The following eight rules, which
we're adopted by the third annual con-
sress of the Amalgamated Female
Whist Players of America. are formu-
ated to prevent the learner from unin-
-entionally making the game dull and
embarrassing. They should be care
'ully memorized by the beginner:
/. Conversation during play is linn
ted strictly to the weather. fashion,
ociety, the drama. music. art sports.
he new woman the last few trick
aiken, and everything else that may
end to break the firing mnnotonv
labitual to the new players. The sue
'ess of the game depends on this.
ii. Each player should at once,
brow out hint. as to the quality Of
Ter hand. her satisfaction or dissatis~
action with it, and her approval OF
iisapproval of each play. This will
make you a popular partner with the
men.
III. A player should never wait to
cad until the preceding trick is turned
ma quilted. Delays of this sort are
tlways unnecessary and make TIE
game slow.
~. Meyer fail, as the second trick
turned. to inquire what is TRUMP.
Repeat the inquiry at short intervals
throughout the hand This is the
EASIEST way to fix ii indelibly in your
memory.
V. Frequently card should be
played in such a manner as to call
particular attention to it, If you think
four partner is not aware of it touch
your card and say, now remember. I
played that" He might have finished
he game with the impression that ii
had played itself.
VI. When you have played the
highest in suit. and it is your partners
play, never fail to remind him that il
s your trick. He might think it be-
onged to your uncle in California.
VII When you are accused of re-
'oking stoutly deny il. If it is proved
lgainst you. you can explain at length
lust how you came to do it. If YOU
discover your own revoke, never fail
20 revoke a second time In this way
the first error will escape notice for
little longer. This will make all TIE
men glad they are in the game.
VIII. If you are a bystander walk
tround the table and look over the.
lands of the players. Do not forget To
all frequent attention to the game
Turing the play of each hand. This

WRONG AND RIGHT EATING.
One Makes Us Weak; The Other
Makes Us Strong.

Wrong eating makes us weak, because il
doesn't nourish us. 1t poisons us, because it
sets up poisonous fermentation in our stomach
and the poisons 60 into our blood.
Wrong eating is eating indigestible food, OF
eating more than our stomach is able to
digest.
Right eating is eating digestible food, food
that the stomach is able to digest, food that
will nourish you when it is digested.
Right eating strengthens and invigorates
the body. gives endurance. increases weight
and restores health. -.
Wrong eating can be made right by taking
the Shaker Digestive Cordial. This prepare
tion, made by the Shakers from simple herbs
roots and wine. is delicious, refreshing, and
Strengthening to the body. 1t is powerful
aid to digestion.
1t does not act by strongly stimulating the
stomach, but with its own digestive ferments
acts on the food in the stomach, and reduces,
instead Of increasing. the work which the
stomach has to do.
This is why it increases your strength, VIII y
it will cure you of all the bad effects Of in
digestion and of insufficient nourishment,
and purifies your system Of all dangerous in
digestive poisons, whs nothing else has been
found to relieve you.
At druggists. Ten cents for trial bottle.
