THEY CURE RHEUMATISM
A Particularly Painful Form of Thl*
Disease Yields to Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills.
Of the many forms which rheumatism
takes, that which is popularly known as
sciatic rheumatism probably tortures its
victim more than any other. That Dr.
Williams’ Pink Pills have cured this
stubborn as well as painful trouble is a
fact proven by the following statement,
,and no sufferer who reads this can af
ford to let prejudice stand in the way of
trying these blood-making pills.
Rheumatism is now generally ro
cognized as a disease of the blood. Dr.
Williams’ Pink Pills make—actually
make—pure blood. When the blood is
pure there can be no rheumatism. Mrs.
Thomas Bresuelian, of 54 Mill street,
■Watertown, N. Y., says :
“My trouble began with a severe cold
which I took about a week before
■Christinas in 1904. I began to have
rheumatic pains in my back and limbs
and after a time I couldn’t straighten
up. .1 suffered the most awful pain for
mouths and much of the time was un
able to leave the house and I had to take
hold of a chair in order to walk and
sometimes I could not stand up at all.
“The disease was prououuced sciatio
Theumatism and, although I had a good
physician and took his medicine faith
fully, I did not get any better. After
some six weeks of this terrible pain and
suffering I tried Dr. Williams’ Pink
Pills and that is the medicine that cured
me. After a few boxes the pain was
less intense and I could see decided im
provement. I continued to take the pills
until I was entirely cured and I have
never had any return of the trouble.”
All druggists sell Dr. Williams’ Pink
Pills, or the remedy will be mailed post
paid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per
box, six boxes for $2.50, by the Dr. Wil
liams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y.

AMAZING RESULTS
Followed the treatment of Mrs.
Maggie Smith, Bonair, Tenn.,
who regarded herself a hope
less invalid—but we give her
own enthusiastic portrayal :
“I was afflicted with whites,
weak back, nervous spells and
swimming of the head for sev
eral years, and was in a truly’
miserable state of health. I be
came so discouraged that 1
quit taking medicines because
they did ho good, until I saw in
a St. Joseph’s Almanac what
G.F.P
GERSTLE’S
FEMALE PANACEA
was doing for other women, so
I wrote for instructions, which
I received and followed, with
amazing results. The G. F. P.
has done wonders for me. It
has made me stronger and in
better health than I had known
for years. It is a remarkable
remedy and ought to be in ev
ery home, for it makes sick
women well and removes all
their pains and aches.”
This is just one letter, but we have thou
sands of similar ones, showing that G. F. P.
is the best Female Tonic, and is every day
curing Painful, Profuse and Delayed Men
struation, Whites, all Womb, Ovarian and
Nervous Troubles. Don’t fail to get a bottle
atonce. It 19 sold under a money-back

CARE OF THE HOME
BUSY MOTHERS SHOULD ENLIST
SERVICES OF CHILDREN.
Dawning Sense of Responsibility Can
Be Awakened by Giving Them
Part of House to Care For.
The busy mother, especially without
a servant, .will find the proper care of
the home too much for her unless she
enlists the children as helpers, says
the Mothers’ Magazine. Let her begin
to practice systematics at once in this
case. Let her also call into play the
dawning sense of responsibility. As
sign some particular corner or box of
playthings to one child to be cared for.
Let there be a certain proprietorship
in this and develop a pride in doing
the bit of work well. A small boy
might have the task of putting away
yesterday's newspapers, and do it
regularly, as his own special part in
keeping the house tidy and pleasant.
The formation of careful habits and
genuine relief to the mother will be
the double effect of apportioning such
tiny tasks to the children.
The motive for doing these little
things well should be made promi
nent. It should not be thought of as
drudgery at all, but should be allowed
as an honor, showing that the child
is now big enough to help mother and
do things in the right way. Discrimi
nating praise should be bestowed, not
as if it were anything astonishing and
out of the way for the little one to do
the work and do it well, but. as a token
of appreciation of the motive and the
manner of doing it. Encourage a%
much as possible, but do not develot,
any vanity in the little one by prais
ing everything done, or going to anj
excess. »
Let love be the mainspring of everj
little service.
HAIRBRUSH IS A NOVELTY.
Has Electrical Storage Battery At
tached to Back.
A novelty in the vanity line is an
electrical hairbrush, which differs
from the ordinary electrical hairbrush
attached by cords to a battery in that
it, has a small storage battery attach
ed to the back of the brush, doing
away with the wires and separate bat
tery. and thus requiring but one hand
to manipulate it. The battery is de
tachable and may be used for mas
sage movements for rheumatism, neu
ralgia and the other ills which elec
tricity is believed by some to allay.
It also has a sponge attachment for
concentrating the current on any part
of the body. The storage battery is
in a small nickel tube, easily handled,
and has to be recharged every three
months. It comes in a leather box
with its hairbrush and sponge attach
ments and suggests a nice Christmas
gift for the woman who likes to ex
periment with all the new aids to
perpetual youth and beauty.
To Make a Dull Piano Bright.
Alcohol is used by workers in fac
tories to remove the dull appearance
from highly polished surfaces of
pianos, but the putting on of this
liquid must be carefully done, or the
finish will be burned, and the case
have to be dressed and polished the
same as it was when new. This
process is costly, so if alcohol is
rubbed on the dull spots with a soft
cotton or flannel cloth only a little
of the liquid should be used. Cut on
with a light stroke across the sur
face, then should follow a brisk rub
with a soft silk or cheeseclotl\ .irs.
Apple Tapioca -Pudding.
Soak one cupuu tapioca* in three
pints' cold Aater over night. In the
rooming put on to boil and cook 20
or 30 minutes, * until it looks clear.
Add a quart and a half peeled and
quartered apples, one cup sugar, a
teaspocnful salt, and lemon juice or
extract to flavor. Turn into a but
tered dish and bake an hour in a mod
erate oven. When cold serve with
cream and sugar.
To Darken Invalid’s Room.
If your room is not provided with
green and white shades, a piece of
dark green glazed calico or cambric,
either pinned or stitched on the cur
tain, will darken the room. This is a
very satisfactory arrangement of an
invalid or for anyone who cannot
sleep in a room with light shades.
Awnings do not quite take the place
of the old-fashioned shutters for dark
ening a room.
Serving Mushrooms.
A delicious way to serve mushrooms
is to butter a dish and sprinkle with a
first layer of bread crumbs and alter
nate layers of mushrooms and bread
crumbs with bits of butter, pepper and
salt and a liberal supply of butter over
the last layer of bread crumbs. Rich
milk or half cream poured over each
layer makes a proper finish, and mush
* rooms so cooked are fit for—for those
who enjoy them.
Making Butterscotch.
Here is a recipe for making butter
scotch candy: Wet a pound of brown
sugar with a cupful of water, into
which two tablespoonf ils of vinegar
have been stirred. Put into an agate
saucepan. Cook for ten minutes, add
four tablespoonfuls of butter and boil
until a drop hardens in cold water.
Pour into large buttered tins, and as
it cools mark off into squares.

T. W. I.eete, a prominent business
man of Springfield, Mass., has pur

Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as I bey cannot reach the dis
eased portion of the car. There Is only one way to
cure deafness, and that Is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness Is caused by an Inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube la Inflamed you have a rumbling sound or Im
perfect hearing, and when It la eutlrely closed, Deaf
ness Is the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to Its normal condi
tion, hearing will he destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which Is nothing
but an Inflamed condition of the mucouB surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of
Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured
by Haifa Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

Edible Menu Card.
In London the latest thing is a "bill
of eat” that you may finish your meal
on. The sheet on which it is printed
is the sugar paper used on the bottom
of maecaroons, while the lettering is
cake frosting. The London caterer
who "invented” the edible menu^card
has been honored by the patronage of
the king. The king “commanded”
the caterer to teach his chef to make
the edible novelty, and the king’s chef
produced it for a dinner at Windsor
qastl'-. There was much laughter as
the king’s guests discovered that the
menu “cards” were good to eat. They
promptly ate them. It is said that
the only bad thing about the cards is
the bad French, and that is quite di
gestible.
SKIN ERUPTIONS 35 YEARS.
Suffered Severely with Eczema All
Over Body—A Thousand Thanks
to Cuticura Remedies.
“For over thirty-five years I was a
severe sufferer from eczema. The
eruption was not confined to any one
place. It was all over my body, limbs,
and even on my head. I am sixty
years old and an old soldier, and have
been examined by the Government
Board over fifteen times, and they
said there was no cure for me. I have
taken all kinds of medicine and have
spent large sums of money for doc
tors, without avail. A short time ago
I decided to try the Cuticura Reme
dies, and after using two cakes of
Cuticura Soap, two boxes of Cuticura
Ointment, and two bottles of Cuti
cura Resolvent, two treatments in all,
I am now well and completely cured.
A thousand thanks to Cuticura. I
cannot speak too highly of the Cuti
cura Remedies. Jo*in P. Roach, Rich

Kaiser Won Bride for Officer.
A curious instance of the active
part the kaiser takes in arranging the
marriages of relatives and friends is
recorded. A personal aid-de-camp of
his majesty was very much depressed
by the lady of his choice giving him
a refusal. The same afternoon the
kaiser drove to the house of the
young lady, the daughter of a wealthy
Berlin banker, and pleaded the cause
of his aid-de-camp with such elo
quence that the marriage took place &
month later.—Reynolds’ Newspaper.
FROM GIRLHOOD TO WOMANHOOD
Mothers Should Watch the Development of Their Daughters—
Interesting Experiences of Misses Borman and Mills.
Every mother possesses information
which is of vital interest to her young
daughter.
Too often this is never imparted or is
withheld until serious harm has result
ed to the growing giri through her
ignorance of nature's mysterious and
wonderful laws and penalties.
Girls’ over-sensitiveness and modesty
often puzzle their mothers and baffle
physicians, as they so often withhold
their confidence from their mothers
and conceal the symptoms which ought
to he told to their physician at this
critical period.
When a girl’s thoughts become slug
gish, with headache, dizziness or a dis
position to sleep, pains in back or lower
limbs, eyes dim, desire for solitude;
when she is a mystery to herself and
friends, her mother should come to her
aid, and remember that Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound will at
this time prepare the system for the
coming change, and start this trying
period in a young girl’s life without
pain or irregularities.
Hundreds of letters from young girls
and from mothers, expressing their
gratitude for what Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound has accomplished
for them, have been received by the
Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co., at
Lynn, Mass.
Miss Mills has written the two fol
lowing letters to Mrs. Pinkham, which
will be read with interest:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— (First Letter.)
“Iam but fifteen years of age, am depressed,
have dizzy spells, chills, headache and back
ache. and as I have heard that you ran give
helpful advice to girls in my condition, I am
writing you.”—Myrtle Mills, Oquawka, 111.
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— (Second Letter.)
“ It is with the feeling of utmost gratitude
that I write to you to tell you what your
valuable medicine has done for me When T
wrote you in regard to my condition I had
consulted several doctors, but they failed to
understand my case and I did not receive
any benefit from their treatment. I followed
your advice, and took Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound and am now healthy
and well, and all the distressing sj'tnptoms
which I had at that time have disappeared.”—
Myrtle Mills, Oquawka, 111.
Miss Matilda Borman writes Mrs.
Pinkham as follows:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—
“ Before taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound my periods were irregu
lar and painful, and I always had such
dreadful headaches.
“ But since taking the Compound my head
aches have entirely left me, my periods nre
regular, and I am getting strong and well. 1
am telling all my girl friends what Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has done for
me.”—Matilda Borman, Farmington, Iowa.
If you know of any young girl who
is sick and needs motherly advice, ask
her to address Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn,
Mass., and tell her every detail of her
symptoms, and to keep nothing back.
She will receive advice absolutely free,
from a source that has no rival in the
experience of woman's ills,and it will, if
followed, put her ou the right road to a
strong, healthy and happy womanhood.

pound holds the record for the greatest
number of cures of female ills of any
medicine that the world has ever
known. Why don't you try it ?
