The Badge of Honesty

Is on every wrapper of Doctor Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery because a full
list of the ingredients composing it Is
printed there in plain English. Forty
years of experience has proven its superior
worth as u blood purifier and invigorat-
ing tonic for the cure of stomach disorders
and all liver ills. 1t builds up the run
down system as no other tonic can in
which alcohol is used. The active medic
inal principles of native roots such as
Golden Seal and Queens root, Stone and
Mandrake root, Bloodroot and Black
Cherrybark are extracted and preserved
by the use of chemically pure, triple
refined glycerine. Send to DR.. Il. V. Pierce
at Buffalo. n. Y, for free booklet which
quotes extracts from well-recognized med
ical authorities such as DrS. Bartholow,
King, ,Scudder, Coc, Ellingwood and a
host of others, showing that these roots
can be depended upon for their curative
action in all weak states of the stomach,
accompanied by indigestion or dyspepsia
as well as in all bilious or liver complaints
and in all wasting diseases" where there
is loss of flesh and gradual running down
Of the strength and system.
The Golden Medical Discovery makes

Ring and Results"

Yorkville New Era.
Mr.. Creighton is the editor of
thsChristian Appeal, a ly
religious paper published at
Greenwood, South Carolina.
In his paper Mr.. Creighton
wrote and published certain artl-
cles criticising the methods en-
ployed by the government of the
church IN this State. One of these
articles, and the one that caused
all the trouble, appeared under
the heading "Ring and Results"
The editorial said:
"For many years the existence
of a ring in the South Carolina
conference has been boldly as
serted and the charge is believed
by many TO be true"
The article then discusses what
is meant by a ring and states that
such a charge could be proved
either by direct testimony or cir.
cumstantial evidence. The edi.
torial continues as follows:
"We shall consider in their
order circumstances that show
conclusively concert of action for
definite purposes, if not existence
of combination in the confer
ence.

THE ART OF IRONING.
Easy 60 Do Well, With a Little Care
and Labor.

Some valuable instructions In the
art of ironing for the amateur or ig-
norant professional are given in n re-
cent monthly. Too many people iron
carelessly and stupidity, when a little
time and labor expended on h care
OF the irons. and system in arranging
things for the work before It is be-
gun will greatly lessen the difficulty
and shorten the operation. A good
light, a clear bright fire, when gas is
not used, a good set of irons, not too
light, and not too heavy for slender
arms, an ample board covered with a
blanket and a clean cloth sewed or
tackled, not laid on; with these ma
terials and patience, care and endur-
ance, anybody can with a little prac-
tice turn out as good work as a laun-
dry. The irons must be kept in good
condition, frequently rubbed with
brick dust and oil, and polished on a
piece OF carpet or coarse cloth every
time they are used. And they must
be allowed to rust.
Some fastidious people have an OBJ
lection to having their underclothes
ironed at all, for they know the care
less ways of inferior domestics, who
use dirty irons, mix clean and soiled
garments, and leave the clothes hang
ing in a smoky, f~y-ridden kitchen for
days at a time. One particular wom-
an has her lingerie brought up to her
from the outside line, sweet and fresh
from the winds of heaven, and prefers
to ear them with only a little pulling
out of the frills, but for most of us
that would seem too unfinished and
rough. So teach your maids to be neat,
clean and quick about these things.
OF course, clothes need to be aired
thoroughly, but they are not improved
by lying around the kitchen or laund-
dry too long. A simple wrinkle is to
make YOU ironholders round in shape,
S 70 that they do not hang down over
the iron at the corners A clean cloth
at the right hand is the proper thing
on which to test its heat. Cotton and
muslin garments should be evenly
damp or they will not take a smooth
gloss, and to accomplish this purpose
a clean cloth and a bowl of cold wa.
ter are the best combination.-Mon
treal Herald.

only the genuine materials or the best
limitations are worth buying. The
handsomest ones are ieweled. which
brings them to a fabulous price.
In selecting any comb, be careful
to choose one with long teeth curved
so that the comb feels firm in the hair.
1t is both dangerous to the comb and
embarrassing to the wearer to have
it fall. If you arc within reach of any
Chinese importer, he is the best n
to furnish you an ivory comb. The
Chinese have been quick TO learn u
desires, and they have adapted their
h%andiwork accordingly. Some of their
shops display combs carved in exquis-
lite designs. Many of these are set
with stones. Two smart examples Of
the up-to-date couture ornaments are
shown. The one on top is of shell in
amber In Spanish style, the other pos
sesses distinct beauty of its own, and
is quite the newest fancy.

and offered in dainty individual sets
at small tables. A lunch room of this
kind, If properly administered, Is a
source of profit except in small SUI
burban villages where homes are
within easy reach and no one wishes
to take n meal at n restaurant.
The attendants in a woman's eX-
change must be courteous, accommo-
dating and sensible. They do not de-
eide questions of price. nor do they
pass upon the quality and quantity of
goods received. This latter duty falls
upon the board Of managers or a Sc
lected subcommittee. The attendants
have precisely the obligation of the
clerk in an ordinary store; they stand
between the customer and the mer-
chant, the merchant in this instance
being the consignee. If they are good
saleswomen they will often be the
means of causing much satisfaction
to both parties.
The bookkeeping al a woman's eX'
change must be accurate and exact and
the utmost care must be taken to keep
a detailed account of every transaction
Returns to consignees should be ex.
tremely prompt. If articles after q
suitable interval are found to be unsal
able the consignees have no cause fol-
complaint, If their property is re-
turned in good order.
Anyone wishing to address a WON.
ans exchange may do so by the sim
pie method of sending a letter by mai
directed to the president of the WON
ans exchange. a%ppending city and

such letters to the proper place. AL
that is necessary is to be assured thai
the town in question possesses an ex

A KENTUCKY WOMAN
How She Gained Fifteen Pounds IN
Weight and Became Well by Taking
Or. Williams Pink Pills.

Women ut forty, or thereabouts, have
their future in their own hands. There
will be n change for the better or worse,
for the better If the system is purified by
such n tonic as DIR. Williams Pink Pills.
Mrs. ID. G, Wedding, of Hartford, KY,
writes as follows concerning the diff
culties which afflicted her:
81 was seriously i'll and was confined
TO my bed for six or eight months in all,
during two years. l had chills, fever,
rheumatism. My stomach seemed al
ways too full, my kidneys did not net
freely, my liver was inactive, my heart
beat was very weak and 1 had dizziness
or swimming in my head and nervous
troubles.
"Iwns under the treatment Of several
differcnt physicians but they all failed
to do me any good. After suffering for
two years l learned from an Arkansas
friend about the merits of DIR. Williams
Pink Pills aud 1 decided that 1 would
try them. The very first box / took
made mo feel better and when 1 had
taken four boxes more was entirely well,
weighed fifteen pounds more than when
/ began, resumed my household duties,
aud have since continued in the best OF
health. L have recommended DIR. Will
lians' Pink Pills to many people OF ac-
count of what they did for me, and / feel
that l cannot praise them too strongly"
DIR. Williams Pink Pills restored Mrs.
Wedding to health because they actually
make new blood and when the blood is
in full vigor every function of the body
is restored, NNcause the blood carries to
every organ, every muscle, every nerve,
the necessary nourishment. Any woman
who is interested in the cure of Mrs. We'd
ding viii want our book, "Plain Talks to
Women" which is free on request.
All druggists sell DR.. Williams Pink
Pills, or they will be sent by mail post
paid, on receiptof price, 90 cents per box,
six boxes for 81. 80, by the DIR. Williams

BEES CLOSED A MINE.
Swarmed in Millions and Men Were
Unable to Work.

There are instances In great rambler
whore mining operations were tenn
porarily suspended by a shortage OF
funds or by water flooding the proper.
ty, but it remained for Mohawk. a
small station along the Southern Pa
cilc, to furnish a new cause which Is
unique in the history OF mining. The
company affected owns the Red Cross
mines in the Mohawk mountains.
Millions of bees, attracted by the
water at these mines and forced from
their hives in the mountains by the
drought. took possession of the water
supply, and their numbers were so
great that II was found impossible to
drive the swarms away. Consequently
the mines have been shut down until
the rainy season sets in. when 1t Is
hoped the bees will return TO their
mountain homes.-Sacramento Bee.

WATER AS A DlslNFEcTANT.
One OF the Most Valuable for Use In
Sick Room.

It is a fact not generally taken into
account. because but imperfectly n
derstood, that pure, fresh. cold water
is one Of the most valuable disinfect-
ants, inasmuch as II is a powerful alb
sorbent. Every sickroom should have
a large vessel of clear water, frequent
ly renewed, placed near the bed, or
even beneath 1t. This not only alb
serbs much of the hurtful vapor, but
by its evaporation it softens and tenn
pers the atmosphere, doing away with
the dryness, which is so trying and
depressing to an invalid, or even to
persons in health. for that matter. 1t
has frequently been shown by actual
experiment that troubled sleep and
threatened insomnia are corrected by
so simple a thing as the placing of an
open bowl of water near the sufferers
bed. On the same principle, water
which has been standing in an open
vessel in a sleeping room or a sick
room should under no conditions be
used for drinking; nor should any
liquid intended as a beverage be al
lowed to thus stand open to contami.
