are the result of pressure. You see, the
blood is forced from the sebaceous
glands; therefore an excessive or unnat-

way to the surface of the toe. AS it
reaches the cuticle it ~evaporates, leav-

until it presses on the nerves. Corns
have no roots. That idea is fallacious.
But they cannot be cured until an in

soft corn is more easily treated and is
largely the result of acid in the blood.
AFTER q corn has been removed find

swell after much walking, put a little
vinegar in the hot water; if they ache,

from the treatment of painful excres-

Vegetable Dropsy.

Some experiments at Cornell univer.
sity have aroused much interest ON ac-
count of the development Of what APP
pears to be q form of plant dropsy.
Tomatoes grown in the warm, moist air
of the forcing houses had leaves that
were swollen and semitransparent. The
swelling continued until the veins OF
the leaves burst and considerable liquid
flowed out. This was caused by too
much water ut the roots and an over
supply in the air. The leaves were not
able to give off the water supplied from
the roots and stalks, and the cengested
condition Of the leaves and subsequent
bursting Of the veins was a true type
of a dropsical condition. New York

About the only Exercise In which

Dueling is the leading and almost the
only athletic sport In Italy, says the
Idler. 1t is true that there is an Alpine
club, so called because its members
climb the lesser heights Of the Apen-
mines, but there is no cricket, and, ex-
cept among the laboring classes. ball
games of even the mildest character
are hardly ever played. The young
Italian gentlemen finds in dueling an
exercise which Is beneficial to his mus
cIes and sufficiently exciting to Interest
him, and the middle-aged italian keeps

sionally challenges and fights II friend

have lost a genial interest in the inno-
cent pursuits of youth. Dueling Is con
trary to law in Italy, but the duelist Is
never punished unless he should acct
dentally kill a mani, except in the army,
where the sport Is obligatory and strict
ly prohibited. The same curious anom-
ally exists in Germany, where army
officers are arrested and punished IL
they fight a duel and either cashiered
or forced to resign If they do not. The
Italian officer, when challenged to fight,
Is virtually told, You'll be condemned
If you do and condemned If you don't"
This seems to the AnglO-Saxon decided
ly idiotic, but nothing can well be more
idiotic than dueling. Playing charades
in a drawing rises to philosophic
heights Of wisdom In comparison with
it. At least n~inety-nine out Of every
hundred Italian duels are of the class
technically known as first blood"
duels. That is to say, the combat
ceases the moment either Of the ad-
versaries loses blood. In these duels
the sword Is always used. and the

Tam OF Gray Suede in Place Of White
for Evening Wear.


The fancy for light gloves continues.
Pearl gray, undressed kid gloves light
ly stitched with black, and fastened by
four buttons, are worn at afternoon re-
ceptions, day weddings, for calling and
at the theater. White gloves are pre-
ferred for evening wear. You may find
these light colors ~unbecOming, as they
make the hands look larger, and they
use instead tan or gray suede gloves
both for day and evening, and with
dresses of all cOlors. Mousquetaire
gloves are best liked In soft suede,
and are also used in long gloves Of
dressed white or pearl-colored kid. For
shopping, travelling and general wear in
the morning the preference is still for
heavy kid gloves of reddish tan or oak
color, fastened by four large buttons.
Outing gloves of white wash leather
will be worn again in the SUMMER,
made In sac shape loose on the wrists,
or else closely fitting.-Harper's Bazaar.

Railroad B~aIlasted with silver Ore

Every n has heard that mahogany
railroad ties are used very largely In
Mexico, but not many people are aware
that on one of the lines the ties are OF
ebony, and that a low grade Of silver
ore is absolutely used for ballast. OF
course the explanation is that the ore
did not pay to work, but this does not
remove the impression OF lavish ex-
travagance which the first glance of
this luxurious roadbed creates. More
remarkable still, perhaps, is the beauty
