across 1t as to admit it's working. But if a pantry can be allotted as much as six feet of house wall it is better to have the window set crosswise. with the lower edge little more than breast high. Then, by making one sash of glass, and filling the other with wine gauge, the pantry can have a handy outdoor closet. Have a tight deal par tition running out from the sash di- vision, as far as the space permits. Put shelves around three sides of the two compartments thus formed, and close them with tight light deal doors. Thus the indoor pantry can subserve it's proper purposes, and the outside closet banish the iceman for six months in the year.
 People with plenty of ground space, yet constricted houses, may proftably take a leaf from the book of south country household economy. It is con- mon there for country folk to have a sort of outdoor fresh aircloset, a small detached structure set in the shadiest place possible. standing upon four tall

A MONTANA GIRL.
She Was Pale and BloodIess but Now Has Good Complexion.
 Her Ailments Gone
From the Pioneer Press. St, Pual, Minn.

From Florence, Ravilla county, Mont, comes cheerful letter, the writ CT of which is willing to tell how she obtained the rich glow of health that thousands of women are envious to pos sess. Before she found the right remedy she was in that pale, emacIated condi- tion which doctors call anaemic and which, if neglected, inevitably means early death. Miss May Smith, whose address is given in the first words of this article. says:
 About five years ago I became i'll without apparent cause, and I grew worse until I was completely run down. The least exertion would bring on very severe pain in the pit of my stomach. At other times would have pain in my head, something ike neu- ralgia. My kidneys were very weak and my limbs always felt tired. was troubled with shortness Of breath and had pale, bloodless appearance. There was smothering sensation about my heart, which would heat heav- fly, with fits of palpitation. For three years I was under the care of two doc tors, neither of whom seemed to know the nature of my trouhle. They treated me for dyspepsia, Liberation of the stomach, gastritis and neuralgia. but without good results.
 Two years ago, when I saw an ad- vertisement in a St. Paul paper of pr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People, I bought a box and began taking them. They helped me so much that kept on with them until I had talk en five boxes altogether, and became we'll and strong again. I gained in flesh, and they gave me a healthy color. have great faith in Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People and take them every spring and fall as a blood medicine and for the general building up of my system.
 T have recommended Pink Pills to many people who were suffering much as was, and they have all been benefited. My younger sister, whose skin is pa1e and transparent, is now taking them to restore her color.

The DuU
 Of Mothers.

What suffering frequently results from a mothers ignorance or mors frequently from a mothers neglect to properly instruct her daughter
 Tradition says ' woman must sui fer" and young women are so taught. There is a little truth and great deal of exaggeration in this. If young woman suffers severely she needs treat ment, and her mother should see that she gets it.
 Many mothers hesitate to take their daughters to a physician for examina- tion: but no mother need hesitate to write freely about her daughter or herself to Mrs. Pinkham's Laboratory at Lynn, Mass, and secure from a woman the most efficient advice with out charge.

THE HAIR BRUSH
Breeds Dandruff, which Causes Falling
 Hair and Finally Badness

Prof Unna, Hamburg, Germany European authority on skin diseases, says that dandruff is as contagious as any other malevolent disease, and that one common source of the spread of dandruff is the use of the same hair brush by different persons. The way to avoid catching dandruff or any other disease from another's brush, is to insist on the use of NewbTo's Herpicide. It not only kills the dan druff germ, but it is also an antise3tlc that will prevent the catching Of any disease whatever through contagiCn of another's brush.
