DECORATOR MUST BE ARTIST
10 Compelled to Have Wide knowl'

These Days.

Formerly the decorator or painter
merely had to deal with colors and
paints, and use them to the best ad.

compelled to have knowledge Of the

and %draperies, their adaptation, selec'

Magazine. He must make himself
familiar with all these things in or.

duce the effects which he may desire
to produce in the respective rooms Of
the modern house.
e. The decorating, and, to some ex.
tent, the furnishing, has become al.
most az much a part of his calcula.
ton and work as the mere painting.
He must make his interiors handsome
and inviting. The tenant when nego.
tiating for a first-class house Is no
longer content with bare, white walls
and plain floors. The demand in such
cases is for a house that is finished
according to the modern idea. Like
everything else in building construc.
tion, these perplex.ties are turned over
TO the architect to solve, but the mod.
ern metropolitan owner or manager
must take them into his business
along with brick, cement and steel.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result

The kidneys filter this acid from the

and sometimes very painful, this is
really n Of the most simple ailments
to overcome. Get about four ounces
Of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast. continue this
for two or three days. This will neu.
tralize the acids in the urine so It no

bladder and urinary organs which then
act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless.
and is made from the acid of grapes

and is used by thousands Of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caused
by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is
splendid for kidneys and use no

MAKE BACK YARD ATTRACTIVE
Cost Need Not Be Great II a Little
Care 10 Given to Proper
Expenditure.

Why not make the back yard just
az attractive, or even more attrac-
tive, than is the front lawn? It can
easily be done and at very small ex-
pense. Instead Of piles Of rubbish, an
unsightly ash barrel or two, a more
unsightly garbage receiver, unsightly
clothesline poles, ETC., take a little
time and spend a little money and
make the back yard lawn or garden
a place upon which you will like to
pass a portion of every day.
First, by an underground garbage re-
ceiver. which is sanitary, does not
take up space in the yard, keeps away
rodents, and Is a permanent invest
ment. The owe operates by a sim.

enfolks.
Keep the ash barrels in the cellar
or under the piazza, where they may
be screened from sight.
Then, instead of the clothesline
poles, bare and dirty, build a pergola
around them and cover it with climb
ing vines which will keep green all
summer; this will cost only a few dol
lars, and will add hundreds Of dol
lars worth to the beauty Of the back
yard.
Then, II you have two or three
shade trees there-and II you have
not, you had better have some trans.

that If God had not intended men to
drink booze, he would not have Gre
ated the wood that builds the saloon,
the brass in the fixtures, the quartz
melted into the goblet or the iron
which, molten, makes the stove. They
might carry the argument farther aud
say that II God had not intended men
to drink alcoho, that he would not
have created the mouth with which
to imbibe. Until it can be shown that
God created a mans tongue so that
he could lie and hands that he might
steal, there is not very much in the
argument that the Creator made corn
and rye that men might make alco.
hol therefrom for the purpose Of pois-
