II you have but a small city yard
give your child a foot or two for his
"very own" garden. Let him dig ii
up, prepare it, plant the seeds or pur-
chase plants out of his own spending
money. If he is interested in the gar
den it will be his special delight to
keep it weeded and In good condition.
allowing him to pick his own flowers
and do with them what he will. The
garden will be not only a pleasure,
but benefit.
One little boy who was allowed his
little patch when asked what he want
ed to plant in this wee garden, re-
piled, "Pansies. because they have such
sweet little faces" He was allowed to
buy half dozen plants and his great
est delight was to pick these flowers
and take them to his mother each
morning. OF course the stems were
short, but she fioated them in a glass
finger bowl.
His garden was always in beautiful
condition. One of his first duties in
the morning was to rake up the
ground, and the little watering can
was put to use at least twice a day.

Advice For Boy Scouts.

When starting Oh hike leave your
coat at home. advises |. w. Schmidt,
scoutmaster Of the boy scouts at Graf
ton, Pa. You don't need it while on
the move. If it rains it gets wet so
quickly that it is of little use and is
very heavy. When you get to camp.
If you are on an overnight hike, you
will take it off to cut frewood. A
sweater coat is far better. 1t packs
easily. you can use it to tie things in
and you can sleep in it If the weather
turns cold. AS to socks or stockings.
all authorities unite in claiming that
for hikes Of any distance wool is the
thing Wool absorbs the perspiration
or any chance dampness from the out
side and makes the best cushion to
preserve the foot from chatting.
Your shirt should be of flannel. not
cotton, silk or khaki. If you are going
to camp overnight and your flannel
shirt Is dripping with perspiration
change into Il sweater. and it may oc-
cur to you that it would be a good
plan to wash the shirt and have 1t
ready for the next day. If you do so
be careful not to wiring 1t out. Hang
1t up dripping wet. and 1t will not
shrink

From 10 to II each morning the lit
tie ones should romp and play out of
doors. If you have good sized yard
this may be used as a playground for
the children
In one corner have small seesaw.
In another part Of the yard have low
broad fence made from studding A
boy never tires of climbing on this and
seeing how well he can walk it. This
is a most excellent physical exercise.
Plan attractive plays that will give the
children strong muscles well under con-
troll and vigorous exercises that will
make the whole body healthy and give
self reliance for later life.
A shelter in the yard is most help
full. 1t may be rude, but will serve the
purpose of protection on very cold or
warm days 1t should have a large
window to allow the sun to light and
warm it, so that except on the severest
days it is really comfortable place
in which the youngsters can play.

Insects In the Ear,

Should an insect get into the ear Of
child or an adult Immediately pour
in a little olive oil. slightly warmed.
This at once suffocates the insect, and
1t can then be extracted by some one
who knows how. The buzzing of the
tiniest possible gnat is horrible torture
that need not be endured If there is
any kind of grease to be had. Melted
lard will answer or even butter, al
though the latter having salt in 1t is
not so good
Hot water will sometimes wash out
an insect, but the greatest care should
be taken to have it barely hot enough
to feel pleasant. The idea is to drown
the buzzing intruder as quickly as pos
sible. but the delicate inner membrane
should not be burned in the process.

Points
for
Mothers
Carriage PiIIowsIips.

The baby which is taken out for a
daily airing in its carriage needs sew
eral slips for the carriage pillow. A
covering that is dainty enough for any
baby can be made from two handker-
chiefs and few yards of valenciennes
lace. If one is skilled in embroidery
the word Baby may be embroidered
on one section of the pillow.
One handkerchief should be cut in
the remaining handkerchief should be
used for the center section. Measure
the sides Of the handkerchief in order
to find out just how many yards of
lace will be needed. The edge can be
finished with lace.
Baby pillows should always have the
center Of the pillow plain, SO when
selecting them choose design with a
border or corners to be embroidered.
Pad the petals and leaves with cotton
Of medium weight. When embroid-
ering the design use the satin stitch,
French knots and outlining stitch.
Punched work is effective and can
be used to its best advantage on dainty
articles for baby. Purchase a pillow
filed with down and cover it with
layer of linen or china silk. The slip
cover is made by attaching the ruffle
to the top and then stitching the bot
tom in position.
The hemstitched ruffle is easily laun-
dered and is particularly effective, and
a simple edglng of valenciennes lace is
also a good finish. The most attrac-
tive method of joining the ruffie to the
pillow is to finish it with narrow
beading.

SUPERFLUOUS HAIR
on
LADIES' FACES,
MOLES, BIRTHMARKS,
WARTS
and other
FACIAL BLEMISHES
removed by
ELECTRICITY

Superfuous hair on the face is
great trouble to many ladies that ar
so disfgured, for the much ADVERTISED
washes and pastes remove the hail
only in the level of the skin and leave
the roots untouched, as they can moi
penetrate to them.
In addition they irritate the sllir
so much that the hairs return more
frequent and courser.
The only way to remove hair per
manently is to destroy the papilla on
the bottom of the hair sack from
which the hair growA
The only way to reach this is by
means of the electric needle.
An electro-surgeon having many
years experience in this work will not
have as much as one per cent of re-
turns, caused by very crooked hair
sacks.
The little operation is practically
painless, causing only very slight
sensation.
OF course a great deal depends upon
it that the electro-surgeon has a per-
feet electric meter and current con-
troller, for without them the work
would be only guess work, and mex
perienced operators will often cause
marks by using too strong a current,
while if the current is not strong
enough the papilla is not destroyed
and the hair returns.
The medium voltage current is used
for this purpose.
DR.. Toel was one of the first sur
aeons who took up this work after
DIR. Hardaway of st. Louis invented
the process over thirty years ago.
In removing warts and moles DR..
Toel uses the same process where this
is best Indicated In other cases he
uses the low voltage current, while
in others yet he destroys the growth
with the very high voltage current.
These operations are entirely blood
less and cause scarcely any pain.
Ulcerations of the skin caused by
lupus or by cancer he usually removes
by the low voltage current, while in
some cases he uses the X Ray for it.
are removed by the same
processes, the choice of the operation
depending upon it if they are fiat or
in the shape of a tumor

l speciality of electrical operations

LATIN PHRASES.

A slip of the tongue is not
easily punishable.
Gross negligence is a fault;
gross fault is a fraud.
A maxim is so called because
its dignity is chiefest and its
authority the most certain and
because universally approved
by all.
Nothing is. perfect while some
thing remains to be done.
Nothing is invented and per-
fected at the same moment.
You are not to do evil that
good may come of it.
Often it is the new road. not
the old one, which deceives the
traveller.

sPENN'S APHORISMS.

Better say nothing than not to
the purpose.
In all debates let truth he thy
aim, not victory or an unjust in
terest, and endeavor to gain
rather than to expose thy an
tagonist.
1t is not enough that a good
thing be right if it be- not fit to
be done. If not prudent. though
just. it is not advisable. He that
loses by getting had better lose
than get.
knowledge is the treasure,
but judgment the treasurer, of a
wise man.
Patience and diligence. like
faith. remove mountains.
Seek not to be rich, but happy.
The one lies in bags. the other
in content. which wealth can
never give.
A man. like a watch. is to be
valued for his goings.
We should not be troubled for
what we cannot help; but, if it
was our fault, let it be so no
more. Amendment is repent
ance. if not reparation.-From
Fruits Of Solitude"

BUTTER WRAPPERS
MAKE THEM WORK,

You have noticed the handsome
labels on packages sent out by
leading manufacturers of crack
ers and other similar goods2 Of
course. you have. Nifty, eh?
Nice appearing labels help to
sell these goods. The label of
the National Biscuit Co. costs
a bunch of money, and if we in
clude the box, reaches a cost al
most equaling its contents.
DOES 1T PAY?
You may safely gamble that ii
does. A pretty package attracts
attention and smakes sales. You
know it-everybody knows 1t.
Well printed butter wrappers
do the same thing. We make
them. Butter wrappers in one or
more eolors. in quantities from
roo to 100000. and guarantee
the price. Let's talk il over.

Only the simplest of jewelry should
be worn by the tiny girl. She may
have an enamel locket swinging from
n slender gold or silver chain or a plat
mum pendant on platinum chain.
She may wear set of bar sash pins
in striped enamel or platinum, sur
rounded with seed pearls. but she
should not wear rings on her fingers,
nor bracelets. No sort Of ornament
should be seen on her hair bow. Boys
do not wear jewelry while in the short

The diminutive young lady whose
portrait is shown herewith was taking
a walk when the camera man snapped
her. She had hold of her fathers hand
and was skipping along in great glee.
Her father is T.. Sutfern Taller, well
known in society and business affairs.
The girls name is Betty, and she was
visiting the Piping Rock horse races
with her parents. 1t is unlikely that
Betty took much interest in the horses.
She was much more engrossed in play
ing with her little brother who is not
much older than she. Piping Rock is
situated on Long Island and is ia
nous resort of society folk. There are
held horse shows and races, mainly for
the amusement of the upper ten. In
winter Betty B. lives in New York, but
her summer home is at Newport.
