DOGS USED FOR CADDIES

The dog caddy is the striking innovation
that presents itself in spring golhng.
Some young women have introduced the
dog caddy upon the links with great sue
cess and others are buying and training
dogs in order to follow the example.
Some predict. indeed. that in time the
golf fields will be as thickly sprinkled
with dog as boy caddies.
What advantage. as a caddy, has the
dog over the boy?'
To the originator OF the dog caddy
system that question was put the other
day. She said:
The boy caddy costs from Is cents 70
25 cents an hour. Thus an afternoon $
goling with boy eats a big hole in 81.
But dog caddy costs nothing.
With the boy caddy you are constant
" losing balls. Balls cost 50 and 81 a
dozen. and. when one disappears your
boy is none too anxious TO help you find
1t. for, If he finds it later himself. he can
sell it AZ a good price. But with the dog
oaddy YOU never lose a bah. The dog
with his fine sense Of smell. will train a
golf ball as he would a rabbit.
Boy oaddies break appointments.
When they DO. You must oaddy for your

The temperature conditions for the

In Our Mothers Time.
QUAINT FASHIONS OF DRESS IN
THE WAR PERIOD.

RESS has changed very much
in the past forty years, in fact
IL 1t hardly seems credible that
American women wore such
Immense hoop-skirts a third of a CEN

but the standard remedy for women has
not It is the same now as 1t was IN our
mothers time.
In the old days ii was sometimes con-
sidered fashionable to be delicate, pale
and with an inclination to faint at the
least provocation. II is different now.
America is raising a strong race-a race
of strong and vigorous mothers. When
a woman becomes nervous, suffers from
backache, sleeplessness, a general tired
out and tagged feeling, with dragging
down pains, she turns to the night rem
edy. She is positive she can get relief
and assistance from DR.. Pierce.
Backed up by over third of century
of remarkable and uniform cures, a
record such as no other remedy for the
diseases and weaknesses peculiar TO
women ever attained, the proprietors OF
DR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription now

they ask is fair and reasonable trial
OF their means OF cure.
There is every reason why women
should net trust their delicate constitu-
tons in the hands of unskilled persons.
1t requires thorough medical education
to appreciate and understand the wonl-
anly organism. When woman has ills
and pains that she cannot bear-when
life seems dark for any woman, she
should confide her troubles to a physi-
clan of standing in the community, or
one who has a national reputation. Ger
tainly it would not be the part of wisdom
to conhde III an ignorant person withou:
