Two years' ago Mrs. Paxton went ~to Longmont, Colo., where she has since made her home with her sons, Charles and John.

Indigestion Ends.

You can eat anything your stomach craves without fear of a case of Indigestion or Dyspepsia, or that ing can ferment or turn into acid or Btomicli^r^"^if~ - wnr _ occassionajly take a little Diapepsin after eating. Your meals will taste good, and any thing you eat will be digested; nothing can ferment or turninto acid or poison or stomach gas, which causes Belching, Dizziness, a feeling of fullness after eating, Nausea, Indigestion (like a lump of lead in the stomach), Biliousness, Heartburn, Water Brash, Pain in Stomach and Intestines or other symptoms. Headaches from the stomach are absolutely unknown where this effective remedy is used. Diapepsin really does all the work of a healthy stomach. It digests,your meals when your stomach can’t. Each triangule will leave nothing to ferment or sour. Get a large 60-cent case of Pape’s Deapepsln from your druggist and start taking today and by tomorrow you will actually brag about your healthy, strong stomach, for you can eat anything and everything you want without the slightest discomfort or misery, and every particle of impurity and gas that is In your Btomach and Intestines is going to be carried away without the use of laxative or any other assistance.

REASON ENTHRONED. Because meats are so tasty they are consumed In great excess. This leads to stomach troubles, biliousness and constipation. Revise your diet, let reason and not a pampered appetite control, then take a few doses of Chamberlain’s Btomach and Liver Tablets and yon will soon be well again. Try it. Foe sale at B. F.

FLOWERS IN THE HOME.

It is a delight at any season to go in a house which is adorned with flowers. The blooms, with their suggestion of garden and field, give a touch of beauty that nothing else dan yield. Yet though flowers are the most beautiful of decorations, their full effect can be gained only when taste is exercised in arrangement. Perhaps- one should be reminded, ‘ first of.all, that it is a mistake to have in the house strongly scented . flowers. Certainly such flowers should not be placed in small rooms or In rooms where people are to be for any length of time. They should absolutely be prohibited from bedrooms. As to the living room or the dining room, if it is summer and there is plenty of fresh air so the air cannot become heavily laden with perfume the objection is not so great. Another thing to consider in selecting flowers for .the home is whether any of the household is addicted to rose colds or hay fever. If so, do not have indoors golden rod, day lillies or other flowers which give off much pollen. The influence of the Japanese had much to do with bringing about more pleasing and effective floral* arrangements. The Japanese do not put many flowers in one vase, nor do they combine different varieties in the same vase. A grouping of three flowers In one vase is a favorite with the Japanese.——■— m —-

Study to follow nature In your arrangement of flowers. If flowers grow in close clusters, act on this hint in their use In the house. If they grow singly, do not mass them clofeely; at any rate, do not have such flowers of uniform height In the vase, and, however close the stems may be. let the blossoms spread. To insure this spreading, the Japanese evolved the flower holder. It Is really a perforated metal weight, which rSst.s In the bottom of Che vase or bowl. Usstally those of Japanese fasEloning are of grotesque design, the dragon or the turtle favorites, tato the openings the stalks or stems of the flowers are placed, the weight of the holder being sufficient to counterbalance that of the blosscuns. A flower-holder can be easily ana? quickly fashioned out of tSea lead. Some flow ers demand an additional: touch of green, while others, such as the chrysanthemum, and sweet pea, are quite sufficient In themselves,. A bit of asparagus or maidbnhair form always adds a decided touch l to tSe carnations.

Better Talk Too Much.

Than to be a Stiff- Unbending Stiff; The sociable soul, who is unhappy when alone, and who if he is unaccompanied by friends will insist upsn scraping an acquaintance with strangers, has long been the subject of the humorist’s pen. So-called humorists delight in writing conversations between such men and tSe dignified gentleman, - wsfco is“annby«r~by the impertinence of the stranger. So, also, the woman who hangs ever the back fence- talking to her neighbors, while her dishes are" ,unwashed, gets a generous share of condemnation. Perhaps she does, deserve ft, but perhaps not. Commend me to these gossiping creatures rather than to those stiff, unbending stiffs, who haven’t a word or a smile for anyone outside the circle of their ©wn small world- The latter are the people who would rather be lampooned by the jokesnsilhs; the conventional toplofty men and -women who are afraid to bow to a stranger, even though he lives next door, because his name Is not in. the blue book or his wife is not a member of the patriotic societies car does not belong to any of the prominent gambling associations, commonly known as bridge elubs. It is far pleasanter to live day by day alongside of a woman who talks too much than ak>ng side cf one who is so engrossed and wrapped up in herself and her possessions, that she cannot talk at all. or one who will pass you week after week, knowing that you live just a few blocks away, and yet cannot even unbvnd enough, to say good morning. Of course, talkative women are of>times a nuisance, but at least you are sure they have the milk of human kindness in their breast. Even if it does make you wince occasionally to have them put you on a level with themselves, that Is not half so bad as to be held inferior tSy the other class, who ara really not half bo cultured and well-bred as you are. Moat every one has neighbors who belong to either of these two classes, and, instead of aping after the snobby woman, it would be better to be contented with the talkative woman and cultivate her even though for a neighbor only. Besides there is the Christian side of the question. Christianity means nothing if it does not mean helpfulness, and how can a person who shuts himself up and never gets into the life of his neighbor help anyone, not excepting himself. A word for the man who “Jollies” and Ik companionable. He has twloe the Influence of his silent brother and three times as many friends. Therefore, ye calms, “Jolly up.”
