The Mystery of Dimples.

Certain beuutifiers declare that
even in the adult they can produce
dimples by semi-surgical process.
This may be, but, after all, the Sc.
crete spring of the dimple is the soul.
As the latter overhows with smiles
the face assumes radiance that art
cannot initiate. Blue eyes or black
sparkle as the light rushes upward
from it's hidden caves, cheeks glow
and dimples appear. For a girl, two
dimples, one at each corner. OF the
mouth or near those points, are n
lavish gift. The daintiest smile will
bring them out we'll defined and raw
ishing, n broad grin will expand
them into burrows. Therefore it is
woman's privilege TO smile. ifshe hns
dimples. This is no news to the fair
sex. A woman with dinples would
not lose one Tor the world. She is
very carful of them. and regulates
her smiles to the capacity OF her dim
Piles.
Moreover, by smiling a woman
may produce a pretty good imitation
of a dimple-a dimpleoid, the der.
matologists would call it. Young
girls practice this before mirror,
and with remarkable success. A
half hour a day for about two years
is generally sufficient to roduce
good results. The operation is sim
pie. First, carefully ascertain the
effect OF an ordinary smile. Note the
expansion OF the mouth. Next place
u thumb and forefinger, one in each
furrow made by the smile; then al
ternately relax and contract the
smile, at the same time pressing
heavily on the burrows. One thing
must be avoided in order to give
the operation u fair trial. In eating
be careful to move only the jaws dur
ing mastication. Do not move the
whole lace. Many darling dimple,
by the latter error, is lost irretriev-
ably. And, above NIL, practice the
came smile without deviation.

Rising and Falling In Church.

A we'll known Indiana member Of
congress had as q visitor recently q
constituent from the backwoods who
was not very we'll acquainted with
the interior ofthe house of divine wor-
ship. but who had thoroughly deter.
mined that he would see everything
there was to be seen at the national
capital during his stay here. Sunday
morning, therefore, he announced
that he was going to church.
Now, the Indiana member was not
much of q churchgoer himself In
fact, he usually devotes his Sunday
mornings to his cOrrespOn dence,
which has fallen behind in the course
of the week. He allowed his constit-
uent to wander off by himself to find
place of worship. About l o'clock
the Indiana man returned. His host
asked him where he had been. He
responded in q matter of fact sort OF
way that he had been to we'll known
Episcopal church in the neighhor-
hood, which he named.
"How did You get along?" said the
host. didn't you feel a bit stranger"
''Oh, no." said the Indiana man
solemnly. "Ifelt all right. / riz and

The Prince and the Sentinel.

The Petite Presse tells n funny
story about the young prince royal
of Greece. A year ago this young
man was engaged to the princess inn
perial of Germany, and Immediately
set out on his sparkling expedition.
The young lady lived in the palace of
Potsdam, and the prince used to 60
there frequently from Berlin. At first
he made stated visits, and was taken
in a carriage from the railway station
to the palace. But one day he took
it into his head to pay an informal
visit. Dressed in plain civilian
clothes he boarded train, and on
arriving at the railway station took
the first vehicle he could hire. When
he reached the palace n sentinel was,
of course, at the gate.
"Wer da?" growled the big Prus-
sian.
""ris l." said the prince, "the
crown prince OF Greece and the fiance
of the princess. Let me pass"
"You are a nice looking prince
royal, you are! And n princess
masher, Ell? Get away!"
The prince insisted and got angry
The soldier thought he was a poor
crank, and tried to bring him to mis-
senses. Now, my fine fellow, ''said
he, don't make n fuss. You can
talk as much as you please, but
know my business. A prince. my
boy, always has fine uniform, with a
cooked hat and feathers and a bushel
of DECORATIONS. Oh, saw our Fritz,
and you can't fool me. Now go
away"
Noticing a lackcy the prince beck
oned to him, and after scribbliny a
few lines on the l,nck of a card told
him to take it to the empress. The
lackey went off on his errand. The
sentinel grinned Acrazy man might
fool n lackey but an old soldier
wasn't to be tnkenin. But what was
his astonishment when he saw the
princess coming to meet the poor
crank and welcoming him in the most
affectiOnate manner! Then she took
him into the palace.
"Well, I'll be d-d!" exclaimed
the sentinel, eff a beggar man comes
up to me the next time I'm on guard
and tells me he's the pope I'll knee
down and get his blessing"

BAKING or ELECTRICITY.
How the Grade of Different brands of
Hour Is AScersAtneds


Hour Is Ascersatned
The Minneapolis Journal SAYS: The
millers sell -four under different brands.
and. doubtless. many housewives have
wondered how the grade of each brand
continued Uniform. generally making
bread OF the same quality. A visit 70
the 'dough-room' Of the big Pillsbury
-four mills would reveal the secret.
Piled all around the room are little
pasteboard boxes, each filed with wheat
or -four, and each bearing label The
dough man takes the half-pound of
wheat In one OF the boxes. puts IL in q
small hand-nill and grinds It. The
bran and starch are quickly washed out,
leaving the gluten, which is worked
into q sort of paste. This Is baked in
small oven, md the height TO which il
rises determines the value for bread
making Of the consignment of wheat OF
which the handful ground was sample.
.'Wlren the attention Of Electrician
Hughes, who has charge of tho electrical
plant of tho nill, was attracted 10 this
baking oven, he observed that il took
long time 70 heat il to the baking point
by means Of tho oil-lamps under it, and
he at once formed the ideaof baking the
gluten by electricity, with the result
that he has just applicda a most interest
ing little device, which in its way is
quite a wonder.
''The millers had always had trouble to
secure an oven that would do this work
satisfactorily, and the best one they
could buy came from England. 1t Is
about fourteen inches in height, with a
cement bottom two inches In thickness,
and door twelve inches high. 1t took
one hour and forty minutes 20 heat this
oven to tho 500 degrees Fahr. necessary
for baking the gluten, and then when
the large door was opened 70 put in tho
gluten, about 100 degrees of temperature
would be lost, and it required fifteen
minutes TO bake the dough.
''In the Hughes oven the small piece
Of gluten Is placed in a cylindrical brass
case. about an inch in diameter, which
in turn is placed in the oven, also cylin-
drical in form, and at temperature of
500 degrees the gluten is baked in four
minutes, the entire operation of heat
ing the oven and baking requiring less
than twelve minutes. The test Of the
gluten is in the height to which it will
rise. In the little cylindrical tube is
placed plunger bearing a weight Of
eleven and a half ounces, pressed down
closely on the gluten, which, in rising.
carries the weight upward. The higher
it lifts it in the tube, the stronger are
tho bread-rnalsing qualities Of the wheat
from which the gluten was taken, and
the milling of the proper proportions Of
the different grades Of wheat, as deter
mined by the gluten tests, produces tho
required standard Of -four. 1t is in this
way that the brands are kept even Mr..
Hughes simply connects his oven with
the regular electric current IN the mills,
and acquires the desired result without
4 tiresou1o and expensive delay. 1t can
be heated 10 ESQ degrees"

TIE Topeka Capital in its issue of
Saturday takes the same ground as
was taken by the LIGHT two weeks
ago in defending the Pan-American
congress from the attacks of those
who could not see the utility ola work
not done openly and with hurrah.
The Capital says:
A little thought, however, will sug-
gest that it was not constituted to ac-
complish anything purely of itself.
The value of the conference consists,
therefore, in the virtue of its recon-
mendatiOns and the lively interest
which, as all must cOncede, has been
aroused in the developments Of inter
American commerce.
The results of this conference de-
pend not less upon the legislative
bodies of the several republics and
their administrations then upon the
congress itself.
