An Electric Lighter.

The accompanying illustration shows
an electric cigar lighter that has just
been put on the market The device con-
sists of a dry battery. spark coil, a
torch and spring contact points be-
tween which the torch slides. The cir
cult IS broken in four places, SO that
there is little or no danger of the bat
terfes being short-circuited and run
down when the lighter is not in use
The torch contains an asbestos-packed
wick which will last Indefinitely The
torch handle is hollow and about once a
spoonful of gasoline or spirits is
poured in to moisten the wick. This is
the only attention the lighter requires.
as the batteries are expected to last at
least a year with ordinary use. The
light is obtained by simply pulling the
torch from its sheath, which breaks the
circuit and causes a spark that lights
the wick. The light is extinguished by
replacing the torch in its sheath. The
cut shows a lighter made in the form
of an upright piano. The case is Of
highly polished wood and the metal
trimmings are nickel-piated. This
makes a very attractive lighter for a
cigar store. The dimensions Of the case
are nine and half inches high, ten
inches long and six inches wide. An
,ther form of the lighter is made for
attachment to wal! in clubs. hotels

Harmless Cosmetic.

1t has been discovered that ladies
who wish to heighten their complex
ions need no longer use paints and un-
guents that are Injurious to the skin.
Blackberry or strawberry juice rubbed
slightly on the cheeks and then washed
off with milk gives beautiful tint. -
THE garden beet is also an excellent
cosmetic. The beet is cut and the juice
is applied gently with camers-hair
brush" Country ladies will thus have
an advantage over those of town. There
will be no necessity to apply to any
Nine. Rachel. but they will do their
painting on the premises. Such aids to
beauty can hardly be called artificial.
1t is possible, however, they may be-
come dangerous in the bee season. The
enamored swain will think it only ma
tural that that persistent insect should
be attracted by such fower-like beauty.
but the lady will know better.

Diving From a Height.

In diving from a height, say of six
feet, throw the heels we'll up, keep the
legs straight and close together, and
bring the hands forward and in front
of and above the head. The position
required is one everybody takes nat
urally in first attempting to swim. The
hands act as the prov Of ship, sfor
they cut the water. They should,
therefore, always be turned just as you
strike the surface. This will prevent
You going deep and will also give an
impetus to carry you through the water.
A good diver can dive from height of
forty to fifty feet and not go a yard
below the surface, whereas the frequent
accidents along our coasts show that
carelessness in springing from pier
into a shallow water frequently results
in broken neck.

low. Like most cripples, his mind is
precocious. The bicycling craze left
him in body more hopeless and help
less than ever. A neighboring bicycle
manufacturer agreed to make a wheel
which the boy could ride. and he did so.
His one hand guides the handle bar
and bars Of steel lead up from the
pedals to the short stumps which he
has known as legs. Strange to say, he
experienced very little trouble in bal
ancing the machine. He began riding
about four weeks ago, and after three
or four hours instruction and practice
he made half mile on track in less
than three minutes. He can now do a
mile in less than five minutes, and ex-
poets to reduce this time to four
minutes. He has already made a half
mile in I'm. los. He has learned to dis
mount, and can handle his wheel readi-
ly and without assistance. He has to
be assisted. though, when he mounts
but expects soon to be able to do so
alone. De Kalb seems to have more
than her share of bicycle riding Grip
pies. A year ago one of the young
women of the town had leg taken off
by the cars. She now rides a bicycle
very creditably, it is said.
