Money and expense are not essential to
artistic homes and attractive rooms. One
dollar and fifty cents worth of material
will completely transform a crude, mar
tistic room into a graceful, dainty apart
ment.
Really it is good taste and skill that
makes the home homelike. That dainty
touch is worth twice as much as money.
Wall paper is expensive-it costs money
to buy it, to hang it and again to re-
move it. With the use of the alabastined
wall there is only the slight cost of the
material-any one can brush it on--and it
is not necessary to wash it off the wall
when fresh coat is required.
It is very easy to mix, very simple to
apply, but the results are simply beauti-
full A whole house can be done at just
a little more than the cost of single
room when ordinary materials are used.
And this is true, that now that we have
so much better materials for use in the
decoration of our homes, that wall paper,
common kalsomine and paint are now as
much out of date as the old time white
wash, tallow candles and rough hewn
floors. Mere money rs no longer an es-
sential in good housefurnishing in artistic
home making.
The new materials and labor-saving ma
chimes are most welcome to us all-and
every thoughtful woman, every woman
who cares for her home, is quick to utilize
them

MOST PEOPLE DO
NOT KNOW CAUSE
OF THEIR SICKNESS

Does human health depend on one
organ alone? This question is becom-
Ing widely discussed since L. T. Coop
or first advanced his theory that the
stomach Is the true seat of life and all
health dependent upon It.
Mr.. Cooper, who has met with re-
markable success In the sale of his
new medicine, believes that the stom-
ach Is responsible for most sickness,
and that this organ Is weak in the
present generation. While discussing
this theory recently, he said: 81 am
asked time and again to tell why my
medicine has made such q record
wherever have introduced It. My an
swer always Is, because 1t restores the
stomach to normal condition. No
one will deny that today there are
more half-sick men and women than
ever before. Nothing critical seems
to be the matter with them. They
are just half-sick most Of the time.
They don't know really what Is the
matter with them. have talked with,
thousands during the past two years,
and few knew indeed what their trou-
BILE was. One said nervousness, another
said kidney trouble, another liver COM
plant, some constipation, or heart
trouble, or lung trouble. Many had
treated, as they called It, for most OF
these diseases at different times. A
very common complaint Is all run
down. or tired all the time,' or mo
appetite
Il know positively that every bit OF
this chronic Ill health is caused by
stomach trouble and nothing else.
My New Discovery puts the stomach
in sound condition in about six weeks.
Mighty few people can be sick with
sound digestion. That is why my medi-
cine Is selling at such tremendous
rate. have convinced many thou
sands Of people that these things are
SO, and the number Is growing by
leaps and bounds"
Among more recent converts to Mr..
Cooper's beliefs is Mrs. Lottie L.
Miner, living on Rural Route No. 2,
Henniker, N. H., who says: II was In
poor health for six years, from stom-
ach trouble and indigestion. Quite
frequently my stomach was so weak
that it would not retain solid food.

was subject to frequent attacks of dir
illness. Life became such a burden
that often felt 1t was not worth the
living. tried everything could hear
Of, but found nothing that would az

For some time had been reading
Of the Cooper remedies, and finally de-

tirely well. I can eat anything wish,
and have not been troubled with my
stomach since. The dizzy spells dis

remedies with splendid results. will
