When the maid accompanies her mis-

tailor made dress, with nothing to indi-

The mistress should always insist on
neatness of appearance, on the maids
hair being properly brushed and the
caps and aprons being scrupulously
clean. BEATRICE MILLER.

some words.

According to the late Richard A.
Proctor, says the London Chronicle.
the phrase II guess" to English ears
SO ridiculous, is really identical with
the old expression, Il wis.," meaning
Il know" The word guess" has
changed its meaning entirely in Eng
land, but has partly preserved it in
America, where of course the native
says Il guess when he is more or less
in a state of certainty. There are many
other examples of words that have
played fast and loose with "g" and
"w," such as guardian" and ward
en-" guard and ward ''guichet"
and wicket"

A Woman OF Enterprfse.

Here is a little story. Read it: Some
years ago Miss Fanny Seabride went
from Chicago to Texas as governess.
-Four years ago she got the post of
fence rider and cattle guard for Horse
shoe ranch. She attended to her du-
ties and likewise killed wild animals
for whose scalps the state offered a
bounty. She obtained $1,251 in this
way and invested it in cattle. Now
she owns over a thousand head.

A PEACOCK ROOM.

A Quaint and Up to Date Blue and
Green scheme of Decoration.
THE originality of treatment in this
guest chamber will doubtless appeal
to many who delight in quaint and
pretty things. The furniture is of ma
hogany, inlaid with holly wood stained
blue and pewter, the latter being used
for appropriate notices such as "Fine
Feathers Make Fine Birds on the ward
robe and "If This Is Vanity, Who'd Be
Wiser over the mirror of the dressing
table. The idea of vanity is ingenious
ly illustrated throughout by means of
peacocks inlaid in pewter on the yari-
GUS pieces of furniture, appliqued on the
blue linen bedspread and prominent on
the well executed frieze in the design

Whenever a farm product brings a
fair price and we have 1t ready for
market. we always let it go. In the
long run 1t does not pay for the pro
ducer to turn speculator. Farm profits
are seldom extraordinary ones. We re
call the case Of a man who had forty
300 pound hogs ready for market The
prevailing price was $3.50 to S4.90. He
vowed he would not sell until he got
$5, and he fed them forty cent corn
through some very cold weather, when
the hogs made little or no gain. until
the cholera struck the herd and swiped
half of them before he could get the
rest marketed.

What Maids Should Wear In a Wen
Conducted House.
The appearance of the servants shows
the social standard of the household.
If the maids are untidy and slipshod,
it is usually the fault of the mistress.
During the morning, when the hard
work is being done, all the maids
should wear wash dresses, preferably
dark blue and white. These dresses
should be plainly made and on no ac-
count should the skirts touch the
ground. A white rundown linen col
lar and linen cuffs, together with a tri-
angular cap, complete the morning cos
tune. In the afternoon a plain black
alpaca or wool gown is the correct

tribute to the harmonious scheme.
The fireplace is especially quaint and
worthy of notice.

How to Take Out Wine Stains.
Apply a little table salt to the spot
stained and also moisten it with sher.
ry. Scrub the spot with soap and
water, and no trace of the stain will be
left. The acid contained in port de-
composes the salt and sets free cho-
rine (bleaching gas), which removes the
vegetable coloring matter of the wine.

Recent Floods In Pine Lands Will

Mr.. VIM. B. StillwelI of the Southern
Pine Company, returned yesterday
from Jacksonville where he had been
attending a meeting of the Georgia
Saw Mill Association together with the
lumber manufacturers of Florida and
of the Gulf districts. The meeting,
said Mr.. Stillwell was a most salts
factory one as it shows shat the mills
are in good shape, that the market is
good and that good prices are being
had.
The idea of meeting in Florida Mr..
Stillwell explained is with the view
of getting all the manufacturers OF
long pine lumber to get together and
work in harmony for the interests Of
the business as a whole, all over the
South With this end in view the
April meeting OF the association will
be held in Charleston on the 18th, when

Promptness in Using
PAINE'S CELERY
COMPOUND
Means Quick Restoration
to Health.
III is THE GREAT SPRING MEDT-
CINE USED IN THE HOMES
OF OUR BEST PEOPLE.
Refuse All Substitutes and Imfta-
tiOns That May Be offered to You.


If in the spring time people acted
with more promptness, decision and
wisdom, suffering and misery would be
vastly reduced.
To put off the work of regulating and
strengthening the nerves, purifying the
blood and regulating digestion, at this
time of year is a very serious mistake.
Run down, weak, nervous and dis
eased men and women cannot with
safety refuse TO use Paine's Celery
Compound, the greatest of vitalizers
and health builders. The onward
and triumphant march of the great
medicine in this country and other civ
ilized lands should be positive proof
that it is the right medicine for all who
look for strength, robustness, energy,
and permanent health.
1t is of the greatest importance that
every sick person should get just what
they ask for from their druggist OF
dealer. Paine's Celery Compound, so
celebrated for its curative virtues, has
many vile limitations. If you are Of
fered substitute or imitation by any
dealer, leave his store and go to soms
honest merchant who will give you
what you ask for. Examine wrapper
and bottle and see that the name

spangles and gew-gaws of life, and
stretched out for them hands too eager

a good an, indispensable man is that
bachelor who can make a bigger liv-

to share his surplus; who counsels his
nephews and fortifies them with timely
remittances; who surprises his nieces

has no serious troubles of his own, and
