At St. AIMS Hospital is Being
Fixed Up.
BE MADE MORE BEAUTIFUL
Decorators Are at Work and in Short
Time Will Have It One Of the
Finest in the State.

The chapel at St. AIMS hospital, winch
was always considered one of the most
beautiful and attractive in Anaconda" IS
heing made more beautiful and when
completed will surpass anything in the
way of beautiful churches and chapels IN
the state. Since the annex to the hospital
was constructed the latter part of last
year, the many beautiful ard elegantly
furnished rooms therSin n esp ecia ~ he
operating room, had a tendency to make
the chapel in the old part of the building
more common in the matter of Its walls
and ceiling. The sisters, who a and
night watch and nurse the sick, demve
their only comfort through prayer In
their religious life they have embraced,
and, therefore,, spend their spare mo-
ments in their chapel the same as other
women do in a sitting room or parlor. To
this cam be attributed their desire to have
the chapel surpass any room in the build
ing. A short time ago there came to the
city Mr.. Schmidt, representing the AS
ISOLATED Artists OF Milwaukee, who secur-
ed the contract for decorating the inter-
Tor walls of the new Deer Lodge county
court house. Mother Dominica secured
his services and he now has his full force
OF artists at Work decorating the interior
of the chapel. The ceiling and walls are
being frescoed in what IS known as an
antique design, with a wainscoting Of
imitation of marble, which has the ap-
pearance Of being the most antique of adj.
The ceiling of the chapel is flat, but the
artist who designed the squares, points
and figures Of the fresco work has given
1t the appearance of being on a circle.
The colors ON the walls and ceiling of the
chapel border ON gray, while the sane
tuary walls Inc ceiling are a deep sky
blue. Although the work is but we'll COM
merlced, enough can be seen to prove that
it will be a class of work which the city
could not boast of before. A well-known
mechanic said this morning it was as
far ahead of the frescoing on the Mar
garet theater, as the latter was ahead Of
Whltewashed walls,

sUpERsTITIoNs OF BARRIERS.

There is quite as much good as bad
luck to be encountered.
1t is considered very bad luck to see
hunehbaek in the mirror standing or
passing back of one. This omen is said
to foretell death in the family.
You cannot be too careful about hav.
ing your chin shaved before the mus
tache. If you persist in having the
upper lip shaved first you will never, ii
is said, be able to raise good beard.
A very bod omen is to have the towel
about the neck drop out before one is
shaved. This catastrophe indicates
that one will be cut soon by barber's
carelessness.
Very good luck is invited by the man
who has his shoes polished at the same
time he is being shaved. 1t may be due
partly to this superstition that this
time-saving device is becoming pop
ular.
1t is a very common belief that for
barber to lather the face with sim
gle up stroke of the brush inevitably
brings bad luck. Many people will
sharply abuse barber who makes this
mistake.
To be shaved by red-headed barber,
is believed by many to be sure cure
for rheumatism. There are several red
headed BARRIERS in New York who have
kept customers for long time on the
strength of this superstition.
tits comforting to remember tht to be
accidentally cut twice on the same side
of the face in one shaving will insure
good luck for some time. Should this
be done Intentionally, however, the
charm is completely lost.
1t is well to remember that if one con.
tinually sits with legs crossed in the
barber shop the hair is likely to come
out early in life, making man prema-
turely bald. The habit, which is COM
mon one, should therefore be re-
formed before it is too late.
A very dangerous practice is the not
common one of using several razors for
single shave. Two razors are allow.
able, but to use more than two even
for moment is said to bring very bad
luck. A barber will sometimes try q
razor, and if he does not find it sharp
enough pick up another and change to a
third in finishing.
