The complicated female organism Is
no delicately adjusted as TO be easily
thrown out Of balance AS a result,
health and strength are affected by divers
diseases, women's peculiar inheritance.
Motherhood, family, society. all levy such
drains upon her strength that most wo-
men break under the nervous tension.
The demands upon her nervous strength
are much greater than similar demands
Of the opposite sex. Hence she must be
supplied in ~~eater measure with the ele-
ment--iTon. hat gives strength. The
reason women feel tired and worn out
and suffer from headache, pains in the
hack and limbs, etc. Is because they have
used up their supply of iron. Menstrua-
ton trouble is largely caused by lack Of
iron. Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic supplies
this element. lt enriches the bl0J1 and

Learn How to Breathe.

It is possible to exercise ones whole
body, to keep it strong and well, SIM
ply by breathing properly. Children
should be taught to breath and to get
into the habit of filling the whole lung
space at each inhalation and of empty
ing it completely at each exhalation.
There is no better way of getting to
sleep soon after going to bed than by
breathing properly. Push away the
pillow and lie fiat upon the back with
the muscles relaxed. Slowly draw in
the deepest breath possible, hold it for
four seconds, then slowly expel it until
the chest and abdomen have col
lapsed. Repeat this until you are tired
or fall asleep. There are scores of
ways Of varying this exercise. But
this is the essential. Of course it is
assumed that one sleeps with his bed
room windows open.

Houses Built Of Grass.

The grass houses formerly buflt BY
the Wichita Indians Of southern Okla
homa are exceedingly interesting. The
grass is gathered early In the spring,
when: it. lis yet fresh. The sod cut
ting usually takes. place Immediately
after a rain, the sod being removed to
a thickness of about eight inches.
Buffalo grass sod is the only kind that
will answer the purpose Of the build
er. He commences to lay the fonnda-
ton as does the 'stonemason, digging
away the earth to depth Of about
one foot. The grass portion Of the
chunks of sod is laid to the outside
and the house is built to height of
twelve to fifteen feet, in the form of
a pointed DOME, There is no hole in.
the top for smoke to pass out, the lat
ter being carried away through pipe
outside of the, hut. The door is usu-
ally in the south and there are no
windows. Through each tuft of sod
is run willow reed string and these
strings are bound clear around the
structure. The grass remains green
and will grow if there is plenty of
rain. 1t is not at all uncommon to
see the sides of these grass houses
turn green as spring approaches, just
as do the pastures near them. The
houses are very warm in winter and
cool In summer. They never leak.

had for years been an invalid with liver
complaint and kidney trouble, which
was fast fastening him, to, the. grave.
The doctors gave him up, and the
neighbors all declared he could not live.
His, brother came. from Minneapolis to
see him before he died.. and inquired If
he had tried podd's Kidney Pills.
On being told that this remedy had
not been used. he at once went and
bought q boz, feeling satisfied from
what he knew Of Dodd's Kidney Pills
and the noble work they had been doing
In Minnesota, that they would save his
Brothers. life
The first two days Mr.. vahlberg
seemed to- grow worse, but after that he
gradually improved under the treat
ment, and was soon restored to COM
plete good health.

Maaic Pills.

An entertaining little trick can be
done with two pills made of bread.
"One of the pills l throw away" the
performer says, "the other put in
my left hand, which close. At the
same moment the pill which have
thrown away will come back and join
the other in the left hand" And,
opening the hand, he shows the two
little pills. The whole trick lies in
the right hand of the performer TAX
ing one of the pills, he shows 1t be-
tween the thumb and index finger,
and, under the pretext of throwing it
away, slips it between the index and
middle finger by slight pressure Of
the thumb, opening the hand with q
slight motion of throwing. Taking the
second little pill, he places it appar-
emily alone in the left hand, but in
reality also the other. one held be-
tween the index and middle finger Of
the right hand. closing 1T Immediately.
Opening the hand he shows the two
pills. After a little practice this trick
can be repeated several times without
fear of detection. " ~ ~.

CHEW YOUR FOOD.
Stale Bread No More Digestible Than
the Fresh Article.

Stale Bread No More Digestible Than
the Fresh Article.
1t is a common thing to hear per-
sons say they cannot eat this or that
because it does not agree with them.
The chances are that they could eat 1t
with impunity if they would only
learn to chew it. New bread and hot
rolls are two delicacies in point. Few
things taste better, yet there are thou
sands of persons who will hold up
their hands in horror and declare that
they are the, most indigestible Of stuff.
Yet there is absolutely no reason why
this should be so. Stale bread, contrary
to the common belief, is not bit
more digestible than fresh bread But
slice of stale bread, on being bro
ken with the teeth, resolves itself into
more or less hard and gritty particles,
which it is almost impossible to swal-
low until they are softened by the sa-
Iva. The particles irritate the throat
and the gullet until they are we'll
moistened. The fact is, therefore, that
man is absolutely compelled to masti-
cate stale bread before he swallows It.
This act, of course, partially digests
the bread and thus makes it 1t In q
fit state for digestion and absorption
further on in the alimentary tract.
That is why stale bread appears to be
more digestible than new bread. New
bread is soft, doughty or plastic, and
there appears to be no necessity TO
soften it with saliva, hence 1t escapes
the preliminary digestive action. It Is
in reality bolted. end bolting accounts

The BOYS Own Hammock.

There are times again and again in
camp and in the out-of-doors dens
that boys love to have, when place
to roost while reading or place to
browse through day Of drizzling
rain is in great demand. Generally,
just when one most wants it the for
est branches and ,twigs are too wet
to use for bed, and, besides, it
is too much trouble.
Now here is way to make really
practical hammock that will just fill
the bill. Get several barrels, break
them up and remove all the nails from
the slaves.
Bore three-quarter inch hole In
each end OF each stave with a heated
poker. Then lace thin rope olothcs-
line is good-through the holes. This
can be accomplished easily. The stay
blocks at each end Of the hammock
should be twelve inches -ong. 's
The hammock can be made entirely
comfortable by placing upon it sew
eral couch pillows and covering them
with a shawl. ~
