FOR EVERY FAMILY MEDICINE CHEST i I To the head of every family the health of its different members is most important, and the value of an agreeable laxative that is certain in Its effect is appreciated. One of the most popular remedies in the family medicine chest is a combination of simple laxative herbs svith pepsin that Is known to druggis*" ?nd physicians as Dr. Caldwell's Syru* Pepsin. This preparation is mild and gentle in its action on the bowels, yet positive in its effect. A dose of Syrup Pepsin at night means relief next morning, while its tonic properties tone up and strengthen the muscles of stomach, liver and bowels so that these organs are able in a short time to again per form their natural functions without help. Druggists everywhere sell Dr. Cald well's Syrup Pepsin in 50c and $1.00 bottles. If you have never tried this simple, inexpensive, yet effective remedy, write to Dr. W. B. Caldwell, ... ?? tii 201 Washington si., juomrct?*u. m., and ask for a sample bottle. Dr. Cald well will be glad to send It without any expense to you whatever. WHAT HE WAS DOING.

LAWYER CURED OF ECZEMA "While attending school at Lebanon, Ohio, in 1882, I became afflicted with bolls, which lasted for about two years, when the affliction assumed the form of an eczema on my face, the lower part of my face being inflamed most of the time. There would be water-blisters rise up and open, and wherever the water would touch it would burn, and cause another one to rise. After the blister would open, me piacw wouiu bwu over, auu nuuiu > bum and itch so as to be almost un- I bearable at times. In this way the sores would spread from one place to another, back and forth over the whole of my upper lip and chin, and at times the whole lower part of my face would be a solid sore. This con dition continued for four or five years, without getting any better, and in fact got worse all the time, so much so that my wife became alarmed lest it prove fatal. t "During all this time of boils and eczema, I doctored with the best phy sicians of this part of the country, but to no avail. Finally I decided to Iry Cuticura Remedies, which I did, tak ing the Cuticura Resolvent, applying the Cuticura Ointment to the sores, and using the Cuticura Soap for wash ing. In a very short time I began to QT^rl rnntinilPd tO UUllVC llU^lVTCUiVUh) MUV* use the Cuticura Remedies-until I was well again, and have not had a re currence of the trouble since, which Is over twenty years.

Many people suffer intensely otw imaginary injuries. By Martha McCulloch Williams. Here is a dinner menu, easy but nourishing, not so costly, and capable of being prepared, cooked, and served inside two hours: Roast Beef, Stuffed Rolled Round sliced Potatoes Baked Apples Cold Slaw Banana Puffs Black Coffee Salted Peanuts Have the round cut rather long and as thick as need be. Butter It on both sides, salt and pepper lightly, cover the upper side with bread crumb stuf fing seasoned with onion, roll up, tie and seal in well-greased bag with a lump of butter or clarified '1 'pping and a spoonful of water. P- in a hot oven for three minutes, slack heat, and cook until done, allowing fifteen to twenty minutes to the pound. ' If tomatoes are at hand, put one or two, peeled and sliced, in with the meat. The gravy will be better and the meat itself more piquant. Slice peeled potatoes thin, drop In cold water, drain out, put in a greased bag after sprinkling very lightly with salt, add a little extra greaste, seal and cook fifteen to thirty minutes in a fairly hot oven, the time depend ing on the quantity in the bag. WooVi Iho onnloa tl'oll hllf rfo not peel, cut out specks and bruises, core, fill the bottom of the core-space with a lump of butter, over w^ich pile sugar, and add a bit of cinnamon. A clove stuck in the side may take the place of the cinnamon. Seal inside a well-greased ba?, and bake eighteen to twenty minutes in a fairly hot oven. Make cold slaw in the usual way, and the salted peanuts as follows, af ter blanching and drying them: Put in a thickly-buttered bag. set in a very hot oven for half minute, then reduce the heat three-quarters, and leave nuts to brown for ten minutes longer. They will come out crisp and beautiful, needing only a sprinkling of salt. To make the banana puffs, roll out good puff paste a quarter-inch thick and cut it in squares six inches across. Cover half of each square diagonally with bananas sliced thin and soaked for half an hour in sugar and lemon bag and bake twelve minutes In a hot oven. Bananas, always cheap, and among the most nourishing of the fruits, ought to be more used in cook ery. Here is another good meal for a winter day: Pork Tenderloin. Roasted with Sweet Potatoes "abbage Pudding Stewed Carrots Celery Apple Dumplings, Cider Sauce Coffee Cheese Crackers Have the tenderloins split length wise and cut them In halves. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth, rub over with butter or dripping, season lightly with salt and pepper, and lay in a well-greased bag along with raw sweet potatoes, peeled and halved, or quar tered if very large. Add a lump of fat, butter or dripping, rolled In a little flour, also a tablesptionful of water. Seal bag and cook in a hot oven thirty-five minutes to an hour, according to the quantity of food in the bag. Slack that after five minutes. Slow, steady cooking makes the meat tender, yet full of flavor. Choose a tender cabbage for the puddiug. Shred it fine, then drop in boiling salted water and cook uncov er^ nt full boil, ten minutes. Drain out, run cold water through it, then mix it thoroughly through a pint of milk which has been beaten well with two eggs, and season with salt and pepper. If the cabbage Is small, use one egg and half a pint of milk. Have the bag very thickly greased and sprinkle it inside with grated cheese. Put In the mixture by big spoonfuls, add a lump of butter and sprinkle in more cheese between the spoonfuls. Seal very tight, lay on a trivet, put in a hot oven for three minutes, then slack heat, and cook for at least an hour. Make real puff paste for your dump lings, roll it a quarter-inch thick, fit it neatly around the apples, which should be liberally treated with sugar and butter, not to name lemon peel and cinnamon, put in a thickly-but tered bag with a small lump of but ter and a spoonful of sugar, and cock for twenty to twenty-five minutes in ft fairly hot oven. ic r\iriT nr u rnujui v/* Simple Explanation as to Why Sons of the Wealthy So Frequently Lack Vigor. The lack of physical and mental rigor sometimes noted among the sons Df wealthy families is due to Impov erished vitality on the part of the father rather than to the oppression 3f society's demands upon the mother. No man under the stern pressure or a nerve-racking load can be physically lit to become the father of a family? indeed the offspring is certain to show at some vital point the efTect of its progenitor's burden. The man who wins in the "fierce race for wealth" does so by close concentration of his powers, even at the beginning, and by the expenditure of volumes of nerve energy. But he cannot expend it and keep it, too. Machinery run at high speed wears out quickly. Vital forces drawn upon for one purpose to the I >olnr ot exhaustion cannot l:e used for ?

Are you numbered among the many mothers of this great nation wbo I have boys and girls away at scnooi or college? Then you know what a great delight It gives the children to receive from "Mother" a box of home cooked things to eat, from solid meats, like turkey and chicken, to the frothiest of sweets. Right here, good mother, you will find the paper bag a very present help. A plump chicken, a small line turkey, bag-roasted and ''ell drained and popped inside another bag, light ly greased, packs well. -;an be eaten without a qualm, and makes a mighty fine cornerstone for the upbuilding of a proper box. Here are a few candy suggestions worth consideration even by ?. "wo man" freshman?or sophomore. Fondant, which is the basis of many candles, is variously made; this Is as good a way as any 1 have found: To each cup of sugar allow a drop of acetic apid and one-third cup of cold water. Cook in a very clean brass or enamel kettle, stirring constantly until It begins to boil. Wipe ofT any dry sugar from the sides of the kettle, add the acid, cover the kettle and cook without further stirring at gentle heat until the syrup, dropped in cold water, forms a soft ball. Pour out than ?n Q flnt-Hsh rfiah. wet with very cold water. When cool, not cold, work with a paddle back and forth until white and creamy, then put In something deep, cover with a clean damp cloth, and set away to ripen. This formula is adapted from obser vation in a famous, candy factory, where huge tubs of fondant stood month after month until the trained sense of the heads said It was just right for use. When ready to use, cut out a good lump, put In an earthen vessel and liquefy over boiling water. | Then flavor and color to taste, and I either dip into it blanched nuts. dat?3, figs or crystallized fruit or small rounds of hard fondant. After the first dipping, set them upon a wire rack over a bowl to drain and harden. Dip a second time ir you want me candies very superior. If there is not time for this, roll while still soft In powdered sugar and set on waxed pa per to dry and harden. ' Fondant thus liquid, colored pink green or yellow, flavored with mint and dropped from a spoon-tip upon waxed paper, makes delectable mint cream. Any other flavor can be used instead of mint. With '-range or leir.on flavor, after dropping the creams, sprinkle while still soft with finely ground nuts, or stick a tiny bit of cocoanut in the center. Cocoanut cut to shape and cream nuts, shelled whole, make fine candies if they are first covered with stiff fondant and then dipped in the melted stufT. which has been made rich with chocolate. tt?? - - tmi f In a uprv Jtiere, as ciscnu cic, i<ui. *- - little brandy with tfie chocolate. Frjit squares are good. To make them, take equal quantities of seeded raisins, well chopped dates cut small, figs steamed and cut up fine, shred* ded citron, shredded candied peel, shredded fresh cocoanut and shred ded blanched almonds. Stir all well together and spread without packing evenly over a well buttered flat dish. Pour upon the mixture boiling hot a taffy made by boiling until it crackles I in the teeth, two cups sugar, with I one-half cup vinegar and water mixed and one tablespoonful of butter. Let Btand till the surface hardens slight ly, then with a well-greased knife mark in squares. Break apart when cold and wrap in waxed paper. Pack the wrapped squares inside a paper bag. Lastly, be sure that almost the big gest cake bagged for the box is a Lady McMillan, which to my mind quite discounts Lady Baltimore. Taka for It three and a half cups sifted flour, two cups sifted sugar, one cup blackberry jam, one cup swest milk, two-thirds cup creamed butter, five whole eggs or yolks of twelve, two . teaspoons baking powder, one tea spoon cinnamon, one teaspoon mixed cloves and allspice. Cream butter with part of sugar, add yolks beaten light with rest of sugar, sift flour with baking powder and add alter nately with milk and stiff beaten whites. Add spices mixed In half cordial, then jam. Bake In layers put together with Icing filled with seeded raisins and chopped English walnuts. Use plain icing on top and sides. Or bake in a large sheet in side a bag, cut square and put to gether as directed. The essential thing is to All a big bag with it. so that the spread it graces shall be a huge success. | (Copyright. 1911, by the Associated Literary Press.) nri 117 i? a tutto inc rM^riLi\ another.

Vertical Journey. "How do you get lo your office in that new skyscraper?" "I ride in the subway about a third of the distance and make the rest of the trip in the elevator."

FASTENING THE HEAVY DOOR Catches Described Herewith Will Hold Fast and Prevent Warping?How Working Parts Are Made. (By J. W. GRIFFIN.) To prevent a' door from being blown about by heavy winds, there should be a fastening at the top and one near the bottom. A hook at the top and a chain at the bottom looks like Hfe in the primitive age. The fastenings herewith described are those that will stay fastened, and they will prevent the door warping, swinging out at the top or bottom, and will catch every time the door ia closed. The six j. ,*ces that hold the work ing parts to the door are made of heavy hoop iron, bent in the shape as shown in the small drawing at (A), Fastening for Heavy Doors. and are fastened to the door by nails or screws. The ^dotted lines show the position of the working parts when the tumblers are back so that the ddor may be opened. (B) A coil spring that holds the tumblers in a closed position. The edge of the door jamb where the tumblers rub as they pass to the sockets, are beveled so that there will be the least possible opposition to them entering. The notches at (C) are oblong, that the pins that work in them may not bind, as the tumblers are withdrawn. The dotted lines at (D) represent a notch that is in the door, through which the pin moves when the door Is unlatched. At (E) there is a piece one-eighth of inch thicker than the tumblers and the pieces that are marked (C); this permits the tumblers to move easily. | There is used three-elghths-lnch holts at (E) to bolt piece (C) to t^e < door, and short bolt of the same size at (F) with the heads next to the door. TheBe bolts work loosely in the holes made in piece (C). All working parts work Just loose , enough to move without rubbing hard, j but not so loose that there will be any f rattling on the door by the wind. To open the door, the pin (D) is , pushed toward the edge of the door, j and as soon as released, the tumblera retain their former position, and when the door is shut, the tumblers will slip in place and hold the door secure. PRACTICAL BARN FOR DAIRY Diagram Given Herewith Shows How Wisconsin Man Solved Problem of Modern Building. The accompanying diagram shows \ how a Wisconsin dairyman solved the J problem of building a modern dairy ; barn at low cost, says the Prairie Far- ' mer. This dair>*man was also con- ' fronted with the problem of construct- ; Ing a barn on short notice as he had moved to a newly purchased farm which afforded but a mere Excuse of a dairy barn. Accordingly he made hia barn In the shape of a lean-to on two sides of an old but well built barn. ? t 1 ? 1 | Old Barn Alley 1111 1II1II /Vsmd# 6*4/** 5t*Hs Practical Dairy Barn. The dotted lines in the diagram show the partition between the old barn and the lean-to. By doing this a consid erable saving In building material was effected as well as time saved in con struction work. The usual dimensions were followed in the construction of the stalls and alleys. By making the lean-to on the east and south sides of the barn sun light entered all parts of it some time of the day. Ventilation was provided hv hlneine the windows at the bottom and providing 3 out-takes, one at each end and one where the additions meet. . The Farm Separator. The farm separator and the home reared calf keep about all the fertil ity on the farm, but selling milk for the city trade takes fertility off the farm and sells it In tin cans at so much the hundred pounds. There is one thing the farm separa tor doeB not do?it does not separate the dairyman from his profits. Cow Must Have Water. Remember that the cow that gives a large flow of milk must have an abundance of good, pure water. If she has to get this out in the cold the chances are she will not drink as much as she should. Select Heifer Calves. The heifer calves from the best cows must be carefully selected, prop erly handled, and even then there will be considerable culling to do before the herd can be bred up to the stand ard of highest profit. i WILSON ON DAIRY INDUSTRY Extensive Demand for Products 5n Newly Settled Regions?Develop ment Urgently Needed. "In much of the west cattle raising 'or beef has long been the principal jusiness," said Secretary Wilson, "but lairying is comparatively new. There s an extensive market, however, for lairy products; and especially in the lewly settled regions it is found that he c'airy industry fills such a place n agricultural economy that its de relopment is urgently needed. "In addition, a special enterprise las been undertaken with creamery matrons in Iowa, the object being to ietermine whether it will pay cream eries to carry on the same sort of vork among their own farmer patrons or the sake of getting a better qual ty of cream as material for making butter. Here, also, record keeping las been introduced, along with other mproved methods, and the effort is nade to discover the leaks that re luce profits. "In the older stat?* of the north, vhere dairying is already an estab lshed industry, the work of the de partment outside of advice to indivld lals upon request, consists chiefly in he propagation of cow-testing asso :iations and the Improvement of city milk supplies. Cow-testing associa ions are societies for co-operating in be keeping of herd records by en ;aging a man who goes from farm to' arm periodically, makes observations, tnd keeps records for the herdB of all he members of the association. By his means records are secured with >ut the trouble or expense involved vhen each man keeps them for him self; and in various other ways the :o-operation of the farmers is produc ive or pront. me primary uujecta ire to dotect and weed out. inferior ndlvldual cows, and by the use of mrebred bulls to perpetuate and in ensify the valuable characteristics of he cows that are found to be good >nes?thus raising the average qual ty of the individual cow and the to al productiveness of th? \serd. There ivb 85 cow-testing associations now in !0 states, comprising 45,000 cows. "Thd records of one of these asso :latlons show that the profit was loubled after four years' work. For nstance, a man with eight cows ound, the first month of keeping rec >rds, that he was losing five and one lalf cents per cow? or 44 cents on his lerd for that month. After three nonths' testing be was making a >rofit of $32 a month on* the herd, and it the end of the year his profits had ncreased to |50 a month. This not tble increase was due largely to the lale of five of his poorest cows, and he purchase of as many well-prodiic ng ones to take their places. In addi ion, there were changes made in the nethods of feeding which conduced to he result." LANTERN HANGER FOR BARNS Safe and Handy Way to Use LJght in Stable is Shown in uiusirauor? Won't Turn Over. ^ The hanger shown in the sketch makes a safe and handy way to use a lantern in a barn or stable.. It Is con structed of an old grooved pulley with i U-ahaped hanger made of sheet iron, rhe U-shaped hanger, says the Popu ar Mechanics, is made of a screw eye Lantern Hanger for a Barn, ;ut off and riveted in place, the hook being formed of heavy wire. The pnK ley is run on a wire stretched over head from one end of the barn to the ather. The lantern can be easily moved from place to place, and, as it Is out of the way, it cannot be turned aver. Ration for Cows. A cow, generally speaking, requires )ne pound of grain per day for each hree to three and one-half pounds of nilk that she yields per day when she is receiving a liberal feed of silage ind other rough feed or as many pounds of grain per day as she pro luces pounds of butter fat in seven lays. Dual Purpose Cows. The dual purpose cow may be good jnough for the man who wants to kill lis dairy cows for beef, or try to make iairy cows out of his beef cattle, but 'or the man who is running a straight dairy he should eliminate all beef alood from the strain of his animals. f y iiAiiiy Ayj??L 1 \ / Palatability is an important feature of good dairy rations. Facilities for handling milk are giv ing an impetus to the market. Don't let the cows out in the storms to stand around. It doesn't pay. It Is rather a difficult task to dry up a cow when in full flow of milk. If a cow has a habit of side-stepping while milking, examine your linger nalla. A cow producing average testing milk should yield from 7,000 to 8,000 pounds of milk In a year. Gentleness and patience with the heifer that has calved for the first time will win out every time. Just after the cow has freshened she should have the same feeds she has been given previous to calving. To feed cows profitably without some home grown sort of protein, such as the leguminous hays, is difficult. Sweet corn la one of the very best crops to grow to feed as a soiling crop to the dairy cows in summer. Remember that the tendency to transmit a defect Is just as strong and often times it seems stronger than the tendency to transmit a good point. Corn and cornraeal are carbonace ous matter, similar In composition to that of cream, i?nd there is no feed that a calf likes so well as shelled corn or corumeal. */ - ? *; *' rrv" r -? v A r1-: -fi pPfff! % % v?fl T^p-MHHN 14BIJVET EN and women who ^ "set there" have settled beliefs and convictions.

For the main dish of a meal it can be combined with veal, chicken and other meats In the form of croquettes or escalloped dishes, with tomatoes and curry, with cheese. Another is a very nice dish of hard-cooked eggs cut In eighths and put into buttered bak ing dish with a layer of cold cooked rice first, then a few spoonfuls of thick white sauce, a sprinkling of cheese and seasonings and a layer of eggs. Finish with buttered crumbs, and bake until thoroughly hot. This is a dish sufficiently filling for a main dish. Five hard-boiled eggs, two cups of rice and a cup of white sauce, sea soning and a litija grated cheese will oe enougn to serve five. For supper or luncheon dishes there Is nothing for a light meal more ap propriate than plain boiled rice with rich milk. Desserts of rice with eggs and milk make most appetizing dishes. Rice and milk baked with dates and raisins and served with cream is an other good dessert.

Escalloped potatoes prepared from cold boiled potatoes and a little white sauce and onion juice sprinkled with green peas, also a left-over, makes an other appetizing dish. When you have a little strong cream cheese left over, grate it and mix with a beaten white of egg, season with salt, cayenne and pack in the cheese jars or serve on circlets of toast and heat. To be served with tea. Ginger bread baked in thin sheets, cut in rounds and put together sand wich fashion with cream or cottage cheese make delicious little tea cakes. When a little pastry is left and one has time to do it, very pretty little baskets may be made by putting the pastry over inverted patty pans and baking. For the handles, twist the pastry in strips and lay around a ba king powder can to bake. Fill the baskets with preserves or ices and in sert the handles. These make very effective deserts. If one has a bit of orange marma lade left over, add it to the mince meat. Cold vegetables of all kinds may be converted into good salads. If there are several yarieties. season and pile them in groups with parsley in be tween. Carrots, green peas and pota toes, a few of each, in this wiy make a Kood mixed salad, and one can take the preferred vegetable when being served.
