that is, when the settlement was con-
Guided there was no estate. He re-
preached himself bitterly for not hav-

Their had never given Isabel a deed to
her house. "And those pigs, Sydney
and Am1liai" he added, for this was
another thing he was bitter about

a polished refusal. The estate was bad

Everybody today recognizes the harm
Of drinking tea with a meat meal, the
tannin of the tea rendering the meat
as indigestible as leather. Yet in these
days of summer dishes, one is not
aware perhaps of the fact that vinegar

Berlin's Heating Plan.

The city of Berlin adopted in July a
new plan for supplying some public
buildings with heat and warm water.
Exhaust steam from the Berlin cleo
tricity works will be used, in addition
to coke-heated boilers. Pipes are to
be laid in concrete conduits along the
streets, the pipe sections to be welded
together. A number of tenement
houses will be included in the distribu-
ton area, which is set at about two
miles at first. 1t was the original in
tention to commence the supply this
winter, but it is doubtful il the work
will have been completed in time.

"I'll bother him as little as possible.

But Anderson waited too long. The
Major had already taken eleven months

important things out. One evening

THE MAKING OF
A FAMOUS
MEDICINE
How Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound
Is Prepared For
Woman's Use.

A visit 20 the laboratory where this
successful remedy is made in-rvosses
even the casual looker-on with the reli-
ability, accuracy, skill and cleanliness
which attends the making of this great
medicine for woman's ills.
Over $50, 900 pounds of various herbs
are used annually and all have to be
gathered at the season of the year when
their natural juices and medicinal sub
stances are at their best.
The most successful solvents are used
to extract the medicinal properties from
these herbs.
Every utensil and tank that comes in
contact with the medicine is sterilized
and as final precaution in cleanliness
the medicine is pasteurized and sealed
in sterile bottles.
It is the wonderful combination Of
roots and herbs, together with the
skill and care used in its preparation
which has made this famous medicine
SO successful in the treatment Of
female ills.
The letters from women who have
been restored to health by the use Of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Conn
pound which we are continually pub
fishing attest to its virtue.

HOMEMADE PHILOSOPHY

In little while disease will be cured with food, and the doctors will be. come cooks and bakers.
 Ninety-nine per cent of the men who never marry would be ashamed to let the world know the secret side of their life.
 There is more genuine satisfaction In independent thinking than in all the mental claims that bind men to super stition.
 Work your brain if you would make 1t strong. A bandaged limb and a si- lent brain must soon become use less burden to the owner.
 The natural man is a worker-not alone for wealth, but to lift up his end of the load high enough to let others let go and rest their weary arms.
 No odds what your religious faith may be, your work must be n work for humanity. Gods work on earth is all done by hand, so far as man is concerned.
 Wishing for the good old times is the weakness of the man who signs for mothers pumpkin pies. He's one of the fellows who cant advance with the crowd.
 Skepticism is always sweeping it's door yard to prevent the religious peo- pie from finding any dirt there, and the religious people keep on polishing up their faith and work to keep ahead.

ABOUT THE OCEAN

The sea Is continually becoming salter
 A knot is a speed of one sea mile per hour.
 Ships "wear" flags; they do not "fy" them.
 The sea, in cold climates, dimin- ishes the cold.
 Sound travels In a most irregular way through sea fog.
 A sea mile Is 6,0SO feet-that Is, 800 feet longer than land mile.
 There are two tides In q lunar day of 24 hours and 40 minutes.
 Unlike the land, the temperature of the sea does not fall at night.
 A tide is wave of the whole ocean. caused by the action of the moon. Sea vapor is not salt, the latter be- ing left behind.
 Sea water Is an excellent tonic for the hair, especially after illness.
 Below depth of POO fathoms (40O yards) there is no plant life in the sea.

JUST THOUGHTS

Grumbling is lot of comfort to some men.
 Some society women have better clothes than manners.
 Teachers of penmanship naturally do 1ourishing business. Some men would rather tell agree able lies than disagreeable truths.
 Competition works both ways. It is either the life or death of trade.
 An appetite for liquor beats an um- brella for keeping men dry.
 Don't forget that your neighbors can smell onions farther than roast tur. key.

A great man Is the handiwork of many small men.
 It takes cross female to give it to man straight.
 One of the laws of gravity Is not to laugh at your own jokes.
 Even the ambitious oarsman draWS the line at q lightning stroke.
 Money gets tight occasionally, but you rarely see 1t lying in the gutter.
 If man is willing to fight for the truth, 1t isn't safe to call him liar.
