THE KING OF
BLOOD PURIFIERS
No remedy ever yet discovered has met with such
popular favor as S. S. S. The people everywhere indorse it,
and there are few homes where S. S. S. for the blood is
not known and used. It is superior in many ways to the ordi
nary blood medicines. In the first place S. S. S. is a guaranteed
purely vegetable compound, made exclusively of medicinal roots
•elected for their wonderful purifying and tonic properties that act
npon the blood, purging it of impurities and restoring it to a healthy,
natural condition. At the same time, under its tonic effects the gen-
•ral system improves, the sluggish organs are toned up, and renewed
strength and vigor and better health is the result. No bad after-effects
follow the use of S. S. S., as so often happens with blood medicines
containing strong minerals, which derange the stomach and digestion
and in other ways damage the system. For diseases of the blood,

8. S. S will search out and remove from the blood the fixed poison and
build up the health; it enriches and purifies weak, thin blood and stim
ulates the circulation. Pure blood is essential to health. You can
•xist.without good blood, but can never be robust and strong; for every
organ, tissue and nerve in the body looks to the blood for nourishment,
and unless this vital fluid is kept in a pure, healthy state, the rest of
the body suffers and the system soon breaks down. Nature has pro
vided in S. S. S. a remedy for diseases of the blood which long
experience and a thorough test have proven superior to all others, and
the acknowledged “ King of Blood Purifiers.”

Your Hasband Substantially” the
First—Courses In Marketing, Cook
ing and House Furnishing.
“Brides trained here” might well be
the Inscription on the shingle of a
new institute of learning at Logan, a
fashionable suburb of Philadelphia,
says a corresponded of the Chicago
Tribune.
There are twenty-three students in n
class presided over by Miss Ethel Hen
drickson. The whole course is ground
ed upon the idea that the man is the
“whole thing.”
At the oeginniug of the term giri
start their notebooks with fourteen
headings, leaving blank spaces for
comment and elaboration of the main
ideas. A glimpse at the headings is
enough to make eligible bachelors want
to rush to Philadelphia on a chance ol
annexing a graduate of the school for
brides, one who can show her degree
of “M. II.”—motlel helpmate.
Here’s a bride’s duty as outlined in
the preliminary talks of the instruct
ress:
I3g cheerful.
Practice repose.
Feed him substantially.
Train your servants well.
Spend money prudently.
Keep the home bright and comfortable.
Keep little household worries to your
self.
Bo ready always for the unexpected
friend.
Divide your time between baby and hus
band.
Be Interested in his business and in his
pleasure.
Take pains to be an entertaining, cheer
ful and interested companion.
Be us careful In your attire and as anx
ious to please as before marriage.
Encourage your husband to spend at
least one night a week at the club or with
the “boys.”
Encourage him to bring his friends
home and have at least one “man's" room
where ho can entertain with perfect free
dom.
It is nil done on a practical basis.
“Feed him substantially” is the first
edict. Students are taught that this
doesn’t mean anything like stuffing a
husband with fearfully and elaborately
constructed dishes that would puzzle
a French maitre de cuisine. It means
that they are to find out what he likes
best and have it cooked in fashion.
Make him forget that mother ever
knew the rudiments of the culinary art.
'ibe process begins in marketing.
Girls are taught how to choose the
best cuts of meat, how to select a
proper fowl aud how to distinguish
fresh vegetables from those in a rum
mage sale condition of usefulness, and
they learn to market without draining
the pocketbook. They are taught that
“enough for two” does not mean a
supply for a regiment, and they are
coached in those details lack of knowl
edge of which makes the average
young bride an easy mark for a shrewd
tradesman and keeps the garbage pall
better stocked than the pantry.
Having mastered marketing, the
prospective bride sets to work making
meals. Supplies In every detail are
taken up In routine nntll the pupil baa
mastered the entire cooking and serv
ing of a full course dinner, even into
brewing a favorite punch.
Chafing dlab cookery la another
branch of instruction practiced nntll
the proud girl with the “M. H.” diplo
ma la a veritable wizard with the alco
hol flame apparatus. There la no beg
ging the question or cheating the cen
sor, for every girl has to eat of her trl-
umpfla and failures. Worse still, all
the other girls In the class partake of
them, and criticism Is unrestrained.
The newcomer gets some hazing on
this account, but the girls are all jolly
aud much in earnest generally, so no
discord Is engendered.
Perhaps the most trying ordeal In
the culinary course Is one of the ‘‘open
nights.” when the big brothers and fa:
thera “and perhaps others are Invited
to partake of the products.” Criticism
la barred on these occasions, but the
rule Isn’t necessary.
Room arranging and decorating Is
practiced and reduced to a science.
The furniture Is arranged and placed
for various effects. Hangings are re-
bung and cushions are disposed of to
get the best results In comfort and ap
pearance. Girls are taught the magic
of the skilled and artistic touch In so
alight a matter ns the placing of a
clmir or u table. Extremes are taught
from the rigid primness of a Puritan
room to the luxurious piling, color and
splendor In an oriental apartment The
Instructors purpose Is to give full
scope to the Individual tastes of pupils
In these matters, but to develop them
In accordance with standards.
Furnishing a house from top to bot
tom is one of the practical lessons that
come under the head, and students are
required in theory to buy every article
of equipment from nutmeg grater to a
grand piano and to decorate various
rooms in the house and to fit them
with all appurtenances ready for Im
mediate occupancy.
Taken all in all. the girl with an
“M. II.” deservedly won is decidedly
to be coveted. The worst part is that
they are not eligible to school until
they have been courted and won or
during the early stages of the honey
moon, while yet groping In the maze
of running their own establishments.
