the warm-hearted and unselfish labors
of this good woman have reached and
wakened into virile life the inherent
good of men and women all over our

will touch many hearts when it is

God and men love a womanly woman,
and when the empty show of thousands
now in the public eye shall have been
forgotten the boys and girls Of her
useful day, tottering with age, but sus-
tanned by hope she discovered to them,
will bless her memory In heartfelt
praise, calling upon the world they live

THE RISING STORM

N REATER than all other public en-
tT terprises in California the Owens
" river aqueduct stands foremost
in the minds of the people Of Los An
geles When some months ago tho
question of voting s2s,Ooo,0OO bonds for
carrying out that vast work was sub
mitted at the polls the people voted
overwhelmingly In favor of that act.
The success of the sale of those bonds
has never for an instant been in doubt.
There stands today but one thing in
the way of, carrying the great under
taking to satisfactory consummation,
and that thing is the liquor trust Nn-
trenched behind the supervisors of Los
Angeles county.
Two licenses have been issued for tho
sale of intoxlcants along the line Of the
aqueduct. Two shanty saloons at i'm
portant point mean serious menace
to the success of the enterprise. Two
stumbling blocks in the pathway Of
those commissioned to carry out the
construction work of the great water
system.
People of Los Angeles are in no mood
for further quibbling. Such flimsy ex-
cuses as that given that licenses are
always issued in wet" districts bear
no weight with thoughtful and deter
mined men.
If a blunder was made in issuing
those licenses would it not be the more
honorable and manly way to admit the
error and revoke them?
One thing is certain: Los Angeles peo-
pie will insist upon the aqueduct line
being free from the saloon evil. They
have brooked delay for. a day or an
hour, but the time has arrived for
action. The only way to avoid the
storm of wrath of an outraged people
is to revoke those licenses and to do it

How to Keep the Kitchen Cool and Com
Portable in Mid Summer.

INV W hVUp thu hltVHCH NUUi anu OUlh'
Portable in Midsummer.
Many a housewife is wondering how
she will pass through the coming sum-
mer months with the stove she we'll
knows will make the kitchen unbeara-
ably hot-to say nothing of the dirt,
dust and ashes that will add to the dis
comfort.
There is way out of it ala way
that not only lessons the work and
keeps the kitchen cool, but that also
reduces fuel expenses. This convent
ence, comfort and economy is all effect
ed by the New Perfection Wick Blue
Flame Oil Cook Stove, an oil stove so
superior to other makes that it is fast
replacing the coal and wood range, the
old-fashioned oil stove, and in many
cases the gas stove.
Anyone who has had to wait ten or
fifteen minutes for the fire to get start
ed will appreciate the New Perfection,
which gives strong working fame at
moment of lighting. "Blue Flame"
means the hottest and cleanest flame
produced by any stove. The fame is
always under immediate control and
can be raised or lowered instantly.
The convenience of this will be under
stood when it Is considered that while
the flame Of one burner is boiling the
kettle or roasting large joint, that of
another can be reduced to simmering
point-in this way enabling the house
wife to cook a variety of dishes at one
time.
Then the comfort of it, While the
flame of the New Perfection is intense
ly hot, yet the heat is not thrown of
into the kitchen because it is concen-
trated by blue enameled chimneys,
On washing and ironing days the
comfort and convenience of the New
Perfection will be greatly appreciated.
1t gives best results in the least time,
and does away with all coal and wood
carrying and the many other disagree
able jobs that have to be done with 9th
or stoves. The New Perfection is made
in three sizes, with one, two and three
burners, and is warranted to give full
satisfaction.
Another home comfort is the Rayo
Lamp which produces light of unusual
brightness, yet soft and mellow-a
light that will not hurt the eyes. The
Royo Lamp can be used in any room,
whether library, dining-room, parlor
or bedroom. 1t is highly ornamental,
being made of brass throughout and
beautifully nickeled. Every lamp is
warranted and makes valuable and
handsome addition to any home,
The New Perfection Wick Blue
Flame Oil Cook Stove and the Rayo
Lamp are tive real essentials to home
comfort. Their easy operation, abso-
lutte safety and handsome appearance
commend them wherever stoves and
lamps are used.

Shoop, Racine, Wis. Troubles of the
stomach, heart and kidneys are merely
symptoms of deeper ailment. Don't
make the common error of treating
symptoms only. Symptom treatment
is treating the result of your ailment
and not the cause. Weak stomach
nerves - the inside nerves means
stomach weakness always. And the
heart, the kidneys as we'll, have their
controlling or inside nerves. Weaken
these nerves and you invariably have
weak vital organs. Here is where DR.,
