matter OF speculation how much mis-

diseases have been set up by the pres

become cntangled in folds of tho mu-
Gus membrane renders it desirable to
put tho public on their guard. Occa-
sionally the most disastrous results
have followed such small causes. We
have in recollection the case Of Il ply
sician who tried, after prolonged and
unexplained suifcrings, from the i'm
FACTION of very small nail which had
found Its way into a pudding, and was
inadvertantly swallowed. A little care
will avoid this contingency. but, re-
membcring that the bird had been shot,
some pains ought certainly to be taken
to avoid swallowing the pellets.

than usual, after washing the face well
squeeze out the cloth and just wipe The
skin off and let it remain on without
washing till morning. You will be as
tonishcd to sec how soon the frcckles
and tan will disappear. For keeping
the hands white and skin soft there Is
nothing equal to buttormilk. When
one gets burned with the hot sun, one
or two bathings in buLlcrmilk will
cause the smarting to cease, take out
Portable quicker than any other remedy
ever tried. There is something in the
acid contained in the buCtcrmilk that
does tie work. When one has stained
fingers, with either berries, apples or
nuts, It will remove the stains almost
Immediately. it is particularly cool
ing to the skin. You will never try
any other lotion for bcautifying the
complexion after using the Duttermilk,
If you can obtain it.
CARE OF CLoTHINa.-Itmake great
difference in the looks and wear OF a
hat or coat, whether it is thrown down

BLACK TEA TO COLOR IiA1R.-We do
not favor dycing the hair, but lady

black tea and steep 1t as you would for
table use: pour oil tea III bottle and
cork. When combing your halr, use it
for wetting the hair instead of water.
