Are You Tired, Nervous
and Sleepless?

Nervousness and sleeplessness are us
ually due to the fact that the nerves are
not fed on properly n%ourishing blood;
they are starred nerves. DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery makes pure,
rich blood, and thereby the nerves ara
properly nourished and all the organs Of
the body are run as smoothly as machine
cry which runs in oil In this way you
feel clean, strong and strenuous-you are
toned up and invigorated, and you are
good for a whole lot of physical or mental
work. Best of all, the strength ana in
crease in vitality and health are lasting.
The trouble with most tonics and med
cines which have a large, booming sale
for q short time, is that they are largely
composed of alcohol holding the drugs in
solution. This alcohol shrinks up the rec
blood corpuscles, and in the long run
greatly Injuries the system. One may feel
exhilarated and better for the time being,
yet in the end weakened and with vitality
decreased. DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery contains no alcohol. Every
bottle of it bears upon its wrapper The
several ingredients. For the druggist to
offer you something he claims is s'just as
good' is to insult your intelligence.
Every ingredient entering into the
world-famed Golden Medical Discovery''
has the unanimous approval and endorses
ment OF the leading medical authorities
of all the several schools Of practice. No
other medicine sold through druggists for
like purposes has any such endorsement.

only produces all the good effects to be
obtained from the use Of Golden Seal
root, in all stomach, liver and bowel
troubles, as in dyspepsia, b~illiousness, con-
stipation, liberation of stomach and

Golden Seal root used in it's compound

MoD1sH %coIFFURE.

the hat. 1t is a fact that many women
dress their hair solely with a view to
meeting the exigencies of their hats.
With the expert milliner the hat Is
tried with reference to the profile, and
next in order the back is ~scrutinized,
while the front is passed over with a
brief glance. Apart from the hat the
couture is often impossible.
The wreath is still worn for the the
alter. Velvet bows mixed with a circle
of roses or leaves with natural cherries
or a circlet of miniature holly leaves
and red berries has a black sequined
bow for the front. Loosely made ro-
settles of soft satin are popular and are
put on with one pinned in front toward
the right, and the other at the nape
of the neck, but on the hair. This is
a style particularly affected by young
girls, with whom the larg, bow of
black or white satin or taffeta contin-
ues to be worn. Fol any gown on the

one of the most becoming angles, par
ticularly with this style of dress, is
to set 1t horizontally. Gauze ribbons
tied in a twist and finished with up
standing bows, the quill tied in with
ribbon loops, are among the pretty
things seen in the shops and are also
furnished by the best costumers to &c
in with evening gowns. For the put
ting in of airgrettes there is a new
ornament, it m in a little jeweled
crown or half moon comb.

CURLING FEATHERS.
The Work Is Done by Hand-How
Some Are Built Up-About
Farming.

Curling Is always done by hand. FAX
ing a small steel instrument like a
blunt knife, the operator carefully
takes each frond of the feather and
skilfully presses it with a finger and
thumb against the instrument until
the rib curls out in a graceful bow.
Patience and care make, or otherwise
mar, the ostrich feather at this stage
of its existence.
Another branch of the business is
the manufacture" of ostrich feathers.
The best bits of the smaller varieties
are taken in hand by skilled female
operators, who cut and trim them up
carefully, and then fix the bits to-
gether upon a stock with needle and
thread until a perfect looking feather
is made. Ostrich feather boas are
made on this principle from the finest
small feathers.
In the early days of ostrich farming
great fortunes were made. Feathers
were then worth e100 per pound, the
pfumes of a single bird often realizing
$40 to $50. For a good pair of breed
ing birds it was no uncommon thing to
pay as much "a $500. But none Of
these prices could be got 10Y From
sever to eight guineas a pound is the
usual price at the present time for fine
ostrich feathers. The mourning plumes
used by undertakers are Of the largest
variety, and sometimes cost as much
as $500 a set.

FOR THE BRIDES TABLE,.
Suggestions for Decorations at a
Wedding Feast-About Arrange
ment of the Tables.

Table and house decorations just
now are very much in the minds Of
the many prospective brides who will
have home weddings and receptions
within the next few months. Each
young woman considers this the great
est event of her life, and she is anx-
ious to have every detail of the func-
ton beautiful and effectively carried
out.
A pretty arrangement and adorn-
ment of the tables have everything to
do with the rooms good appearance.
Small ones, set out in horseshoe shape,
make an outline that some brides favor
for the good omen of the arrangement.
Some one with poetic understanding
Of the truth that the wife Is the
warmth and light Of a household, as
we'll as it's center, simply grouped the
tables about the hearth, the brides
being nearest to 1t. Placing the Ia
bles on a circle, with the brides in
the center, looks we'll, especially when
hers is directly under the chandelier
and %garlands radiate from the latter
to each of the other tables. This
decoration can be used, however, only
when there are not too many points of
attachment in the circle and when the
garlands are fastened to the highest
part Of the chandelier. If there are
too many strands, or they are put too
low down, they will surely interfere
with the bridal party.
A glass vase completely wound with
white satin ribbon and filled with
white sweet peas, giant white sweet
alyssum and m%aidenhair ferns makes
a lovely and unusual centerpiece for
the table given up to the wedding
party. Unless the cloth is Of lace the
a should be set on a lace dolly
and a bit of the fern laid about its
base to distinguish it more clearly
from the dolly. The vase, slender and
absolutely smooth of surface, and at
least ten inches high, should be close.
ly wound with two-inch ribbon and
II fancied a bow may be tied low down
On the stem. A little fitting and a
few stitches are needed to cover the
base and the lip of the vase.
A little white satin slipper overflow
ing with blossoms and resting on q
bed of them is a dainty decoration fol
all the tables at a wedding feast If one
cares to buy so many slippers.
Again, for the bride a triple array
Of flower baskets Is charming, and the
same decorative scheme can be car
ried out in single baskets on the other
tables. When this is used the middle
one of the group Of three needs g
rather high, slender handle. To this
ribbon is tied in a bow, and the ends
are brought down to smaller low-han
died baskets close by on each side ant
again tied in a bow on these. Tht
two end baskets should face the mid
die one at right angles.

me!
Seriously, I am very happy here:
spending my days entirely out-of.
doors; reading a little, learning a little
Italian and smoking i~nordinately.
Now and then l go of for long RAM
bles on the neighboring hills, visiting
quaint old world villages and catching
stray glimpses of the snowy Appen-
mines that bound the further valleys
Sometimes l have a companion OF my
excursions-the daughter of the house.
| forget whether l mentioned in my
last letter that my hostess had q
daughter.
Such an engaging child! Barely II
and has lived all her life at San Stsf-
ano. Think of that. We're strange
companions, she and 1! Her mother,
the good signora, is careful to tell ne
that she only allows the girl to ae-
company me because | am English.
There's a compliment to my fellow
c%ountrymen! l can't take it to myself
alas! l fear that If the signora knew
more about my reputation she would
scarcely trust her daughter to my care
so readily. Not that the girl is not
safe with me. I'm no st. Anthony
where are concerned-more's
the %pity-but l can't conceive a man
who would be base enough to harm
anyone so fair and sweet as this child.
Fresh from her life at the convent
school, she knows simply nothing OF
the world. l suppose l am the only
man with whom she has ever con-
versed with any freedom. There is
something almost sacred to me about
her superb innocence and freshness. ]
don't mind telling you that there have
been times lately when l wished that
I was something rather different from
what | am.
But 1t won't bear thinking about;
besides, it is nc news to you, and, what
is more, it's not for want Of your help

HOW TO WEAR THE HAIR.
Velvet Ribbons and Ornaments Of Va

ion for My Lady's Tresses.

Something in the hair is again one
of the must HAYES. For day wear the
black velvet ribbon is beginning to
rival the elaborate set of combs. 1t is
put on two ways, either as a slood
hidden at the sides of the low rolled
hair, or it is tied around the high knot
with a bow in front.
A bunch of little curls intermixed
with a putt or two is the fashionable
knot, and it is done at an exaggerated
height and in the evening Is tied

THE WHITE PAINT OF THE
WHITE HOUSE.

The White House at Washington.
which BIAS been the Kings Palace"
of the American People since 1t was
first s-seupied by President Madison
in 1905, has recently undergone a
thoradgh curse of remodelling, reno.
walton and repair. Every American
citizen is owner of an undivided
eighty or e~ighty-five millionth part Of
the White House, as well as of the
other Public Buildings and Monuments
in the Capitol City. An item in the
renovation of the remodelled White
House was repainting. Every visitor
to Washington knows why the White
HouSe is so called-because it is lit.
orally a white house.. The exterior
paint must therefore be white. Now
while the pure white surfaces and sim,
pie lines Of the White House, set in
the midst of green lawns and beauti
full trees, produce a very satisfying
effect of dignifed simplicity, white
paint from a practical point of vie
is about the most unsatisfactory kind
of paint that could have been selected
by the original designers. First, be
cause any white paint is easily dis
colored by smoke and dust, and sec
ond, because ordinary white paint
itself gradually turns gray or brown
ish yellow from exposure.
But white the White House is and
white it must remain or it would nc
longer be the white House.. So the
%renovators, making the best of a dis.
couraging situation, sought for the
best kind of white paint procurabe
The average citizen if asked to guess
what kind Of paint they finally decid
ed on would probably answer-"white
lead and OIL" but he would guess
wrongly. The paint selected as the
best obtainable was a ready mixed
paint, such as can be bought in any
well furnished village store, such as
is used by more than half Of the
eighty or e~ighty-ive million owners
Of the White House on their OWL
homes. That one brand of mixed
paint was used instead of another is
a mere accidental detail-there are
fifty or a hundred brands on the
market that might have been selected
in other circumstances, and in fact
a different brand was used in paint
ing the Capitol.
Every property owner, therefore
who paints his house with a higf
grade ready-mixed paint is following
the example set by the Government
Authorities at Washington, who uset
ready-mixed paint, because they coult
find nothing else as good.
