Na one, we think, will question the statement that we have
an unusally complete stock of high grade druga.
Large as it is, it U a constantly growing one, because it keeps
pace with every advance iu medicine or pharmicy. It is obvious
that a store like this one is a good place to gst family drug? or to
have prescriptions filled. Drugs here are hanilei by competent
pharmacists of large experience. You get ideal s?rvice at reason

The Secret
of the Sphink
TWO young girls .write me a letter
in which they ask me if I can
tell then how to acquire the art of
fascinating men.
I cannot.
That is the secret of the Sphinx
that she guards in her stony, jealous
breast. Every woman spends her
time, from the cradie to tha grate,
trying to solve the mystery of what
pleases man and woman; but she
never really finds out, even when sh
guesses the lucky combination her
self. She sees' some beauties chased bj
hordes of men and other beauties
just as beauteous, who are wall flow
ers; and homely girls that men swarm
around, like flies about a honey pot.-
She observes simpering little fools,
that wise men are ready to break
their necks for and college graduates
aLo have never a beau to bless them
selves with.
She sees rich girls, of high social
position, who sit out balls by the side
of. their mammas while Cinderellas
dance out their slippers; and so many
and contradictory are the facts fn the
case of The Girl vs. The Man that she
reserves her decision.
She doesn't know and nobody knows
what attracts a man to a woman.
An old 6tury is told of a certain
ftoman who had made three excellent
marriages. "We don't see how she
did it," exclaimed her women friends,
'for che's neither good looking nor
clever, nor rich." "Ah," exclaimed an
old Scotchman, who was sitting by,
'it's not the beauty nor the brains,
nor the money that catches a man.
It's the come hither look in a wom
an's eye."
And that is probably as good a de
scription of the art of fascinating a
man as can bo given, but it is dis
couraging, for. the come hither look
in the eye is the gift of nature and
not the result of study and taking
pains.
However while it Is true that to be
a fascinator a girl must be born that
way, it is equally, true that any girl
can make herself popular with men
if she chooses to take the trouble;
and so to my young friends I hand out
these few tips that, judiciously played,
can not lose out:
First Be as good looking as you
can, and drees as well as you can;
but be neither obviously artificial nor
extravagant. If you have to help na
ture out in the way of a complexion
and hair, do it with discretion. Don't
go abou. looking like a hair mattress
or a hevly painted summer cottage.
Don't dress beyond your means, oi
show that you put overstres3 on
clothes. It gives a man cold feet to
even think about having to stand for
the bills of a woman whose thoughts
are centered on, millinery and import
ed frocks.
Second Be pleased with the atten
tions of a man, but not too pleased.
Don't be prim, and prudish, and aus
tere, and unapproachable; neither run
after a man. Make yourself as charm
ing as you can to men, when they
'ome to see you; but never, undei
iny circumstances, ask a man why he
hasn't been to see you. Never, ap
parently, notice that he has failed tc
call.
The girl who gurgles, and gushes,
and is grateful for masculine atten
tion, mal'es herself cheap in a manN
eyes; and the very best way to tote
a man in is to show what you can do
without h.m.
Third Show a man that you appre
ciate his attentions. When he talks
to you, g't up and look interested
even if you have to pinch yourself to
keep awake. When he takes you out,
appear to be having the time of youi
life. If ho takes you to the theater
don't knock the play, no matter hov-
bad it is. '
Fourth Don't make too many de
mands on men. Don't forever be hint
ing that you would like to go to places
that cost money. Still less, hold men
up for presents. Men call this sort oi
a girl "a grafter," and they flee her as
they do the tax collector.
Fifth Don't be affected. Don't pre
tend. Don't pose. Don't imagine that
you make yourself fascinating to men
by screaming at the sight of a mouse,
er being so fragile that you can't walk
a block, or so dainty that you couldn't
think of such a thing as going into
the kitchen and cooking a meal. The
modern man likes a girl who Is sensi
ble, and healthy and youthful, and whe
can turn her. hand to anything, that
comes along.
Sixth Cultivate good nature. Be
.amiable. Be jolly. -Be generous. Men
are scared to death of the cat girl,
whose claws always leave a trail oi
blood behind. When you find a girl
who is always pleasant and agreeable,
and who has got a Jolly laugh, you
won't need a search warrant to find
her beaux.
Seventh Make your family give
you a fair 6how. Young men den't gc

To Preuent Edges of
Rug from. Curling
When sewing strips of carpet to
gether to form rugs, the housewife
is often troubled with the edges of
the finished rug, which seem bound
to turn up. If an old suspender or a
piece of rubber, slightly Btretched, be
ewed underneath, thla trouble will
be prevented.
Rag carpet, ingrain, Brussels and
axminster may be sewed on the ma
chine if care is taken to support the
weight on each side so that the car
pet does not draw tho needle to one
side, thus making It break by strik
ing the presser foot of the machine.
Ostrich Boas Mag Be
Cleaned With Starch
When a white ostrich feather boa
becomes soiled it would seem a hope
less task to try to clean it. But a
voman who -was the proud possessor
of a lovely pure white boa says that
she cleaned it with ordinary starch.
She made a cold starch, adding a lit
tle blue, so that the frouds would
not become yellow.
The starch does not stiffen the
fronds but merely dries in the form of
a cake of paste, i which when hard,
will shake off In th form of a pow

Innumerable audacious combina
tions and groupings "of flowers have
been effected by daring milliner,
combinations which may seem moret
fantastic .than beautiful, although
many a daring color scheme which the
conservative woman ' would hesitate
to wear Is nevertheless beautiful
merely as a bit of color.
These gorgeous flowers offer un
limited possibilities if the milliner has
a well developed sense of tie ar
tistic, although in the unskilled hand
the effect of grouping the wrong
colors together may bring about a
most unsatisfactory and dowdy ef
fect. Moths Preventive
To keep moths from woolens and
furs, true and tried. I have kept
house forty-six years and never had
one article destroyed by moths and
used the following: Wrap each ar
ticle in newspaper after brushing
thoroughly. Sprinkle tobacco in
each, article; also sprinkle in the
bottom of trunk or box used. Cover
furs with cparee cover, put in a pil
low case, Bprinkle with tobacco, tie
tightly, fold the top over and tie
again. Wrap the case in paper.
When taken out for use, a few hours
on the line will remove all taint from
tobacco. Try this and you will be
delighted with the result.
