DEER-SkIN MONEY

The skin of a valuable species of
white deer which were in the royal
parks was at one time utilized as
money in China. 1t is related that
a certain Emperor by name On III,
was in want of money, and, calling
his treasurer to him, gave him to
understand that he must have funds.
Among the princes and the courtiers
of China at that time it was custom
airy when appearing before royalty
to cover their faces with a piece of
skin. The treasurer took advantage
of this. and a law was made forbid
ding the use of any other skin but
that of the white deer from the roy
al parks. Naturally princes and
others were anxious to secure these
skins, and of course they were sold
for high prices, thus securing for ON
ri the money he needed.

BOuS AND
CARBUNCLES ARE
WORSE IN WINTER

Every part of the body is de-
pendent upon the blood for
nourishment and strength, and
when for any cause this vital
stream becomes run down, it in
vites disease to enter. The liver
and kidneys, failing to receive
the proper nourishment from
the blood, grow inactive and
dull. and the waste and bodily
impurities that should pass off
through these channels OF ma
ture are left in the system to en-
courage some blood disorder
When the. blood is in this weak
ened condition, it should be
treated with a remedy that is
not only thorough, but gentle in
its action.
5. S. s., a purely vegetable
remedy, made OF roots, herbs
and barks, is just what is need
cd. 1t not only cleanses the
blood OF impurities and enriches
and strengthens it, but gently
builds up the entire system by
its fine tonic effect. S. S. S. re-
invigorates every part of the
body, gives tone and vigor to
the blood, and as it goes to the
different parts, carries health
and strength.
S. S. 5. acts promptly and
gives good results. 1t gives the
blood power to drive out rheu-
matism, catarrh, boils, sores and
ulcers, skin diseases and other
blood disorders. Get it at your
druggists and take it now.
Meanwhile, write US if you need
advice. Our Chief Medical Ad-
wiser is ready to tell you what
Your best treatment is. Address

Warren, you always throw cold
water on everything. Here | am all

to save few pennies and you laugh
about it and make me lose all the
confidence l had in it,"
Warren laughed, but not disagree
ably. IN tell you, let's wait till Mrs.

trouble is that you women get carried
away with the idea before YOU really

There are queer little glimpses of

Almost every one who writes to

Some of the condolences ! get are
so pathetic they move me to tears;
some are grim and tragic Yet on
the whole the effect Is not depreSS-
ing.
On the contrary, it is inspiring,
for the general impression | gain is
that most people are trying TO do
the very best they know how, and
that they are not going TO allow any
obstacle to daunt them il they can
find a way TO overcome it
They write to me on the chance
that l may offer some suggestion
that they can use; but back of this
I always feel that their chief reli-
ance is on thems elves-on that
American grit and ingenuity which
never admits itself beaten or per-
manently baffled.
The problem they present is usu-
ally a personal one and in the stat
ing OF ii one gets curious sidelights
on character and temperament But
more often than might be imagined
the question relates to some subject
of general welfare, or TO the predic-
ament in which another person is
involved and in which the writer is
only vicariously interested oh.

IF Your Blood Happens to Be
In Bad Condition, S. S, S.
Will Correct 1t Now.

The peculiar effect on the
blood caused by the rapid
changes OF winter, the chilly
blasts and dampnesS long con-
tinued, will undoubtedly have a
disastrous effect upon your sys-
TEN il your blood happens to be
in bad condition. You should
not allow yourself to run the
risk of suffering with boils and
carbuncles, you should not will
ingly walk into the snare of pain
and suffering of rheumatism or
catarrh when you can put your
blood in shape to prevent it by
the simple method OF taking
:. S. S. for a short period during
the fall.
Boils and carbunclcS are evil
dence OF diSordered blood. They
do not necessarily mean an in
herited taint, but they tell you
that your blood is poisoned -
that the life-giving stream that
should flow through your veins
pure, vigorous and healthy-has
become upset, maybe by over
eating and drinking, possibly by
constipation, stomach trouble or
uric acid. Whatever the cause,
your blood has become poisoned
and you are not going to know
what it is to feel entirely well
until the poison and impurities
have been washed from your
system. The blood, purified and
invigorated, will once more per
form its normal function of
keeping the body full of health
and vigor.

We'll, this evens us up peg"
Warren said jovially as Helen came
in late for dinner
Il know it dear, but really 1 didn't
mean to be late"
"Of course you didn't and I don't
mean to be, either. but l often am"
We'll, wait till tell you my per-
fectly splendid reason. and then you
will be proud of me-"
"A new scheme"
Yes, dear, a scheme for saving.
Isn't that great"
Certainly is, if it's possible to save
anything at all these days; tell me
any new plan that you have"
We'll, | shopped all morning and
! had lunch down town, and then /
dropped in to see Mrs. Stevens"
Il hope that she didn't give you
J the big idea?"
Why, Warren, what makes you
say that, dear?'
Nothing. Mrs Stevens is all right,
but you know what her schemes
are"
| why, Warren, you don't know
anything about her schemes"
! II know she's impracticable."
| Perhaps she is about some things,
but not about everything"
We'll, out with it; what is the new
/ scheme for saving?"
| We'll, dear, a wonderful thing
that Mrs. Stevens has discovered. A
process for making whole wheat
flour"
For making it?"
! Yes, you see, the white bread that
! we eat is very EXPENSIVE and Mrs.
| Stevens says that it is really simple
matter to make -four
And, pray, what does she know
about it?''
We'll, she doesn't know very
much" Helen admitted but the idea
! is splendid. You buy this little ma
chine and simply mill your own flour.
| That means that you make it your
self right out of the wheat"
Gee, whiz, what next? l should
think it would take days to make a
cupful
I for anyone who loves bread as you
| do, it will be splendid and a great
! economy"
And Mary is to mill the flour and
bake the bread?"
Yes, Mary has been willing to try
! her hand at baking ever since l have
had her. but | never thought it wise.
1t really wasted things, because you
| like your bread fresh and we had to
| bake so much at time that it was
never eaten up
How much is this labor saving
device?"
81 don't remember the exact price,
but it is very small in comparison
with the money you save afterward." !"
That remains to be seen. You say
! that Mrs. Stevens has never tried the
thing herself, then how can she know
so much about it?"
We'll, she seemed absolutely con-
vnced."

No, what do you Think"

long l got TO speaking to her, and
soon she came to confide in me, as
she had no one else to whom she felt
free to talk.
She passes as the daughter of a
married couple of the section, but
these people are not her real parents,
she told me, but adopted her from
an orphan asylum when she was a
mere baby. They regard her as their
own. however. and being rather we'll

ey. They also spend u great deal
on her for clothes and jewelry.
AS l gather. though. it is GUS
tom of the country from which they
came to engage their children in
their babyhood. and as soon as they
adopted this girl they planned to
marry her to the son of a friend.
He is a grown man. He comes to
her home and tells her what to do.
She won't stand for it, and tells him
to mind his own business. This al
ways results in quarrel.

You might find the thing a nuisance
and a drug on your hands after you
purchased it. | don't like the idea at
all, personally. But if Mrs. Stevens
finds it practical and really likes it,
I'll get you one. That's fair. isn't it?
Don't rush into things blindfolded,
that's all I'm asking of you"
And Helen was forced to be con-
tented with this. She did not agree
with Warren and she was too eager
to try the thing to want to wait, but
somehow down deep there was a
little feeling that if the thing hap
pened to turn out wrong, she would

first place.

Fashions of To-Day By May Manton

Mothers who are thinking of
making over last years dresses
will be sure to welcome this
suggestion. 1t is so essentiallyI
practical and at the same time|
so essentially smart. Here
satin is combined with plaid
serge but you could make vari-
Gus combinations that would be
equally effective. A plain blue
serge would be pretty combined
with a plaid one, or combined
with plaid taffeta, or if you
want plaid dress you could
combine it with a plain ma
terial, reversing the treatment
shown here. Many mothers
like washable materials for the
school dresses throughout the
entire season. If you follow
the suggestion shown here and
use a plain and plaid gingham,
you will have a very smart
frock, adapted to everyday use.
For the I2-year size will be
needed, e12 yards Of material
SO inches wide for the upper
portion, ~ yards "A for the
lower portion and trimming, or,
3% yards 80, 312 yards "A, for
one material.
The pattern No. o5ss is cut
in sizes from 8 to ID years. 1t
