good example of the man wh. boasts tina
be was never sick day in his life.
For many years Mr.. Kalston lived a
| Syracuse, Nebraska, and the Old RESIDENT
there remember him as one Of tho stronges
and healthiest oftheir number.
In '80. or whereabouts, when the grip
6rst broke forth in this section of the cOun
try, it claimed him as one of its earliest vic
| Tins. Like most men with a strong ply
sique, he sneered at the disease and did moi
guard properly against it. For days he Lay
in bed and lett it only as a confirmed in
valid.
About this time he moved with his faml-
" to Peru. Nebraska, where some of his
children were attending the tate Normal
School. He hoped the change would do
him good, but he was disappointed. He
dOctOred with the local physicians. and
even with his own son, who was practicing
miserable in mind and body the poor man
told his family that he feared there was no
hope for him.
4 happy thought of his own letl him to
try strong stimulants. He was again able
to work. But he soon found that his relief
was but temporary. and when bad weather
came on he was subject to severe attacks OF
the grip" as before.
Two years ago Mr.. Ralston was employ
ed at the Nebraska Penitentiary at Lincoln
the state Capital. and enjoyed comparative
ease while performing the duties as usher:
Last fall however he was put out on the wall
tall, however, he was put out OH the wall.
and with the change of work came his old
trouble in even more aggravated form. He
was not only troubled with the usual mis-
cradle feelings of the grip" but he found
these things uniting him for the duties of
his position.
Once more, almost in despair. he sought
. cure and purchased box of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People. He used them
according to directions and felt better.
Five more boxes followed the first, and the
long-sutferer was we'll man.
Said be to Journal reporter, to whom
he had just given the above facts: II feel
any man in Nebraska; and If needed q

field. Why. only last Sunday night took
q severe cold which. year ago. would have
laid me up . week with the grip but now
it causes me only temporary annoyance,
and simply live it Off"
Mr.. Ralston has been long and favOrably
known in many parts of Nebraska, both as
q private citizen and as a leader in the Or
iginal Farmers Alliance movement, and
hosts OF friends rejoice with him in his
recovery, for which he unhesi-

HOusehOld Hints.

1t is not always easy to start fruit
jar cover. Instead Of wrenching the
hand and bringing on blisters. simply
! invert the jar and place the top in hot
water for minute. Then try it. and
you will find that it turns quite easily.
Chemists say that it takes more
than twice as much sugar 10 sweeten
, preserves. sauces and the like if put in
when they begin to cook as it does to
add it after the process is accom-
plished.
A valuable assistant on silver-clean-
ing day, is lemon. If silver, after it
is cleaned, is rubbed with q piece Of
lemon and then washed and well
dried, it gets white brilliancy which
it seldom has otherwise. and will keep
clean longer than with the ordinary
cleansing.
Silk must never be irOned. as the
heat takes all the life out of it ard.
makes it seem stringy and flabby. If,
however you wish to press out bits of
silk and ribbon foir fancy work, use
an iron only moderately hot and place
two thicknesSes of paper between
that and the silk.
Fur, after some years wear, will
look much improved if cleaned with
nav bran previously heated in the
oven. Rub the hot bran we'll into the
fur with piece of flannel shake the
fur to remove all particles, and then
brush thoroughly. The fur will clean
more easily il the lining and wadding
are first removed, but such removal is
not absolutely needful. The fat, oily
look which mars the appearance of
the neck portion of furs long in use is
mostly, if not wholly. removed by the
means of hot bran. Rub the fur the
wrong way.
A soft wooden cloth. plenty Of rub
bling, and one tablespoonful of vine
gar mixed with three of pure linseed
oil, will make Il mahogany dinner ia

sidebOards use tepid water containing

tity of thymOline in the tepid water.

why Some Women Grow Old.

why Some Women Grow Old.
One reason why the average woman
wears out. grows old and plain i'eftre
her husband is that through a mista-
ken idea Of duty she lays out Tor her
self at the beginning of her married
life a scheme or plan Of duty and en-
plOyment for her time, every hour
filled with work, with rare and short
periods Of relaxation.
This she follows religiOusly for
years, feeling that she has done her
duty because every household event
occurs regularly and on time, while
she soon becomes merely a machine. a
thing without life Of itself or vOlitiOn.
She settles into her rut and goes
round and round on the same track
everlastingly.
Can any woman keep brightness,
originality of thought and speech. OF
even mere prettiness. with such a life,
and without those things how can she
keep her husband and growing chill
dren full Of the loving admiration
which is the strongest chain by which
she can bind them to her? How
bright and jolly the neighbours wife
seems when she calls. In nine cases
out of ten it is because the surround
ings and talk Of your home are ,ari-

Ewes daughters. judging from the
agricultural display at Atlanta, do al
most as much delving as Adams sons.
1t appears from the agricultural and
horticultural exhibit that the South
contains many very successful women
farmers.
The head Of the committee having
charge Of this exhibit is Mrs. Henry
Wilson, herself a farmer on a large
scale and an authority on corn, cotton,
wheat, vegetables and dairy produce.
Mrs. Joseph Thompson is q melon
grower of renown. Other Southern
women have equally creditable dis
plays. Mrs. Augusta Betend makes a
wonderful display Of apples, peaches,
grapes and other fruits. Her peaches
compare favorably with those Of Del
aware, while her apples equal the
finest varieties grown in Nova Scotia
and New Brunswick. Miss NJ. e. Rob
ertsOn Of Council Grove, Kan, form
eriy OF Georgia, has one of the most
complete agricultural and horticultural
exhibits ever seen in Atlanta She
says mOdes1y that she farms for
profit as we'll as pleasure, and that a
successful farmer should possess and
use every continuance which will
probably Increase the quality and
quantity of his output Mrs. Mary E.
Thompson Of Ellettsville, Ind, shows
ia full set Of dairy products of the
highest excellence, and will undoubt-
edly receive one of the prizes Of the
exposition.
A number of Arkansas women make
q beautiful display of all the feed
grasses, including white, red and scar
let clover, the famous blue grass,
birds grass, orchard grass, timothy,
alfalfa, Bermuda. Japan clover. pea
vine hay and clean, long hay. There
are altogether some thirty varieties in
the display, and all are Of the highest
grade. Another talented Woman farm
er is Mrs. Thomas Wiley, q beautiful
and accomplished Texas matron. She
is LOuisianian by birth, but she has
been a Texan for many years. She is
thoroughly conversant with farms and
farming, and may be selected as one
of the judges at the close of the fair

ties Of fine vegetables and tropical and
