Kaiser Careful of Details.

A Hamburg paper tells this story
about the kaiser's attention to detail:
Shortly after his arrival at Swine
munde the kaiser was standing on the
bridge of the Hohenzollern, when he
noticed that the sentry, a member of
the Stettiner Royal Grenadiers, on
duty near the customs officer, wore
a topcoat, but had his trousers over
his boots. The kaiser shouted to the
lieutenant Of the guard: Lieutenant,
when topcoats are worn the trousers
must be worn inside the boots The
officer, an extremely youthful fellow.
became confused and did not, know
what to say, and the emperor called
In louder tones: Lieutenant, / again
call your attention to the regulation
boots must be worn over the trou'
sers by men who wear ~topcoats.' The
command then few from post to post
and pedestrians wondered why the
soldiers suddenly became busy with
their boots.

The American woman fortunately
is Independent enough to choose her
costumes for constant G with a
thought for comfort, and any fashion
which does not so contribute to her
happiness has small chance of sue
cess. By costumes for constant wear,
day gowns and walking and carriage
costume are referred to. Evening
gowns are a different matter, for ap-
pearance rather than comfort is
sought in such robes, and what is
comfort compared with a striking
toilette that need be endured for a
few hours only at a time. There will,
of course, be many short coats, yer
Etons, shown in winter costumes, and
the pony cut, so effective On certain
figures in the coat, not the ~so-called
jacket model, will be see in winter
walking and carriage costumes. but
the long coats will be the favored
model. Last winter a few French
models showed long coats and this
winter the fashion will be general. At

Selfish, HELPLESS Women.

The helpless woman Is the most
prominently selfish of all women
The worst of it is that it is a very
hard ~selfishness to fight against. az
she is usually sweet-tempered in her
tyranny. In her home life before mar.
riage she is always the one who gets
up last in the morning and shirks
work all day long.
Today. however, men are beginning
to realize that the s%elf-reliant girl is
not necessarily unfeminine, and that
she makes a better friend or wife
than the girl who is sweet and help
less. The helpless woman is a draw
back to her husband from the start
to finish. The helpless girl is daily
growing more and more a back num-
Der, and sometime in the near future
when man comes quite to his proper
senses, she will be an utterly un-

TWO SIDES OF THE STORY.
Told by Parkave to Ashstreet and by
d.. Mrs. Parkava to Mrs. Ashstreet.

When Mr. Parkave reads this he
will appreciate the fact hat there are
sometimes two sides to a story. As
he was coming downtown on the car
his friend. Mr. Ashstreet, remarked:
wasn't II a scorcher yesterdays"
That's the truth, and l know 1t, all
right" replied Mr. Parkave. Fell
asleep on the lounge after dinner,
and-don't laugh-dreamed of a cool
ing thunderstorm, with rain and hail
dashing against the house. Woke
up and found my collar wilted, the
perspiration streaming down my face
and my underclothes as moist as IL
| had been out on the golf links with
| the mercury at 10 in the sun. Facth
Had to take n shower bath and change
my clothing"
The other side of the story was
told by Mrs Parkave two hours later
shopping. On the car she met Mrs
Ashstreet, and, of course, the hot
weather was referred to.
Yes. and | played such a mean
trick on my man that | am almost
ashamed to tell it," said Mrs Parkave.

We'll, you know, as | have often
told you, Jack shores terribly. Yes
terday after dinner he went to sleep
or the lounge and was soon snoring
loud enough to alarm the neighbor-
hood. The noise grated on my nerves.
and in selfdefence, as l said to my
self, l went to the music room and
banged away on the piano till | per.
spired. And what do you think I
played?
You remember that descriptive
storm piece l used to play when |

Well, | literally made the piano crash
with thunder. and l had hailstones
tering noisily against the windows
and shingles. Perhaps l %improvised
a little and got in more thunder than
the composers score called for, but
l was determined to drown Jacks
snores, and to make the storm more
realistic, I switched the lights on and
off a few times. Finally. l heard Jack
get up from the lounge and humble
something about the heat.
HAS it been raining?' he asked
as ] came into the room.
"No," / replied.

Pe.ru.na For Kidney Trouble.
Mrs. Geo. II. Simser, Grant, Ontario,
Cam, writes:
81 had not been we'll for about four
years. I had kidney trouble, and, In
fact, felt badly nearly all the time.
"This summer i got so very bad I
thought I would try Peruna, SO I wrote
to you and began at once to take Peruna
and Manalin.
"I took only two bottles Of Peruna
and one of Manalin, and now / feel
better than I have for some time.
II feel that Peruna and Manalin cured
me and made n different woman of me
altogether. / bless the day l picked up
the little book and read o fyour Peruna."
It's the business of The kidneys to
ren0v from the blood all poisonous
materials. They must be active all the
time, else the system suffers. They are
times when they need a little assistance.
Peruna is exactly the sort of a rem
edy. 1t has saved many people from
disaster by rendering the kidneys ser,

PUTS THE N IN.
The Kind Of Food Used by Athletes.

A former college athlete, one Of the
long distance runners, began to lose
his power Of endurance. His expert

while / was in training on the
track athletic team, my daily logs be-
came a task, until after. I was put on
Grape-Nuts food for two meals a day.
After using the Food for two weeks I
felt like a new man. My digestion vas
perfect, nerves steady and I was full
of energy.
II trained for the mile and the half
mile runs Chose events which require
SO much endurance) and then the long
daily joys which before had been
such a task. were clipped on with
ease. I won both events.
"The Grape-Nuts food put me In per-

Not only was my physical condition
made perfect, and my weight IN
creased, but my mind was made clear
and vigorous so that i could get out

University men use Grape-Nuts for

think my testimony will not be amiss
and may perhaps help some n to

There's a reason for the effect OF
Grape-Nuts food on the human body
and brain. The certain elements In
wheat and barley are selected with
special reference to their power for re-
building the brain and nerve centres.
The product is then carefully and
scientifically prepared so as to make
It easy Of digestion. The physical and
mental results are 30 apparent after
two or three weeks use as to produce

Of Warts.

Recent experiments show that the
popular belief that warts are COM
municable is warranted" says a
writer. ":Inoculation of healthy tissue
with blood obtained from a wart will
cause the growth of a similar ex-
crescence. 1t is thought that these
growths contain an ultramicroscopic
germ to which is due the transmission
from one person to another. At all
events, persons who have warts should
take measures to have them removed
at once"

The education of the people is going forward every day, SO that they

For instance, see what has been done in eliminating typhoid, which,
with tuberculosis, carries off more people than any other disease. Vienna,
having a seperate system of water supply for drinking purposes, has
brought the typhoid death rate down to one in 100000. Vienna gets her
drinking water direct from the Alpine SHOWS.
While the education of the people, particularly the mothers, is to be
the principal factor in bringing more favorable conditions for the health
of the people, the fight for legislation should be continued.
