Pleasant Luncheon Drink.

\ pleasant drink at luncheons is
made from orange juice treated with
fruits. The juice is served in tall
glasses and is undiluted. Into each
glass is dropped four slices of banana,
a Tollay grape cut and seeded, a slice
from tart apple and pinch of sugar.
The drink, of course, is intended to be
slipped through the courses, and may be
the only one served. A preserved
cherry and slice of canned peach or any
other pretty fruit can be used.

writes: about three years ago
my granddaughter, Bertha Whit
wood, was thrown from q horse,
receiving a wound of the scalp.
Under the treatment of physicians
the wound seemed obstinate, finally
became very angry-looking, and
broke out into running sore. This
soon spread to other parts of the
scalp and ran down the side of the
neck, increasing in severity, and
fearfully disfguring her. She was
then placed in a well-known hos
pital, but even the treatment she
received there failed to arrest the
terrible sore. Reading of the many
cures of blood troubles effected by
S. S. s., we decided to try it, and
itrelieved her promptly. In few

leased by Manager Mack, who determined
to play Shoch between Mailman and

fielding shortstops in the country, but he
is only fair batsman and slow on the
base lines. He may be picked up by
Kansas City, as Manager Manning now

the position vacated by Connaug hton.
