UNNATURAL THINNESS
 EASILY CORRECTED
By Clever Prescription Which Can De
 Filled at Any Drug Store
No Need to He Thin Now as Reports
 Show This Method Effective

People who are very thin and scrawny ought not to be so. Undoubtedly they are more subject to disease and con- tagions than the normally fleshy. Thin ness is usually accompanied by weak ness, and weakness subjects any one to colds, coughs, consumption. pneumo- mia, etc It has been discovered, almost by accident that tincture cadomene when combined in a prescription with proper accelerative medicines, becomes one of the most valuable, effective, and reliable nutritive or flesh making medi- cines known to science. It is especially beneficial to men and women between the ages of sixteen and fifty-five. who from lack of proper nerve force and digestion. remain undeveloped in body, limbs, arms and bust. A we'll rounded symmetrical figure in man or woman indicates health. magnetism. stamina and happiness.
 ten to forty pounds should not fail to begin with this valuable prescription.
 First, obtain of any we'll stocked druggist three ounces of essence of pepsin and three ounces of syrup of rhubarb in an 8 OF. bottle. Then add one ounce compound essence cardiol. Shake and let stand two hoursN Then add one ounce tincture cadomene com pound (not cardamom). Shake well and take one teaspoonful before each meal, one after each meal. Drink plenty of water between meals and when re- tiring. Keep up this treatment regu- larly and of a certainty from ono to three pounds will be added to the weight each week. and the general health will also improve.

Even If he were the kind of man who gets mad and blows the roof off the house occasionally, she would be occupied, because she'd be trying to ward off these spells and keep him in a good humor. AS it is, she leads the life of the idle rich woman, and so having nothing better to do, must berate her husband for lack of affection"
 'Who is it. that said that mans af- lection is like an elevator-always going LID or down?" asked.

sl know something that you would give your eyes to know,' said Peggy as she ensconced herself in big arm chair be- fore the fire the other afternoon and tried to get my curiosity up to fever heat.
 "Well, why don't you tell me then, stingy," I pleaded fervently.
 Its about friend of ours" she said demurely.
 Naturally, or we wouldn't be inter ested.' I observed.
 Mentioning the name of the woman in question, she continued:
 'She has written to the Ladies' Ter Home Journal, or the Preside Compan- ion or some equally reputable publication, asking for advice as how to treat her husband, whom she declares doesn't seem to care as much for her as he once did

the devoted husband was more surprised to hear all this than she had been! He had never suspected such a thing; he saw her through The Eyes of Affec- tion'; and he didn't even know that she had passed the first milestone of her youth as yet"
 "And they lived happily ever after wards.'' said Peggy, ''her lesson learned" {"
 Wouldn't it be rather good advice to give our friend, Mrs. Young Wife {" I asked. just to give her the little story, The Eyes of Affection to read?'' "The kindest thing in her case" sug- gested Peggy, who is nothing If not heroic in her treatment of men and women, would be for some rather cruel experi- ence to come to her which would make her appreciate her husbands worth and see what a treasure she has in him, whose only fault seems to be that he isn't as 'wordy' as he once was!"
 Words count for very little in the mat ter of loving. I have found," said dreamily. "In fact, whether 1t be hus- band, father, sister. brother or friend the spoken word df 1t is one's nature tc give out what they feeD Is all right and makes us Rosary of Friends-but oft times the sincerest affection is never spoken of-between those who love the most"

ASSOCIATED CHARITIES
 WORK HAS NOW PASSED
 THE EXPERIMENTAL STAGE

One-haif of the month of February is rast and in spite of the fact that there has been little cold weather during that period the demands upon the resources cf the Associated Charities have kept their high mark. Ninety-fve appeals for assistance have been made in the first 10 lays of the jmonth. Fully two-thirds of these were on account of sickness, acci- cent, old age and widowhood. The re- maining one-third was represented by various causes; chief among which was lack of employment. No worthy appil- cant was turned away. In every instance temporary relief was provided pending further investigation. In many instances tbis investigation developed the fact thal the statements of some were fictitious ana unworthy of further consideration.
 As the society becomes more widely known. 1t is receiving increased co-opera- ton on the part of various other phi lanthropic institutions, and charitaoiy lii- c,,ned individuals, in which connection 'he axcellent coordination of the Boys ciup' the Mercy Home, Young Woman's Chris , t,ap association. the Octavia White Home the GIFTS ttOlt1o dt iSe''N -~>~'
 or's office, and others have enaoled ''e Associated Charities to more expeoitioos- lv handle different problems than wouiu otherwise have been the case had not this cooperation been forthcoming
 "The necessity for this cooperation cannot be too strongly emphasized,' saio Secretary w. M. McGrath yesterday TOT in many instances when the Asosciatea Charities was referred to in regard to an applicant 1t was found that the said ap- plicant had already received aid from the Associated Charities. and was making further appeals only in the hope of gain- Ing assistance from so many different ln- diyiduals and organizations that further efforts to obtain & livelihood by honest work would be rendered unnecessary.
 .'The system of passing on from city to city, the individual who makes an ap- peal for this purpose. canont be LOO strongly deprecated. for in the majority of instances investigation has proven the falsity of the statements of the one so applying.

 That looks to me like hunting some thing to worry about, with vengeance" I observed.
 ''I just wish I was the editor of the woman's department of the paper she sent her communication to-" said Peggy ve- hemently.
 What would your advice be?" asked interestedly.
 Why, should write post haste to The Young Wife q know she signed her let ter that way-they always dol that she was not person to be pitied or sympa- thized with, but to be-envjed. The whole trouble with her life is-not lack of af- lection on her husbands part but that 1t is too easy. If she didn't have clothes enough, she might have to worry over that, and, of course. her mind would be occupied some of the time; If she didn't have servants a plenty, she might be

dozen new books of verse to finish it. Her romantic nature was stirred. He had never married-because (she knew full welD she had chosen the other man. She began to prepare for his coming she even thought he might write some verses to her hair; her eyes; and her romantic nature was so perturbed that her husband seemed a very common place sort of person beside this great Genius
 And so the poet came" l went on with my story-or rather George Hib- bard's. Nothing was as she had planned 1t. The poet was so struck by the change in her appearance that immediately he spoke of her gray hair and the falling away of her girlish figure to lines of embonpoint, and he harped constantly about the things of 20 years before!"
 How dreadful!' sighed Peggy, who looked deeper and deeper Into the ashes of the half-burnt fire as my story went on.
 "The poor woman crept back home to her husband for consolation" was the way the author wound up his story. "She told him of the transition in her; that she had lost her youth; that there were gray hairs in her head plenty; that her cheeks had lost their bloom. And
