tell you that it was a way-up affair.
The spot was a veritable fairyland,

Exhausted

1t is strange that the
modern housewife with
her many duties neglects
to care for herself as
men do.
The care Of a home and
children, the countless
little tasks and steps,
the responsibility, the
washing, ironing, bak-
ing, serving of meals, is
not only combining, but
exnausting to woman's
energy, and this, more
than anything else. de-
prives her of robust
health and beauty.
Many women under
such conditions resort to
too much tea and coffee
drinking, which only
stimulates by drug effect
increases the harm and
ultimately ruins the
health.
To the housewife with
her cares, we earnestly
say, drink BoNANo hot at
your meals and cold or
iced between meals. Keep
a large pitcher handy
and drink it freely at
your work.
1t will refresh and sus-
tain you. Your nerves
will benefited, your di-
gestion improved, your
complexion will clear up.

RAISE RATE WEEK EARLY.
Bank of England Takes Precautiol
Against Demand for Gold.

England raised i,s discount rate from :;
TO per cent week earlier than last
year in order to protect its reserve
against possible unexpected demands
when the usual autumn gold shipments
are thoroughly under way. Curiously,
money remains remarkably cheap and
plentiful. and the Bank of England s
stock of coin and bullion stands near
S2i5uanpD but measure of protection
is considered necessary in view of the
continental political situation and the ad-
vanced bank rates at Berlin, Belgium,
Sweden, Denmark, Vienna and Paris.
The fact of London discount dealers
having forced the private rates over the
banks minimum of per cent. causing
an inundation of bills 70 the Bank of
England, was another factor in the adop-
ton of the higher minimum.
