a baseball mask over the face and mosquito netting over the vocabulary; because if you only say to him: How's the health?' you will find in the morp- ing paper column interview, in which you have decided to run for mik&do on the Democratic ticket.
 Good Togie:-When you arrive at the depot in your home town you will find lined up in front of the baggage room about 67 young ladies, all with their lips puckered up in the most kissifactory manner-but don't do 1t, Togie.
 Friend Togie:-Resist the awful temptation to go down the line and plant burning kisses on the front teeth of these beautiful maidens, because after planting these kisses the harvest will be the long grass of oblivion, and you will find yourself rushing madly through the comic papers trying to bite all the fair ladies therein.
 Fine Togie:-When you meet this awful situation, as meet it you will. sheer gently at the puckered lips and repeat over and over the old lroverb: Osculation is the thief of reputation.
 Then with naughty glance at the lady kissing bugs jump quickly into your ginrickeyshaw and gallop swiftly home to the loving arms of your wife.
 If the kissing buggettas should fol- low you to the sacred precincts of the home circle send your mother in-law out with the broomstick, and may a kind heaven help those who cannot run fast enough.
 Beloved Togie:-Now listen with all your ears. This advise I give you from the heart. Don't let any con- mittee present you with a house

Uncle Peter is one of the gamest little chunks of humanity that ever looked the world in the eye, but when he heard the edict put forth by Dr. Osler the old man went overheard with q splash
 He was under water a long time.
 He thought the Bogey Man had him for sure.
 Uncle Peter felt that it would no longer be possible for him to pass a drug store without some young fellow rushing out with handkerchief full Of chloroform and yelling: Here, you old chestnut! here's where you get t in the nose."
 In the dark watches of the night Uncle Peter used to wake up covered with cold precipitation, because he had dreamed that Doc Osler was pounding him on the bald spot with baseball bat after having poured hair dye all over his breakfast food
 At last Uncle Peter got so nervous l advised him to write to the doctor
 Ask him if he won't commute your sentence because you live in the coun- try and are commuter," I suggested.
 The doctor replied to Uncle Peter at once, and I will try to translate his letter from Johns Hopkins into pure English, as near as I can remember:
 Johns Hopkins, To-Day.
 Dear Uncle Peter: When cut loose with the observation that men were all in at 40 and rauss mittim at 50 l kept several exceptions up my sleeve.
 The exceptions include you, Uncle Peter. and myself also.
 Tt could not apply in your case, Uncle Peter, because I have known you since we lived together in Baltimore many moons ago, ana I realize that the years have only improved you, Uncle Peter, and that to-day you are q bigger shine than you ever were.
 One point about my observation which seems to have escaped the eyes of the general public, but which you suggest so delicately in your letter, Uncle Peter, will be found in the beau tiful words of the poet who says:
 Some advertisement now and then
 Is needed by the greatest men!'
 Don't mention it, Uncle Peter, for what I tell you is confidential, but do you know that my little bunch of re- marks, which cost me nothing anyway because I was invited to the banquet, have given me more widespread ad- vertisement than Andy Carnegie can get for IS public libraries?
 You know, Uncle Peter, there is nothing in the world so easy to make

something expensive, and then dis honor him afterwards by watching what he does with it.
 Noble Togie:-There are only two ways hero can remain hero in this strange world of ours. One way is to die just after he has heroed, and the other way is to get in glass case and stay there-but he must buy the glass case himself.
 Unbeatable Togie: the pub lie gets jag of joy from the intoxica- tion of your success they will surely rush up to you with the plans and specifications of fine bungalow with but when they do so just place the left hand in the apex of the waistcoat and say to them with a cold glitter In the lamps: I thank you, public, for this display of generosity, but would prefer that you keep the bun galow and I will keep my own little flat on One Hundred and Ninth street, because I know the janitor there and he never steals the milk
 Nice Togie:-Republics and any old kind of publics are always grateful while the jag of joy lasts. They are dead anxious to give hero more than is coming to him, but after the jag of joy wears off then comes the bitter morning after, when they wake up with the head full of third-rail mi- crobes and the tongue like bridge with the draw open, and they keep saying to themselves: Why did give that hero such a nice house, be- cause, to save my soul, can't rsmem- Der just what kind of heroing he did to deserve it.
 My dear Togie:-Avoid the kissing buggettas and don't pay any attention to the house committee and possibly you will be able to keep on your heroesque way to the bitter end
 'I have never been a hero myself. Togie, with the exception of one after noon when I sunk an armored cruiser cook in our kitchen after she had swallowed a bottle of vodka and was bombarding the gas stove with our best set of china dishes, but I love all the heroes, and if any little advise of mine could help hero to keep busy at the job of heroing I would be pleased and tickled internally. Yours with love,
 JUNGLE PETER"
 Togo hasn't replied as yet, but Uncle Peter expects a postal card or a hand-painteu fan in every mail.

So-called wandering pains" may come from its early stages, or the presence of danger may be made mani fest by profuse monthly periods, accom- panied by unusual pain, from the abdomen through the groin and thighs.
 If you have mysterious pains, if there are indications of inflammation or dis placement, secure a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound right away and begin it's use.
 Mrs. Pinkham. of Lynn, Mass, will give you her advice if you will write her about yourself. She is the daugh- ter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham and for twenty five years has been advising sick women free of charge.
 Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
 s' I take the liberty to congratulate you on the success have had with your wonderful medicine. Eighteen months ago my periods stopped. Shortly after I felt so badly that I submitted to thorough examination by and would have to undergo an operation.
 '' Soon after I read one of your advertise nents and decided to give Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound trial. After taking five bottles as directed the tumor is entirely gone. I have been examined by physician and he says I have no signs of a t1Inor now. It has also brought my periods around once more and 1 am entirely well.7-Fannie D. Fox, Chestnut Street. Bradford, Pa.

BABY COVERED WITH SORES.
Would Scratch and Tear the Flesh Un- less Hands Were Tied-"Would
 Have Died But for Cuticura."

My little son, when about year and a half old, began to have sores come out on his face. I had physi- clan treat him, but the sores grew worse. Then they began to come on his arms, then on other parts of his body, and then one came on his chest, worse than the others. Then 1 called another physician. Still he grew worse. At the end of about a year and 8 half of suffering he grew so bad I had to tie his hands in cloths at night to keep him from scratching the sores and tearing the flesh. He got to be a mere skeleton, and was hardly able to walk. My aunt advised me to try Cuticura Soap and Ointment sent to the drug store and got cake of the Soap and a box of the Oint- ment, and at the end of about two months the sores were all we'll. He has never had any sores of any kind since. He is now strong and healthy, and I can sincerely say that only for your most wonderful remedies my precious child would have died from those terrible sores. Mrs. Egbert Sheldon, R. F. D.

GIANT RADIsHEs OF THE EAST
There the Vegetable Grows to an
 Enormous Size.

Radishes in North China and in Japan are as important and ubiqui- tous part of every meal as is bread in America. In both countries many millions of bushels of this vegetable are grown every year, and they are to be had at all seasons It is thus easy to understand why these parts of the world grow the strangest and biggest radishes known.
 The giants beside the little French Breakfast our fayorite American va riety, are but babies beside the mon sters they grow under the warm, moist influences of the oriental eli mate
 These radishes are grown on Amer ican soil from seeds imported by the United States department of agricul- ture from China They take we'll to the American climate, and probably would have weighed five pounds when full grown.
 When these fellows are grown in China they rapidly form great bril- liant red globe eight to ten inches in diameter and weighing sometimes 20 pounds Another kind is snow white and grows a foot long, and still an- other is a brilliant green on the out side and a beautiful wine red when the skin is cut. Some of these strange vegetables are exceedingly delicate in flavor and texture when grown under favorable conditions.

GOOD NIGHTS SLEEP.
No Medicine so Beneficial to Brain
 and Nerves.

Lying awake nights makes 1t hard to keep awake and do things in day time. To take "tonics and stimu. lants" under such circumstances is like setting the house on fire to see if you can put it out.
 The right kind of food promotes re- freshing sleep at night and wide awake individual during the day.
 A lady changed from her old way of eating, to GrapeNuts, and says:
 For about three years l had been a great. sufferer from indigestion. After trying several kinds of medi- cine, the doctor would ask me to drop of potatoes, then meat, and so on, but in a few days that craving, gnaw- ing feeling would start up, and 1 would vomit everything l ate and drank.
 When I started on Grape-Nuts, vomiting stopped, and the bloating feeling which was so distressing dis appeared entirely.
 My mother was very much both- cred with diarrhea before commence ing the Grape Nuts. because her stom- ach was so weak she could not digest her food. Since using Grape-Nuts she is well, and says she don't think she could live without it.
 sIt is a great brain restorer and nerve builder, for 1 can sleep as sound and undisturbed after a supper of Grape Nuts as in the old days when, I could not realize what they meant by bad stomach" There is no medicine so beneficial to nerves and brain as good nights sleep. such as you can enjoy after .e9ti Grape Nuts" s
