One of the most important will have to be solved in the kitchen. Not many months ago there was a bride that set out with her young husband to make their new home. She had'been brought up in a well-to-do family and was not obliged to cook or assist in kitchen, pantry and dining room. It was rather pai thetic to witness her efforts, without trained servants, to set an attractive table. She knew nothing about plain or fancy cooking. She was at the mercy of cook and butcher. Every girl about the time her mind runs to beaux should[give her attention to the kitchen. She should learn how to give out meals, to make bread, cook meats and do all plain cooking. That art being acquired she could then learn to make a variety of cakes and deserts. If the beau does not come along all this knowledge will be valuable for she can say to her tired mother?"I will attend tp the kitchen this week. You must rest." All that work will give "sweet sixteen" confidence in herself and when the time comes to^begin^housekeeping she will be prepared for it'.

Spiegel, 1204, N. Virginia St., Evansville, Ind., writes: "For over five years I was troubled with kidney and bladder affections which caused me much pain and worry.
