4 KENTUCKY WOMAN
How She Gained Fifteen Pounds in Weight and Became We'll by Taking
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills.

Women at forty, or whereabouts, have their future ill their own hands. There will be change for the better or worse, for the better if the system is purified by such tonic as Dr. Williams Pink Pills. Mrs. D. c. Wedding, of Hartford. Ky, writes as follows concerning the diff. culties which afflicted her:
 "I was seriously i'll and was confined to my bed for six or eight mouths i'll all. during two years. l had chills, fever. rheumatism. My stomach seemed al. ways too full, my kidneys did not act freely, my liver was inactive, my heart beat was very weak and I had dizziness or swimming ill my head and nervous: troubles.
 "Iwas under the treatment of several different physicians but they all failed to do me any good. After suffering fol two years 1 learned from an Arkansas friend about the merits of Dr. Williams Pink Pills and I decided that l would try them. The very first box I took made me feel better and when I ha6 taken four boxes more was entirely we'll, weighed fifteen pounds more than when l began, resumed my household duties, and have since continued ill the best ot health. l have recommended Dr. Will Iams' Pink Pills to many people on ac. count of what they did for me, and feel that cannot praise them too strongly. :"
 Dr. 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, because the blood carries tc every organ, every muscle, every nerve, the necessary nourishment. Any woman who is interested ill the cure of Mrs. Wed. ding will want our book, "Plain Talks tc Women," which is free on request. l All druggists sell Dr. Williams Pink l Pills, or they will be sent by mail post. paid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per box.

WHY YOUNG TREES ARE BEST.
They Can Easily Be Trained to Any
 Desired Form.

These are the advantages of plant. Ing young trees: They can be trained to the desired form better than old CT trees, says Farming. A two or three-year-old tree is branched and has it's head already formed by the nurseryman; a yearling tree of the apple, pear and sweet cherry is usu- ally unbranched. Sometimes the nursery man has headed the tree too high or has not been careful enough about starting out the scaffold limbs, and it is difficult to correct the form of the head after it has been started.
 There is an unmistakable prefer ence for low-headed trees, due chief ly to the need of economy and eff ciency in spraying and harvesting. The single advantage of low heading is greater inconvenience in tillage. This is much more than offset by the ad. vantages, in the judgment of most growers. Within ten years the height recommended for heading apple trees in the east has been reduced at least two feet. The bearing of this on the matter of yearling trees is that the grower can head yearling tree where he pleaseS.

Soups for Cold Weather.

When cold weather sets in then is the time for hot soups. Cream soups are the rule in summer. Fruit soups, to introduce midsummer luncheons, and even dinners, are more and more used every year in country houses. Stew fresh cherries, blackberries or raspberries in as much water as there is fruit. Then mash them, press them through a sieve to extract the seeds, sweeten, thicken slightly with arrow root and simmer gently until the soup is limpid A little lemon juice or wine can be added for zest. Or red GU
 rants may be used with the fruit
 Fruit soups are served ice cold in bouillon cups. Two or three fresh cherries or berries are sometimes fioated in the cups. Grapes may be used when cherries are out of season.

 to the Housewife.

Just knowing when and how to do a few little tricks about the household IS of no end of value in saving time, worry and expense To clean the porcelain kettle, fill it half full with hot water and put in a tablespoonful Of powdered borax; let it boil. If this does not remove all the stains, SCOUT with cloth rubbed with soap and borax.
 A cork soaked in oil makes a good substitute for a glass stopper.
 Apply a drop of oil to the door hinges to keep them from creaking.
 Kitchen tables may be made white as snow" if washed with soap and wood ashes. Floors look best scrubbed with cold water, soap and wood ashes.
 Add to the covered brick used as a door stop a strip of the covering sewed strongly to the sides, and raised just enough to admit the foot, then lift It by the toes and save stopping
 To purify the air of the cellar and destroy parasitical growth, place some roll birthstone in pan, set fire to it, close the doors and windows as tight ly as possible for two or three hours; repeat every three months.

 Maggie was tingling with indigna- tion. She had caught Hickey fairly in the act of robbery; she had heard him confirm the maddening story that he meant to marry Carrie Downs at day light. She was thrice more anxious than before to fly to Tarnahan's and save her friend, but Hickey would now be there as soon as she. She would nave 10 resort 10 some other plan to stop the wedding.
 Maggie fancied she could see old Justice Carey cross as a badger, thin as knife, gray as the desert, standing before Carrie and Hickey snapping out the words of the sacred ceremony.

pauperism in British Isles.

Indoor pauperism is said in the Brit ish official record. to have grown rap idly in England and Wales since 1900.
