Women and Jewels.

Jewels, candy, flowers, man
that Is the order of woman's pref
erences. Jewels form a magnetic
mighty power to the average wo-
man. Even that greatest OF all
Jewels, health, Is often ruined In
the strenuous effort to save the
money to purchase them. If a
woman will risk her health to get
a coveted gem. then let her fortify
herself against the insiduous conse-
quences of coughs, colds and bron'
chlal affections by regular use of
DR.. Boschee's German Syrup. It
will promptly arrest consumption
In Its early stages and heal the af'
fected lungs and bronchial tubes
and drive the dread disease from
the system. It Is not a cure all,
but 1t Is certain cure for coughs,
colds and all bronchial troubles.

more oil in the table cruet than two

tableSpoonfuls Il hT'tcr, one OF
chopped parslr.. one of lemon juice
and a pinch of salt. Work these in
gradients together thoroughly and
serve with fish or steak.

HOW HE LOST HER.

He hardly dared to touch her hand:
He deemed she was so far above him
That he would never haze the sand
To even think that she could love him.
And so he let concealmcnt prey
Upon the cheek he lacked so badly
And dumbly watched her day by day
And mope6 about and acted sadly.
1t may be she his secret guessed:
II so. she never seemed 20 show ii;
But. then. ii love is rot expressed
A girl can't be Supposed to know il
She let the foolish fellow call:
He had a crude idea OF spoon!nS;
He seemed afraid 10 talk at all
And sat and took it out in incoming.
Another SHitor came at last,
Who was not shy about his wooing:
She knew ere many minutes passed
That there was something certain dong
And one week from the day they met
His ring was on her second hnger;
Also the happy day was set;
That lover surely did not linger.
And No. he dropped and pinned,
Recovered. some time later mated.
And ever after was inclined
To thank his lucky stars he'd waited.
The moral is, when all is done
Our love we should not hide or smother
But anyway, it's six of one
And half dozen of the other.
