COLD WATER AND p1uMpNEss,

It is more than probable that the
women who long most earnestly for q

less than twice q day, and if faithfully
adhered to will be found wonderful

morning and at night draw large
basin OF cold water and with one hand
dash it lightly and rapidly over the

desirable to strengthen and improve.

no soap, and do not attempt to make o
bath Of it; massage with the hand, and
sndeavor to draw the blood to the

How TWO GIRLS MADE MONEY,

ga country girl who is determined
to go to Paris to study. art is laying
aside for this purpose each dollar she
nas earned" writes Ruth Ashmore in
an article on "The Girl III the Coun.
try" in the Ladies' Home Journal.
"She found that there vasno one else
in the village who could make as good
bread and biscuit as she; that those
who had TO buy complained Of the
baker, bread. She made no effort at
sending her bread to woman's ex.
change, as she knew that such places
were always overstocked, but che went
through her own town--a very small
one--and asked for orders. She is
making money because there has never
been sad loaf of bread or heavy
biscuit sent out from her kitchen. She
will supply neighbor with hot bis
cults at tea time. and she has learned
to make dainty rusk, especially for in.
valids, who enjoy these light, sweet
dainties. Fer prices are reasonable.
Another girl, ambitious to gain
something, got her father to let her
have g bit of ground. and to give her
the money that he would otherwise
have bestowed upon her for wedding
dress. With this she was able to buy
plants and to hire a boy to help her,
and during the summer. while the
boarding houses around demanded
them, she served the freshest OF. rad.
ishes. the crispest of lettuce, the ear.
LEST corn and the largest tomatoes.
and she SAYS now that she will double
the size OF her garden next summer. "

Big Mountain Slide.

One of the longest mountain fumes
yet constructed in this country will
soon be completed IN the Adirondacks.
1t is for the purpose of tapping the
rich and hitherto inaccessible spruce
forest on this tall peak commonly
known as "Old Whiteface." This
mountain lies just north Of Lake
Placid, and is more than 5000 feet
high. SO steep is tho side Of "Old
Whitefacs" that until the present
reason no llmberman has attempted
to cut timber there. A wood pulp
company OF Ausable Forks decide to
begin operations on large scale.
Several hundred men are now EN-.
ployed making slide two and halt
miles long from the mountain side to
the Ausable River, below the big falls
in Wilmington Notch. This slide, or
Aume, is three feet wide and threefeet
deep, and is constructed of two-inch
plank supported on wooden trestle
which in some places is nearly 100 feet
high. Several ravines of great depth
are thus spanned. The outlet of the
hume is fifty feet above the high water
mark Of the Ausable River, and at a
place where the river is very deep.
A current of water is passed through
the aume by diverting Whiteface
Brook from its natural channel, and
the incline of the fume gives the flow.
ing water an irresistible imnetus.
Sticks of spruce timber measuring
about eighteen inches in diameter are
put in all along the line for a mile
down the mountain. A heavy stick
started at or near the head of the
fume will reach the river in seven and
one half minutes. Many Adirondack
tourists who have enjoyed the climb

picturesque features of the North
