on Kidney diseases, who makes the
statement in a New York daily news

case of Kidney trouble IL taken be-
fore the stage of Brights disease. He
states that such symptoms as lame

overcome. Here is the recipe; try It,:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;

A well-known physician is authority

WHEN MILESToNES CHEER.
They Always GLADDEN. the Heart OF
the Pedestrian.

In walking trip a milestone along
the way is the most companionable
fellow in the world; your spirits rise
as you near him as though you were
about to greet a human friend, and
they keep almost consistently on his
high level till his brother a mile. dis.
tant advances to meet you.
And when you overlook one of this
friendly company because of an en-.
croaching bank or screening boughs,
says the Travel Magazine, his neigh
Dor further on comes to you doubly
welcome. At the latter end of this
passage in the journey your spirits
flag trifle as though oppressed by
sense of desertion. You may even
scowl at the overhanging bank which
is more than party to this conceal
ment.
Those worthy persons who attend to
the roads should see to it that every
milestone. within their province stands
out frankly from its leafy background.
Observance of this, however, would
rob the wayfarer of that leap of the
heart which is his when the stone
tells the story of two miles done rather
than one: For however much the land
Scape and the minute world at his feet
may claim the foptfarer's admiration
he is still keenly alive to the virtue
of decent distances covered in his

LITTLE HINTS AND HELPS FOR
ALL WoMANKIND.
The Careful Woman Rests Her Clothes,
Thereby Keeping Them Always
Fresh and Free from Shah
bness-Other Items.

The careful woman has taken to
resting her clothes.
Nothing induces shabbiness in coats
and gown more than the lines and
wrinkles which show they have been
worn and reworn.
Walking creases and sitting creases
make a garment old before it has
done its duty.
Men appreciate this fact better than
women. That is why a man can al
ways appear well dressed with a
small wardrobe, because every week
or so he makes a change of suits and
sends the one he has been wearing
to the tailor. and never by any chance
allows a wrinkle to become fixed in
his suit.
Not all women's frocks can 60 to a
tailor, but she can manage to change
her clothes often enough to give them
an entire rest. And it is real economy
TO do SO.
Here is a practical plan for clean
ing and pressing skirts: Brush them
first, then whisk off with a clean
brush dampened in ammonia and
warm water.
