Tie reader of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there ia at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires con-
stitutional treatment Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
on the blood and mucous surfaces OF the
system, thereby destroying the founda-
ton of the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in do
ing its work. The proprietors have so
much faith in it's curative powers, that
they offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that it fails to cure. Send for list
OF testimonials.

Only 8 - years old, Edna Grace Hahn
with her tiny fingers can bring 30 diff
ferent airs out Of a piano. She has
learned them all in the last seven
months. If a key invisible to her be
struck, she can Instantly sound the cor
responding key of another piano. Let
the entire keyboard be covered with
muslin or cloth. not too heavy to muff1e,
and she still makes good music by strik-
ing keys which she cannot see. Her first
stroke on the unseen ivory may be a
mistake, but in q moment she hits the
right key and then proceeds unerringly.
She cannot read music or words, but
thoroughly understands the scale, quick
" distinguishes half notes and keeps
good time. If she hears a strange air
two or three times, she can make her
piano produce it. --Philadelphia Record

To keep muslin dresses looking fresh
they should not be allowed to hang in
closets with wooden dresses or where
the door is opened frequently. A dress
that is kept in a wardrobe divan retains
Its sparkling crisp look long after one
that is left hanging in a much used
closet If you have no wardrobe divan,
lay the skirt in bureau drawer and
fold the skirt over the tOp-nOt ct the
bottom Then put the waist in a dress
box. with all the ribbons and Access
series. If bureau drawers are scarce,
there is still another plan. Buy half a
dozen of the long dress boxes that dry
goods stores use to hold ready made
gowns when sent home Put the skirt
and waist into one of these. These
boxes can be piled under the bed or
lounge, and SO kept out of sight. Even
the dampness that enters a room through
an open window IS sufficient to take the
crispness out of muslins and organizes,
and they never look as well afterward
