over-taxed by worry or extra work, or weak
ened by an attack of indigestion or bilious
ness; or whenever your natural energies are
not quite up to the mark and fail to respond
to the demands upon them, DR.. PieTce's
Golden Medical Discovery will meet the
emergency promptly, and save you from
dangerous or perhaps fatal illness.
1t wards off disease by acting directly
upon the vital organs where disease origi-
mates. 1t restores the iver's capacity to
filter poisonous impurities out of the blood,
and empowers the digestive organs to ex-
tract from the food those uourishing vitaliz-
ing elements which drive out disease germs,
repair wasted tissues and build up healthy
flesh and muscular force.
1t is the most thoroughly scientific and
effectual Alternative remedy ever discovered
in the whole history of medicine, and one
of DIR. Pierce'S most valuable contributions

service as chief consulting physician to the

Luck Has Never Helped Any Person.

In replying to the query, "Does
not luck sometimes play goodly
part in mans SUGGEST" Edward
w. Book, in the January Ladies'
Home Journal, writes:
Never. Henry Ward Beecher
answered this question once for all
when he said: No man prospers in
this world by luck, unless it be the
luck of getting up early, working
hard, and maintaining honor and in
tegrity.' What so often seems, to
many young men, on the surface, as
being luck in a mans career, is
nothing more than hard work done
at some special time. The idea that
luck is factor in a mans success
has ruined thousands. 1t has never
helped single person. A fortunate
chance comes to young man some
times just at the right moment.
And that some people call luck.
But that chance was given him be-
cause he had at some time demon
strated that he was the right man
for the chance. That is the only
luck there is. Work hard, demon
strate your ability, and show to
others that if an opportunity comes
within your grasp you are able to
use it,"

CHEERINESS.

Let us stop the worry, dear;
Things are coming right.
Sing your heart song of cheer;
Give your eyes the light.
Luck is with the bold of heart,
God with those that smile;
We but need to do our part
Yet little while.
Fortune, but to hide her frown,
When she sees your eye
Dimmed with tears and dropping down
Lightly passes by.
Meet her look with ne'er fear;
Soon her eyes will light
Let us stop the worry, dear;
Things are coming right.

Fixed Fashions.

The season is sufficiently adj
vanced to settle all the perpleXing
problems of the early autumn. The
passing of full sleeves and dress
skirts is decidedly apparent; so is
the revival of trimming on skirts.
Trimmings are the natural outcome
of the change. The diminished skirts
need the finish supplied by bands of
fur or velvet. Braiding is also en-
ployed, and embroideries of all
sorts are in fashion.
Costumes are each day becoming
more gorgeous. Color and glitter
are the rule. Red is in favor; so is
green. Black and white combina-
tons are popular. With the
diminution of sleeves the cape is
no longer a necessity, and if one
may belive all one hears this popu-
lar garment will not outlive the
winter. Jackets, dolmans, mantles
and long cloaks are all in evidence,
not only in cloth, velvet and velours,
but in seal and other furs.
There is a bewildering variety in
millinery which includes hats with
added breadth and width. Waiter
ed ribbons are much employed, and
nothing appears complete without
either buckles or cabochOns of
steel and paste or pearl and paste.
Many of the buckles are most grace
full in design, and they appear in
most cases to have been copied from
antiques of great beauty. Every

Padding Quite Necessary.
PHILADELPHIA Press

After a woman has been through
the hands of her dressmaker, it will
be more than ever difficult this year
to determine her physical proper
tions, or even to make a reasonably
accurate guess as to whether she is
plump or scrawny. In the first
place, the new sleeves, tight almost
to the shoulder, call for pretty good
looking arms inside of them, or they
have about as much style as pump
handles. Some young girls have
actually gone into physical culture
for the sake of developing their
arms. BY the time they have
rounded them out, though, there
will probably be complete change
in the cut of sleeves.

DON'T Work Too Much.

1t is really quite wonderful how
women run to extremes. The wo-
man who works is almost as bad as
the woman who does nothing at all.
You know her. She works early
and late; in season and out of sea-
son, and she can't be persuaded to
do anything else. 1t is a blessing
that now and then she breaks down.
1t is the kindest thing nature can
do. Perhaps you have visited the
woman who works. She never has
time to entertain you. You must
lust watch her work and work and
work. And when you think she has
finished she tears it all up and goes
over the whole thing again. Now,
there is right and proper doning
and there is wrong and sinful over
doing, for, while it is the bOunden
duty of every woman to look well to
the ways of her house, no woman has
a right to set aside the other duties
that she owes to herself, her fellow
creatures and her God. The work
required in the making of home is
only part of these duties; a great
and important part, but still only a
part.
In many instances the woman who
works loses sight of this. She be-
comes a machine. The beauty of
life is lost to her. The best part of
her being is gone. She is deaf and
blind because she misses the music
and beauty of living. There is no
new and beautiful thought added to
her mental store, no healthy, up
ward growing, no advancement.
This state Of affairs may have come
about so gradually that she does not
realize into what a sad plight she
has fallen. She has no time to go
anywhere, and indeed nobody seems
to expect her to go out. There is al
ways something to do, and she is
never quite ready.
Once / knew mother who had
never been a "notable hOusekeeper."
She was never what the people call
''stylish" and somehow she was al
ways Just little behind with her
work. Nobody ever seemed to mind
this or to expect anything else
There were a big family and little
pocketboOk. The dishes were not
always washed when the meal was
finished, the beds were not always
made in the morning, the house was
not always tidy, but there was al
ways time to go to church or lee
ture with the family, always time
for talk with the boys, always
time for writing long letters to the
ones that were strong enough to
leave the home nest. And the boys
well, there are six of them; six of

eyed and alert, which she could not
be if she was not dressed warmly.
To meet the wants of the present
day there are delightful, soft wooden
garments of natural fleece, knitted
or woven, and they fit the figure
like glove. There are "health gar
ments" and union fiannels where
the vest and drawers are all in one,
and the onettas where two garments
are cleverly united, and one climbs
into them as if going into well.
These have the opening at the
shoulders, and in that way have
some points of advantage over the
others. They fit the figure more
closely, and there are no buttons in
front for the corsets to press into the
flesh until it is torture. All these
flannel undergarments are flexible
and comfortable, and they cost very
little more than the old style, which
were made separate.

The Delightful Little Tea Jacket

Tea jackets are out in force, and
are made of pompadour silks, light
taffeta in irridescent effects, and a
few in rich brocades. All these are
lavishly adorned with lace, ribbons
and spangles and metal headings.
These convenient and beautiful
jackets have almost usurped the
place of the tea-gown. They are
much less expensive, may be made
quite as becoming, and as fancy or
plain as desired.

Culinary Ideas.
In talking of steaks and their
cooking, Mrs. Rorer says a steak
will not be sweet il not the proper
thickness. A good steak is never
less than four and four and halt
pounds. 1t is usually zoe to 25c a
pound, and while somewhat of a
luxury, it is economical. Cut off
the tough end and put it aside for
another day. Put the steak over a
clear, hot fire; count 20 and turn
turn every 20 seconds for eight min
utes, If you wish the steak rare; ten
minutes medium, and 10 minutes
well done. Put a tablespoonful of
butter, Glove of garlic, few drops
of Worcester sauce; add table,
spoonful of tomato catsup into a
saucepan. Let them stand over the
cold part of the fire while you broil
the steak. Dish the steak, dust it
with salt and pepper, pour over the
sauce and serve at once.
The two other dishes advised were
barbecued beef and DelmOnico
potatoes. These were the recipes
she used:
BARBECUED BEEF.-Put table,
spoonful of butter and one of tomato
catsup, a tablespoonful of vinegar,
and half tablespoonful of salt and
dash of pepper in chatting dish.
Light the lamp and when the in
gradients are boiling, add a half
pound of thin, cold roast beef; cover
the dish for a moment, and when
hot serve.
DELMoNICo PoTAToEs.-Chop fine
some cold boiled potatoes, sufficient
to make pint. Put a tablespoonful
of butter and one of flour into a
saucepan; add half pint of milk
and stir until boiling; add a half
teaspoonful of salt, dash of pepper
mix, and stir in the cream sauce,
turn into baking dish, dust over
thickly paramzan cheese; bake in
quick oven for about Is minutes.
