fittings. Saddle bag purses and bags
with their convenient double compart-

and velvets, and for elaborate wear there
is no end to the bead and tinsel embroid-

Of Great Use in
Breaking Up Colds

kellogg's TasteIess Castor Oil is a Thing
Long Desired.
Every one knows the value of castor
oil in breaking up fall and winter colds,
but most people have found it hard to
take.
Kellogg's Tasteless Castor Oil does
away with this only objection. 1t is pure,
simple castor oil without taste or odor.
Nothing is added; nothing good taken out.
In making castor oil tasteless, Spenc er
Kellogg & Sons of Buffalo have discover
ed secret that had evaded chemists for
5000 years.
KelIogg's Tasteless Castor Oil works
better than the old evil-tastinx, evil
smelling kind. It operates pleasantly,
without gripping, and does not upset the
stomach. Children take it easily.
Do not confuse Kellogg's Tasteless
Castor Oil with prepared, mixed or flaw
ored castor oils. 1t is the only true,
pure, tasteless kind. Sold in all drug
stores, not in bulk. but in Csc. and SOC.
sizes. The public is protected by the
trade mark-a green castor leaf. bearing
the signature -Kellogg's.
Made only by Spencer Kellogg & Sons,
Inc, Buffalo, N. Y, refiners of vege-
table oils.

The Uses of Electricity.

Its Wonderful Development in Recent Years.
To THE EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL: A
lady friend in Concord, Mass, has sent
me clipping from the Boston Evening
Transcript, and am serding it to you to
print or put 1t into the waste basket as
you choose. 1t simply shows the fact
that electricity is to be very commonly
used in the near future for power, heat
ing. lighting, etc., and when it is gen.
Grated by tide power it will be very
plentiful and cheap.
1t will be also useful in driving the
greatest evil from our land. 1t is Gods
plan to overcome evil with good. Elec-
tricity is almost as hard to handle and
not get hurt as is whiskey. A little will
give a peculiar sensation, an overdose
will give you shock, and too much will
kill as quickly and quite as surely as
whiskey. The difference is that cleo
tricity kills only the body, whiskey has
the power to kill both body and soul and
drag men into nell. Now l am not re-
ferring to that hell hereafter that has
been voted out of sight, but the hell on
earth where men and women indulge in
the use of intoxicating liquors. This
hell cannot be winked out of sight and
must be voted on, and hope the time
will soon come when we shall vote the
distillery out of existence. This is the
only thing that will do away with drunk
enness, crime and misery.
/ am glad to know that move is on
foot to get the general government out
of the liquor business. have often
wondered how long Christian men, min
listers, lawyers and doctors, would allow
themselves to be partners in the making,
wholesaling and retailing of intoxicating
liquors.
Now have somewhat wandered from
my subject, Somehow it does not make
any difference what l talk about, or
what l write about, the whiskey bust
ness will come in.
Yours in business.

New YORK, Dec. S, 1918. To judge

thronging all the smart stores and small
speciality shops one might suppose that

for nearly everyone wears lorgnettes or
a monocle suspended from jewelled
chain or modish "Sautoir. This latter
is usually of black MORE ribbon and its
mountings simple or elaborate as taste

The girlsh contingent prefers the mon
ocle to the lorgnettes, though when the
latter are closed the effect of both are
similar. The circular torn is the popular
choice, the glasses quite unprotected,

SANDWICHES CALL FOR CARE
Hostess Should Make Every Attempt
to Master Art, for the Satisfac-
ton 1t Will Give.

The hostess who has mastered the
art of making good sandwiches has
gone far toward mastering the art of
entertaining, for any social gathering
where refreshments are served lacks
distinction unless it offers at least
one kind of sandwich a little better
than any other sandwich served at
similar entertainment.
Sandwiches should be good to look
at and good to taste Both requisites
demand that all materials used in
making them should be fresh, care
fully prepared and of the best quality
Cress, lettuce and any other sort of
green for sandwich filling should be
carefully cleaned and crisped on ice
for several hours before using. Meat
should be freshly cooked and freed
from all fat, gristle and grease Bread
should be fresh, but firm, and thinly
cut. Gutter should be of just the
ere my consistency to make it spread
easily, not SO hard as to be lumpy nor
SO soft as to be oily.
Cutters in various fancy shapes
should be part OF every sandwich
makers outfit. Hearts and triangles
circles and diamonds are among the
most effective shapes. When fancy
cutters are not used the sandwich
should be pressed firmly together, the
crusts nicely trimmed, and the square
cut either in long, thin strips or
o-agonally across to make two triangle
shaped sandwiches.
Cream buffers of various sorts help
give sandwiches the distinctive tastes
which whet the appetite and make
every one wonder what the sandwich
is made Of To make these buffers
cream ordinary butter and mix with 4.
either finely chopped olives, water
cress or parsley, finely grated horse
radish or cheese, or bit of anchovy
or other fish paste. Combine these
various buffers with filings which
blend with them in flavor and the re-
suit is always satisfactory.

Cevlon Tea.


Tea plantations in Ceylon have been
in existence only 80 years, yet the an
nual exports of black tea amount to
nearly $20,000,000 in value. Formerly
coffee constituted Ceylon's main in
dustry, but after disease of the plant
in 1880 its cultivation was discontin-
ued. Many planters, however, re-
couped themselves by tea and rubber.
Thanks chiefly to the former article.
the islands old prosperity revived. To
day Ceylon boasts 1,500 plantations.
Plant necessary to tea cultivation is
costly but very labor-saving. The
work itself is not hard: only the eli
mate makes it irksome. What is
wanted mainly of employees is to
watch mancinery and feed it from the
stock of tea leaves awaiting treat
ment. The workers are not Sing
halese, but natives of southern India.
A laborer's wages vary from eight to
sixteen cents day, while foreman's
salary averages $500 month.-Har-

CHlLD'S FACE ALL RED SPOTS

632 N. 9Th St., Terre Haute, Ind
my little nephew, a boy OF four
years, had breaking out on his face.
It was little red spots at first, then
he would rub and scratch and water
blisters would form, and wherever the
water would run another would come
until his face was covered with them.
He would cry and fret. His mother
got some medicine, but 1t did not do
any good. He would scream and cry
and say it hurt. We hardly knew him,
his little face was all red spots and
blisters. So I begged him to let me
put some Cuticura Ointment on them.
The next morning I made a strong
soap suds with Cuticura Soap and
washed his face IN the warm suds.
The little b1isters burst by pressing
the cloth on them. After I had his
face washed, put the Cuticura Oint-
ment on and in a short time his little
face was all red and dry. kept using
the Cuticura Soap and putting on the
Cuticura Ointment and his face got as
well and it did not leave a scar. He
was entirely cured in about one week

will stop itself. That is the only proper
way to stop a cough.
Occasionally cough depends upon an
irritable condition of the larynx or bron-

The problem of stopping such a cough
IS slightly different one. Even in those

be added.
