Magic Color Pictures.
A glass of water and a sponge or
brush act like a box of paints on the
wonderful "Watergrapiis," which will
appear in next Sunday's Philadelphia
Press. It's the cleverest novelty of the
year. The pictures are printed appar
ently in biack ink. You touch them
with water, and in a second they be
come beautiful water color paintings.
No skill is needed- Children can do it
as well as grown folks. These "Water
graphs" are in addition to the myster
ious magic pictures, which you rub over
a blank space with a coin and a picture
appears.
The great puzzle-man, Sam Loyd, is
now on The Sunday Press staff of en
tertainers. He has a page each Sunday
that will set you thinking and amuse
you, too. Order next Sunday's Phila
delphia Press of your newsdealer in
advance. Then you'll be sure to get it.

St k lf Help In Citso of Flro.
As a house is never attacked by fire
at the top and bottom at once, if there
is a safe and ready exit at both top
and bottom very little danger to life is
to be feared. It is important that all
exits should be so known as to be easi
ly found by day or nijrlit by every in
mate of the house. - If the clothes you
have on catch lire, a blanket, rug or
some such woolen article should be
quickly and tightly wrapped around
you. Air is Urns excluded, and the tire
goes out.
A small tire in a room can often be
put out in the same way in preference
to pouring water 011 it. 111 ease of fire
keep all doors shut as far as possible.
If a room is full of smoke, keep low or
crawl, because smoke and hot air both
rise, leaving the floor comparatively
clear.

For Those Who Livo on Farms.
Dr. Berlin, Pan a, Ills., writes: "I have
used Ballard's Snow Liniment; always
iTc.inmie'ud it to my friends, as 1 am
confident tin !•! i- no htter made, ft is a
dandy for burns." Those who live on
farms are especially liable to many ac
cidental cuts, burns and bruises, which
heal rapidly when Ballard's Snow Lini
meut is applied. It should always be
kept in the house lor cases of emergency.

World Wide Reputation.
White's Cream Vermifuge has achieved
a world wide reputation a.? being the best
of all worm destroyers, and for its tonic
influence on weak and unthrifty children,
as it neutralizes the acidity or sourness of
the stomach, improves their digestion,
and assimilation of food, strengthens their
nervous system and restores them to the
health, vigor and elasticity of spirits
natural to childhood. 25e at L Taggart's.

"Five years ago a disease tho doctors

other medicines but nothing helped me.
As a drowning man grabs at a straw I
grabbed at Kodol. I felt an improvement

which exactly reproduces trio natural
digestive juices and consequently is the
only one which digests any "ood food
and cures any form of stomach trouble.
