Remark Hard to Explain.

Everyone had gathered in the draw E room after dinner, and all were T ling contented with themselves as tfl as at peace with the outside world. when 1t was suggested as pas time that every lady should state the gift she most coveted. and the posses sion of which she would most prize. With prompt acquiescence each regis tered her choice Mrs. Wellman wished tcr the most exquisite jewels extant. Mrs. King desired to be the best dressed woman in society, Mrs. Dray- ton preferred to own the handsomest turnouts, while Mrs. Smith craved popularity.

A spell of cold, damp weather is always followed by fine crop of kid ney troubles and backache.
 Colds and chills damage the kid neys. Other troubles common to win ter weather are just as bad. Grip, ton. silitis, quinsy, pneumonia or any other infectious disease hurts the kidneys by overlooking the blood with poisons. The kidneys get worn, weak and ln- famed trying to work it off.
 It isn't hard to strengthen weak kidneys though, if you act quickly. At the first sign of backache, dizzy spells, headaches, loss of weight, nerv- ousness, depression and painful, irreg- ular kidney action, start using Doan' s Kidney Pills. Rest the kidneys by simple eating. avoidance of overworK and worry, and getting more rest and sleep. A milk diet is fine.

BILIOUS, HEADACHY,
 SICK "CASCARETS"
Gently cleanse your liver and sluggish bowels while
 you sleep.
Get a 10-cent box.

Sick headache, biliousness, dizzi- ness, coated tongue, foul taste and foul breath-always trace them to torpid liver; delayed. fermenting food in the bowels or sour, gassy stomach.
 Poisonous matter clogged in the in- testines, instead of being cast out of the system is re-absorbed into the blood. When this poison reaches the delicate brain tissue it causes con- ,gestion and that dull. throbbing. sick ening headache
 Cascarets immediately cleanse the stomach, remove the sour, undigested food and foul gases, take the excess bile from the liver and carry out all the constipated waste matter and poisons in the bowels.
 A Cascaret tonight will surely straighten you out by morning. They work while you sleep-a 10-cent box from your druggist means your head clear. stomach sweet and your liver and bowels regular for months. Adv.

THE DOCTORS WIFE Aorees With Him About Food.

A trained nurse says: 'In the prac- tice of my profession have found so many points in favor of Grape-Nuts food that unhesitatingly recommend 1t to all my patients.
 Tt is delicate and pleasing to the palate Gan essential in food for the sick and can be adapted to all ages, being softened with milk or cream for babies or the aged when deficiency of teeth renders mastication impossible. For fever patients or those on liquid diet l find Grape-Nuts and albumen water very nourishing and refreshing.
 This recipe is my own idea and Is made as follows: Soak teaspoonful of Grape-Nuts in a glass of water for an hour, strain and serve with the beaten white of an egg and spoonful of fruit juice for navouring. This af- lords great deal of nourishment that even the weakest stomach can assimi- late without any distress.
 My husband Is a physician and he uses Grape-Nuts himself and orders it many times for his patients.
 Personally regard a dish of Grape Nuts with fresh or stewed fruit as the ideal breakfast for anyone-well or sick"
 In stomach trouble, nervous prostra- tion, etc. Today trial of Grape-Nuts will usually work wonders toward nourishing and rebuilding and in this way end the trouble. Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek. Mich.

Given Up to Die Helpless With Agonizing
 Kidney Ills

Ciairville Simoneau, Barton, La, says. For a number of years l suffered greatly from kidney disease. gradually ran down until finally I given up to die I was helpless and my limbs were swollen to twice their natural size. in fact, was bloated all over My hands and feet and also my ankles were puned up until the skin was tense. Doctors who attended me were afraid that dropsy would reach my heart, but nothing they could do helped me. My back pained greatly and the kidney se- cretions were scanty in passage and unnat- uraI. At last the doctors gave me up and 1t was then that I was told to try Doans Kidney Pills. I did and the effect was ai- most a miracle. The bloating and swelling commenced to go down and as l continued taking this medicine I felt better in every way. After had taken five boxes of Doans Kidney Pills I was well. That was over four years ago and since then I haven't suf- fered in the least"

BREAD DRESSING FOR STEAK
Many Prefer Meat Prepared in a Casserole to That Broiled in
 the Regular Way.

If you wish to stuff a flank steak use bread dressing; use it with veg etables and small quantity of liquid in a casserole. If you do not own one iand you should in these times of high prices) use any tightly covered dish. Be sure it is tight so the steam cannot escape.
 Bread Stuffins.-Two cupfuls soft bread crumbs, one-half cupful butter melted in one-third cupfu hot water or milk, onequarter teaspoonful pow dered sweet herbs or spiced poultry. seasoning, one beaten egg. Mix the ingredients together thoroughly The bread should be 24 hours old and taken from the center of the loaf. The seasoning is a matter of indi- vidual taste, so you can use the above quantities or suit your taste. The egg may be omitted If the flank is to be eaten hot, but will slice better when cold if egg is used. Cracker crumbs give a drier stuffing.
 Spread your flank steak with above and roll tightly. Fry out some suet and then brown the flank so as to hold the juices. Put in casserole, add little water and when half done sea- son with salt and pepper, chopped onions and plenty of fine minced vege- tables or rice. whichever you may prefer. The flank is quite juicy, so you will need but little water. It lackc flavor So tho hipb sDires and vegetables make up what the flank lacks. It is much better this way than broiled as regular steak
