cit looked like everything had
failed to help me, and I had about
given up all hope when one day my
husband brought a bottle of Tanlac
home with him and asked me to take
it. He said he had been reading and
hearing lot of good things about it,
and didn't see any reason why it
shouldn't help me. I was confined
to my rolling chair when | began
taking it.
'Do I look an invalid now? I
certainly don't feel like one, and 1

When Dr. e. B. Elder, the TanIac
representative, called at Mrs Will

Street, her husband was present and
added much to the grateful little
woman's testimony. YES he said,
''its simply wonderful the way this
medicine acted and no one is more
thankful than [ am for what it has
done for her. She told me herself
a few months ago that she didn't
think she could live and I thought
the same thing, for was told by two
reputable doctors right here in At

Romance Is Spoiled.

There is mound of earth in st.
Paul's church, at New York, that ia
oyergrown with long, coarse grass and
looks like an unRempt, unmarked
grave. Groups Of young women from
Office buildings gather in that quiet
3art of the churchyard every day at
the noon hour to eat their lunches.
Among these regular frequenters OF
the place there has been much specula-
ton as to the meaning of this new
grave and why it should be so neg
lected. All sorts of romantic stories
have been woven about it by the i'm
aginative tales of family feuds, disap-
pointed love and the like. Yesterday
workman wheeled a barrow UP to
this mound and began shoveling some
Of i. n to cart it away. There was ex-
element Immediately among the
luncheon parties. "Whose tomb ia
this?" asked one Of the lunchers.
breathlessly. The man looked puzzled
for G moment and then grinned. "This
amt no grave. MISS" he answered.
:'This is just heap Of mold that we
use to fill up any place that caves in"
And thus romance was spoiled.

1t is well worth any ones time to
visit the Sixth avenue school 10 see
the work done by the children in the
"a" class of the first grade.
To see these little tots working,
with the great desire showing in their
innocent faces to do their work as we'll
as it can be done is truly an inspira-
ton. The browning feat Of their la
Dor is the display on the sand table
depicting scene in Holland.
On this table, four feet by seven
feet, are shown wonderful houses with
red roofs, churches having art glass
windows, ships at sea, canals and ca
hal boats, tug boats loaded with but
tr, cheese and vegetables (the latter
moulded Of clay) stores, turning wind
mills, cows, dykes, with men patroll-
ing them, the sea which is higher
than the land, and all this work which
as whole impresses the observer
with it's great neatness is truly mar
velous to behold and all of it is made
by the hands Of the little pupils.
These little pupils know lot about
their work. They know that in Hol-
land the people are very neat, that
they scrub their houses both inside
and out, that they scrub even the
COWS each day and hang the tails in
a ring suspended from the ceiling
while being MIXED, thus safeguard
ing the sanitary condition of the milk
They know the people raise vege-
tables for the market, sending them
with the butter and cheese across the
sea to be sold.
They know why the wind mills are
there; also why trees are planted or
the dykes. They not only know this
about Holland but are able to tell you
about it in way that is simply won
derful. These little children are just
babies, seven years ago they weren't
here at all, hadn't even started tc
live, now they not only live, but work
as we'll, and are able to make any
visitor to their room marvel at the
work of their tiny hands.
This display made of sand, clay
twigs and paper, is truly a credit to
the class, also the teacher, who BY
her we'll guided instruction is mould
ing their minds into truths they will
never forget.

From Force Of Habit.

A woman walked up to the teller In
the ladies' department of New York
trust company and handed in at the
window check made payable to her
order for 81. The teller pushed it
back to her. asking her to indorse It.
When she had written the indorse-
ment she fumbled in her pocketbook
and took from it a SIS bill, which she
pushed across the slide to him with
the check, saying "takc it out of that. F"
"Wny madam" he remarked, "this
calls for you to receive 81, not to pay
It," "Oh," she replied YEARLY, II get
so used to paying bills that I didn't

Look and Feel
Clean, Sweet and
Fresh Every Day
Drink a glass of real hot water
before breakfast to wash
out polsons.

Life is not merely to live, but to
live well, eat well, digest we'll, work
we'll, sleep well, look well. What a
glorious condition to attain, and yet
how very easy it is if one will only
adopt the morning inside bath.
Folks who are accustomed to feel
dull and heavy when they arise, split
ting headache, stuffy from cold, foul
tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach,
can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy
by opening the sluices of the system
each morning and flushing out the
whole Of the internal poisonous stag
nant matter.
Everyone. whether ailing, sick or
well, should, each morning, before
breakfast, drink glass Of real hot
water with a teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it to wash from the
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the
previous days indigestible waste,
sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus
cleansing, sweetening and purifying
the entire alimentary canal before
putting more food into the stomach.
The action Of hot water and limestone
phosphate on an empty stomach is
wonderfully invigorating. 1t cleans
out all the sour lamentations, gases
waste and acidity and gives one a
splendid appetite for breakfast. While
you are enjoying your breakfast the
water and phosphate is quietly ex-
tracing large volume of water from
the blood and getting ready for a
thorough flushing of all the inside
organs.
The millions of people who are
bothered with constipation, bilious
spells, stomach trouble, rheumatism
others who have sallow skins, blooe
disorders and sickly compilations are
uged to get a quarter pound of lime.

LAUGH Is Effective Weapon,

An optimist, woman who has the
best of reasons to regard fate unkinG.
ly, has found laugh the best weapon
with which to meet calamity. She
laughs when bit of china, dear to her
heart, comes to grief, and can even
achieve something like laugh when
she earns of the treachery of a friend
Her optimism is the sole Hold she has
on life, for unusual nerve strain would
shorten her life II it did not result in
immediate death. The difficulty Of
achieving philosophy under better con-
ditions is beyond some of us, and here
Is woman who has had the courage
to laugh in the face Of circumstances
that might well leave her sore and
