The present mode of life is t'.ie main cause of the premature exhaus tion of both mln dand body of ojt people. Thousands die from diseases which are du.e to nothing else but a weakened, exhausted body. Take care of j ourselves and especially watch your digestion which always shows the condition of your health. Do not whip the orgam to work be cause very soon they would fall down completely. Strengthen your organs and make them fit to work. Use Triner's American Elixir of Bitter Wine for a short time only and watch the effect. You will again enjoy your meals, your digestion will cause you no" trouble, your complexion will be come clear, you will become healthy and strong. Use It In nervousness, rheumatic pains, constant headache, constipation, backache, lack of appe tite, weakness. At drug stores. Jos. Triner, 1333-1339 South Ashland Avenue, Chicago, Illinois. CHRISTMAS WILL BE CELE BRATED HEREJN INDAy Owing to the fact that Christmas falls on Sunday this year, the law makes the following Monday a legal holiday for all purposes of transac tion of public business. No negotia ble note nor bill of exchange can be legally presented and demand for layment can bo made on next Mon day, In consequence of which the banks do not keep their doors open on t.hnt day. The courts are dosed on the same day for similar reasons that the statute expressly provides that courts shall not sit except to rc (elvo a venllct of u Jury already de liberated upon, and that tho ordinary routine of business of tho courts can not be transacted on that day. The government does not deliver letters tn the mall routes on Christmas day, and In consequence tho day following s a holiday for the postofflco depart ment, and the office hero will bo dosed Monday, except as on Sunday. Many of the merchants and busi ness men of the city nave decided to close up next Monday to give the lerks as well as the proprietor of the stores, who have had many stren uous days of Christmas trade to look after, an opportunity for a holiday of rest. The Journal approves of the plan and as other places of business are dosed, with little opportunity to get news, there will be no paper Issued Monday. Don'ts For Clitistmii, Don't forget the baby. Don't think the cost has anything to do with tho sentiment. Don't hesitate about what to give a smoker. Don't spend more than you can afford. Don't talk against the good that Santa Clans does. Don't let your friends show all the generosity. Don't give suggestive presents. Don't get peevish. Don't forget that Christmas Is not complete without candy for the little ones. Don't pass the day figuring up how much It costs.

FOR CHRISTMAS or the il. 11. Danlher was up from his home, near Murray, today, and gave the Journal his annual visit. He came In to pay his taxes and from the treasurer's office direct to the Jour nal to renew his faith In the Old Ro- liable. "Hatty" Is as regular as clock work In his annual visit to this office. He also took home with him quite a little bunch of Christmas goods which he purchased from our merchants. Timely Suggestions Effective Use of Holly and Mistletoe. It Is time now to decorate with gar lands and hang up the holly wreath, and to a housekeeper possessed of some artistic taste and the Christmas spirit the task Is always a congenial one. This year, with Christinas greens co high, the Christmas spirit may be Bomewhat damped, but it cannot be quite extinguished, and most families probably will be able to get a bit of green in honor of the season. If holly wreaths are to be hung In the windows, It Is an excellent plan to hang them outside. They will keep fresh and crisp there and the effect Is just the same as If they were inside. A wreath with red streamers on the door and a few twists of green around the porch pillars give an air of hospi tality to the entrance. In the colonial fireplaces are great possibilities for effective decoration. Stretch a garland the full length of the mantel and at each end ubo a big brass bowl full of holly and mlstle oe. Around the colonial mirror hang a wreath Just Us size, and use a bow of bright red malino as a finishing touch. To ornament the dining room be tween meals In Christmas week, fill a huge silver, glass or brass bowl full of mistletoe, with perky bows of rich red satin ribbon arranged among the sprays. A similar decoration would be effective on the buffet, or If there Is a table light the spray of mistletoe and the red bows could be made Into a sort of overshade. i A GIFT IN MEMORY OF HIS MOTHER Mrs. W. D. Jones has In her posses sion a copy of the Cleveland (Ohio) Plain Dealer of date of December 16, containing a picture of her nephew, Mr. J. H. Wade and a babies' dispen sary, to which Mr. Wade recently gave $100,000 on condition that the new dispensary and milk labratory be dedicated In memory of Mrs. Anna R. Wade, his mother, who died some two months ago. The deceased lady was a sister of Mrs. W. D. Jones and has visited relatives In this city at different times. Mrs. Anna R. Wade In her life time was very active in connection with babies' hospitals and dispen saries, especially the Cleveland Insti tution. She was very fond of babies, and Mr. Wade had been thinking for some time of establishing a memor ial such as his gift has provided for. He wrote the trustees of the Cleve land dispensary a letter making them the proposition that he would give the $100,000 provided a bronz tablet should be placed In the new Institu tion stating that It was dedicated In memory of his mother. The trustees accepted the proposition and the memorial will be placed In the building. K. N. K. Meet. The K. N. K. met with Mrs. J. E. Hathaway on last Thursday after noon. The time was profitably spent In sewing, and sociable conversation. To add to the pleasures of the after noon, Misses Fern Hathaway and May Wolfe gave several piano solos, which were highly appreciated by all present. The club has decided to hold meet ings monthly during the winter months. Our next meeting Is with Mrs. Chas. Schwab, Decembet 22. A general invitation Is extended to all. Remember the date and don't be late. To 1910 we bid adieu, May countless blessings come to you, Throughout the year of 1911, Numberless as the stars of heaven. Muse a moment, think no 111, Bid thy wandering thoughts be still; Softly whisper, gently Bay, "Savior lead me all the way." Keepthem well, that you may do Deeds of kindness, love, and cheer,. Bringing gladness all the year.. , . Time rolls on, how swift It flies! Man does not seem to realize He has no promise of a day To call his own, his vows to pay. E. Z. E's.
