LEFT MINDED PEOPLE.
The Way the Brains Orders Are An
nOunced and Obeyed.

The Way the Drains Orders Are An
nOunced and Obeyed.
Both sides of the brain are capable
commands to the limbs, but the orders
only come from one side, either from
the right or left, but if the side upon
which the speech center lies gets in.
jured ant- is rendered incapable of per-
forming it's duty then the other side
takes up the work, though it requires
some time before it can do so properly.
Supposing a man meets with bad
fall or accident of any kind which
damages the speech center on the left.
he becomes dumb for the time being.
Then the right side slowly learns how
to give orders, and the man guadually
regains power of speech after some
years, but in many cases he becomes
left handed because now the orders
from the brain are transmitted more
rapidly to the left than to the right.
You have often experienced, sup
pose, the curious feeling that you have
done something or met some one at
some time or other when in reality you
have not done so at all.
Supposing the left side of your brain
conceived the idea that you were go
ing to tie your boot lace and that the
right side was, say, thousandth part
of a secoDd behindhand in grasping
the same idea, the result, when the
right side did grasp it, would be that
you would imagine that you had al
ready tied your boot lace.-Dr. With

DON'T FORGET THEM.
The Party Call and the Bread and
Butter Letter.

The Party Call and the Bread and
Butter Letter.
Do not forget your party call and
your bread and butter letters, says the
Boston Advertiser. They are in their
way just as important as the party and
the visit themselves and mean much to
your hostess.
"Five weeks ago." said a woman to
me the other day, Il gave an evening
affair to which fifty guests were in
vited. Out of these only one has paid
me q party call. OF course know that
It is not Indifference or ingratitude that
has caused the omission, but / cannot
help feeling it little" The bread and
butter letter, too is not mere functory
matter, but real demand with which
we should comply. Every hostess is in
terested in the welfare of the guest
who has lately been sojourning under
her roof and whom she has just speed
ed with good will on her way. She
wishes to know if the guest has arrived
home safe and well, and not to comply
with such wish shows one lacking In
common courtesy. Yet it Is mistake
which excellent people often make
Few people forget to call upon bride,
but how many remember the call due
the brides parents as the persons who
extended the invitation to the wedding
Yet one is as binding as the other. ex-
cept Of course in cases where the
brides new home is at great distance
from that of her girlhood.

1t is said that the American woman's
profile is the finest in the world; that II
is the most clear cut and finely modelled
of any other type. Generalities like this
are hard to prove. 1t cannot be denied
that some of the finest profiles in the
history of feminine beauty are to be
found in America, but whether the av-
erage is markedly higher in this coun-
try than anywhere else is an open
question. But the ordeal is trying one
to any woman when it comes to faith
full delineation of her profile in shadow
1t is finely nodded face indeed which
looks we'll in a shadow picture seen
sideways. If the nose turns up the
least bit in real life it is sure to point
skyward in a silhouette. If that organ
is even a trifie above the usual size II
will appear huge in a shadow profile
A projecting upper lip or projecting
under lip becomes a positive deformity
in a silhouette. no matter how slight
it may be in the Observation-Disclosures Jour

STORY OF CAL-CURA.
Discovered by Dr.. David kennedy-Only
Kidney Remedy Sold Under Guarantee.

DR.. David Kennedy was born in New York
City, but at an early age his family moved
to Roxbury, NY. He was graduated in 1860
from the New York College of Physicians
and Surgeons. He at once volunteered as
surgeon and was assigned to the United
States Army General Hospital in West Phil
adelphia, and soon became President of the
Examining Board and Consulting Surgeon.
After the war, DR.. Kennedy settled in Rom
dout, City of Kingston, N. Y, where for q
number of years he enjoyed large prac-
tice as an operative surgeon. He was one
of the Presidential Electors of New York
State, Mayor of Kingston for four years,
and held many other professional, business
and political offices.
The latest achievement of his life was the
discovery of Cal-cura Solvent, positive
cure for all diseases of the kidneys and blad-
der. 1nspeaking of this remarkable remedy,
he said: "Cal-cura Solvent is the browning
achievement of my life. It will not dis
appoint"
Your druggist will return your money If
Oal-cura- fails to cure, and The Cal-cura
Company, of Rondout, N. Y, will pay the

Dreams of Peace Allure to Dea

Dreams of Peace Allure to Death.
Dreams of peace have always allured
mankind to their undoing. Human des-
tiny has been wrought out through
war. The United States is an Illus
tration. Little of the soil which now
acknowledges the sovereignty of the
Union has not been subdued by arms.
The first settlers slew the Indians or
were themselves slain; next the Ameri-
cans and English conquered the French;
afterward the Americans turned on the
English and, with the aid of France,
elected them. In 1912 we again fought
the English to defend the national
unity and subsequently took California
from Mexico by the sword. To consoli-
date homogeneous empire we crush
ed the social system of the south, and
lastly we cast forth Spain. The story
is written in blood, and common sense
teaches us that as the past has BEEN so
will be the future. Nature has decreed
that animals shall compete for life, or,
in other words, destroy or be destroyed.
We can hope for no exemption from
the common lot.
