Sugar at Retail.

Grocers assert everywhere that
there is little or no profit in retailing
sugars, and housekeepers confirm
this by saying that there is small
economy in buying sugar by the key.
The tradition touching the small
profit in handling sugar at retail is
certainly more than 100 years old,
for a writer in the middle of last CEN
tury affirmed that London grocers of
that day were often out EGO to 80 a
year for paper and pack thread used
in wrapping up sugar, and some
grocers would not sell sugar to a Gus
toner who did not at the same time
purchase some other article. = Chica-

How Horses s1eep.

There are some horses that have
never been seen to lie down in their
lives, " said Henry T. Potrin, a Min
nesota stockman. "Some horses that
continue to work for years always
sleep standing, but their rest is not
complete, and their joints and sinews
stiffen. Young horses from the coun-
try are liable to refuse to lie down
when first placed in a stable in town,
and the habit may become confirmed
unless special pains are taken to pre-
vent it.
''Sick horses are very apt to refuse
to lie down. They seem to have an
instructive fear that if they lie down
they will never be able to get on
their feet again. I once rode a horse
20 miles in a single day. I put the
animal in as comfortable stable
as could be made, but he stood up all
night, going to sleep with his breast
against the manger." = ST. Louis

The KOssutIl Hat,

The announcement Of the death of
Louis Kossuth revives the remem-
brance of an incident which at this
time is interesting. It will be / J
membered how Kossuth was received
with boundless enthusiasm when he
visited this country in 1851. Among
the thousands going down to the Bat
terry to welcome the great orator and
patriot was Mr.. Henry A. Hurlbut,
at that time member Of the firm Of
Swift & Hurlbut, who were largely
interested in the hat manufacturing
business.
Noticing Kossuth's peculiar head
gear, adorned with a feather, he con-
ceived the idea of manufacturing
new style Of soft hats and to place
them upon the market under the
name "Kossuth hat. The new style
made tremendous hit. Kossuth
hats were all the rage. From this
little incident dates the fashion of all
sorts of soft hats and top hats un-
known heretofore in the American
hat business. New York Tribune.

60Tif For TatO

Professor Skeat, in his Etymo1og-
ica1 Dictionary, explains the express
sion as elbow for blow" and says
that it is a corruption Of tip for
tap, where tip is slight tap. He
refers to Bullinger's works, 1, 283
Parker society, the translation of
which is, I believe, dated 1877. May
I be permitted to direct attention to
the fact that "tit for tat" had already
appeared at an earlier date in John
Heywood's "Proverbes, 1916?

Germanr,s First Windmill.

The first windmill in Germany was
built at Windshein1. The Augustine
monks at that place desired to build
one such as they had seen in Italy,
but the lord Of the manor forbade
them, declaring that the winds be-
longed to him. The monks applied
to the bishop of Utrecht, who
promptly laid down the fundamental
principle that no one had any power
over the winds of his diocese but
himself. He gave permission to
build the mill, and it was erected in
the closing years of the fourteenth
century. Exchange

THE BEST THING FOR WOMEN.

Cold Water Said to BE Perfect Cosmetic
When Properly Used.
It requires considerable courage to
take a cold morning bath in winter,
but there can be no doubt that it is
highly beneficial. The best authori-
ties upon the treatment Of the skin
and muscle tell us that there is moth.

ing frmness to flabby tissues, and
single trial is enough to convince any
one of the positive virtues that dwell
in this simple invigorant Wash. the
face with warm water, and it will
feel soft and relaxed, as if every
muscle hung loose from its support.
Then quickly battle it with cold wa
ter and it will at once regain its firm
ness and solidity.
The woman who habitually uses
warm or hot water upon her face
will bitterly regret it when she
awakens to the fact that the tissues
have been SO greatly weakened that
nothing will restore their vigor and
smooth the wrinkles.
If properly taken, cold bath is not
as startling as one would expect Few
women can endure a cold plunge,
and most advocates of this morning
tonic never immerse the body unless
they are very strong or very feshy.
To take cold bath first lay upon
the floor rug or strip of carpet that
will not be injured by a wetting, and
fill the bowl with cold water Battle
the hands, arms and face, douse the
shoulders and chest, and then intro
duce the feet one after the other and
douse to the knees. Each part should
be dried thoroughly as soon as bathed
and then rubbed vigorously until the
skin is warm and glowing. The en-
tire operation will not require moro
than eight minutes. The woman who
bathes in this way is sure to have a
good appetite for her breakfast and
to feel at peace with all the world.
Cold water properly used is a perfect |
cosmetic for the plain woman, for it |
will brighten and clear her complex

quilizer for her who is nervous or IT.

woman whose strength is not quite
equal to the many demands made
upon it.
Bathing Of every description has
always been a prominent factor in
the toilet processes of famous beau
ties. Some misguided souls argue
that the face should never be washed
with soap, but surely surface that
is. SO constantly exposed should be
given as thorough a cleansing as any
other part. A good soap will not in

Tho Big Nosed Man,

only kind that makes its way through
