Many and many time when we

of changing the bed linen arises. and
unless one knows how to do this with

serious consequences are apt to follow
Suppose that the patient is quite help

sheet or blanket which Ia TO be placed
under her and spreads it out plainly
until IL reaches the place where the
patient rests. The excess amount Is
gathered into long, thick folds as COM
nactly as possible. and then the pa
fient is gently moved on to the plain
snace and the folds ore spread OUT on
tho other side to correspond with the
section already laid out. Ii the inos-
viaual is able to move only the leas:
bit this operation is comparatively
easy one, and even when she is entirely
helpless the change can be made much
more expeditiously than the telling OF

A smooth. spotless skin does more

no reason why it should not be per-

Roman ladies were wise in their gencr-

often forgotten to-day-that il beauty

improved and increased one is almost
tempted to say, adj intinitun. An evil
denoe of this fact is afforded by a
casket belonging TO celebrated collec-
tion of antiquities, in which arc not only
articles for personal adornment, but
everything hat could conducc to beau
tisying the person. Boxes OF this descrip-
tion were made of handsomely carved
wood. and were said to be conceived by
Venus, who gave its contents to wom-
ankind with the proviso that they

No wise woman who puts proper

lie COMMITTED SUICIDE !
The Cause and Its Lesson.

WIN did he commit suicide? Oh for
the same reason that thousands of others are
on the verge of the same sin, or in imme-
diate danger of insanity, paralysis, idiocy,
or some other equally unfortunate result of
anv nervous affection. He knew he was
afflicted with a nervous disorder, but was
careless, apparently Indifferent to the out
come or he may have lessened his chances
for recovery by treating with physicians
who had little or no knowledge of such at
fections, or by deluging himself with worth
less sO-called remedies. His case was a sad
one, but no worse than that of any other
nervous sufferer, who has nervous or sick
headache, biliousness, dizziness, irritability,
melancholy, failing memory, hot flashes,
fainting, sleeplessness, nervous dyspepsia,
sexual debility, epilepsy, etc. The same o.
similar consequences are likely to result to
any one who has any of these advance
symptoms of an awful end. Do not hesitate
in getting rid of them by intelligent treat
ment. DR.. Franklin Miles, the celebrated
specialist, has studied nervous diseases over
20 years, and has discovered the only re-
liable remedy for them. Thousands of vol
untary testimonials prove the virtues of Dr.
Miles Restorative Nervine.
AlOnEo Barker, of Clinton, N. Y, writes: "I
was so afflicted with extreme nervousness that
was on the verge of insanity. Ny hands trem-
bed so that could scarcely feed myself. 1 used
twelve bottles of DR.. Miles Restorative Nervine,
and was cured. lis with pleasure recommend
this wonderful remedy for nervous troubles"
Il had been a great sufferer from chronic
headache until began. about four months ago,
to use Dr. Miles Restorative Nervine and Pills.
since which time have not had q headache.
Several of my friends are using DR.. Miles Rem.
edes, and find them, as l did, to be more than
you claim for them."-Mrs. Mary Kister, Los
Angeles, Cal
W Capwell. editor Tribune, Plymouth, Pa,
writes Ny wife was cured OF sick headache Oi
many years standing by the use of Dr. Miles
Restorative Nervine. She has recommended it tC
her friends and they all praise it highly"
