concerned. OF course, a victim of heart
disease will do well to keep out Of ice
water, and very old and feeble folks must
be careful.
1t is said that no case of infammatory
rheumatism has ever developed where the
patient for a series of years has taken a
cold bath every day. The right method is
first to wet the head and neck and splash
the shoulders with the cold water. Then
it is safe for almost anybody to take the
plunge.
In warm weather one can stay in the
water a few minutes, but in winter the
best plan is to get out as possible.
Colds said to have been produced by cold
baths are generally the result of standing
around in chilly air.
The rubbing to restore circulation is too
much of fad and takes up too MICH time
Even if you dress before the skin Is thor
oughly dry no harm will be done. What
ever moisture is left will very quickly
evaporate.
The main thing is to get into your clothes
as soon as you can. One physician who be-
lieves in the cold bath says that only one
caution is necessary: Never enter cold
water while out of breath. Always wait
till Your breathing is normal. Temperature
has nothing to do with the matter

A Tale Of Misfortune and Misery With

one with but little variety to the daily routine.
But Mr. Fred. r. Morton Of No. So Nesper street,
Portland, Me- had experience recently which
has made his life now very happy one. In telling
a reporter Of what he went through, he said:
II had been suffering with stomach trouble for
about two years Every day about 10 O'Clock in
the morning and o'clock in the afternoon 1 he
came faint and felt SO bad that il l did not sit
down would fall That sensation usually lasted
for about hour, and when noon came i bad no

and decided 10 try them. ] felt relief from the
first box and after had taken six boxes my dis

always keep them in the house. / have told my
friends what these pills have done for me, and

Thousands Of people are making serious and often

and apparent are the resclts that We have been

Baths for Health.

Few people realize the many advantages
OF the up-to-date city house, with its full
supply of hot and cold running water, over
the average farm house to which pilgrims
go in vain to get cool. There is nothing
for severe WEAKNESS like the intelligent
use of the bathtub.
Fill 1t two-thirds full of water as hot as
you can stand. A good way to determine
how hot it should be is to put the elbow
down into the water to test it. OF course.
the fingers, or even the hand, form no test
at all.
Pour tablespoonful of ammonia into
the water After about eight minutes

many fashionable people live IN delight
fully unconventional fashion during mid
summer.
OF course. outdoor gowns are in demand
They are Of every description, from the
natty walking costume for woodland wear
to boating. bathing, yachting, golfng and
tennis ga arInents.
The up-t0-date rule in the selection of an
outing frock is very sensible one; it is
to avoid ostentatiOn. Gold-trimmed and
braided toilets may do very we'll for town
service. but they are out of place in Aca-
dia. Scrges and f1annels. once considered
the only suitable fabrics for rough and
ready service, have been entirely replaced
by ducks and linens. Wash gowns are now
as carefully tailor-lnade as cloth costumes,
and In quality they are equally fine.
Heavily fOunced outdoor dresses have
never been approved by French women,
who declare them opposed to good taste.
The use of intricate silk strappings over
cotton cloth is perhaps the most novel
feature IN the makeup of washable
dresses. Lawn, linen, duck and batiste are
Strapped with silk.
Nothing seems to disIodge white pique
from popularity. Up 10 date white skirts
Of this durable and handsome fabric are
made rather long and are cut with deep
box plait down the back. Waists of a
narnish type, the smartest cut with deep
box plaits across the back, are combined
TO advantage with the cotton skirts. The
little black silk coats jaunty and useful
when the owner OF the pique or linen skirt
goes for walk. somehow the silk Jacket
does not appear to such advantage with
the Colored wash skirt. The silk is light
weight enough to he fairly cool on warm
days and the combination of white and
black is always a striking one.

Hiccough is usually a sign of stomach
arrangement and is often caused by babies
being fed at irregular intervals, either too
frequently or not frequently enough. In
either case the child suffers from repIetion
because, after a too long fast, it takes
more than Is good tor it, and this repetion
results in Indigestion. Regular hours of
feeding should be strictly enforced; other

will arise. a teaspoonful of fluid magne-

does not, the food will probably need

and pretty. Each fashionable woman has
her favorte flower, and her florist has or
ders to send daily to her house a taStefully
prepared cluster of posieS. The maitre
d hotel carefully places the flowers ice
until they are needed. and when the lady
goes out to shop. walk or drive her bou-
tonniere is as bright as when first plucked.
A charming idea for the makeup of
summer boleros is the combination of
coarse lace with fine. The border of the
jacket will probably be of some coarse
lace. while the finer laces, in combination
with net, will form the inner part of the
coat.
Dog collars bid fair to enjoy a revival of
popularity. Jeweled ornaments of this sort
are receiving particular attention because
of Queen AleXandras well-kuoWu par
tiality for them. She wears the deep band
about the neck to hide some scars. and is
not likely to dispense with it. so fashion,
able English women. who follow in the
footsteps of the sovereign, expect to adopt
collars of this kind. The beauty of the
jewelry depends more upon the harmonic

tear the paper away. The high curving at
the back is kept in place by four upstand-
ing pieces of silk-covered WIRE and over a
middle band crossing tie fashion in front,
fiat turquoise buttons give touch of
splendor.
LOw-Necked Waists.
Another good hot-weather hint is sug-
gested by the various soft embroidered and
plain ecru batistes, which, selling at the
beginning of the season for fabulous sums,
are now going for a song. Made into
dressy bodices, with open throat and half

Tea Gown LuXuries.
Tea gowns and tea Jackets of thin mate

broidered or lace-trimmed and conse-
quently very expensive. Chiffon embroid-

incrustationS of lace add a richness in ap-
pearance that is more than indorsed by
the bills that come home from the dress

lace, with turned-back cuffs and deep cir

and diversified with applications of lace
