Color schemes In Rooms.

When following out color scheme
in furnishing room n little touch OF
an entirely different but harmonizing
color produces an excellent effect. This
was brought out by professional dec
orator who was discussing the furnish
ings of her own home.
One room which was furnished in
green and had green velours couch
cover was especially noteworthy. THE
room needs something to break the
monotony," she said, "and some pill
lows with bit of old rose coloring
will do it.
A bedroom where the color scheme
is blue and white is attractive, but re-
quires another color to give It warmth.
A straight color scheme is easy
enough for any one to carry out, but 1t
calls for considerable skill to make it
distinctive, as in the practical applica-
ton Of little variety is usually neces-
sary to make the furnishings really
charming.-Good Health.

Don't Be Radical.

The sooner young folks learn not to
be radical the sooner they will find
themselves floating serenely down the
stream of life without friction. To be
radical takes lots Of trouble; you have
to be continually ripping Off veneers,
scratching surfaces, engaging in origi-
nal research, applying acid tests. lifting
lids, making analyses. tearing off masks,
demanding proof and so on illimitahly.
But it is all pernicious activity. The
leaders and makers and sellers of earth
fix things up so that they will seem to
be so and so; their leadership and their
fame and their profits depend upon our
being perfectly credulous and accepting
things for what they seem. Why, then,
ask embarrassing questions and thus
incur the everlasting i'll will of those
who are trying to hoodwink us? 1t is
much better to take things as they
cope paying cash, of course) and be
humbly grateful.-Life

HOT WATER THE
BEST LIVER AND
BOWEL MEDICINE
Says Glass of Hot Water Before Break
fast Washes Poisons from
System

Physicians the world over recommend
the inside bath, claiming this is of vastly
more Importance than outside cleanli-
ness, because the skin pores do not alb
sorb impurities into the blood, causing i'll
health, while the pores in the ten yards
OF bowels do.
Men and women are urged to drink
each morning before breakfast glass of
hot water with teaspoonful of lime
stone phosphate in it, as harmless
means of helping to wash from the stom-
ach, liver, kidneys and bowels the previ-
Gus days indigestible material, poisons,
sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing
sweetening and purifying the entire ali
mentary canal before putting more food
into the stomach.
just as soap and hot water cleanse and
freshen the skin, so hot water and lime
stone phosphate act ON the eliminative
organs.
Those who wake up with bad breath,
coated tongue, nasty taste or have a dull,
aching head, sallow complexion, acid
stomach others who are subject to bill
ious attacks or constipation, should OBJ
tain a quarter pound of limestone phos-
phate at the drug store This will cost
very little but is sufficient to demon
strate the value of inside bathing. Those
who continue it each morning are assured
of pronounced results, both in regard to
health and apprenticeship.

PERSONAL FLAGS.
Special Emblems For the President and
Other officials.


Until 1881 the president of the Unit.
ed States had no personal flag. his
presence on board an American naval
vessel being indicated by hosting the
national emblem at the bead OF the
mainmast. and the garrison flag, re-
served for times of special ceremony,
was displayed on the staff at army
posts whenever he visited them.
The need OF a special flag for the
president was frequently felt, especial
ly when visiting royalty was entertain
ed in this country. In August, 1882.
it was directed by the secretary Of the
navy that "the flag or the president OF
the United States shall consist OF
blue ground. with the arms of the
United States in the center. The flag
shall be hoisted at the mainmast OF
the vessel of war while the president
is on board and shall be carried in the
bow of his boat"
For years after this the national flag
was used for indicating the presence
of the vice president or OF an expresi-
dent, but this use was more or less
confusing, and, besides. it was argued,
the stars and stripes properly stand.
for the nation rather than any in
dividual. For this reason a special flag
for the vice president was adopted
This flag is the same in design as the
presidents naval blue flag, except that
the national coat of arms Is emblazon-
ed on white field on it. Cabinet otfi-
GERS and the assistant secretaries of
some of the executive departments also
have distinctive hags.-Cleyeland Plain
