siliceous rock Quartz, three parts
broken marble and sandstone, also
two parts of burned porcelain clay,
with two parts freshly slaked lime,
still warm. In this way a wash is
made which forms a silicate if often
wetted and becomes after a time al
most like stone. The four constitu-
ents mixed together give the ground
color, to which any pigment that can
be used with lime is added. 1t is
applied quite thickly to the wall or
other surface, and left to dry one
day, and the next day is frequently
covered with water, which makes it
waterproof. This wash can be
cleansed with water without losing
any of it's color; on the contrary.
each time it gets harder, so that it
can even be brushed, while its porosi-
ty makes it look soft. The wash or
calcimine can be used for ordinary
purposes as well as for the finest
painting. A so-called fresco surface
can be prepared with it in the dry
way. For useful lime wash for
wood and stone, the following is a
good preparation: Twenty quarts
quicklime are slaked in a suitable
vessel with as much hot water as
will stand at level of six inches
above the lime. The milk of lime is
diluted, and first Is grains of sui
phate of zinc and then seven grains
of common salt are added. The lat
ter causes the lime wash to harden
without cracking. A beautiful cream
color can be impaired to the mass
by putting into it seven grains of
yellow ochre, or a pearly tint by the
addition of some lampblack A fawn
color is produced by two grains of
umber and seven grains of lamp

LATEST CHICAGO FAD.
II Is Called the Dew Bath and Its De-
voices Claim That 1t Improves
the Complexion.

Chicago has a new fad which for
genuine novelty and originality seems
likely to stand unrivaled in a little
class of its own for some time to come.
In years gone by Chicago has imported
most of its really successful fads from
the east and across the Atlantic, but
this one grew and blossomed on ma
tive Illinois soil and $ soon as society
gives it vogue it is sure to leap into in
Simultaneous popularity, for society's
approval is all that is necessary to the
success of fad.
This absolutely new thing in fads is
the morning dew bath for the COM
pleXion and it threatens to outclass
even the beauty doctors themselves.
Some morning, if you happen to be up
in time to commune with the sun as il
slips up across the lake, and, looking
over your back fence you behold a wom-
an, young or old, kneeling in the center
of grass plot with her face in close
proximity to the earth, don't call the
police. This is the fad. As a COM
pleXion producer it is said to surpass
III NAAN M ~ INV y " mn u
duced, and the best thing about the new
complexion producer is that it is cas-
lily within the reach of every woman,
who can find grass plot large enough
to envelop her face.
These morning dew baths for the COM
pleXion were something of a secret I'M
til recently. The idea was such cap
ital and original one that those who
made the unique discovery that green
grass, freshened by morning dew, con-
tains the skin invigorating ingredients
for which the beauty doctors charge
money, held their tongue with consid-
cradle persistency. But the truth
leaked out down in Elgin, Ill. Miss
Evangeline Brusk, young woman re-
siding in that place, has enjoyed some
local fame on account of the beauty
of her complexion. Indeed, she has
been the envy of her friends on account
of this supposedly rich gift of nature.
The expose, however, came one morn
Ing not long ago, when a neighbor arose

LIFE OF FENCE POSTS.
BY Simple Process of saturation by
Lime 1t May Be Prolonged for
Several Years.

In many sections of the country
where timber is scarce the question
of fence posts is a serious one. In
timberless regions where soft woods
are grown for the purpose, about
four years apparently ends the use
fulness of post that is cut and
set in the usual way. If well sea-
sOned before setting, another year
or two may be added, but the post
problem is very unsatisfactory
The posts may be doubled or more.
IN durability by a simple process of
saturation by lime. A pit is dug
three feet deep, and three inches of
fresh quicklime is spread on the bot
tom; the posts, already pointed for
driving, are set on end in the pit
close together, with as much lime
scattered among them as is posi-
ble-up to the level of the ground.
A ridge of earth is raised around the
stack of posts. and water is poured
upon the lime, to slack it. The
stacking of lime causes considerable
heat, by which the moisture of the
timber is driven out by the expan-
sion. The cooling of the posts and
lime, after the Stacking is over (care
being taken to make the lime suf--
ficiently liquid causes the timber to
absorb moisture again, and thus the
liquid lime is absorbed by the wood,
the acid of which is thus neutral
lied; as it is this acid which causes
the otherwise rapid decay of the
timber, the destruction of it by the
lime avoids this effect, and the tim
Der is very much increased in dura-
bility To get the best results the
posts should be seasoned If they
are laid down in the trench the
whole post will benefit by the treat

ILL-MANNERED COWS.
Many Animals Are Made Cross and
UnruIy by the Men Who Have
Care of Them.

Many cows are made cross and I'M
ruly by the men who have the care of
them. Take almost any nervous, high
strung cow and place her under the
care of ill-tempered, impatient men,
and the result is not difficult to fore
see. 1t will be only little while be-
fore we will have a kicking cow. And
one kicking COW in a herd will do more
to destroy the value of the dairy than
can be estimated. This loss will not
only be with the kicking COW herself,
but with all the rest of the herd; for
it cannot be disputed that the temper
of all will be aroused by the actions of
the one which is really unruly, and
of her master. Anything that dis
turbs the quiet of the dairy has a di-
rect effect on the yield of milk, and
its worth in dollars and cents. The
kicking COW will kick more value out
of the miIkpail than we can feed in
from the meal barrel
But why have kicking cows? What
is the use of having such times as are
often witnessed in the stable when

light footed. Before milking her mas

Shouts of anger. mingled with heavy
blows, and a general stirring up of
the animals all over the barn, ensued
1t was a shame.
The incorrigible kicker might as well
go to the butcher shop first as last. 1t
would be money in the pocket of her
owner, even though she were the best
COW in the barn. Then her progeny
should also be weeded out, for it is
fact that kicking cows leave their
mark on their calves. Sometimes by
taking the heifers from such cows and
treating them kindly, as all heifers
should be treated, one may succeed in
training them to stand nicely. As a
rule, we do not have patience enough
with our heifers when teaching them
to be MIXED. No cross, impatient man
should ever try to break a heifer or
teach a calf to drink. 1t is waste
of temper in the man and risk of
spelling the COW. The most nervous
COW may be controlled by uniformly
kind speaking and handling, 1t pays

TO WAS HCALICOES.
Some Timely Pointers on How to Set
the COIOrs and How to Brighten
the Hues,

Calicoes, before they are put in
water, should have the grease spots
rubbed out as they cannot be seen
when the garment is wet. They
should not be washed in very hot
suds, mildly warm water will do even
better and will not extract the col
ors. Soft soap should never be lied
for calicoes excepting for the various
buff and yellow goods. The majority
of calicoes should be rinsed in fair
water and dried in the shade. Pale
pink and pale blue would be bleached
to white if left in the sun to dry.
Colors can be set by washing the
goods in lukewarm water with beef's
gall in the proportion of a teacup-
ful to four gallons of water Rinse
IN ram water-no soap being neces-
sary unless the clothes are very
dirty. The beef's gall can be kept
several months by squeezing it out
of the skin in which it is incased;
add salt, bottle it and cork tight.
Soap must never be rubbed on calico
or lawns; lukewarm sSapsuds is used
for more soiled goods.
Black calicoes can be laundered in
water in which potatoes have been
boiled. A family in mourning, where
several ladies wear sheer black
waists, orders all the water in which
potatoes have been boiled to be saved
to launder the black dresses, pure
clstern water serving for rinsing.
Potato water boiled down to a con-
sistence stiffens black goods instead
of starch, as the latter would show
in spots.
A little vinegar in the rinsing
water for pink, red and green cali
Goes is good to brighten the colors
and keep them from mixing

early to catch train out of Elgin. He
lives next door to the Brusk home, and
as he was passing down the, back steps
he was considerably surprised to see
the young woman crouching on the
lawn and gesticulating in unseemly
fashion as though saluting the sun.
She would run her hands across the
grass, and then bury her face in them
nd go through all the motions of wash
ing. 1t was a new one on the Elgin
nan, because he wasn't up in dew baths.
His curiosity was aroused to the point
of investigation, so he crossed the lawn
noiselessly and, walking up behind the
intently occupied young woman, he
surprised her with question.
Such interruption was objectionable.
Without replying, the young woman
jumped to her feet and fed to the
house. But this was enough. for it
was in reality the beginning of this new
beauty fad, which seems likely to Guido
anything i'll the way of novelty for
women's faces that ever has been i'm
ported even from Paris, New York or
London.
There really is nothing to the dew
complexion bath but dew and grass.
yet in addition to it's complexion-giv-
ing properties the early morning con-
tact with nature is said to be eXhilar-
ating. In the first place, to derive the
full benefits a young woman must be
up and out before the world is astir,
as dew will not wait for her to finish
a morning nap. This in itself is one
step in the direction of a good com
plexion, and when a dip in the cool.
refreshing grass is taken into consid-
GRAFTON along with this first natural
consequence, it appears that there is
more to the dew bath than is evident.
But it isn't a big hit with the beauty
doctors and complexion specialists.
Physicians, however, being less direct
ly interested in the abstract question
of complexion, are non-committal.
81 wouldn't like to commit myself
for fear of mourning the ill-will of the
women" said one doctor. "If some
young woman has found that a dew
bath in the early morning air improved
her complexion she ought to know
what she is talking about. At least l
wouldn't care to contradict her with
out first having given myself over to
an investigation. Grass naturally alb
serbs, through its roots, many Of the
natural properties OF the earth. And,
as every one knows, dew falls on grass,
so it may be that there is something
beneficial in this combination. Who
knows? l, for one, wouldn't like to
say."-Chicago Tribune.

ings, not even aware of the words she
has chosen, her eyes turned upward
with a rapt expression, while all who
hear her are dominated and thrilled
by the power and sweetness of her
music. In the wards of the hospital
the sick listen as if they were hear
ing celestial singing, and to those
who are not fatally i'll, it brings
strength and repOse, like an electric
current. Physicians have declared
the effect to be hypnotic, and have
themselves listened spellbound to the
inspired strains.
The singer does not improvise
words or music, but uses the familiar
hymns, Nearer, My God, to Thee"
and Zone Sweetly Solemn Thought"
or others as popular and well known.
Her voice is a sympathetic contralto
of great sweetness, and she had it
cultivated in her youth for choir sing
ing.
In her home in Carthage, Miss, she
first gave up fashionable pursuits and
found her happiness in smoothing the
way to another life by her magnetism
of song. The knowledge that her
voice would have made her famous
among the worlds vocalists has never
disturbed this singularly gifted wom-
an; she gave it free to the helpless.
Mrs. Schworz has charming per-
sonality and is highly esteemed by
her friends as the possessor of many
Christian virtues. Only two other
women have essayed the role in which
she is so proficient, Mrs. Augusta Ev-
ans Wilson, the southern novelist, and
Emma Abbot, who a few days before
her own death sung ''The Last Rose
of Summer" for a dying man. 1t is
only the fortitude and unselfishness
of those brave singers that enables
them to reach that high climax on
the borders of another world.
