If metal beds are chosen with an
eye to their keeping bright and then
given just q little care, there is no
necessity for their turning duh and
furnishing. Experts say that brass
ought not to tarnish if it is properly
treated in the drs1 place and the
brass trimmings to white beds are the
first places usually that show wear.
Be careful in getting your bed to see
if the trimmings Tor the bed itself,
il it is all brass) are carefully fin
ished. If you do not know the signs
yourself, ask some one who does; it
may cost a little more than you
thought, but it will be less in the long
run. Enameling can be done (rsdone,
that isl at home with very little
trouble. And enamel paints cost so
little that there is no excuse for let
ting white iron bed so shabby, even
though frequent landings may have
SCARED the enamel here and there.
Once in every few weeks, toe, an
enamel bed should be gone over with
a soapy rag: it is surprising how
much dirt will come off and how
fresh the enamel will look after it's
cleaning.

On the arrival Of the carriage they
we're met and ushered inmediss .ely
into the sick mans chamber, where
strange priest, lawyer and one or
two servants as witnesses were al
ready assembled.
Stamford glanced obviously toward
his uncle whose face was chalky
white and fea1fulIy emaciated, and
knowing that death was Inevitable,
he noted with a sigh Of relief that the
once keen, black eyes had dulled to
everything save bare perception.
Scant preparations had been made
for the bridal, and just five minutes
were consumed in tying the Gordian
knot
Half an hour passed and the dark
ened sick room became the chamber
Of death. The newly welded couple
fingered for a solemn moment, then
silently left the room to prepare for
the return journer.

"Hoss Corn on the Cob

The "hot corn" season does not
bring unalIoyed joy into the life of the
waiter of the better class restaurants
Of New York, says the World. One Of

cocktail: 'How's the corn to-day?'
Fine I say. When it comes | bring

it over three or four times and says
with a frown. Take that back, I've

LAY FEVER is endemic catarrh. II
! i is caused by some irritating SUBJ
stance in the atmosphere during the
late summer months It is generally
thought that the pollen of certain weeds
and flowers is the cause of it.
Change of locality seems to be the
only rational cure. The use of Peruna,
however, stimulates the nervous system
to resist the effect of the poisonous
amanations and sometimes carries the
victim through the hay fever season
without an attack of the disease.
A large number of people rely upon
Peruna for this purpose. Those who
do not find it convenient to change
their location to avoid Hay Fever,
would do well to give Peruna trial.
1t has proven Of priceless value to
many people.
