True Economy.

The cheapest baking powder made is Cleveland not because its first cost is less than that of others, but because it is stronger.

Instead of heaping teaspoonfuls of other baking powders, use only rounded spoonfuls of Cleveland and you will find that a can of Cleveland's will last almost as long as two pounds of low-priced powders.

Besides, Cleveland's is a pure cream of tartar powder and you run no risk of injuring the health of your family.

What Shall We Do?

A serious and dangerous disease prevails in this country, dangerous because so deceptive. It comes on so slowly yet surely, that it is often firmly seated before we are aware of it.

The name of this disease, which may be divided into three distinct stages, is. First, Kidney trouble, indicated by pain in the back, rheumatism, lumbago, frequent desire to urinate, often with a burning sen aation, the flow of urine being* copious or scant with strong odor.

If allowed to advance, this reaches the Second stage, or Bladder trouble, with heavy pain in the abdomen low down between the navel and water passage, increasing desire to urinate, with scalding sensation in passing, small quantities being passed with difficulty, sometimes necessary to draw with instruments. If uric acid or gravel is formed, it will prove dangerous if neglected.

The Third stage is Bright's Disease. There is comfort in knowing that Dr. Kilmer, the great kidney and bladder specialist, has discovered a remedy famous for its marvelous cures of the mosf distressing cases and known as Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root.

It is sold by all druggists. As a proof of the wonderful virtues of this great discovery, Swamp Root, a sample bottle and book of valuable information will be sent absolutely free by mail on application to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghampton, N. Y. When writing kindly mention that you read this liberal offer in

Mother and Child.

I beg of you to think nbout your child before its birth—think the best thoughts of which you arc capable—fix your mind steadily on a high destiny for tho future man or woman and shape its will to noble ends. Think about tho baby while you nourish its life from your own think lovingly, think deeply pour into the slumbering soul all tho vigor and vitality that are in you to give. Play with tho children all through the symbolic age, tho kindergarten age enter as fully and as heartily as you can into their world which is not at all your world. If you who read this fancy that it needs no expenditure of brain, force to play with tho baby, Froebol's "Mother Play" book is a good one for you to begin with. Do not even allow yourself to put them to bed and hear them "say their prayers" with your own head full of something else. The.bedtimo houi is tho hour that should bo sacred to intimate confidences and closo communion botween mother and child.—Elalno Goodale Eastman in Woman's Home Companion.

Economy,

What are you going to do about the salary that is duo you?'' asked tho leading lady. "Nothing," answered Mr. Stormington Barnes. "Aren't you at least going to stand the manager up and give him a talking to?" "No, madam. I am determined not to assist him any further in getting something for nothing. I expect people to pay to hear mo declaim."—Washington Star.

Pianos and Organs

Ever made in this city. We have been advised by the company to put prices on every Piano and Organ in stock, regardless of cost of manufacturing, that will make them sell quick, which we have done, and which will readily convince all sane people who will give the matter consideration enough to call and investigate that now is the Golden Opportunity of a lifetime to purchase a Fine Piano or Organ. We positively make the prices only on instruments now in stock, which consists of many different designs of cases, finished in all the fancy veneers, such as

SAN DOMINGO MAHOGANY, FRENCH BURL WALNUT, GOLDEN OAK, EBONIZED, and others.

Do not wait until the last day of the sale, but try to be the first, as those who come early will have the advantage of a larger number to select from.
