The ideal Family Laxative.

Is one that can be used by the entire
family, young and old, weak and
strong. without any danger of harmful
effects. 1t should have properties
which insure the same dose always
having the same effect, otherwise the
quantity will have to be increased and
finally lose its effect altogether. These
properties can be found in that old
family remedy, Brandreth's Pills, be-
cause its ingredients are of the purest
herbal extracts, and every pill is kept
for three years before being sold,
which allows them to mellow. We do
not believe there is laxative on the
market that is so carefully made.
BraDdreth's Pills are the same fine
laxative tonic pills your grandparents
used. They have been in use for over
a century and are for sale everywhere.

The Zulu War Cry.

The Zulu war cry, used whenever
they take the field by the South Afri-
can footballers now in London, has
puzzled our newspapers, not one OF
which seems able to spell it correctly,
says Notes and Queries. The Daily
Express gives it as 'Igamilzho," and
the Daily Mail as "Gammillo." The
cry really consists of two words, and
should be written rIgama layo."
"Igama" is Zulu for name" and
"layo" is possessive pronoun, mean
ing either his or their" Thus the
Daily Mail, although quite wrong in
its photography of the cry, is right in
saying that it merely means THAT is
his name" The explanation is that
Zulu etiquette does not allow warriors,
when they rush into battle, to men
ton the names of their enemies, but
the leaders shout out, THAT is his
NAME pointing to the victims with
their spears.

THE TICKING OF THE CLOCK.
Soothing Company to Some Sieepers
Cause of Wakefulness in Others.

Not all people," said the jeweler,
like the ticking of a clock; it is a
pleasant sound to most people, but
not to all.
Some people, clock lovers these,
couldn't sleep without a clock in the
same room. Its ticking is company
and it scares away the spooks. Such
people would wake up if the clock
should stop in the middle of the
night.
But there are other people who
can't sleep with a clock in the same
room and who, if they found them.
selves in strange place anywhere
with a clock in their sleeping apart
ment, would stop the clock before
they went to bed.
''Of course there is much of habit
in this; but we have our fancies about
clocks, as we do about all things
else"

A Rule and an Exception.

According to the New York Trib-
une. a country paper lays down this
rule of etiquette: when a lady and
gentleman are walking in the street,
the lady should walk inside of the
gentleman"
1t seems a little strange that this
simple rule, so long current among
the cannibal tribes of the Andaman
and other islands, should find it's way
into rural journal of more or less
civilization. 1t would appear that the
etiquette editor Of the paper in ques-
ton was either too careless or too
hurried to note any exceptions to the
rule Otherwise he would have ex.
planned that when the gentleman was

Every mother possesses information
which is of vital interest to her young
daughter.
Too often this is never impaired or is
withheld until serious harm has result
ed to the growing girl through her
ignorance of natures myst Rf.ouS and
wonderful laws and penalties.
Girls over-sensitiveness and modesty
often puzzle their mothers and battle
physicians, as they so often withhold
and conceal the symptoms which ought
to be told to their physician at this
critical period.
When girls thoughts become slug
gish, with headache. dizziness or a dis
position to sleep, pains in back or lower
limbs, eyes dim, desire for solitude;
when she is a mystery to herself and
friends, her mother should come to her
aid, and remember that Lydia E. Pink

this time prepare the system for the
coming change, and start this trying
period in a young girls life without
pain or irregularities.
Hundreds of letters from young girls

gratitude for what Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound has accomplished
for them, have been received by the

NEW IDEAS IN EMBROIDERY.
Double Motive in Working Of Designs
Upon Taffeta.

Women who like to embroider can
get up some very pretty designs using
the new embroidered silks as patterns.
One woman made up a very pretty
brown taffeta in a medium shade, and
upon this she marked out little cir
cles, diamonds and arrow shaped silk
of precisely the same shade as the
background. 1t was a great deal of
work, but the effect was indescribably
rich.
1t has been discovered by some one
feta not only improves the general ap.
pearance of the silk. giving it a very
expensive look, but it also makes the
taffeta wear better, which is much in
its favor. Taffeta that has been
strengthened by the working of little
silk figures all over it will outwear
two or three times the taffeta that is
made up plain. But the working OF
the figures certainly is tiresome, call
ing for lots of patience and good eye
sight.
1t looks just now as though brown
would be worn a great deal and the
shops are laying in some very hand.

cloth. One can do SO much with
brown, and it is color that is always
so ladylike and appropriate. 1t is
hard to go wrong, in dress matters, II
one clings to brown.
One of the loveliest of brown tat.
fetas is trimmed with bands of brown
cloth put on in great plaided design
around the foot of the skirt which has
no other trimming. There is an EN-.
broidered circle in the middle of each
square. Another brown taffeta is
made with plated skirt and apron
waist. The apron waist is in sus.
pender form and is worn over a very
smart brown and red plaid silk shirt
waist. So one can see how these
dresses can be varied to look very
handsome and very appropriate to
