A REAL COMFORT
for every home.

Many comforts and conveniencesf for the
home are denied the masses of the people
for the reason of their expense. There is,
however, one comfort that is in the reach
of every family from the day-laborer to
the millionaire, an article which is needed
and can be used to good advantage every
day. This article is PARACAMPH,
First Aid to the Injured, a combination
of cooling, soothing, healing oils and
camphor, especially prepared oquick1yr re-
lieve the aches and pains of every member
of the family. Mothers of course realize
the necessity of such an article in their
homes, and as the use of Paracamph has
proven that it is far superior to and more
useful than Arnica, Witch Hazel, Vase
line, Liniments, ETC., it is to the interest
of every mother to try Paracamph at once.
Paracamph is absolutely pure, clean and
safe and its powers for quickly relieving
and curing pains and aches are truly re-
markable. Don t hesitate; try Paracamph
to-day. Every bottle is guaranteed Trial
size 25c; family sizes SOC and $1.OO. The

Here is story that comes from
the Wenona fire department.
Pat was recent importation, but
instead Of landing a job on tn foorce
he got an assignment as a teamster.
Unaccustomed to the ways of this
country, he was continually getting
into trouble with his wagon, owing
principally to the fact that he insisted
upon turning to the left instead of the
right.
At last these occurrences became so
numerous that the stable boss in
formed him he would give him just
one more trial.
Pat had been away from the barns,
after this warning, only a short time
when word came that his outfit had
been badly demolished again and the
report was confirmed later by Pat him
self.
Didn't I tell you always to turn
to the right?" asked the boss.

GOOD BLOOD FOR BAD

'In the lead mines was ut work on my

obliged to lie in bed for several days at n

troubled were getting no relief from
doctors and did not feel encouraged to
throw money away for nothing. BY
chance l read the story of Robert Yates,
of the Klauer Manufacturing Co., of
Dubuque, who had a very bad case of

PRETTY FLOWER CLOCK.
Tlmepieee In the Garden That
Teaches Lessons In Nature.

Ilmepiece IN the Iaroen mat
Teaches Lessons In Nature.
The children's grandfather made
them a wonderful clock. 1t was out In
the garden, and by 1t every one could
tell the time of day. or what do you
suppose he made It? Flowers, and
this is the way he did 1t.
First, says the Washington Star, he
made a great flower bed and divided
it into twelve parts. The divisions
were marked out by rows OF box
plants, and in the center was post
three feet high. This post had two
hands on it, but, of course, these were
only for show. A sun dial on the post
told the time truly in case any Of
the little flowers got out Of order.
AS some plants open only at night
the twelve divisions of the clock were
divided into parts. On one side were
night, on the other day boomers.
At 4 in the morning goatsbeard and
blue chickory opened. The petals Of
the chicory were a bright blue. They
grew lighter in color until they were
nearly white. The children called the
flowers "Miss-go-to-bed-at-n as IL
o'clock found all their petals closed.
At s o'clock the morning glory and
poppy opened their eyes.
At 6 the yellow hark-weed and dan.
delions.
At o'clock the water lilies were
in all their glory and IL the day was
fine s o'clock found the pimpernel
with its red eyes wide open. At 8
marigold and tulips spread out. At
10 Stars of Bethlehem were at their
best, for at IL they were found all
shut up. At IL o'clock the lazy pas
sion flowers awoke and sweet peas
then triumphantly unfurled their
many-colored banners. At 2 daisies
were the brightest and at o'clock
in the afternoon the flower appropri-
ately named four-o'clock was ready to
show itself.
At o'clock the beauty of the
night" awakes and at the evening
primrose was blooming its loveliest.
At the white lychnis (only night
bloomer) opened and later still the
night primroses put out their white
bloom.
At 2 o'clock in the morning the pur-
pie convolvulus awoke and wondered
il the sun had forgotten to get up.

REMEDIES USED BY MILLIONS
Truth About the Popular proprietary
Medicinesu

The recent campaign against the
use of proprietary medicines, conduct.
ed in the columns of The Ladies'
has evoked an answer from the Com.
mittee on Legislation of the Proprie-
tary Association. The committee says:
I'm considering the question raised
by recent attacks upon proprietary
medicines, every reasonable man will
admit that there is wide and legiti.
mate field for the manufacture and
sale of medicines already prepared
for general use and easily obtainable
at all times and everywhere. .
AS a matter Of fact these medicines
are not patented at all, and the popu-
lar use of the word patent in connec-
ton with them is misnomer. Any
cally the only patent medicines in
use to-day are those which are manu-
featured either by foreign or domestic
pharmaceutical houses, and which are
now almost exclusively dispensed by
physicians or designated by them in
their prescriptions.
"The medicines which are now the
subject Of wholesale attack by Mr..
Box and Editor Hapgood are the old
fashioned family remedies properly
described as proprietary medicines
They are the favorite remedies among
millions of people all over the coun
try; and, Notwithstanding the con-
slant effort nf nhuciniorc IN
ate prejudice against them, no one
ever yet heard Of any of the millions
of users of such remedies asking for
legislation or other action adverse to
them"

A wet sheet and a flowing sea,
A wind that follows fast
And fills the white and rustling sail
And bends the gallant mast;
And bends the gallant mast, my boys
While like the eagle free
AwaY the good ship flies, and leaves
Old England on the lee.
o for a soft and gentle wind
l heard a fair one cry;
But give TO me the snoring breeze
And white waves heaving high;
And white waves heaving high, my la
The good ship tight and free
The world of waters is our home,
And merry men are we.
There's tempest in yon horned moon,
And lightning in yon cloud;
But bark the music, mariners!
The wind Is piping loud;
The wind is piping loud, my boys,
The lightning flashes free
While the hollow oak our palace Is,
Our heritage the sea.
