The HOuseWif'S Corner

Some of the superstitions of old
en- times still cling to us and col
OR our lives somewhat. While we
laugh at the charge of being SUI
perstitious we are all influenced
more or less in the color of the
bridal robes chosen for members of
our families and the day of the
week and month for the wedding
ceremonies, choosing what are con
sidered lucky colors and days.
In an old book are found these
old wedding superstitutions'' and
rhymes. Color of bridal dress:
Married in white, you have
chosen all right.
Married in gray, you will go far
away.
Married in black, you will wish
yourself back.
Married in red, you will wish
yourself dead.
| Married in green, ashamed to be
seen.
Married in blue, he will always
be true.
| Married in pearl, you will live in
a whirl.
Married in yellow, soon parted
from your fellow
Married in brown, you will live
out of town.
Married in pink, your spirits will
sink.
Months of the year:
Married in January's hoar and

wait your time.

4 WARNING TO MANY
Some Interesting Facts Regarding
Health Statistics

Few people realize what extent
their health depends upon the condi-
ton of the kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases
OF serious illness, makes a chemical
analysis of the patients urine. He
knows that unless the kidneys are
doing their work properly, the other
organs cannot be brought back to
health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused in any way, serious results
are sure to follow. According to
health statistics, Bright's disease
which is really an advanced form of
kidney trouble, caused nearly ten
thousand deaths in 1910, in the state
OF New York alone. Therefore, it be-
hooves us to pay more attention to
the health of these most important
organs.
An ideal herbal compound that has
had remarkable success as a kidney
remedy is DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
the great Kidney, Liver and Bladder
Remedy.
The mild and healing influence of
Ms preparation is soon realized. It
d hds the highest for it's remarkable
e1Dord of cures. z#'< !:
If you feel that your kidneys re-
4uire attention, and wish a sample
be&tle, write to DR.. Kilmer & Co.,
Binghamton, N. Y. III Mention this
IAper and they will gladly forward
II to you absolutely free, by mail.
Swamp-Root is sold by every drug

Takes Druggists Advice With Splen-

If any one should know the worth

who sells it over his counter every

to know what remedy gives the best
satisfaction.

It is the combined action of the
medicinal curative elements of the
Gods liver, without oil, aided by the
blood-making and strengthening

Vinol so efficient in such cases.

TheSeven Mistakes of Matrimony
By DOROTHY DIX.

/, tight fist will marry a woman for

Der when she enters a theater or res
taurant, and as soon as they are mar
ried he expects her to become a mod
ell of economy, and to be satisfied
with ready-made dresses and home
constructed millinery.

deep appreciation of what is fine

by the infantile artlessness of girl

her to be able to entertain him and

Or a man who loves good cooking

after marriage that she gives him in

The pious woman and the leader

gayest rounder she can find and spend
the balance of her life worrying her

II, therefore, you would be happy
though married, avoid the second IA
tai mistake of matrimony. Don't
marry for one thing and expect an
other. Pick out the kind of a life
partner that you wish before mar
riage-for there is no such thing as
altering a husband or wife to suit
your taste.
The only sane matrimonial propo-
sition Is to pick out man or woman
on what she or he Is at the present
and take no chances on what he or
she may become in the future. BY
the time people are old enough to
get married their characters are
formed, their tastes and habits set
tied, and what they are going to be
they already are. Not once in a blue
moon do they change, and any talk
Of man developing his wife's char
