DRINKS FOR A HOT DAY


This is the season when the druggist sells
thousands of glasses of sweetened wind high
y favored to people who try and imagine
that they can quench their raging thirst by
drinking the stuff.
Every one knows that soda water only
Gates more thirst, but there is something
mildly exciting in drinking the syrups and
lactesls which are prepared for the hot season,
and they may not be exactly injurious. At
all events they are not nearly as harmful as
ice-water, which leads to all sorts of diseases
OF the stomach. Water which is put in bot
ties and placed near the ice is much more
healthfui.
One of the most delicious and healthful of
all summer drinks, and one which promi-
nent physician recommends to many of his
patients, is koumiss. This is easily made
and is food AS well as drink. 1t is prepared
as follows: Take a pint of milk, to which
has been added tablespoonful of sugar,
and e-quarter of yeast cake which has
been dissolved in little warm water. Stir
together and heat until it is about like new
milk. Put into bottles, filling them only
half-full, cork tightly and leave in a warm
room II hours. Then put on the ice upside
down. In a few hours il will be ready to
drink and if made well nothing can be nicer
Another old-fashoned beverage, which il
exceedingly palatable, can be made of mo.
lasses, ginger and a little vinegar, put into
cold water. Even ice water is not so injuIi-
Gus if ginger is put in it.
Lemonade is undoubtedly the favorite
bone drink. and IT is certainly refreshing
! With the addition of sliced pineapples and a
few strawberries or little syrup to give il
color it can be dignihed by the name OF
nectar and will, consequently, taste much
better.
Some of the dealers have begun to have
oatmeal water for sale at their soda foun
tains. It is suggestive of Cruel. but it i.
very nice and can be made even better by
adding a little lemon and strsning carefully

The modes of deaths approach are varioGs
and statistics show conclusively that more
persons die from diseases of the Throat snd
Lungs than any other. Ii is probable that
everyone. without exception, receives vas,
numbers of Tubercle Germs into the system
and where these germs fall upon suitable soil
they start into life and develop, st FIRST slowly
and are shown by slight tickling sensation in
the throat and if allowed to continue their
ravages they extend to the lungs producing
Consumption and to the head, causing Ca
tarrh. Now all this is dangerous and if al
lowed to proceed will in time csuse death.
At the onset you must act with promptness !;
allowing . cold to go without attention is
dangerous and may lose you your life. As
soon a. you feel that something is wrong with
your Throat, Lungs or Nostrils, obtain a
bottle Of Boschee's German Syrnp. II will
give you immediate relief.

The True RensOn-wssh Day Made Eas,

There is reason in everything, but not
every reason given is true. About washing
clothes, for instance, common sense and the
chemistry of everyday life teach us that Ger
tain things must be done, while others may
be left undone. Clothes must be made
clean, sweet, pure and Wholesome without
either injuring the fabric or the hands of the
laundress. If these objects can be attained
it does not matter as to what methods are
used, and the soap or soap powder, no mat
ter what it is called, that will admit of the
most varied methods of use is the handiest.
Some things, however. are important tc
observe. The dirt and all soap must be en-
tirely removed from the interstices of the
clothes a1d all microbes must be destroyed
The only and easiest way to do this is by
heating the water in which the clothes ARE
contained to the boiling point. The boiling
| water, by constant selfagitation. is forced
through the interstices of the fabrics, and
thus cleanses them from dirt, and disease
breeding microbes, as they can be cleansed
| in no other way-and without in any man
ner injuring the fabric. As there is NO
royal road to learning, neither is there any
easier, surer or safer way of washing clothes
clean and freeing them from all disease
breeding microbes or bacteria than by using
Pyie's Pearline, and to strictly follow the
directions accompanying each package
Above all things. avoid any soap or soai
powder that does not work to hest advantage
in hot water.-AmerieaH analyst, N I.

The desire to obtain the largest possible
Royal Grants for the children of the
Prince may have lead the Queen to make
things look AS gloomy as possible to the
committee. But even II this was the
case. the result Of the exhibit made to
them will cause profound surprise
among those who have entertained exalted
ideas OF the wealth of the English Royal
Family. Poor rs the Queen is reported To
be, she has not yet felt the real uipping
frosts of poverty.

In other words, vote the grants, and thus
relieve Her Majesty from all concern about
