Durand, Wis.—“ I am the mother of

45 and had the

A Massachusetts 'Woman Writes:
Blackstone, Mass. — “My troubles
were from my age, and I felt awfully
sick for three years. I had hot flashes
often and frequently suffered from
pains. I took Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound and now am well.”

Blackstone, Mass.
Such warning symptoms as sense of
suffocation,hot flashes,headaches, back
_*ches,dread of impending evil, timidity,
"sounds in the ears, palpitation of the
heart, sparks before the eyes, irregu
larities, constipation, variable appetite,
weakness and dizziness, should be heeded
by middle-aged women. Lydia E. Pink
ham’s Vegetable Compound has carried
many women safely through this crisis.
Restful.

Feel All Used Up?
Does your back ache constantly? Do
you have sharp twinges when stooping
or lifting? Do yon feel all used up—
as if you could just go no further?
Kidney weakness brings great discom
fort. What with backache, headache,
i dizziness and urinary disturbances it is
no wonder one feels all used up.
Doan's Kidney Pills have cured thou
sands of just such cases. It’s the best
recommended special kidney remedy.

i CALLED AN IDEAL KITCHEf
i -
! Snowy White, and Not a Single Dark
Cupboard in Apartment Marks Up
To-Date Household "Workshop."
The following description of the j
kitchen in the home of a woman famed
for her interest in household efficiency
is given to show what Intelligence,
combined with a reasonable amount |
of money and a determination to have
I one’s workshop as up-to-date a place
I as possible, can do.
The kitchen is white from ceiling
to tiles and contains no dark cup
boards, but in their plafc; shelves and
cabinets. On the shelves at one side
are 50 glass jars of graduated sizes,
each one labeled with the name of a
comestible or condiment. Opposite
these are rows of fireproof glass bak
ing dishes for baking bread, cakes,
pies, custards; the old-fashioned tin
affairs have been discarded as un
sightly and insanitary. Instead of
granite ware there are files of bright
aluminum sauce puns, reflecting points
of sunlight which streams in through
four large windows curtained with
dimity. Under these shelves is a por
celain sink 40 inches high. No tired,
round shoulders in this kitchen, yon
see.
Near this stands a gas range with
an automatic electric pilot—light and
glass doored ovens with thermometers.
Four feet above the floor and near the
range rests a modern steamer, which
will cook an entire dinner over one
gas jet. In the middle of the room
is a glass-topped table, and, sitting
there, the person who is doing the,
ordering can see at a glance what is
lacking in the glass jars. The maid
supplies the list of groceries which
need replenishing at the beginning of
each month and these are purchased
in quantities at the most economi
j cal prices.
' RECIPE FOR EXCELLENT HASH
—
Mixture of Ingredients Has Been
Called by Its Admirers the
“Best Ever Made.’*
First of all. fry an onion, finely
! chopped, in one dunce of margarine or
dripping, till it is a golden brown, then
add one ounce of flour, and after stir
ring well together for five minutes add
[ half a pint of stock, well flavored with
vegetables, two or three cloves, salt if
necessary, and four tablespooufuls of
catchup. Stir for a few minutes over
the fire, then flavor further with a tea
spoonful or more of brown sauce or
meat extract. Let the sauce boil fast
• over tlie fire, so as to reduce it a little,
then add 'some browning. Strain the
sauce into a small shallow stewpau
and put it on one side to get cold. In
the meantime cut some meat, and not
j too small slices from your meat, let
ting them be all as much as possible
of the same size, and remove every
| particle of skin, fat, gristle or burnt
portion, as it is the latter which gives
the “warmed-up’’ taste that is so un
pleasant. Wien the sauce is cold lay
in it the pieces of meat, cover up the
saucepan and in about an hour’s time
put it at the eoruer of the stove, warm
i ing by very gradual degrees. If al
| lowed to boil, the meat is sure to be
I tough. As soon as it is thoroughly hot
i it is ready to be dished up, with the
I sauce poured over it, and It should be
. surrounded with fingers of bread, fried
a golden color. The addition of a little
finely chopped parsley greatly im
j proves the look of the dish.
Mint Ices.
To make a refreshing mint ice, rinse
; a small handful of fresh mint leaves
j through several waters, then bruise
i thoroughly and steep for an hour in
I a cupful of lemon and orange juice
• mixed. In the meantime prepare a
; sirup of one pound of granulated su
. gar and one pint of water. Add the
| mint, strain and freeze.
Mix the juice of two oranges and
four lemons with six tablespoonfuis
of sugar sirup, using four tablespoon
fuls of the mixture over each glassful
of shaved Ice. Place sprigs of mint
on top of the ice and fill the glasses
with mineral water.
Sanitary Kitchen Shelf.
Rip the oilcloth and the perforated
paper off the kitchen shelves and paint
them if you value cleanliness and
health. Water bugs and roaches and
ants make the coziest of homes in
the warm corners of covered shelves,
while they find odorous, freshly paint
ed shelves far too cheerless for domes
tic purposes. By the time the paint
Is dry the prospective tenants will have
settled elsewhere. And recollect the
saving in paper, bug powder and time
in the cleaning.
Deviled Filets of Chicken.
Cut the raw meat into long, thin
strips, or use the legs of cooked tur
key. Dip in melted butter and boil un
til cooked or heated through. Place
on a hot serving dish and spread with
hot mixture. Stir in two tablespoon
fuls of Worcestershire sauce or mush
room catchup, and a dash of salt. These
! hot seasonings are a matter of taste
largely, and may be added separately
if preferred. The meat may be gashed
and laid in the deviled mixture before
broiling.
Steamed Peach Roll.
Sift two cupfuls of flour with one
scant teaspoonful of salt and three ta
blespoonfuls of baking powder, rub in
one rounded tablespoonful of butter
and moisten with enough milk to make
a rather stiff dough. Place on a
floured board, pat into rectangular
shape, cover with sliced peaches, dust
with flour and sugar, roll into a loose
roll, pinch the edges together, wrap in
a floured cloth and steam one hour.
Serve with peach sirup, slightly thick
ened with arrowroot or cornstarch.
Excellent Clam Soup.
One quart of milk, four small pota
toes cut into small dice and boiled in
water until soft then drain, add milk
and when it comes to a boil add 25
clams chopped fine. Stir occasionally,
as it burns quickly. In the meantime
j cream one tablespoonful of butter and
one of flour together and stir in soup
until all is dissolved. Add chopped
parsley, pepper and salt to taste. This
ia delicious and can be made quickly.

DADDY’S EVENING

CROSS GEESE.
“Mrs. Goose,” said Daddy, “was sit
ting on some Eggs. She w<is waiting
for the little Geese to break through i
and come peeping out into the Bam- j
yard.
“ ‘I would like to get a cool Drink i
of Water from the Stream,’ said Mrs. I
Goose. ‘Whatever shall I do? I j
can’t leave these Eggs! And some- !
how, I am very hot and my Throat is i
very dry.’
“ ’Go along and get your Drink from |
the Stream,’ said her husband, Mr. j
Gander, for he was very devoted to j
Mrs. Goose.
“ ‘Will you look after these fine
Eggs then?’ said Mrs. Goose.
“ ‘Indeed I will,’ said Mr. Gander
proudly.
“Now Mrs. Goose and Mr. Gander
were very fond of each other but they
did not have any Friends in the Barn
yard. They were cross to all the oth
er Animals and no matter if they
were treated just as kindly as could
be, they were extremely disagreeable.
“Mrs. Goose had waddled along on
her flat, queer Feet to the Stream.
She was having a fine time—hut" Mr.
Gander, back in the Barnyard was as
angry as could be!
“Mr. Gander was a very fine-look
ing Goose. lie was white but bis
wings were brown. Mrs. Goose was
entirely white.
“ Good afternoon. Mr. Gander,’ said
Mr. Peacock, as lie walked through
the Barnyard. ‘Are you keeping
House? Where is your Wife?’
“ ‘It's not your affair whether 1 am
keeping House or not, and I won’t tell
you where my Wife is. You're an in
quisitive old Bird—that’s what you
are.'
•'And Mr. Gander beat prrr Mr. Pea
cock with his wings, and gave him a
horrid twig with his sharp beak.
“‘There!’ he said. ‘I hope that will
teach you a lesson not to come med- ;
dling in other Folks’ business.’
“ ‘It will teach me,’ wailed Mr. Pea- j
cock, ‘never to speak to you again. I :
didn’t believe you could be ns cross I
as the other Animals said you were.
1 just thought I’d be friendly and
come and call—and invite you to call
ou us some day.’
‘“All you wanted.’ said Mr. Gan
der, ‘was to steal the Eggs!’
“ ‘You old silly Gander,’ said Mr.
Peacock. ‘As if I wanted a lot of lit
tle Geese coming out of their shells!
But if you think that way, I’ll leave
you. And this I will say ;■ That now
I see why you all belong to the Goose
family—for not only are you very
cross but you're very, very silly!
Good afternoon,’ and Mr. Peacock,
feeling very hurt from the shaking
Mr. Gander had given him, strutted
off.
“Pretty soon Mrs. Goose came back
from the Stream. ‘Well, my dear,’ she i
Walks With Mother and Daddy.
said, ‘I had a fine Drink and I went
in wading too!’
“And then she noticed that Mr. Gan
der was looking angry and very much
ruffled.
“‘What has happened. Mr. Gan
der? You look as if you had been in *
a fight.'
“‘Well, I gave that old Peacock fel
low a good piece of my mind,’ he said,
‘and not only that—I gave him a bite
with my beak and a thoroughly good
spanking with my wings. He won’t
come here again.’
“ ‘Good!’ said Mrs. Goose. ‘I do
hate Visitors.’
‘“And how are the Eggs?' she
added".
“‘Safe,’ said Mr. Gander.
“The very nest day the finest set
of Geese came out of their shells and
waddled after their Mother wherever
she went. Mr. Gander kept very busy ;
looking for food for the Brood.
“But every single one of the Geese j
were brought up tc be cross and to j
hate all the other Animals in the
Barnyard. They played by themselves
or took walks with their Mother and
Daddy.
“Sometimes they would fly around
for exercise /Hid then their Mother
and Daddy would admire them—for
they were ail the most beautiful
cream-colored Geese you can imagine
and their wings were brown.
“Of course tlieir Feet were ugly—
but the Mother and Daddy never no
ticed that. And- why should they?
For they had just the same kind of
Feet!
“But Mr. Peacock never called on
Mr. Gander again—and all over the
Barnyard Mrs. Goose, Mr. Gander and
the little Geese were known as ‘that
cross Goose Family!’”
Her Choice.
“When I am big, mamma, I’m going
to marry a doctor or a minister.”
“Why, my dear?”
“’Cause if I marry a doctor I can
get well for nothing, and if I marry
a minister I can be good for nothing.”
—Woman's Journal.
If One, Why Not the Other?
Little Mabel had just recovered from
an attack of the chicken pox. “Well,”
she informed her mother, “I’m glad
that is over. Now what do I have
next, turkey pox or duck pox?”
ROLE WOS FORCED ON DADDY1
Really Had No Desire to Act as Fa
ther to the Girl, But He Had
Been Forestalled.
The dowagers and chaperons whis- j
pered their surprise that so young and i
so pretty a girl should have devoted j
herself the whole evening to a man so I
much her senior. True, he danced j
well enough and was known as a man
of many millions. Still they had never
thought Meta mercenary.
Hiiif way through the evening the
couple disappeared onto a balcony. The
girl sat down and the man stood gaz
ing down at her. Without the slight
est warning lie asked her to be his
wife. He was a widower,-as she knew.
“I wanted to please you,” slie said, !
“but I did not expect this.”
“It is the unexpected that happens,” j
he said with a smile.
“I'm sorry,” she said, “and I'm glad
at the same time. 1 have been trying ;
to make you like me.” *
“Why?”
“I like you so much, as a father—”
“Thanks,” he interrupted; "I'm not i
decrepit yet.”
“Of course not. But I came here j
solely to meet and he introduced to
you. Why ? Because last night I
married your son.”
"Savee! Daylight” 40 Years.
Monson, in Maine, wonders why
there is so much ado about the “day
light saving” plan. According to the
Youth's Companion, about 40 years ago
someone in the town suggested that it t
would he a good thing for the work
ers in the slate quarries to gain an j
hour of daylight by going to work on
hour earlier in the morning and stop
ping work an hour earlier at night, j
The town adopted the suggestion, but
instead of changing Hie working hours
it set the clocks ahead. Through all ;
the years since then the clocks of i
Morfson have been an hour ahead of
the clocks in other Maine towns.
