mended for filing out ana developing
the muscles of the face: First. smile
as broadly as you can: then place three
fingers on the bunched-up portion OF
the cheek, and allow the features sud.
denly to relax, raising the fingers at
the same time. Continue to do this UNI
til tired The fingers should be placed
high on the cheek bone, so that the
muscles when smiling will push against
them, thus giving the desired resist
ance which is necessary to the enlarge
nent of the tissue. The second exer-
else is to again smile broadly. but this
time, instead of allowing the corners
of the mouth to be curved upward. try
to draw them out in a straight line to.
ward the center of the cheeks, then
place the two thumbs one on each cor.
ner of the mouth, and work the corners
backward and forward by relaxing and
contracting the mouth Exercise No.
three is with the chin. Press the lower
lip upward and it will be seen that the
chin will be raised and become hard;
crook the foreinger so as to make q
half circle and put it over the point OF
the chin, pressing it against the latter
as it rises, and relaxing tho pressure
instantly as it assumes its normal DO
sltion. In this exercise the teeth should
be kept closed. Most faces that are
thin are apt to be hollow between the
upper and the lower jaw, and two ex.
ercises are recommended for filing out
the cheeks. Take two small pieces of
India rubber. such as come in the ends
of pencils, and insert on each side Of
the mouth, between the back teeth,
close the teeth on them and chew,
spreading the teeth only far enough
apart to keep the rubbers in their place
and shutting them with all the force
possible. After this put the forefnger
In the mouth and rub it against the
cheek, pressing it outward in every
way, reaching as far back as it is pos
sible. 1t is said that by regularly fol-
lowing these simple exercises daily the
face may be kept rounded and firm in
It's outlines, AID that even old and re-
laxed muscles may be greatly strength
ened and improved.-N. Y. Tribune.

FLYING MACHINES.


Among Other Things They Would Open
Up Vast Tracts Of Land to Usefulness.
Samuel Cabot, manufacturing
chemist Of Boston, is interested in fly.
ing machines. At present he .s trying
to discover the best form of aerial
screw-one which will give the great
est push with the least amount OF
power. In an interview with re-
porter Of the Boston Traveller. he said:
1.-TWO questions have been frequently
asked, which perhaps it will be worth
while to answer now, and as part of
my reply viii be in the form of a
prophecy, this 'credo' may be worth
the trouble of preservation to compare
with the Developments of the future.
What important service can fight in
air serve? Maxim, Langley and all
who have studied the subject thor.
oughly, agree that the speed of aeria-
ton will greatly exceed that of any
terrestrial locomotion. From this fol.
lows an entire economic change in the
direction of rendering immense tracts
of comparatively worthless territory
at distances Of twenty to forty miles
from cities much more available.
There would also result the RELOCATING
of city property in large measure to
business and storage purposes. This
would to a large extent accomplish
what Henry George signs for, but
would do it by means which do not in
volve any wrong to the land owner by
the wage Garner. With flying navies,
capable of carrying unseen at night
large quantities of explosives to the
center of a city, war would become so
destructive that it would be soon sup
planted by arbitration as a matter of
common sense and self-preservation.
Arbitration once established, an in
ternational police system, controlling
n1tions as we do individuals, and en-
forcing the DEGREES Of boards of arbi-
tration, would be enormously assisted
by this power of rapid and, if neces-
sary. destructive patrolling. Immense
areas of country, now well nigh i'm
penetrable, would be open to useful
ness Large sources Of wealth would
thus be added to tho civilized world,
and would result in the amelioration
of the condition Of the savages of such
regions as central Africa. We should
have to give up selfish legislation and
restriction upon the commerce of other
nations, and be obliged perforce to
stand on broader heritage than that
Of nation or Of zone.'"

The third Sunday in Advent, 1851.
when every church bell announced the
death of the prince consort, will never
be forgotten by those who felt the

To remove grease spots from books

from linen put good deal of soda into

the process as often as necessary.
To remove paint spots rub with
sponge dipped in benzine from the Cir
