In the design the carbon, instead Of

How Transparent Paper Is Made.

How Transparent Paper Is Made.
The making of high-class trans
parent paper has become a fine art,
especially in Germany, and experts ad-,
nit that the most translucent of blues
will always be that of Berlin. For
purple, madder purple is found to be
the most reliable, but possesses little
gloss. Luminous effects are obtainable
with the assistance of aniline colors,
these being, however, only Of little
permanence in transparencles. Light
transparent green is hardly available.
Recourse has to be taken to mixing
Berlin blue with yellow lake or red
sienna. Green chromis oxide may be
used If it's sober, cool tone has no dis
turbing influence. Almost all brown
co1oring bodies give transparent col
ors, but the most useful are found to
be the madden lakes and burnt umber.
Gray is produced by mixing purple
tone colOrs with suitable brown, but a
gray color rarely occurs in transparent
prints. Liquid siccative has always to
be added to the colors, too much time
being otherwise required by the dry.
ing; after the latter has been accom-
plished, the paper is vanished on both
sides, for which purpose well-cover-
ing, quickly drying, colorless, and not
too thick varnish has to- be used, the
most important requisite of this article
being a sufficient elasticity to insure
against cracking or breaking when
bent.

Electrical Hair-Dressing Machines.

Electrical Hair-DressinE Machines.
The French are said to be equipping
their shaving and hair-cutting saloons
with complete sets of electrical appli-
ances. In Paris shop, recently fitted
up, hot water is obtained by passing
the stream of a hydrant through a
German-si1ver tube in a soapstone
case. The tubing is electrically heat
ed, SO that the water is nearly boil
ing when it passes out of the spigot.
The old heating-irons, which often
burned the hair, are no longer used for
curling. The electric curling irons
which have taken their place are safe
and sure, as they can be brought to
any temperature, which they will re-
tain Indefinitely. Scissors are out of
date, and the cutting of hair is now
done by clipping machines, the speed
OF which can be regulated to nicely
by the operator. Where it is desired
to SINCE the hair, the clipping machine
gives place to the electrically
platinum wire, which is passed across
the teeth of metallic comb. The
comb takes up certain quantity of the
hair, holding it for an instant; the
BARRIERS man presses a tiny button at
the end CT the comb, and there is an
influx of current which heats the wire.
AS the wire approaches red heat the
hair is burned off neatly and smoothly,
and it's ends are sealed up in the most
approved fashion.

FACTS ABOUT HEALTH

II Is Easy to Keep Well IT We Know
How Some of the Conditions Neoes-

The Importance of maintaining good
health is easily understood, and it is
really simple matter if we take cor
rect view of the conditions required.
In perfect health the stomach promptly
digests food. The blood is employed to
carry nourishment to the organs, nerves,
muscles and tissues which need it.
The first great essential for good health,
therefore, Is pure, rich blood. No medi-
cine has such record of cures as Hoods
Sarsaparilla and it is because it is the one
true blood purifier. Hundreds of people
are alive and well today who would have
