The husband nudged the hand
some woman, and there the incident
closed.
Why will women persist in stepping
on cars in the direction contrary TO
that i'm which they are moving? Why
are they so insensible TO a law OF ma
ture known to every boOklcss urchin
of the street? These questions were
asked Of a distinguished woman ply
stefan and educator. She answered
that the reason was complex. When a
woman attempts to leave a car before
IL is stopped. she does so out Of i'm
patience at having passed the street
crossing where she desired IN alight.
and a woman of such Impotence is
likely to step off i'm the direction Of the
crossing. which lands her heels where
her toes should be. and then the back
Of her head on the pavement.

edge Of inertia is concerned added the
physician. her inaptitude reminds me
Of a umorou accident ! witnessed one
day in Washington while travelling in
a street car from the capital to the

was trying to explain to the other how
force produced motion, which was in
ertia. and how force stopped motion,
which was likewise inertia. But this
dubious philosophical explanation was
altogether too profound for the I'M
tutored one. and he accused his com
rade of an excess OF book learning.
Just then the car. which was going at
a lively gait, swung around a corner,
and the two colored men, who stood at
the edge Of the step, were impelled
d~iagonally into the street. The car was
stopped for them, and as they came

WAY THEY GET HURT.
Women Ignorant Of the Philosophy q
Jumping.

Hey there, Don't jumpt'
The warning came too late. Before
the Wabash avenue Eripman had
brought his wabbIinc train Of street
cars to a standstill. a needless woman
was spraWlinE on her back. The fe-
male passengers who Witnessed the
catastrophe shricked. while the con-
ductor groaned n uttered several
words that are not according to Hoyle
in circumspect society.
The victim Of the occasion was more
frightened than hurt. She was neither
tall nor heavy, and for these reasons
escaped the Erayer possibilities Of her
contempt for the law of inertia. Hur-
riedly ~scramblinE to her feet. she
smoothed out the folds Of her diaphau-
Gus muslin dress and Elared at the

MUD o REMOVING SuNeuRN
Suggestion to Girls Who Return with
Tan.

Tan.
The ~up-to-date Chicago girl who
brings a lovely ease Of tan" back
from the COUNTRY with her is trying a
rather peculiar remedy for the injured
complexion this summer. Everyone
wants To reach the city with the sun
burned checks and throat which tell
of outdoor and vacation Joys and iol-
llhcation. hut nobody wants the said
checks and throat to remain so deeply
Cniortd long. So complexion. tan.
freckle and sunburu lotions are always
immensely popular in the summer time
and the summer girl tries them by the
hundred.
The newest cosmetic on her list is
mud-just plain. common, ordinary
mud.
So II you meet a girl returning from
the nciEhhorhoci of The nearest park
very early some bright morning and
carefully carrying 4 mysterious-looking
care board box or a bottle you may
know her errand and the contents Of
the cherished receptacle. Clay-like mud
is the best for whitening the hands
and complexion and she has been to
the park To procure some mud from
the shores OF the artificial lake. Mere
ly vet earth or sand from the lake
beaches or back yard will not do half
so well.
The reasons for the bleaching effects
OF mud are not nearly SO well known
or authentic as the cures IL u~ndoubted-
ly effects. In many parts OF Canada
n OF the Western states where the
hot sun and the dry winds combine TO
parch and discolor delicate compilations
The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1898-09-04

the country girls know very well what
VIII maxi and keep them fresh and
fair again. They are fond Of plaster
ing their faces, hands and threats night
and morning, sometimes leaving the
unpleasant-looking but efficacious plas-
ter on all night in aggravated cases,
with the mud from the creek or river
beds. For the kind Of sunburn which
b~listers. peels off and makes itself gen.
orally unpleasant there is nothing bet
ter than this homely remedy. And the
city girl has somehow or other acquir-
ed this knowledge, as new-old as the
remedy itself, from her rural sister.
To do its beautifying work best the
mud should be applied over a skin
newly washed in soar and warm wa
ter. IL presumably acts by drawing
out Of the epidermis all the infiamma-
ton and V which has caused the
unpleasant redness and by bleaching
the darkness out of the badly tanned
complexion. 1t does this just as hunt
ers and woodsmen in general know
that It will draw the poison out of in
sect or even a bites IL applied
quickly and copiously and changed Oft
en-. Animals know this, too, as witness
the speed and directness with which a
bitten dog or horse reared in the
country will frequently make for the
nearest stream when bitten by a pois-
onous reptile. Here, half buried in the
sticky mud of the shores, the nature
wise animal will remain until instinct
tells him that the poison has been all
removed.
The country girl who believes in mud
as a complexion beautifieT uses ii both
as a preventive and remedial agent.
The city girl, in all probability, will
employ il only in the last-named ca
pacity. But if she tries it once, plas-
tering her face, hands and throat thick
~ with it at night and allowing it to
remain on the skin despite the unpleas-
antness of the resultant feeling and
appearance until the morning, she will
be more than rewarded when the hor-
rid looking stuff is washed off with
warm water and soap by the renewed
and charming freshness and fairness of
her erstwhile ~sun-spoiled complexion.
