Good Health the Secret, as Sor.
rOwful Wives Know.
A Hint to Women They Will Not Be
Slow to Take.

Women win husbands by their beauty.
II is 4 mistake 10 think that man does
not pay much attention to his wife's beauty
after marriage. lie is always charmed by
her good looks, vivacity and bright ap-
pearance.
These attributes of beauty depend en-
tirely on her maintaining good health.
The prudent wife, therefore, will not allow
her personal attractions to fade. She will
not permit her complexion TO lose its
roses, her face to become sallow, her lips
purple or colorless, her eyes heavy and
crows feet to appear under the eyelids
through the weakness, nervousness, all
ments, and the cares and worries so COM
mon TO women. She cannot be bright,
joyous and happy with the weight of
female weakness and disease dragging her
down with its train of weakening and ex-
hausting symptoms, headache, bac|Sche
and nervous exhaustion.

A WHOLESOME EXAMPLE.

The conviction Of milk dealer In the
upper court charged with selling impure
milk and his sentence of fine ana costs are
wholly gratifying and calculated to re-
vive public confidence in the efficacy OF
the inspection laws
We believe that such convictions have
been scarce. There has been no lack of
activity on the part OF Inspectors. but
somewhere. between the official holding
up OF the offending milkman and the
final procedure Of his legal sentences there
seems 10 have been moro lapses and
bitches than successful prosecution. The
force Of the example We cite is thus OF es-
pecial importance and matter for pub
lie congratulation.
There is nothing In the milk inspection
laws that need worry the honest and or
dinarily careful vender Of milk. Provid-
ing the COW is healthful, aud the board
Of agriculture spends heap of money in
the interests OF the farmer that bis stock
may be guaranteed, the milk, as 1t is
originally produced, is absolutely pure.
There is thus no good reason why it
should not reach the consumer in the
same desirable shape. Nothing but no
glect of his customers interests or will
ful alteration of the milk can ever ex-
plain its deterioration to "a weak or posi-
lively injurious product. Uncleanliness
in the milking, dirty pals and cans are
not less inexcusable than the positive
offense of contributing measure of
water to the lacteal drink that the cow
furnishes so chceIfuIly in all It's health.
giving purity and appetite.satisfying
quality. And yet milk vendors, reputed
honest 10y their neighnors and having the
implicit confidence Of their customers.
have frequently sought to avoid the milk
inspection, have emptled their milk
cans in the road TO prevent the secul ing
of a SAMPLE and have even offered physi-
cal resistance to the inspecting officers.
All this is, of course evidence enough OF
guilt to the public mind even though
the constituencies milkman may escape
the clutches of the law.
1t would naturally be- thought that the
milkmen would court inspection of their
wares and SO such OF them would and do,
that deal honestly with their customers.
Pure milk Is the simpIest of products.
The law sets no standard above that
which nature is capable of fulfilling.
And the penalty for ovadiug the law is, IL
anything, too light, rather than too rig
orons, for to furnish in anything but a
perfectly pure and natural state All arti-
Gle of such universal consumption as

childhood that needs every assistance to
