eATARRH LEADS
 TO CONSUMPTION

Catarrh is as much a blood dis ease as scrofula or rheumatism. Ii may be relieved, but it cannot be removed by simply local treatment. It breaks down the general health, weakens the lung tissues, and leads to consumption.
 Hood s Sarsaparilla is so sue cessful in the treatment of catsrTh that it is known as the best remedy for this disease. It puriies the blood. Ask your druggist for 1t.

It has been brought to the at tention of the racing committee that the fair ought to have a 2.10 class. with a purse of t500, which would. in the natural order of things. get a car load of real fast nags to Norwich. Stafford had a $500 race every day last year, and the thing paid. Whitman tic will have no fair this year. for the grounds have been cut up to be used for other purposes: but last year the Thread City management put on a 2.11 class, with generous money for the winners, and that 2.11 class got out some extra good horses and the track record, never very low until 1913, went down.

FIRELESS COOKER MADE
FROM A DISUSED TRUNK

Take an old trunk and paste on the
inner sides and bottom several layers
of paper Put about four inches OF
excelsior over the bottom, then ar
range your cooking utensils on the
excelsior, leaving about three inches
OF space between.
Work more excelsior in compactly
around them, so that the receptacles
can be put in and taken out without
celsior-stuffed pillow of thin cloth
three inches thick and the length and
breadth of the trunk, to fit snugly
over the pots. The excelsior around
the pots should come up even with
the tops, so that the pillow will fit
snugly against ii everywhere. Put a
wooden blanket over the pillow, fold
ed to fit inside the trunk. Let down
the trunk lid and your cooker is COM
plete, says the Washington Sunday
Star.
Start your pots Of meats and vege-
tables, cereals, etc, to boiling well on
the range, then set them into your
fireless cooker quickly and cover them
and they will boil slowly until ten
der. Anything that stews or boils can
be cooked in this flreless cooker. All
dried fruits are far superior when
cooked this way than they are by the
usual method
OF course, you can buy fireless cook
ers at various prices that will do
much more than this one in the way
of baking and broiling, but this home
made one will be a great help to you
in your summer cooking, leaving you
free for recreation, and you can know
that when mealtime comes the food
will be we'll done, piping hot and bet
ter favored than when cooked on the
range as all the fiavors are retained
by this air. tight cooker.

At a Wedding Reception
Dear Miss Doom:

Dear Miss Doom:
VIII you please inform me the
correct way to seat the bridal party
at wedding reception. including
the minister?
Thanking you in advance, am
ANXIOUS.
While congratulations are being
received the bride stands at the
right of the bridegroom, the maid
of honor next to the bride; the
bridesmaids are on each side, one
in advance of the other. The best
man and ushers assist in escorting
guests forward to receive con-
gratulations The minister has no
part in the reception.
At seated breakfast or supper
the bride is usually at one end of
the table, the bridegroom at the
other end, the best man on the
brides right, the maid Of honor at
the right of the bridegroom. Or
the bride and bridegroom may sit
at the head of the taRle, or at the
centre of it on one side, the bride
at the right of the bridegroom.
There is no fixed rule. The ushers
and bridesmaids are ranged on
either side. At one table are placed
the parents of the bride and BRIDE
groom with other near relatives
and the clergyman who officiated
at the service.

have this thing down to a science.
We can change tires with the mini
mum of energy and minutes"
And they certainly did the prettiest
bit of team work I'd ever seen, with
me begging to help and being shunted
out of the way as an obstacle to their
practiced skill
Mary's Helpful Offer.
They both slipped into trouble
Coats which were already sufficient
ly dirty to be protection against the
dirt. Nan unstrapped another shoe
while Ned was fussing with the valve.
Next Nan opened the tool-box and
hurried around with the necessary
tire tools, and while Ned, whistling,
was removing the shoe, my lady
opened the hood of the engine, re-
moved a spark plug with queer
looking wrench and hitched up a
power pump.
There was nothing that she did that
was tax on her strength, but it
surely was helpful, and while l was
changing my tire l had a fieeting wish
that Mary was not quite SO pretty and
just a grain more useful. Mary, I
know, would consider it indicate to
change a tire, and Mary is perfectly
willing to fall back upon the privil-
eyes of her sex when there's work to
be done.
Through yet. Peter?" she called
sweetly.
I didn't answer right away for |
was pretty cranky. 1t had taken me
an hour to change tires and I was
still pumping with a futile little hand
pump that filed the tire with mad
dening slowness.
isis there anything at all / can
do to help?" was Mary's next ques-
ton, now that the work was quite
done. l said In cross between a
growl and a mutter that there
wasn't.
"One thing is certain" said as
packed up and climbed back into the
car, 1.-THE first thing r buy for this
car is a power pump that can be OPP
Grated by the engine. It's devilish
grind to pump up a tire
That was the beginning of the buy
ing What Mary didn't think of as a
necessary addition to the car in the
days to come, l did.

Miss Dalrymple. Her character stud
les will not appear unfamiliar to the

the fortunes of Peter with interest.
The Buying Starts.
My father-in-law had warned me
that the tires on the car were old and
therefore Indispensable. On the way
home that first afternoon we had the
ear I discovered the truth of his
warning.
Peter" said my wife, whats that
queer tapping? Hear it? Is it in the
engine?"
l had been conscious of it for
some time and had been purposely
ignoring it. ITO tell you the truth"
| admitted. 81 feel fairly sure it's a
fiat tire
why not get out and look?"
| admitted this might be sensible
proceeding and obeyed the suggestion.
The right-hand tire on the front wheel
was indeed very fiat. I sighed and
opened the tool box.
An Efficient Team.
Such are the joys" said I, "of mo-
toring. Here's where [ change tire"
Evidently the tires had not been off
for some time or / went about it awk-

quick detachable rings which held
the tire in place refused to come off.

Mary made no effort to assist. Not

The nursery paper was wonderful.
The border was at the bottom in

The human body appears more
complex the more closely we ex-
anime it, and the presence within 1t
of the secretions known as engines
or ferments, hormones or bodies
whose only function is apparently to
excite other secretions, and anti
toxins or substances which act as
antidotes to poisons, would have been
thought incredible by our fore
fathers. Yet that they really form
part of the living body can no more
be doubted than that they play a
prominent and a beneficent part in
our daily life. They are, however,
all organic compounds with a very
complicated molecule, and, so far as
we know, can only be manufactured
by the subtle chemistry of the body
itself.
Lately it has come to our knowledge
that the body contains certain inor-
ganic substances, metals and ele-
ments of comparatively rare occur

Corset Changes to Come

The present box effect of corsets is
said to be doomed, and, with whispers
in the air of changes, the following
has been gathered:
Corsets will soon be cut higher In
the bust and shorter in the skirt,
and the normal waist line will be
visible, though none of the changes
is to be radical, just a gentle moving
along to get women into the habit
of having a waist line again, says an
exchange.
The general corset business is said
to have made distinctive gains dur
ing the past year. The demand is
veering to a better, higher priced
class of goods.
There's a new fabric that gives with
every action of the body and yet
never stretches crosswise. 1t will
stretch lengthwise. however, and al
low free, graceful movements for the
wearer and yet does not require
many bones.
