Foundation of Manners.

If parents have one set of manners
for the home and another set for the
outside world, the children will copy
those they see in the home.
There must be no selfshness at
home If one does not want the boy or
girl to grow up selfish. The foundation
of the best manners is good heart,
of course, and kindly feeling toward
every one. Without this they are but
artificial. and will not stand the test
of the buffeting of the world and all
its opposing forces.

FOR THE SUMMER EVENING.
Wraps in White and Pale Colored
Tussore Are Liked.

Apropos of coats for summer use
that answer for evening wear those
made of white and pale-colored khaki
tussore are favorites. They are moth
ing more or less than great nantes
that sweep in circular form about the
figure and have collarless neck. en-
placement simply braided or embroid-
cred, and are unlined. Besides these
cool and enveloping silk wraps those
of double mousseline de sole in bis
cult and mastic shades as well as
all white, are fascinating. Large
loose sleeves are set in with a trim
ming of guipure lace to match, for
edge finish and also for the neck,
which is little low. AS the lace is
continued in a pretty way from the
front to the back it ends in the back
in a graceful hood. Long lace scarf
effects hold the two fronts in place.
Sometimes these vaporous wraps have
an inset fall of gossamer silk to match
laid between the outer and inner
to give little more body
while others are ordering a fall of
Brussels net in place of the silk
which then retains the light cloud
like appearance more effectively, and
sufiices to give little more warmth.

QUICK REMEDIES FOR cRAMp.
Not Hard to Get Relief From This
Painful Affliction.


Do your little growing folks wake
up in the night with cramp in their
toes or legs? If so. tell them to slide
down to the foot of the bed and press
their toes hard against the footboard.
This seldom fails to bring relief. Even
the tiniest tot can do this for herself
when she wakes up in alarm at the
big pain in her leg.
Should this fail, and sometimes
when the cramp is up by the knee, it
is not efficient, tell the sufferer to
press the sole of her cramped foot
against the instep of the other. Press

Arguments on food are interesting.
Many persons adopt vegetarian diet
on the ground that they do not like to
feel that life has been taken to feed
them. nor do they fancy the thought
of eating dead meat
On the other hand too great con.
sumption of partly cooked, starchy
oats and wheat or white bread pastry,
etc, produces serious bowel troubles,
because the bowel digestive organs
(where starch is digested), are over
taxed and the food ferments, produc-
ing gas. and microbes generate in the
decayed food frequently bringing on
peritonitis and appendicitis.
Starchy food is absolutely essential
to the human body. It's best form is
shown in the food "Grape-Nuts," where
the starch is changed into a form OF
sugar during the process of it's manu-
factuTe. In this way, the required
food IS presented to the system in a
pre-digested form and is Immediately
made into blood and tissue, without
taxing the digestive organs.
A remarkable result in nourishment
is obtained; the person using Grape
Nuts gains quickly in physical and
mental strength. Why in mental?
Because the food contains delicate
particles of Phosphate of Potash oh

London, Jan. 2.There has been
washed up on the beach at Castle
rock in the North Of Ireland bottle
containing a message from several
members of the crew of the steamship
Huronian, which disappeared in the
spring of 1902, to the effect that she
was sinking fast The message how
ever, gives no location. This is the
second time the Huronian has been
heard from since she sailed from
Glasgow on February IL, 1902, for
st. John, N. s.
The Huronian belonged to the Allan
line. She was first reported overdue
early In March, 1902, and when moth
ing had been heard from her by the
first OF April all hopes were given up.
In spite Of this, however, the British
admiralty ordered the cruisers
Thames and Bellonia to search for
her. The search was kept up until
well into May but no trace of the
Huronian was found.
