SClATIC TORTURE
A Locomotive Engineer Tells How
He Was Cured by DR.. Williams
Pink Pills.

Pain that seems almost unbearable
is a characteristic of sciatic rheuma-
tism. In some cases the pain is
knife.like, sharp or shooting; in 9TH
ers it is dull and aching. Sciatica
is stubborn in resisting treatment and
the patient frequently suffers for
years. This was the case with Mr..
Herbert e, Spaulding, a locomotive
engineer on the Cincinnati, New Or
leans G Texas Pacific Railway, whose
home is at Longview, Texas.

years ago." he says, II fell off and
hurt my knee and spine and have
always considered this to be the cause
of my illness. The sciatica took hold
of me from my heel to the back Of

and back were twisted out of shape.

THE ARTISTIC WALL.
One of Solid Color VIII Always Give
Best Effect.

The dearest, daintiest, most artistic
wall is solid colored wall. 1t fur
nishes a perfect background for all
kinds of pictures, 1t throws them out
in their correct proportions, and does
not detract from their artistic value
The solid colored wall Is also much
better as background for furniture,
and harmonizes much more artistical-
ly with carpets and rugs than any
other method of wall treatment. The
less breaking up of color on a wall
the more artistic it Is.
The most successful form of the
solid colored wall is an alabastined
wall. There is as much difference be-
tween tinted walls, as there is be-
tween shoddy and all-wool gowns. The
shoddy gown holds its color for few
days, while the all-wool keeps it's color
to the very last thread, so also in solid
colored walls, there are shoddy walls
and permanently colored walls which
retain their color down to the very
last particle. The ideal wall coating
never rubs off, never flakes nor chips
off and is always ready for fresh
coat. If there is wallpaper on the
wall, soak it off with warm water,
then go over the plaster after you
have removed the paper with warm
water to remove every trace of paste
Have the wall thoroughly clean for a
clean wall cannot be built on an un-
clean foundation. If there are any
particles of foreign matter adhering
to the wall scrape them off with a
putty knife. Then If there are any
discolorations on the wall, size it with
a material made from cheap varnish,
thinned down with benzine and japan
added for drier, then cover your
wall with your tinting material.
Be sure your man uses tinting ma
terial mixed with cold water. If he
comes to you and asks for warm wa
ter, you can make up your mind that
there is glue in the material which he
proposes to put on your wall, and you
can be certain that you are going to
have shoddy wall, for glue means
shoddy. Glue means that it will hold
its color long enough for the man to
collect his bill and not much longer.
Insist on your tinting material being
mixed with clear, cold water. Be sure
that your wall is made from pure ma
terials, then you will have a perma-
nent, artistic, sanitary wall. 4 wall
that will be thing of beauty and a
joy forever"

FOOLED THE PREACHER.
A Doctors Brother Thought Postum
Was Coffee.

A wise doctor found out coffee was
hurting him, so he quit drinking it.
He was so busy with his practice,
however, that his wife had to write
how he fooled his brother, a clergy
man, one day at dinner. She says:
doctor found coffee was injuring
him and decided to give Postum q
trial, and we have used it now for
four years. with continued benefit In
fact, he is now free from the long
train of ills that follow coffee drink
ing.
ITO show how successful we are
in making Postum properly l will re-
late an incident. At dinner we
gave, Doctor suggested we serve
Postum instead of ordinary coffee.
Doctors brother, Clergyman, sup
posed it was old fashioned coffee and
remarked, as he called for his Sec
ond cup: If you do preach against
coffee, see you haven't forgotten how
to make it,"
This goes to show that well-made--
fully boiled-Postum has much the
flavor and richness of good coffee al
though 1t has an individuality all its
own. A ten days trial will prove that
1t has none of the poisonous effect of
ordinary coffee. but will correct the
troubles caused by coffee. There's a
reason" Name furnished by Postum

Physiological Mystery.

According to some curious investi-
cations conducted by English scien-
lists, eldest sons tend to be criminals
and youngest sons paupers. A great
many thousand school children and
many family histories have been ex-
amined to yield these results. First
born children were found to be, as a
rule, taller and heavier, with greater
ability and endurance than the others.
This is in accordance with the popular
feeling in many countries that the
Oldest child is superior to the others
and deserving of special privileges.

among men of genius an undue pro-

Stood the Test.

Allcock's Plasters have successfully
stood the test of sixty years use by
the public; their virtues have never
been equaled by the unscrupulous i'm

their reputation by making plasters
with holes in them, and claiming them
to be 'just as good as Allcock's."
Allcock's plasters stand to-day In

authorities, but by millions of grateful
patients who have proved their eff
cacy as household remedy.

Why should this be the case ?

Because they have neglected them
selves, as every one of these patients
in the hospital beds had plenty of
warning in those dragging sensations,
pains at left or right of abdomen,
backaches, nervous exhaustion, in
fammation, liberation, displace-
ments. and other organic weaknesses.
All of these symptoms are indica-
tions of an unhealthy condition of the
female system and if not needed the
penalty has to be paid by a dangerous
operation. When these symptoms
manifest themselves, do not drag
along until you are obliged to go to
the hospital and submit to an opera
tion-but remember that Lydia L.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made
from native roots and herbs, has saved
hundreds of women from surgical
operations.
Lydia e. Pinlham's Vegetable
Compound, has cured more cases of
feminine ills than any other one
remedy. Such letters as thefollowing

LIGHT LUNCHEONS FOR HOT
DAYS.

Summertime is the season when
light refreshments of some kind are
needed almost every day for little trips
and outings-to entertain casual guests
and for luncheon on days too warm for
heavy foods.
There are many summertime biscuit
and waters baked by the National Bis
cult company and packed in packages
that keep out all dampness and dust of
travel and absolutely preserve the orig
inal oven freshness of the contents.
Among the most popular of these dain-
ties are Social Tea Biscuit. They are
SO appropriate for many different occa-
sions that a few packages in the house
prepares you to serve a light refresh
ment without a moments notice.
Social Tea Biscuits are a real food,
but so light and unusual that they
tempt the appetite and make welcome
accompaniment to luncheon, dessert
or dinner-a social cup of tea or cool
ing beverage.
Always serve Social Tea Biscuit from
the original package. because then you
are sure that no dust or dampness has
reached them and that you will enjoy
a.. their original freshness of flavor.

Down the coast, 343 Knots and the
world-famed bay of Naples greeted us.
The feature of our anchoring here
was our troublesome time in doing
SO. My friends have asked me about
it, as the cables reported an accident
at this point. In short. we arrived
at p. M, February 10th and it was

breeze in a congested harbor combin-

in her anchor chain and the chain of
our anchor had to be severed and
the anchor lost for the time. In the
maneuvering, our ship struck in

the steamship ''Atalanta." There was
no great danger to life but there was

BRANCH BANKS ARE
DECL AIRED ILLEGAL
Atty General Bingham Gives
Such an Opinion.
BILLHEIMER FINDS SCHEME

Pursuant to a written opinion from
Attorney General James Bingham to
the effect that they have no legal right
to operate branch banks. Auditor Of
State John G.. Billheimer has demand
ed of number of state and private
banks throughout Indiana that they
cease operating their branch banks.
In most instances the banks have
complied. From others the auditor is
awaiting reply to his order. One
bank, the State Bank of Valparaiso,
will contest the auditors right to
such action.
Auditor Billheimer had known for
some time that branch banks were be-
ing operated and the question arose in
his mind as to whether the banks had
a right to do So He reached the con-
clusion that there was no warrant of
law for their existence and that it
would be possible for such banks to
conduct all of their business in the
branch banks and thus escape state
supervision. In the case of failure of
any one of the branch banks all would
probably become insolvent.
The auditor, therefore, submitted
three questions to the attorney gen
era1 for an opinion, desiring to know
whether a state or private bank could
legally be established, whether bank
could do business at a place not
named in it's articles Of incorporation,
and whether the auditor had the au-
thority to order their discontinuance
or examine and supervise them.
Attorney General Bingham says that
the auditor can order their discontin
uance or examine or supervise them
under the law OF 1855 and 1878 and
the private banking acts of 1905 and
1907. The 1907 law, however, he says, |
does not become effective until Deem
