The shortage of help has taken thousands of women back to their own kitchens to do their own cooking. And how natural they should revive the cookie, doughnut. pie and other distinctly American dishes. But the recipes have been revised: four is coarser and different; less wheat and more of other kinds, and a lot of in- digestion was complained of.

Not only does it aid diges- ton, but it arouses the stomach to secrete the juices necessary to re lieve sourness, heartburn, gas, the sense of stuffiness and the drowsi- ness that so often follow the good things you eat.
 Try these tablets and you will then realize what influence they have, not only to assist digestion, but as con: tributing in. a remarkable degree to the sense of comfort and. we'll being Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold in all drug stores at 50 cents a box, and throughout the United States and Canada.

 The best thing for steady use is just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil (which is pure and greaseless), and is better than the most expensive soap or anything else you can use,
 One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in l. makes an abundance of rich. creamy lather, which rinses out eaS- fly, removing every particle of dust. dirt. dandruff and excessive oil. / The hair dries quickly, and evenly, and il leaves the scalp soft. and the hair fIrz and silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy to manage. You can get mulsitied cocoanut oil al any pharmacy, it's very cheap. and a few ounces will supply every mem Der of the family for months.
