Mineral Point Women are Finding
Relief at Last


Relief at Last.
It does seem that women have more
than fair share of the aches and pains
that affiict humanity; they must keep
up, must attend to duties in spite of
constantly aching backs, or headaches,
dizzy spells, bearing down pains; they
must stoop over, when to stoop means
torture They must walk and bend
and work with racking pains and many
aches from kidney ills. Sick kidneys
cause more suffering than any other
organ of the body. Keep the kidneys
we'll and much suffering is saved Read
of remedy for kidneys only that is
endorsed by people in this locality:
Mrs. Samuel Wilcox, Dakota street,
Dodgeville, Wis, says: For several
years I was afflicted by kidney and
bladder trouble. | suffered constantly
with backacke and distressing pains in
my loins, and although I tried num-
Der of remedies, l was not benefited
until took Doan's Kidney Pills. They
soon disposed of my trouble, and there

Then steal down vines to the

MODERN LAWYERS.

The technical training of the
modern American lawyer. his
professional prepOSSesSiOnS and
his business inyOlyemenfs impose
limitations upon him and sub
ject him to temptations which
seriously stand in the way of
his rendering ideal service to So
ciety. Modern business in par
ticular, with its huge and com
plicated processes. has tended to
subordinate him. to make him Il
servant instead of a free adviser
and a master of justice. He sell
dom thinks Of himself as the adj
vocate OF society. He moves in
the atmosphere of private rather
than public service. Moreover.
he is absorbed now more than
ever before into the great indus
trial organism. He becomes more
and more q mere expert in the
legal side of a certain class Of
great industrial or financial un-
dertakings. -GOvernor Woodrow

To Improve the Teeth.
Nv Dear Miss Doom

My Dear Miss Doom.

some sort of an acid for cleaning the
teeth, but have forgotten the name of
it. Will you kindly let me know what
it is? l nave been around the North
west in lumber camps dnd have not
bothered with my teeth. Thanking
you, A KEARNY READER.
I do not recall the acid for the teeth
TO which you refer. You can use tar
taric acid for your teeth, which is a
powder, applying it with a toothbrush,
but do not use it oftener thar threa
times a week. After using it, brush the
teeth with camphorated chalk and this
may be used as a regular tooth powder
three times a day.

FOR SUMMER COTTAGES.


Very attractive dressing tables, win
dow seats n book s can be made
from packing boxes, and these would
often help to solve a furnishing prob
lem in the summer cottage. For a
dressing table get two boxes about
twenty-nine inches wide and eighteen
or twenty inches deep. Have a shelf
put in each twelve inches from the top.
Cover the inside of the boxes with plain
colored linen, denim or ~sateen, a soft
pink, for instance, with a rose cretonne.
Place a lapboard on top of the boxes 50
that the curve comes over the space be-
tween the boxes and fasten them to-
gether. Cover the lapboard with ere
tonne, hang little curtains over the
two lower closets and at the space in
the middle of the back. All edges
should be covered with gimp. The mir
ror frame should be covered with Gre
tonne, and If one wishes to be up-to-
date, have three mirrors hinged to-
gether, the middle one the largest.

CHANGE THINGS ABOUT.


Simplify wherever you can. Change
the pictures about a bit and put up
some new simple prints in place of
some Of the old ones for a change.
Danish useless bric-a-brac. for a few
well-chosen and well-placed ornaments
are worth more, from an artistic point
of view, than a motley array of small
jugs and vases. Put away as much as
possible. leaving out bowls and vases
for flowers and let them be the chief
summer ornaments. 1t will also make
the boresome work of busting easier.
To dampen q cheese-cloth buster with
a little furniture polish is a busting
wrinkle that few know. 1t wipes up
dust and does not simply remove it on
as so many busters do.
If the winter curtains and hangings
are very handsome ones, so that the
summer dust will harm them, have
them cleaned and put away, and mex
pensive summer ones used instead. Dc
not make the house cherries and ugly
by having bare windows. In putting
away velour hangings always roll
them with the nap. Folding ruins

Shepherds checks are being much
used for little girls coats. This n

with a big collar that is both becom-
ing and smart. In this case the collar
is of chanticleer red and the braid is
black. The touch of bright color is
charming and eminently childish, and
the combination of trimming and ma
terial is fashionable in the extreme,
but such a little coat can be varied In
many ways. 1t ear be made of broad
cloth or of serge, it can be made Of
linen or pique, of duck or poplin, it
can be made longer to cover the frocE,
it can be worn just as illustrated or
with a belt, consequently it is adapted
to many uses and to the tiny boys as
well as to little girls. When made for
the boys 1t should be buttoned from
left to right, otherwise there would he
no difference.
