To Remove Tan and Freckles.

The juice Of cucumbers pressed out
with a lemon-squeezer is one of the
most effective and simple remedies
known for removing sunburn.
For removing freckles take one cup
Of milk and two spoonfuls of grated
horseradish, and let it stand for one
hour; then strain and battle the face
and hands in it.
A half pint of rosewater and one
spoonful Of lemon juice is considered
excellent for bathing the face in to re-
move tan.
A complexion wash, which is very
highly recommended and removes
freckles, is made Of quarter pound
of oatmeal soap, shaved fine into one
quart Of soft, boiling water; stir until
it is smooth and cool; then add a half
pint spirits of wine and quarter ounce
Of oil Of rosemary.

ly of pewter, brass or iron, circular or
oval in shape, and occasionally triangu-
lar, and about two or three inches in
diameter, with a projecting nose an
inch OF two long. When in use they
were filled with grease made from odds
and ends of fat in household use, and
sometimes little tallow. A wick, or
more often piece of twisted rag, was
placed so the lighted end could hang
over the nose. A handled hook was
sometimes attached, with which to
clean out the grease. These lamps were
called Brown Bettys,' 'Kials' or
"Crimseys." A Phebe lamp resembled
Betty lamp, but had shallow cup
underneath to catch the drifting
grease.
The earliest known candle was the
rush light; the soaking, peeling, and
dipping of the rushes into grease was
the first method of the candle-making
industry. The next invention was the
dipping of the wicks, made of loosely
twisted cotton yarn, into pots Of hot
taliow.
The yarn was cut into the desired
length and suspended by the upper
loop on sticks. These sticks were ar
ranged gridiron fashion across two
beams, whose ends rested on carpenters
horses; each stick containing several
candle wicks, was dipped into great

That property has responsibilities to
organized society, as well as rights to
be protected by it, is fact that seems
often to be overlooked by the owners
Of large wealth. In the long fun the
rights Of property cannot remain secure
If the responsibility that goes with its
ownership is ignored. Wealth demands
at all times, and no society is civilized
that does not afford such protection.
But what shall be said of the wealthy
corporate interests that insist to the let
ter upon the rights which law confers
upon property, even to the ordering out
Of troops in their behalf, and then cool
ly shift disproportionate share Of the
burden of maintaining the government
from which they claim those rights up
on the shoulders of other and proba bly,
poorer members of the community? A
great deal is heard in these days about
attacks on the rights of property, and
it is indeed unfortunate that the wild
and revolutionary talk of certain
class of agitators should find even as
much response as it does among part
Of the population. But let wealth re-
member the duties it owes to society
and the dangers that menace it's rights
will vanish and the power of the revo-
lutionary agitator will cease. Let hon
est wealth array itself on the side Of
the public and honest government
when INSCRIPTIONS wealth is trying to
plumber the public. In short, let wealth
remember the responsibilities which it
owes to society, and the rights which it
claims will be accorded without ques-
ton.

Plans for an aerial ship have been
prepared by E. D. loops, Of Indianap-

be 125 feet long, with fourteen state
rooms. Hot air will heat the ship and
initiate the balloons. Propellers will be
used when it is necessary to drive
against the wind. Parachutes will be
carried to be used as life preservers.
Made Of aluminium, the ship will weigh
5000 pounds, but each balloon will
have a buoyancy Of 10000 pounds.

OF late the telephone has been util-
lied to considerable extent in legal
proceedings. Afidavits have been
sworn to, Acknowledgements have been
taken, and in one case at least testi-
mony has been received by telephone.
This last innovation must be credited
to Fort Scott, Kas., where two wit
ness men, were permitted to give evil
dence in this manner, the attorneys
STIMULATING that no objection should be
taken to this unusual proceeding An
other case that has attracted unusual
attention is reported from New York,
where an affidavit which had been tele-
phoned from Cincinnati and acknowl-
edged over the wire was accepted in
the Supreme Court as sufficient ground
for the issuance of an attachment In
volving considerable sum of money.
The proceedings were unusual and in
teresting. The facts were telephoned
from Cincinnati over long-distance
telephone line, an affidavit was pre-
red at the New York end of the line
and read to the complainant, who was
standing at the telephone in Cincinnati,
where in the presence of witnesses he
made the required acknowledgment.
1t was still necessary to have some one
in New York talk with the complainant
and positively identify his voice. This
was done, the papers were filed and
the attachment issued. The interested
parties announced that several days
delay had been avoided by utilizing the
telephone, and by this prompt action it
was possible to have judgment salts
fed which it might have been difficult
otherwise to accomplish. Many inn
portant transactions have hinged upon
telephone messages, and the courts
have long since recognized their adj
instability as evidence unuer proper re-
strictions.
