HEADINc FOR THE pEoPLE.

In this country there is no lack of books for the people. To the reading, thinking young person the door of op- portunity is open wide. The statistics recently issued by the National Bu- reau of Education shows that here in New England books upon every sub ject are to be had by anyone with a taste for reading. The six New Eng land states, for libraries and number of books per capita, lead the rest of the country. except that California is ahead of Rhode Island. The former state has one library for every 6.102 persons, while in Rhode Island there is one for every 6.3S7. In the number of volumes per capita, however, the little state is ahead, having two hun dred volumes for each citizen. New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Con- necticut are ahead of her in the order named, and Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont lead Massachusetts in. the number of libraries. The District of Columbia has 1, III books for each res ident. the government national library greatly adding to the per capita When it comes to a knowledge of books op- portunity is not equaled on any area of country the size of New England in the world.

SOAP.

Soap making is an old fashioned thing. but even in this day when house. keeping is not done as it once was there are still people who realize what an economy and a very easy thing it is to make home made soap. It takes lit- tie thought and time to save in tub for that purpose all the refuse fat.
 With a package of prepared I've very satisfactory soap for kitchen use may Ie made at so little expense it is with in the reach of everyone. Very good directions for soap making come in the box of lye.
 After the soap is made it should be cut into blocks and put in dry, cool place to become very hard.
 For scrubbing or the washing of coarse clothes there is nothing better than this particular kind of soap
 Soap that is purchased at the store is often very moist. It will last far longer if before using it the soap is laid away on a shelf to dry.
 This necessitates the habit of buy ing new soap before the old supply is exhausted.
 Scraps of kitchen soap should be kept in a covered jar until the proper amount has accumulated to warrant time to be given to their use Put these scraps in a granite pan with a little water and dissolve.
 The soft soap thus formed is espe- cially good for washing day, as it will save time in making quick suds.

REACHING THE SPOT
It Can Bs Done, So Scores of Norwich
 Citizens Say.

To cure an aching back,
 The pains of rheumatism.
 The tired-out feelings.
 You must reach the spot-get at the cause.
 In most cases 'tis the kidneys.
 Doan's Kidney Pills are for the kid- neys.
 Mrs. Hiram U. Neff. living at 465 Main Street Norwich, Conn, says: MT. Neff speaks highly of Doan's Kid ney Pills and has been an advocate of this remedy for a long time. For a good many years he was subject to attacks of rheumatism. This complaint was confined to the region of his kid neys and at times the pains were so severe that he could scarcely get around The stiffness and lameness in his back made it almost impossible for him to stoop or straighten after stoop- ing. The kidney secretions were very irregular in action, unnatural in ap- pearance and caused him great an noyance. Doan's Kidney Pills were recommended to him; he procured a box from N. D. Sevin & Sons drug store. and they gave hin, gratifying results from the first. The pain in bis back was banished. and the secre- tions from his kidneys restored to a normal condition. At times since he has noticed a slight recurrence of the trouble, but an appeal to Doan's has always given him prompt relief"

Woman in Life and in the Kitchen
rHE usE oF NUTS As A Eoop.

We hear much these days of the value of nuts as food. little or nothing of their abuse.
 A pound of nuts contain more nu- trients than pound of any other good substance.
 Because you hear that nuts are good to eat. do not eat them in quantities. It does not take more than four or live ounces to supply all the fat and pro- teids or flesh and bone making ele- ments that are needed by full grown person for a whole day.
 The excessive use of nuts by giving the system too much fat or albumen often causes pimples or an excess of uric acid. When they are eaten freely at meal the other things eaten should not be highly fatty or muscle making. For this reason the custom of eating large quantities of nuts after heavy dinner of meats and vegetables is not good.
 Some mothers allow their children to eat peanut butter or other nut buffers in great quantities. There is no surer way to ruin their compilations and even may cause kidney trouble.

As A sunscRIaER VIEWS lT.

The names of subscribers are com ing in for the Jubilee book of the 25oth anniversary as fast as The Bulletin anticipated that they would. This book is essential to the proper completion of the event, and it's publication was assumed by The Bulletin as matter of civic pride rather than as specu- lative enterprise. There is no money in it for the printer. One citizen has ordered 2f copies and one 10, and these are the only large individual orders.
 An order from New York subscrib- CT. who has no other interest than the interest awakened by few years Of residence here. reads:
 "Piease have my name put down tor one of the celebration books ! want it for two reasons: First, want to be able to read the whole thing and study the pictures at my leisure; sec ond, it is an investment-your two dollar book will be m demand at 70 or better before you and get through selling things. There are people liv- ina in Norwich now who won't order and whose children will be begging for copies at any price in 1925"
 This is the truth. If The Bulletin does not print an edition larger than 500 copies, the book may be in such demand that it will go to a premium at once.
 No agents will be sent out to solicit orders, because that would add to the cost of the edition. Names of subscrib- CTS should be sent in to the business manager of The Bulletin.

W Try Natures Cure.

q am suffering with a backache sfor the past five years. It is hot, gnaw- ing pain between the shoulders and often I spit up blood. I am never without a cold or cough. I am the mother of seven small children and my work is never done. I have been to several doctors and they all seem to think it is from my lungs that the pain comes. What I want to know is there any one in our large family who has suffered from the same kind of a back ache? Is there any cure for it? Will some one who has suf- fered from lung trouble tell me what she thinks of it? This awful pain is killing me slowly. VIVIAN.
 Chicago"
 Without casting discredit upon the doctors let me ask if it has ever oc- cured to you that pain and blood may come from a disordered stomach? I have known such symptoms to arise from acute dyspepsia. In either case it would be well for you to try na- ture's cure in the form of all the fresh air you, can get and plenty of milk. Drink it several times day. In the morning, at noon and at bed time, beat raw egg into a glass of milk and drink it. Rub your whole body and especially between the shoulders, with a rough cloth, morning andNnight, then with alcohol, rubbing it hard until the fish glows Sit and stand straight and breathe deep down to the bottom of your lungs to clear out the effete matter. These few and plain rules have helped many. They cannot hurt you.

Transferred Feeliro.

A creed that has no element of the supernatural may seem to some peo-
 pie to lack the essentials of religion. But our day, which in it's most pro gressive aspects had no strong theo- logical or metaphysical faith. lis vet open in imagination to the God that Doctor Eliot recognizes. We have a deepy emotional and. in it's last anal ysis mystical feeling about human society-a feeling which, in quality and the degree of value attached to it's object. has the characteristics pertain ing to all religious emotions. We have merely transferred our religious feeling from the old objects to new one. human society, which calls for some of the qualities of the old religfon-faith. imagination and belief in the reality of the unseen.-New York Evening Post

ARRANGING PANsIEs.

These little flowers, loved by most women, are most beautiful as table ornaments. but they must be carefully arranged to display their real beauty. There are numerous screens intended to be placed in dishes that will hold these flowers up in their natural posi- tion, but when one has no. brass or sil- yer screen one can be made with wire netting. Draw out few pieces of the wire to make the meshes large and thrust the stems into the holes. An other way is to cut the stems rather short and mingle them in a flat dish with fancy moss. The moss supports the flowers so that each can raise its tiny face as 1t grew.
