First Aid Valise.

Are you thinking of taking a num-
Der of Youngsters on vacation. OF
are you off for motor trip?
If you are YOU need first aid valise.
This is the latest production Of those
purveyors who are always inventing
something useful for the motorist. 1t
is a small but, very useful receptacle of
remedies for bruises. cuts and other
ills that may, alas, befall the traveller
en- automobile.
Rolls Of lint, TASKS Of cooling and
healing lotions. scissors. small bot
tie of brandy and other items Of first
aid utility are contained in a little
leather box. the color Of which must
be determined by the lining of the
car. Of course it may serve on any
sort of a jaunt.

AIDS TO BEAUTY.

Small white spots which often ap-
pear on the nails are caused from
bruising.
Thin arms should be washed twice a
a day with a fine lather of soap, rinsed
well. dried thoroughly and then rub
bed vigorously. This treatment will
bring the pores into action and induce
q healthy condition Of the skin.
1t is nonsense to think that soap and
water and q complexion brush will
cause a growth Of hair on the face.
Superfuous hair is more likely to grow
on q dust laden. oily skin. Soap. hot
water and q complexion brush used
every night are necessary to get the
face clean. 4 good cream will counter
act the drying effects of the soap.

BEDS AND BEDMAKlNG.
Many False Notions on This Important
Subject Exploded.

Many False Notions on This Important
Subject Exploded.
Many people used to have. an i'm
preston that to sleep on soft bed
had a spice Of wickedness in it and
that the harder the mattress the great
er the virtue Of the sleeper.
This arose in great part from the
fact that feather beds were generally
condemned as unhealthy, and the ig-
norant at once seized the idea that
they were unhealthy because soft,
whereas they are unhealthy because
they do not permit Of proper ventila-
ton.
More and more we learn that the
foundation of health lies in an abun-
dant supply of fresh air and that the
root Of many a disease is in the want
of it. In health many Of us spend a
third of our time actually in bed and
in sickness much more. so it is of the
greatest Importance that the bed and
everything connected with 1t should
be thoroughly ventilated.
It goes without saying that the bed
room must itself be airy and the fresh
air have free access to it.
From the point Of view of health it
is a matter of Indifference whether the
bedstead be of wood or Of iron. but
the most comfortable and at the same
time healthy are those fitted with
chain spring mattresses. These mat
tresses may be bought separately and
fitted to any bedstead.

ton Readers.

ton Readers.
A good game for company of fc-
ton readers is called Identification. 1t
is easily arranged and never fails to
"take" with intelligent people.
When the amusement is about to be-
gin the hostess distributes among her
guests large cards or strips Of card
board on which are the names Of fifty
characters, male and female, extracted
from standard or popular novels, who
must be identified.
This is done by writing opposite the
name Of the character the title of the
novel in which it figures. Each player
may have a separate list or one list
may be given to each pair Of partners
who work together to complete it.
In preparing a set of characters
avoid selecting those which fill title
roles or who are too familiar to the
reader.
A good beginning for such list
would be:
Babbie (''The Little Minister').
Dinah Morris C"Adam Bede').
,Nydia c'The Last Days of Pompeii').
Kate Hardcastle C'She Stoops to

DISTRESS, AFTER EATING
Do You Ever Feel az Though You
Had Swallowed A Brick,
Instead Of a Mea12

That heavy, bloated, stuffed-up,
lead-like feeling, which you often
experience after eating a meal, is
positive proof that something is
wrong with your digestive organs.
They are becoming weak and lag
ged out. There is a lack of gastric
and otherdigestive juices. The
food is no longer properly digested
and it forms a heavy load on your
stomach, so that nearly every meal
causes you misery and distress.
IL You are in this condition. it
means that you have dyspepsia III
some form and may have had 1T
Nor some slime. though you didn't
realize it.
Now is the time to check 1t,
for if YOU don't it will surely
develop into worse forms OF dys-
pepsia and other stomach troubles
which may have serious results.
But that is not all. The stomach
is The hub of the body and an
injury to it is an injury to all.
A. weak stomach causes the whole
body to suffer. The action of the
heart, liver and kidneys becomes
sluggish. The brain becomes mac
tive. The nerves become unstrung.
The blood loses its vitality.
The only safe, sure, scientific
method of restoring your stomach
TO its healthy, normal state, is
to use Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets,
which will act as substitute in
dieesting your food, thus giving
your stomach q much needed rest
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have
stood the fest FOR years. Thon-
sands have used them and been
cured. Physicians all over the Unit
ed States recommend them. They
are not secret remedy. They
contain fruit and vegetable essences
