The Bride.

Monday for wealth,
 Tuesday for health, Wednesday for the best day of all;
 Thursday for crosses,
 Friday for losses,
 Saturady no luck at all.
 There are countless sayings about marriage which have come down to us from long ago. many of which still find favor, such as Marry in haste, and repent at leisure," and Great joy shown in a brides face presages misfortune" Happy is the bride that the sun shines on" is saying often quoted by anxious gazers at the weather on the morning of the day when some fair friend of theirs is to 'be married.
 Thrice bridesmaid never a bride" is remembered by many fair damsel who has twice acted as bridesmaid, and who is again asked to attend a bride at the altar
 The choice of color in the matter of a wedding dress is most important, not merely because one color is more becoming than another, but because Married in white, you have chosen all
 right.
 Married in gray, you will go far away Married in black, you will wish yourself
 back.
 Married In red you will wish yourself
 dead.
 Married in green, ashamed to be seen. Married in blue, he will always be true. Married in pearl, you will live in whirl. Married in yellow, ashamed of your fel-
 low.
 Married in brown, you will live out of
 town.
 Speaking of marriage reminds one ,9f the orange bridal blossom, and of how the custom of wearing originated. The following is an ancient Moorish tradition: A Moorish king sent a fine orange tree in magnificent blossom to a Spanish monarch. Never before had such a wonderful plant bloomed in the royal gardens. Every one wanted slip if it, but in vain; the slips were too precious.
 At last one day a spray of the glossy leaves and beautiful blossoms were accidentally broken off, and the gardener gave it to his pretty daugh- ter, who was betrothed to a poor man. The girl had no dowery, and accord ingly her engagement seemed a hope less affair. Still she was too out of heart to take delight in enhancing her charms, so she fastened the spray of orange blossoms in her hair. Just then a foreign ambassador was walk ing in the garden, and noting the lovely spray of flowers and leaves in the girls dusl1y tresses he desired to have if Tn exchanpe for the fOwera he gave her a sum of money sufficient for her dowery, and soon afterward the marriage was celebrated. Since then the blossom has been in such favor for bridal wreaths that it has al- most busted the bridal rose, it's Greek rival-from popularity. y.-Exchange.

EXHIBITION OF ORIGINAL
 DRAWINGS,

From the Age-Herald.
 The original drawings for the illus trations of Paul Leicester Fords last book, "Wanted-AChaperon,' are being exhibited in the book depart ment of a Nineteenth street shop. This is the first exhibition of these drawings in the United States and the many admirers of the Christy Girl will appreciate the opportunity of see ing the first exhibition of MT. Chris tvs latest production.
 MT. Christy's style is exquisitely del- icate and graceful, his women espe- cially being most delightful creations.
 In Paul Leicester Fords new novel, "Wanted-A Chaperon." the illustra- tions in color excel anything that cley- CT artist has ever yet produced.
 The Frontispiece shows Lydia in all her girlish beauty, gowned for her first dinner in fashionable New York. It is Christmas eve and there has been a wild snow storm. MT. Christy has beautifully portrayed the shadow of disappointment that has crept over the charming face of the girl as her aunt pushes back the heavy curtains and announces that she had better tel ephone that she can't come. The eff feet of the whole; the girls room, with the mirror in the background re- flecting her dainty beauty, the grace of the aunt as she holds back the cur tain; the rich color scheme and the lights throwing a soft glow over all, is indeed a beautiful piece of work.
 On page 30 is another beautiful il- lustration, showing Lydia seated at the table with the young bachelor. This picture is very clever in express sion. That of the young man as he looks across the table, while pouring a glass of champagne, is wonderfully well drawn. You've never drunk champagne before" he inquired, as she answers in the negative; he re- members that he is a gentleman and pushes the glasses aside. The table with the vase of violets in the center, the girls beautiful pose is delight ful bit of artistic work.
 On page 96 is a beautiful illustra- tion. The table is shown with the unfinished meal, the chairs are askew, everything seems disordered and un- comfortable, while moment before it had all seemed pleasant and cherry. The young bachelor is standing in the

AERATION OF MILK.
Some Reasons Why This Operation
Should BE Performed in Per-
fectly Pure Atmosphere.

In recent bulletin of the Michigan
experiment station, Prof. C. E. Mar
shall calls attention, among other
things, to the need of performing this
operation in a thoroughly pure atmo-
sphere.
His conclusions are in part as fol-
lows:
l. Milk undergoes aera tion when ex-
posed to air from the time it leaves the
milk duct of the COW until it is con-
sumed or made into milk products.
2. This aeration is demonstrated by
the reduction in the amount of carbon
dioxide and the increase in the amount
of oxygen.
3. 1t has been shown that aerating
methods which increase the surface of
the milk exposed, facilitate aeration
greatly.
4. BY this interchange of gases be-
tween air and milk, there is a great op-
portunity offered for the absorption of
noxious gases by the milk, unless the
interchange takes place in absolutely
pure air.
5. Agitation of milk favors the inter-
change of gases, because of the in
creased surface exposure.
6. Odors and taints resulting from
aromatic foods, physiological process
es, and disease processes may be great
ly reduced permanently.
Z. Odors and taints resulting from
bacterial lamentations may be great
the further development Of bacteria.
s. Closing milk cans from the air
consequently reduces the amount of
oxygen supply, therefore must change
the conditions of germ life.

TROUBLE BEGINS.

Trouble begins with the first back
ache Backache comes in many
forms. Sudden twinges of pain, sharp
stitches, slow exhaustive aches.
Most backache pains are kidney
pains.
The Kidneys fail to perform the
duties nature intends them to do
and the warning of trouble comes
through the back.
Neglect the kidney warning, grave
complications will surely follow.
Urinary disorders - Diabetes
Bright's Disease-are the downward
steps of neglected kidneys.
Doan's Kidney Pills cure every kid
ney and bladder sickness and the
cure lasts. Read this proof of it:

says: II made public statement in
1897 saying that Doan's Kidney Pills
had cured a member of our family
after he had suffered for years with
a weak back and kidney troubles.
He took three boxes of this remedy
and was completely cured. Now
three years have elapsed since l
made this statement and I am only
too pleased to reendorse it. | have
also used Doan's Kidney Pills myself.
obtaining the best results. l have
recommended this remedy to my
friends and neighbors as one which
can always be depended upon"
