■51 WOMAN’S ® 9 REALM. DOES YOUR BACK ACHE? :! The Chaperon. Of course the chaperon question, as it Is generally understood, is a middle class one, says the London World; but Father Vaughan perfect ly understood what he was saying when he alluded to the lack of sur veillance of a properly dignified and perfectly agreeable kind from which so many girls really suffer nowadays. This is due partly to the fact that mothers do not seem to be want to be bothered to look after their girls, and partly to the fact that hostesses seem to resent much “mothering.” But even allowing for the fact that the preacher has not spared his col ors in order to make his picture suf ficiently striking, one knows perfect ly well that far too much latitude is given to girls not only in country houses but in town as well. It would not be at all a bad thing for English society if we could go back to the days when people keep almost ab surdly watchful eyes on the proprie ties. Their vigilance may sometimes have been eluded, it is true; it may sometimes have provoked ridicule, but at least it conveyed the idea that mothers set high standard for their girls, and were at some pains to see thav they came somewhere near it. ft was good for men to feel this, moreover, for it surely made w r omen seem better worth the winning if they had been jealously guarded under the experienced eye of a duenna who knew man and his ways. ftroflt by the Experience of One Who Has Found Relief. .Tames R. Keeler, retired farmer, of Fenner St., Cazenovia, N. Y., says: “About fifteen years ago I suffered with mj back and kidneys. 1 doctored and used many reme dies withort getting relief. Beginning with Doan’s Kidney ■ills, I found relief from the first box, ^arrrorrr an< * two ^ oxes re * stored me to good, sound condition. My wife and many of my friends have used Doan's Kid ney Pills with good result* and I can earnestly recommend them.” Sold by all dealers. 5 0 cents a box. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. French horticulturists have appar ently been very successful of late in raising dwarf trees, and one of the features of dinner parties among the rich now is to serve the fruit upon the tree. Oddly Marked Trunks. Recently a curious fashion of marking trunks by individual and odd devices has come into practice. It Is a trick that helps to identify one’s baggage instantly, even at a distance, in a crowded railway sta tion, and thus facilitate travel, espe cially abroad, where so much red tape entangles baggage transporta tion. Some of the devices used are queer, to say the least. A lover of dogs had brindle heads in brown and white painted at intervals on all her trunks and suit cases before sailing for Ger many. She felt sure, she said, that she would be able to identify her baggage anywhere by these signs, says the Philadelphia Bulletin. Another curious design is that of skull and crossbones, done in black, white and red, on top, sides and ends of trunks, and on the bottom of every bag, of one traveler. Dumbbell designs in red, white and blue identify another lot of luggage. One society woman has her trunks all marked with a design of a pair of gloves, painted red, black and gold, and appearing as if just taken off the hand and carelessly tossed in the trunk. Family crests in gold and colors are used, and college girls going abroad have curious Chinese dragons, birds, etc., done in Oriental color combinations on their baggage. Depression. Ihe occasional mood of depression which overtakes the most light-heart ed of us women is as much to be dreaded as an east wind. While it lasts it has the effect of an east wind, chilling us to the marrow and put ting into our manner that which chills our children and our friends. Almost as if it were a sensate thing, a living, hostile influence, the demon of depression broods over our hearts, blotting the sun in the noonday and the stars in the midnight sky. Nothing in our circumstances may be more distressing or more threaten ing than usual. Our affairs may not be in the shape most desirable, and w r e may be menaced by some vwy tangible calamity, but we have weathered such storms before, and, God helping us, we hope to do so again. Perhaps our struggle is with limited means, and our effort to keep up appearances, to educate a son or daughter, to dress in the style of our neighbors, or to indulge some favor ite taste, keeps us in debt, and never lets us draw a free breath. The singular thing, however, is that our moods of depression are not consequent upon actual poverty, or upon real trouble of any kind. De pression is quite as likely to pounce upon its victim when, apparently, there is no reason for anything ex cept cheerfulness and gayety. De pression does frequently supervene on physical fatigue, a disordered liver, or worn-out nerves. Change of scene, a night’s rest, an hour of listening to music, or a nourishing restorative diet, will often banish the evil demon, and brighten the world once more. What one can do, one should, if menaced by any state of feeling which interferes with the comfort and w r ell being of one's family, to say nothing of one's own mental balance. U is exceedingly selfish, if it can be avoided, to inflict one's mood of de pression upon husband, wife, child, sister, comrade or servant. If it can be avoided before it comes, or cured when it appears, or vanquished in its baleful battle, by all means let the Christian rally the forces at hand, and gather strength by prayer, and fare onward cheerfully. In our wrestle, not with flesh and blood only, but often w r ith principali ties and pow'ers, envoys from the un seen spiritual w’orld, which so closely environs us, we need to summon help from above. And we need, also, com mon sense, as an ally to faith.— Margaret E. Sangster. The Successful Man. Thinks firstly and deeply and speaks last and to the point.

Catarrh Cannot Be Cured with local applications, as they can not reach the seat of the disease.. Ca tarrh is a blood or constitutional disease, and in order to cure it you mu«t take inter nal remedies. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is taken internally, and acta directly on the blood and mucous aurfaces. Hall Catarrh Cure is not a quack medicine. It was prescribed by one of the best physicians in this coun try for years and is a regular prescription. It is composed of the beat tonics known, combined with the best blood purifiers, act ing directly on the mucous surfaces.

An Old Medicine. “Ground oyster shells,” said the physician, as he squeezed a lemon over his blue points, “were used as a medicine by the mediaeval doctors —a medicine for the rickets and scrofula.” “How absurd!” “Absurd? Not at all. Oyster sheik contain lime, nitrogen. Iron, sulphur, magnesia, bromide, phosphoric acid and iodine. Those are all excellent tonics. “You know how hens eat ground oyster shells and thus produce eggs with good, thick, strong 'shells?

Country Road Building. It is a pleasure to ride over our. cown since we changed the money system of road maintenance and building. We are on the third year, and the changed condition of roads and small bridges is marvelous. The town owns a stone crusher, bins, traction engine, dump wagons, etc. The first work of the season is giv en over to smoothing the dirt roads, picking up loose stone and repairing small bridges. After this the com missioner unites what was formerly two gangs and begins stone crushing and permanent work. Small bridges of eight to sixteen feet span have been built of iron I- beams and cement. When necessary new foundation walls are put up, and the concrete filling is put on between the beams, making a permanent bridge. Later, no doubt, small sluices will be made in the same manner. We have plenty of stone in walls and heaps for perhaps two or three years. Farmers, as a rule, as sist the commissioner in making an easy road for these field stones. Oc casionally pay is demanded, which is refused. An effort was put forth one year ago to defeat a painstaking, hard working, conscientious commissioner for reasons patented for the occasion, but those most deeply interested in our road improvement were able to sustain the commissioner, and he was re-elected by over 100 majority. If we can succeed in divorcing the office from politics a point will have scored. I hope the time is not far distant when officials who act in any techni cal or special capacity will be elected without regard to party emblem. Would we not make headway faster if all road officers w-ere under Civil Service? Has any one suggested this before? Why not make it competi tive and. permit merit to win? The fact of the matter is that our system and policy in the past have not de veloped many very valuable road ex perts. A bill was introduced into our State Legislature at the 1904-’05 ses sion to permit the State University to give a short course in road science and practice, but the Governor vetoed it. Road interests—and that means every one—should see to it that a similar hill is again brought forward. I firmly believe in State road building and the educative force of a strong arm. At the same time, localities that remain idle, awaiting the State road, will haul through the mud for a long time. Former Mayor Blodget, of Worces ter, Mass.—who, by the way, is a na tive of our town, and is now stopping here—is the president of a company holding patents on methods of con structing concrete roadbeds. The scheme, which is being worked in cit ies only, has,—according to his state ments, great possibilities for country road construction. A fifteen-foot width can be put down for about $8000 a mile. This compares favor ably with macadam, and would, of course, be durable. Macadam roads are suffering fear fully under automobile travel, under all kinds of gear. Interurban traffic is made heavier when these roads are put down, and so they break under it. We must have something better than macadam for hard wear. Recently I passed over a twenty- mile road running out of Cleveland, Ohio, whicn was being laid with brick. Maybe we are near the era of concrete roads, as we are in the era of concrete buildings. Considera tions of permanency are fast being engrafted upon our activities and in stitutions.—H. E. Cook, Denmark, N. Y., in the New York Tribune Farmer.

RAINY DAY MONEY. “Is your husband putting by any thing for a rainy day?” asked tho prudent relative. “I think so,” answered young Mrs. Torkins. “I heard him mention sev eral horses yesterday that he said always run best on a muddy track. —Washington Star. Most diseases start in the alimen tary canal—stomach and bowels. A great deal of our stomach and bowel troubles come fripm eating too much starchy and greaby food. The stomach does not digest any of the starchy food we eat—white bread, pastry, potatoes, oats, etc.—these things are digested in the small in testines, and if we eat too much, as most of us do, the organs that should digest this kind of food are overcome by excess of work, so that fermenta tion. indigestion, and a long train of ails result. Too much fat also is hard to di gest and this is changed into acids, sour stomach, belching gas, and a bloated, heavy feeling. In these conditions a change from indigeerv -.- foods to Grape-Nuts will work wonders in not only relieving the distress, but in building up a strong digestion, clear brain and steady nerves. A \V ash. woman writes: “About five years ago I suffered with bad stomach—dyspepsia, indi gestion, constipation—caused, I know* now, from eating starchy and greasy food. "I doctored for two years without any benefit. The doctor told me there was no cure for me. I could not eat rn> tiling without suffering severe pain in my back and sides, and I became discouraged. “A friend recommended Grape- Nuts and I began to use it. In less than two weeks I began to feel better and Inside of two months I was a well woman and have been ever since. . “I can eat anything I wish with pleasure. We eat Grape-Nuts and cream for breakfast and are very fond of It.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

An inspection tour of some of the I improved roads of Massachusetts was recently made by several members of | the Rhode Island Highway Commis sion, including Colonel J. H. Ed wards, chairman; R. T. Rodman, en gineer; W\ C. Peckham, J. F. Rich mond and P. J. Lamson. They were accompanied by Chairman William E. McClintock, Harold Parker, J. A. Johnston, Division Engineer and Sec retary A. B. Fletcher, of the Massa- ! chusetts Highway Commission, and | made the journey in three White Steamers, driven by R. G. Glover, A. K. Miller and O. H. Lufkin. The party started from Worcester and went to Springfield, rode over Mount Tom and went through Chicopee, Northampton and other intervening towns to Greenfield, where they spent the night. The next day they rode through Turners Falls, Orange, Gardner, Westminster to Fitchburg, where they stopped for luncheon. They then drove to Boston through Groton, Concord and Arlington. They covered more than 230 miles during the two days, and all of the journey except about twenty miles was made over roads built by the Massachu setts Highway Commission. Bad Roads, No Mail. “Bad roads, no mail,” is the rule the Government has adopted for the rural free delivery service. Local authorities must keep the ways in passable condition if they are to ben efit by the rural delivery, and so it comes about that this branch of the postal service is not only an agent of communication which brings farm lands nearer the centre, but a direct incentive to road-building, and hence to general improvement and prosper ity.

Has Not Been Seen Since 1835, and Will Not Be Seen Again Till Latter Part of Twentieth Century. The most famous of all comets, though not the largest and most bril liant, will again be visible in 1910. This is Halley’s comet, so called from its identification by the great astron omer who was the friend of Sir Isaac Newton. Halley’s Investigations of astronomical records led him to as sert that the comet which he had ob served in 1682 had appeared in 1531 and 1607, and to predict its* reappear ance in 1759. The fulfillment of his prophecy excited the most inti -ae scientific interest and established be yond doubt the periodicity of comets and their movements in orbits de termined by the law of gravitation. Its last appearance was in 1835, its period varying between seventy-five and seventy-six years years on ac count of the perturbing attractions ed Jupiter and Saturn In certain parts of its orbit. It was by that time possible to calculate its move ments with much greater accuracy than before that it made its perihelion passage within four days of the pre dicted date. It was not then a very grand object to the naked eye, but the light of its nucleus surpassed that of second magnitude stars and was comparable with that of Al- debaran and Antares. Its tail, while the comet was approaching the sun, attained to a length of 20 degrees. —Leslie’s Weekly. What Do They Cure?

Very curious facts about the prefer ence of lightning for certain kind.s of trees have been collected by the Bureau of Forestry at Washington. It has long been noted that oaks are far more frequently damaged by lightning than beeches. As a partial explanation it has been suggested that the smoother leaves and bark of the^ beeoh by producing a uniform wetting of the surface In a storm, may cause lightning to reach the ground from such a tree with less damage than in the case of an oak. But statistics gathered by the Bureau of Forestry indicate that the beech Is compara tively exempt from lightning strokes. Between 1900 and 1905, within a cer tain district, 66 oak and about 20 fir trees and three or four pines were struck by lightning but not a single beech was struck, although the beech was actually the most abundant tree in the district, outnumbering the oaks almost, seven to one.
