MUSIC STUDENTS
sh0uld Have stsady Nerves.

The nervous system Of the musician
is often very sensitive and any habit
like coffee drinking may so upset the
nerves as to make regular and neces-
sary daily practise next to impossible.
II practise from seven to eight hours
day and study Harmony two hours"
writes a Mich. music student. Last
September l was SO nervous l could
only practise few minutes at a time,
and mother said would have to drop
my music for year.
This was terribly discouraging as
I couldn't bear the thought OF losing
a whole year Of study Becoming con
vinced that my nervousness was
caused largely by coffee, and seeing
Postum so highly spoken OF. l de.
cided would test it for while.
Mother followed the directions
carefully and / thought had never
tasted such a delicious drink. We
drank Postum every morning instead
or coffee, and by November l felt more
ike myselr than Tor years, and was
ready to resume my music.
Il now practise as usual, do my
studying and when my days work is
finished am not any more nervous
than when ! began
Il cannot too highly recommend
Postum to musicians who practise half
a day. My father is a physician and
recommends Postum to his patients.
Words cannot express my appreciation
for this most valuable health bever.

superiority over all others" There's

A MusloIan. Too.

She is not really member OF the
truly smart set, but she likes to i'm
agine herself such, and she poses as
the encourager of genius through the
expedient Of spreading a free lunch
snare for the musical enthusiasts on
Sunday evenings. The landlord was
unwilling to renew her lease after Oc-
tober l, and she and her faithful hub
by sought new quarters. After long
search they at last found a place
where the ren, was not too much In
excess Of the sum they had figured
upon, and the accommodations were
not too far behind their aspirations,
and they came to the matter of the
lease. Mindful of his interview with
the last landlord hubby drew the agent
aside.
4 want to tell YOU he began, pomp-
ously, that my wife is a genius--a
musical genius-and that from time
to time we shall have little-er-mu

no objection made to these little af-
fairs?"

r. eponse. I'm musical myself"

joinder

A most delicious cream candy is
made by mixing one cup brown sugar
one-half cup water, one pinch Of cream
of tartar then placing the mixture
on a moderate fire to boil until it
makes a soft ball when dropped in
cold water. Do not stir the mixture
when the sugar is once dissolved
When done, pour on cold platter and
place the platter in cold water; do
not scrape the pan. When the plate
is cool enough to allow the hand to
hold it, it should be removed from the
water and beaten with silver knife
or wooden spoon. When creamy and
dry it should be taken into the hands
and kneaded until smooth; then it
should be nodded into shapes. Nuts,
dates or figs may be used by being
kneaded in if desired.

EYEsleHr WAS IN DANGER
From Terrible Eczema--Baby's Head
Mass Of itching Rash and Sores
Disease Cured by cuticura.

"Our little girl was two months old
when she got a rash on her face and
within five days her face and head
were all one sore. We used different
remedies but 1t got worse instead OF
better and we thought she would turn
blind and that her ears would fall off.
She suffered terribly, and would
scratch until the blood came. This
went on until she was five months old,
then had her urder our family doc
tors care, but she continued to grow
worse. He said 1t was eczema. When
she was seven months old | started
to use the Cuticura Remedies and in
two months our baby was a different
girl. You could not see a sign OF a
sore and she was as fair as new
born baby. She has not had sign Of
the eczema since. Mrs. H. F. Budke,

HOW TO KNOW PURE PAINT.
a Way IN Which II May BE Identified
Before Using.

After a building has heen painted
iJng enough for a weather test, it is
easy to tell If the paint used was made
OF pure White Lead or not. But such
helated knowledge comes like locking
the barn after the colt is stolen.
What one wants is a test that will
tell the quality Of the paint before it
and the labor Of putting It on are
paid for.
Nature has provided way in which
genuine White Lead may be positive
~ distinguished from adulterated or
fake White Lead before you spend a
cent on your painting
Pure White Lead is made from me-
taiIic lead, and. under intense heat,
such as is produced by blow-pipe.
pure White Lead willresolveitself back
into metallic lead. H. however, it Is
not genuine White Lead, or il 1t CON
tains the slightest trace Of adultera-
tion. the change will not take place.
Therefore the ''blow-pipe" test is an
absolute and final one.
The National Lead Company are
urging everyone interested in painting
70 make this test Of paint before using
Il. and they guarantee that the pure
White Lead sold under their dutch

To Clean Walls.

Burlaped or papered walls may be
brushed with a new broom covered
with hood of cheesecloth which
must be removed and shaken when
dusty. Bread crumbs and a pencil
eraser will remove many ugly marks
from wall paper Magnesla often re-
moves grease marks. A weak solu
ton of borax and water will remove
the greasy black stains that mar deli
cate wood or paints. Use kerosene in
the water when wiping vanished
wood work. No difference how good
a furniture polish you use. always rub
off every particle of grease with dry
cloths, or it will accumulate dust and
the dust is more difficult to remove
than the grease.
