OF INTEREST TO WOMEN a. FOR ELDERLY WOMEN It is said that we have no "old women'' now; that the woman of fifty to seventy years is as youth ful in appearance as her mother was at thirty-five to fifty and the advan tage is largely attributed to the fact that the elderly woman of today re fuses to be gowned always in black and insists upon taking care of her face and figure. The materials for the woman after sixty should be rich and handsome, plain smooth cloths and silks preferable to figured goods. Veilngs and other soft materials are much used. White, pale gray, helio trope and many becoming pale shades combine wsll with black in dressy costumes; gunmetal, deep purples, and touches of any becoming color may be used in tasteful moderations . Nun's veiling is an inexpensive ma terial, and make up icely for house dresses, the softer becoming colors are preferable to black. Gray is not becoming to all old ladies, and for many of them, a touch of scarlet or shades of pink or blue may be used aDoiu tne tnroat. Very tew women well alon wear the collarless dress and lace or fine embroideries give a softening ef fect to the face and neck. Gray hair need not necessarily be faded hair, fr-. ;f -ore iR rirpn t0 ft may rival i-v ;. i: : : ill.

An elderlywo man should study her looking-glass even more than the young woman, and seek to ?make the most of herself by much painstaking. Surely, if any one has a right to 'primp?' it is the veteran who has earned her retire ment . after a lifetime of fighting in the front ranks. FOR DISORDERED NERVES In the olden times, our mothers, were our doctors, and they depend ed very greatly upon carefully gath ered roots and herb for their reme dies. If they did not always cure, they seldom killed, and the after math of afflictions known1- to the drug victim was seldom heard of. Many of these old remedies are being brought into notice again by nurses and eclec- tic physicians. A Reader sends us the Faultless every detail. .1 Women 1 .- ' . faces, sallow complexions. features and tired, worn- following, saying it has been used in her family for many year, for nerve disorder, liver trouble and indigestion As these three ailments are , first cousins, each one in ympathy with the other, by curing the one. the other two may be remedied, or at least relieved. Get the fresh roots of the dandelion plant and make a strong decoction of them by putting pieces of the root into cold water and leting it steep slowly for several hours. A cupful of the decoction two or three times a day is said to soon regulate the disordered nerves. A hysterical condition of the system, even though one never has been known to 'have hysterics' may be greatly benefited, and even cured, if the remedy is longg continued. If the decoction seems like a too hitter dose, try roasting the cleaned roots, grinding them, steep a quantity as desired, and with the addition of cream and sugar, it may be used as a rank, strong coffee. Our most ex perienced physicians tell us that drugs seldom 'cure' nerve disorders. THE SALT BATH This is a very strengthening bath, and can be taken at home; but if one is o ituated that a half-hour's mas sage can be had, its value is greatly increased: Put about a quart of coarse barrel salt in a bowl; pour oyer it just water enough to moisten, but not melt the salt; then standing on a square of oil-cloth, or in an emp ty tub, rub the salt vigorously with your hands all over the body begin ning at the neck. Take up handfuls of the salt and rub vigorously until the skin is red; then sponge until all the salt is washed off; sponge quickly with cool water and rub the body well with a turkish towel, or mits made of turkih toweling The Com moner. What to Wear When in Mourning Whether we approve or not, it is undeniably true that the period of mourning is being shortened and the evidences made less conspicuous than in the years of the past, say the au thorities for men's fashions. Only rarely nowadays do men wear emblem of grief for persons outside of their ! immediate family. First mourning for a wife covers a year and for other relatives six months. During the first period only black and white effects are permissi ble. The scheme calls for deep hat band, white shirt, either plain or with black tripes and black suit, overcoat, waistcoat, half hose, gloves and shoes The second period of mourning lasts six months for a wife and three months for any other relative. In this time gray is correct and mourn ing band is not worn on the hat. Black and white effects as well as gray are allowable. The bassard or sleeve band is in exceedingly bad form. It originated in England as an expedient for ser I vants and others who could not af ford entire change of outfit. Attendance at social affairs of a ceremonious character is not expect ed during the first period of mourn ing. If circumstance make it neces sary the only change from customary usage is in daytime black gloves and cravat, instead of sn-ay. and in the evening cloth banl not silk, on the silk hat. Black toe and waistcoat should not be substituted in the evening for the white, nor are black studs and links or black bordered handker chiefs any longer approved, these things savored of parading sorrow and have wisely been abandoned. The primary purpose of black is to pre vent such embarrassment as might arise from ignorance of bereavement on the part of those met. JOIN CRUSADE AGAINST WHAT THE FLY CAN DO From V Flies and Filth Food and Fever to Flies are disease carriers. They live and breed in all kinds, of filth. Flies infect food and liquids by Germ-laden feet. Each female fly can lay 150 eggs. 'Flies should be kept put of dwell ings. The presence of flies is a direct ev idence of careless housekeeping and the existence of filth in some form about the premises. Remember that when and where ab solute cleanliness prevails there Will be no flies. . Look daily after the garbage cans. See that they, are carefully sprinkled vith a disinfectant. Look carefully after the cuspidors they require constant attention, they I should always contain a disinfectant . Flies feast on tuberculous sputum, and hover around cuspidors. The specks of flies contain live tubercle bacilli after they have eaten tubercul- our sputum, showing that the bacilli will pass through the digestive tract of the fly in an active, infective state Flies carry on their mouths and on their legs disease germs, on which they have recently fed. and then crawl over food, infecting it. Keep flies from the sick, especial ly those ill with communicable or contagious diseases; Don't forget that flies will carry the bacilli of typhoid fever to the food in the kitchen and dinning room. This is no conjecture The Spanish-American War proved this fact. The great secret of how to get rid of flies is cleanliness; Screen all food. Keep receptacles for garbage care fully covered and the cans cleaned or sprinkled with oil, lime or some good disinfectant. Cover food after a meal. Screen all windows and doors, es pecially the kitchen and dining room Don't forget, if you see flies that their breeding place is near by. It may be behind the door, under the table or in the cuspidor- If there is no dirt and filth there will be no flies. If there is a nuisance in the neigh borhood write at once to the Health Department. ELON COLLEGE We call the attention of our readers to the advertisement of Elon College which appears in this issue.

The eggs, cheese young chickens, equab which it prefers to wheat increases proportionately the cost of its board. Even if there were no more rats in the United States than there are hu man beings, and if each rat consumed and -spoiled only 53 cents worth of food in a year, the total cost in a decade would be staggering. As a mat ter of fact, the rati population in most communities is at least five times that of the human.
