If WOMEN ONLY KNEW
What a Heap of Happiness it
Would Bring to Hopkins
vile Homes.

Hard to do homework with an
aching back.
Brings you hours of misery at
leisure or at work
If women only knew the cause
that Backache pains come from sick
kidneys. 'Twould save much need
less woe. Doan's Kidney Pills cure
sick Kidneys. Hopkinsville people
endorse this:
Miss L. A. Hester, 826 North Main
Street, Hopkinsville, KY, says: Il
honestly believe that there is little
need of any one suffering the tor
ture of backache when such an eff
fective remedy as Doan's Kidney
Pills can be procured at l.. A. John
sons drug store. The prompt and
thorough relief which followed
their use in my case has given me
abiding faith in their merits. In the
summer of 1903 / was suffering
greatly from soreness and lameness
across the small of my back and
other difficulties arising from a
weakness of the kidneys. Two box
es of Doan's Kidney Pills was all l
required to free me from the dis
tressing pain in my back and re-
store my kidneys to a good healthy
condition. recommended Doan's
Kidney Pills at that time and during
the four years which have elapsed
l still hold the same good opinion of
the remedy.

How to Clean Brass

First clean the brass in the ordinary
way either with one Of the ready-made
polishes, or with paraffin and finely
powdered bathbrick mixed to a rather
soft consistency. Polish with dry. fine
ly powdered bathbrick, then rub
quickly over with little petrol. and
afterward polish with dry whitening
and leather, using a brush for any
parts into which the leather will not
go.
Be sure that all stains are removed
before you begin polishing. Stains of
long standing, that bought ready-made
polishes will not move, will always
yield to a vigorous treatment with
bathbrick and paraffin; in fact, this.
applied with a rather stiff nailbrush,
is what dealers use to clean old brass
that has become absolutely black
through lying by.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Add alum to the paste used in scrap
books and it will keep the moths out
of them.
Rub the backs of old paintings with
oil of cedar to protect them from in
jury by insects
Add a pinch of soda in water in
which fresh-cut flowers are put and
they will keep longer.
Do not stretch table linen, but iron
while damp, and press until quite dry;
otherwise it will be too limp.
There is no better filling for needle
and pin cushions than sleeps wool, as
its oily qualities prevent the needles
from rusting.
After the carpet is tackled down, if
it is literally sprinkled with salt and
swept with clean broom the colors
will be frightened wonderfully.
Cut stale bread into the thinnest
possible slices and brown it in the
oven. Then crush it with a rolling
pin, and you will have bread crumbs
for browning outlets, friend oysters
and the like.

NEW SHADE Of RED.
Pronounced Color Popular With FASH
ions DeVotees.

Dragons blood is the new shade
of red which has been brought into
prominence, and although the name
suggests heathenism, colorists seem
to have dipped deep into the heart OF
the American Beauty rose for their
newest inspiration. Not that fashion
able women have tired of the browns
and greens, for these are in evidence
everywhere, and scarcely any two
shades alike, but Paris likes novelty
and the eouturieres must supply it in
color when there is a lull in the num-
Der of designs or new decorative
schemes.
Browns of various shades come next
to blues, but few very dark shades
will be worn. Golden browns and rus
set shades are the deepest and for
summer wear the tans and ecrus, as
always, will be much seen.
The coming shade Of green will be
that rich, pure tone called forest
green. 1t lacks the blue of the emer-
aid tones and the yellow of the bronze
shades. 1t is an especially good shade
with which to place other colors with
