and healthful, and no better food

be benefited by its use, and dyspep-
STA troubles would all be done away
with. Oatmeal is very substantial

Opening the fountans.-In numberless bulbs be-
meath the skin is secreted the liquid substance
which gives the hair its texture, color and gloss.
When this secretion stops the hair begins at once
to become dry ustreless brittle and gray. Is that
the condition of your hair? If so, apply Park9r's
Hair Basam at once. 1t will restore the color,

CREAM CANDY.-Here is nice re-
ceipt for cream candy which may be
used in variety of ways. Take 2
cups white sugar and Il cup sweet
cream or milk Put in bright tin or
granite ware and boil five minutes
without stirring. Take from the fire,
flavor with vanilla and stir till cold
and stiff, form into balls and place
on buttered plate to harden. They
may be rolled in dessicated cocoanut
or in melted chocolate or English
walnut meats may be pressed on the
top of each ball. To melt the chloe
olate scrape or shave it into a cup
and set it in a pan of hot water until
melted. The boiled cream and SUI
gar favored and stirred till quite
thick makes an excellent filling for
cakes and is a good substitute for
icing.

old.Tinas Hot Summers,

In 1903 and 1904, according to g
French periodical, the Rhine Loire and
Seine ran dry. In 1915 the heat
throughout Europe became excessive.
Scotland suffered particularly in 1925;
men and beasts died in scores. The
heat in several departments during the
summer Of 1903 was equal to that in q
glass furnace. Nest could be cooked
by merely exposing it to the sun. Not
. soul dare venture out between noon
and 4 p. m. In 1718 many shops had
70 close; the theatres never opened
their doors for several months. Not q
drop of water fell during six months.
In 1853 the Thermometer rose to 116
degrees. In 1873 the heat at Bologns
was so great that great number Of
people were stifled. There was not
sufficient air for the breath, and people
hsd to take refuge under ground. In
July, 1893 the heat became intolerable.
Vegetables were burned mp and fruit
dried upon the trees. The furniture
and woodwork In dwelling houses
cracked and split up; meat went bad in
an hour. The rivers ran dry in several
provinces during 1911; expedients had
70 be devised for the grinding of corn.
In 1922, protracted heat was accom-
panied BY storms and earthquakes;
during the drought legions of mice
overran Lorraine and Alsace, commit
ting incalculable damage. In 1882 the
heat brought about cholera in France;
10000 persons fell victims to the vista
ton in Paris alone. In 1915 the Their.
Rlometer marked 125 degrees in the
sun. Finally, the summers Of 1859,
1850, 1860, 1870, 1874 &C., although
excessively hot were not attended by
any disaster.

One of the most remarkable historical
mysteries ON record, rivalling that Of
the identity Of the man in the iron mask,
is that of the sex Of the Chevslier d'Eon,
who was French Envoy to England in
1851. He acted as private agent ia
Louis XIV. and lived in London for
fourteen years. He was handsome
man Of rather efeminate appearance,
and was noticed TO be very shy of the
ladies and to avoid general society.
While he was there the story got about
that he was woman, and the scandal
thus aroused caused King Louis to re-
call his ambassador and order him to
assume his proper dress, that Of .
woman. This she did and was always
afterwards known as Nine. d'Eon. A
life Of this remarkable parsonage stated
that she assumed the dress Of youth
in order to secure higher educational
opportunities, and thus entered the Col
lege Mazarin, at Paris, and afterwards
became doctor of laws, and the author
of several learned volumes, and was in
PRODUCED by Prince de Cont to the
King. Il was said that the King knew
the secret of her sex; but for her re-
markable talents selected her to under
take secret mission to Russia, which
was so we'll performed that she was
afterwards sent to London. During
the French Revolution Nine. d'Eon
again went to England, where she died
in 1910. After her death it was asserted
that the character of woman was
disguise, and that Mime. d'Eon was
man, after all. But the facts in the case
are not regarded as proven either way.
This curious parsonage, it might be re-
marked, never contracted q marriage in
the character Of either sex.
