
nllay the burning in tho throat.
For children the second dose can be mixed
with milk, which will render it easier to
take.
The result is really marvellous. The III
flammation of the abnormal diphtheritic
spots in the throat grows lighter at the edges,
and in this way they gradually shrink until
in twenty -four hours they disappear entirely,
leaving no sign. A gargle of chlorate OF
potash may be used with advantage every
two hours between the first dose and the
second-one ounce chlorate of potash to forty
ounces distilled water. Marvellous cures are
said to have been wrought by this simple
remedy.
