OF all the disagreeable fads know to
mankind the bill-collecting fad is about
the worst.
The Zenith of Excellence.

The musical records used on talking
machines have been constantly improv-
ed, year by year, and always by the
Columbia Photograph Company, the
pioneers and leaders in the talking ma
chine art, with the result that their
new High Speed Moulded Records
touch the zenith of musical excellence.
The scratch, the metallic and other dis
agreeable features of earlier records
are entirely and absolutely eliminated
in the moulded product. The moulded
records are indeed perfect in respect Of
smoothness and sweetness. They ire
loud, rich and harmonious. Bring
your instrument out from its summer
seclusion and try the moulded records
on it and you will be amazed at the adj
vance made in the art. Columbia re-
cords are the best. The new High
Speed Moulded Records have no com.
petitor. Fifty cents each, IS a dozen.
Write for catalogue. Ask about the
new reproducer The GraphophonC

The Stomach Is the Man.

A weak stomach weakens the man,
because it can not transform the food
he eats into nourishment. Health and
strength can not be restored to any sick
man or weak woman without first re-
storing health and strength to the stom-
ach. A weak stomach can not digest
enough food to feed the tissues and re-
vive the tired and run down limbs and
organs of the body. Kodol Dyspepsia
Cure cleanses, purifies, sweetens and
strengthens the glands and membranes
of the stomach, and cures Indigestion,
dyspepsia and all stomach troubles. H.

 "By thunder but if you let that dog in here you ought to be rolled in the road!'

 Then he went around the corner to the paint store to get pinch of putty, and on his way back he saw a man open the gate and walk up the steps and ring the bell. s.
 That man was marked for destruc- ton. He had rung for the second time, when he heard a great chatter and a hoarse breathing behind him, but before he could turn around he was yanked backward down the steps and mopped over the grass. He was a man who was canvassing the street in the interest of home for old cats and had been told that Mrs. Bowser wouldn't give less, than $1O, but he didn't stop for the subscription. He wriggled loose while MT. Bowser was trying to get better hold, and he didn't stop to say goodby as he fled.
 "Durn my hide if don't dabble my hands in human gore" gasped MT. Bowser as Mrs. Bowser came to the door to ask him not to kill any one. "I'm going to paint these steps if we have earthquakes, cyclones and cata- clysms by the dozen, and the next thing on legs that walks up 'em has got to die!''
 It was dinner time before the work was done. Then a board was nailed across, the sign Paint was hoisted into conspicuous place, and MT. Bow ser retired from the field with a feel ing of complacency. He changed his clothes, ate his dinner and sauntered out for an evening view of his work.

The Pretty Fad of the Bedroom Cam
 dIe-Neat Pine Furniture.
 "At early candle lighting is pretty phrase that will be heard once more to describe the twilight, and the small at tention of lighting and handing a lady her bedroom candle is among the gal lantries revived with old fashions. For as in century old English country houses, so in modern electric wired homes, from Maine to California, our architects are putting ln Jacobean Waanscoted halls, for which the occu- pank, never fails to furnish mahogany table fFetghted with candles. Guests go tvinkifng up the stairs like indoor torchiight processions, and, sensible or not, no one can deny the charm of the sight. Consequently one is collecting candlesticks, and all the shops are full of them = in Dresden china and in wrought iron, in Spanish pottery and In silver plate, with fascinating extin- guiShers and snuffer trays, in burnish- ed brass and in turned mahogany, tall enough to stand on the floor and still Illuminate the upper regions.
 With the candlesticks, and often with out them, goes the fancy for old fash toned chtntz or cretonne hangings. Wall paper comes nowadays with charming cotton hangings to match. You may cover your side walls with nosegays or colonial stripes and use the same pattern in woven goods for cur taans or bedspreads. They are excel lent for testers to high, four post bed stead and make good coverlets to the more modern kind, with a finish of white cotton fringe in little balls or tas- sells.
 The prettiest bedroom set for the country seen for many a day was of Georgia pine with low head and foot boards for the bed, dressing table and high chest of drawers, two or three chairs, light desk and medium sized table. All the supports were straight, solid upr1ghts of wood, lightness being given by a very simple balustrade, wherever such an effect could be ap- propriately used, and the decorative re- lief to theyeye was afforded by the love Iy reddish grain of the wood itself.
 A very different effect would be pro- duced by the use of cretonne, as in a bedroom recently finished for guest room. Toilet table, writing stand and a portable window seat were covered with gay lowered cotton, stretched to fit smoothly over the wooden frame work. The mirror frame was also GOV cred, rufled draperies being hung on brass supports around it.-House Beau tifuI

 That settled it. Half an hour later he had got into an old suit of clothes and was ready for. business. His first move was to paint sign of Paint and stick it up on the gate, and rhe had hardly begun on the steps when a man came along and halted to say:
 q do not exactly understand. see no paint on this gate. Is it that you intend to paint it later onY
 Don't you see paint on these steps?" asked MT. Bowser as he rose up.
 ''I do, but the steps are not the gate. I am naturally of conf1ding, trusting disposition, sir, but this is going too far too far. If you really intend to paint the gate have nothing to say, but if your object is to deceive people, then, sir-then let me say that you are an old .scoundrel and pass on.''
 MT. Bowser got down to the gate as fast as he could, but the kicker had lOO GJIC Ol I1G LOOk down the sign, however, and nailed it up on the steps, and after brushing away for fifteen minutes he entered the basement for a drink of water He came out to find a knife grinder about to wiring the front door bell, and after one look he yelled:
