POINTS ABOUT PEPPERS.
Use Your Eyes Carefully to Make
Them Last.

Cassell's Magazine.
Sit erect in your chair when reading,
and as erect when writing as possible.
If you bend downward you not only
gorge the eyes with blood but the brain
as well, and both suffer. The same rule
should apply to the use of the micro
scope. Get one that will enable you
to look at things horizontally, not al
ways vertically.
Have reading lamp for night use.
N. BIN reading the light should be
on the book Or paper and the eyes In
the shade. IfyOu have no reading lamp
turn your back to the light, and you
may read without danger to the eyes.
Hold the book at your focus; il that
begins to get far away get spectacles.
Avoid reading by the fickeaing light
of the fire.
Reading in bed is injurious as rule.
1t must be admitted, however, that in
cases of sleeplessness, when the mind is
inclined to ramble over thousand
thoughts minute, reading SteadieS
the thoughts and cOnduceS to sleep.
Do not read much in railway car
rage. myself always do, however, only
in good light, and invariably carry
a good reading lamp to hook on behind
me. Thousands of people would travel
by night rather than by day, If the COM
panies could only see their way to the
exclusive use of the electric light.
Authors should have black ruled paper
instead of blue, and should never strain
the eyes by reading to fine types.
The bedroom blinds should be red
or gray, and the head of the bed should
be toward the window.
Those. ladies who not only write but
sew should not attempt the black seam
by night.
When you come to an age that sug-
gests the wearing of spectacles let no
false mOdesty prevent you from getting
pair. If you have only one eye an
eyeglass will do; otherwise it is folly.
Go to the wisest and best optician you
know of and state your wants and your
case plainly, and be assured you will be
properly fitted.
Remember that bad spectacles are
most injurious to the eyes, and that
good and well-chosen ones are decided
luxury.
Get q pair for reading with, and if
necessary lOng-distance pair for use
ont of doors.

HE CHANGED THE STONE.
How a Young Society Swell Came
Near Getting Into Trouble.

Milwaukee Sentinel.
An old case came up before a justice
of the peace yesterday. A young swell,
whose name not infrequently appears
in the society columns of the papers,
met a friend who owns handsome
diamond solitaire of considerable value.
He saw the gem scintiIlate on the finger
of the latter, and engaged him in con-
versation, and in an unaffected way re-
marked:
by the way. let me have your ring
until tomorrow. Pm going to a party
tonight and would like to wear it."
Certainly" and the ring sparkled on
the hand of the swell young man.
The next day the young blood re-
turned the ring to its owner. as he had
promised to do. There was something
about the diamond, however, that
aroused the suspicion of the own
er, and when he took it to jeweler the
latter at once pronounced the supposed
gem paste. Without waste of time the
owner of the diamond had the young
blood summoned before a justice yes
terday, and the latter confessed that he
had substituted paste for the diamond
and pawned the real stone for $50. BY
means of copious promises to get the
diamond out of pawn within certain
time he got himself out of bad scrape.

aration lasted two months, and it went
through the same course as cOwhide,
with the difference that each phase of
the work took three times as much time.
The skin should be stretched in the pit,
and placed in the middle of cowhides.
Six layers of powder are then thrown
in; two first, two second and two third
layers. Altogether the tanning takes
three years. The partition of. time is
thus: Becoming green, forty days;
worked, sixteen days: preparation, fifty
days; repetition. sixty days; first pit
(double), 200 days; second pit (double)
500 days; third pit (double), 400 days.

Hints on the Dressing of It--.Mary
Anderson as a COmmon-Sense
Girl.
Mary Anderson is credited with hav-
ing given the low-heeled English shoes
their wide popularity among American
women.
The feet of a statue in the sculpture
collection at the Paris exhibition were
modelled after those of fashionable
young lady, and the marble nymph has
prominent joints, with the big toes
turned back on the little ones, Just as if
she had walked through Already wear
ing the most fashionable of fashionable
boots.
Only about eight people out of every
hundred have both feet of the same
size. Generally the left foot Is larger
than the right, althOughit is not uncOm-
mon to see the latter the larger.
Short people are now made taller by
false feet made of cork, into which the
lines of the natural feet are SO carefully
blended that the deception is scarcely to
be detected.
Many pairs of good boots are spoiled
by placing them too near the heat when
they are wet. A much better plan
would be to leave them where it is
moderately warm and allow them to dry
gradallv.
Children's boots will wear much long
er and keep in better condition if they
are oiled before wearing at all, and a
coating of oil is put on once in every
few weeks. At first the leather Will
look gray, and will take no polish what
ever, but this treatment will make the
leather soft, and will prevent its crack
ing if it gets damp.
Women who are obliged to go out in
all kinds of weather should be provided
with pair Of stout boots, to be worn
only OH rainy days. Nothing will spoil
a good pair of shoes quicker than tramp
ing about in the mud and rain, and
every one knows the effects of rubbers
on leather.
Children's feet are often spoiled in
shape by being cramped into shoes that
look real SWEET to the mother, but
are neither large enough nor properly
shade.
