1t has been suggested that one Of the
reasons some women lose their hair is
that they wear it done up in one way
for years. No hair can stand such
treatment and live. If there is but one
way that the hair can be arranged in
a becoming manner, 1t will, of course,
have to be worn that way most of the
time, but between whiles it can be put
up q different way. The woman at
home ought to have no difficulty what
ever to arrange her HAY to relieve the
usual style. If she is in the habit of
wearing it on top of her head because
it suits her style best that way, then
as an offset and rest it might be worn
for few quiet hours coiled at the back
of the neck. 1t may not be pretty, but
it may save her from tile awful bald
spot.

A Singular Accident.

A singular accident recently occurred
at Lamport station, between Northamp-
ton and Market Marlborough, England.
A cab from a Northampton hotel was
being driven toward Marlborough when
the horse bolted and dashed into the
level crossing gates at Lamport sta
tion. One gate was knocked down, and
the horse and vehicle went on to the
line. An express train was within a
couple Of hundred yards and the driver
Of the cab, seeing this, by great effort
turned the horse on to the up platform.
The express swept by, and no sooner
had 1t done so than the horse and cab
fell from the platform on to the line.
The occupant was much cut by broken
glass, and the driver was found uncon-
scious under the smashed vehicle. The
train passed over the gate as 1t lay
across the rails and broke it to pieces.

A Famous Sewer Farm.

Pasadena. Cal, is a bustling Ameri-
can city which proves the possibility of
a well managed public service by main
tanning a ''sewer farm" of 300 acres,
one Of the largest known. The city
sewage is used both as fertilizer and as
irrigation medium.
Sixty acres are planted in English
walnuts, which is a good crop, though
rather slow, and alfalfa in large guam
titles has been used for the city's horses
and for sale. A herd of 100 pigs has
been raised. and the number is to be
increased to 300. They are fed on corn
and pumpkins raised on the farm.
The farm utilizes horses of the fire
and street departments that have be-
come too old for active city work, but
can do slower work. And not least of
the points" of the farm is that 1t
pays about $25,00O year profit, which
is almost So for each inhabitant of the
place

to hang from the top to bottom of the
stand, having it just escape the floor

Have a heading to this flounce and
tack it firmly in place with invisible
tacks.
A small pincushion fastened in one
corner of the shallow top tray adds to
the convenience of the piece of furni-
ture. The tray is to hold thread,
needles, thimbles, darners, darning
egg, etc. When not in actual use, they
us well as the articles to be repaired
may be stored away below the curtain
and be out Of dust and out of sight. A
small, pretty tidy may be thrown over
the top when the stand is not in use,
and papers or book will find a conven-
lent resting place there.-Farm and

Care of Shoes.

Women with small dress allowances
always find that their boot bill is a
somewhat heavy item in their eXpendi-
ture. They can reduce 1t by using
boot trees. These not only keep the
boots in shape and make them wear
longer, but they stretch out the leather
and prevent its forming deep creases
and then cracking. The same boots
should not be worn every day. 1t is
far better economy to have at least two
pairs in use and on taking off one pair
to put them on the trees to dry and
resume their proper shape.

FREELAND, Pa, JUNE 8, 1903.


In the canton of Freiburg, Switzer-
land, the curious custom prevails of
charging well to do prisoners 40 cents
a day for the expenses incurred by the
cantonal government in lodging and
feeding them. Ten years ago a rich
merchant was condemned to eight
years imprisonment, and at the outset
Of his term the authorities took from
him 81, 1913 to cover the cost of his I'M
willing sojourn behind the prison
walls. The criminal, however, effected
his escape on the first day Of his con-
f1nement and now, after ten years alb
sence, when all legal possibility of re-
claiming him has lapsed, he has re-
turned to his native place and has sued
the authorities for the return of the
money. Incredible as it sounds, the su-
preme court at Lausanne has returned
a verdict in the merchants favor on
the ground that the prison authorities
Of Freiburg are unable to prove that
they have rendered value for the mon
ey forcibly taken from him..

The Secret of Beauty ut Middle Age.

The woman of forty or thereabout,
whose great aim in life is to preserve
her figure and her complexion, not only
pays strictest attention to her bath,
gymnastics and massage, but she is
more careful as to what she eats than
any old Roman gladiator.
One society woman, who at forty five
is famous for her good looks and gener-
ally attractive and youthful appear
ance, never puts bit of bread in her
mouth. 1t might be rank poison for the
scant civility it receives at her hands.
Nor does a sweet of any kind, sort or
description ever pass her lips, nor an
ice, nor coffee, nor chocolate.
What does she eat? Beef, mutton
and all vegetables that grow above
ground, but of these she eats only spar
ingly, so fearful is milady of embon-
point, that foe to youthful appearance.

Strawberries and Suicide.

One of the most amusing discover
les" which has been made recently is
that Strawberries eaten out of season
are apt to make a person commit sui
eide. This theory has been advanced
by Clifford Howard of Washington,
who has made study of the matter.
Cases have been known in which un-
ripe berries have made people want to
commit suicide, but the real act has al
ways been some distance off Mr.. How
ard says that unripe strawberries pro-
duce mental depression, and then sui
eide is the next step.-New York Trib-

HOMEMADE WORK STAND.
Much More Useful Article Than the
Expensive Willow Affairs.

Expensive Willow Affairs.
Cup at mothers they have a little
work stand affair that, although home
made, is nice looking and handy. The
idea is illustrated by the drawing given
here. Materials needed, box about
1115 inches long, 0 wide and 9h deep.
A dovetailed baking powder box is
good for the purpose. Saw off piece
from the top of this box, having 1t IN
inches deep, and set into this bottom
from the lid of the box. This leaves
the outer measure the same. The four
legs are three-quarters of an inch
square and 21A inches long.
Fasten these to the main box, which
is now but 81 inches deep, two at
front, two at back, having the box bot
tom raised 3A inches from the floor.
Put the tray made from the lid and
piece sawed off from the box into the
top, having it even with the top of
legs. This leaves a space between 8
and 8 inches between the two parts of
stand. The nails must be short and
fastened by driving from the inside.
The legs and trays were entirely COW
cred with brown cambric. This may
be pasted on smoothly or fastened with
tiny tacks. Beside the lining put pock-
cts at either end, inside the lower tray
or box. OF some pretty flowered goods

The United States negro ranks four

guese are found to be the shortest. 1t
has always been proverbial among
nnatomists that blond nations are
greater than their darker neighbors.
This is due to the geological positions
of the blond races. They are charac-
teristic of the north and on account of
the lower degree of temperature are
induced to take more exercise, which
throws them more in the open air. At

HURRIED The WORK.
Peculiar Experience of Turkish
Literary Man.


Once upon time a certain Turkish
literary man living In Constantinople
arranged to translate for a daily news
paper novel, then popular in Eng
land. Each day he rendered d suffi-
Client part of it into the Turkish Ian
guage to fill the space reserved for it.
One day his peaceful home was enter
I'd by the police, who peremptorily ar
rested the man of letters and dragged
him off to prison. No explanation was
given for his arrest, the novel reflected
in no way against the politics of the
state, and he had broken no laws. He
was not even given time to bid fare
well to his family, but he was COM
manded to bring the work under trans
lation with him. Arrived at the prison,
he was given pleasant quarters, good
food and drink and sternly command
ed to complete his task. So for sew
eral days the frightened translator
worked arduously, says Town and
Country.
When the work was done, he was, to
his establishment, instantly liberated
and presented with a large sum of
money. Upon further inquiry as to
his treatment 1t was explained that
the sultan had become interested in the
story as it appeared from day to day
and was too impatient to wait for the
end. He wanted to read all the rest of
1t at once! Truly, there are certain
advantages in being a sultan.

The Newtown bee. (Newtown, Conn.) 1877-current, 1903-10-16

this week those nearer the Street can
get their premiums by calling on Vice
President Duncomhe at the Ncwtown
pOstoffice. The BEE hopes many of
our Newtown people will leave their
premiums with the association, thus
aiding the society in it's work.
In passing THE BEE desires to COM
mend the retiring president, Mr. Platt
for his splendid work for the associa-
ton. He has been a tireless worker,
and has done much to bring the fair
to its present successful position. 1t
is matter for congratulation that SO
far as bringing exhibits and helping
the fair in any way be can, be will con-
tinue to labor for the fairs success.
President Elect Robert G. Mitchell
is one of the most progressive and
wide awake of the business men of
SOuthbury, having been a director of
the Fair association frGm its orraniZa-
ton. In addition to looking after the
work on his fathers large farm, he
buys stock largely, and sells carriages
andiwagons, and writes fire insurance.
He is a genial gentleman, and of the
hustling, wide awake kind. He takes
a lively interest in the fair and is doing
his part to insure it's success. For sew
eral years he was first selectman in
Southbury, an unusual honor for a
young man. In 1900 he represented
his town in the Legislature.
