A Colorado state official wants the

fault of the parent. That would be a
grand revenge for children after all
of these years of engagement with
barrel staves and skate straps. How
ever, it would be hard on the parents,
as it would mean that there would he
no part of their life free from
punishments. Most of the parents
grow up before the moral suasion
ideas got very far along and they
would have to stand it at both ends.
Their only hope for relief would be in
becoming grandparents as speedily as
possible.

success. I tried several doctors, but
at last gave up thinking there was a
cure for eczema. A friend of mine
insisted on my trying the Cuticura

Woman to Conduct Large Estate.
Mrs. Jennie L. Doane of Brockton,
Miisb., has been appointed to adminis-
ter the half million dollar estate of the
late R. N. Packard and also to have
complete control of his large shoe fac-
tory. Mr. Packard died suddenly
without making a will. His heirs were
a brother and two sisters, none of
whom knew anything about IiIh busi-
ness. Mrs. Doane had been in the
employ of Mr. Packard for a number
of years and he had often spoken of
her ability to Ills relatives, declaring
that she had more brains than any
two men of his acquaintance. For
that reason his heirs asked to have
her appointed imd pul in full charge
of his business.
A Needed Change.
The navy department recently re-
ceived from tHe commander-in-chief
of the fleet an official communication
relative to certain changes recoin
mended by him to be made in the uni-
form shirt of the enlisted men. In ac-
cordance with custom this letter was
forwarded to various officials for com-
ment or expression of opinion, the re-
marks of each officer being appended
on an indorsement slip. Each indorse-
ment introduces the subject matter of
the letter In a brief, and one of them
thus tersely explained the contents:
“Commander-in-chief desires to change
shirt.”—Lippincott's,
Laughter in the Court.
An old plasterer is called upon to
give evidence for the plaintiff. Coun-
sel for the defense tries to bully him.
“Have you ever been in prison?” “Yes,
twice.” “Ah! how long the first time?”
“One whole afternoon.” “What! And
the second time?” “Only one hour.”
“And pray what offense had you com-
mitted to deserve so small a punish-
ment?” “I was sent to prison to white-
wash a cell to accommodate a lawyer
who had cheated one of his clients.”
What His Wife Gave Him.
The boss builder was standing on
the edge of tho great cavity at Thirty-
fourth street that they have been dig-
ging for the past few years, when an
Irishman walked toward him.
"Look here,” he said. “Didn't I fire
you yesterday?”
“Yes,” said the Irishman, “and I
don’t want you to do it again, either.
My wife gave me the devil about it
when I got home.”—New York Times.
DIDN’T KNOW
Coffee Was the Cause.
Many daily habits, particularly of
eating and drinking, are formed by fol-
lowing our elders.
In this way ill health is often fas-
tened upon children. A Ga. lady says:
”1 had been allowed to drink coffee
ever since 1 could remember, but even
as a child I had a weak stomach,
which frequently refused to retain
food.
“The taste of coffee was In my
mouth all the time and was, as 1 found
out later, the cause of the stomach re-
belling against food.
”1 now see that it was only from fol-
lowing the example of my elders that
I formed and continued the miserable
habit of drinking coffee. My digestion
remained poor, nerves unstrung, fre-
quent headache, and yet I did not sus-
pect the true cause.
"Another trouble was a bad, muddy
complexion for which 1 spent time and
money for creams, massaging, etc.,
without any results.
"After I was married I was asked to
try Postuni, and would you believe ii,
I, an old coffee toper, took to Postum
from the very first. We made it right
—according to directions on the pkg.,
and it had a most delicate flavor, and I
at once quit coffee, with the happiest
results.
”1 now have a perfectly clear, smooth
skin, fine digestion and haven’t had a
headache in over two years.”
"There’s a Reason.”

The Sneeze That Failed.
A little maid of three has been
taught to say "Excuse me" when she
sneezes.
The other day her mother had her
attention attracted by a queer gasping
noise, and, looking up quickly, saw
the face of the little maid wrinkled

“You didn’t say it,” said the mother
"I didn’t do it," responded the littl*
maid.
Prof. Munyon says: Cure a cold and
you prevent Consumption. His opin-
ion Is now shared by the leading
physicians of the country, and the
wonderful cures that are being made

tracted the attention of the whole
medical fraternity. These little sugar
pellets break up a cold in a few hours,
and almost universally prevent Bron-
chitis and Pneumonia.
A Fatal Breath.
Brookton (with statistical bent)—
Do you know, old man, I’ve just been

Brockton (comprehendingly) —By

the name of the census don’t you chew
cloves?

one ounce syrup sarsaparilla and one

“ Do you know of any woman who ever received any
benefit from taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com-
pound ? ”
If any woman who is suffering with any ailment peculiar
to her sex will ask her neighbors this question, she will be
surprised at the result. There is hardly a community in
this country where women cannot be found who have been
restored to health by this famous old remedy, made
exclusively from a simple formula of roots and herbs.
During the past 30 years we have published thousands
of letters from these grateful women who have been cured
by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and never
in all that time have we published a testimonial without
the writer’s special permission. Never have we knowingly
published a testimonial that was not truthful and genuine.
Here is one just received a few days ago. If anyone doubts
that this is a true and honest statement of a woman’s experi-
ence with Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound write
and ask her.
Houston, Texas.—“ YVlicn I first began taking- Lydia F, Pink-
lium's Vegetable Compound I was a total wreck. 1 had been
siek for three years with female troubles, elironic dyspepsia,
and a liver trouble. I had tried several doctor’s medicines, but
nothing did me any good.
“For three years I lived on medicines and thought I would
never get well, when I read an advertisment of Lydia U. I’ink-
liain’s Vegetable Compound, and was advised to try it.
“My husband got me one bottle of the Compound, and It did
me so much good I continued its use. I am now a well woman
and enjoy the best of health.
“I advise all women suffering from such troubles to give
Lydia E. Plnkliam’s Vegetable Compound a trial. They won’t
regret It, for it will surely cure you.” — Mrs. JUcssic L. Hicks,
810 Cleveland St., Houston.
Any woman who is sick and suffering is foolish surely
not to give such a medicine as this a trial. Why should it
not do her as much good as it did Mrs. Hicks.
Sloan’s Liniment is the best remedy for sprains
and bruises.
It quiets the pain at once, and can be applied to the
tenderest part without hurting because it doesn’t need
to be rubbed — all you have to do is to lay it on
lightly. It is a powerful preparation and penetrates
instantly — relieves any inflammation and congestion,
and reduces the swelling.
Sloan’s
Liniment
is an excellent antiseptic and germ
killer — heals cuts, burns, wounds and
contusions, and will draw the poison
from sting of poisonous insects.
