The Important
Problem
confronting anyone in need of a laxa
tive is not a question of a single ac
tion only, but of permanently bene
ficial effects, which will follow proper
efforts to live in a healthful way, with
the assistance of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of Senna, whenever it is re
quired, as it cleanses the system
gently yet promptly, without irritation
and will therefore always have, the
preference of all who wish the best of
family laxatives.
The combination has the approval
of physicians because it is known to
be truly beneficial, and because it has
given satisfaction to the millions of
well-informed families who have used
it for many years past.
To get its beneficial effects, always
buy the genuine manufactured by the
California Fig Syrup Co. only.
OPPORTUNITY TO DO GOOD
Combined Efforts on National Tuber
culosis Sunday Will Have
Excellent Results.
New York city had more arrests for
violation of the anti-spitting ordinance
in 1909 than any other city in the
United States, having had 2,513, with
2,099 convictions, and $1,936.80 col
lected in fines. Baltimore comes next
with 211 arrests and an equal num
ber of convictions. Pittsburg is third
in rank, with St. I.ouis in fourth place.
St. Louis, however, would have been
in second place, if the sanitary police
who enforce the law in that city had
been at work in 1909. In 52 cities out
of 80 the law was either not enforced
at all or very poorly enforced. Of
the remaining 28 cities, less than one
half of them contributed more than
three-fourths of the arrests for spit
ling and of the fines collected. On ac
count of the fact that National Tuber
culosis Siuiday will be observed on
April 24, the National Association for
the Study and Prevention of Tubercu
losis is calling the attention of clergy
men in all parts of the country to the
advisability of bringing before their
congregation the necessity for better
enforcement of the anti-spitting laws.
The Response Mechanical.
It is the custom in convents for the
nuns to respond to a knock at the door
with the words: "In the name of God,'*
Ibe phrase being equivalent in con
ventional parlance to our worldly
"enter" or "come in."
In a convent in one of the western
cities not long since the mother supe
rior iiad a never-to-be-forgotten expe
rience as a result of this custom. Some
one in the outer world called the con
vent telephone number by mistake.
The mother superior, roused from her
meditations, picked up the receiver
and responded, mechanically: "In the
name of God."
"Madam!" called an irate masculine
voice at the other end of the wire,
"there is no occasion for you to swear
at me, even if I have made a mistake
in the number. Profane language is
prohibited over the telephone!"
His Way of Doing It.
"I met young Faker on the street
some time ago and he told me he was
making money very fast."
"He made it too fast."
"How was that?"
"Went to the penitentiary for coun
terfeiting."
Her Worry.
Mrs. lloyle—You seem unhappy.
Mrs. Doyle—l am; I don't believe
that if I were to die my husband would
wear as deep mourning as he did for
his first wife.
Remember that life is not a fulfill
ment of one's ideals, but an eternal
compromise with them.
MISCHIEF MAKER
A Surprise in Brooklyn.
An adult's food that can save a
baby proves itself to be nourishing and
easily digested and good for big and
little folks. A Brooklyn man says:
"When baby was about eleven
months old he began to grow thin and
pale. This was, at first, attributed to
the heat and the fact that his teeth
were coming, but, in reality, the poor
little thing was starving, his mother's
milk not being sufficient nourishment.
"One day after he had cried bitterly
for an hour, I suggested that my wife
try him on Grape-Nuts. She soaked
two teaspoonfuls in a saucer with a
little sugar and Tvarm milk. This baby
ate so ravenously that she fixed a sec
ond which he likewise finished.
"It was not many days before he for
got nil about being nursed, and has
since lived almost exclusively on
Grape-Nuts. Today the boy is strong
and robust, and as cute a mischief
maker as a thirteen months old baby
is expected to be.
"We have put before him other
foods, but he will have none of them,
evidently preferring to stick to that
which did him so much good—his old
friend Grape-Nuts.
"Use this letter any way you wish,
for my wife and I can never praise
Grape-Nuts enough after the bright
ness it has brought to our household."
Grape-Nuts is not made for a baby
food, but experience with thousands of
babies shows it to be among the best,
if not entirely the best in use. Being
a scientific preparation of Nature's
grains, it is equally effective as a body
and brain builder for grown-ups.

LITTLE maids have quite a variety
of shapes to choose from when the
time conies for a new hat. Since num
bers of establishments have sprung
up that specialize on this kind of mil
linery more care and attention is
given to it.
The three pictures shown here are
favorites and are correct in every de
tail for children's hats. Drooping
brim};, velvet or silk ribbons, small
familiar garden flowers or wild flow
ers remain the best possible choice
when it comes to trimmings.
Little round crowned Milan straws
with drooping brims are trimmed with
a piain band of velvet finished with a
bow and ends at the back, or with
two rosettes, one at each side. But
FOR THE HOME OR STREET
Pretty Dress Suitable for Either Occa
sion Is the Ore Described
Below.
We show here a pretty dress suit
able either for indoor or outdoor wear;
the skirt is closely plaited and Is con
nected with the bodice by a material
band edged with ribbon velvet. Two
tucks are taken over each shoulder,
stitched to waist back and front; the
prettily shaped yoke is edged with rib
bon velvet, which also trims the wrists
of the leg ot mutton sleeves.
Hat of panne, trimmed with striped
ribbon.
Materials required: 3 yards 46
inches v s'Je, 4 yards ribbon velvet,
yard tucked silk for yoke.
Shirred Puffs Again.
The little shirred puffs that were so
much used a few seasons ago are back
again and the fabric covered cords
which prevailed last year are again be
ing used in braid patterns. Hands of
knife plaiting of the gown fabric,
stitched :.t both sides, are also seen.
CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, MAY 5 , ipio.
little wearers are so pleased with the
addition of (lowers that rosettes of
these are often added. Sometimes
for the sake of additional color satin
ribbon is used. In the picture both
satin and velvet ribbon are placed
with bunches of daisies finishing the
brim.
The fluffy liabi of lace-like hair
braid and net, finished with a rosette
of blue satin ribbon and a wreath of
forget-me-nots is the most popular
style of all those shown for little
girlrf. Such hats are to be found in
all the light colors with white para
mount as a favorite. Nothing is liked
so well unless it be the lingerie hats
of lace and embroidery or lace and
net. These are another story, for they
are in a class known a» 'tub" hats.
SOME HOT WEATHER HINTS
For Those Who Suffer from Excessive
Perspiration Simple Remedies
That Have Proved Effective.
During the hot weather many wom
en suffer from excessive body mois
ture. If not carefully guarded against
this is fatal.
The woman who perspires must not
stint on laundry b!ii3. She should
never wear clothes after there is the
least suspicion of odor, though it en
tails changing underwear twice a day.
Frequent bathing is a necessity. Be
sides a bath each morning, the wash
cloth should be freely used at other
times.
A little ammonia or borax in luke
warm water is excellent in the case of
excessive moisture. Dusting with tal
cum or orris root after a bath will be
helpful.
Shields must be changed frequently.
If you wear cheap grades discard them
before they get old. Most qualities
can be washed, but are never much
protection afterward.
There is less temptation to wear
shields long if they are pinned in with
safety pins rather than sewed.
A good powder is made from one
part salicylic acid to three parts boric
acid, the whole scented with orris
root.
Lycopodium, which is used for chil
dron to prevent prickly heat, will pre
vent undue perspiring.
Dust perspiring hands with boric
acid before putting on gloves and
bathe the hands frequently with co
logne or alcohol. Ventilated gloves
are a help.
When perspiration is so excessive as
to defy all remedies consult a doctor
It frequently comes from weakness.
Novel Trimming.
A pretty finish for collar and cuffs
of a lingerie frock consists of straight
bands of the sheer material edged
on top and bottom with narrow lace
or embroidered insertion. This is
crossed in front of collar and top of
cuff with three bands of insertion
reaching down cn frock and up on
sleeve. The middle band is an inch
longer than the side ones. All are
pointed.
Novelties for the Hostess.
Smart florists now have a pretty
trick of covering the pot with moss
when growing flowers are sent as a
gift. The moss is grown on the earth
en surface and, if watered, will last
for some time, making it possible to
use the flowering plant as a center
piece without a jardiniere or pot
cover.
GERMANY AND
CANADIAN WHEAT
LOOKB TO THE CANADIAN WEBT
FOR HER SUPPLY.
A dispatch from Winnipeg, Manito
ba, dated March 18, 1910 says: That
Germany is "anxious to secure a share
of Canadian wheat to supply her im
ports of that cereal." The recent ad
justment of the trade relations with
Germany has made It possible to carry
on a Canadian-German trade with
much fewer restrictions than in the
past, and considerable development
of trade between the two Countries
Is now certain. The great men of
the United States are alive to the
Wheat situation in this Country now,
and there is consequently the deepest
interest in every feature that will
tend to increase and conserve the
wheat supply. With its present 650,-
000,000 bushel production of wheat
and all efforts to Increase it almost
unavailing, and the rapidly growing
consumption of its increasing popula
tion, there is certainly the greatest
reason for the anxiety as to where the
wheat is to come from that will feed
the nation. The United States will
be forced as Germany is to look to
the Wheatflelds of Canada. One
province alone raised last year one
eighth as much as the entire produc
tion of the United States, and but a
twelfth of the wheat area has yet been
touched. The Americans who have
gone to Canada, are to-day reaping
the benefit of the demand for Canadi
an wheat and they will continue to
join in the benefits thus reached for
a great many years. Splendid yields
are reported from the farms of that
Country, and from land that the Gov
ernment gives away in 160 acre
blocks, and from other lands that
have been purchased at from sl2 to
sls an acre. John Munter, near Eye
brow, Saskatchewan, a former resi
dent of Minnesota says:
"Last fall got over 20 bushels of
wheat to the acre and had 30 acres of
it; also 20 acres spring breaking on
which I had flax of which I got almost
20 bushels per acre. Had 20 acres
in oats and got 70 bushels per acre
and 500 bushels potatoes on one and
three quarter acre, and can therefore
safely say that I had a lino crop and
am well satisfied with my homestead."
He is considered but a small farmer,
but he will be one of the big farmers,
some of these days. There are many
others, hundreds of others, whose
yields were beyond this, and whose
average under crop was vastly
greater. The story of the experi<?nce
of American farmers in the Canadian
West is a long one. The time togo,
would appear to be now, when splen
did selections may be made, and
where land can be purchased at prices
that will be doubled in a coupie of
years.
Something Stronger Than Wind.
Senator Depew, apropos of March
winds, said, at a dinner in Washing
ton j
"An old-fashioned fellow, one year
when Easter came In March, paid too
many Easter calls and drank too many
cups of eggnogg, and, alas, was quite
overcome.
"As the old-fashioned fellow lurched,
In the late afternoon, toward home,
a little girl watched him from her
window, curiously.
" 'Oh, mamma,' she said, 'come and
look at Mr. Stuyvesant. Isn't the wind
blowing him about!' "
Care of Horse's Feet.
If the horse already has defective
feet keep them carefully trimmed and
shod if necessary. The soft hoof
should be shod and reshod every six
or eight weeks in winter where the
ground is frozen and at all times of
the year where the roads are rocked
or graveled. By keeping the horse
with poor feet properly' shod it will
do good service without loss of time.
But it is best to breed for good feet.
Mrs. Smith's Hired Girl.
Mrs. Smith is lucky. She has kept
a servant for three years, and although
the girl has been offered more money
elsewhere she won't leave Mrs. Sjpith.
The girl does all the washing, scrubs
the floors, does up the lace curtains,
and even washes the bedding. People
wonder why she stays at Mrs. Smith's
and does so much more work than other
girls can be induced to do, until they
learn that Mrs. Smith buys Easy Task
laundry soap, which does one-half the
work and makes the other half easier.
Dear.
"Why do people use the expression
'Dear sir' so frequently?" asked the
man who was writing a letter.
"I don't know," answered the man
who was figuring on his expenses, "un
less 'sir' is short for 'sirloin.'"

KEEP HABITS CF THE SEA
SoMors Light Their Pipes on Land Ex
actly as They Would on
Shipboard.
In a New York barroom where
many of the bluejackets with the fleet
for the Hudson-Fulton celebration took
their nightcaps before retiring to
their ships, a petty officer said to a
landlubber acquaintance:
"See how the boys hold their pipes!"
Almost every one of them had the
bowl of his pipe covered with the
arched finger of his hand.
"See?" said the petty officer. "Now
wait till one of them lights his pipe."
In a little while a sailor filled his
pipe, got out his match and faced the
open door of the barroom. There was
not a breath of breein coming through
the door, but the Bailor covered the
lighted match and the pipe bowl with
one hand while he was getting a light,
and after he had thrown the dead
match away he continued to smoke
with his fingers arched over the pipe
bowl.
"Force of habit," said the petty of
ficer."He doesn't intend that, the pi
ping breeze shall blow the lighted to
bacco out of his pipe."
Because a home is in the country—be
cause it is on a farm—is only an added
reason why it should be more up-to-date
and attractive, for those who are fortu
nate enough to live in the country really
spend more time in their homes than do
those who live in cities.
And it is also true that farm homes and
farm life is daily becoming more and more
attractive. The inside of our house is our
home, so why not make it nice and at
tractive, homely and cheerful, up-to-date
and modern.

Pity tne Poor Cowboy!
Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, the famous
food expert, said at a dinner in Wash
ington, apropos of the meat boycott
and the cold storage discussion:
"The trend of modern life seems on
the surface to be toward preserved in
stead of fresh foods, but there is no
such trend, save among certain deal
ers.
"Who," said Doctor Wiley, "would
like to be in the boots of the cowboy
in the barren sagebrush country who
used to send in, week after week, the
same order to the storekeeper:
"Canamilk, canacow, canajam, cana
butter, canacake, canascrapple, cana
corn, canaham, canaplums."
As a Matter of Fact.
"Old fellow," suggested the candid
friend, "you use the expression 'As a
matter of fact' entirely too much. You
have no idea how frequently you
sprinkle it through your conversa
tion."
"Thank you, old chap," replies the
object of criticism. I'll try to avoid
it hereafter. As a matter of fact, it
isn't at all necessary to use it."
