WHICH ARE YOU?

The woman who losses her head and
steps on her tee as she walks is a
coGuette. She tiiCes too much with
love, and is just the woman to miss
good husband and be sorry ever
after.
The quiet man Will never be happy
with the woman WHO digs her heels
into the pavement and scu1r:es along
as if she were running race. She is
businesslke and most likely the wom-
to succeed in trade affairs, but her
manner is one of those simple things
that worry the quiet man to death.
The girl who cannot walk with out
skipping is enc of those wild, glad
Sushers who, when she has nothing
else to rave over, raves With joy be-
cause it is Sunday or Monday, or Tues
day, or whatever the Gay Of the week
happens to be; she is equally depressed,
and lives in a see-saw atmosphere of
exultation OR despair.

Human Hair Statistics.

It is curious fact that red-hair ed
people are far less apt to go bald than
those with other colcred hair. The
average crop on the head of red-haired
persons is only $4,000 hairs. Ordinary
dark hair is far finer, and over three
dark hairs take up the space of one
red one; 100000 is about the average.
But fair-haired people are still better
off; 4o,ooo to 100000 is quite a COM
mon number of hairs on the scalp OF
a fair-haired man or woman. A Curl
Gus calculation has been made to the
effect that the hairs On the head of
a fair-haired person, if they could be
plated together, would sustain a
weight of something like 80 tons,
equaling that of 500 people.

An Abundant s.e,aa.


Aluminium is the most abundant
metal in the world. It enters moro
or less into the formation Of almost
every kind of soil on the globe, while
clay of different kinds contains from
30 per cent to 40 per cent of it. This
metal. which, singular to say. was I'M
discovered seventy years ago, Is the
Hghtest known. 1t is white and does
not tarnish on being exposed to the
air. When first produced it is soft,
but after hammering becomes as hard
as the softer kinds Of iron. >One-third
OF the total product of the world is
American. the rest being divided be-
tween France. Switzerland and Great
Britain. 1t has been called the metal
of the future, and the principal OBJ
stacle to its being the metal OF the
present is it's somewhat high price.
This has been greatly reduced of late
years, but the great desideratum-a
cheap method of obtaining the metal
directly from the clay-las not yet
been attained. If the metal were to
become cheap. the existing, age. of steel
would be succeeded by an age of alu-
mtnium.

THO Heat OF the Sun.

THO Heat OF the Sun.
1t is impossible except by illustra-
ton and comparison to grasp the idea
of the heat Of the sun. According to
calculation, based upon the energy OF
the suns rays on the earth, the tenn
perature at it's surface is computed rs
about $4,000 degrees Fahrenheit No
artificial temperature of this degree
can be created by any known means.
Efforts have been made to collect and
utilize the tremendous heat power IF
the sun, but cloudiress, mist and dark
ness have prevented anything like
marked success. At the Colum bian
exposition an apparatus wag shown
consisting of reflector and proper at
tachments, which utilized thu. heat Of
the sun to such an effect thst a two
horsepower engine was run by it. IT
is proposed to try experimenting with
refectors where the sky is tree OF
clcudiness and the sun shines almost
uninterruptedly nearly every day In
the year.

DON'T.

Don't get into the habit of talking
to yourself if you are easily bored.
Don't think because you can fool
some people that others can't fool
you.
Don't provide yourself with a wife
and expect her to provide you with a
home.
Don't take worry with you on your
travels; you will find it on tap every
where.
Don't think a man appreciates a
cyclone because he is carried away
with it.
Don't think your mi1kman has pedi-
greed cows because he supplies you
with blue milk.
Don't get the idea into your head
that with women on juries there would
be fewer Ilisagreements.
Don't attempt to train up your chill
dren in the way they should go unless
you are going that way yourself
