Some Useful "DOnt's."

Here are a few "Dont's" regarding
flies:
Don't allow flies in your house.
Don't buy foodstuffs from stores
where flies are tolerated.
Don't allow fruit, candy or other
food to remain where flies can get at
it.
Don't allow decaying animal or
vegetable matter, or any kind of filth,
to remain in or about the house All
such material should be burned, buried
or otherwise disposed of. To sprinkle
it with lime or kerosene is help.
Don't live near a stable if you can
help it. A large percentage of flies
come from such places.
Above all, don't allow flies in q
roam where there is person i'll
with an infectious disease. They
will pick up disease germs and spread
them elsewhere.

at small cost The wives OF the del
egates and their friends and various
visitors to the convention will lind
great comfort and pleasure in the
daily and tEice-a-day excursions, run
ming thirty or forty miles down the
beautiful Chesapeake bay and to the
various resorts on the Eastern Shore
of Maryland, one Of the garden-spots
OF the world "Pen-Mar, in the Blue
Ridge, LIS only short ride distant and
Harper's Ferry and the mountain re
sorts OF Western Maryland will invite
pleasant stop-overs. From this mere
recital it can be seen chat Baltimore
is ideally located for holding this con
vention."
From the standpoint of political
expediency the friends OF all the Pres
idential candidates must agree that
Baltimore is the logical city in which
to hold the convention. Maryland is
neutral State, ii has no Presidential
candidate and the Democrats OF Mary
land have no favorite among the can
didates. The Maryland Democracy
offers to the Democracy OF the Nation,
Baltimore City as a neutral battle
ground for all candidates. place
where every candidate will receive
fair treatment and no favorities will
be played
Baltimore is nearer the center of
population Of the country than any
of the large cities which are seeking
the convention. Maryland stands as
the gateway between the Northern
and Southern States. 1t is easy OF
access to all these States, both by
rail and by water, and to the Central
and Middle West States.
In the history Of our country Balti-
more has received much recognition
as a Convention City.

can Convention nominated Henry
Clay, Of Kentucky, for President, at

ident by the Democratic Convention,

say to every suffering woman if that
medicine does not help her, there is
nothing that will. Mrs. JANETzKI,
1868 Arch ST., Chicago, Ill.
This is the age Of substitution, and
women who want cure should insist
upon Lydia Z. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound just as this woman did, and
not accept something else on which the
druggist can make little more profit.
Women who are passing through this
critical period or who are suffering
from any Of those distressing ills Pc
culiar to their sex should not lose sight
Of the fact that for thirty years Lydia
q. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
which is made from roots and herbs,
has been the standard remedy for fe-
