WHY i'OMEH WRITE LETTERS To Lydia E. Pinkh&m Medi cine Co, Women who are well often ask "Ar the letters which the Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co. are continually publishing, genuine?" "Are they truthful!" ' Why do women write such letters ? " In answer we say that never have we published a fictitious fetter or name. Never, knowingly, have we published an untruthful letter, or one without the full and written consent of the woman who wrote it. .. . . The reason that thousands of women from all parts of the country write such grateful letters to the Lydia E. Pink ham Medicine Co. is that Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound has brought health and happiness into their lives, once burdened with pain and suffering. , It has "relieved women from some of the worst forms' of female ills, from dis placements, inflammation, ulceration, Irregularities, nervousness, weaknes3, stomach troubles and from the blues. It is impossible for any woman who Is well and who has never suffered to realize how these poor, suffering wo men feel when re stored to health; their keen desire to help other women who are suffering as theydid. Why Not? "Why did you strike this man?" asked the judge sternly. "He called me a liar, your honor," replied the accused. "Is that true?" said the judge, turn ing to the man with the inussed-up 'face. "Sure it's true," said the accuser. - "I called him a liar, because he is one, and I can prove it." "What have you to say to that?" asked the judge of the defendant. "It's got nothing to do with the case, your honor," was the unexpected re ply. "Even If I am a liar I guess I've got a right to be sensitive about It, ain't I?" An optimist is a man who invests In a gold brick every time the oppor tunity presents Itself. Housework Is a Burden It's hard enough to keep house if in perfect health, but a woman who Is weak, tired and suffering from an aching back has a heavy burden. Any woman In this condition has good cause to suspect kidney trou ble, especially if the kidney action seemsdisordered. . Doan's Kidney Pills have cured thousands of suffering women. It's the best recommended special kid ney remedy. A South Carolina Case Mrs. T. Nelson, Walnut St.. Abbe ville. S.

Lilian Whiting. FOOD FOR CONVALESCENT. To keep a patient comfortable and lappy is no small part of the Journey to Wellvllle. To keep him happy und comfortable he must be refreshed with proper drinks and food. During the heated season the lemon Is an in valuable aid in pre paring cooling drinks. The ald of the lemon Is cool ing to the blood, and when the drink Is combined with egg It Is also' nour ishing. A well-beaten egg or two stirred Into n glass of lemonade will often convey all the nourishment needed, and the patient does nt real ize (if he falls to have an appetite) that he Is really being fed. . During the hot weathersuch foods as custards, plain rice, farina and corn starch, as well as rice flour, make del icate dishes, easily digested by an In valid. An uncooked custard Is liked by many; simply chill the milk, add the egg and sugar, beat well, and serve with a bit of flavoring and a pinch of salt This is one form" of egg nog. ., It is never safe to experiment with foods upon a convalescent as "what is one man's food Is another man's poi son." Buttermilk will agree beauti fully with some people with Intestinal trouble when cream, top milk and malted foods cannot be taken at all. The physSclan should always be con sulted and his advice carefully fol lowed In regard to the proper feeding. Such foods as delicately cooked eggs, kumiss, milk gruel, barley or rice flour gruel (long and well cooked), or scald ed milk are often well borne by those troubled with Inflammation of the di gestive tract A colicky baby may often be re lieved from pain by giving a half of a soda-mint tablet dissolved in a little warm water. Lay a warm water bag between your knees and turn the baby stomach down over this; rub. and pat gently and the pain will disappear In a few minutes. As these are the trying weeks or babies, they should Bave especial care, keeping them cool and allowing them to have an occasional cool drink. Cross, fretful babies cannot tell you that they are choking -with thirst. Nothing is impossible, there are ways which lead to everything; and if we had sufficient will, we should al ways have sufficient means. LaRoche foucauld. SEASONABLE DISHES. A delicious dessert of peaches is made by pouring over cut-up ripe ' peaches one cupful of or- f , J "'I nn&e juice and a half ' ' &( 1 cuDful of lemon lulce. On n top sprinkle with chopped 3J pineapple and with pow- dered sugar. Peach Sherbet. Pare and quarter enough ripe peaches to make a qunrL Add to a quart of water the rind of one lemon and two tablespoonfuls of granulated sugar,, stir until dis solved; add the peaches, cook until tender, press through a sieve and set aside to cool. When cool add the juice of one lemon ami freeze the same as any ice cream. Beat the white of an egg very stiff, remove the dasher, and stir In the egg. Repack and set aside to ripen several hours. Grape Sherbet. Make a sirup by boiling two cupfuls of water and one of sugar 15 minutes. Add one cupful of grape juice and one cupful of or ange, juice and two tablespoonfuls of lemon juice. Cool, strain and freeze; remove the dasher and beat in two well-beaten egg whites, then set to ripen. Melon Sherbet. Cut the edible por tion of a muskmelon In cubes. To u quart of water add a pound of sugar ' and boil for ten minutes, then add a teaspoonful of gelatin, softened In two tablespoonfuls of cold water; strain In-: to the freezer and when cool add the ' Juice of five lemons and freeze. Serve with the melon cubes as n garnish or the sherbet may be served In melon cups. Green Corn Cakes. Take one quart of green corn, cut from the cob, or grated and pressed from the hulls; two cupfuls of milk, one cupful of flour, two well-beaten eggs, salt and pepper to taste and a tablespoonful of olive oil or melted butter. Bake on a hot grid dle. Parsnips boiled and dipped In mo lasses before frying will be found to be most tasty. Mushed and seasoned and dipped In a fritter batter, then fried In deep fat will be another acceptable way to serve them. Quinces may he kept for weeksi in a cool dry place and be used as needed for preserves, baking or for puddings. Date pudding may be crumbed, mixed with nuts and flavored v hipped cream, and served In sherbet cups gar nlsbed with a cherry or a hit of pre served pineapple or a fig. The costly habit of eating more than you need Is net only bad on the purse, but vastly more Important, ruin ous to the organs of digestion. Xu-ac huvftuSi 1 pi PS il j LLOTUtT If t - 1 V',vW., :$: USE In Her The little miss, with the pretty curls, looks well In the simplest of her clothes, but she is adorable in her party frocks. She is sweetly conscious of be ing "all dressed up" and is entirely sat isfied with things as they are. This is a state of mind most comfortable for all concerned. The little party frock pictured above Is made of such simple and inexpensive materials that every small girl Is en titled to have her Instinct for finery indulged. It requires nothing more ex travagant than albatross cloth In cream white, a little Venetian lace in an all over pattern and plain cream white net for the sleeves. The albatross is a light weight wool fabric in a crepelike weave which has the advantage of be ing washable. It comes in white and all colors. Venetian lace is familiar as a pretty and serviceable sort which Is just as washable as the plain net of which the sleeves are made. In this dress the skirt is Joined to a plain short sleeveless waist. With its fullness disposed in a group of plaits at each side the skirt hangs in a panel nt the front and back. The short body is supported by narrow straps over the shoulder and fastens with small but tons and button holes in the back. The For the Little The little miss who Is about to take her initial step on the endless road of knowledge must be fitted out with plain and pretty frocks for school wear. Most of these are to be had ready made. In reliable materials and at prices so low that it Is hardly worth while o make them at home. But others In which simple handwork In ornamental stitches is used for a finish are comparatively high priced. Here is one made of plain "India linen." This by the way. Is an unsuit able name for a beautiful cotton fab ric that needs no false colors for sin mth sail! Kg. The plain' full skirt is modeled at the top -with mercerized crochet cot trn and the edjrr of the frill about the njck Is finished with overcast stitches nH close together. This cotton is In a cvior contrasting with the dress IT" cr'x Li "Jf ' I XL & i l K t - ' i 1 AV; l'4;" r l t 4 4 " ' t "Z ' f 4 ' ?i J i : h FT-" " ail l tfii,J- . ...(.V. ,..J...-., -,l inaJ......Jr Party Frock. sleeves are gathered Into three shirred sections over small cords and finished with a band of lace. The little slip over jacket of lace is gathered over a cord into a round neck and bound with scallops at the back and- front that lengthen Into points at the side. A wide eash of soft satin ribbon In one of the light tints Is finished at one side with a big rosette bow with a sin gle end. With a knowledge of the ma terials used and the siuull amounts re quired for a little girl, it is easy to fig ure the very modest cost of this pretty little party frock. Lingerie Blouses. The colored blouse of organdie, voile, georgette and wash satin has taken such a hold on the popular fancy that it is quite difficult to find a really attractive plain white blouse, ex cepting those for sports wear. Pale pink, all tones of tan and yellow, soft blues and grays predominate. The costume blouse of pale cream lace or Georgette usually has an interlining of the palestfish chiffon; the blue waist is piped with pin or another harmonious contrast. It is Indeed a season of color and one may Indulge to the heart's content; Kindergartner. and In this Instance delft blue is used on white. The top of the wide hem is outlined with diagonal stitches set close together and the edges of the small bands about the sleeves are done in the same way as the collar. The greater number of dresses for school wear are made of heavier cot tons and Iluens In colors. The fad for a reserved use of decorations made with the simplest of embroidery or other needlework stitches, shows no sign of decreasing In popularity. This quickly made and elegant-looking finish for the everyday, clothes of lit tle girls Is In keeping with the fa miliar serviceable materials it is used on. It Is not too fine for them.

Glass soda service the kind our grandfathers and the grandfathers of the present generation of germs knew is doomed. The new paraffined pa per cups for sodas and sundaes that now are being adopted by up-to-date fountains all over the United States, are to be had in all of the regulation sizes. They are made of pure white paper and no glue of any kind holds them to gether. They are paraffined on the outside only, so that they can be used as successfully for hot drinks as they can for cold. Special metal holders are made for them, giving them a solid background, which prevents the spoon from being pushed through the paper. The metal dispensing tube holds 150 of the cups, which are placed in the tube point upward. When needed, a metal holder is placed on the cups, top downward. By turning the cupholder to the right the metal tongue is made to clasp the creased paper, and cup and holder can then be removed to gether from the machine. Illustrated World. His Early Morning Task. Not all city folks aro as ignorant of the conditions on the farm as pome farmers are apt to suppose. A Bos tonlan who was spending his vacation on a farm in Maine had resolved to rise with the birds in order to get the full advantage of the rural life. "WeM, young man," said Fanner Ilitree, as the city chap hove in sight, "been out to hear the haycock crow, I supose?" The city man smiled. "No," said he, "I've been out tying a knot in a cord of wood." Proper Thing. "Why do you roust that chorus girl show?" "What else do you want me to do with those broilers in it?"

Despite the heavy demand for car pets and rugs, the steady rise in cost"" of raw materials and wages is causing: a widespread check on the production In the United States, says a recent Issue of the American Sarpet and Up holstery Journal. In various directions there are symp -toms of a slowing down In the manu--facturlng end of the floor covering in dustry, thCugh reports from salesmen on the road indicate the retail trade is much more active. The trouble lies int the fact that many mills already have stopped their machinery for the' sea son. This Is ndding impetus to the jobbing trade and during the next few. months at least, many buyers whe never looked beyond the manufacturer for their goods will be forced into the? secondary market. Sold up mill conditions, anticipation of advances in price of goods avail able in July, the European war, the forthcomlng presidential campaign,, trade and crop conditions combined, are creating a series of cross-current of extraordinary magnitude and man ufacturers are moving with- caution. Though increases In prices made by manufacturers have been borne satis factorily by the public, the anticipation that carpet wools' will soar further this summer has no tendency to cause' factories to overreach themselves.
