loss Of appetite. 1t means lack of
vitality, loss of strength and nerve
weakness. If appetite fails, take
Electric Bitters quickly to overcome
the cause by toning up the stomach
and curing the indigestion. Michael
Hessheimer of Lincoln, Neb., had
been sick over three years, but six
BOTTLES of Electric Bitters put him
right on his feet again. They have
helped thousands. They give pure
blood, strong nerves, good digestion.

FASHIONS NEWEST WRINKLES.

Stripes are still in.
The cutaway jacket fastens with
one button.
Black is laid under laces to bring
out their pattern.
The thinner the material the more
fullness is allowed.
Striped effects are much in evil
dence in taffetas and foulards.
Very chic is a suit of checked cloth
combined with black satin.
Favor has been extended to the
Russian blouse and long smock.
Roses are much. used on hats
tiny buds and full-blown flowers.
Purple, plum and a certain shade
of blue make a charming color
scheme.
golored crystal buttons to match
the gown are used upon a great
many models.
Plain linen 'frocl1s trimmed with
bands of striped linen are smart for
children.
Small covered buttons of plain
red and belt Of red leather give a
delightful touch of color to a white
costume.
Heavy twine-colored lace is used
to trim many Of the smartest frocks
and hats.
The newest type of corsage bou-
quet is the flower composed Of
leather colored to match the gown
Red and yellow leather roses are
worn, with the petals beautifully
cut to initiate nature, and, as they
are very costly, it is not probable
that they will become hackneyed.
freaks Of this kind are wearing roses
fashioned of shot taffetas, which do
not pretend to initiate nature, but
make pleasing touches of color
either on the hat or on the gown.
The shot taffeas roses are well
coined as a change from the flowers

PRESERVING HINTS.

In preserving currants or berries
Of tender substance, like red rasp-
berries or strawberries, do not boil.
Fill the jars in layers of graduated
sugar and fruit, fill up we'll, seal
tight and let them stand overnight,
then set in vessel of cold water, put
on back of range and let the cold
water slowly heat up to boiling
point. Remove covers before putting
i'll water. Take from fire and leave
fruit-jars in the water until cold
again, but do not cover up to steam
Screw on tops when cold. Even if,
after removing, your sugar is not all
dissolved in the jar, the fruit will
keep WELL color and flavor will be
perfect and the fruit unbroken.

MRS. LEES LETTER.

TN the summer every one feels
the need of a change. Espe-
cially is this true of the busy
mother who has to plan for
tue pleasures Of the other members
of the family.
One of the best and most complete
rests with scarcely any expense at
tached to it, is to have each room
cleared perfectly and close all those
not in constant use, move all I'M
necessary hangings, thereby getting
rid of lots of dust and letting in air
more freely. Have your meals so
that you can have one cold one
sandwiches and tea or some salads.
Not having all the house open les
sens the work, and if possible change
rooms which you've used as your
own. This gives you feeling of
visiting without the trouble of~get-
ting ready for a trip. 1t has rested
many a worn housekeeper and made
the summer months much more
pleasant than the customary vaca-
ton trips.
Regarding the Rag Rugs.
To the member who makes the
rag rugs: Do you make them in
plaits, or are the ends cut? Do you
prefer cotton rag strips or wool for
the work?
Please give me the best recipe for
preserving figs and peaches.
Am giving some good sandwich
hints, as we all have picnic baskets
to prepare at this season.
A delightful recreation fer a few
friends or the family, for those who
do not care for all-day picnics, is to
prepare a picnic supper. This is not
SO tiresome and a delightful outing.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS

If cockroaches appear after you
have once eXterminated them, send
a package of insect powder to your
next-door neighbor.
In case of fire in your house, re-
tain your presence Of mind and let
your fire insurance policy be the first
thing you carry out.
There are preparations that awill
kill the odor of tobacco smoke in
your parlors, but as rule they
smell worse than the tobacco smoke.
Never give a house party when
painters and decorators are at work
in the house.
The only sure way Of keeping the
children from hearing you swear is
to cut out the swearing entirely.
Never build spite fence. 1t
doesn't deaden the sound of your
neighbor's piano in the slightest
degree. Tribune.
Cod liver oil stains on linen may
be eradicated by soaking the marks
with equal parts of liquid ammonia
