It’s fierce. 1 mean It’s distressing!" ••I never noticed you talking slang.’' M ld Medbury ‘Besides, everybody uUks a little slang nowadays What’s tbs principal noise about?” There you go now!" said his wife •baipiy "You talk that way twotblrda of the time and I can’t help falling for some of It myself—1 would My uuroasclously assimilating expressions from your conversation. Wbeu any of my friends call I’m in s nervous tremor all the time for fear I’ll forget myself and make some horrible break They're not used to It.” “Oh. I guess you’re not so bad.” protested Medbury. “They can stand for anything you hand them without straining Themselves. I’d like to see any of ' >ur set that you don’t shape up wb on the conversation thing »b»n . put yourself to It.’’ “Thai a the trouble,” went on Mrs. Medbury and that’s why I wish you would cut out some of your slang Then In time 1 could break myself of the babit. Only this afternoon Mrs Miggles and Mrs. Jasper were here msking arrangements about the lawn party at the church next week, and we got to talking about the servant girl problem. I told them how annoying Minnie has been and how we planned to let her go and In my absent-minded way, what do you think It was that 1 said?” T couldn’t hit It In a thousand yeats." bald Medbury. “Come across with tt.” “Well. I was eo embarassed afterward I could scarcely talk to them.’’ went on his wife. “I was telling how Minnie was growing more Impertinent every day, and I said: ‘I think she knows that I’m fixing to put the rollers under her.’" Medbury pounded his knee with his open palm and shrieked with laughter Mrs Medbury bit her lip and frowned "You see?” she exclaimed “That l the way it goes, and It’s all youi fault. You’ve gtmplv got to talk better Knrllst) around the house, be cause I'm sure all the women 1 know
are beginning to get wised up on me, and the first thing I know I’ll be getting myself ditched —I mean snubbed and Ignored, it’s really a serious thing, John, and I don’t see where you get the big laugh out of It.” "Neither do I,” admitted Medbury. ‘’I’m trying to be serious, no matter how painful. You know, I ain't there with that long-faced stuff very much, but I’m really going to try and help you out. 1 can see where you’re likely to get in wrong with those dames that aren’t Joseph to your line of talk, and it isn’t right. I appreciate that. I’m going to chop.” “Oh. will you try, John?” exclaimed Mrs. Medbury. eagerly. “That’s fine and dandy! We’ve simply got to frame tt up some way so we won’t use so much slang Don’t you see It my way?” "Surest thing you know, kiddo!” exclaimed Medbury, enthusiastically “You can count on me being there with my hair and braid when it comes to the reform gag Nothing but the purest wells of KngHsh undefiled for mine after this- Just v atch my smoke!” “That’s the real goods!” said his wife In delight “Now I know we can put it over!” CONGRESIONAL CANNERY. Proposed by Old-Time Congressmen to Improve Congressional Record. The campaign in congress against misuse of the Congressional Record has called forth many suggestions, not the least popular of which is for setting a time limit on every speak er. The man who cannot explain an idea in an hour, it Is held, will “be sent to the foot of the class” and labeled a bore, to be called upon only during the filibustering season. A request was made by one of the old-time congressmen for the Initiation of a "Congressional Cannery.” Webster's reply to Hayne, Patrick Henry’s speech and certain excerpts from the Declaration of Independence will be Cue first to get “canned," as they are drawn upon nearly every time a congressman engages in a debate Twenty years ago the proceedings of the senate and the house did not begin to occupy as much space as today. and it is felt that the movement to keep -the records down will result in a much more interesting and accurate Congressional Record for future generations.

There is little sleep, little rest, little peace for many a sufferer from kidney trouble. Life is one continual round of pain. You can’t rest at night when there’s kidney backache. You suffer twinges and “stabs” of pain, annoying urinary disorders, lameness and nervousness. You can’t be comfortable at work with darting pains and blinding dizzy spells. Neglect these ailments and serious troubles may follow. Begin using Doan’s Kidney Pills at the first kign of disorder. Thousands have testified to their merit. Greencastle readers will find convincing proof in the following testimony: Mrs. W. M. Sears, South St., Danville, Ind., says: “For some time my kidneys troubled me. The least exposure caused pains in my loins and sides. I feit drowsy and had dizzy spells. On a friend’s advice, I used Doan’s Kidney Pills and they relieved me at once. Others of my family have taken Doan’s Kidney Pills with good results.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Sears had.

Many other pretty floral designs might he used in place of wild roses, and on grounds of various colors.

The milk that it gets, though a liquor, does not satisfy its thirst. It should he given water at least three times a day, and this water should be nearly, if not quite, free of organisms. The water that comes from the average city main or country spring is alive with microscopic plants and animals, even when it seems clear and sparkling. These minute organisms, ns a rule, are harmless to adults, but in the delicate stomach of the baby they are apt to cause disturbances, and so they must be eliminated. The best way to get rid of them is to allow the water to boil twenty minutes After that, let It cool and store it in i leau, well corked bottles which have been previously immersed in boiling water for five minutes. Glass stoppers are better than corks. Boiled water is tasteless and insipid because of the absence of air-bubbles, hut the baby seldom notices it. It is best drunk out of a thoroughly clean nursing-bottle. Offer water to the infant every four hours, and let it drink as much as it wants. The supply for each day should be boiled in (lie morning Under no circumstances should water be kept more than a day.

Memorials for Housekeepers. There are few servants who become fixtures in families in this country. It is different In Europe, where there is a class raised to expect nothing above domestic drudgery, and it Is In tills fact lies the reason for the comparative absence of a servant girl problem in the Old World. They value good servants over there, too, as is shown by the placing of a tablet in St. Helen's, Blahopagate, England, In memory of a nurse, who spent thirtynine years in the service of a family named Wigram. Beside this tablet is another set up sixty years ago to commemorate the forty-one years’ service of a housekeeper in the same family. Forty-one years a servant? Is It not better with us in democratic America?
