ON GUARD

At this time OF the year people feel
weak. tired, listless, their blood is thin,
they have lived indoors and perhaps
eypended all their mental and bodily
energy and they want to know how to
renew their energy and stamina, over
come headaches and backaches, have
clear eyes, a smooth, ruddy skin, and
feel the exhilaration of real good health
tinsling thru their body. Good, pure,
rich. red blood is the best insurance
against ills of all kinds. Almost all
diseases come from impure and impov-
erished blood. 1t is to be noticed in the
pale or pimply face, the tired, haggard
appearance or the liStlesS manner.
Drink hot water half hour before
meals and for a vegetable tonic there's
nothing better than DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, the old-fashioned
herbal remedy, which has had such a
fine reputation for fifty years. 1t con-
tans no alcohol or narcotics. 1t is
made from Golden Seal root, Blood
root, Oregon grape root, Queens root,
Black Cherry bark, extracted with gly-
Ceriae and made into tablets and liquid.
Tablets sixty cents, at most drug stores.
In order to insure pure blood and to
build up the system try this tonic
known as DR.. Pierce'S Golden Medical
Discovery. Get it now!

THE RED CROSS NURSES OF EUROPl
ARE GIVING TOASTED
CIGARETTES TO THE BOYS

To anyone who doesn't know of the
wonderful advances that have been made
in the preparation of smoking tobaccos
in the last few years it may sound strange
to speak of toasted cigarettes.
Strictly speaking, we should say ciga-
rettes made of toasted tobacco; the smok-
ers of this country will recognize it more
readily by its trade name, LUCKY
STRIKE toasted cigarette.
The American Tobacco Company are
producing millions of these toasted ciga-
rettes and these are being bought in
enormous quantities through the various
tobacco funds conducted by the news
papers of the country and forwarded
through the Red Cross Society to the boys
in France.
This new process of treating tobacco
not only improves the flavor of the tobacco
but it seals in this flavor and makes
the cigarettes keep better.
The Red Cross nurse is always glad to
have cigarette for the wounded soldier,
as, in most instances, that is the first
thing asked for. ADV.

Convenience Especially Suitable Where

for FireIess Cooker When

A kitchen cabinet is just as impor-
tant to the hOusekeeper as the bench
to the workman or the laboratory desk
to the chemist. With it the house
keeper can sit down comfortably with
her whole kitchen workshop easily
within her reach. It saves walking to
and fro to gather this thing and that
to prepare the food. And every kitch-
en- should have a stool Of the right
height to enable the worker to sit at
her work at the cabinet. The home
made cabinet shown in the illustration
Is sanitary, convenient, and attractive.
It is especially suitable and compact
for kitchens in which cabinet space is
limited.
A homemade cabinet can be built
with moderate expense if outside labor
need not be employed. If both lum-
Der and labor must be purchased, the
cost will equal that of a ready-made
cabinet. The cabinet must be made
of good wood, we'll seasoned. That is
the most important consideration.
Poorly seasoned wood warps and
swells and is a constant annoyance in
opening and closing doors and draw.

SAVE A LITTLE SUGAR TO-
DAY,
Candy at Meal Time Only

Candy is a concentrated food,
and should be eaten with mOder-
alton. Though we like it, it is
not a necessity. It is always
best to eat candy as a part Of
the meal to replace some other
food. Eating it between meals
not only means needless use of
sugar, but often causes a loss
of appetite for other foods. APP
ply this suggestion to the chill
dren. If they are to eat candy
it should be a part Of the meal.
Between meals let them have
bread and butter, a cracker, or
fruit.

difference between the tired,
over-worked housekeeper and
one who has some time and en-
ergy left for reading and recre-

by the kind Of equipment used

Agriculture, home conveniences
already have been installed in

Such conveniences not only ef-
feet a real saving in the work
