Never wash black hose in water in

because the lint will stick 10 them and

SHE KEPT ACCOUNTS.

And Because She DOctOred The She
Lost Husband.
There is North side girl who has a
laudable ambition to know just where
her money goes. She has tried two or
three times to keep mental track of
her expenditures, but this always
proved unsatisfactory. At last she de-
cided that she must keep an exact and
minute account of everything she spent.
She got her a small book with rulings
and margins and pliable cover and set
to work in earnest. She put down re-
hgiously everything she spent, the ex-
act amount, the article and the date.
She never allowed the slightest matter
to so till there was chance of her for
getting it. When she made any pur-
chases downtown she went over the
list carefully in the car on her way
home, and put the amounts on the out
side of package. In this way she sue
ceeded in keeping a very satisfactory
record of her expenditures.
There was only one drawback. She
was forever leaving the book around
Of course, there are great many peo-
pie who are only too glad to read such
things. The servant would see il. the
man who came to tune the plan might

did not know whether he had or not.
neighbor had once picked it up on
the lawn in front of the house and
brought it in. But what was worse than
all the rest was the fact that a couple of
girl friends perused it one day. There
were some things which she had talked
a good deal ABOUT that she got for down
right bargains. In fact, after the catas-
trophe everything on her record seemed
to be shamefully cheap. However, she
was unwilling TO give up the bookkeep-
ing, and if she didn't carry a note book
around with her she would certainly
herself of another eXpedient She de-
termined for the purpose of mystical
ton to multiply everything she put
down by ten. That is, to add a cipher
to each entry. In this way she could al
ways tell that every item really cost
one-tenth of what appeared on the book.
After this she didn't care who saw 1t.
There is lot at the side OF her f. hers
house and a rustic seat. One day she
left the book on this seat. In the even

cluded to ask her hand in marriage

How to
CupeCatapph.

Every sufferer from catsrrh should
know that it is impossible to cure tie
disease with sprays, washes, inhala-
tions, ETC., which are universally used.
In fact, the experience of growing
worse all the while is proof that the
treatment is all wrong. Many
who have been under treatment for
years and met with disappointment in
stead of benefit are willing to doubt
that there is any cure for Catarrh.
The trouble is that all of the treat
rnent they have received has been mis-
directed, and has not touched their
trouble. Catarrh is a stubborn deep
seated blood disease, and everybody
should know that to simply treat the
surface, that is, the local irritation,
does not reach the disease. A blood
remedy is needed, but it must be a good
one; remedy which goes down to the
very bottom of the trouble and forces it
out. S.S.S. (Swift's Specifc) is the only
one which can have the slightest effect
upon Catarrh, for it is the only one which
goes to the seat of the disease, and per-
manently gets rid of it. This is the only
reasonable way to treat Catarrh.

Mr.. B. P. McAllister, of Harrodsburg,
KY, had Catarrh for years. He writes:
81 could see no improvement what
ever, though I was constantly treated
with sprays and washes, and different
inhaling remedies-in fact, could feel
that each winter was worse than the
year previous.
FINALLY it was brought to my notice
that Catarrh was a blood disease, and
after thinking over the matter, saw it
was unreasonable to expect to be cured
by remedies which only reached the
surface. 1 then decided to try S. S. S.,
and the results were gratifying, for
after few bottles were used, I noticed
a perceptible improvement. Continu-
ing to take the remedy, the disease was
forced out of my system, and a COM
plete and permanent cure was the
result. 1 advise all who have this
dreadful disease to abandon their local
treatment, which has never done them
any good, and take SIS. (Swift's Spe-
cifc), a remedy which can reach the
disease and cure it."
To continue the wrong treatment for
Catarrh is to continue to suffer. Swift's
Specific never fails to cure even
the most aggravated cases. 1t is a
real blood remedy, and cures Catarrh,
Rheumatism, Contagious Blood Poison,
Eczema, Cancer, Scrofula, and all other
blood diseases. S. S. 3. is guaranteed
