CURE THAT SORE THROAT

Sore throat is Inflammation of the
mucous membrane of the throat, and
If this membrane happens to be at all
sensitive predisposition to sore
throat will exist.
Paxtine Toilet Antiseptic is both a
preventative and a cure for sore
throat because it possesses extraor-
binary cleansing, healing and germi-
cidal qualities. Just little in a glass
of water used as a gargle, will quick
ly relieve all soreness and strengthen
the mucous membrane of the throat,
and thus overcome all tendency to
sore throat.
Paxtine is far superior to liquid an
tiseptics or Peroxide for all toilet and
hygienic uses.
Paxtine may be obtained at any
drug store, % and 56c a box, or sent
postpaid upon receipt of price by The
Paxton Toilet Co, Boston, Mass.

discovery of this new process is large
ly due to the fad that bleached cotton

Working on this basis, scientists
have discovered method of manufac.

New England cotton spinners are
exceedingly optimistic about the dis.

RIBBON AS JEWELRY
PLAYS IMPORTANT PART IN PER-
SONAL DECORATION NOW.
Grosgrain Ribbon Used to Bring Out
Settings of RriIliants in Pins and

Grosgrain ribbon of rich quality and

has been used for some time with
gold and ieweled slides as watch fobs,
but is now being put to many other
uses.
A woman In mourning, who cannot
afford TO buy herself a new black
enamel or gun metal watch, may wear
her gold one, provided the chain is
sombre. This is often of onyx beads
twisted into rope, but more econom-
zeal is long chain of grosgrain rib
bon with slides and hook of onyx or
dull jet.
The width of these ribbon guards
varies from half an inch to an inch
and a half, the three-quarters width
being suitable for older women.
The ribbon watch guard is no long
er popular for mourning only. They
are smart just now to hold watch or
lorgnetts, worn with jeweled or
enamai slides at intervals throughout
It's length, with hook and catch to
match. Sometimes these slides are

or semi precious stones, occasionally

Besides being new and fashionable,
such guard is serviceable and much

than jeweled gold chains or even the
antique silver ones set with amethysts

Sailed Ghosts
By LAWRENCE ALFRED CLAY
Copyright. 1910. by Associated Literary Press

Mrs. George Armstrong, relict Of
George Armstrong of the village of
Brunswick, had passed her year Of
mourning, and there we're gossips in
the village mean enough to say that
she was in the market again. OF
course they did her injustice No
widow is ever in the market If it so
happens that women contract a sec
ond marriage, it is matter of sur
prise to them. They didn't plan to,
and how they came to do it is a mat
ter to puzzle them.
1t was true that the widow Arm
strong was looked upon with favor
by several men. There was the piano
tuner that came down from Cleveland
every two or three months on his
rounds Of the villages She had no
piano, but he called and discussed
grand opera with her He had long
hair and wild eyes and dandruff on
his coat collar, and he had thrown
out hints that his artistic soul longed
for mate.
Then there was the sewing machine
man. He had short hair, tame eyes
and no dandruff, but he had his good
points. He had committed pages and
pages of Shakespeare to memory, and
between the way he could spout them
and repair sewing machine was
something to make a widow sit up
and think.
And then there were the village
butcher, the lightning rod man, the
druggist over at Liverpool and the
man who came twice a year to sell
the farmers fertilizers and labor say
ing machinery
For not being on the market, and
for woman who did not in the least
encourage the fattery of men, the
widow Armstrong was we'll provided
for. The last, but not least, of her
admirers was the village carpenter
His name was Phillips, and he was
q bachelor. He was coy man and
shy man. OF course he couldn't
