WOMEN GAINING IN W
Have Recently Been Granted Many
Privileges in Norway-Advance
Claimed in Canada.

Students of female emancipation
may be interested to learn from the
report of the National Council of
Women in Norway that that country
has recognized the right of women to
sit on a jury; that the storthing re-
Gently nominated a woman as the
winner of the Nobel prize, and th?t
"a school has been started to instruct
young girls in the responsibilities of
citizenship as we'll as in the care of
children. 1t is also learned that the
number of women who voted for the
separation of Norway from Sweden
was greater than that of the men.
These and other facts of similar
character were brought out at a re-
cent meeting of the Women's insti-
tute in London, where one of the
speakers, a Mrs. Fitzgibbon, who
claimed to belong to the race "of
vikings of British North America, "
asserted that Canadian women were
in a position to rule Canada owing to
their advanced views and perfect or
ganization the moment an entering
wedge could be made by which they
might gain the power of suffrage.

Health in Hot Weather.

Not much meat should be eaten in
hot weather; less food of any sort is
needed than in winter. Food has two
functions; as fuel to sustain heat; as
energy to move the muscles. The one
need is almost wholly and the other
largely suspended in July. Alcoholic
drinks are doubly dangerous in hot
weather. Iced weak tea is an excel
lent drink if one dips out the ice and
throws it away, allowing the liquid
to lose its chill. Iced water in fami,
lies should be prepared by setting
sealed jars of water in the refrigera-
tor at a distance from the ice, never
by putting cracked ice in the goblets.
4 temperature of AZ degrees is low
enough for drinking water. Extreme
fatigue should be avoided, but it is
not true that lit doesn't pay to get
heated up going out of town" Young
children who both become i'll and re-
W. more quickly than adults, are
often literally saved from death by a
single day in cool air.

FOUR YEARS OF AGONY.
Whole Foot Nothing But Proud Flesh
Had to Use Crutches-"Cuti-
cura Remedies the Best on
Earth"

'In the year 1899 the side Of my
right foot was cut off from the little
toe down to the heel, and the physi-
clan who had charge of me was try
ing to sew up the side of my foot, but
with no success. At last my whole
foot and way up above my calf was
nothing but proud flesh. 1 suffered un-
told agonies for four years, and tried
different physicians and all kinds Of
ointments. l could walk only with
crutches. In two weeks afterwards l
saw a change in my limb. Then l be-
gan using Cuticura Soap and Oint-
ment often during the day, and kept
it up for seven months, when my
limb was healed up just the same as
if l never had trouble. 1t is eight
months now since l stopped using
Cuticura Remedies, the best on Gods
earth. I am working at the present
day after five years of suffering The
cost of Cuticura Ointment and Soap
was only Sc, but the doctors bills
were more like 5000. John NJ. Lloyd,

MARK TwAIN's EARLY HUMoR
Advertisement for Lost Umbrella, and
Hartford" Toast Proclaimed
His Coming Greatness.

In his early Hartford days Mark
Tw0in took an active interest in base
ball in common with most Of his fell
low citizens, says Harper's Weekly.
While attending an exciting match he
lost a gold-headed umbrella, which he
advertised in the local papers some
what after this fashion:
"Lost-S10 reward. A g%old-headed
umbrella was lost by the undersigned
on the grandstand at the baseball
ground on Saturday. 1t was probably
stolen from him while he was engaged
in cheering the Hartfords for their
victory over the Providence nine
presumably stolen by a red-headed,
freckled face boy about IL years old.
For the body of the boy and the UNI
brella delivered at my house on Farm
ington avenue $40 will be paid. For
the body of the boy or the umbrella
separately, IS for either. For the boy
alive, nothing under any circum-
stances" This advertisement was
signed with his full name and address.
At a dinner given by some local
mercantile or business organization
Mr.. Clemens responded to the toast
of Hartford" In his speech he glori-
fed the city as the one place in the
world which provided for every pos.
sible human need. He said that Hart.

which to kill men, but printed books
to tell them how to live and Bibles
to tell them how to die. In short
it supplied all their needs, not only
here but even hereafter.

Preaehes Simple Life.

Solomon Neva, the prophet of the
simple life in its EXTREMIST sense, has
arrived in Paris in the hope of inter
esting prominent persons in his
scheme of founding a s|anitarium in
the mountains where he would have
only children as his patients and
would bring them up to live a purely
natural life. Neva lives on raw fruit
and vegetables, never touching eggs,
milk or butter or meat of any kind.
He does not even drink water and
bathes only about once a year, and
he believes that a daily rubbing down
with a towel is sufficient to keep the
body clean. He has a curious history.
having once been in the Dutch con
sular service. He lost a fortune Of
100000 francs in an unsuccessful cot
fee plantation in Java and since then
has gone about the world in strange
garb, preaching his new doctrine.

Nothing Succeeds Like uEao.o-sEE.n

Nothing Succeeds Like "EGo-o-sEE."
The man who breaches the)best SER
mon; the man who tells the funniest
stories; the man who keeps. the best
store; or the nan who makes the best
goods soon finds that people come to
him. Merit is the best advertisement
in the world. People speak well of
things they know are good. They pass
the good word along.
The best breakfast food IS EGG-O-
SEE, for it contains all the life-giving
properties of natures best food, which
is wheat.
EGG-O-SEE is deeply in debt to the
thousands of wives and mothers who
S it in their homes, for these good
women tell their n~eighbors about this
great food.
Children and aged persons alike are
friends Of EGG-O-SEE.
Merit and common sense are the
things that advertise EGG-O-SEE
most. EGG-O-SEE is cheap. A 10
cent package contains ten liberal
breakfasts. EGG-O-SEE is sold every
where. Grocers must keep it if they
want to keep their good customers,
for good customers insist on buying
EGG-O-SEE.
The fact that no preparation, NO
cooking is required, makes EGG-O-
SEE very popular. Open the package;
put as much as o likSn a dish;
pour on milk or cram and eat. 1t
is delicious. 1t is wholesome. 1t
makes you strong.
A lot of interesting facts about
EGG-O-SEE have been published in

A well-known criminal lawyer one
day sauntered into a police court just
as a case was called. 1t appeared that
the defendant had no attorney, and
the judge glanced about the room to
see whom he might assign to the case.
"Ill take it, judge" the late conner

DIDN'T BELIEVE
That Coffee Was the Real Trouble


Some people founder around and
take everything that's recommended
but finally find that coffee is the reaI
cause of their troubles. An Oregon
man says:
For 20 years I was troubled with
my stomach. l was a steady coffee
drinker, but didn't suspect that as
the cause. 1 took almost anything
which someone else had been cured
with but to no good. 1 was very bad
last summer and could not work at
times.
ION Dec. 2, 1902, I was taken so
bad the doctor said 1 could not live
over "a hours at the most, and l
made all preparations to die. I could
hardly eat anything, everything dis
tressed me, and 1 was weak and sick

fee was abandoned and l was put on

came quickly after the drink that was
poisoning me was removed.

but l would refer you to the First
