DIETING TO REDUCE WEIGHT
Lettuce, Dry Toast and Minced Beef
Employed by One Woman
Onions for the Complexion.

A woman who wished to reduce her
weight says that she has done so by
subsisting almost solely on lettuce,
dry toast and minced beef.
A girl to improve her complexion
has partaken largely of onion soup,
and onions, too as vegetable. Some
one had told her that the South Sea
islanders, who have the best complex
ions in the world, live almost entirely
on onions; and, we'll, this girls COM
plexion has improved since her ex-
pertinent. Other women have started
deep breathing exercises at their open
windows, or shower baths followed by
the salt rub or are taking all kinds
of kitchen physics, such as barley and
lemon water, thin Cruel made with
cream Zone doctor describes this as
worth SIS cup" for the delicate), of
borage tea, camomile tea imbibed to
induce sleep the last thing at night.
And there is the pineapple juice
craze, which has also caught on.
certain American official has had a
hand in this with his verdict that IF
you have one foot in the grave, and
are a nervous wreck through attacks
of Indigestion, drink plenty of pine
apple juice. 1t is the very best tonic
that nature has ever offered man, and
is even better weapon against old
age and decreptitude than the sour
milk diet of the Bulgarian peasants.
There is a prejudice against the
sour milk, so much appreciated
abroad, and which tastes almost ex-
actly like junket. You simply pour
fresh milk into open soup plates and
stand them in a cool larder until the
milk has turned into jelly, which
happens pretty soon. Partaken OF
with little good cream, Drowned
brown bread crumbs and sugar, sour
milk is very wholesome; really some
thing of a delicacy, and hundreds of
peasants in mid-Europe simply live
and move and have their being upon
it.

A DOCTORS EXPERIENCE
Medicine Not Needed in This Case.

1t is hard to convince some people
that coffee does them an injury! They
lay their bad feelings to almost every
cause but the true and unsupported
one.
But the doctor knows. His wide ex-
perience has proven to him that, to
some systems, coffee is an insidious
poison that undermines the health.
Ask him if coffee is a cause of con-
stipation, stomach and nervous trou-
bles.
Il have been a coffee drinker all my
life, and when taken sick two years
ago with nervous prostration, the doc
tor said that my nervous system was
broken down and that would have to
give up coffee.
Il got so weak and shaky l could
not work, and reading an advertise
ment of Postum / asked my grocer if
he had any of it. He said, Yes and
that he used it in his family and it
was all it claimed to be.
so / quit coffee and commenced to
use Postum steadily, and in about two
weeks l could sleep better and get up
in the morning feeling fresh. In about
two months l began to gam flesh.

are of pure silk and durable as well
as supple in fold and graceful in line,
are admirable, built in this sort of
gown, and trimmed around the skirt
with bias folds and with groups of
little ruftles or corded shirred bands.
Often the fullness of the skirt is
slightly shirred over a cord at the
bottom, and this gives very quaint
look to the dress. Where the skirt
is corded and shirred, or ruf1ed, the
same idea must be carried out in the

KIDNEY DISEASES

There is only one medicine that really

to be just the remedy needed in thousands
upon thousands of even the most distress
ing cases. Swamp-Root, physicians pre-

quickly because its mild and immediate eff

Maanesia in Sea Shells.

Chemical analysis of starfishes, sea
urchins and crinoids, collected from
all parts Of the world, show that the
| skeletons of these animals contain
much magnesia. The amount present
is found to vary with the temperature
of the water in which the creatures
lived. The percentage of magnesia is
highest in those specimens that lived
In tropical waters and lowest in forms
from the icy geas of Greenland and
the Antarctic, with regular grada-
local effect of cold ocean currents
upon lite at the sea bottom. The in,
vestigations suggest that the skeie-
tons Of these animals have the compo-
Eition of the manganese limestone,
or dolomite, and it Is possible that
they furnish clues not only as to
the climatic conditions under which
limestones are now formed, but also
as to the temperatures OF the oceans

during different periods of geologic
