WEATHER PROGNOSTICATION: Warm weather followed by avarmer to hot. Occasional flur~ ries of cracked ice in the vicinity of Golf and other Clubs, with pro- longed drought in Maine and other Prohibition States. ‘OW IS the time when Mr. Merk- Ury begins his solid work, And makes the old Thermometaire Climb sixty miles up in the air, Until, with buzz and whir and zipp, It hits the broad blue sky a clip. The katydid begins to fight And argufies the livelong night On what she did and didn’t do— Just what the point we never knew. It would be nice, at any rate, If Katy’d kindly arbitrate And ever after hold her peace Or else be nabbed by the police. Th’ electric fans begin to whizz, To mitigate the solar sizz; While out upon the red-hot pave The barrel organ sounds a stave NOTES ON THE ABOVE DATES. August days are, as a rule, so tender that consumers unpacking this consignment must be very careful not to handle them roughly. August Sabbaths are particularly fragile, and care must be taken not to break them. Unprincipled competitors of this company have stated that our August days are dog days, We do not, as a rule, pay any atten- tion to the slanders of jealous rivals; but we will pay ten thousand dollars to the fa- vorite charity of any consumer who factorily proves to us that these days are any better for dogs than for human beings. We recommend that these days be spent, in 80 far as is possible, in the country, where their purchasing power will be found much greater than in the city. Those who like them very hot, however, will find them quite up to standard in the cities. Week-enders will find the eixth, seventh, thirteenth, fourteenth, twentieth, twenty- first, twenty-seventh, and twenty-eighth especially adapted to their needs, having been so arranged that they occur at the proper time for such u The Ideal Beverage for an ideal Outing YE POEMME OF YE MONTH.

Tip met, lest yc be tapped. The bold mosquito takes his fill And plies his unreceipted bill Upon the unjust and the just, Until his tummy’s fit to bust. The vagrom pup now has his day And wanders idly on his way, Until the catcher, dark and g: Doth come along and capture him. The cat upon the backyard fence Grows sentimental and intense, And woos his harem with a zest That beats a Sultan at his best. The lightning goes on strike and splits The welkin into little bits, The while the thunder cracks and roars Like sixty thousand bass-drum corps. From all of which ‘tis more than clear The sizzling month of Aug. is here. SUGGESTIONS FOR THE MONTH. Bathrobes will be found more comfortable for general wear during August than buffalo robes or fur-lined overcoats. To relieve the loneliness of your husband left in town during the summer season, @ talking machine containing a few gentle re- minders of your existence in your own voice will help some. You can tell on your re- turn, from the worn condition of the records how frequently it has been used. A comfortable and unique hat for these Ce eer BEYOND A DOUBT. Stlla—" Do you think she is only sixteen ?"* Violette—" Yes, I'm sure of it, because she seemed pleased when I told her she looked older."” midsummer days can be made of an old berry box lined with fresh lettuce leaves; or, if your head is too large for the available boxes, a lampshade with a close-meshed mosquito netting drawn taut over the top to keep the wasps out.

This trouble grew worse steadily. “Sometimes it would beat fast and at other times very slowly, so that I would hardly be able to do work for an hour or two after breakfast, and if I walked up a hill it gave me a severe T had no idea of what the trouble was until a friend suggested that per- haps it might be caused by coffee drink- ing. I tried leaving off the coffee and began drinking Postum. The change came quickly. I am now glad to say that I am entirely well of the heart trouble and attribute the cure to leav- ing off coffee and the use of Postum. “* A number of my friends have aban- doned coffee and have taken up with Postum, which they are using steadily. There are some people that make Postum very weak and tasteless, but if it is boiled long enough, according to direc- tions, it is a very delicious beverage. We have never used any of the old- fashioned coffee since Postum was first started in our house.” Read the little book, ‘‘ The Road to Wellville,”” in packages. ‘‘ There's a Reason.""
