Shrinking WOODEN Goods.

Atwood cloth for dresses or any
other purpose of clothing should be
shrunk before it is made up. The
easiest way to shrink it is to lay cot
ton cloths wrung out in cold water be-
tween the folds of the wool cloth, and
roll the whole tightly. Leave it in a
cool place over night, aud in the morn
ing take out the damp cotton and
press the wool cloth dry on the wrong

THE PIPE FACE.
Close Observers VIII Notice 1t In Old
Smokers.


Smokers.
The constant habit of smoking pipes
has a perceptible effect upon the face.
The pressure of the lips to hold the
pipe in position increases their curva-
ture around the stem and the muscles
become more rigid here than In other
parts. Thus, says Tit-Bits, the lips at
certain point become stronger. and
the pipe is unconsciously held in the
same habitual position. After long
continuation Of the habit small cir
cular wrinkles form parallel with the
curvature Of the lips around the stem.
These are crossed by finer lines, caus-
ed by the pressure of the lips to retain
tho stem In position. In the case of old
men who have smoked a pipe for years,
the effect upon the lips Is very marked
not only altering the form OF the lips
but OF one entire side Of the face, caus-
ing the wrinkles that ere the effect
of age to deepen, and, instead of fol-
lowing the natural course OF facial
wrinkles, to change their course SO as
to radiate from the part Of the mouth
where the pipe is habitually carried.
Furthermore, one or both lips often
protrude, just like the lips Of people
who have sucked their thumbs when
children. The effects Of pipe smoking
upon the teeth are considerable. At
the point where the smoker usually
holds the stem between his teeth the
latter becomes much worn.

From He Press, Milroy, Ind.
One of the first to offer their services for
the country in the Civil War was A. Il. Self
ton, OF Milroy, Rush Co., Ind. He made o
good record. The life of every soldier is a
hard one, and Mr.. Sefton's case was no OK
ception. ''We were in Tennessee, penned
in on all sides. Our rations were very
scarce" said he, land we had begun to go
on quarter allowance, and as the rain was
not enough to replenish the wells or streams,
our canteens went empty. We were hur-
ried on, and the only way to quench our
thirst was to so down on our hands and
knees and drink from the hoof tracks made
by the horses.
