The Statement of This Hyndman Resident will Interest our Readers. Our neighboring town Hyndman, points the way in the words of one of its most respected residents: Mrs. D. F. Bartholamew, Water street, Hyndman, Pa., says: I was in poor health and suffered greatly from pains in my back and sides. I had chills and was often dizzy. Reading a great deal about Doan’s Kidney Pills, I began using them. They brought prompt relief and as 1 continued using them, I steadily improved. I have recommended Doan’s Kidney Pills to many other people and I have never known of a case where they have failed to prove of benefit. Doan’s Kidney Pills made a complete and perma- nent cure in my case and I have had no need of a kidney medicine during the past several years. I willingly confirm my former en- dorsement of Doan’s Kidney Pills, as I know that they are deserving of all the praise given them. For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

A fruit grower from Williamsport, Pa., writes to State Zoologist H. H. Surface, Harrisburg, sending him twigs from his dying peach trees, and asking w’ ot is wrong, and if kerosene emulsion or other oils will delay the growth of trees or vines. To his inquiries Professor Surface replies as follows: ‘““You are right in surmising that kerosene emulsion will check the growth of vegetation. I have seen it do just this thing, and it proves my contention that oils are unsatisfac- tory and unfit to go on vegetation. Of course. where there is nothing more than checking the growth, the damage is not severe, but a material not adapted to plants when used even in small quantity is liaole to be more or less injurious, even though not directly so. *‘Of course it would be possible to reduce the percentage until you would get it down to a point where it would not be liable to check the growth, and the main point then is whether it is killing the pests for which, it is applied. ‘““Your peach trees show the con- dition known as Sunscald. They need more water, as you presume. The soil should have been plowed deeply and frequently culfivated 80 as to lock the moisture down. The De Kalb shale is loose and does not hoid moisture unless well culti- vated. Also, it should have some organic material in it to help it hoid the moisture. The condi- tion of these leaves is due to hot dry weather, considerable sunshine, and the loss of tco much moisture, by evaporating into the atmosphere resulting in what is called sunscald. It can be checked quickly by re- moving some of the superfluous leaves or small branches In such a case as this, slight summer pruning would prove beneficial.’’ ———— eee. Fashion Notes. The new felt hats for morning wear are white, cherry, and emerald. The comfortable tricot corset has taken the place of the stiff corsets. At the present moment, the high stiff dress collar is out of fashion. Parisians are wearing vests of bro- caded silk, velvet, or satin. ‘White satin hats are worn with linen suits ir the morning. A number of the new suits for fall have Russian coats. The latest French blouse is made of flesh-colored tulle combined with dark blue velvet. Many new suits have the long-fit- ted sleeve, and some have the kimono sleeve with the dropped armhole. The chinband will be noticeable on | | hats for afternoon and evening wear. Have a sashin your wardrobe. It can be incorporated with the gown or separate. # Top coats are individualized by beauty of form, material, and color- ings, the Oriental type predominating. One of the newest face veils is made of fine silk tulle in a pale shade of heliotrope with tiny pin dots all over its surface. All the newest Paris models are decollete, and dainty chemisettes are introduced under the loose kimono corsages. Newest shoes may have high Louis XV heels but they have broad soles, and they are mostly laced up over the ankles. Colors are more subdued than they have been. They borrow from the antique tones of tapestries woven centuries ago. It is considered smart to show the feet, therefore skirts of street cos- tumes are short and narrow with an uplift drapery in front. It is correct to wear small diamond shoe buckles, even in the daytime, on white canvas or suede walking shoes. The separate blouse is made of crepe de chine—robin’s egg blue, rose, mauve, and lemon yellow are favorite colors. —_———— Mrs. Thaw Hopeful. Mrs. Mary Copely Thaw, who is spending some time at her summer home near Cresson, is confident that her son Harry will eventually win his fight for freedom. She does not believe the report to the effect that he has collapsed, declaring that he is not built that way, and she re- cently telegraphed Harry to the effect that she expected to see him soon.
