There are hundreds of women in this vicinity, weak, thin, rundown, tired out and nervous. Such women need Vinol just as much as did Mrs. Jane Pepper. of 1907 Howard street, san Francisco, Cal, who says:

Dr H. F. Cameron, of McGill uni versity, in a recent address in Chi cago, explained to an interested audi ence of sociologists why so many beautiful women marry men who, to say the least, are not handsome. The real reason is what Dr. Cameron de- scribes as blind psychic impulse But, he says, in spite of the blind ness of the impulse. it often strikes the right trail to a fat bank account or a lucid, sharp sense of humor or manners and good breeding, which compensate for the mere physical ugliness of the lucky men.

CHANGING OF TEXT BOOKS

CHANGING OF TEXT BOOkS- An advertisement is now running, de- scribing the proposed change in text books for the public schools, that though legally and properly wOrded gives a wrong impression to the un- informed. In the advertisement every book used in the schools is listed, from which fact some people have drawn the erroneous inference that all the books are to be changed. The law requires the board of education to make new contracts every four years, making such changes as it sees fit at that time. That necessitates advertising the whole list of books so the board can change any one or all of them if it so elects. As a mat ter of fact it does not intend to change many of them, but it cannot be determined which ones will be changed until the board assemblies for action. The change of some of the text books is deemed necessary to keep up with improved methods of teaching certain branches. scores of new text books being published annually

GUARDING THE KING.

Old English Methods Wher the Mon
arch Was Taken Sick.
The law raises peculiar safeguards
round the person Of the English SOW
ereign in case of sickness. They are
mere survivals In the present settled
order of government, but at one time
the opportunity which the kings In
capacity afforded aspirants to the
throne or treason makers to shorten
bis days at a minimum Of risk of de-
lection made the precautions reason
able.
IF the king be taken SICK" says
Coke in his Constitutes" there ought
to be warrant issue from the privy
council, addressed to certain physi-
clans and surgeons, authorizing them
to administer to the royal patient p0-
tones, syrupos. laxitavas, medicinas,
etc. Still, none of these should be CIV
en- except by consent and advice Of
the council, and they ought to set
down In writing everything done and
administered, and they should COM
pound all drugs themselves and not in
trust their preparation to any apothe-
cary"
Coke wrote thus Of precedent in the
year 1910, and today the law is pract-
cally as he found it, although at the
present time in practice the privy coun-
ell simply hears reports of the progress
Of the kings malady and leaves actual
treatment entirely to the physicians In
direct charge Of the case.-Exchange.

How to Care For Plants During the
Winter Months.

How to Care For Plants During the
Winter Months.
Keep plants well watered. Many per-
sons will pour little water on plant,
enough to soak in an inch or two, and
wonder that the plant does not grow.
The trouble is that the growing part of
the plant receives no nourishment.
Plants should be watered every day
and In such a way that the roots get
plenty of moisture The soil should be
rich. Care should be taken In placing
flowers near window. Remember the
upper sash is warmer than the lower
Asparagus ferns and sword ferns are
very good winter plants. They must
be kept moist and be closely watched
for the red spider.
Primroses require much care. They
should be changed from one pot to an
In diameter. The atmosphere should
be cool, about So degrees. They should
be kept we'll watered.
The umbrella plant, the cyclamen,
the geranium, the petunia, all will
thrive in the winter If attention is Civ
en- them.
Heliotropes need especial attention.
The soil should be rich and the room
warm and the plant kept where 1t will
get lots of sunshine. The soil should
be kept Just ON the verge of drying out
| and differs from other soils in this re-
spect.
Palms need moist heat. They are
among the most difficult plants to care
for In the winter Coal gas often
proves fatal to them. They always
| should be kept moist.
Begonias are the best plants for win
ter. Their foliage is beautiful, and the
coloring on the leaves is as dainty as
that on the flowers when they bloom.
Good soil and plenty of water will
make them grow.
