There is a Class of People
Who are injured by the use of coffee.
Recently there has been placed in all
the grocery stores, a new preparation
called GRAIN-O, made of pure grains,
that takes the place of coffee. The
most delicate stomach receives it with-
out distress, and but few can tell it
from coffee. It does not cost over :l as
much. Children may drink it with
great benefit. 15 cts. and 25 cts. per
ackage Try it. Ask for GR.A INO.
Secluded Nook ior Sitters.
Don’t set the hens in the hen house.
A worse place could not be chosen.
They will be constantly disturbed by
the layers. eggs will be broken and the
setters will frequently be entirely crowd-
ed off the nest. Give the sitter a nest
where she can attend to her duties in
peace. A barrel laid on its side in some
secluded spot but doors makes us good
a nest as anything which can be de-
vised. Shovel out a small cavity for the
barrel to rest in and use the loose earth
for forming a small embankment
around it, for carrying off the surface
water. Fill the barrel to a third of its
depth with earth, and shape the nest
in the center. With a wide board to
cover the opening at night, securely
held in place by stakes, the hen is
:most comfortably fixed for attending
to her duties.——Western Plowman.
The Kidney complexion.
The pale,vsallow, sunken-checked,
distressed-looking people you so often
meet are afflicted with “Kidney Com-
plexion.” .. ,
Their kidneys are turning to a pars-
nip color. So is their complemon.
They may also have indigestion, or
suffer from sleeplessness, rheumatism,
neuralgia, brain trouble, nervous ex-
haustion, and sometimes the heart acts
badly. '
The cause is weak, unhealthy kid-
eys.
Usually the sufferer from kidney
disease does not find out what the
trouble is until it is almost too late, be-
cause the first symptoms are so like
mild sickness that they do net think
they:need a medicine or a doctor until
theyfind themselves sick in bed.
Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root will build
up and strengthen their weak and dis-
eased. kidneys, purify their diseased,
kidney'poisoned blood, clear their com—
plexion and soon they will enjoy better
health. -

drug store, at fifty cents and one dol-

According tothe laws of good society
in China, young widows should not re—
marry. Widowhood is therefore held
in the highest esteem. and the older the
widow grows the more agreeable her
position becomes. Should she reach 50
years she may, by applying to the cm—
pcror, get a sum of money with which
to buy a tablet, on which her virtues
are named. The tablet is placed over
the door at lhe principal entrance of

Our Recent Great Achievements Not '
' Relished In Austria.
LONDON, April ‘22.—The.Vienna cor-
respondent of The Titfiesfdwelling upon
“the displeasure and jealousy which
America’s naval and military prowess,
coupled with her rapprochement to
Great Britain, has produced throughout
Austi'iajflungary, intensifying the ap-
prehensions long held here regarding
her astounding industrial and commer-.
cial progress,” quotes an editorial from
the Vaterland, the Clerical organ, on
the Samoan imbroglio. , _
The Vaterland describes the Samoanr’
affair as “one of the most important
subjects to European State policy and
international diplomacy that can arise
for a long time lo come.” The editorial
continues in the following vein:
“The first shot Admiral Kautz fired at
Samoa was the initiation of a policy of
aggression against Europe, the com-
mencement of a struggle for naval su-
premacy.”
The Vaterland attributes most of the
difficulties confronting not only the
German races, but all continental pow-
ers, to the “Shylock policy of Great
Britain" and to American commercial
competition. It regards the Anglo-
American combination as superior in
naval and economic strength to either
the dual or ‘the triple alliance and ad-
vocates united action by all European
powers against it. .
