TIE WOMAN OF PoISE.
Accident But of self-Educntion
Along Right Lines.

The woman of pose is restful to
those with whom She comes in contact.
TO the woman aspiring to this cnviable
state of mental equilibrium, of con-
trolled power, 1 would say: First re-
member TO be saving of your nervous
force. DO not dissipate your strength
upon meaningless movements of
hands, feet, eyes or head. Let each mo-
tion have a purpose, and eNpend no
more strength upon it than it calls for.
Learn to relax and keep the body in
that state except so far as some mem
ber of it is called upon for action. Do
not give strong grasp where light
touch will do the work. Learn to be
like an elastic band, which stretches
no more than is required, and the
strain removed returns at once to it's
normal condition. Second, it is trite to
say: Don't worry" so shall modify
the advice and make it possible to fol-
low by saying: Don't worry unneces-
sarily." With most women worry be-
comes a habit, and habits are hard to
break, this one particularly. But it
can be done. Sit down some dag and
think how few impending calamities
ever get beyond the potential stage.
Worry if you must, but do not begin
before it is time. Life's tangles have
way of strengthening out when we
come close to them. Third, talk much
or little, as is natural for you. but be
sure that when you speak you say
something. Endeavor to put individ-
uality. which is n very different thing
from eccentricity, into your remarks.
Let your speech, even though it be
about trifies, have pith and point. In
conversation, as in most things, it is
well to have II goal. The mention Of
goal suggests n word about what is
perhaps, aside from nerves, the great
est enemy to poise. This is aimiess-
ness. Too many women are aimless in
their talk, aimless in their actions,
aimless in their lives. Thus they frit-
ter away the forces which, if concen-
trated, would result in that useful and
tremendously beautiful product of
civilization, the highest type of wom-
an-the woman of poise.-Ina Bre-
WORT Roberts, in Woman's Home Com
panion.

citizens of Chicago proposition to
start a movement for the erection of

The suggestion was universally APP
proved. Several gentlemen spoke
upon the matter. The proposition
was that the president of the United
Safes be requesed to appoint a com
mittee of citizens who shall take
charge of the collection of public
fund for the purpose of building such
IN arch at Washington.
1t is further proposed that in the
event of favorable action by President
Roosevelt. such men as the president,
eN-President Cleveland and William
]. Bryan become honorary presidents
and Lyman ]. Gage, ex-Secretary
Cornelius y. Bliss, John j. Mitchell
and others become treasurers; also
that the governors and mayors of the
various states and cities act as local
receivers of contributions from the
public.

CHANGING COLOR OF A ROSE.

dication that the flowers are delighted
to be worn by you, but also as an in
fallible sign that happiness is assured
to us in the future"
Sure enough, says the New York
Herald, before the eyes of the wonder
ing maiden the roses changed color
and were crimson at sunset that even
ing. Marvellous indeed the change
seemed to her, for how could she know
that the roses were originally red and
that her lover had simply bleached
them white by holding them for some
time over pan filed with smoking
sulphur before he handed them to her?

4 FLIES ON THE sADaIIRAL,sa HEAD.

Result OF mn Triahman's AtfemDt To

Rear Admiral Robley ID. Evans. ia
's a Sailors Log, " published BY the ADJ
pietons, tells the Glowing story 81.
When the Rhode Island was his

nlanded, had a very ACCOMPLISHED
steward, a colored man, who became
SO expert in catching flies off the cap
tain 3 bald head that he never seemed
ANNOYED by them. Admiral Lardner
had for his steward fine, large,

the eulored man with great envy, while
; hls master, rnd disturb bed 4 enjoyed his
meals. Pats master thrashed at the
flies, and sWore roundly as they lighted
on his close cropped hair. The colored
man went on catching flies with quick,
dextrous movements OF his right hand,
until f Pat could stand lit no longer.
Drawing back, he made a vicious swing
at fly, but instead Of catching it, he
caught his master an awful blow on
the back OF the head. The captain,
thinking there was a mutiny. grabbed
the carving knife and made after Pat
rick, who retreated to the spar deck,
and there was a hurdle race fore and
aft-the officer Of the deck and the or

was doing his best to put the carving
knife in the back Of Pat, who finally
escaped. but never bothered any more

A DOCTOR THIS TIME.

Portland, May 6th.--Dr. E. A. Rose, a
practicing physician, formerly of Yates
Center kans.. was on what everyone
supposed to be his death bed. He had
Diabetes, and six of his brother doctors
were in attendance and consultation at
his bedside. They had done every thing
that medical skill could suggest to save
his life, but they were at last reluctant
Iy forced to tell him that he must pre-
pare for death. 1s K p 4 s.$
His aunt had been summoned to his
dying bedside. After the doctors had
given her nephew up, she insisted that
as a last resort, he be given a treat
ment of Dodd's Kidney Pills. sst
From the very first dose the tide
turned in his, favor. His life was saved,
and he is hale and hearty to-day. %7l5 +:
+ This case and it's cure has amazed the
physicians, and is the sensation Of the
hour. Tt is interesting to note that.
while many others are being cured by
this great discovery in medicine, the
physicians themselves are among the
first to benefit, and that while the sim
pier and more prevalent forms, such as
Rheumatism, Sciatica, Bladder and
Urinary Trouble and Female Weakness
disappear before it, the more malignant

betes and Dropsy, which have always
been regarded as incurable, are yield

ness and suffering has its origin in the
Kidneys, the use Of this wonderful med

2 vienna's Club of the Divorced.

Vienna has a new society which
should rouse some American cities to
noble emulation. No woman not di-
vorced is eligible to membership, but
there is nothing frivolous about the or
ganization. It is to be called the HUI
mainly club, and its badge is a silver
ring, engraved with that word, and
worn on the wedding ring finger. The
opriateness of the name seems a
trifie occult; but, presumably, a divorc-
ed woman has more troubles of her
own, in Austria, than here and needs
moral support. The idea Of band Of
divorced women meeting weekly for
mutual entertainment and support
will probably strike the average Am
erican citizen as distinctly humorous;
but it is a serious matter IN Vienna,
and the club proposes building for.
itself a permanent home. New York

MAKING CHARITY MARMALADE.
A Very Successful Business That is Car

A Very Successful Business That is Car
ried On by Women. -
The reduced gentlewoman who sells
jellies and jams for her own benefit is
a familiar figure in the commercial
world. The, big and little grocers take
her wares and the invalid delicacy''
establishments charge fancy prices for
them. The gentlewoman who makes
marmalade for charity is different
person, but her success has been SO
encouraging financially that women at
their wits end to know what to do for
church fairs and village libraries and
other worthy objects may take a leaf
from the recipe book of this philan-
thropic business woman. Eight years
ago Miss Watson, a young woman in
terested in church work in a country
town, suggested to a few of her fellow
workers that they make some MARINA
lade for sale, giving the proceeds to
the paroehial charities Of the village,
says the New York Commercial Adj
vertiser. The idea met with favor and
the good church women started to
WIN LII q UuO1ACSo-l1AC, pIdCL1Cdl
ner. They knew how to make MARINA
lade. They were business-like and prac-
tical and they had executive ability.
That year 1T pounds Of marmalade
were sold, and after all expenses were
paid there remained 1915 profit. The
following year both sale and profit
nearly doubled. The accounts for 1900
show a sale upward Of $4,000 pounds.
The benefits of the manufacture were
quickly extended to other charities, a
large number Of which now receive
contributions from the funds thus
raised, which are devoted entirely to
charitable purposes. The work is car
ried on upon strictly business lines.
Several cottages have been rented as
factory" and the village girls find
work in this new industry. The mar
malade is daintily put up, with orna-
mental labels, and is, Of course, as
good as its raison d'etre, or it would
never have sold SO well and for so: long
q time. 81 .

MILLIONS or RUBBER BANDS.
Immense IN dustry In Furnishing Little

Immense Industry In Furnishing Little
IS Elastic for GomnnercIal Trade.
The little elastic rubber band that
is nowadays used in various businesses
in place of tWine seems a simple sort
of Ithing, but there are few, If any, of
the multitude of small articles made
out of rubber for which there is such
an enormous demand, especially IN the
United States, Z remarked q Wholesale
dealer il rubber bands in New York
the other day. In this country the,
number Of rubber bands sold in one
year amounts to about 100000 gross,
or 1000. 900 single bands. AT least SO
per cent OF the goods are made in New
York and the rest are produced in fac
tories located in New Jersey and New
Eng gland. In New York there are half
dozen factories devoted partly or ex-
clusively TO the manufacture of rub
Der bands. The process by which the
bands are made is simple. The rubber
IN a LIQUID state is nodded into tubing
Of sizes suitable for forming the small
and medium varieties of bands. When
the tubing is ready for use it is put
into a rapid running machine having
knives which cut or slice the rubber
into bands. The larger bands are cut
by machinery from fiat sheets Of rub
Der and Joined together with the aid
of heat and a pressing machine. Rub
Der bands are made in only two colors,
black and brown. They range in size
from one-quarter Of an inch to six
inches in length. The smallest bands
are one-sixteenth OF an inch de and
the largest are one and one half inches
wide. The smallest bands are worth
"a cents pei. gross, while the medium
sized ones sell at from 48 to 96 cents
per gross. The greatest consumers Of
rubber bands are druggists and grocsrs.
They use the smallest and medium
sized bands in place Of Irvine for put
ting up small packages. The large flat
and expensive bands are used by court
officers, lawyers, bankers and mer-
chants for filing documents and papers.
No rubber bands are imported into this
country, but a few American rubber
bands are exported to. the West Indies

way to cure deafness, and that is by consti-

Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inf1amed
you have a rum bling sound or imperfect hear

the result, and unless the inflammation can be
