Underwear q. a PROTECTOR.

H y E L
The old idea that wool is the only
proper protection for the skin Is ex-
ploded. In my opinion the skin, to per-
form its functions normally needs but
little such protection, says Melville
Black, M. ID. In fact, the less the bet
ter. BY petting the skin and overpro-
tecting it with woolen underwear we
make 1t tender and representative. thus
rendering it unable to Withstand sud
den atmospheric changes without par
alysis Of some portion of its vasomoter
control. Hence the frequent catch
ing cold,' the bette noir of our exist
ence.
I To me 1t seemed Incredible that I
could cast aside my fannels and not
feel the chill of winters blast. My pat

that could not say when I was wear

Some are not to be convdnced.-no
amount of reasoning will convince them
that the conditions Of their skins is

A Ten,Year-Old Hero.

A ten year-old boy, whose legs We're
recently cut off by q train Of cars at
Dubuque, Iowa, was too plucky to
make any fuss over the accident. When
the little fellow was taken home his
legs hung limp, but he did not com
plain. Not tear stood in his eyes. but
the tender look he gave to those who
stood by his bedside told plainly that
he was suffering great agony. After
the doctor dressed his wounds. he
called his parents. sisters and brothers
to his bedside, kissed one and all fare
well and left tear upon their cheeks
A second time he called his mother to
his side, placed his little arms about
her neck and said: Mother. am 60

give me for not ninding YOU" With
this the boy fell back; and, as the
mother said, Yes, my angel" and took
another look at his face, she found him
dead and beyond ali pain and suffer

WAYS THAT ARE DARK.

She told me / looked pale" said
the serious-f faced girl on the car, "and
SO she took me upstairs and put come
rouge on my cheeks and sent me off
to the party feeling like an Easter egg.
She said I was lovely, however, and
I admit that I thought the embellish-
ment rather becoming when gazed
in the mirror at my pinky reflection.
But had a miserable time at Mary's.
/ had forgotten to ask my hostess
whether my complexion was fast
color or not, so when the rest bobbed
for apples in the most ridiculously un-
dignffied fashion, | was obliged to abb
stain for fear Of emerging many shades
whittier than when went in.
Also, though my face became very
warm from dancing, I did not dare to
pass my handkerchief over it, lest the
senseless linen absorb the rich, warm
bfoui that mantled my blushing
cheeks.

Portable in my life. I spent my time
endeavoring to catch surreptitious
glances Of myself in the many mirrors
that adorned the walls quotes the
Baltimore News "I was self-con--
scious and absorbed, and I've no doubt
every man there considered me a
brainless idiot.
When I got home | found my com-
plexion was intact. It hadn't rubbed
off in spots or done any OF the horri-
BILE things / expected it to; but it
looked to me dreadfully as II it had
come out Of a battle. 5s
This was my first experience with
.boughten' beauty, and it's going to be
my last," said the serious-faced girl,
emphatically. Up to this time have
pinched my cheeks when wanted
them flushed, but can't recommend
this method, either; 1t gives one such
a spotted look, quite as if spinal men-
