1t May Be the Result of Self-Neglect
Improper Food and Lack of

The good housewife keeps her rooms

yet she complacently goes about with
skin impregnated with dust and mi
crobes, and accepts sallowness, pimples
and premature wrinkles as matter of

1t is Martha, careful and troubled

turely. She awakens one day-hap-
PLY, if it be not too late-to the fact
that the beauty once hers is thing of
the past.
Young in heart and spirit, she gazes
with thrill of pain at the faded face
which confronts her in the too candid
mirror-the face that must evermore
represent her to the world. 1t is a mis-
representation, she feels, as she turns
half bitterly, all sorrowful from the I'M
compromising glass. 1t is mask-a
torturing lie. She will tear it from he-
and show to the world its falsity. She
is yet young; she loves life, music and
good cheer. She loves to be loved. She
must be. She cannot bear the pain of
neglect or Indifference. The world can
not see her heart; few care about the
treasures of her mind. 1t is her per-
sonal appearance that counts. She
must find the jewel she has let fall from
her careless grasp. If common sense
and persistence are hers, she may yet
go long way back to pristine fresh
ness and youthfulness.
Five steps are necessary: Fresh air,
wholesome diet, rational exercise, suf-
fcient rest and daily baths.-Ledger

Frogs.

Minneapolis has become the largest
primary frog market in the world. The
total receipts of frogs and frog legs in
the city for the current year will be
somewhat in excess of 200, 900 dozen,
which means that 100000 croallers
b We paid the extreme penalty. The
| .5iness has reached such proportions
lat an army of men now depend upon
frog catching throughout the state for
a livelihood. 1t is said by frog con-
noisseurs that the Minnesota article is
vastly superior to other brands in
points of flavor, and for that reason
eastern and southern epicures have a
great preference for it. One large
firm handles the business exclusively.
While the receipts from the business
did not exceed $1,000 five years ago,
they will run close to SIS, 900 now.
Swell restaurants in New York, Chi
cago, Cincinnati and other cities have
standing orders for so many dozen per
daV.

Vegetable Outlets.

These are made of half mashed pota-
toes and half equal parts of carrots,
parsnips, turnips and onions. These
must all be cooked, and onions cut fine
and Drowned in a little butter. The
other vegetables must also be chopped
fine after they are boiled, and all mixed
with the mashed potatoes while they
are hot. Season lightly with salt and
pepper, and for every pint of the mix
ture add heaping tablespoonful of
chopped parsley. Set away until cold,
and then form into outlets, dip in beat

have been permanent disgrace. There
was one chance out of hundred, per-
haps, that the marksman might miss.
He decided to take the chance. and so
permitted the volunteer eXecutioner to
take deliberate aim and fire at him
from a distance of half dozen PAGES.
An instant later he fell dead; the bullet
had passed through his brain.
in some tribes of Indians it used to
be the rule that a sorcerer who failed
three times must pay the penalty of
death. That regulation has been re-
markably widespread among savages.
/ understand it to have been accepted as
far south as Patagonia on this con-
tiHent, and undoubtedly it survives to
this day in parts of Africa and else
where. But there was an ingenious
magician of my acquaintance who saved
himself from this fate by little device
of his contriving. Being permitted to
furnish the bullet by which he was to
be shot, he made one in mold in which
a piece of paper was inserted in such a
manner that the ball was cast in two
hemispheres. These he put together,
causing them to hold by rubbing the
edges with his knife-blade. In this way
at the same time the deception was con-
cealed. On being fired from the gun,
the bullet 1iew in halves, which, being of
such shape, scattered and left the man
untouched. By this means he escaped
on several occasions the penalty which
ought to befal the wizard who is a

failure. Finally, however, he was found
out and executed.
Il once saw an interesting trick per-
formed inside of ceremonial wigwam.
There was lot of dancing and mum
merry, in the midst of which a woman
came forward and struck the ground
in the middle of the lodge. Then mys-
terry man took his turn and began
scratching with stick on a spot where
the woman had struck. In minute or
two were exposed to view the leaves of
a full-grown wild turnip. The vegetable
was dug up and thrown among the spec
tators, to show that there was no de-
ception and to quell the appetite of the
hungry public. Scratching some more
with his stick, the magician produced
several more turnips-two or three
dozen of them. 1t was really wonder
full. 1 should have been more aston
ished, however, if, being an initiated
member of the secret society, l had not
been present in the morning and seen
the woman bury the turnips.
''In the Menomoni tribe to-day there
is juggler of great reputation. One
of his best tricks is done with bears
claw and a small dish-shaped pocket
mirror. He takes the mirror in one
hand and the bears claw in the other.
Then, swaying his body from side to
side and keeping up monotonous chant
ing, he brings the claw nearer to the
mirror, until finally there is contact
between the two and the claw stands
upon it's point upright on the mirror.
Presently, by sudden movement, the
glass is turned upside down, and the
claw still remains attached to it by the
point. 1t is quite surprising, but par
