An interesting instance of the applica-
ton, on large scale, of the principle
that black eolored substances readily
absorb the heat of the sun, is mentioned
by r. L. Fulton. The toll-road from
Truckee to Lake Tahoe, is closed early
every winter by the immense snowfall,
which in places buries the road to a
depth of 20 or 30 feet. At the beginning
of spring the owner of the line has
black dirt scattered along snow where
the hidden made so thick as completely to
cut off road runs. The layer of dirt is not
the sunlight from the snow. The effect
is described as wonderful. In a short
time long depression is formed in the
snow, and days before the ground is
clear on either side the stages are run
ning on bare ground"

May Announcement,

THE WELL INFORMED, WHO
4 believe in getting the sweets of life
as they journey along this rocky path
way Of our existence, know full well
that the inner man must be well provi-
ded for, or life will be dismal failure.
They know that the stomach is the
thermometer, as it were, of our daily life,
whenlit is we'll nourished with good and
wholesome foods, we enjoy life. things
look prosperous, and we feel happy, on
the contrary, when not well furnished,
everything seems dismal and dark. Our
friends think there is something the
matter with US, and there is, we are not
complying with the laws Of nature.
Now the logical conclusion of this is,
that we should always provide ourselves
with the best the market affords.

twants to Bo an Actress.

Ethel l.. wants to be an actress. She
finds it necessary to earn her own liv-
ing and be independent, and thinks
this would suit her exactly. She has
done a bit of amateur work, and has
always been highly complimented. Be
sides. she has always had great de-
sire for this sort Of life. She wants
advice as to taking up the stage as a
profession. Answer-If you are able
and willing to work harder than any
common drudge, to bear abuse, criti-
cism, injustice, ridicule and years Of
weary waiting, If you can face the
chances Of failure with one point in
one hundred in luck for you and with
everything seemingly against you, try
to at yourself for an actress. Ninety
Ave out of every hundred of them fail,
and a fair percentage of the remainder
make only a sort Of halfway success
Of it. The few stars are only the few
out of the many who achieve anything
worth speaking Of. The country is full
of stage struck young women who are
willing to pay goodly sums for the priv
ilege of appearing in minor parts. This
being the case, it is easy to see how
girls with no money and moderate
amount Of talent may have rather dis

Points OF Etiquette.

Miss Lillian asks: II. Should lady
extend her hand to gentleman when
they are introduced, or should she walt
for him to extend his hand? Also, Is II
proper for people to- shake hands when
they are introduced? 2. What should
a lady say to her partner when, atter
the dance, he says: L am very much
obliged? 8. What colors are most be-
coming to a brunette? 4. How should
a girl Of 16 wear her hair?" Answer
l. Handshaking when people are IN
troduced depends upon circumstances
and localities. In some places 1t Is
not at all the custom; in others every
body does it. 1t only remains to con-
form to the popular idea on the sub
ject. 1t may be said, however. that
ladies and young persons should never
make the first advances in such cases.
Indeed, some excellent authorities do
not approve of handshaking at intro
auctions at all, therefore one is not
likely to go wrong if one refrains from
this form of greeting. 2. After the
dance, when your partner says Il am
much obliged" you may answer,
Don't mention it," or at was very
enjoyable" or, If the music was good,
say, with such band, dancing is
great pleasure" Try to think of
agreeable and appropriate things that
will suggest remarks of any sort ex-

turns gray and falls out so that she Is
lfkely to become bald. She has tried
a great many things without satisfac-
tory results, and therefore writes for
advice. Answer-There are very many
young persons nowadays whose tair
turns gray without apparent reason.
There seems to be no remedy for it.,
as 1t is said to be constitutional. AS
to the hair falling out, that may be par
TALLY remedied by the use Of strong
sulphur water either to battle the head
or as hair wash and lotion. In one Uase
the hair was saturated with strong sui
phur water, and kept wet for about
twelve hours, then washed clean and
dried. This was repeated twice every
week with most remarkable success.
