1 Women | Realize J A that life without good health is but p p A serious illness may last for a time and be p J followed by a happy recovery, but it is the minor J complaints that drag and worry and destroy the J pleasure in living. Avoid these little ailments. I 1 I The Blessings | | of Health j A are usually within the reach of every woman. Ik J Most female disorders come from a deranged |l J condition of the digestive organs. Languor, p J fainting spells, backache and many of the symptoms peculiar to women are due to impur- jl J ities in the blood, which should be eradicated. % I I | When They | Have Used • | diligence in correcting the organs of digestion p and elimination, irregularities will cease. J Beecham's Pills for over half a century have p been woman's greatest benefactor. They are J a safe and reliable remedy. By acting on the p A digestive organs, they strengthen the nerves, A purify the blood, tone the system. With a p healthy digestion comes robust health, and p p ailments will vanish as if by magic.

Grauel Out of the Chafting Dish Time was when we heard much about chafing diiih luncheons, suppers and school girl feeds. And even college boys were said to know the mysteries of fudge and Welsh rarebit making better than their theorems.

Rooms in college dormitories are not considered furnished unless they con tain these wherewithals for forbidden midnight feasts, anil stern school guardians kindly overlook them. College girls will soon be corning home for vacation and this particular treasure will accompany them to fur nish delicate tidbits to late evening callers and give excuse to exercise a charming hospitality. Older folks enjoy using the con venient utensils for Sunday night sup pers when Dinah is out. There is no end to the list of dishes that can be prepared a la chafing dish; they are bounded only by one's orig inality. Plenty of butter, a little cream and a variety of seasonings with a va rietv of canned fish, tinned meats, eggs and cheese give a wonderful assortment of fools that will please everyone. There are some improvements in late model chafers, but the cooking plans are the same in the costly ones as in the low priced affairs. The alcohol should be of hest quality and the utensil should sit upon a metal tray to avoid accidents. The actual cooking is done in the F. and M.
