Hot Water Cure for Insomnia,

To insure the benefit of the hot wa
ter, it must be taken off the fire the mo-
ment it boils-not just before or after
and poured at once into a cup or
glass Then it should be taken while
very hot. A little practice will enable
one to swallow it at little less than
the boiling point, and in addition to
the proper temperature, the proper
time must be observed. 1t is most eff
flcacious in curing Indigestion and i'm.
proving the general tone of the system
If taken Immediately on waking in the
morning, again an hour before lunch
and an hour before dinner also and
to drink two slassfuls on retiring will
almost positively insure sound sleep
1t may require two or three days trial
before the desired result is effected
but once gained it can be held with
out interruption by faithfully pursuing
this method

Cure for Headache.


One of the very best remedies for a
sick or nervous headache was suggest
ed to me recently by Finnish serv-
ant girl She took raw potatoes with
out either washing or pairing and cut
them into thick slices These We're
laid close together on the forehead and
temples and kept in place by covering
with large handkerchief folded cor
nerwise and tied in the back.
In short time the pain disappeared.
AS the pieces of potato get hot replace
with cold fresh ones.
They give all the GOODNESS of ice
without the incidental dampness, and
there is not the burning sensation ice
often causes.

very bad. and could not give the per-
sonal inspection l desired. but l was
convinced that the soil, location and
water rights were all that could be
desired. l again went over my tract
yesterday. went over 1t all along, and
take great pleasure to inform you
that l am more than pleased with It,
The road which you are now putting
through the tract passes my place.
My only regret Is that l do not own
more. was also pleased to notice
the buildings going up ut the present
time. and l also learned that many
more are being contracted for shall
begin to build this fall so as to be
ready to farm my tract AS soon as the
season opens.
With best regards and best wishes
Tor your future success. l am.

NOTHING GAINED
BY SUFFRAGE
Bishop Doane Takes Decided
Stand on Militant Suffra.
gettes in Address

Albany, N. Y, June 9.-Addressing
the graduating class of St. Agnes
school today on the subject of "Wo-
manhood" Bishop Doane had the fol-
lowing to say on the woman suffrage
question:
81 cannot count it necessary, and
perhaps it is not wise for me to cau-
ton you against the loudly shrieked
call to give women the right to vote
and to be voted for. / am disposed
to think that the quiet and decent
appeal of few of the so-called suffra-
'gists will be drowned in the sort of
bowling dervish performances of the
so-called suffragettes that they will
fail Of any effect. At any rate the
argument should be addressed rather
to legislators than to you except SO
far as one is justified in saying here
to you that your womanhood will gain
nothing by suffrage and is losing
every day in it's dignity and it's true
influence, by the hysterical clamor
which is employed in the pursuit of
