'Catarrh.-

One thousand retail druggists

business aggregates over seventy
million dollars annual sales, have

know that it is not cure at all.

A REASON

The Rexall Remedies
deserve confidence.
As all these Remedies
are grouped under one
name. they must succeed
or fail together. There
must he no weak links
in this chain. One un-
worthy remedy would
mean disaster for the en-
tire plan. If you. for
example. purchased the
Rexall Cough Cure and
were not cured by il,
, how could we expect
you TO place any faith
thereafter in the Rexall
Dyspepsia Cure OF any
other member OF the
Rexall family?
You can understand,
therefore, why such anx-
ious care was given to
finding and choosing the
remedies to which the
name "Rexall" was
given. We have ad.
mitted none to this cir
Gle until our committee
of experts had been con-
WINGED by investigation
and test that il was the
best remedy kHoscH to

POPULAR APPROVAL OF THEFT.
English Writer Sees Significance in
Glorification of Robbers.

The idea of private property has
never been fully accepted by the
masses OF the people, and never had
their cordial approval as an institu-
ton, says a writer in the London
News. The most popular songs and
ballads Of our nation in all ages, it
may be noted, have been those which
described alphabetically attacks on
private property, from the Robin Hood
cycle to the broadsheets in which
Turpin and Sheppard were made
heroes.
Even nowadays the literature that
really touches the people, the litera-
ture that the educated classes seldom
SO much as see exposed for sale, the
literature that is sold in the small
general" shop in the back street, and
costs fewer pennies than the novel we
know costs shillings. still very largely
deals with the romantic exploits Of
the robber. He is never a villain; he
is noble and generous to fault; but
he Is convinced OF the improperly Of
persons. having too much money.

BABY WASTED TO SKELETON

Face and Body--Tore at Flesh
Cured by Cuticura.

my little son, when about year
and half old began to have sores
come out on his face. They began to
come on his arms, then on other parts
of his body, and then one came on his
chest, worse than the others. At the
end of about year and half of suf-
fering he grew so bad l had to tie his
hands in cloths at night to keep him
from scratching the sores and tearing
the flesh. He got to be a mere skele-
ton and was hardly able to walk. l
sent to the drug store and got cake
of Cuticura Soap and box of Cuticura
Ointment, and at the end of about two
months the sores were all well. He
has never had any sores of any kind
since, and only for the Cuticura Rem
edies my precious child would have

To Store Winter Clothes.

II one has sufficient closet room, il
is better to store the winter clothes
away on hangers than to fold them In

proof cover should be made to envelor
them, hanger and all. Cut out large
bag of unbleached muslin and put

Then soak the bag in strong turpen

FOR THE LIVING ROOM
A Little Care in Decoration Brings
Good Results.


If the family sitting room must be
furnished with the discarded draw
ing-room furniture, much will be add.
ed to the attractiveness of the room
II cretonne in pretty flower effects is
bought and slip cover made for
each article of furniture.
An old haircloth set of chairs and
sofas was by this means converted
into a very charming living room set;
the slips completely Disgusting the
native ugliness of the chairs.
Cretonne of the same pattern was
used for window valances and hang
ings.
In the room mentioned the wall
paper and floor coverings were plain
in tone. When these are figured it Is
scarcely possible to introduce figured
furniture coverings and hangings.
The effect is too confusing. It will be
found possible, however, to dye old
carpets and Jugs the color of the tone
prevailing in the chintz. This is not
expensive.
An old handicapped table was
covered with this same plain tone,
bordered by the lowered cretonne.
1t was sunny room, with bay
window, the cushioned seat of which
was also done in the cretonne, and
the whole effect was delightful.

Diet for lnvalids.

That all solid foods must be of a
kind to be very easily digested is
what doctor means when he orders
the diet to be light. Everything rich
and heavy-such as beef, pork, goose,
salmon, etc.-should be carefully es.
chewed. and only short-grained flesh
such as that of chickens, game and
rabbit-allowed. No oily" fish-her
rings, mackerel, etc.-come into the
category of light and nourishing"
diet, nor any pink-feshed fish, such as
salmon. White fish is the only kind
permitted, and of these the whiting
the chicken of the sea"-is the best.
For very delicate people it is better
stewed in milk than fried.

Borax for Reaches.

In Kitchens where cockroaches are
found, bOrax is invaluable. Powdered
borax should BE sprinkled round the
fireplace and about the corners and
crannies infested by these troublesome
insects. When the borax is swept away
it should be replaced with more at
once, and If this remedy is steadily
persisted in the kitchen will be free
of the pests in surprisingly short
time. OF course, it is wise. even after
the house is clear, to occasionally use
