Have Proved Their Worth.

The campaign undertaken by inter.
ested publications to undermine the
faith OF the people in proprietary
medicines has drawn forth the follow
ing from a high medical authority:
1T must never be forgotten that the
interest of the manufacturer is to put
out remedy which is not only meri-
torious but safe. With a small army
of enemies constantly on the alert,
ready to seize upon and magnify every
unfavorable circumstance, how few
are the cases of accident or injury
from the use of proprietary medicines!
Complaints in regard to the use of
such remedies are exceedingly rare
and utterly Insignificant, in COMPARE
son with the amount sold and the mil
lions of people who avail themselves
of these remedies"

and dinh Ideals.

When Horace Greeley was a boy
one of his mates said to him one Sat
urday: Come, Hold, let's go fishing"
Let's do our stent first" was young
Horace's characteristic reply. Even
in his youth he wanted to get some
think done promptly and well. What
wonder is it that when he became a
man, and an editor of one of the most
powerful journals in America, he still
wanted to do something with his pa
per, to have it strike heavy blows in
behalf of human freedom, happiness
and progress? And any man who
cherishes high ideals of usefulness
and governs his life by them will
never be accused of going through
motions. He will be able, on the 9TH
er hand, to point to something done
when the summons comes to go up
higher.

The Ideal wife.

A Chicago clergyman preached a
practical sermon on the ideal wife.
The necessary attributes he dwelt on
especially were truth, gentleness and
pleasing appearance.
To attain the realms of the ideal a
wife must be absolutely truthful to
her husband; she should never criti-
else her husband, nor be a scold; she
must look her best at all times, and
it is sin for her to be careless about
her personal attire in the presence OF
her husband.
These are the quite sensible points
made during the course of the sermon
but there was one essential virtue
omitted. The reticence that will pre-
vent woman from ever confiding tc
people outside her home what trou
bles she may meet with there.
But when are the clergymen going
to tell the world what the ideal hus
band should be?

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 mysterious and
wonderful laws and penalties.
Girls over-sensitiveness and modesty
often puzzle their mothers and battle
physicians, as they so often withhold
their confidence from their mothers
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
