YOUNG AUNTS AND
 NIECE'S SORRY PLIGHT

o. OL. writes: My married sister and I went to Canada five years ago. She died. Children left. Not get ting along well, eldest girl was taken from father. I supported her, my niece, two years. Her father doesn't trouble about her. Can he have au- thority over her? She is sixteen, in service to leave place soon. Lady is unwilling to let her go. What am I, her aunt and guardian, to do?"
 By all means have a good talk with lady if niece is to leave. Inquire as to notice. In all places it differs. Look on the bright side. Heed not past dark clouds. Keep up hope. All is we'll that ends we'll.

DON'T CHANGE WHERE
 HEARTS ARE CONCERNED

P. R. G. writes: "I am young man past nineteen. Have love for two girls. One is from the country, natl lives in same city I do. Hence I am somewhat interested in the girl of the city. But she's independent, cares less for me than the country girl. Can love either dearly. Please advise me which one to go with.''
 It is a difficult love problem which a stranger can Scarcely solve. Usually it's best to test which really cares for you. Find out if you go away for a few years how much they would miss you, what are their views of love and matrimony? Then make your choice and abide by it. Don't be change able where hearts are concerned.

NUTRITION AND ECONOMY.

Many years ago I worked out the formula for a new bread mixture that would serve the purpose of much greater nutritional value, greater economy, better keeping qualities and at the same time be much more palatable than ordinary bakers or homemade bread. The flour mixture is as follows: Very finely ground whole wheat flour, [ pounds; rye flour, 2 pounds; barley flour, 1 pound. Mix these three Hours thoroughly by sitting several times and then mix according to your usual or favorite method of making whole wheat bread. The best method of making whole wheat bread you will find fully described on page 159 of your Home Health Club book, Vol. 5, also, many other methods of making nutritious and palatable bread with but little labor and much greater economy than common white bread.
 When you make up your dough for the bread mixture described above you will find the dough much differ ent from ordinary whole wheat dough. The barley flour gives it a different consistency. You must bake 1t longer than you would the ordinary loaf, in fact I would suggest that the first trial be made with very small quantity, say not more than one or two loaves. Do not have the oven too hot, but maintain steady heat When this bread looks to be well cooked on the outside the inside of the loaf will still appear to be sticky. Do not, however, imagine that the bread is spoiled. Wrap it up and put away in your bread box as soon as it is cool and at the end of week or even two weeks you will find 1t the most delicious bread you have ever eaten. 1t is good after only "A hours but better after it is a week old.
 Here are two more recipies for making delicious and economical be- cause more nutritious bread. These recipies are taken from my book, Vol. of the Home Health Club series. The first is called:
 ' Perfect Bread-Two small quarts of milk heated over hot water. When cool dissolve in it one cake of com- pressed yeast. Sift into crock four quarts of flour, four teaspoonfuls of
 
 Warm the flour if it is too cold. Make a hole in the middle of flour, put in the milk and yeast and knead we'll. Put in greased warm crock, let rise, grease on top. In the morning (early) work into this mixture one table spoonful of butter. Work into loaves, let rise, and bake.
 Aunt Jenny's Nut Bread is made after a recipe given to me by the wife of a wealthy manufacturer She de- lights in making this delicious bread herself and I assure you that it is the best have ever eaten. When my boys go to see Aunt Jennie" they always prefer the nut bread. It is made in the following simple man ner:
 Mix and stir together four cups of flour, four tablespoonfuls of sugar; four teaspoonfuls baking powder, one cupful of nuts, one and one-half cups of sweet milk. Let rise 20 minutes and bake one hour.

make life burden. I shall be very grateful for any help. M. M.
 (Answer) Judging from what you have had to say I am inclined to think that the majority of the symr- toms are due to what is called stric. ture of the sphincter-ani. The i'm mediate cause of piles is the tightness' of the internal rectal muscles which tightness seriously interferes with free circulation of the blood in the rectum. The remote cause of piles is that condition of the body which produces this tightness of the sphinc- ter muscles, the most common con- dition being chronic constipation, al- though chronic diarrhoea is a fre- quent cause as is also that form of bowel trouble in which constipation and diarrhoea alternate. Tn fact any bowel trouble which irritates the in- ternal rectal muscles may produce piles I say "'may" because many people have suffered from such dis eases for years without having piles, simply because their veins were in excellent conditions. Some people are peculiarly liable to ,overdistension of the veins of the lower Hmbs-vari- cose veins.
 A surgical operation is not neces- sary to cure this condition and the method of treatment would sug- gest would be a simple method of dilation by means of rectal dilators It is an absolute fact hemorrhoids cannot exist when the sphincter-ani is elastic and easily dilatable. In the face of such self evident facts, how absurd it is to attempt to cure this trouble without dilation. There is, however, additional treatment requir- ed in a condition of such long stand ing, for the purpose of overcoming the pain in the back, which is un-. doubtedly a reflex pain from the sanul trouble. You should have a prepara- tion of the tissue foods to take inter nally and use the old herb formula or colinsonia compound or horse chestnut ointment locally. This is prepared in the form of a cerate and can be put up in collapstble tubes, the tube having a point capable of being inserted into the rectum a couple of inches and by pressing the tube the cerate Is applied directly to the hemorrhoids or Piles and is in my opinion the most practical and best method of treatment for suc' cases that can be secured.

No Damage Was Done, Rum
ors Of Airships Carrying
Tons of Explosives

London, Aug. PA Zeppelin raided
the east coast of England shortly be-
fore midnight last night, the war Of

done and there were no casualties.
Last nights Zeppelin visit and 9th
ers Of the past few weeks are believed
to have been accommodating flignts for
the purpose of testing England s air
defense, in preparation for great aer-
ial attack.
For the last fortnight word has been
coming from Germany or the construc-
ton of huge Zeppelins, capable of
carrying several tons of explosives.
The German correspondents limited that
these sky dreadnaughts would move "a
gainst London and Paris during Sep
tember and October when weather con-
ditions~ are apt to be favorable. Yep
pelins found the weather so favorable
during September of last year that they
made five raids on England in that
month alone.
The first authentic information con
cerning the new Zeppelin giants was
given to England by Baron Montagu,
former vice chairman of the joint nav
al and military board IN speech last
night. The new dirigibles are $50
feet long, can travel SO miles an hour
and can ascend three miles to escape
shells from anti-aircrart guns. Each
can carry five tons of explosives. .
The Germans nave completed two OF
the new airships and will have four
others available for raids on England
in October, Baron Montagu said.

to feel clean inside; no sour bile to
coat your tongue and sicken your
tion, bilious attacks, sick headache,
colds, rheumatism or gassy, acid stom-
ach, you must battle on the inside like
you battle outside. This is vastly more
important, because the skin pores do
not absorb impurities into the blood,
while the bowel pores do, says we'll
known physician.
To keep these poisons and toxins
well flushed from the stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels, drink before break
fast each day, glass of hot water
with teaspoonful of limestone phos-
phate in it. This will cleanse, purify,
and ireshen the entire alimentary tract,
before putting more food into the ston-
ach.
Get quarter pound of limestone
phosphate from your pharmacist. 1t
is inexpensive and almost tasteless,
except a sourish twinge which is not
unpleasant. Drink phosphated hot
water every morning to rid your sys-
TEN of these vile poisons and toxins; !;
also to prevent their formation.
To feel like young folks feel; like
you felt before your blood, nerves and
