I OWE MY HEALTH To Lydia E. Pinkh&m’s Vegetable Compound. Washington Park, lIL —“I am ths mother of four children and have suffered with female trouble, backache, nervous spells and the blues. My children’s loud talking and romping would make me so nervous I could just tear everything to pieces and I would ache all over and feel so sick that I would not want anyone to talk to me at times. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and Liver Pills restored me to health and I want to thank you for the good they have done me. I have had quite a bit of trouble and worry but it does not affect my youthful looks. My friends say 4 Why do you look so young and well ? ’ I owe it all to the Lydia E. Pinkham remedies." —Mrs. Robt. Stopiel, Moore Avenue, Washington Park, Illinois. We wish every woman r who suffer* from female troubles, nervousness, backache or the blues could see the letters written by women made well by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. If you have any symptom about which you would l?ke to know write to the Lydia E. Pirlkham Medicine Co., Lynn, Mass., for helpful advice given free of charge.
Wanted, an Elephant.
The Hasty Pudding club of Harvard was recently reported to be in some distress because of the lack of two sturdy actors capable of good team work in playing the part of an elephant in the club’s annual spring show. The original selection for the front legs was dismissed from college on account of low marks, and the hind legs became discouraged and resigned. Probably a pecular combination of athletic skill and comic talent is required for the proper representation of a stage elephant, and it may be a thankless task that college amateurs In general are unwilling to tackle. An actor disguised as one-half of an elephant seems to lose much of his individuality. But the fore and aft portion of a quadruped offers a fine chance for an ambitious young actor to start a brilliant career. Henry E. Dixey began his stage life as the hind legs of the heifer In “Evangeline.”— Providence Journal.
His Mistake.
“Husband, what did you do with those perforated piano rolls?” "I tought they were a lot of peek-a-boo shirtwaists and L put ’em in the wardrobe.” Honor compels us to tell a man his faults to his face. But, ‘‘safety first” —use the telephone!
Stop That Ache! Don’t worry about a bad back. Get rid of it. Probably your kidneys are out of order. Resume sensible habits and help the kidneys. Then, kidney backache will go; also the dizzy spells, lameness, stiffness, tired feelings, nervousness, rheumatic pains and bladder troubles. Use Doan’s Kidney Pills. Thousands recommend them. An lowa Case tMrs. H. T. Sharp, 705 W. Lincoln Highway, Jefferson, lowa, says: “I suffered terr lbly from kidney trouble and words couldn’t express what I w e n t thrdtigh. My back felt as though it was pulled apart and I never had a moment’s rest, day or night. Inflamer nearly killed me. I doctored and tried nearly everything, but kept getting worse.

IN SUMMER STYLES
CITY BHOPS HAVE BEGUN TO PROVIDE FOR CUSTOMERS. Adaptations of French Models Are to Be Seen on All Sides—Prevalence of Satin la Viewed With Some Significance. The difference between a slim and a full purse is the only decisive factor in changing clothes. It is to assist those on slender incomes to keep apace with changing fashions that the shops offer, in large quantities, low-priced copies of high-priced models. This work or reproduction has already begun in the large shops of New York. The buyers have been returning from Paris with stocks of French ideas, to help women change their for the summer. In addition to this, the towns are flooded with cheap copies and adap-

Some of the adaptations are admirable and suit the masses far better than the frocks which were made in Paris and which were intended as suggestions to
HATS TO MATCH THE EYES
Pretty Notion of the Season Popular With Mothers Who Are Blessed With Little Girls. Sa ________ Mothers, this season, are adopting the rather pretty notion of matching the hats worn by their little girls with the wearer’s eyes. The- brown-eyed youngsters have hats of Tuscan straw and blue-eyed youngsters wear white Milan with blue ribbon trimming exactly matching the gray blue or sea blue shade of the iris. Black hats are for children with gray or hazel eyes. Children’s hats, like the hats worn by women this year, have rather high crowns, but the head size is always large, so that the hat slips down well over the hair. Nothing is uglier than a small, high-perched crown on a childish head. The smaller the hat Itself the lower it must descend to be smart. Very soft Milans are worn by children who can afford the best in millinery, and there are new plaid Mila- ns > made of strands of colored straw, that are very distinctive. Some of these are In the Glengarry or Scotch shape. A red and white plaid Glengarry is trimmed with a band and streamers of red velvet ribbon and a cluster of bright red cherries near the front. Sailor hats of colored Milan with crown top and trimmed band of colored glazed kid are also very smart. Children’s sailor hats this year are saucy and dashing in shape, especially those of the jack tar or coast guard type. Picture hats for special wear are of Leghorn, or very fine white Milan hemp, with wide, supple brims and rather low crowns. A band of black velvet ribbon tied in a small bow, with long streamer ends, and a single rose, hand-made, of silk, constitute a modish trimming for such a hat.
FITTING. JEWELS TO FROCK
Ornaments of a. Distinctive Sort Are Being Made to Go With the Costume. For a long time there has been much talk anent the fact that jewelry, to be most effective, should be chosen with especial reference to the frock with Which It Is to be worn. The intrinsic value of jewels means less and less, and their decorative value means more. At least the jewelry makers have realized the trend of popular opinion—and the result is jewelry of distinctive sort, made especially to bring ont the best points of summer frocks. This new jewelry is not expensive ; the whole object of Its being is to have U Inexpensive enough so that different pieces may be worn with different frocks. Bnt it is - very pretty and very effective. There are rings, there are pins, there are bracelets and pendants and rfiwina. And they are all made to

buyers rather than offerings to individual women. We are now able to select in the thin fabrics, suitable for summer, a vast variety of gowns -and suits that originally appeared in dark and thicker materials. As an example of this, there Is the immense output of satiQ clothes since the middle of May. This altogether delightful fabrie was not especially featured in the February and March models, but the French mills have turned out great quantities of It In the early spring, for Paris has been sending over her newest ideas worked out in satin for two months. The incoming of this material is re* ceived with satisfaction and it has significance. Satisfaction comes from the fact that satin is cool, easily pressed and serves several purposes. The significance lies in the fact that satin does not lend itself to outstanding drapery, and the limpness with which it falls against the figure suggests that our new clothes may have fullness, but not extension. Strange to say, taffeta has given way to satin for day usage, but it holds Its own for the evening. Women who dress well are buying morning frocks of dark-blue and stone-gray charmeuse. These are made with the simplicity that now characterizes the best of French gowns for French women, and they present a most alluring contrast to the overtrimmed and- overlooped gowns that have been offered us for a year. They have small bodices, usually fastened down the front with satin covered buttons, sometimes in the color of the gown, again, in an opposing color. The long, slightly loose, sleeves are finished with turned-over cuffs of white organdie, often built up from three and four layers, which is a Cheruit trick of -trimming a sleeve that was advanced two years ago. One of the prettiest of the motor caps offered to devotees of the “machine” Is shown in the illustration. (Copyright, 1816, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate.)
There Is a new double belt in sports skirts which adds quite a little dash to them. The first belt is a regulation one about the waist; the second, of the same width, goes about the hips neither tightly nor loosely, and is often run through tiny straps to hold it on. Such a belt can be tightened up so the skirt fullness does not fly out unnecessarily.
emphasize different color schemes. Many of the pendants are elaborately set, little round or oval pieces being set on criss-cross backgrounds of silver or black enamel. They hang from silver or black chains in most effective fashion. Enamel and the cheaper stones are largely used for this new jewelry, which deserves attention from every woman who likes the details of her costume to be just right.
SPORTS COSTUME
Attractive sports costume of purple and tan checked pongee trimmed with cream-colored buttons. The mammoth pockets are an unusual feature. The suit is simple and natty and is the most cooling of sport costumes. It Is especially the thing when playing tennie or some other athletic game. The hat Is of leghorn and Is trimmed with a heavy straw braiding.

CANADIAN CROPS EXCELLENT
Returning Tourists Speak Wefl of Their Treatment in - Canada. The Canadian Government, having made extensive preparations during the last few years to Impart to the National Park system a degree of comfort and pleasure to the visitor, combining the best efforts of man with the very best gifts of creation, has now the satisfaction of seeing an appreciation of the efforts they have made. Tourists returning from a trip over the Canadian Pacific, the Grand Trunk Pacific and the Canadian Northern railways speak enthusiastically of the beauties that are revealed as these roads enter and pass through the mountains. The Government has spent enormous sums of money laying out roads, and developing easy means of access to glacier, hill, valley, lake and Btream. For what purpose? That the wonders that Canada possesses in its natural parks may become more easily accessible and afterward talked about, that a tourist travel through Canada would result Tourist travel means business, and it is,, business that Canada seeks. To make it even more easy for this travel, the Government has taken pains to make every step of the tourist’s entry Into Canada one that will give the very least degree of trouble. On crossing the border, there is only the ordinary examination of baggage, and the only precaution is that in the case of foreign aliens, and even In their case there is no difficulty when the officials are satisfied that they are not attempting entry as enemies. Although officials of the Government have taken every means to bring to the attention of the tourist and others that no difficulty could be placed In the way of their admission, there still remained doubt in the minds of some. Only the other day the Government took action again, and authorized the statement that no measures taken for recruiting the forces either have been or will be applied to any persons who are not ordinarily resident in the Dominion. Nor Is it the Intention to ask for volunteers except from among British subjects, resident In Canada. Moreover, the Military Service Act, under which conscription is applied in Great Britain, affects only persons “ordinarily resident in Great Britain.” Americans and British subjects resident In the United States who desire to visit Canada will find no more trouble at the border than they have experienced in the past, and upon arriving they will be made as welcome aa_ever. War conditions of any kind will pot Inconvenience or Interfere with them.
The immigration authorities suggest that, as a precaution against Inconvenience, naturalized Americans whose country of origin was one of those at war with the British empire, should provide themselves with their certificates of naturalization. Now that It is impossible to visH Europe, ‘he planning of your vacation trip through Canada is one to give consideration to. The Government has taken an active Interest in its National Parks in the heart of the Rocky mountains. These can be reached by any of the lines of railways, and the officials at these parks have been advised to render every attention to the visiting tourists, who in addition to seeing the most wonderful scenery in the world —nothing grander—nothing better —have excellent wagon and motor roads, taking them into the utter re. cesses of what was at one time considered practically Inaccessible. In addition to this the tourist will not be Inactive to the practical possibilities that will be before him as h« passes 6ver the great plains of tb« Western Provinces. The immensr wheat fields, bounded by the horizon, no matter how far you travel. The wide pasture lands, giving home and food to thousands of heads of horse* and cattle. The future of a country that he before only heard of but knew so little about, will be revealed to him in the most wonderful panorama, and Imprinted in the lens of his brain in such a way that he will bring back with him the story of the richness ol Agricultural Western Canada. And he will also have had an enjoyabl* outing.—Advertisement

Proverbially an Irish soldier has many lives. One of them fancied he had long enough to live to comply witlr the demand which a Frehch mother made upon him’'thus, “If you kill the kaiser, you shall have my daughter.” He was also an Irishman who said of a glimpse he had of a Russian Guard regiment.

DINER SURE OF ONE THING
Whoever Paid for Meal Party Had Consumed, Most Certainly It Was Not He. “Talking about good dinners,” said the Yankee traveler, slowly, "I remember one I had in Chicago. I went into a slap-up restaurant with some chums and ordered the finest thing in dinners. Then, when the bill came around, we couldn’t decide who was to pay. They all wanted to, and so did I.” "Very awkward for you all,” agreed one of his listeners, skeptically. “Waal, yes,” continued the man from the States; “as we couldn’t settle the matter, I proposed that we should blindfold the waiter, and then whichever one he caught would have to pay the bill.” “A very good Idea,” said another listener, stifling a yawn. “Whom did he catch?” “I dunno,” replied the Yankee, briefly; “but he ain’t caught me yet”— London Tit-Bits.
