Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory If the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness. it is usually neces-
sary to use SO much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trou-
BILE can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as 1t can be applied
much more thinly because of Its great
err strength than other makes.

Senator Morgan a Model.

Senator John T.. Morgan, of Ala

articles which involve a great deal of

accept pay for them. In the course
of his career many railroad passes
have been offered him. but he never
accepted any either for himself or any
member of his family. Though over
so years old, he thinks nothing OF
working half the night. The sena.
tor never haunts the departments
looking for jobs for constituents. OF
moderate means when he entered the
senate, he is now a poor man. having
little or nothing but his salary.

The Medicine That Makes Rich. Red
Blood and Performs Wonders as
Tonic for the Nerves.
Why are nervous people invariably
pale people?
The answer to that question explains
why n remedy that acts on the blood
can cure nervous troubles.
1t explains why DIR. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People are also for nervous
people.
1t is because of the intimate relation
between the red corpuscles in the blood
and the health of the nerves. The
nervous system receives its nourishment
through the blood. Let the blood be-
come thin, weak and colorless and the
nerves are starved-the victim is started
on the road that leads to nervous wreck.
Nervous people are pale people-but the
pallor comes first. Enrich the blood
and the nerves are stimulated and toned
up to do their part Of the work of the
body, DR.. Williams Pink Pills make
red blood and transform nervous, irrit-
able, ailing people into strong, energetic,
forceful men and women.

set in and affected the side Of my face.
The pains in my forehead were excru-
ciating and my heart panied me so that
my doctor feared neuralgia Of the heart.
I tried several different kinds Of treat
meat but they did me no good.

Bees Died from Overwork.

The beeman, as he gently removed
tawny cluster of bees from his
beard said:
above all things, never set a bee
hive near an arc light If you do.
your bees will die of overwork within
week.
IAN arc light emitting a powerful
illumination was put up last spring
near my beehives. The night it was
put up the bees, mistaking it's light for
daylight, worked like beavers, though
dead tired.
when the dawn came and the light
was extinguished the bees, quite worn
out, turned in; but 10, in a few min
utes the sun was shining, and out the
poor, bedraggled little creatures hur-
ried again, for no bee will consent to
pass the daylight hours in idleness.
They got through the day somehow
and at dusk, after SO hours of unneces-
ing toll, they once more turned in.
Alas, the arc light began to hiss and
glow again, and the poor bees, worn
to shadows, bent. pallid, staggered
forth for another round of labor.
They were all dead by the end of
the week-victims of overwork. every
mothers son of them."-N. o. Times.
