You can guess what kind of people live there. Sometimes both front and back yards correspond and are wrecks alike. You can easily place the owners. Sometimes both front and back yards show the utmost care and attention and it is hard to tell which is the cleaner. You have no trouble in classifying the people who live here. If either the front or back yard must be neglected. friends, let it be the front one. Don't try to present a Queen Ann front with a Mary Ann back. An ill kept back yard is dangerous and a menace to good health.

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all it's stages, and that is Catarrh. Catarrh being a con- stitutional disease, requires a consti, tutlonal treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in do ng its work. The proprietors have so much faith in it's curative powers of Halls Catarrh Cure that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that 1t fails to cure. Send for list of testi- moniaIs.

HER RICH REWARD
Towns Most Gifted Cook Wins
Envy Of Other Women.
There 10 No Material Compensation for
Long Hours She Spends With
Rolling Pin and Oven.

a. There Is in every small town some
woman whose cooking Is absolute wiz.
ardry itself. Her home W lacks for
Sunday company" She Is always In
demand at church or lodge suppers,
too.
Mrs. George Sparks was that sort OF
woman. While she could cook with an
artists skill most any dish known to
the small-town housewife, pumpkin pie
vas her especial forte. Whenever the
Ladies' Aid sbclety advertised a supper
and carefully stated that Mrs. George
Sparks would contribute some of her
justly famed pumpkin pies, an overflow
attendance was certain. What a strug-
gle always followed the bringing forth
IF those golden brown pumpkin pies!
The very sight of them was enough to
make any man In the town wet his lips
with anticipatory delight. The crusts
we're always short TO just the right
legree of perfect JOY and the filling
was like ambrOsia the gods had care
lessly left at the disposal of an unde-
serving mankind.
Mrs. Sparks never had the expert
ence of other members of the Ladies'
Aid society, who often had some of
their viands left for the home folk to
consume. Her pies were all slicked up
in n remarkably brief time after they
made their appearance. Pies like Mrs.
George Sparks were never made to be
eaten with n fork-they were made for
a large, liberal, thick piece to be
grasped gently in the palm of the left
nand and thereby to be conveyed to the
eagerly waiting mouth.
None Of the men, except the mayor
and the minister ever was able to curb
his impatient appetite sufficiently to
permit him to ply n fork at such times.
The utter and manifest delight with
which every man in town fell upon
those golden pies brought many a bale
full glance from other and less favored
members of the Ladies' Aid society.
But there was no man In town who
wasn't willing to have a %troublous ses-
sion at home for the sake of a second
piece of one of those pies. And there
was probably not another man In town
who didn't at times envy George
Sparks and didn't resent that worthy
mans self-satisfied and contented de-
meanOr.
And Mrs. George Sparks, what did
she get in return for those hours she
spent with the rolling pin, the dough
pan and the cooking stove oven? She
w got a cent for all the hundreds
of perfect pies with which she supplied
the hungry tOwnsmen. But there
wasn't a woman in town who wouldn't
have undergone an equal amount Of la
Dor and %self-denial gladly to have re-
ceived Mrs. George Sparks reward
that of knowing she could do some
thing better than any other mi In
town and knowing that they, too, were
ware Of the fact.

The Whole THING.

"Certain writer's keep deriding our
.gnoranceeo f Russia" said Professor
Pate. g" have interviewed a number
of my fellow citizens, and l find that
almost without exception they believe
themselves thoroughly posted. In the
school readers of their youth they
learned that the chief business of Rus
sian gentlemen has long been standing
up in wildly careering sledges, each
drawn by three horses abreast, and
pouring the whip to the steeds with
n hand, while flinging small children
to ravening wolves with the other.
Beyond that, according to the average
American, nothing much ever hap
pened in Russia until the country
went bone-dry and dethroned the car.
II we do not know 1t all, We think we
do, which is fully rs satisfactory to
the most Of us."-Kansas City Star.

Elephants Halt Train.

When a circus train on the South.
ern Pacific came to an involuntary
stop near Galveston not long ago, In
vestigation by the engineer revealed
the cause, 1t is reported, in n carload
Of elephants right behind the water
tank of the engine tender. Being
athirst and dusty, the intelligent ami
mails had reached with their trunks
through the end window of the car
into the tank, and every drop of water
had gone to assuage elephantine thirst
and spray vast acres of dusty hide.
The elephant trainer was called. from
the caboOse to a consultation and
solved the problem Of moving the
stalled train by unloading the four Of
Tending elephants. who were then
nitched In tandem in front of the loco
motive and compelled to pull it for a
distance Of three miles along the
track to the nearest water supply,
where the tender was replenished.-

difficulty Of avoiding the commonplace,
because a large proportion Of the buy

Not all little black hats are con-

Shapes that are daring, or even a bit
