"Door plates are going out of fash- ion, said a man whose business it is to snake plates of all, kinds, "Twenty years ago every man of prom- inence had his name graven upon a plate and that plate affixed to his front door, that all might know who dwelt within. The daily task of the negro houseman was to rub the door plate until it shone. It took the place of the Lases and Penates of the Romana, and was attended to ust as caro.' ly as were the ancient household gods, "Everything is change- now, though. I suppose the reassn Is that people don't have homes as they used to. They simply live in houses and apartments and move around so much that a door plate couldn't pos- sibly endure the peripatetic existence. A collection of brass door plates screwed to the portal of a big apart- ment building would, I confess, look rather odd. --From the Louisville Cour- ier -journal. a.• SHE COULD NOT HOLD A TEACUP But Dodd's Kidney Pills cured Mrs. James H.

Orioles do royal service in retelling wee- vils on the bolls, and blackbirds, wrens, flycatchers and others contribute to the good work, but when swallows are mi- grating over the cotton fields they find the weevils flying in the open and wage active war against them.

They ale the most fatal time of the year for bab- ies and young children, because of the great prevalence of stomach and bowel troubles. These come almost . without' warning and often before the mother realizes that there -is danger the little one may be beyond aid: No other medi- cine can equal Baby's Own Tablets in promptly curing ,bowel and stomach troubles and an occasional dose given the well chill?' will keep the stomach and bowels free from offending matter and ensure good health to the child.

James H. 'White, a farmer's wife living near here, is again a well woman. Dodd's Kidney Pills cured her. "Aly trouble started from a strain" Mrs, White states, "I had a pain al- ways across my back and a steady pain in the back of my neck, and 1 had urin- ary trouble that caused me a great deal of annoyance. "For four years I suffered in this way and the doctor consulted did not do me any 3asting good. In the morning I was dizzy and I finally got so nervous 1 could not hold a cup. "Then I started to use Dodd's Kidney Pills, and 1 got relief right from the start. Three boxes cured me complete- ly. To -day I am a well woman." Mrs. White's troubles were Kidney troubles. So are the troubles of nine out of tea of the suffering women of Canada to -day. , That is why Dodd's Kidney Pills always cure them. SUMMER RESORT WATER. In all cases where pollution of the sup- ply of drinking water is suspected, it should be boiled for twenty minutes be- fore using, Cool the water so treated by placing iee around and not in the ves- sel containing the water. By doing this, possible pollution from using impure ice will be avoided. Many people do not like the "flat" taste of boiled water. This eau be re- moved by a simple process of aeration. Tie several thicknesses of cheese cloth over the jar containing the water that has been boiled and place in the open sir. In a little while it will be as sweet and palatable as before treatment. eSs owl1fN211124; HOURS:Ynu a Painlessly "remove auy eon, elti.e5 hard, soft or bleeding, Ly applying Putnam': Corn Patr. ieror.

The curfew bell is that about which most has been written and said. It has been thought that it was only used in England, but it was quite common on. the continent in the middle ages. The ringing of bells by rope is still very poular in ]England, especially in the country, where almost every hamlet, however small, has its church with its peal of bells, which are often remarkably well rung. The first peal of bells in Eng- land was sent by Pope Calixtus ill. to King's College, Cambridge, and was for three hundred years the largest peal in England. About the beginning of the year 1500 sets of eight bells were hung in e. few of-. the large churches. In the middle of the seventeenth cen- tury a man named White wrote a fern- ous work on bells, in which he intro- duced thesystem of numbering them 1, 2, 3, 4, ete., on slips of paper in dif- ferent orders, according to the changes intended to be rung. It is calculated that to ring ail the changes upon 24 bells at two strokes a second would take 117 million years. One of the most famous bells in the world is the first great bell of Moscow, which now stands in the middle of :a square in that `city and is used as ,e, chapel. This bell was east in 17.33, but wits in the earth for more than a hun- dred years, being raised in 1836 by the Emperor Nicholas. It is nearly twenty feet high, has a eireumferenee elf hlxty feet, is two feet thick, and weighs a�lmost two bunched tons. 'The second it oaeq bell, which is the largest tell in. the world that is actusclly in use, weighs 128 tons. There are several bells extant which weigh ten tong and over, of which 13ig' Ben, the . largest bell in Eng- land, weighing between thirteen and fourteen tons, is one.
