Arranging Flowers.

Here are five golden rules which should
be observed by those who often arrange
flowers: Use plenty of foliage. Put your
flowers in very lightly. Use artistic
glasses. Do not put more than two or.
at the most, three different kinds OF flow
ers in one decoration. Arrange your col
ors to form a bold contrast or. better
still. a soft harmony The aim Of the
decorator should be to show off the flow
ers-not the vases that contain them;
therefore, the simpler ones are far pref
cradle to even the most elaborate. Glasses
for a dinner table should be either white
a delicate shade of green, or rose color,
according to the flowers arranged in

Washing Hankerchiefs.

Delicate handkerchiefs can be done up
easily at home. and careful handling
causes them to wear much better. Wet
them, rub each gently over with good
white soap, and soak in tepid water over
night. Squeeze out (do not wring). put
them in a small enameled pan, cover
with cold water and half a teaspoonful
of powdered borax. Boil slowly. pour
into basin, add cold water and squeeze
out all soap.
Next, immerse them in clear tepld
water, rinse about in this; then plunge
into cold water tinged with blue. Leave
in this for half an hour. squeeze and

BELFAST WATER SUPPLY DR.. L. W. HAM
mons has received the following letter from
H. D. Evans of Augusta. director of the Maine
Laboratory of Hygiene, under date of July
18th:
DEAR DOCTOR:
am enclosing the results of the analysis of
the summer sample of water from your public
supply, sent to me on the 18th. The analysis
shows the water to be free from both chemical
and bacterial evidence of sewage pollution.
As is natural in the case of all surface waters
at this time Of the year, when there is so much
growing vegetation both in and about the
water, this one contains more vegetable mat
ter than at the time of the last analysis, but
this will in no way affect the drinking quality
Of the water. A microscopical examination
failed to show the presence of any vegetable
organisms that would cause odors or tastes in
the water. In its present condition should
regard this water as good one to drink and
for all domestic purposes.

Lots of it in Belfast But Daily Growing
Less.
The kidneys cry for help.
Not an organ in the whole body so delicately
constructed.
Not one so important to health.
The kidneys are the filters of the blood.
When they fail the blood becomes foul and
poisonous.
There can be no health where there is poi
soned blood.
Backache is one of the first indications of
kidney troubles.
It is the kidneys cry for held. Heed it.
Doan's Kidney Pills are what is wanted.
Are just what overworked kidneys need.
They strengthen and invigorate the kidneys;
help them to do their work; never fail to cure
any case of kidney disease.
