salt Baths All the Year.
A warm eoit bath once a month IN WIN
ter and once q week through the sum-.
mer Is an excellent invigorator for chill
dren. It can be easily obtained BY put
ting a handful OF salt TO every gallon Of
water In che. bath. After the daily bath,
which should be taken just after rising
or before retiring, O thorough rubbing
shcslld be given the child, then the skin
lightly powdered With orris root powder,
the latter as preventive against possible
cold catching.
Cleaning Chamofs Skin.
To clean channels skin wash In warm
suds, rinse in water same temperature.
and while drying stretch and rub them.
This same rule applies to the washing OF
white nannels, except In place Of rdebing
they should soak n half hour or more IN
luke warm suds: squeeze them, wiring and
rinse Immediately IL water same temper
ature; put through wrlnger. shake and
dry as soon as poxsible, and press when
quite dry. Leaving fannels damp shrinks
them irremediably.
Caviar and snrdines ON Toast.
Caviar Is very appetizing for lunch or
after soup. When you buy it ask fo- the
Russian caviar. Put on plate, tarrish
with lemon, cut in quarters. Serve with
square pieces Of toast. sardInes on
toast are also very much liked. After re-
moving the bones lay the sardines on
buttered toast Hard boiled eggs with
cream sauce poured over them is an easily
prepared dish--also served cold with may
onnaise TO which you have added enc
tablespoonful OF French mustard.

neglect their health even after they must
realize that they are marching under the
banner of death.
The great majority of diseases have their
inception In indigestion, biliousuess and
impure blood. Among these diseases are

follows: Samuel Wilson, commonly
called Z ncle Sam was a Govern

foundered vi hin 81 ght Of polt-gone

were sent to report up'n the cause OF
the disaster and the prospect of rails
ing the goods. One Of these represent
ID the insurance brokers, who had
instituted the inves' iyatior, and the
other the captain and owners of the
vessel.
The brokers' man touched bottom
first, and found himself Oh bed OF
white sand. He was fortunate enough
almost Immediately to discover the
wreck. and at once climbed the crags
upon which the vessel rested. Inves-
tigation showed him that there had
been foul play, for an augerhole was
plainly visible in the hull of the
ship.
He had turned to point out his dis
covery to the other diver, who was
now by his side, when he felt himself
suddenly clutched by the waist and
dragged down upon the sand. Here
his assailant murderously attempted
to break the glass Of his helmet, but
the assailed man fought desperately
for his life.

swooned, and in this condition the
other man prepared to leave him, cut
off from communication with with tt e

be drawn up, but as he began to
ascend the apparentlys wooning man
sprang to his feet and dutched the
rising mans legs with firm grip,

together.
Then, indeed, the ready witted
diver tainted IN earnest, and before
he regained consciousness his enemy
had escaped and, and when captured
was attempting TO leave the country.
At the trial he explained the reason OF
