Any well-cooked dish, however plain,

garnish applied.
Often, too, exactly the right dress

the housekeeper has sufficient judy

For a dish of lobster salad theIe
are lobster claws, lobster coral, cress,
and, for all salads, radishes and beets
cut into flowers, curled celery and Gel

innate, as the margin was large enough
to insure against loss. But with the in
creasiqg demand and scarcity of timber
the buyer is compelled to estimate more
closely and runs correspondingly
greater risk of loss. 1t is an impossible
ity to measure each tree in tract, and
so the intending purchaser has learned
to gauge with his eye the number of feet
of lumber available for selling after he
has manufactured it into boards, planks
and timber. To insure greater accuracy
In the work Of estimating the instrument
shown in use in the picture has been
invented by western man. With it q
person can gauge almost exactly tho
contents of the trunk of tree up to any
height. In sighting through the tube
the estimator stands back from the tree
far enough to just include it's diameter
at the desired height. when the reading
of the graduated arc will show the con-
tents of the tree. The arc is pivoted and
held vertically by the weight attached
below, causing it to indicate different
amounts as the estimating gauge is ele-
waited or depressed.-N. o. Times Demo-

PUTTING ON A BANDAGE.

after being soiled. Have also some
absorbent cotton and few pieces of
cloth about II inches square. " ~
An antiseptic is solution which
kills germs, and germs are the cause
of a large part of the Doctors trou-
BILE. Probably the best all round anti
septic is carbolic acid. Get the
strong carbolic and use a teaspoonful
of this in a quart of warm water. This
is safe strength for any part of
the body except the eye. If by &C
cident any of the strong acid is spilled
on the hand, put pure alcohol on the
place at once. This neutralizes the
action of the acid. Another safe and
clean antiseptic is creoline. This is
a dark liquid with a tarry odor. A
tablespoonful in quart of warm wa
ter makes milky solution, which is
excellent for cleansing wounds. An
antiseptic wash for the eye may be
made by dissolving boracic acid,
white powder, in warm water Even
a strong solution of this is not harm
full
No matter how small a cut or
bruise may be, it is always best to
thoroughly cleanse and bandage it.
Many a limb and many life has
been sacrificed to the most innocent
looking little wounds. To dress an
ordinary small wound, proceed as fol-
lows: Make up a solution of car
bolic acid or creolin, a teaspoonful to
a quart Of warm water, and using
some absorbent cotton, wash the
wound thoroughly with the antiseptic,
taking care that it penetrates every
part, and that all dirt Is washed out,
If it be hand or finger, the part
may be soaked in the solution for q
few minutes. This will often stop
most of the bleeding. Soak a piece
of the clean cloth in the solution,
squeeze it fairly dry and wrap it
around the injured part, using three
or four layers. Select a bandage of
suitable width and apply it neatly, US
ing plenty to cover. Fasten the ban
dage by sewing or pinning with a
safety pin, or, when sufficient is
wound on, roll of few inches more,
rip it down the middle, cross the two
ends so made, and use them as strings
to tie on the bandage. If there is
much bleeding, it may be necessary to
put on some dry absorbent cotton over
the moist cloth, applying the ban
dage over all. The next day the wound
may be dressed by simply washing
and wrapping with dry bandage only.

support at the ninth month and walks at
the age of Is months.
AT this period he also laughs, smiles,
gives a kiss, repeats syllables and I'M
derstands q number of words. From the
twentieth to the twenty-fourth month
he executes orders on command, tries to
sing, beat time and dance to music. At
the age of three the child walks upstairs
unaided and speaks distinctly. He be-
gins to ask questions.
"The sub-normal child has not devel-
oped in this way. He is Different say
the parents. That sums up the whole
situation-he is different from normal"
According to available statistics, says
DR.. Bryson, there are two feeble-minded
persons to every thousand inhabitants,
and to every 500 there are five or six chill
dren not capable of being educated by
the ordinary methods of instruction.
Predetermined children, she adds, are
generally fond of music, "can often sing,
even when unable to talk, can play on
some musical instrument alone or with
Others" For such she recommends spe-
cial physical exercises, which tend to
awaken the creative faculties of the
mind.
The symptoms of the sub-normal
mind cannot be classified, from the very
nature of things, as are the actions of a
normal child. What constitutes
backward, or deficient, child?" asks DR..
Bryson. How can you tell one wien
you see one? Not in an offhand way;
yet there is something that stamps the
child as different from his fellows. The
lack of command over h.rsse1f suggests
illness to the inexperienced. Some, per-
haps many, of the stigmata of degenera-
ton may be present, physical signs of
imperfection, that lead the observer to
infer the quality of the individuals The
roof of the mouth may be. high and mar
row, the teeth irregular and misshapen,
the lobe of the ear attached 10 the side
of the head, the arms too long in pro-
portion to bodily height, or the hands
and feet may show abnormalities of
structure. i
AT the same time, it must be remem-
bered that it is not how child looks that
Classics him. but what he does, what
he is, what he loves and seeks.'

This Article Tells You Just What d
- = to Be Done Before tho Sur
rr geon Arrives,

There are few things which should
be in every house where any persons
are in any way liable to injury. Chief
among these are one or more bottles
of some antiseptic solution. and band
ages, ready for use. Sometimes the
simplest precautions before the ar
rival of the doctor will save q limb
or hand or perhaps life, and aid the
physician to an untold extent.
Orange Judd Farmer says that ban
dages may be made from an old sheet,
bleached cloth being preferred. First,
it should be clean. Taking the whole
length of the sheet, usually at least
two yards, tear it into strips of the
following widths: one inch, one and
one-half, two, two and one-half, three
and four inches, having two or three
of each. The narrow bandages are
most useful, and it is well to make
several Of these. Now make a tight
roll of each strip, or put two of the
same width in one roll. Put them
aside in a box out of the dust. You
will be surprised how many service
able roller bandages can be made from
an old sheet They may also, be
boiled, washed and ironed out for use

The Barrier
By NELLIE CRAvEY GILMORE
Copyright, 1901, by Daily Story Pub. Col

INTELLIGENT DREXEL never could
Iv have told how long she had sat
staring dumbly at one Of the four walls
of her room, had not servant entered
with tea and waters and announced that
dinner would be served in half an hour.
She rose stifay and, leaving the re-
freshment untouched, crossed with list
less feet to one of the deep, curtained
windows that stood open to entice every
chance breath of wind from the river
below.
Her face, smooth, transparent, clear
as cameo, looked almost CHASTITY in the
waning afternoon light. Into its ex-
preston of hitherto unrufled sweetness
and calm had crept despairingness
whose climax seemed to stand invul-
nerable against all further mortal suf-
fering.
Pale shafts of dying sunlight slipped
insiduously into the darkened room,
lighting it with sort of golden dim
ness.
Minutes passed, and presently a
cuckoo clock struck shrill warning of
the passage of time. Mrs. Drexel
caught her breath and turned mechan-
ically toward her dressing table. She
made her toilet absently, but with the
same strict regard for personal adorn-
ment that was part of herself.
Fifteen minutes later, when she went
downstairs to dinner, Allison had al
ready arrived. II received your note"

WHEN IS A BABY NORMAL?
Medical Expert Tells How 4 Mother
Can Answer the Question
Beyond 4 Doubt.

When Q person first becomes a parent
he or she watches the little new
born creature with the most intense
anxiety. The fear sometimes haunts
the parent that perhaps the babe is not
mentally perfect. The father tries to
solve the problem, but his mind has
nothing to hold to, nothing to guide 1t
to a conclusion. A few glances may tell
that the baby's body has all the outward
evidences of being normal, but the par
ents' endeavors to understand the slow
ly-awakening mind prove futile. "How
much greater would be my JOY" a
mother often says to herself, IF knew
that my babys brain is as it should be-"
According to some experts, however
this suspense is needless. They declare
that the mind of a baby is normal if the
child is able to do certain things at GER
tain ages. It is only when the baby acts
differently that fear may we'll seize the
mothers heart, fear that her babe may
be foolish, that only its animal nature
will grow, while the mind remains
dwarfed, sluggish, in sort Of continual
twilight.
According to specialists, the mental
symptoms Of the baby may even be re-
luced to a catalogue. "A normal
child" says DR.. Louise Fiske Bryson, in
the Medical Critic, lis sensitive to light
when day or two old, starts when
gently touched at the third day, tastes
at the end Of the first week, and strong
doors cause contortions during the
first hours of life. Food, bath,
objects about him, please him dur
ing the first month; tears over
take the baby when three weeks old, and
smiles come shortly after. Music
charms during the second month; then
consonants are used for the first tine;
tickling causes laughter, and objects can
be sclaspedgw with four myers At four
months the baby begins to initiate; sits
up at the1sixth month; stands without

BIG CONCRETE STRUCTURE
Building in Cincinnati, Of the Sky.
scraper Variety, Erected Ae-
. ~ cording to New idea. o. y,

A conspicuous example Of a new de-
parture in the construction of tall build
ings is furnished by a just completed
structure in Cincinnati. The dimensions
are of sufficient magnitude to make the
test q thorough one. The building is on
corner lot 50x10O feet and its height is
21O feet above the sidewalk, while the
basement goes IL feet lower in one part
and where the power is located, 20 feet.
The material Of the edif1ce is almost en-
tirely concrete, reinforced with twisted
rods of steel, which serve to take up the
tensile strain, the concrete being intend
ed to resist only the strains of compress
sion. This is rather bold advance
along the line of a new idea, which, how
ever, has had some partial and favorable
tests in other places, notably in the or
deal of the Baltimore fire.
There has not been, however, in the
Cincinnati building complete disre-
gard of the conventionalities of the sky
scraper of the steel and stone type which
has received such wide exploitation in
our large cities during the past dozen or
Is years, and veneering of marble with
glazed brick and terra Gotta ornamental
ton conceals the novel characteristics
Of the structure This was because the
owners or architects hardly had the
complete courage Of their convictions,
and perhaps did not wish to advertise
too conspicuously their disregard Of
precedents and prevailing methods. The
employment Of material in the work is as
follows: The concrete is made of high
grade Portland cement with clean sand
of various sized grains and crushed
stone It is made semifluid by mixing
with water thus insuring adhesion to
the twisted steel bars. Wind bracing
has been carefully looked after. The
building in question has COMPOUNDED the
prophets of disaster; who predicted that
it would never reach the height pre-
scribed in the plans, or If it did, it would
disintegrate, and fall to pieces by shrink
age cracks.
