Health and Beauty Hints.

A bran bath, especially in the sum-
mer time, is delightful, softening and
cleansing the skin. To prepare the
bath, stir the bran into tubful of
warm water, or sew up bag of thin
material, like cheese cloth, fill with
the bran and use the bag for the wash
cloth.
Do not sleep in a room where the
on the eyes; if the room faces the east
a heavy green shade will keep out the
morning light and during moonlight
nights should also be kept down, as
moonlight falling directly on the eyes
is harmful.
Red and rough hands can be helped
and entirely cured by careful treat
ment. Do not wash them in either
very hot or very cold water; after
washing apply some soothing lotion
that has been found to agree with the
skin. Sleep in loose gloves at night
| and wear gloves when out Of doors.
The tartar that collects on the teeth
can be prevented by careful brushing
with a good tooth brush and powder
after each meal. Equal parts of pre-
cipitated chalk and powdered orris
root make a good tooth powder and
being free from any hard or gritty sub
stance, will not injure the enamel.
For developing and increasing the

with the weight on the balls of the
feet; raise the arms to the front al

SALT NoA' Of the box is joined to the
board by strap iron hinges, which are
hotter than leather. The end piece in
side the box, and next to the board
does not quite reach the board. and the
bottom of the box, being nailed to the
end piece, also does not reach the
board. Thus rain running down the
long board cannot get into the box and
soak the salt. The board Is nailed to
building, tree or fence wherever
wanted. The support in front is a
stake driven into the ground and fas-
tened with a nail to the projecting bot
tom Of the box. Animals soon learn
to open the cover and help themselves.
The cover closes by gravitation.-d. b.

The I1an of Sweat Pada.


The use of sweat pads under some
circumstances may be justified, espe-
cially when horses have started work
in the spring in good form and are re-
duced in flesh during the summer. One
Of the principal objections to the sweat
pad is that it tends to become soggy,
and consequently increases the friction
between, the surface of the pad and the
shoulder. 1t sometimes happens that
by the use Of the pad one can fit a COL
lar that could otherwise not be worn.
In this instance the price Of collar
may be saved. By the use of the pad
the draft Is often thrown on the outer
edge of the shoulders, while it should
be as close in as possible. When an
animal gets a sore spot on some part
of his shoulder it is sometimes possible
to cut a hole in the pad and thus re-
lieve the pressure ON this place until it
becomes healed. The main thing is to
have collar fit the shoulder we'll.
| Where this Is the case there Is seldom
| any danger of irritation, providing the
names are properly fitted to the collar
and pulled up tightly each time they
are put on. 1t never pays to work
away with a collar that does not fit,
because an animal that constantly eX'
petences pain through ill-ftting har
ness cannot do the same amount OF
work, nor do it as willingly, as would
be the case If all parts of the harness
are adjusted to it's form.-Iowa Home

Pennsylvania Republic anism.

Following is the tariff plank of the
Pennsylvania republican state conven-
ton, held at Harrisburg, May 81:
We reaffirm our answering loyalty
TO the republican principle of protec-
tive tariff and deprecate any suggestion
OF q general revision at the present time
Of the existing tariff law, enacted in
1897. Under its beneficent operation the
terrible conditions of poverty and dis
tress existing under the last democrat
national administration have been
changed by the magician's wand and
we are now in the enjoyment of I'M
paralleled prosperity. Capital and Ia
Dor are both remuneratively employed,
our home market has largely increased,
and we have secured our fair share of
the markets of the world, with the
promise of still further conquests
therein.
Since its enactment we have conduct
ed an expensive war with Spain and
paid its cost. Within the past three
years congress has reduced taxation to
the amount of $115, 1000, 900 per annum,
All yet the national treasury today is
richer by $4,000, 900 than it was before
the war begun. We believe it to be
the dictates of wisdom to let well
enough alone, and not to imperil bust
ness interests by any suggestion of pres
emit Interference with revenue legisla-
ton. Permanence and stability of tariff
rates are essential to continued business
prosperity.
This reads like straight, sound, sensii
BILE, solid republcanism. Under the
conditions of phenomenal prosperity
cited in the resolution the obviously
level-headed thing to do is to let the
tariff alone, entirely alone. Penn
sylvania republicans do not want
any suggestions, even of pres
ont interference with revenue legisla-
ton" They do not want the tariff
touched or tempered with in any shape
or fashion. That means a great deal.
1t means tariff tinkering by treaty as
well as by direct legislative action.

and the editor is Mr., w. J. Hunsaker
managing editor of the Detroit Journal
during the years in which it was grow
ing to the prominent position it has held
for the last few years, From news
standpoint the Courier Herald has the
the advantage over the Detroit papers
from the fact that it does not have to
:. close its forms SO early in the night as
the Detroit morning papers do. This
may seem of no Importance but many
times it means a whole day saved in the

news which came in on the wires just
too late for the Detroit papers. but still
In time for this Saginaw journal In
the course of years time this item
alone amounts to great advantage to
its subscribers about the state. In its
state items the events of Michigan are
well cared for each day while the purely
local field and the adjoining counties
are especially well taken care Of Polit-
ically the paper is staunch republican

of the isms which recent leaders of the
national democracy have thought so
necessary to the success of their party
but which have been repeatedly so
thoroughly repudiated by the people
This does not mean that it is so rabid
that 1t cannot give fair treatment to the
party of the opposition or that it does
not remember that "a large part of its
subscribers are made up from the party
which it opposes attracted by its sterl-
ing qualities in other matters. It's demo-
cratic subscribers feel as satisfied of fair
treatment. so far as the real principles
Of their party are concerned, as do
its other subscribers many of whom are

it is a paper which would be credit to
any city, although it is published at a
price which is far less than that at
which it's competitors from the larger

Gently taken up the question of extend
ing the advantages of daily paper to a
much greater degree along the rural
delivery routes of the'state, and in par
ticular of the counties adjoining Sagi-
nav county. For that purpose, and be-
cause the free rural delivery releases
the paper from the burden of a carrier
service or an insufficient post Office SER
vice, and thus materially aids in the re-
duction of the cost of the same, it has
recently made a special price to the
patrons of these routes of two dollars
for the daily for year. With a daily
paper of the stamp of the Saginaw
Courier Herald available by the farmers
of the state at price of only two dollars
per year there is less excuse for the
farmer to be uniformed than for the
man who lives in the city. THE TINES
predicts that the Saginaw Courier.
Herald will experience healthy boom
IN its subscription list and hopes that it
will. 1t is one of the papers which de-
serve to have such an experience.
