N | THE CONFESSIONS OF ROXANE (By Frances Walter) After Taking Only One Box Of "Fruit-a-tives" Easr Smip Harsous, N. S. "It is with great pleasure that I write to tell you of the wonderful benefits 1 have received from taking "Fruit-a- tives". For years, I was a dreadful sufferer from Comstipation and Head- aches, and 1 was miserable in every way. Nothing in the way of medicines seemed to help me. Then I finally tried *"Fruit-a-tives" aod the effect was splendid. After taking one box, I feel like a new person, to have relief from those sickening Headaches. Mss.

Don't use pre- pared shampoos or anything else that contains too much alkali, for this is very injurious as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. The best thing to use is just plain mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats anything else all to pleces. You can get this at any drug store and a few ounces will last the whole family for. months. Simply moisten. thé. hair. with water and rub it in, about a tea- spoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, and rin- ses out easily.

(Copyright, 1916, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate) There is but one more chapter to record before I can close all reference in these notes to the unhappy girl whose death cast such a shadow upon my life and upon that of the mam who had yearned to make her his wife. Sylvia's body was found in the river three days after she disappear- ed from the home of Mrs. Bake's nurse Edward took its care upon J himself, and the next day he and i followed it to its last resting place. I notified her uncle of her dedth, but received no reply, and I inferred from his silence that Sylvia had des- ¢ribed him correctly when she declar- ed he was intolerant of the faults of cthers. So Edward and | were the only ones besides the clergyman in the car which followed the hearse to the cemetery. After the simple cere- mony was said and all that was mor- tal of Sylvia Thorne lay under the sod, Edward and I returned sorrow- fully to my home. "May I come in for a moment?" he pleaded, as we stopped in front of my door. I bowed consent and soon we threw ourselves wearily upon the roft cush- ions in my sitting room. Edward was the first to speak. "Mrs. Pembroke," he said, "I know that you will never see me again, but I cannot tell you good-by without a word." I feared that he was about to thang me for my effort to aid Sylvia, and, despite the depression upon which I naturally labored, I was prepared to resent such an attitude. But I was in error "I want to tell you that Sylvia's death has made me see things in a new light," he went on hoarsely. "Of course, I know that you are not in- terestel in me, and that it means no- thing to you what becomes of me, but I want to tell you this because you were Sylvia's nearest friend, and because in speaking to you I febl as if somehow Sylvia herself will know what I am saying. "I have never been a man of vic- fous habits. 1 have sown on wild oats, but I am just as guilty as it 1 had. I have had other faults which have been just as bad. I have been weak and | have learned a terrible lesson because of my weakness. have learned that a weakling may cause just as much sorrow as a man who is deliberately wicked, I have been afraid to do things~ which 1 ought to do. vw) = | the truth has nerved me to face ifs with & sterner resolution. "As | sald just now, this cannot in terest you, But it would interes! Sylvia if she were living. And I an telling her these things through vou I am giving Sylvia the assurance tha her death has made me a diferent man. From this time on 1 shall noi flinch from my duty. I shall not try to place upon other shoulders the res ponsibility which rests upon my own In other words, Mrs. Pembroke, | shall be a man from this tfme on. "And 1 shall begin. by dealing ir a proper manner with Mrs. Blake The time has Passed when I will per mit such an influence to dog my foot steps. 1 shall have .done with he: at once. The accursed alliance whicl my poor father arranged for busines: reasons shall be broken. She can gc her way and I shall go mine. If he: conscience is capable of suffering re morse, then theré is hope that she too, may seek a higher life, but what ever her fate may be, it will be irre trievably separated from mine. shall live with the memory of Sylvi: ,ouly in my heart. In life I could not have her for my own, but in deat} she shall be mine always, and if this thing which is called spiritual life be a true state of being, then it is pos sible that, some day, somehow, | ma) yet be hers and she may be mine." And so he passed out of my life (To be continued). TO REINFORCE THE 38TH Capt. Dodds Commissioned to Raise Draft, Cornwall, June 16.--Capt.

Hints How to Keep Vegetables Fresh All Winter. EXPERT GIVES THIS ADVICE. Most House Cellars May Be So Ma- nipulated That They Give Good Stor age to the Commonest Tubers--Just How to Make the Pit. There are three important considera- tions in connection with the placing bles in st The .vegetabk themselves should be of good quality, free from disease or bruises; they must not be put in too early or piled so that any® heating will take place, and they must not be subjected to an atmosphere which is so dry that it will canse wilt- ing and thereby spoil their quality. It is possible for the home gardener to keep root crops, potatoes, cabbage and squash for months in most house cel- lars with the exercise of some precau- tions, even where a cool cellar is not provided. Vegetables should be stored as far away from the heater as possible, ex- cepting in cellars where freezing oc- curs. If there is a cement floor it is best to pack the root crope in boxes or barrels and cover the top with clean sand or sifted soil in which there is not much organic matter. A covering of about two inches is sufficient. In case either the commercial grower or the home gardener lacks a storage place there is an alternative which is available to almost every ene who has a garden. Thig is the vegetable "pit." The essentials are a well drained plece of land conveniently located and some material to. cover the pit after cold weather comes. The crops which can be successfully bandled in this way are beets, carrots, parsnips, turnips, winter radishes, sal- sify, horseradish and cabbages. The outdoor vegetable pit is made in the following manner: On the spot selected measure off a space shree or four feet wide and as long @s desired. Plan to have the pit extend north and south. The soil should be removed eight to twelve inches deep the width of the pit and one-half of the earth thrown out on either side. The bottom ef the pit should be made level and the sides cut straight down. The root crops are then piled en the ground the full width of the excavation and brought to a ridge about two and a half feet deep at the center. Rarely will the home gar- Jener need a pit more than six or eight feet long. and it is wisdom for him to mix roots stored so that,all sorts can be obtained at one end. The commercial grower ywill do well to use the pit for each kimi of vegeta- ble. stored. The roots should not be piled before the weather isicool. They should be dry and coveredawith about two inches of soil to prevent frost in- jury or wilting. As the weather grows colder and preferably after the first soil covering has frozen nearly to the vegetables more coveringishould be ap- plied to a thickness of two to four inches. It is well to algtain this soll alongside of the pit in such a way that good drainage will be assured. After more cold weather additional covering of straw, meadow hay, leaves or simi lar good protective material is added. PARISIAN MODEL. How the French Are Turning Out Fall Turbans.
