in Our Great Grandfather's Time, big bulky pills were in use.

Assist Nature c. little now and then, v.ith a gentle, cleansing laxative, thereby removing of fending matter from the stomach and bowels, toning up and invigorating the liver and quickening its tardy action, and you thereby remove the cause of a multitude of distressing diseases, such as headaches, indigestion, or dyspepsia, biliousness, pimples, blotches, eruptions, boils, constipation, piles, fistulas and maladies too numerous to mention. If people would pay more attention to properly regulating the action of their bowels, they would have less fre quent occasion to call for their doctor's services to subdue attacks of dangerous diseases. That, of all known agents to accom- f lish this purpose, Dr. Pierce's Fleasant 'elletfi are unequaled, is proven by the fact that once used, they are always in favor. Their secondary efTect is to keep the bowels open and regular, not to fur ther constipate, as is the case with other pills. Hence, their great popularity, with sufferers from habitual constipation, piles and indigestion. A free sample of the "Pellets," (4 to 7 doses) on trial, is mailed to any address, post-paid, 0:1 receipt of name and address on postal card.

One of tin dangers of mining seems to bo in a fair way toward removal, or at least .1 degree of modification that will rub accidents of most of their ter ror. Since it has been proven that death from suffocation Is not due, as has been supposed, to the presence of oxygen, it stands to reason that if a supply of oxygen can be furnished the immediate danger is averted. Oxygen, compressed into almost inconceivably small space, is stored in strong bottles fitted with inhalers, tubes and regulat ing valves. Each miner may carry one of these bottles slung at his belt, ready to use In case of accident. It has been suggested that large casks or other suitable vessels with compressed oxy gen be stored along the ways and on various levels of the mine ready to open in time of need. On the same prin ciple oxjvjen might be forced into wells, vaults or vlier places where bad air is a menace to health or life. DR.KILMER'S KIDNEY LIVERS BttSE?

A sroup of youns -tT"- wives tin other day took up this self-same topic for dis cussion, and it was finally agreed that this policy miht do for some men, but that there were certain masculine in dividuals whom it was much better to keep In Ignorance than to give to thein a complete history of every act thai transpired during the day. Now, this conclusion did not in any way indicate that the actions mentioned were such that the women would be ashamed to confess, but what mifrht be passed over with a smile at one time would be met with a frown and a rebuke at another. "When I was first married," said a brown-hared wife of 25, "I determined to tell my husband everything that I thought, said, or did. I soon found out, however, that such a plan was not con ducive to mutual happiness, but rather against it, for many times I would dis- MM W A DINNER f ver that in putting action into words tlie spirit that prompted the former cotdd not be definitely depicted In tlu latter, and what had been done with pood intentions failed many times to look the same way when related, and frequently when I had started out for a pleasant little exchange of confl uences I found myself plunged In a rare Vi trrcl, which sometimes ended In my husband putting on his coat and de parting, leaving me to spend a most un happy, tearful evening instead of the pleasant one I had anticipated. After awhile I found that if I wished to be thoroughly happy I must not be too confidential. My rule now is to live as nearly right as I know how, follow ing out the dictates of 1113' own con science and avoiding the snares and pitfalls of too open confession by ju dicious silence, which Is, after all, tiro more sensible plan with the mau I have to manage.

Shoes and How to Keep Them. If you would have your shoes retain their pristine freshness longer than a week do not treat them with polishes and ' dressings, each one of which claims to be the best and least injuri ous. As stfon as yoi cme in from a walk dust them carefully with a soft flannel kept for that purpose. Let them air, as you do your underclothes, and when they are dry stuff them with soft tissue paper; button or lace them over this. In this way they will keep their shape for a long time. When they are so worn that they must be bright ened, rub them with a flannel cloth and a little vaseline. Apply the grease carefully, nut merely smearing it over ( the surface of the leather, but rubbing j it in. When it is completely absorbed ; nil) briskly fresh l'annel. Do nut j wear your walking shoes in the house, ! and do not v. alk in your slippers. Keep j a pair of shoes suitable for each occa- ! sion. In this way, though you may seem to have an extravagant supplj, you will be really displaying an econ omical spirit. siKn-s worn indoors and out not only soon lose their brightness and neatness, but last only about one third as long as if the were occasion ally relieved.

The "Royal" is shown by all tests, official, scientific, and prac tical, stronger, purer, and better in every way than all other Baking Powders. Its superiority is privately acknowledged by other manufac turers, and well known by all dealers. If some grocers try to sell another baking powder in place of the " Royal," it is because of the greater profit. This of itself is good evidence of the superiority of the " Royal." To give greater profit the other must be a lower cost powder, and to cost less it must be made with cheaper and inferior materials, and thus, though selling for the same, give less value to the consumer. LOOK with suspicion upon every attempt to palm oft upon you any baking powder in place of the "Royal." There is no substitute for the "Royal." EGGS OF NEW YORK.
