How to Clean Tapestry.

Shake the tapestry gently but well
to remove loose dirt and then immerse
1t in a cleansing fluid composed as
follows. Take four ounces of soap to
a quart of water and boil it until it
becomes a jelly; then divide this
equally in two tubs of hot water, ad-
ding a cup of bran to eacn tub to pre-
vent the colors from running. 1t is
best to sew the bran in cheese cloth
bags, so that it will not stock to the
fabric.
After washing the tapestry alter
nately in the two tubs, rinse in water
strongly favored with vinegar Ito pre-.
vent colors fading) and dry.
After the heavier weight of the wa
ter is out, stiffen with a thin boiled
starch and iron quickly on the wrong
side with a rather hot iron.

ROMEO CAUGHT IN CHIMNEY
Curious Antics of Breton Lover

Romeo tramped it on foot all that
distance. At night he reached the
AS the door was shut he decided to
try the roof. On the roof he found
the chimney, and it seemed to him
that was quite wide enough to let him
down. He descended for some dis
lance, but then, as he came near the
fireplace, the chimney narrowed. He
slipped and got in narrow neck.
Here he was caught, unable to move
up or down. Before long he felt
suffocating sensation. If the thing
lasted much longer it would be the
end of him. He could stand it no
more. After groaning he yelled, and

/ The nearest chimney-sweep was
called, but he could not help him out.
| The gendarmes woke up the mayor,
and he, with all the HOtables of the
place, went to look. They consulted
among them, and the only way to
liberate the captive lover was to pull
down part of the chimney. This was
done by some masons, and he was
presently released, but before being
allowed his freedom a police report
was drawn up, with view to infiict-
ing a series of fines for breaking into
a private Enclosure, damaging other
peoples property, waking up the au
thorities unnecessarily, and causing
public scandal. Poor Romeo was very

HERE IS A REAL
DYSPEPSIA CURE
No Indigestion, Gas, Sour
ness or Headache Five
Minutes Later.

The question as to how long you are
going to continue a sufferer from In
digestion. Dyspepsia or o~ut-of-order
Stomach is merely a matter of how
soon you begin taking some Diapep-
sin.
If your Stomach is lacking in di-
gestive power. Thy not help the stom-
ach to do its work. not with drastic
drugs, but a reinforcement Of diges-
tive agents, such as are naturally at
work in the stomach.
People with weak Stomachs should
take a little Diapepsin occasionally.
and there will be no more Indigestion,
no feeling like a lump of lead in the
stomach. no heartburn, Sour risings.
Gas on Stomach Or Belching of undi-
gested food. Headaches, Dizziness or
Sick Stomach. and. besides. what you
a will not ferment and poison your
breath with nauseous odors. All these
symptoms resulting from a u out
of-order stomach and dyspepsia are
generally relieved in five minutes
after taking Il little D%iapepsin.
Go to your druggist and get a So
cent case of Pape's Diapepsin now,
and YOU will always go to the table
with n hearty appetite. and what you
eat will taste good. because your
stomach and intestines will be clean
n fresh. and you will know there
are not going to be any more bad
nights and miserable days for you.
They freshen you and make you feel
like life is worth living.
