The texture of the skin is likewisS
sunburn. One should, therefore, avoid
it as much as possible. 1t is not as
difficult to do this as you would think.
In the first place, before going forth
on any adventure in which you are
likely to get sunburned, take the pre-
caution to oil the face with cold cream
or pure white vaseline. or if that IS
too sticky, with white vaseline and
almond oil, equal parts, and then us1
some good reliable powder. If you do
as it acts as a mask to protect the
skin. Avoid as far as possible the re-
Election Of the sun upon glazing sand
or water. This burns more quickly
than anything else.
The great temptation after the ex.
posture to the heat and the probabili-
ties of sunburn is to wash the face.
Water acts like mordant to set the
dye of sunburn. The skin that might
have possibly escaped with faint red
ness becomes scarlet and even blister.
ed after washing, while the sun is
still upon it or after just returning
from an exposing expedition. Wipe
the face gently with some oily prepa'
ration and use powder that is sooth-
ing and the effects of the sunburn
will shortly pass away.-Dr. Grace
Peckham Murray, in Harper's Bazaar.

Cooking Onions.

There are many ways of preparing
onions, and one Of the best known
ways is plain boiled" If the water
be changed once or twice while cook
ing, they will be more delicate, and
they must be thoroughly tender all
through. Be sure to drain we'll, sea-
son with salt and pepper and add plen-
ty of sweet butter.
AS a change a cream sauce may be
poured over them just before serving,
but one would tire of this method if
repeated too often. Or, after being
boiled until tender, they may be put
into a buttered baking dish, busted
with salt and pepper, a teaspoonful
of butter in the center of each onion,
covered with bread crumbs and baked
slowly one hour. They may then be
served plain or with a cream sauce.
The large Spanish onion is particu-
larly nice for slicing raw, and if served
with a little oil and vinegar, makes
good salad. Onions are indispen-
sable as a seasoning for soups, and
in many cases if they are sliced and
fried brown in a little butter before
adding them to the soup stock, the fla
vor is greatly improved

Tatalism of Swiss Guide%S

The point of view of the Swiss
guides is a singularly complex one.
The ordinary guide is as brave as a
Boer and his bravery has many Of the
same peculiarities. He has little sense
of sport; he is ever conscious of the
desperate danger of his calling, and,
while he is willing and anxious to
meet any risk which comes in the nee
essary course of events, he has the
greatest contempt for the man who
seeks the bright eyes of dangers for
their own sake. He is bit of a ia
talist. "See," said one, as some trav-
elers brought down the body of party
who had died in place as simple as
a city street, death can come as east
ly on a light mountain as difficult
one" And again, when the French
guides bungled at their tasks: Those
Arolla men know nothing of accidents
for me. when a man is once dead
will carry him as soon as sheep,
and so saying he put one of the things
on his head and strobe down into the
valley where the mules waited for their
burden. A guide of experience will
tell you there are only three dangers in
mountaineering-falling stones, sud
den bad weather and the tourist.

DEAR HEART.

Dear heart, where hast thou wandered
What happier regions stay ..
Thy lingering feet, whose coming changed
My winter into May?
Now all our slopes are burgeoned
In summers lavish mood,
And deep within the grove the thrush
Has belled the solitude.
The laurels set the hillside
With many spectral light:
Seen through the dusk, they stand ike
nymphs,
Expectancy liz flight.
But somewhere thou dost linger,
Implacable. afar,
Though high within the twilight sky
Cleans cold our trysting-star
The brooks we loved still murmur,
Though now through dells of gloom;
The very hills have lost with thee
Their moiety of bloom.
Still, each leaf whispers of thee;
In every path once trod
BY thy dear feet, thy spirit yet
Speaks from remembered sod.

Superstition In Yucatan.

"Apropos of the wonderful ancient
ruins in Yucatan," said New Orleans
college professor, there is one very
fortunate circumstance which has pro-
tected them almost entirely from spoil
alton by the Indians. 1t is currently
believed by the natives all through that
part of the country that the ruins are
haunted and that devils will carry
away anybody who attempts to modest
them. This superstition has been en-.
couraged by explorers, and is better
safeguard than a picket of soldiers"

Look Out for the Unused House.

About this time when people are
f1ocking home from the country look
out for typhoid fever, diphtheria and
the protean forms of malaria" These
troubles will be developed after peo-
pie have returned to their city homes.
Many will say they were acquired in
the country. AS matter of fact, they
are far more likely to originate in the
city house, which has been shut up
for weeks or months, with dust and
darkness in the rooms and with sewer
gas pouring in through traps from
which the water seal long ago evapo-
rated. Innumerable cases of illness
would be prevented by taking the
reasonable precaution of setting the
water to flowing, ventilating all the
rooms, and using some simple disin-
fectants before the house is reoccu-
pied.-New York Tribune

classes affect to despise it, counting it among
the things that vulgar. Much that is best
IN the literature of the country is thus slipping
from the ken of the peOple-from ignorance of
their own tongue! Even the best words and
idioms of Burns are fast ceasing to be current

All this may not appear strictly to the point
