KITCHEN IvIXKS
In heating the oven, the drafts should
be closed when the coal is well started.
In a word, to save fuel "lan ahead, and
then watch draft.
When washing glassware do not put
i it in hot water bottom first. Slip it in
sidewisc and turn it quickly in the
water and it will not snap.
if the turkey is not very fat, avoid
its being dry after roasting by spread
ing butter over the outside, and baste
| it frequently, while it is roasting.
" A pretty salad is made of lettuce
Ipaves shredded, sliced red radishes
and young onions sliced thin. Mix to
gether with a good French dressing.
Tin is a great saving of the HpenM
of equipping a kitchen, if one wishes
the outlay to be as small as possible;
But it should be the thickly coated
kind.
IIOISEIIOI.D HELPS
Cold soft water and soda will re
move machine grease from washable
goods.
Soften pitch, wheel grease or tar
stains with lard and soak in turpen- i
tine. Scrape off all the loose surface
dirt with a knife, sponge clean with
turpentine and rub gently until dry.
To renovate an alpaca skirt dampen
a cloth and lav it on the wron>r side
of the material: press with a moder
ately warm Iron till the cloth is dry:
continue in the same way all around
the skirt.

Girls With Beautiful Faces
or Graceful Figures
American girls have a world-wide
reputation for beauty, but, at the same
time, there are girls In our cities who
possess neither beauty of face nor
form, because in these instances they
suffer from nervousness, the result of
disorders of the womanly organism.
At regular intervals they suffer so
much that their strength leaves tliom;
they are so prostrated that it takes
days for then- to recover their
strength. Of course, such periodic
distress has its bad effect on the nerv
ous system. The withered and drawn
faces, the dark circles and crow's feet
about the eyes, the straight figure
without those curves which lend BO
I much to feminine beauty are the un
mistakable signs of womanly disor-
I ders.
When a girl becomes a woman,
when a woman becomes a mother,
when women pass through the
changes of middle life, are the three
periods of life when health and
strength are most needed to withstand
the pain and distress often caused by
severe organic disturbances.
At these critical times women ar«\
best fortified by the use of Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription, an old
remedy of proved worth that keepu
the entire female system perfectly
regulated and In excellent condition.
Mothers, if your daughters are
weak, lack ambition, are troubled with
headaches, lassitude and are pale and
sickly. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip
tion is Just what they need to surely
bring tho bloom of health to their
cheeks and make them strong and
healthy.
If you are a sufferer. If your daugh
ter, mother, sister need help get Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription in
liquid or tablet form. Then address
Dr. Pierce. Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, X.
Y., and receive confidential advice
from a staff of soeclalists, that's froc;
also 136-page book on women's dis
eases sent free. —Advertisement.
