trust will bring them good luck.
'sOf course" said the society tattooer,
when asked to tell something about his
work, Il never divulge the names OF
my patrons. I make that rule, even
when I know the women would not OBJ
ject.
'In England l had one patron, a It'll
ed lady, who came to me first to have
a simple design tattooed upon one
arm. She was so pleased with the eff
feet that she came back almost a dozen
times, and now her arms are almost
filled with ingenious and, to her, sig
nificant tattooings.
81 remember a young officer whose
arm l tattooed with a portrait of his
sweetheart shortly before he went away
to the war. The portrait now is, with
him, molding to dust in a grave near
Santiago.
1.-THE favorite place for the tattoo
ing? Well, the ladies generally have
the design on the arm, though l know
of many who have been tattooed on
the ankle. A good many married Ia
dies are fond Of having the inscription
engraved ON their wedding ring tat
tooed on the finger underneath the
ring. Many of them, too, ask to have
bracelets tattooed on their arms. A
oolored butterfly is also a great favor
tie. I am able to tattoo in ten differ
ent colors. What an artist can do on
canvas l will undertake to reproduce
on the skin.
''The method is quite painless. The
electrical tattooing machine is fitted
with needles whose fineness will be ap-
preciated b. ladies when l say that
they are 'sixteens. Therefore a tiny
puncture from such a needle could not
be felt unless the skin is abnormally
sensitive.
First Of all, I wash the arm, or
whatever part of the body is to be tat
tooed, with an antiseptic lotion, which
renders the treatment perfectly safe.
Then the outline is drawn with one
needle, and this traverses the skin at
the rate Of 70 punctures per second.
After this is finished l put in the shaft
as many needles as are required for
the shading, sometimes using as many
as so. If the design is to be a colored
one, different needles are used for the
different colors. The same needles are
never used twice, each customer having
an entirely new set of needles.
Engaged couples very often come to
have each others initials done on their
arms. Their mutual interest in the
process as tried on each others arms
is very funny. The worst of it is that
when they quarrel both parties descend
upon me to have the initials erased.
This is impossible, but to overcome the
difficulty l trace heavy design over
them, and this hides the initials.
81 can also tattoo a natural tint Of
pink upon the cheeks Of ladies. 1t Is
a very delicate and a very expensive
process.
q once had a secret society come to
me. There were So members, and each
had the secret sign of the society tat
tooed on his arm. They wanted to en-
roll me as a member so that the sign
might be safe, but I politely declined,

This highly refined, pure cream of tartar--the
product of the heathful grape-is the material from
which pure and heafhful baking powder must be
made. More expensive of course, than other ingre-
dents frequently used but being healthul itself adds
healthfness the food instead of degrading it as do
the baking powders that degraded in quality to

The lawlessness IN Louisiana,
Georgia and Kentucky is calling
out emphatic protests from leading
papers in the South. They at first
excused the lynchlng of brutal
negroes, but it became plain that
mobs had killed innocent colored
men and whites who had every
right of protection of the law.
Whole communities abandoned the
use Of courts of justice and applied
the rope or shot gun to remedy
any real or supposed wrongs.
Mob rule became the established
and recognized authority. The
South begins to realize that 1t
must stop these uncivilizod pro.
ceedings.

their fields of grain and meadows.
Rye is mostly all cut. There was a
good yield of it where an effort was
made to grow it.
Green corn is purchsable. 1t is SELL
ing from eight to to ten cents per
dozen ears. New potatoes are
plentiful. Eggs still scarce.
Wheat is being cut in several To-
cahties in the county. The grain in
some places is ripper than in others.
The hot sun of the past few days has
hastened the ripening of the head.
The yield is good. Wheat from the
Dakotas is expected to reach the
-four mills by Aug. Is, and that from
county farms little later,
No. Northern has fallen two cents
since the last quotation 1t is most
ly'an bought up.
New cabbage is on the market.
The heads are we'll formed solid.

tendency to rise in price. Butchers
