THE STRENUOUS LIFE
Pulls So Hard on the Stomach
Must Have HELD


The stress and strain of the siren
uous life in both city and country
makes stomach troubles. Five people
suffer today where one did ten years
ago with sick headache, dizziness,
flatulence, distress after eating,
specks before the eyes, bloating
nervousness, sleeplessness and the
many other symptoms of indigestion.
All who are suffering with stom-
ach troubles, and that means at
least two out of three in Waxahachie
and other towns, should use Miro
ma stomach tablets. Nothing else is
as safe, yet effective; nothing else
can be so thoroughly relied upon to
relieve all troubles from indigestion
as Mi-o-na.
So reliable is Mi-o-na that Hood
& Curtin, with every so cent box
they sell, give guarantee to refund
the money unless the remedy cures.

HE INSULTED HER.

Dear Miss Doom:
Last summer I met a young man
who was very attentive to me all dur
ing the summer. Just before 1 left for
he said something to me which
made me very indignant, and l told
him that l vas highly insulted and
that he need not call on me at my
city home, as 1 had previously accorded
him permission to do so. Subsequently
L received a letter from hin in which
he ~apologized, but I still felt too angry
to reply. l did not see or e anything
from him until last week, when we ac-
cidentally met at a reception out of
town, and to keep up appearances be-
fore our hostess We renewed our for
mer friendship. He again told me he
was very sorry for what he had said
and that / should not have taken the
matter as seriously as | did, as he says
that a man is not always responsible
for all he says. He apologized so
humbly and seemed to be so very sorry
that I could not help but forgive him,
especially as I think a great deal of
him, and I gave him permission to call
this coming Sunday. My parents are
in Europe at present. and my elder
sister, who is taking the place of
mother, said that she thought 1 must
have lost all my pride in permitting a
man to call on me that had once in
suited me. OF course, / am of age, and
oan have anyone calling on me that
choose. In this instance l feel as though
she is unreasonable, and 1 would like
your advice, as to whether L am doing
wrong in again taking up my friend
ship with him. He has always acted
like a perfect gentleman, except in this
one instance.
ONE WHO WISHES TO DO RIGHT.
1t seems to me that a man who de-
clares that a man is not always respon-
sible for what he says is not much Of
a man himself. I agree with your sis
ter in thinking that you are foolish to
renew this friendship, for if he forgot
himself once, when he was not re-
sponsible," he will be very liable to do 1t
again. in spite of what he says to the
contrary.

DUR CORNER
HOW PAPER WAS INVENTED.

TT UNDRBDS of years ago there
was no paper! We couldn't get
on without it in these days,
could we? We are always wanting it
to write upon, to wra things up in;
and, last, but not least, to print our
books and newspapers on.
1t vas a clever little Japanese gentle
man who first invented it. This little
man was a merchan., and as he had
ever so many parcels to send out from
his shop every week, he found the silk
In which he wrapped them a rather
expensive item.
He was always thinking and puzzling
his brains to try to invent something
that would be cheaper.
One day while he was walking in his
garden he came across a wasps' nest,
and he noticed how wonderfully it was
made-how the clever wasps had used
some kind of wood, softened it into a
thin paste with their jaws. and. after
carefully shaping it, had left it to dry.
'If wasps can do a thing like that, 3"
thought the little gentleman to himself,
"why can't 1? If l could get some kind
of wood, form it into a pulp by means
of river water, wouldn't the result be
something like the fabric of the wasps'
nest? I'll try, anyway, and see what |
can do. 1t would save myself and other
people quite d lot of money, if my ex-
pertinent succeeds"
The little Japanese gentleman tried
and succeeded, too, in putting into
practise the lesson that the wasps had
taught him.
So that's the way paper was invented
years and years ago out in far Japan.

A THOUSAND KISSES.

My Dear Miss Doom:
Will you please advise me IL 1t is
wrong for a young man writing a letter
to a lady friend to END with "A thou
sand kisses to you?" Should the lady,
for she is such, feel indignant about
same? ANXIOUS.
No, o should not feel indignant
about such a letter. You should laugh
at 1t, and ignore the writer, who surely
is old enough to realize that such ex.
pressions would be distasteful to a
young woman who laid n claim at all
to common sense.

A Cooking Hint-Try this once and
you will always follow it: When you
put your roast in the oven put a small
dish of vinegar in also. 1t will not
only keep your meat from burning, but
will maxi it much more tender than it
would otherwise be, improving the
flavor as we'll. A tablespoonful of vine
gar put in a fige-pound pot roast will
make the meat more tender and palat-
able.

Mercerized Bingham is q suitable
material for making a plain dressing
sack. Make it collarless and outline
the opening, fronts and sleeves with a
two-inch old of white. or use white
embroidery.
The easiest and most satisfactory
way to put sleeves in is to French
seam them. To do this, allow a quar-
ter of an inch more on the pattern
than if you were going to bind them.
Put three rows of gathers an eighth OF
an inch apart. Basic the sleeves in
with the seam on the right side. Stitch
and trim closely, turn the sleeves
wrong side out, stitch again, you
have a neat armhole.
The amateur milliner will find it sur
prisingly easy to fashion a dainty
summer hat. Over the fragile bri1n
of a large wire frame the net is tightly
drawn, all edges finished with bands
of ribbon, plainly applied, or a lace
rangemen The crown should be
covered with miniature lace ruffles or
stirring. The last mentioned method
is good and gives some body to the
net, which serves to hide the wire
frame. Only the most delicate trim
ming can be used on a hat of this kind,
though often a large plume or number
of them will be found on a net hat.
A pretty trimming is formed with clus-
tiers of rosebuds, small daisies or for
get-me-nots.
