Two Scotch soldiers who steadied the men at critical moment by play ing mouth organs have been given medals, which does net alter the fact that the average mouth-organ player should be shot without the prelimi nary of a drumhead court-martial.

Dr. Ar thur Warren Walte, awating electro cution for the murder of his father-in-law, John E. Peck, of Grand Raplde, Mich., was found In his cell in the "death house" bleeding from a wound tn hs chest made in the shape of a cross. The prsoner had cut himself with a piece of broken glass. MISSIONARY DIES AT BLACK MOUNTAIN Asheville. While addressing a Sun day school meeting at Black Moun tain Miss Bertha Johnson, missionary noted for her work among the leper colonies, suddenly dropped dead. Death was due to heart failure. Here, Quit That. Many a man's spotless reputation il f tie to the fact that ha has never been caught. Columbus EnQuiror-Sun, iVlFORf IN HOME VALUE OF SYSTEM IS BEGINNING TO BE APPRECIATED. Veil to Get Rid of Useless Trifles That Take Up Space and Make Work Put Alarm Clock to Use. (By NELLIE MAXWELL, Department of Farmers' Institutes of the University of ' Wisconsin.) . Have you gone through your home, putting away many pieces of bric-a-brac, too choice with associations to give away, perfectly useless, incongru ous things, taking up space and caus ing needless handling to keep in or der? If not, do, for the love and comfort of your family. If these things have real value shut them away for a time, at least, and they will be enjoyed again, "absence making the heart grow fonder." It is becoming more and more the custom for housewives to go through boxes, drawers and closets and give to rummage sales, grab-bags and fairs things that have passed their day. Books, magazines, pictures, china and ornaments may be passed on to greater usefulness. Many little people are made glad by k.bit of finery for the doll or things to be; used in the playhouse, which take but, little thought to place in their hanas. What a gain for repose and beauty, to say nothing of space, and time foe, important duties, if these ob jects coiild be eliminated. Simplicity is the keynote of the age, and the com fortable home is a restful place. Emerson says a lady Is serene. Doc tors tell us that hurry, like worry, is death to good lo&s and an enemy to health as well. Thapeople who accom plish the most in theSvorld's work are those who plan well and serenely ac complish their task. f Did you ever time yourself on a cer tain piece of work, whether making a buttonhole or frying doughnuts? If you have you know the time needed and will be able to plan your day. Of course, there are always the unexpect ed interruptions which we cannot plan on, but it is wise to know the length of time It takes to accomplish certain definite pieces of work. If mistresses had a better under standing of these things there would be more peace and harmony In the household, and a maid who had a two weeks' washing under way would not be asked to prepare dinner for invited guests. It is the Inconsiderate women who are helping to keep the servant problem unsolved, and are always look ing for a servant. If one is not possessed with the pre cious power of concentration, use an alarm clock and set? it at the time that dinner is to be started or the bread put Into or taken out of the oven. It takes but an Instant to provide this security and it so relieves the mind that the whole attention may be put upon what ever work is at hand. When we learn to keep our sense of proportion and know that, however de sirable it may be to have the washing out early, a sweet temper, a calm and quiet mind, are much more to be de sired and vastly more appreciated by the home folk. Washing Sweaters. "When I washed my fine white sweater it shrank so that I was scarce ly able to get it on," said a young housewife the other day. "The bottom dried in ripples and the pockets stretched to twice their size. Next time I stitched the pockets in place be fore wetting. I prepared a luke-warm suds of white soap and carefully washed the sweater in this, afterward rinsing It several times. Then I squeezed it dry. Over my dressmakers' form I pinned a sheet and put the sweater on the. form, patting into shape and stuffing each arm with a rolled bath towel. When dry it was as large as when new and fitted me even better." Clean Empty Bottles. As soon as a milk bottle is emptied, rinse it thoroughly with cold water. Do not return dirty bottles and do not use milk bottles except to hold milk. Re turning dirty bottles to the milkman may mean that a few days later either you or your neighbors will get con taminated milk. Milk bottles should never be taken into a sick room. In case of infectious or contagious dis ease all bottles should be boiled thor oughly and should not be returned to the dealer without the express permis sion of the attending physician. Such diseases easily can be made epidemic through disregard of this precaution. Curried Cheese. Dissolve three tablespoonfuls of but ter in a small saucepan, then stir In gradually half a cupful of milk and a small sliced onion. Allow to cook slowly until the onion Is tender. Grate two ounces of Parmeslan cheese, adi? it to the mixture in the saucepan nmr stir until dissolved. Add seasoning to taste, and pour over rounds of hot buttered toast. Serve at ones. This Saves Steps. A large tray to carry dishes to and from the dining room table is a great step saver, but better yet is a wheel tray. The first cost of this is rather large, but the housewife might afford to Indulge in one, for Its convenienc can hardly be overestimated. To Make Omelets Light Add one scant teaspoonful of bakin; powder for every four eggs. New Discovery! Takes Place of Dangerous Calomel It Puts Your Liver To Work Without Making You Sick Eat Anything It Can Not Salivate Don't Lose a Day's Work! f I discovered a vegetable compound that -does the work of dangerous, sickening calomel and I want every reader of this paper to try a bottle and if it doesn't straighten you up better and quicker than salivating calomel just go back to the store and get your money. - I guarantee that one spoonful of Dodson's Liver Tone will put your sluggish liver to work and clean your thirty feet of .bowels of the sour bile and constipation poison which is clogging your system and making you feel miserable. I guarantee that one spoonful of this harmless liquid liver medicine will relieve the headache, bil ' iousness, coated tongue, ague, malaria, sour stom ach or any other distress caused by a torpid liver as quickly as a dose of vile, nauseating calomel, besides it will not make you sick or keep you from a day's work. I want to see a bottle of this vroth derful liver medicine in every home here. Calomel is poison it's mercury -it attacks tHf bones, often causing rheumatism. Calomel is dan gerous. It sickens while my Dodson's Liver Tone is safe, pleasant and harmless. Eat any thing afterwards, because it can not salivate.

SUFFERING BABY RELIEVED AT ONCE Mr. H. J. Lamar, Macon, Ga., writes: "We used Hancock Sulphur Compound on our one-year-old baby who was suffering intensely from prickly heat and a half dozen applications, in the course of 2 days, entirely relieved her. When we first applied it, she was broken out almost over her entire body, causing fretfulness and loss of sleep, but she has not suffered since. You should recommend the Sulphur Compound Btrongly to mothers as many children suffer so much from heat. We also used a tablespbonful in her bath for 3 days and it proved very soothing."

Mrs. Rubie Clark, 315 Oriole St., Nashville, Tenn., writes: "After hav ing three doctors to tejl me I had tuber culosis, I can gladly say that Lung-Vita cured me." These testimonials are taken from the many we have on hand telling what Lung Vita has done in cases of consumption, asthma, colds, croup, whooping cough ana grippe.

A gentleman said to live in Brook line married a second time and his choice was a wealthy lady about fifty years of age. When the bride and bridegroom returned " from the wed ding the husband, introducing his wife to his children, said: "My dear children, kiss the lady. She is the new mamma I promised to bring to you." After taking a steady look at the "new mamma," little Charlie said: "Papa, you have been cheated; she isn't new at all!" Acommodated Him. The old man looked across the table at his daughter. "That young man Smiley called on me today, Maria. I believe you sent him." "Yes, papa." "Of course, I questioned him con cerning his prospects, and found him to beva decidedly frank young man. He said that all he needed was a start in life." "What did you do, papa?" The old man smiled grimly, and glanced down at his heavy boots. "I gave him what he needed," he said. It Wasn't a War Tale. At a smoker the other evening ref erence was made to war stories, whenv this little incident was recalled by Congressman Daniel J. Elordan of New York. Some time since a venerable party stood in the midst of a party of friends describing a happening with consider able force. "They charged like demons V said he. "Though slaughtered in thousands there were millions to take their places, and finally we had to retreat! "Say," remarked a man who had just stepped up, 'Is he describing a battle that he was In during the Civil war?" "No," was the smiling rejoinder of the party addressed.
