Hubby-How Long Are You In For, Dear3
TRAVELLERS Etiquette.
Don't Act as Though Every Stranger
Were a Suspicious Character and
Be Polite to Attendants.

Condescension is a language that be-
longs to every summer traveller, and
which is spoken as much through looks
as through words. There is no mistake
SO great as that of assuming when one is
away from home a proud reserve and ex-
necessary in order to ward off dreaded
f~amiliarities, for it is easy to look about
you with kindly eyes that do not invite
others to attempt to take advantage Of
your good nature.
Above all things, be ready and glad to
give information when it is asked of you
and to offer it when it seems needed, as
though you felt happy to be of use, and
not in too much of a hurry to lend a
hand to anyone in difficulties. There is
absolutely no need of knocking about
this good-natured old world in a dread
OF being imposed upon or misunder-
stood. This is a fear and a mistake that
makes ones way hard if you go along
giving tips in a grudging fashion and re-
turning a brief answer with a cold
glance to the stranger who asks you the
shortest route to the next town, the hour
at which the next boat leaves, or volun-
teers a word of friendly comment on the
scenery or information concerning some
historical spot.
If you wish to understand the fine art
of being a happy traveller, you will be
most ready always to say please and
thank you to everybody, and especially
to those who are employees in trains and
steamers. Always give a tip with a
pleasant word and an expression of one
who gladly makes some return for sery-
ices rendered and accept any advances
toward acquaintance or slight verbal in
%tercourse with a stranger and fellow pas
senger without looking affrighted, indif-
ferent or affronted.
Shyness or lack of interest or reserve
in a traveller is so often misinterpreted
as snobbishness or actual i'll temper that
it is best always to think before re-
bufing a stranger who wishes only to
be polite and not intrusive. Whatever
the majority approve the happy traveller
is prompt in making his habit, too, and
in consequence he is sure to please and
to charm wherever he goes, to find help
ing hands extended to him in a moment
of any difficulty, and to be considered a
delightful companion for a journey.

Voice from Arkansas.

Cleveland, Ark, July 3lst. (Special).--
Nearly every newspaper tells Of some won
derful cure Of some form Of Kidney Disease
by the Great American Remedy, Dodd's
Kidney Pills, and this part Of Arkansas
is not without its share of evidence that
no case is too deeply rooted for Dodd's
Kidney Pills to cure.
Mr.. A. Z. Garlic, well known and highly
respected here, tells of his cure after near
ly a quarter Of a century's suffering. Mr..
Garlic says: 3,
81 want to let the public know what /
think Of Dodd's Kidney Pills. I think
they are the best remedy for sick kidneys
ever made.
81 had Kidney Trouble for % years and
never found anything that did me so much
good as Doddfs Kidney Pills. 1 recon-.
mend them to all sufferers"
There is no uncertain sound about Mr..
Carlile's statement. He knows that
Dodd's Kidney Pills rescued him from a
life of suffering and he wants the public
to know it. Dodd's Kidney Pills cure all
Kidney ills from Backache to Bright's
Disease.

Many Flowers Used

The fashion of trimming hats with
several varieties of flowers is hard
to grow enthusiastic over. One little
hat Of the poke bonnet order was
trimmed around the brim with pansies.
rosebuds, lilacs, cowslips and green
leaves. The effect was good enough,
as Gar as the color combination was
concerned, but the mixture was too in
congruous. One would not have great
ly cared to see SO many flowers to-
'gether in the garden. Some combina-
tions are attractive. A green tulle
turDan trimmed with pale lilacs and a
few pansies was delightful. Likewise, a
sailor of lilac straw wreathe6 with
dserer lilacs and very gorgeous pan
s:er. Much discretion should enter into
any combination Of flowers.

Some of the quaintest of baby dresses
have copied from new Longing robes
the defining of the waist line by rows Of
shirring, or rows of lace insertion. The
effect in the tiny dresses is exquisite.
Soft gray suede is the foundation for a
beautiful girdle, which is studded with
cut steel beads and ends in a cut steel
buckle.
Leather belts for children come in
every shade to match, or to tone in with,
the little Russian blouse dresses they
are worn with.
Soft. filmy chiffon is gathered into
girdles high all the way round, but es-
pecially SO directly in front and back.
Colored spangles are in evidence, too;

SOME SUMNER FASHIONS.
Net Is Considered a Very Smart Fab
ric This Season and the Plain
Is the Favorite.

Thin, soft fabrics reign supreme this
summer for afternoon gowns, and the
woman who does not look pretty in
such a gown is a hopeless case even
for a beauty doctor and facial concoc-
tons.
Such filmy f1ounces Of embroidery,
that is so fine and so open in pattern
as to look flower-like in it's beauty!
Such softly drawn folds of materials as
drape the figures of well-dressed wo-
men in graceful lines, that 10 artist
could improve upon! Such delicately
blended color as lend a glow and life
to this seasons costumes! One might
exclaim for hours over the points of
beauty in this summers gowns and
still leave half the tale untold.

NO MORE HEADACHE
GENERAL WEAKNESS AND FEVER
DISAPPEAR TOO.
How n Woman Was Freed from Trouble
That Had Made Life Wretched for
Many Years.


The immediate causes of headaches
vary, but most of them come from poor
or poisoned blood. In analnia the blood
is scanty or thin the nerves are imper-
fectly nourished and pain is the way in
which they express their weakness. In
colds the blood absorbs poison from the
mucous surfaces, and the poison irritates
the nerves and produces pain. In rheu-
matism, malaria and the grip, the poison
i'll the blood produces like discomfort. In
indigestion the gases from the impure
matter kept i'll the system affect the
blood i'll the same way.
The ordinary headache-cures at best
give only temporary relief. They deaden
the pain but do not drive the poison out
of the blood. DIR. Williams Pink Pills
on the contrary thoroughly renew the
blood and the pain disappears perma-
nently. Women in particular have found
these pills an unfailing relief in head
aches caused by anemia.
Miss Stella Blocker recently said: cdr.
Williams Pink Pills did me a great deal
of good. had headache nearly all the
time. After ! had taken three boxes of
these pills I became entirely we'll"
"How long had you suffered" she
was asked.
"For several years. I can't tell the
exact date when my illness began for it
came on by slow degrees. I had been
going down hill for many years."
"Did you have any other ailments?"
"Iwas very weak and sometimes Ihad
fever. My liver and kidneys were at

statement of some person who was cured

Pills. My physician hadn't done me any

Miss Blocker's home is at Leander,
Louisiana. DR.. Williams Pink Pills are
sold by all druggists. Besides headache
they cure neuralgia, sciatica, nervous
prostration, partial paralysis and rheu-
matism.

Writers say that men are growing
closer to nature, and l can safely affirm
That women are, too, so far as dress is
concerned, that harmonizes with the
spirits of nature and borrows from her
all that is fairest and best, in blended
colorings and simple lines Of grace.
Among summer gowns net is very
smart, and this announcement will be
greeted with delight by women Of
small means, for if there is anything
cheap, pretty and durable it is net.
Just think, one can buy net for SO
cents a yard, and it is double width,
and five or six yards will make a very
full dress. Isn't that cheap? A bit of
lace for the yoke and cuffs is all the
trimming necessary, although more
trimming can be added at pleasure.
Dotted nets are not anything like as
smart as plain ones are this summer
and point d'esprit is better than dotted
nets for gowns.

Flying Experiment.

A flying experiment which carries
with it a good deal of interest has been
carried out at Billancourt, in France.
The experimenter was M. Voisin, who
seated himself ready for flight on a
raft towed by an auto boat. At a given
signal the auto boat put on full speed,
the machine began to rise, and M.
Voisin, cutting himself adrift from the
auto boat, maintained a steady flight
for about 300 yards, at a height of
about so feet. He then brought him
self gently down to the surface of the
water.

ULCERS FOR THIRTY YEARS
Painful Eruptions from Knees tt

Another of those remarkable cures by
Cutioura, after doctors and all else mad
failed, is testified to by Mr.. M. G. Moss,
of Gainesville, Texas, in the following
letter: For over thirty years l suf-

Progressive JAMS.

Japanese students and schoolboys 20
years ago had no appreciation of ath-
letics. They took too serious a view
of their duties to waste on games the
time that might be devoted to studies
and they had to be driven by their
early English professors and teachers
into the play grounds as though to a
disagreeable task. Now they take a
keen interest in rowing, lawn tennis
and baseball, though cricket, with its
long periods of enforced inactivity,
does not appeal to them.
