Now They Are Not Afraid to Let the Children Run Outdoors
 Freely.

Every mother knows how hard it is to keep children, especially boys, in doors in bad weather. And yet if they run out it usually means croup or colds. Carthage. Mo-, mothers have solved this problem by keeping plenty of fresh air in the bedroom at night, and applying a hot application of Vick's Vap-O-Rub at the first sign of trouble.
 Vap-0-Rub really is a remarkable preparation. It is the invention of a North Carolina druggist, and is universally used in the South, but was introduced here only last winter.
 It comes in salye form and is. ap- piled externally over the throat and chest Externally-it acts like poul- tice or plaster, relieving the tightness and soreness. Internally-it acts like a vaporlamp, except that you do not have to keep the windows shut and the fresh air excluded as you do with the old fashioned vapor-lamp. Wick 8 is so made that the body heat re- leases the ingredients in the form of vapors. These vapors are inhaled with every breath through the air passages to the lungs, carrying the medication right to the affected parts.

Every body that is young enough, and some persons who are not, ap- pear to have adopted one of those many styles in hairdressing patterned after the Bobby" coiffure The Gas tie bob made popular by the famous dancer, requires a bare forehead with the hair drawn back and bob at each side.
 The Bobby coiffure is youthful look ing but sometimes unbecoming. Only the possessor of a beautiful brow looks well with it entirely uncovered To get over this difficulty the wearing of a narrow band of velvet or other ribbon bound about the forehead has come into vogue. Although not much may be said in favor of this particular style of hairdress so far as becoming ness is concerned. we may thank it for compelling beautiful finish and neatness in other styles.
 The hair may be waved or curled, or it may be dressed without either, but whatever else it is, fashion re- quires that the coiffure shall be beau tifully done, and finished looking
 For the more dignitied styles in hairdressing, the French twist, rolled softly and close to the head as shown in the picture given here, is used

WHEN KIDNEYS ACT BAD
 TAKE GLASS OF SALTS
Eat Less Meat If Kidneys Hurt or You Have Backache or Bladder Misery
 Meat Forms Uric Acid.

No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make mistake by flush ing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which clogs the kidney pores so they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trou- ble, nervousness, constipation, dizzi- ness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders come from sluggish kidneys.
 The moment you feel dull ache in the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or at tended by a sensation of sealding, get about four ounces of lad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water be- fore breakfast for few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This ia. nous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and has been used for genera tions to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to activity. also to neu- tralize the acids in urine so it no longer causes irritation, thus ending bladder disorders.
 lad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful efferves- cent lithia-water drink which all reg ular meat eaters should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and the blood pure, thereby avoiding SC rious kidney omplications.-Adv
