Shanks soon recovered, and he and
Joe were always after that fastfriends.
With his new strength came new
life, and no one in all the "diggins
around Savage Gulch showed more
interest in the affairs of life than he
did. Joe, too, became a different
man, for now that he could look at
his hands and realize that they were
free from murder, he no longer felt
that the world was against Linn, and
then those memories ofthe old home

through his life to add sunshine and
sweetness to it.

Joe and Shanks were the first to 60

were sitting around the saloon when
one asked:
"Joe has quit comm around ter SET

The nandkerchiers History.

An authority on the subject of
dress gives the following interesting
information on the subject: The
handkerchief as an outward and Wis
ible article was first introduced in
France, but until the reign OF the
Empress Josephine a handkerchief
was thought so shocking an object
that a lady would never have dared
to use it before any one. The word
even was carefully avoided in refined
conversation. An actor who would
have used a handkerchief on the
stage, even in the most fearful mo-
ments OF the play, would have been
numerically Kissed; and it was only
in the beginning of the present centu-
ry that a celebrated actress, Mile.
Duchesnois, dared to appear with
handkerchief in her hand. Having
to speak of this handkerchief in the
course of the speech she could never
summon enough courage to call it by
it's true name, but referred t it as a
light ;ssue. A few years later q
translation of one of Shakespeare's
p VS. by Alfred de Vigny having been
acred, the word handkerchief was
used for the FIRST time on the stage
amid cries of great Indignation from
every part ofthe house. The Empress
Josephine, although really lovely,
had bad teeth. To conceal them she
was in the habit of carrying small
handkerchief adorned with costly
laces, which she constantly raised
gracefully to her lips. OF course all
the ladies of the court followed her
example and handkerchief rapidly
became an important part of the
feminine toilet. Naturally French
fashion soon became world fashion.

Care Orths Hands.

All Sorts of Housekeeping gloves
now come for the hands-chamois
gloves for busting, etc; rubbergloyes
for wet work, and even cooking
gloves-so that there is no need that
woman should spoil her pretty fin
gers. To keep the hands soft and
white, or to get them so, dry them
with oatmeal and then rough tow
Ell, and occasionally add little al
mond paste, which can be procured
at any drug store. 1t is not well to
plunge the hands into either very
cold or very hot water. For stains
caused by ink, paint or other similar
substances, one of che best treat
ments is to put a few drops Of oil OF
vitrol in the water and wash the
hands without soap. For any light
er stains vaseline is excellent.

Boston Traveller: When Andrew

States he appointed on the 21st of March,
in 1929. after the senate had adjourned.
Isaac Hill. of New Hampshire, second
comptroller of the treasury. Isaac Hill
was the editor of the New Hampshire
Patriot, at that time one of the leading
democratic papers of the country. He
welded a vigorous pen, was n intense
partisan and made bitter enemies by his
editorial utterances. When at last the
senate came to act on his nomination in
May, 1880, his enemies resolved to
punish him for his attacks on them,
and so rejecting his nomination.

months later, however, Isaac Hill

Clay and John G. Calhoun, then its pre-
siding officer, were the chief. They
decided to punish Van Buren,, and humil-

the senate they composed its rejection,
and brought their personal and political
enemy home. They broke a minister,

Queer Thines in Trees.

New York Sun: Among the queer
things in Connecticut are IFS trees. Ur
in Middletown last week it was necessary
to cut down a tree in the rear of but.
ting's cigar store. Several bricks were
found imbedded in the roots, so that only
the corners were visible.
Over in Cobalt a large and particularly
straight tree was felled early in the fall,
and last week it vas drawn to the saw.
mill. After starting the saw the attend
ant heard a grating of the saw teeth and
stopped the mill. He tried another cut,
but again the grating sound was heard
and he had to shut down again. Several
further 2tiempts to saw the length of the
log proving futile the trunk was sawed
across. and an old log chain and a dozen
harrow teeth were discovered imbedded
in the hard grained wood.
In Wesitield q boulder weighing over
half a ton is to be seen about ten feet
from the ground in the crotch of an enor
nous apple tree. and old residents say
that they can remember when that bout.
der could be sat upon, so near to the
ground was it when they were young.
