(Note by the editor-with apologies fol-
the inability Of the Democrat to use &C
cented letters.-The above serves to cal
attention to a manifest misuse of terms.
It can not be called wrong to write oil
Mrs. Mary Ann Currier, born Weston,
or Mrs. Mary Ann Currier, nee Weston
between the two forms of expression the
question is simply of good usage. But
it is mauifestly an improperly to write
of Mrs. Mary Aun Currier, born Mary
Ann Weston, and 1t would be equally
improper to use the French word in
place of born. She was not born Mary
Ann Weston, but all the name except the
Weston was bestowed upon her after
birth. 1t may be audacious thus to
criticise that fount of English uudetiled
the Boston Transcript, but even the bes
authorities sometimes Iod.)

TONIGHT! TAKE A
 "CASCARET" SURE
NO SICK HEADACHE, BILIOUS STOMACH, COATED TONGUE OR cONsTlPATED BOWELS
 BY MORNING.

Turn the raseals out-uhe head ache, the biliousness, the indigestion, the sick. sour stomach and foul gas.
 es-turn them out tonight and keep them out with Cascarets. Millions of men and women take a Cascaret now and then and never know the misery caused by lazy liver, clogged bowels or an upset stomach.
 Don't put in another day Of dis. tress Let Cascarets cleanse and reg ulate your stomach: remove the sour,
 undigested and fermenting food and that misery-making gas; take the ex- cess of the system all the constipated
 waste matter and poison in the in- testines and bowels. Then you will feel great.
 A Cascaret tonight will surely straighten you out by morning. They work while you sleep. A 10-eent box from any drug store means clear head, sweet stomach and clean
 healthy liver and bowel action foI
 months. Children love to take Gas carets because they taste good never gripe or sicken.

The object of working butter is
TO uniformly distribute the salt and
give the butter a plastic consis-
tency. The old primitive method
OF working butter by the hands is
still III vogue IN some places. It IS
very undesirable in all cases TO get
the hands directly i'll contact with
the butter. 1t is not only highly
unsanitary. but it spoils both the
grain OF the butter and its appear
ance. When the hands come in
contact with the butter it melts,
making it oily and greasy, at the
same time giving it dead, dirty
grey color. Many farmers making
only small amount Of butter use
"a bowl or tray and paddle, which
is great deal better than using
the hands. J.,
