their bones and extracting the gluten
therefrom. Mr.. Pages Bone Mealisa
by-product from the manufacture OF

and mix with this Bone Meal and
you will find it worth double the cost.

HOW to Do MANY useful Thinr..

Greasy dishes Should be washed in
tepid soapsuds and rinsed in clean,
scalding water. Very hot water ap-
piled at first hardens the grease. Tepid
suds dissolve it and the hot rinsing
water leaves the dishes glossy and
bright and easy to wipe.
Meats for roasting should not be
washed, but should be wiped with a
damp cloth.
The dlshcloths In a well regulated
house should be boiled with soda once
or twice a week
If before grinding the morning cof-
fee the berries be heated for a few

A nervous, irritable mother, often on
the verge of Mysteries, is unfit to care
for children it ruins a child's DISPOSE
ton and reacts upon herself. The
trouble between children and their
mothers too often is due to the fact
that the mother has some female weak
ness, and she is entirely unfit to bear
the strain upon her nerves that govern
ing children involves; it is impossible
for her to do anything calmly.
The ills of women act like frebrand
upon the nerves, consequently nine
tenths of the nervous prostration, ner-
vous dependency. "the blues" sleep
lessness, and nervous irritability of
women arise from some arrangement
of the female organism.
Do you experience fits of depression
with restlessness, alternating with
extreme irritability? Are your spirits
easily affected, so that one minute you
laugh, and the next minute you feel
like crying?
Do you feel something like ball ris-
ing in your throat and threatening to
choke you; all the senses perverted
morbidly sensitive to light and sound !;
pain in the ovaries, and especially
between the shoulders; bearing down
pains; nervous dyspepsia, and almost
continually cross and snappy?
If so, your nerves are in shattered
condition, and you are threatened with
nervous prostration.
Proof is monumental that nothing in
the world is better for nervous prostra-
ton than Lydia e. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compounds thousands and thou
sands of women testify to this fact.

T'he amount of real estate mortgages
on the attle spot of ground occupied by
