Talking Stimulants.

A writer in a health magazine pro-
nounces against the present fashion
of taking something" to relieve a
tired feeling after prolonged effort
or as a stimulant before entering
upon period of work. 1t is a mis-
take, it is urged, that will be paid
for later. The most popular 'some-
thing" is one OF the many trade
marked preparations of kola, whose
active principle is caffeine. This
acts quickly upon the heart and en-
tire nervous system, but the impetus
is temporary, and is followed by a
greater corresponding reaction. In
particular is the stimulaut unneces-
sary and harmful at the end of a
task when sedative in the form Of
rest and sleep is what the system
Graves. Much nervous prostration
and breaking down of the general
health the writer attributes to the
practice. Nature first responds to
and afterward resents the abnormal
urging. The word of warning is per-
haps more pertinent to women than
to men. The nervous excitement Of
our present complex life wears on
the delicate organizations of the
former more than it effects the
stronger sex. In proportion, too, to
this sensitiveness to fatigue and eX-
element is the tempting ease with
which it can be temporarily reliev-
ed. 1t has become so general as to
be almost universal among women
to have some favorite bracer at hand
to rally tagging energies at trying
moment.

The Haggard Specific Company

VIII give three boxes of their Specific Tab
lets. worth $3.50, to any one who may have
used as much as one box OF their tablets
without decided benefit. We have never
heard OF a single case where the tablets
have failed to give satisfactory results, and
az there is n person to be found who has
used them without benefit we want to know
who he is and where to find him. They
never fail to cure kidney and bladder trOu-
bles and affections of the genital organs
and overcome all debility and weakness in
both men and women. They improve the
appetite, aid digestion and assimilation
and overcome constipation. They have vital
effect on all of the secretory organs and es-
tabsish healthy condition of the mucous
and gland secretions in every part OF the
body; overcome all torpid conditions of the
capillaries and secure perfect circulation
of the blood, so that every organ is supplied
and every function is normal and healthy.
Being the only remedy ever compounded
that fully meets the logical physiological
conditions of the human system, 1t is no
wonder that they give results unknown to
medical science. No matter IL the doctors
and all remedies have failed, try the
Tablets and be convinced that they are SUI
perior to all known remedies. Their effect
,on the nerve centers is acompiete surprise
TO physicians who have used them. Cases
that have baffed the skill of best physi-
CLANS and no remedies seemed to benefit,
have been promptly controlled and perma-
nently cured by the Tablets. Cases where
injections of morphine have been resorted
TO as the only means of even temporary re-
lief have been promptly controlled by the
Tablets and the trouble completely over
come by their use.

How to Boil An Egg.

There is no better way to boil an
egg than not to put it on the fire at
ALL Instead of this, thesboiling wa
ter should be poured upon the eggs,
and they then should be covered and
set aside for 10 minutes. Cooks who
try this recipe complain Of its un-
certainty. If the eggs are done ''just
right they are perfection, the white
a thick custard and the yolk smooth
and rich. But sometimes, at the end
of the 10 minutes, they are scarcely
"set" at all, and sometimes they are
too hard. The reason for this occa-
siOnal failure is that proper
amount of water has not been al
lowed. This varies according to the
contents of the saucepan. There
should be half-pint of water-and
it should have boiled hard for sew
eral moments before using-fOr each
egg. A new device is the automatic
egg-boiler, which has a dial divided
into five one-minute spaces. The
egg may then be cooked from one to
five minutes, as desired, if 1t Is drop
ped into a sIeve-like box and pushed
down into boiling water. The hand
on the dial is adjusted to the time
desired, and the box, with the egg,
is lifted out at the proper moment.

Growth in Service to Others.

1t is "A well known law in the ma
tural world about us that whatever
has no use, that whatever serves no
purpose, shrivels up, So it is a law
of our own being that he who makes
himself of no use, is of no service to
the great body of mankind; who is
concerned only with his own small
self, finds that self, snail as it is,
growing smaller and smaller and
those finer and better and grander
qualities of his nature, those that
give the chief charm and happiness
to life, shriveling up. Such one
dives and keeps constant company
with his own diminutive and stinted
self; while he, who, forgetting self,
makes the object of his life service,
helpfulness and kindness to others,
finds his own nature growing and
expanding, himself becoming large
hearted, magnanimous, kind, loving,
Sympathetic, joyous and happy-his
life rich and beantiful.-EXchange.

IN THE SHADOW.

Margaret Il. Sangster in Harper's Maya
zineI
We walk with the shadow, and we feel
its thickening fold
That wraps us round and holds us close,
cloak against the cold;
The day is growing sOmber, and the joy
Gus light has fled,
And beneath our feet the road is rough,
and clouds are overhead.
We sit within the shadow, and in that
silence dumb,
To us in softened echoes remembered
voices come.
Dear eyes that closed in slumber once,
dear hands that Strengthened lie,
Awaken tender warnings as the day
wanes slowly by.
We rest within the shadow, though the
hurrying people 60
On errands swift for gold and gain, be-
yond us, to and fro;
We have no care for transient things;
we wish no more to strive
As once we did; we rest, we dream, we
feel but hal alive.
Our resting and our waiting, and our
plodding on the way,
With the sunshine of the past casting
darkness on to-day,
With no caring for the futui e, while the
heartache holds us fast
With no thought for any pleasure-ah'
tits well these cannot last.
For the shadow always lifts, and the
sunlight glOws again;
There are sudden CLEANS of brightness
sweet, clear, shining after rain;
And we grid ourselves for action
strengthened we arise and go
From the sanctuary outward, where the
feet tramp to and fro.
Life must have its sometime sorrow
but the years that drift along
Touch the minor chords but seldom
there are spaces blithe with song
Sometimes we must face the shadow
where the wind blows keen and cold
But the shadow fades at dawning, anC
the east is tlecked with gold.

braid will be used on some of the
cloth gowns this season.
Bands of astraB han around the
bottom of the skirt form an attrac-
tive and durable trimming foc street
gowns.
Fashion presents very little va
riety in the matter OF waists this sea-
son; the blouse is the up to date
style, but that is likely to become
mOnOtonOus.
Chinchilla will undoubtedly be a
fashionable fur this season. 1t is
stylish, refined in effect and very eX-
pensive.
White satin skirts with crimson
crepe bodices, is fancy for dancing
gowns for young girls.
Facings, revers and vests of white
or cream cloth still appear on some
of the handsomest cloth costumes
for special wear.
Lorgnettes grow daily more and
more elaborate. Precious jewels are
set in them most lavishly, and the
tortOise-shell or silver ones of form
er days are now replaced by those of
solid gold.
Feathers are being applied to
gowns in great quantities, not only
grebe, but pheasant, breasts in mar
row bands, and iridescent varieties,
these last in shining bands upon a
green cloth princess gown of un-
usual elegance, slightly trailing,
and with a toque to match of velvet
and trailing breasts.

her chaperon also will have handy

Neckwear.


Neckwear, after feathers, is the
most important part of woman's
toilet in these days, and a great
amount of conscientious planning,
thought and pin-money is put into
those couuettish frills which frame
pretty faces. and those fur boas
which make the wearers look like
Romney's portraits. Every garment
except the skirt and the ball gown
has frills of velvet, lace, feathers or
fur around the neck, and it would
require a word-painter indeed TO
give the country cousin, thirsty for
fashion gossip, an adequate idea OF
their beauty and variety.
To begin with, every frock, for
every day or for extraordinary occa-
sions, is much trimmed about the
neck. Jabots and ruffies at the
throat are popular, and the more
lace that can be brought near the
face the more fashionable the
wearer. The stock of shirred or
folded velvet is seen on many Of the
handsome costumes, but this is sup
plemented by tall frill of plated
velvet and lace in the back. Medici
collars are also worn, and some of
these are so high as to be positively
startling. They are usually of satin
or velvet, covered with jeweled lace
and edged with fur or lined with
soft, curly ostrich tips. Many of the
collars hide the ears from view as
effectively as does De Merode Golf
fure, but smart gown is considered
complete without one.
Big bows Of velvet tied under the
chin are the quaint finishing touch
to the fur coats, and with one of the
big, droopy hats the effect is charm
ing and old-fashioned. The colder
of these bows are confined to brown
and gray, and the other shades of
the fur of which the coat may be
made, but frequently makes bright
bit on a somber background. Shad-
ed lettuce-green velvet, ruddy prune
or delicate nauve looks we'll upon
seal or Persian lamb.
