THE PaErrY rHRoAr.

The most beautiful neck in the world
loses its charm completely unless the
texture of the skin is fine and the
color creamy white. Yet how few
necks are there which have not suf-
fered in some way from high and
tight collars. starched neckbands, or
dyed ribbons? Starch, by the way,
is often accountable for the brownish
rings seen on so many threats. Boas,
furs, turned-up coat collars, all seem
to leave some sort of stain ON a wom-
ans throat, and yet these, can be re-
moved by the simplest means. Pure
alconol, or, if preferred, pure cologne.
is about the best way Of taking off
the ordinary collar stain. 1t should
not be forgotten that alcohol used
near or on the face should always be
of the very best quality, says Woman's
Life.
In ordinary street dress a woman's
neck, provided her collar is pretty and
fits well, never causes her a second
thought; but when she is in evening
dress and the lines of the throat are
revealed, the lines and creases she
has engraved on her neck by carrying
her head awkward are source Of real
concern to her.

LEGAL POSITION OF ALEXANDRA
The legal position of Queen Alexan.
dra is very curious. So far as her
private business is concerned she is not
regarded by the laws and customs of
England as a marriad woman. The
idea of the law is that affairs of state
consume all the time of the King, and,
therefore, no responsibility for the
Queens private business rests upon
him. If the Queen contracted debts in
her husbands name he would not be
responsible for them, as any other hus:
band would. The King cannot be sued
for debt, but the Queen can be. 49,.

must get to her place of employment

smile and be agreeable.
Among this class the symptoms Of
female diseases are early manifest bv
weak and aching backs, pain in The
lower limbs and lower part of the
stomach. In consequence of frequent
wetting of the feet, periods become
painful and irregular, and frequently
there are faint and dizzy spells, with
loss of appetite, until life is a burden.
All these symptoms point to de-
rangement of the female organism
which can be easily and promptly
cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta-
BILE Compound.
Miss Abby F. Burrows, Jacksonville,
Athens Co., Ohio, tells what this great
medicine did for her. She writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-

1t is to such girls that Mrs. Pink

tends a cordial invitation to correspond
with her. She is daughter-in-law of
Lydia E. Pinkham and for twenty-five
years has been advising sick women

One should not sleep with either arm

how fatiguing the attitude is, if per-
