LAY FEVER is endemic catarrh. It
j ! is caused by some irritating sub
stance in the atmosphere during the
late summer months. 1t is generally
thought that the pollen Of certain weeds
and flowers is the cause Of it.
Change of locality seems to be the
only rational cure. The use Of Peruna,
however, stimulates the nervous system
to resist the effect of the poisonous
emanations and sometimes carries the
victim through the hay fever eason
without an attack of the disease.
A large number of people rely upon
Peruna for this purpose. Those who
do not find it convenient to change
their location to avoid Hay Fever,
would do well to give Peruna a trial.
1t has proven of priceless value to
many pconle.

Care of Household Silver.

Having read or been told that pota-
to water will clean silver, I have tried
it for several weeks; and the method
promises to reduce such work to a
minimum. Each day at dinner time.
the water in which potatoes have
boiled Is poured into a wide pan. In
this Is arranged all the silver as 1t
comes from the table. There should
be water sufficient to W the silver.
and it Is left in the pan till the dishes
are washed. The first two trials
took off the egg stains, and after a
week all general furnishes had dis
appeared. Silver powder was applied
to a few obstinate spots, and the en-
tire collection looks as II freshly
scoured.-Mary A. Clark.

FOR ENTERTAINING CHILDREN.
Some Games That Will Afford Amuse-
ment to the Little Folks.

1t is not a difficult matter to give
children a happy time, because Of
their responsiveness. To them "a
splendid time" means merely a few
folly games. some bright music, per-
haps a little dance, a light supper and
a tiny souvenir.
Their childish wishes are then more
gratifed and they go home happy as
larks.
For children from FIVE to IL years
Of age, four to eight o'clock is the best
time for the party, supper being at
about half after six.
For tiny tots, from three to six,
o'clock is a more suitable time, with
supper served at five o'clock.
When a boy or girl a write his
or her own invitations they are much
more appreciated by their little
friends.
But, for the wee tots, mother must,
| of course, send out the invitations.
AT these parties the little host or
| hostess must welcome each guest as
he or she arrives.
Mother, or some older person should
stand in the background and cordially
second the welcome first extended by
the little host or hostess.
Half an hour may be allowed for as
sembling n then the games should
begin.
A very amusing form of entertain
ment is to request each little girl to
bring her best doll, and each little boy
his finest toy dog.
Then have a baby show" and a
dog show"
Let each little girl show her baby
doll and let the judges decide which
is the "cutest," which is the --latest"
which is the "~prettiest," and which is
the "best dressed" Award the prizes
to each little mother.
After this have the dog show" Let
each little man show his dog in the
ring, and have some grown men to de
eide the various points OF the dogs
shown, and then award the prizes.
A lawn hunt is very nice for chill
dren's parties.
Souvenirs of various kinds, wrapped
In paper are hidden here and there
over the lawn and the little one who
finds the most of these packages re
civ a prize.
Peanuts or fruits may be substituted
for the packages.

lawyer.

THE NEW FERRY.

If not the bridge over Staten ISL

another ferry? Evidently that ques-
ton has been asked by others and it
has been decided that a second ferry
could be supported. Accordingly, a
company has been formed and it is
announced that boats will soon be
running.
There seems to be no reason why
a second ferry should not be a sue
less if run to suit the public. The
present ferry is mainly a continue
ton of the Staten Island Rapid Tran
sit railroad from st. George. The
boats are run more to suit the trains
than to cater to II particular traf-
fic. The present ferry must neces-
sarily continue, even if it does moth
ing but meet the trains, for Perth
Amboy is an important station for
the Rapid Transit and it must land
it's passengers on this side of the
