Science explains the phenomenon Of
red hair thus: 1t is caused by a super
abundance of iron il the blood. This
it is that imparts the vigor, the elias
ITCHY, the great vitality, the overflow
ing and thoroughly healthy animal
life that runs riot through the veins
Of the ruddy-haired, and this strong.
sentient animal life is what renders
them more intense in all their emo
tons than their more languid fellow
creatures. The excess of iron is also
the cause Of freckles on the peculiarly
clear, white skin which always accom-
panies red hair. The skin is abnormal
ly sensitive to the action OF the suns
rays. which not only bring out the
little brown spots in abundance, but
also burn like a mustard plaster, pro-
ducing a queer, creepy sensation, as If
the skin was wrinkling up.

"The good housewives of this oun
try" said an official of the State De-
partment the other day, according to
the Washington Star, will be interest
ed in a report recently received from
United States Consul Mahin at Not
tingham in regard to a newly invent
ed process Of making bread, the chief
tine and labor.
"As is well known, most of the time
required in the ordinary process Of
making the staff of life is in the prepa-
ration and treatment Of the dough.
After that has been mixed and knead-
ed it must be left to rise, a process con
Stunning anywhere from four to twelve
hours. Under the new process it Is
said that this operation is reduced to
one hours time. The process is as yet
a secret, but is said to require no addi-
tional plant or materials, the desired
effect being produced by the action of
temperatures.
cat a recent practical demonstration
the bread was made up into dough
ready for the oven in fifty-nine min
utes, and the batch of twenty-five
loavcs was produced from the raw
6our in two hours and t~hirty-five min
tiles. The flour was weighed and the
number of loaves compared with the
number produced by the ordinary proc.
ess. and it was found that under the
new process eight more quartern
loaves than usual were produced from
a sack Of -four"

"A plain and Straightforward story

told by Davis Lewis of this place bears
the ring and stamp OF truth upon 1t.

dull, heavy pains In the small Of my

my shoulders. When 1t was In my

of the Social Problem.
The problem of the underfed child Is
but one Of many social problems, yet
it is almost as important as all the
others combined. 1t means in its es-
sence the breeding Of a class Of efu-
zens who must be partially or wholly
dependent, for the reason that their
physical Acknowledgment precludes
efficiency in the work which they are
to do. When one goes through the
slums of London and Liverpool one Is
invariably impressed with the fact
that the people one sees there are 20
remain dependents, drunkards, beggars
and detectives. 1t is not possible to
hope that the individuals one see
about one are ever to master and yer
come the obstacles which confront
them.
They are bound, il would seem, to
remain in the hell ~ misery in which
they live, and no possible way seems
open for pulling Or pushing them into
the independent and ~self-reliant class

the despair whi III must be with US as
we attempt to meet the problem of
adult degeneracy, is the stirring fact
that the problem Of the child is an eve
hopeful one. AS his life may be fash
toned for evil by his early years of
training, so, indeed, without question,
his life may be fashioned for good, for,

punish or foster the results of 1t, but
il we are sincere in our wish to attack

MODERN DIISTING-

The u~p-to-date housewife, with al.
her knowledge of unwholesome atoms
and germs. no longer uses a feather
buster. She has at last begun to re-
alize that the only way to dust a
room properly is with a soft cheese
cloth rag neatly hemned and kept
especially for the purpose. When
v e necessary she puts it through
the wash as she does other household
cloths and towels. 1t is sometimes
difficult, however, to dust out with
these cloth busters, narrow
behind radiators, bookcases that are
built into the wall and other contri-
vances. With a long handled feather
duster housewives can reach into
such places. One ingenious woman
has hit upon the idea of buying an
ordinary dish mop especially for this
purpose. The fine strings in the mop
il dampened very slightly. hold the
dust where a fluffy feather buster
would only scatter it.

A good authority on Wilton and AK
Minister carpets tells us that they
should never be swept with a straw
broom. The corners and edges should
be cleaned with a stiff hairbrush and
the rest OF the floor gone over with
a good carpet sweeper. Oriental rugs
should be beaten on the line,
but should be swept in the direction
of the nap. If very dirty they ought
to be laid, face downward, on the
porch or grass, beaten with "A rattan
beater as they lie. and then turned

Deafness Cannot be Cured

By local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that Is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness Is
caused by an infamed condition of the mu-
cous lining Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube Is infamed you have a rumbiing
sound or imperfect hearing. and when IL Is
entirely closed, Deafness Is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out Of ten are caused by Ca
tarrh. which Is nothing but an infamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case Of Deafness (cadsed by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrb
Cure. Send for circulars, free.

Sure Sign That Or. Williams Pink Pills
Are Needed to Tone Up the
Digestive Organs.

Digestive Organs
Loss Of appetite, distress after eating,
shortness of breath, a feeling of utter
weakness-these are symptoms that are
familiar t o most sufferers from stomach
trouble. Too often the ordinary doctors
treatment serves but to weaken the dis
eased organs.
The new tonic method of treating dis
orders of this kind does not aim to do the
work Of the stomach, does not demand
hat the food be pre-digested, but builds
up the weakened organs, SO that they can
do the work that nature intended.
Mrs. L.O. Law, of Nc. 324 North street.
Horton, Kansas, says: "ln 1897, while
we were living on a farm in this neigh
borhood, ! became generally debllltated
as the result of overwork. | had serious
indigestion, lost my appetite, suffered
from a sense of suffocation and from OBJ
struction of the circulation, so that arti-
fetal means had to be used to restore it.
After suffering for months without find
ing any relief, I tried a box of DIR. Will
liams' Pink Pills of which I had read in
q newspaper. The first few boxes made
me lots better, and after using the third
box / felt entirely well.
81 am now in excellent health and am
able not only to take care of my house
but also to assist my husband in a store
which he has lately taken. DIR. Williams
Pink Pills cured me and I a recon-
mend them. They are so simple, so
easily taken and SO prompt in their &C.
ton"
Remember DIR. Williams Pink Pills do
not act ON the bowels. They make new
blood and restore shattered nerves. In
this way they carry health and vigor to
every organ and fiber of the body. They
are sold by all druggists or will be SENT,
postpaid, on receipt of price, 90 cents per
box; six boxes for $3.50, by the Dr.. Will
